Whitelisted roles

Post by Shezza » #430257

What should we do with em
Thanks for all the dopamine.

You (cough), you haven't won here. You and your mutie-bastard friends are gonna join me in a big ol' mushroom cloud sendoff. I just triggered the self-destruct. (Heh, heh; cough, cough,...) The work will go on. You didn't do nothing here, 'cept seal your own death warrants. Duty, (cough) honor... courage... Semper Fiiiii........

Admin only if you HAVE to remove whitelists.

No one wants to fight army of predators AND xenomorphs. Admins could still do that HOWEVER it's less common than players just going 'lmao'

There are other ways, like job slot or antag status, but I don't feel like that would be a good idea still.

These are my opinions besides 'i feel like we're doing something shitty here' anyways.

We'll just do what we've done for a while now, and put playtime requirements on roles that require more experience.

Whitelists are dumb and you shouldn't have to write a fucking thesis just so you can be a captain, antag, or silicon.

Ahelp to get watched for a round for a whitelisted role, if you aren't a fuckhead with it for that round you get the role, if your a fuckhead with it, off the whitelist, and no CO whitelist, just synth and pred

EDIT: i feel like i said this badly, So you ahelp to get the role for one round, if your good with it, onto the whitelist you go, if your a fuck with it later, you get taken off from it

I can honestly get behind this.

That's why we have job role bans too however. I do not like the idea of whitelists however I realise, at least to begin with, whitelists may be required as a temporary measure. Long-term I'd rather we look at ways to move away from this.
So uhh, I'm an admin. Please leave feedback! Oops took me a while to strike that through.

I thought the idea of that was to stop entirely incompetent people playing important roles until they're just mostly incompetent.
The most excessive signature on /tg/station13.

Still not even at the limit after 8 fucking years.

I'm not big on whitelists. Plus they're not exactly foolproof, there'll always be an idiot smart enough to circumvent it and I would rather avoid the autism whitelists may induce.

Clarifying some, since I was quoted, I wouldn't have strong feelings against a very soft whitelist which requires nothing more than a forum post and lack of a history of outrageous notes. But predators would still require changes and severe nerfing before that happens.

For Commander and Synth I see no needs, job bans are for that.

As for that philosophy, I won't claim authorship. I'm merely following the policy Rustled set, which I completely agree with and adhere to.
