/tg/Station 13

I ate a dayban yesterday and felt like oversharing. It was pretty fucking dumb and entirely avoidable, but looking over my note history awakened an urge that the public bans page cannot sate. I want to hear about the times you fucked around and found out, especially if it was funny. Here's last nights failure to start things off:

During an event round with multiple stray syndiecrates implanted themselves with all the implants they could find, which included macrobomb. They macrobomb exploded when they died (to a crossed medbeam streams), which caused at least 3 people to die, and destroyed medbay. Admitted their fault in PM, and was understanding.

Don't they teach grammar at admin school? Shake my head. I would appeal just for that terrible writing if i didn't think it'd get me banned from FNR Post any funny notes/bans you have, if you feel like it. I promise to roast every single one.

My very first round on TG station

Warning - Killed a clown because he thought this was a "shitposty server". Told them its not and to read up on the rules. Ban em if something like this happens again.

I genuinely thought you just beat the clown to death for fun

Tips for goody-two-shoes and admemes: If you have no bans to share you can easily create one by logging onto a server and breaking one or several of the rules listed here. https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Rules
Making content for this thread is well worth the ban, trust me.

I know i promised to roast every L but holy hell dude, i am in awe of the sheer energy this note radiates. All these notions of "roleplaying", "balance", "rules" and "multiplayer" pale before it. This....this is Space station 13

Watched a nuke team handily massacre sec, stomp around in a gygax for a while, storm the captain's office and then the vault where they located the disk.

Just to realize they'd all wasted all of their C4 and had no idea how to open the vault.

Guessing that wasn't a note or ban since it just sounds like a massive skill issue. Also i'm pretty sure Gygax's melee attack can break vault doors, so there's an additional layer to this L. Granted, it's been like a year since i piloted one, but even if it can't they could have just deconstructed an rwall.

More specifically, it was the safe inside the vault. To date safecracking is still an esoteric science that many spessmen don't understand.

A few from the older days
I've got a ban for setting off the disco inferno back before it was antag exclusive.
Also one time accidently solo'ed a singulolouse back when the singulo engine was still accessible via cargo. I built it in space and accidently got rocketed into space by a shield before I could get all set up. I got away without as much as a note, but to be fair it was entirely an accident and therefore within the spirit of the game.

1: What the fuck is a singulolouse

2: If i had a ban for every time i've delammed the engine i'd have been perma'd long ago. I may not be malicious, but i sure am incompetent

EDIT: Also really funny bans shouldn't be taken into account when considering a player's past behavior. In my humble opinion, doing the equivalent of "OHOHOHO i sure could use a cigarette right now!" during a plasmaflood is peak SS13 and - while you should expect a ban for it - shouldn't be held against you afterward. Like the administrative version of the clown griffing and getting rightfully lynched by the crew.

Oops I'm double posting. Admins are human, we don't look at a note history just counting the red marks, we'll normally read the notes. Normally, only repeated crimes are punished more harshly. We really don't want to ban people, we just want them to not break the rules


FWIW with the clown example you mentioned, the best outcome imo is the investigating admin to invoke The Secret Rule and not place a note cause it's funny. Once a note is placed it's trickier to ignore

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time.

In 1.1k hours I've only got two non-requested bans (Because I'm a good boring player).

My first ban is one I'm sure most people know about. My second ban is much newer, only two months old.

Accedently set off a C4 as an intended EORG device pre-emptively, killing two innocents and a heretic. They felt so bad that they requested this ban for it. Appeal anytime.

I was a monkey sitting in a pod with c4 in my backpack. I stupidly thought "I'll just place the c4 on the walls so it'll go off as soon as the round ends". Just as the pod was about to dock, someone hijacked, adding time. So the c4 goes off early killing everyone in the pod. The following wave of dread that washed over me was a very unique feeling. I immediately ahelped, explained what I did and asked for a ban.

I've learnt my lesson and I won't ever use explosives for EORG.

Yea I definitely had like 30-40 notes by the time I was adminned, I can post a few when I get home. Some of them are funny.

That's not the right lesson to learn from that. Clearly you just need to wait for it to leave next time. Progress is iterative, and in just a few bans you too can EORG with the best of them. Be better. Be cool(TM).

I think I had maybe 1-2 in my several billion connections before I was AC'd. Minor IC-OOC shit from when we didn't have the fancy chat system we have now.

I just don't think EORG with explosives is worth risking, honestly. It's five seconds of enjoyment that could leave you with a 1-3 day ban. I enjoy doing regular DM more anyway.

My biggest L was downloading byond that first time after the Seth video

My biggest L was downloading byond in 2009 on the computer in my dads sweatshop to play Naruto rpg

My biggest L was downloading byond that first time after the Mandalore video.

Also imagine having notes. Please.

