  14. While nice in theory, adding even more layers of complexity to Space Law is bound to end in disaster in practice. As for Manslaugher, it does not take intention into account, and intentionally so.
  15. Welcome... to Bright's Bright Sushi! Conveyor belt courtesy of the one and only Valthorne Haliber.
  16. I remember All-IPC Nuclear Operatives. BEGIN REENACTMENT: Nukies disembark; Rando Officer shoots Ion once; Nukies ded END REENACTMENT

  19. Spacemanspark put a lot more effort into this than I will. Rev is literally just deathmatch. it's not coming back into rotation, it's remaining as a potential, once-every-once-in-a-while adminbus thing.
  20. Nethiafins has been retired from their position as Mentor. Cian2066 has been retired from their position as Senior Administrator due to a lack of online activity.
  21. Strap in, gents. This is going to be a long one. We are completely reworking how Executions work, so anyone and everyone that even remotely plays Security, get a good read on the following: In Legal Standard Operating Procedure - Execution General: Point 7: Becomes: Point 8 becomes Point 9. New Point 8: This means that while a fax being sent is required, Central Command does NOT need to reply for the execution to go through. In Space Law: The following segment: Becomes: Additionally... The following segment: Becomes: In regards to Manslaughter, the Notes have been changed from: To: The greatest change, however, is that we will be splitting Capital Crimes into 2 categories: Exceptional Crimes and Capital Crimes. Murder and Mutiny would remain in Capital Crimes; all previously "Capital" crimes are moved to the Exceptional Crimes category. The latter may not by punishable by execution. As such, the preamble to Exceptional Crimes becomes: And the preamble for Capital Crimes becomes: This means that ONLY TWO CRIMES are punishable by Execution now. Finally, the definition of murder has been changed from: To: Rules on Lethal Force, as it applies outside of the Brig and formalized sentencing, remain unchanged.
  22. Or perhaps you simply don't like it. It's fine to admit this, everyone has their own tastes in video games; however, painting an intentional design decision as "wrong" because you don't like it isn't exactly the best way to go about having a civil conversation. "We can always revert" is, again, not a reason for anything. I'm all for experimentation, but the ideas to be experimented with must be held on their own merit. See: this entire thread. Except you're assuming there isn't player satisfaction. This is clearly your opinion. Stop making it the global opinion of people you do not speak for. Should I point out this is how every server like this acts? Allow me to introduce you to a fantastic metaphor. It's called the "Soup Shop Metaphor". Essentially, imagine you go into a Soup Shop. This Soup Shop only sells soup, obviously. Now, once inside, you go the counter and ask for a pizza because you don't like soup, but you like pizza. Now, your love of pizza is perfectly valid (and absolutely 100% objectively correct, as pizza is delicious), but that doesn't mean you can walk into a Soup Shop and demand pizza. The Soup Shop doesn't sell pizza. The Soup Shop only sells soup. Because, and I know this is going to get everyone riled up again, this isn't a democracy. We don't necessarily pick what a majority of players at any one given time think it's best, especially since our playerbase is very fluid. Our regulars now are not the regulars we had, say, 4-5 months ago. We have not decided this way was "the best", I don't know where you're getting this from. We decided on this way. This is how we want to run things. We're not making the claim that this is the awesomest bestest way available, it's just the way we went. I'll point at the advantages myself and Twinmold have brought up and respectfully request that you stop ignoring them. As Spark just pointed out, 2 Telecrystals is massively cheap. We don't do binding polls. Never have, never will. This is a pointless idea. Oh, guess you handled the advisory part. ... Still no. You've been told by several people here why your ideas aren't as good as you're trying to make them out to be. Your response is to double down and say we should have a poll to see what people think. We cannot have a discussion if you refuse to reach a middle ground.
  23. Because borgs as designed right now are the "end goal", so to speak. They were designed, intentionally, to be like this. "But maybe people will like it" is not in any way a valid, or even good, justification to start branching off and ignoring the few parts of server direction we have on lockdown. Ideas stand on their own merits, on hypotheticals, and as it has been pointed out multiple times in this thread, borgs are working as designed and working as intended, with strong points and weak points. You keep trying to make an argument for equivalent exchange. That is literally the least of our concerns.
  24. RE: The Github regarding most decisions regarding Cyborgs so far. We can't offer you a signed declaration stating "This is what we want to do". What we can offer you is the history of the GitHub up until this point and the opinion of long-term players. This is how we've been running server direction. There's not really any reason for us to suddenly 180 and start going the other way.
