Personally I would prefer it if Lizardmen could not sign up as a Head of Staff. Not only does this force a trade off for playing as a more unique alien race, but it servers as a balance issue. Rev rounds with the heads of staff being non-human will end quickly.

My opinion: As long as we have asimov as-is playing as lizard is going to be a handicap.

And the racism config option actually protects the round by not having heads so easily killed.

However the threat of the United Earth Government terminating Nanotrasen's top secret plasma mining contract forced the addition of article 67 which barred Lizardmen from assuming a command level role outside of extreme circumstances.
Save the mining contract! Bar lizards from head roles! Viva la United Earth Government!

All this aside, lizards are second-class citizens, not heads of staff. If lizard players are buttblasted about not being able to be in charge, maybe they shouldn't be playing as an inferior race.

United Earth Government is just trying to save you guys from the scaly plague.

Bolded the only point in this thread that should matter. Fluff can be changed and is ultimately cheap. Lellizardracism is a thing for another thread, probably in the garbage. This is an actual playstyle concern.

If lizardsare just going to be humans with a lisp and a tail, there's no fucking point in even having them.
It was better when lizards were only scum jobs. What canon we had was simply changed because everyone wanted to be a scaley while still playing their favorite job.

anything short of actually killing lizards for being lizards should be fair game. you CHOSE to be subhuman, literally. encouraging lizard rights like its the 1950s is SJW bullshit.

Will this prevent Lizards from playing miniheads, And if not will it at least put Human players in those slots before they'd put a filthy lizard?

Katanas are thrice as sharp as eswords and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything an esword can cut through, a katana can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a katana could easily bisect a durand mech with a simple vertical slash.
Ever wonder why Syndicate never bothered conquering Mining? That's right, they were too scared to fight the disciplined miners and their katanas of destruction.

I agree with Ikkarrus' point mainly. Keeps the round secure and running without heads being killed so easily.


A lizard SHOULD be able to be promoted into a head role like usual if the situation permits/demands it.

It's possible to be racist towards lizards without edging into Rule 1 territory, though I guess admins will interact with rule breakers more often than not. I enjoy those smaller interactions (e.g. "What's with all the lizards in Sec? Is it because they're all thugs?"), and AI-Lizard relations are 10x more fun when they're the station's downtrodden by default.

They shouldn't be heads though from the start though. Getting yourself promoted to head as a lizard feels like a mini-achievement of its own.

Luckily for you guys, we just clarified this in the Rules.
[The WGW policy also] goes for players should they cross the boundary from casual racism/sexism (e.g. overly stereotyped characters, the occasional derogatory term etc) to extreme racism/sexism (e.g. encouraging genocide, forcing their racist behavior onto the majority/all of the crew, signing up as Adolf Hitler)

that shouldnt encompass lizards IMHO
as far as the public knows lizard people do not exist in real life
there is a need for rules against racism because its a delicate issue to real life people. it might offend someone.
calling someone a "dirty scaly shit" or whatever the hip new slur for lizards is doesnt offend people in real life (unless they think theyre a lizard, which is another issue entirely)

how does it not make sense
you choose to play a subhuman
fuck you if you want defense for your stupid lizard character
if you try to fight for your rights ICly that's fine, that's RP
but when you try to make lizards have ACTUAL rights that's stupid. they're subhuman characters. you chose to play a subhuman character.

when your 'ebin ic racism' gets to the point where it actively impedes people for no other reason than to be a cunt (and mask being a cunt with the guise if 'muh IC') then you absolutely deserve to be punished. We have a rule for it, actually, it's called 'Rule 1: don't be a dick'.

Which is more autistic

Liking lizard racism so lizards aren't just green humans

Or calling people autistic over it

>some people honestly think being racist against fictional creatures should be bannable

the racism towards lizards adds character to what's otherwise just furry escapism

lidurdly no better than tajarans

it's not even always baseless racism
i've still never met a lizard player who wasn't a shithead
it must take a certain kind of autism to play lizard in the first place

I see problems with the AI. I also see problems with other command staff, given the usual demographics.
I'd say "fuck it" to that and let lizards be heads anyway, but I am under the impression that would create a lot of avoidable friction. Better to rise to power ICly, at least that way others are to blame for the comdominium.

Of course, most of these problems arise because what was stated in the post above me applies to all players, and spessmen in general.
(Except the admins, because I'm not dumb enough to imply they're shitheads. Not intent on getting banned.)

i love playing as a subhuman lizard terrified of all the humans though
it makes it that much sweeter when you suddenly pull a revolver on a racist fuckwad with 3 other lizards around him, and nobody rats you out
In game, I play the A.I Firmware, the French cyborg C.U.R.I.E, Aubrie Allen, and the lizard scum Skulks-Through-Maintenance.

Jesus fucking christ guys what the hell is going on here.
I voted to allow them to play heads out of "Meh, who cares", but you guys are seriously bringing it too far.

Rant aside, I can understand why people don't want leezard heads, but that's due to the lore or something like that, who even cares. So yeah, lizards should be space-immigrants doing the first job they can find.
Assistant and Janitor.
But that would be insanely restrictive.
So only non-head lizards would be good I guess.

Neither wanting lizards to be second class with a definite roleplaying niche nor wanting them to just be weirdo generic aliens is autistic. Both ideas have merit. One creates a definite RP niche, where as the other allows lizards to be used as generic aliens with "insert your own fluff."

Of course aliens should never just be re-skinned humans. The idea of an alien race is to do something with them you can't do normally with a human. Second class citizen works and I really like the dynamic. Creates some interesting play.
