Oh shit he's back.

The one with the highest playtime! (I think)

With a lot of games, if you play for a long time the salt demon starts to take over. Especially if you see said game competitive in some way. league is notorious for doing it.

A break usually fixes that.

Oh lol you linked his 2023 ban appeal and there is a different more recent one.

For very similar things.
How can he beat this?

I guess that's what happens when some people plays a game for so long.

What'd they do as an AI? I can never remember AI/Borg players/names so I just assume the worst with all AI and borgs.

carsh has the most ai hours out of anyone by a factor of two

Carsh has more hours in the game total than literally anyone in this thread. He's resting I think squarely at 10th place for living hours, and I think I'm now right behind him. And for me to eclipse him, I would need to play for a solid three months, nonstop. That's just not doable within a healthy timespan for me right now, so I'll probably stay behind him. And that's only living hours, I could not possibly beat his total hours.

To put it into another perspective for the degrees of separation in terms of time played, when he got banned, he just hit veteran status. For me to achieve the same, I'd need to put in another 1000 hours into the game. I'm sure I'll get there eventually, but thats a lot of time! If you're sitting on even 2k hours, you're a very small percentage of our playerbase, and that's a huge amount of time to have put into the game!

(And this is also kind of a good demonstration of how fucking stupid the veteran system is and how poorly it represents our playerbase at all. I don't even think it was put in with the expectation that anyone would even have it)

You caught him likely at his lowest, and he'll back that up, and has done in the thread. He was and can be one of the best AI's there is. You don't get as many hours as him without having hit a pretty good peak. His valleys were pretty bad, though, but you really have not encountered some of the absolutely horrendous AI players that he's had to rub shoulders with to draw a comparison with. He's a saint by their standards, trust me.

There is something to be said that AI is a role that will subject you to some pretty bad players in general. AI is an obvious victim to exploit; do what I say, you're obligated to do it. Don't, and you'll be OOC punished, or I'll fabricate an IC reason to round remove you. That's the conceit of choosing to play a literal slave to humans. Some people approach the dynamic in good faith. Some do it because they're really just a bully at heart. Carsh experiences enough of those people regularly that can you really blame him if he's jaded to entertaining those who approach it in bad faith?

I trust that when carsh believes someone to be actng in bad faith; he has enough experience to pick up on those who are going to prove to be a problem. His way of handling it is just not the best. And it got worse over time as his life circumstances started to impact him more and more.

Do you have the stat page to check your place in the rankings on hand perchance

To put that perspective into perspective... IIRC top 2 has like 15k hours and doesn't even play anymore and top 1 has like 16k hours and is still going at it

Oh I found it and gosh I did not remember these values well, or carsh actually skyrocketed in playtime. It's not unreasonable? Most of the people below him don't play anymore. But hometownfunky definitely does, I've seen them hide their veteran cloak gingerly a few times it was funny.

https://tgstation13.org/tgdb/top.php

This means carsh is the single highest connected time of anyone.

Damn, I actually rose in ranks since the last time I checked

Sitting firmly on 53 for connected minutes but 117 for living minutes (which by the way means I'm probably one of the 10 most experienced people on the server every time I connect)

If I am alive for 3 hours a day (3-5 rounds) for the next 2 years I can hope to achieve veteran status in 3 years

But honestly it's good like that because you shouldn't see the cape every day

Edit: If I play on all 5 servers at once I can do it this year

You need 300000 living minutes (5000 hours) on TG and you spawn with it. So far, only crash and that other guy have it

Every now and then I'll try to grind some hours for that vet cape, and yet it feels impossibly far away still. I didn't realize I had passed imsxz as well and that's scuffed.

If anyone knows how I can fix the game resolution so that I can see pop ups when my resolution is 3000xbig that would be great because I have to squint to see any menu's and it has been putting me off playing until I stop using a TV as a monitor.

You've been able to UI scale for a while now. The only thing I can think of that it doesn't work for is the input text box that opens when you hit "t", and living with that has been not a problem.
I've been playing on a 4k monitor just fine.

What's that option under?

I click at the bottom of the chat window and type say "SENTENCE" before every single thing I say in game and MAN it's really tiny and that makes talking much harder.

Oh. I'm not certain you can scale that one either.

rip other guy, he has more hours than Crash but he's just reduced to a side character in this appeal.

First time I saw vouches actually posted on the forums. I thought the tg admins would go behind the scenes and ask the servers they played on instead.

Keep this guy out atleast for another year. Being a longtime player doesn’t give an excuse for all the things he did and this was his second permaban in 2023.
