[HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
Byond account and character name: Comrade Que - Tee Fury
Banning admin: HBL
You, or another user of this computer, (comradeque) is banned from playing Research Director. The ban reason is:
As Head of Security, had a subordinate murdered immediately for quitting; aggrivated by a grudge between the two players. Even so, this isn't a command style we need.
This ban was applied by hotelbravolima on 2016-05-21 18:02:57.
Your side of the story: Round starts. About 5 seconds into the round, I announce my presence (As HoS) over the Sec channel and ask everyone to report. My Warden (Who I later found out was being played by Tornadium) Immediately says, "Oh the HoS is Tee Fury, he's a cuck, I quit." Now obviously this is Meta. If you're an Admin you've probably heard Tornadium complaining about me, the guy holds a major grudge. (Also before anyone accuses ME of Meta, Tornadium only ever plays as Random Name and I had no idea the Warden was him until later when i was discussing the issue with Thunder and he informed me that it was Tornadium and that obviously he was motivated by his ongoing dislike for me.) Now, angered by this obvious abuse of the server rules AND by the clear cut case of mutiny, I offer his job (That being Warden) To whichever Officer kills him. An Officer took me up on it and gunned the Warden down to claim his promotion. The Warden's body was then deposited in Medbay.
Why you think you should be unbanned: I can see eating a ban for this. To be honest, I feel my actions were appropriate given the blatant disregard for server rules (Especially Meta which is something we are very strict on) But I can also see how someone might disagree. I DO however think a permanent Head ban was a bit harsh given that I was the initial victim of Meta in the first place (And as far as I know there were no consequences for Tornadium)
Cheers.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
While your point of the initial "Warden dislikes me because I'm a specific user" is a bit of toeing the line, people are allowed to keep consistent relationships as long as it doesn't effect their disposition with others. It was rather unnecessary to have him killed, especially when it could have been very possible for a security officer to detain him and turn in his gear.
However, while I may agree with a short ban for this, I am not entirely certain on the permanent ban lasting-but I'd have to see whether you have further instances of this or not.

Also quitting your job is not mutiny in any way

Communist space station, loyalty implanted Warden guardian of the Brig and right hand man to the HoS. Calls his boss a "Fucking cuck" and refuses to do his job with absolutely zero IC reasons to do so.. Sounds like mutiny to me.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
While your IC reasoning may be understood, leaving isn't really mutiny as much as it is dereliction of duty. However, aside from IC rules we also have server rules that you can read here: https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Rules

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
The grimderp nature of our setting on TG isn't very consistently enforced; after all, shitcurity memes aside, if Security goes Hitler on somebody for literally zero reason, they are likely to be stopped by the admins or even banned. Like in this case. In a real corporate dystopia, murdering a guy for wanting to quit and bring rude about it might be appropriate. But on TG, we don't allow IC justifications like that to override the server rules like murdering a player.
Normally this wouldn't have been permanent, but Heads especially need some bare minimum basic standards. We don't whitelist or anything, but I do feel way more free to jobban from Heads if your style isn't something we need a powerful crewman to be doing. As mentioned in the end of the ban reason, this incident says bad things about that style in general. So then I looked up the notes.
Of course, most of the notes don't directly relate to command things, notes don't say the whole story, and many of these are years old, but it goes to character if nothing else. And it really does. While accumulating a few notes may be normal, trouble finds you a lot. To roughly quote another admin I talked with about this in asay, "If people are quitting or jumping out of airlocks to avoid having you as hos, maybe you're the problem, mate."
How can we be assured that your behavior as a head of staff will change?

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
To be fair, a lot of those bans are for logging out/disconnecting in command roles, and the other one is SoS saying "you have no business playing security," which anyone who played during the last couple years knows might be a bit loaded without the context.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
One of my Sec bans was VERY early days when I was new and I made a mistake. The others were for leaving as Command staff at round start which was mostly my connection (I used to play from Australia)
Then I have two from SoS which you might remember was a huge controversy and at the time the general consensus of the Community was that they were unjust.
I think it's a little unfair to say that "I'm the type of character unfitting for Command Staff" When i've been playing this game, solely on this server for almost 5 years.
Of course I have some bans in that time frame. But considering I play Heads/Sec 80% of the time, that many bans over that many years is pretty good going, IMO.
I feel I may be a tad unfairly targeted here. Also what even the fuck is this: "2016-03-10 22:44:03 | Sybil | irishwristwatch0 [Remove Note] [Edit Note]
If this dude so much as touches a bomb as antag do not hesitate to ban them."
ALSO the person that quit on me, is the ONLY time that's ever happened and it was Tornadium. The biggest meta griffing little pussy in this community.
I hardly think it's reflective of the overall perception of me on the server.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
Yeah, I'm going to talk it over with the other admins and see what they think about it. If literally nobody else thinks you should stay binned, then it would be pointless to keep it permanent.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
Since I'm involved in this.
Playing rounds with you as security is literally unfuckingbearable. Damn right I fucking quit than having my time wasted by you letting CJAJ and whatever other shithead metabuddies break into the brig and then detaining security members for doing their job and defending the brig. On top of that holding the detained sec members and letting the assistants attack security while they are cuffed for the fun of it.
I turned in all of my equipment to you in front of your door, this included :
-Sec ID
-Taser
-Baton
-Warden Uniform
I was entirely unarmed and ready to go about my round playing a role that wasn't going to be completely fucking cancerous to my enjoyment of the round, You had already lasered me into near critical before the officer even bothered to come near me. You had clear intent to kill me you just missed enough shots that I didn't go down, this was before you offered the position to the officer that killed me. The officer was not to blame because you had already tried to kill me once.
Last I checked, wanting to IC switch jobs doesn't make me valid even if it was for OOC reasons.
I feel like I should point out that even the admins handling the situation agreed you're fucking cancer when it comes to head/security. All I was guilty of was wanting to have a fun round that had nothing to do with you.

