why would you automate away the most fun part of the job?

It's always annoyed me that drones can't repair the engine room after it explodes or atmos after it burns down.
Solving active problems is a 'no', but if the room is just a massive hole they should be able to fix that.

Having watched people play a decent amount of this game, it's got an amazing story. I think there was some missed potential in that the scanner codes could have been used for branching storylines where you unlock things early in future playthroughs, but it's not necessary and it would probably make ...

Im gonna plop this down in here, but would you guys play Sybil if something like https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=37215 was implemented? I see mainly Sybil folks in here which is why Im asking

It's also not an inherently incorrect idea. If wallening had worked flawlessly from the start we wouldn't be talking about this right now.

datorangebottle

I think if you leave the word 'reasonable' in there, the person doing the killing will just point to that and continue beheading cultists.
Deconversion usually isn't treated as a reasonable option on LRP because of how cult works. I think it would require code changes for deconversion to be ...

I'm not certain coders would agree to any sort of non-coder oversight.
Plus, it's already pretty easy to tell how controversial a given PR is. If people care about the PR at all, there will be some number of reactions to it.

datorangebottle

Not aimed at you personally. But I genuinely do feel like there's a bit of a gulf between the coders and players. Players want one thing, coders dictate how it is and ignore the players and cut/nerf/change all the fun stuff that is the part of the heart of the game, without good reason. Both sides ...

datorangebottle

I am not saying that it is not a lot of work, but I think that if you want to have reign on how the server works, you should host your own as a community. I mean Wallstation worked pretty well, didn't it? I'm not sure how this is coming off in text, but I really do not mean to be aggressive, I ...

datorangebottle

I mean can't y'all host Sybil with blackjack and hookers? fork /tg/ and revert whatever changes you want to revert and have your fun time with your friends like Pepper and Axle?

Yes, but also no. There's a lot that goes into running a server even on a temporary basis, and you're kind of ...

The response from the admin team was that they wouldnt post the logs because it contained private/personal info of the accused (+respect btw).

I don't need the entire logs. I just need the relevant part. Overlay it with summarized text if you must include it. Having any sort of thing like this ...

datorangebottle

??????

This reads out like a conspiracy theory to me. You're actually just going, "Trust me bro, big TG is slowly taking us out. The admins wanted Sybil to die so they started banning players without providing any good reasoning behind the bans."

The unfortunate thing is that at least two major ...

they aren't great but i'd take a year of that over a day of 90 minute greenshifts (i did make that choice!). there's obviously more nuance here and still some need for balance besides "get off my lawn", but the pendulum of thought needs to swing hard. but yes, antags fucking kill you. the point of ...

datorangebottle

yes, the server culture celebrated it. it was separate from other servers. admins put a stop to this, killed the culture, and thus killed the server.
in 'enforcing rules' you guys just killed a big section of the community, and now you have 2 empty servers to show for it. very cool.

First off ...

datorangebottle

This is going to be a big point of contention but antags had way too much freedom. Having murderboners and medical bombers running around roundstart every fucking round made playing on Sybil abysmal. As soon as someone rolled traitor they immediately bought a bomb or a desword (Or whatever ...

That y'all didn't have a manuelcord of your own to organize community nights, chat about the game, pool code knowledge to make changes, and generally chat amongst yourselves definitely didn't help. Get organized gamers, united you bargain divided you beg.

Honestly, 35-40 is a good spot for me, I just never find Sybil in that state when I want to play on it. I thrive on medium pop.

- QC bans also taking the friends of the QC banned with them, reducing population far more than intended

These are the ones that got me.

I like viscous, wraith, and paradox.
Warden makes me very upset when I'm not playing viscous, though.
Also my buddy on ivy airlifted me over an enemy's wall into their base while playing as viscous, where I proceeded to turn into a ball of goo and knock everyone around. It was funny.

This could have been a funny story in the player's club about how the RD researched clown tech during war ops, so the crew built HONK mechs and used them to fuck up some nukies and/or die.

This seems like a complete misevaluation. Comparing Wizard to Heretic should result in Wizard being the far stronger result in every situation.

I agree that Wizard should be stronger than Heretic, the comparisons I made is because I think Heretics outperform Wizard, and that sucks.

One thing I never enjoy with Antagonists is its handholding, it's lame when someone has no way to fend for themselves unless they fully prepare to deal with you, and I think that consistently Heretic is the grossest one.

As someone who likes to handle scuffles between crew when rarely playing security:
