/tg/Station 13

Bottom post of the previous page:

So as everyone warned everyone else would happen, the minute ERP was unbanned the same three fucking lizards started to fuck every goddamn round, having to be muted, singularitied or otherwise taken care of, wasting admins' time and annoying the shit out of everyone who doesn't want to be in the middle of three people's extended gay furry cybersex session.

I feel that this needs to be revisited, and for good this time.

I think a line should be drawn regarding that. A very fine line.

Come on metafrienship has been there since forever and has little to do with erp. If you ever played as sec officer I'm sure you had at least one suspect escape thanks to a non-antag metafriend pulling him away/pushing you down, or someone gaining access to your dept thanks to a metafriend HoP and so on

We already have a very fine line, and IC friendships are far, far from crossing that.

If you see IC friends getting them out of perma/giving them all access every round/pulling them from officers, adminhelp it. That stuff hasn't been tolerated since 2012. Otherwise there's IC justification such as sec just being shit (arresting liggers because lel liggers) or them both being team antags.

The way i see it, ERP is just a meta-friend enabler catering to a few cringe-lords, killing off a piece of the community in the process.
At first i thought it'd be funny to have unbanned. Then i realized HG and Anon we're right.

I don't even see why they aren't even valid to players like they we're supposed to be. That was literally it's selling point, and even then. A stupid one, due to all the barriers it created.

I'm just thankful i don't have to see it on Bagil, except for when the lizard ERP fuckers decide to raid it, spewing their gospel about Double Dongs in OOC like it's their religion or something. Like, seriously?

You want good reasons for why this shit should have stayed banned?
Because nothing good ever came out of it.
Because people are sick of it.
Because the community has always been undecided on it's boundaries.
Because it's pushing some people away.

It hardly even counts as Roleplay either. I mean, haven't you seen it?

That said, I'd be in favor of it being valid but the fact is there'd be a validhunter crew scouring the station for harmless and probably naked players to murder/lynch mobs being formed on hearsay/"THE CLOWN AND MIME HUGGED KILL THEY"/"LIZARD TRIED TO FLIRT WITH ME ERP KILL HE". As it stands mins murder them half the time or mark them as valid before announcing their location.

ERP should be banned. I've previously approved of it, but seeing how ridiculous the lack of contribution, self-centered gameplay and the circlejerk of metagaming that occurs, my opinion stands firm.

I don't see what it being a gang round has to do with it if they all stopped and started working for the gang after they were converted.

As to ERP in general it gives me an excuse to spawn lava on lizard players so who cares

Sorry, but was was the point of unbanning ERP if you are going to kill people for doing it anyway?

Team antag.
If you fuck off and metabuddy as a team antag, that's not contributing. I'm not even going to list the amount of times I've found gang/cult/constructs metabuddy against their master's will or not contribute. I've been in several rounds where people fucked off to ERP/circlejerk when the rest of the gang was defending a dominator.

Does that have something to do with it?

J_Madison wrote:Team antag.

Well yeah but in the instance I was referring to the people in question were non-antags who then went on to serve the gang after being converted.

They don't always kill for it, and when they do its usually in a funny way.

Pascal123 wrote:You want good reasons for why this shit should stay?
Because hilarious moments came out of it.
A few vocal people are sick of it.
Because the community has always been decided on it staying.
Because it's pushing away whiny babies.

How you can try and make up this much drama over something so small is byond me.

ERPers do not contribute to the round at all, they should be banned from all team antags.

Gang rounds they ERP, circlejerk, and HRP board games when their gang dies defending a dominator.
Cult rounds they metafriend when they're soul shard-construct.
Rev rounds they sit in the bar and drink when other revs are getting slaughtered by Loyalists.
Wizard rounds the same. Along with refusal to obey instructions as thrall or construct.

Hell even during crew vs X they contribute nothing except protect their friends.

Every round example I've stated has occurred.
I've seen a thrall flat out disobey my order to kill everyone when I found them in Library playing D&D, I've seen them ERP when the rest of the gang just died defending the dominator, don't even mention cult when the juggernaut fucked off from the cult timer up with their buddy in maint.


I'm calling it here. Reinstate the ban on ERP. Fuck off to Citadel if you want to ERP.

I feel like I'm reading a fascist manifesto.

