[HotelBravoLima] CPTANT - deletes console to prevent recall

[CPTANT]

CPTANT- Sam Lineman
admin: HotelBravoLima
time: 01:30 GMT+1

I was a traitor engineer and I had just released the sing, cause everyone instantly goes SINGLOOSE SHUTTLE CALL, I stole a comms board and build a console in maint to let it do some more damage. I recall the shuttle once at around 40(?) minutes (sing was eating medbay/science). Station is now on red and I go back to recall another time and right after I recall the console and the entire room I am in gets deleted. Apparently HotelBravoLima had tried to delete the console to prevent the recall. After that on top centcom announces how much of a cocksucker I am and should be lynched (which is fine). Apparently recalling once as an antag with a loose sing is excessive. Because apparently 2 hour long lowpop rounds in which nothing happens is fine, but me prolonging the round a bit to let the sing do some damage requires OOC deletion after 1 recall.

ultimate Shift Duration was: 0:57:57

I can understand you don't want chainrecalling, but outright trying to delete consoles after 1 recall without any warning or communication simply because you don't like it being recalled is just shit.

Spoiler:

OOC: CPTANT: deleting the console cause I recalled twice was fucking lame
OOC: HotelBravoLima: No, recalling twice was lame.
OOC: Aloraydrel: >recalling the shuttle when half the station is already eaten
OOC: Shaps: no one wants to sit around and watch you murderbone for another half hour
OOC: CPTANT: I was the fucking traitor
OOC: CPTANT: of course I want people eaten
DEAD: Phoebe Prevatt says, "I'm still gonna metagrudge the shit out of you greytider"
OOC: HotelBravoLima: You don't get the right to hold literally everyone in the server hostage for your jollies
OOC: HotelBravoLima: antag no
OOC: Shaps: I don't care if it wasn't actually greytider I'm still metagruding him
OOC: ExcessiveUseOfCobby: you know it's bad if Phoebe Medbay Prevatt is going to metagrudge you
OOC: Fragnostic: it seems acceptable though, antags are exempt from rule 1
OOC: CPTANT: but yeah thanks for forcing your opinion on people by abusing your admin power
OOC: Shaps: cptant, no one wants to watch you do nothing for half an hour
OOC: HotelBravoLima: Except it's everyones opinion CP
OOC: Keyblock: CPTANT, Look at rule 0
OOC: Keyblock: Rule 0: Don't be a dick
OOC: HotelBravoLima: also that
OOC: Shaps: everyone's backing up HBL on this
OOC: Newfren: rule 1 is don't be a dick
OOC: Newfren: rule 0 is get fucked admins do what they want
OOC: Eredale: Chainrecalling = you are a colossal doublefaggot
OOC: CPTANT: releasing the sing and delaying the shuttle call is now rule 0?
OOC: Keyblock: Murderbonning = Fine. Keeping the Shuttle Recalled to murder everyone = Being a dick
OOC: Falafox: when are admins gonna mann up
OOC: Eredale: Deal with it
OOC: Fragnostic: he deleted the console on an antag, the alright thing to do is make a CentComm annoucnement and tell everyone where he is
OOC: Aloraydrel: Why bother delay it
OOC: CPTANT: TWO is now chaincalling?
OOC: Shaps: were you going to do it more?
OOC: Keyblock: Releasing the sing is fine. Delaying the shuttle to prolong the round 4noreason = Being a dick
OOC: AnonymousNow: Longrounds where the station is a wreck and people are trying to recover enough to escape are bestrounds.
OOC: CPTANT: its jsut that outright deleting is fucking lame
OOC: Keyblock: Did they warn you first, CPTANT?
OOC: CPTANT: no
OOC: Keyblock: Meh.
OOC: HotelBravoLima: I was going to warn but I saw he didn't disassemble the console, so I had hope he wasn't going to be a dweeb about it
OOC: HotelBravoLima: Then by the time I was warning I saw him going for it and had to switch to delete mode
OOC: HotelBravoLima: I was too late, rip

Recalling when the laguloth is eating most of the station is a supremely shitty thing to do, even as an antag.

Singu lag is a lot better since pipe destruction got fixed.

[Scones]

Huge dick move and I don't see how you feel action should be taken against an admin who prevented you from recalling again when the station was so supremely fucked and people were /not/ in condition to come stop you

[Saegrimr]

I would also like to complain about HBL deleting the console too. AT LEAST spawn like 12 spiders surrounding the console to feast on whoever comes in to try and recall and potentially spread more spiders around like I do.

[Wyzack]

Shuttle recalls when everything is so supremely fucked by the sing is pretty shitty, i have no sympathy

[Alex Crimson]

Prolonging the round so you can kill more people or do more damage is a shit thing to do and gets people banned. Dont so that shit. +1 for HBL putting a stop to it.

[Falamazeer]

You're not gonna drum up much sympathy here bro, once the sing is loose, wrap it up.

[CPTANT]

If everyone find the sing so shit, why the fuck is it a feature.

[Saegrimr]

Because its a feature, its not that the singularity is shit. People who recall the shuttle during obvious times of disaster for whatever reason are shit. So in the best interest of round progression, some not-so-subtle buttons were pressed.

Alternative solutions could have been:
-The fun solution of spiders all over the console.
-Adminbombing the captain's office
-Clownbombing the captain's office
-Making you explode
-Making you explode into spiders
-Making you explode into a singularity
-Making you explode into a spidularity

[MrStonedOne]

Rule 0, Rule 1, Rule 2, Rule 3, Rule 4, Rule fuck you, take your pick.

Admins are free to do things to prevent shuttles recalls when they decide the round needs to end, this has always been the case. This includes gibbing the recaller, spawning bad things around the coms console, loudly announcing the recallers location, admin calling the shuttle at 5 minute eta, deleting the coms console, and detonating a max cap admin bomb at the coms console or the recaller. Hell this includes during gang with the understanding that gang has a bit more leeway.

Once that singulo got free, the round was ending, one way or another. It takes the shuttle 10 minutes to get there, you recalled once already, and it was at 40 minutes into the round. How long did you expect deadchat to shit and watch with you run around and recall the shuttle?

[Shaps-cloud]

Plus there were like no space suits and you were actively tasing and killing the few sec officers with hardsuits who managed to come anywhere close to the console, so there was no way anyone could kill the console

[Stan_Studnick]

Why would you even think it was a good idea to make this thread?

I think you should be banned for being a massive cunt and making everyone suffer, but hey that's just like my opinion man. HBL did nothing wrong here, you did.

[CPTANT]

Fine. Close this than

[CPTANT]

Why would you even think it was a good idea to make this thread?

Pobably because it was 3 AM.

Somehow getting shit deleted under my fee instead of just being asked got to me.

[Steelpoint]

While I agree with the principle of what was done to prevent the shuttle being recalled again, I think it should have had a more organic conclusion akin to the suggestion of spiders or something instead of just deleting the console.

[Hornygranny]

It would have been more diplomatic to ask, but I'm glad you understand why HBL did it.
