/tg/Station 13

very good idea, excellent illustration

if we were hard filtering, id rather more prominent slurs/bigotry go first, aka the n word.

consistently one of the most reliable people in bus, big thumbs up

Happy May, Almost Star Wars Day?!
/TG/ Monthly Newsletter #2
Welcome to the second /tg/ monthly newsletter!
This is a basic summary of all the going-ons and happenings in TGstation in the last month, along with any upcoming events and highlights.

General Docket
We got a few things that ...

Maybe im playing into the stereotype, but potatoes are an easy s tier and i've lost all my respect for you wine

im walking

i dont know where hes at but ishmael punchbeef was cool

I'd appreciate a minimum on the extremely destructive events that require a full crew to fight/repair, see: blob, dragon, supermatter surge, meteors, probably something else im forgetting

I see the error in my ways, maybe NoxVS is correct..
Graytide SHOULD be worldwide this term. Its a big decision, headmins. Make the right one.

yeah i guess theyre nice and they often lift the spirits of the admin team or are very active in all channels but they didnt want rainbowtide 2024 and as such they are now my mortal enemy

listen doctor so called amazing (have not seen any phd) this still holds up but i will look past this ...

Hi! Oklews is currently permabanned, so I'll be taking over.
Good news, it isn't actually a permaban. If you wait 999 years, youll be unbanned automatically.
Regardless, Consider yourself unbanned, Oklews! Ill update it in a second. Let me know if theres any issues with reconnecting.

If you do it, it will be tradition. DO it. DO IT. DOOOO ITT...

The Vanderlin administration drove myself away, and i recently got in a arguement on reddit, but overall they seem from their regular content updates to be doing well.

getting into reddit arguments is a pointless endeavour that will only make you angry, though i doubt this needed to be said ...

This is no longer the case in either code or policy

Slipped my mind, my bad. Probably should happen again if we rule this as such.

Id like to keep it simple as and I agree with spook. If youre concerned whether something is non-human, use the scanner. If human, yes- if non-human, no. I think mutants should be non-human in code, especially considering people with flight potions are also made non-human.

But for real, names like this foster an attitude that everyone is the most specialest, unique snowflake on the station; that they are the protagonist with the ability to decide not only their fate but the fate of the entire round. That they're so cool, so notorious, that the rules the rest of us ...

If we were going to do anything to naming policy, I'd actually prefer it to be making it looser. The naming policy on plasmamen and ethereals is way too restrictive as it is, with more zany galaxies getting shot down for ethereals and plasmamen only having so many elements to choose from. Id rather ...

i thought i made a feedback on this
vekters probably one of the moral pillars of the admin team
god bless

TG Monthly Newsletter #1

Welcome to the first of (hopefully many) TG's monthly Newsletter!
This is a basic ...

i just finished re3 and really liked it - i heard there was some naysayers but as a blind playthrough i had a lot of fun
it helps that i love carlos

Relevant, I actually had a solution for this issue In my headmin thread I'd like to go forward with even if I dont win this.

Update: I've actually put some thought into potentially a psuedo newsletter for the tgcord. I've made a format, and I'd be happy to run it. Even If I dont become headmin ...

Metacomms fucking suck, cheating takes out a lot of fun from the game especially for others, but using them to help a new player and not cheat is ok imo, just don't play in that round and stay in VC to help the new guy.

Im with Rex on this one, 100% agreement.

A little confused about ...

A curator role or something, sure. I wouldn't oppose something like that.

I've made my views clear on the peanut, but outside of that-
A code solution akin to an approval system might be in order? It's impossible to individually check every book, but if there was a tool for just skimming it and selecting yes/no before it was made printable- that would be good.

This is pretty much already against the rules. If you use a TTV to defend yourself from an assistant, you open yourself to being banned for any collatoral damage you cause. Its mass destruction.

Update: I've actually put some thought into potentially a psuedo newsletter for the tgcord. I've made a format, and I'd be happy to run it. Even If I dont become headmin, this is something I'd like to push for.
heres the example formatting:

► Show Spoiler

Policies updated! Four new policies!