All of that shit still happened back when ERP was banned. The game is not cut and dry station vs antag. Some people like to sit in the bar and not get involved.

Your sex boogeyman is nothing but a hyperbolic myth.

Clearly madison doesn't play, because I myself and others always leave and go valid when we get converted. As always go by a case by case basis and not a generalization of people who RP as non-important jobs.

The status quo of MUST BE MURDERING exists in his mind as well. If you're not killing or hunting antags as nonsec you should be banned.

Ain't it funny how you're on the same team, or treat things differently when you're not if you become team antag?

Oh and don't try to put words in my mouth or label me as having a status quo.
I don't even have 80% of antags turned on.
The idea of always murdering is bullshit. You will never see me validhunt or purposely go out of my way to kill someone unless they pose a threat under castle doctrine.

ERP only further increased the problem, not to mention from god awful metafriending to filling the chat with awful smut when spectating.
There's a difference between not getting involved and purposely sabotaging people they they are involved.

I don't give a shit about those that sit in the bar when someone is murderboning, I care about those that are involved in team antag but decide to sit in maint and ERP. I care about those that refused to do as ordered as a thrall.

There isn't a boogeyman if you actually watched a round.

They aren't breaking any rules.

Stop coming into supportbus to complain that people are ERPing.

What if we added ERP mechanics just to mess with J_Madison and for totally no other reason

Also

>demanding admins to stop players from doing something that isn't against the rules

Adminhelp them. Disobeying a revhead/shadowling/gang boss is not okay.

What the hell would an admin need to be on the server just in case somebody somewhere isn't breaking a rule?


Just because they're valid for admins doesn't mean it's every admin's essential duty to get dem valids. It means admins can do what the fuck they feel like doing to them which can include fuck all.
Unless you honestly believe "valid" actually does mean an imperative to act rather than freedom to do what you want

I did.
Was told it was okay that a my thrall refused to kill someone I ordered them to.
Was ignored/told handle it IC that a Juggernaut refused to kill someone they knew in the past life even though there were not cultist and an active threat to the cultists.
And I've adminhelped when they've metabuddy too far for more than 4 rounds in a row, I ignored and later told not to make a ban request.

Anyone else find it hilarious how often J Madison gets butthurt over here even though they have their own server?


But yeah if you are going to not play an antag role you shouldn't be fucking rolling for them, but its a much bigger issue then just ERPers.

Name names son, tomorrow is too late. All I hear is "them" "erpers" "admins" "lizards".

I think what J-Madison is saying is re-evaluate this shit so they stop spewing their autism in OOC chat. Where nobody gives a fuck, and nobody cares to hear it.

Just stop whining about every little thing and you will be good J_Madison

After seeing first-hand the cancer it can attract, I'm inclined to agree with banning it.

I dunno about that but I now have a new appreciation for the "always valid to admins" clause.

without ERP and ERP being valid to admins the skeleflogging story could never have happened

As a thought, if it's banned again, how long until it's back? Make up your mind and stick with it.

This shit is still going?

Can we just ban J_Madison already?

This thread and his posts are the literal self-fulfilling prophecy of his purported complaints about ERP: That it causes drama.

It wasn't Maddie who resurrected it, though.

Ban them all, then.

Zero tolerance.

For reference, the whole reason Pillz supports the banning now is because of his time adminning on a private server. The server was where a bunch of people like Phoal, daman, and basically every roleplayer fucked off to for a while. The reason this is important is because every single round there would be massive shemale futacock orgy piles in the hallways, the bar, basically everywhere that were chocked with so much degeneracy that it made any normal man's penis shrivel like a prune at the mere sight of it.

Lmao.

I'm with this ligger up there.

I think the most horrifying part was its rapid progression from "Daman in a dress" (which was good) to "futa slime person tentacle orgies with cringeworthy emotes" over the course of a few days

that's why it's kept carefully controlled here

It's been 10 months and you guys can't solve this thing, of all things?

1) Allow ERP in private. You cannot be banned for ERP in areas deemed private.
2) Protect people who ERP in private from being hunted down by the rest of the crew.
3) Allow IC lynchings of people who ERP in public areas.
4) All ERP'ers, public or private, are valid for admin-fuckery at all times.

Problem.solved.

That's basically how it is right now already.

I checked the rules on the wiki before posting and didn't see any mention of ERP policy.