Since I'm the asshole who hates metagangs, I'm going to weigh in on this since I've done a lot of clarification regarding grudging.

You're allowed to refuse to assist him based on previous experiences with him.
And the simple answer to any grudges based on IC snowflake characters is "Change your character".

Thanks for bringing that up.
Good to know there is some solid ground here. I'd also like to point out some other officer called you out for being shit and resigned before I did, I just followed suit.
What I did was less of a grudge per say, more that I just didn't want to have to try to play security with your usual stunts going on.

Killed some guy as captain because a revenant told them to, justified it with "my guy is crazy and had to listen to the voices in his head", then said admins gave him permission which wasn't true( HELP: Comrade Que/(Tee Fury): Am i supposed to ignore these voices or what fams? | PM: Ausops/(Anna Avery)->Comrade Que/(Tee Fury): it's not us but it is IC) Watch for bad justifications to kill people

Being a terrible head seems like a recurring theme, and you still don't seem to understand why this specific incident is wrong.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
I've been playing Head positions for 5 years. I have 4 Head bans, only two of which are actually for conduct. How does that equal being a terrible head. You're more of a terrrible Admin than I am head. I've done my job TOO THE T as HoS/Captain countless times, countering the threats to the station and fulfilling my role well. I have hundreds of Rounds under my belt in those positions, but because I have two conduct bans on record I'm a "Terrible head" Yeah fuck off and get a clew Saegrimir.
As for "If you're being meta-grudged just change character"
It's the admins job to prevent Meta. Why should I have to change my Character because IM a victim of someone breaking the rules. That's poor policy.
As for Lollerderby: I killed the Subordinate for Meta more so than quitting. Kind of like how we lynch WGW readers. I also didn't kill him personally I ordered his replacement to kill him before depositing his corpse in Medbay, call it a fast track demotion.
I WAS ALSO QUITE CLEAR that I'm okay with being banned for this, but that a PERMANENT ban is a bit harsh. ESPECIALLY given the fact that the Admins didn't actually punish Tornadium for the Meta to begin with, so the IC punishment was the only punishment he received.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
Admins are not required to intervene if someone doesn't want to play with you. They mostly intervene when those players grudge turns into targeted FNR killings and grief.
If you play with a snowflake character, it is YOUR decision to get the benefits of metafriends and the downsides of players treating you differently.
Metagaming and metarelationships are completely different things. The only "meta" thing he did is not want to play with someone whom he has had a bad experience with in the past, partly due to your metarelationships.
You can't have your cake and eat it too. You are not the victim; he is the victim of starting the round being forced to play with someone he doesn't want to play with.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
So you're totally okay with people having metaknowledge of certain individuals competency but when it comes to incompetency I'm meant to just give you a pass and let you ruin my round before I react? Riiight. What rules did I break here exactly? I knew you were a shithead and I didn't want to deal with you so I went to get a job change. I feel that breaks the rules a hell of a lot less than gang leaders or revs targeting the robust players, yet that's kosher.ComradeQueTheReborn wrote:I've been playing Head positions for 5 years.

Regardless, you killed me because I disliked you. You gonna kill someone for meta liking you because of something you did in a previous round? Better kill CJAJ every single round then kid. Also you lasered me into sub 20 hp before ordering the officer to finish me, the only reason you stopped is because you ran out of ammo in two weapons.

He turned in all his gear. Literally nothing he did would affect your round in the slightest, well aside from pissing you off enough to do dumb shit and get banned.

Re: [HBL] Comrade Que - Perma Head Ban for being meta'd
I guess there's not really anything more to say about it. I'll reduce this to a month, which is still a while, but I'm not shy giving out headbans that long. It's definitely not been a consensus of 'this was undeserved, free que 2016'. Hopefully there won't be more absurd situations like this whole deal.