I was confused about what the entropy lawset did and uploaded it as captain and AI went psycho and I tried to stop it but I couldn't and a lot of people died and alphonzo permabanned me

When i was young i threw a rock at some kids nuts in school because he kicked me in the leg and then i went to the principals office and they had like a CSI drawing and trace of the exact rock with its length and height

When I was in kindergarten, a kid in my class threw a rock down the hill my school sat on and it landed on another kid in my class's head. Pretty sure she almost died, and she never came back to our school.

one time I threw a rock and it went through a window at my elementary school because my friend and I were fighting over it and I got in trouble

Was this an anglo private school or something? I can't imagine any other place being that anal about rock chucking.

How does it feel to possibly have ruined some kids life? Maybe she didn't come back because they put her in a special ed school

a few years ago I was the nukie team leader, it was highpop and we decided to stealth and before hitting the station we laid out our entire plan

we would split up into 3 teams, 1 would hit the AI, the 2nd would hit the armory and the third would go in stealth like and try and nab the captain before shit kicked off, we bought the appropriate gear, suited up, racked our guns, chomped our cigars and got ready to murderize the station

before we piled onto the shuttle I gathered everyone around and reiterated our plan, in full paragraphs and in excruciating detail, I didn’t want anyone to get confused. I was excited, most of the time when I rolled ops someone declares war and we run in and die trying to murderbone but this time we had a plan. So, I took a deep breath and pressed enter.

And to my horror, looked on as I had posted our entire plan in OOC. Needless to say, we all died and there was many a “ick in my ock” message spammed.

Thats actually hilarious, I would die inside after doing that

Here is a screen shot of a few of the horrible things i have done in my time on /tg/

Apparently saying z-level to explain a wiring question was too ooc in sybil back in the day. Man our ooc in ic rules have relaxed a lot since.

As a posibrain durand, helped his gangster creator kill space cops, posibrains dont work like that, do no harm as a posibrain mech in future

This one pissed me off because this was the ticket which got posibrain policy text rewritten to take up most of the screen and if not current policy than the policy which this ticket caused said that posibrain mechs were to follow their creator's orders.
So imagine my face when I got a note for acting in a policy grey area only for new policy to be written the next day which said that I needed to kill those space cops. ALSO space cops ain't even crew so you can't even say mech's shouldn't hurt em cause they're crew. Still liked playing families, those rounds were such bloodbaths.

Banned for 1440 minutes - Killed and spaced the janitor for wetting the halls outside the janitor office. Really overkill and just not good escalation at all.

Appeal is out there somewhere for this one ^^. The janitor actually opened up a vape canister.

Underestimated the power/radius of the C4 suicide and ended up causing quite a bit of damage on the Emergency Shuttle bridge. It was an accident on their part and they even requested a short ban, but I feel a note suffices in this situation.

Yea legit had no idea C4 suicide blows up a 3x3 area, though I'd just get a gib and it would be funny.

Banned for 1440 minutes - Attempted to welderbomb a cultist, resulting in the death of themselves and two innocents. The cultist was injured, but ended up surviving. Please try to be more careful in the future when using AoE weapons.

Full disclosure on this one, I had no idea that was a cultist. I welderbombed the HoP line if I remember correctly and after dying found out it was a cultist. Deserved ban and should've been two days lmao.

Line toeing Grey tider... Followed the captain into brig to disarm them of their baton simply to "teach them about not holding their baton out"

Without context this looks like a dumb note but I was constantly doing that kinda shit every round and I think PAS was looking for an excuse to talk to me about my behavior. Straightened me out a little but not much seeing as the notes above (and more) happened after this.

Note - "Set to code red so I can be shitcurity please = null Please be code red please be code red = null SET TO CODE RED SO I CAN BE SHITCURITY PLEASE = null" Plays a catgirl species and round start demannds security access. Has cases of stunprodding/arresting the individual who refuses to give them access.

Back then catgirls couldn't play as sec so I'd ask the HoP for sec access as an assistant. Pretty accurate note.

Worst shitcurity i've seen in an extended round with abductors.

There's a complaint up about this one from me. I'm pretty sure I was being a whiny bitch about it but if memory serves me I may have killed someone in the armory and gotten a note for it.

Warned about jumping to lethals unnecessary. Apprently didn't know that lasers get the same block chance as tasers when shooting at the riot shield.

A guy came at me with a riot shield and I thought tasers were blocked by them so I lasered it instead. In my defense, shields are made of glass/some kind of clear material, and lasers go through glass while tasers don't.

Let me know if yall want more, this is like less than a quarter of my notes

I got a funny L from 2020 or so. I was a Research Director who was still relatively new, but I could navigate through the department and do toxins easy peasy.

I end up going to Xenobiology for whatever reason, and Tam Lin was there. He gives me an oil extract and then tells me to activate it. Brain.exe stopped functioning and for some reason I didn't throw it away when I absolutely could've, resulting in me blowing up, instantly dying. This was hilariously awkward because as I'd later find out, he was a traitor and I was his target.