2v8 came in again and it was really fun, esp with wesker (my beloved) and nemmy
chaos shuffle is on rn and its great
new killer looks super fun
the game is in a decent state for once, especially with the upcoming surrender options

Im with Rex on this one, 100% agreement. I would go as far to mention stealing Dramazing's previous idea of providing a dedicated space for newer players to be helped.

Hello! As you can see- I've actually already worked on my promise to propose changes to dynamic through a pull-request on this repository, and have proposed it the headmin team. I think Ezel has already surmised how the system should be used- and I find myself in agreement with their points.

I was largely inactive in ss13 spaces during the wallening, so I think it would be disengenous of me to comment on the situation directly. I liked the sprites quite a lot, and felt like there was a shitstorm hurled both ways. I defer to rex's comment for what I would prefer to do if a similar ...

By the nature of the game- people do voluntarily sign up for mime. You can set everything to medium and mime to off if you want to roll random without a mime. If you roll a mime and you didnt want to- thats just kind of tough. Regardless, I'm not going to die on this hill.

A speaking mime is a terrible thing- I don't think it should be allowed. This comes back to what Rave says about leaving good examples. More solutions like limiting the mimes PDA are purely code based, so I can't comment on them. I will say, I don't really see this so often on mimes- maybe I just ...

Hi nianjiiiiiiiiiiiiical! I actually really like your rule 11 proposal, but unfortunately- you like friday night funkin!
good luck in the election!

Rex brings up some good points and its a pretty good fact that our community can be pretty rough towards mappers or new maps: Finding another way to run maps through Events or the such could be a good way to encourage it. For example, me and rex recently hosted Capsandis /t/ vs /g/ event, using ...

theyve been really great in all my interactions with them and its a crime theyve been trialmin this long
give them their purple badge

super active and comes across very well in tickets
definitely a good addition to the roster

consistently active and consistently great from my experiences talking with them and lurking in bus
has a clear enjoyment of the game and asks a lot of questions (big positive)

I had an interaction with the wallening merge? I largely wasn't playing the game during that time, only showed my support for the project because it looked cool.

There is so many ideas I'd like to take from other candidates it's hard to list them all. Whats important is that it feels like everyone here genuinely wants a shot at making the game better and has their own ways of going about it.

Stealing more from newly headmin candidate Jack's thread- I think the new player VC is a great idea. Ive seen it before in DrAmazing's old thread- and I think it still holds a lot of potential. I appreciate the kind words Rave! Its definitely going to be a toughie to win this one considering how ...

I don't trust a definite stance or policy on how to get pop back- because at the end of the day, people are only going to play on the servers if its fun. I've outlined specific points in my platform- but things like enforcing a better standard on Manuel, tweaks to dynamic and special config events ...

I've mentioned this in the prior elections I've run as a platform I supported- and I still hold my stance on it. We should be encouraging admins to give out antag tokens and positive notes as gestures of goodwill when someone does something special or exceptional. Theres no economy to inflate by ...

Its an inevitable factor of Sybillites moving to Manny that Manny was going to suffer. The RP quality has definitely dropped- and I can say that enforcement isn't as 100% as it usually is. I'd like to try enticing people back onto sybil through config events and the such- but that aside, we probably ...

Weve had this conversation 1000 times before in bus- I dont think anyone actually likes dynamic in its current form. I'm not sure how much config could be tweaked in order to fix it- theres only so much you can do without having to fundamentally overhaul parts, which is what I think is needed.

Im ...

betray tradition and my heart is broken- vote revoked

I got asked for a badge- my badge is just putting a seal gif in your signature. Heres a seal gif as an example!

Hey Kinneb! Do you have any ideas for what kind of config events you would wanna do?

Hi Rex! Well, I'm not intimately familiar with the config, so I can't say too much- But things like what I mentioned in my thread with special round-start species, a new map rotation or Non-Human Heads for a ...

registration is back now
yipee

Hey folks quill18 here , I wanted to ask you lovely candidates about how you feel about rule enforcement.

I think it's pretty well understood that every single rule is an extension of rule 1. It's just specificities about varying degrees of one existence as a bellend and how to avoid being one ...
