Take a break.

No, seriously.
Every single one of you that complains about shit and how stale every round is.
Just go play something else for a while.
I've only played a handful of rounds but it's something new and moderately interesting every time, no changelogs to read, no wiki bullshit. I'm running around and spot this massive thing in the fucking bar. What the shit? Apparently it's a DNA vault, whatever.
Then some fucking FOOD SMOKE pops up underneath it, from a smoke machine. More shit I haven't seen.
Now I want to go science next round I play and toy around with whatever new crap there is, make my own damn smoke machine or something. THINGS ARE FUN AGAIN. YOU'RE BURNT OUT.
I have no idea what else has been added since i've been gone, and that just makes it even better for me. Rediscovering the game and figuring out new unknown shit.

This is why I don't play very often if ever. SS13 is good every once in awhile but not every day.

i play most rounds, and one round lasted 4 fucking hours because they didnt leave until swarmers took over because there were no emergencies.
its shitty that people rush shuttle when AAA ITS ONE HOUR WE GOTTA REROLL FOR ANTAG!!!!!!! or AAAA WE DID WHAT NANO TOLD US LETS LEAVE!!!
its called an emergency shuttle for a reason, and most times when its called there is no emergency, its because a tider didnt roll antag and wants to ruin it for the rest
in one round on bagil, there were 3 fucking vote resets

Yeah I haven't played for a couple of weeks now.
But I swear when I do certain people will ALWAYS be on, EVERY day, no exceptions.

the game isn't the only thing that's changed.
the players have changed with it, and sometimes not for the best, and if you have nothing but good memories of constantly playing a game that you really loved and to see it so different in such a different aspect it's pretty souring
but smoke machines r pretty cool

i mean, the sad thing is
oxford is right
i miss 3+ hour rounds
i miss admins not facerolling buttons the moment things slow down
i miss captains not calling the shuttle because all antags are dead
i miss people actually roleplaying instead of taking every excuse to start shit
and i kinda miss basil being almost completely empty

i haven't sucked nearly enough dick though
i'm not aggressively attention-whoring enough
and even if, i'd be up against half the admin team anyway

Last time I came back from a break, one of my favourite features was decried as a bug/exploit and patched out.

Resets requiring wirecutters are annoying since I've seen cyborgs getting de-synced because of it and roboticists being too lazy to re-sync them. And the odd powergaming robo "forgetting" to re-sync to prevent a malf AI from using its cyborgs.
TL;DR Re-add reset boards

Last I remember the reasoning was to refactor modules into making customised borgs, like something with medical and mining equipment but it died and no one even put an obituary in the papers for it

Considering that in these past few weeks, most of my interaction with the game has been idling in observation mode in xenobiology, typing up notes for my next campaign while waiting for sentient xenobio mobs/testing bugs/jumping on ghostroles, I think I ought to have a break soon.
Considering the amount of time I have available to me at the moment that I can do this, I should probably make some effort towards adminship when I return. I haven't properly interacted with the bus since I was an AO.

Start issuing take a break bans and that requires testimony or proof of playing non SS13 games.

Then go on a diet and work out so you can stop being the BBEG and be the LBEG.
