    I never said I never threatened suicide, I just didn't specifically do it to try and get an unban. I was really, honestly in a bad state. And I don't blame Spark for making the call if he truly worried and truly wanted to help.

    No, you did, you made a reddit thread saying he SWATTED you, and that he, and GunDOS abuse their powers.
    The title of your thread here, and on reddit, speaks for itself, and the feedback on both should be plenty for you to reflect on.

    You are now on a 5 minute grace period, when my clock hits 00:25 I am permanently banning you from this forum. Any head can unban you at a later date, but seeing your track record would most likely sway any person away from letting you back into paradise.

  2. No.
    Your IP is ours to obtain when you connect to the server, when you connect our webserver, our wiki, anything that we host. In fact, I'm looking at it right now.

    A SWATTING would mean that a heavily armed police unit is dispatched to your address, in the context of swatting nowadays it would mean Spark / GunDOS called the police with reports of an armed hostage situation or an active shooting, this is not the case.

    You threatened suicide, I'm not 100% on US Law, but I'll go with my gut feeling that Spark does not want his inaction to tear at his conscious.

    I'd also like to testify that they'll probably say they did it to help a poor suicidal person, but the police definitely didn't take that stance. I wasn't checked in on for suicide, I was faced with a harassment charge. Suicide wasn't even brought up except in a line that just made me sound stupid, something along the lines of "they went all out in private messages and threatened to kill themselves over a video game." Whether the police came up with that themselves or if they were paraphrasing the original call, I don't know.


    I'm not very well versed in law, but I personally see it as harassment to threaten suicide over a ruling made against you in a video game.

    Introduce a new level of ERT, below Amber, which essentially acts as an excuse to respawn a bunch of people with normal jobs/access, led by a commander to get them to the station. All of them join the normal crew on arrival. This would effectively be a way to get a bunch of people back into a round for whatever reason, or to shore up a department that is critically short-handed and nobody but ghosts are volunteering to play it.

    Perhaps not calling it ERT, cause it's "Emergency rescue team", but more like a backup of lacking essential roles.
    I like the idea of giving dead players a respawn tool, but it'd have to give them a new character, and we would have to be on the lookout for meta.

     

    Other than that, a long time ago I was playing around with the idea of "ERT characters", basically give people the ability to customise their ERT character's loadout in the character screen so that they can get a more personal feel to it, of course they wouldn't be able to actually change their character outside of skintone, hair / color and gender, but it'd decrease the time it took for ERT to gear up.
    This was overshadowed by the simpler solution of just spawning ERT with a default loadout on, because it was simpler and easier to implement.

    some additional lore and fluff, the book lacks essential info that reading this entire site can grant you.

    Lexicanum

    Beware the temptations of Tzeentch when absorbing this knowledge

    If you want to get into the wh40k universe this is a really good site to learn at, yep.

    I started BC without knowing anything, and you quickly start to pick up on it

  5. What is says on the tin, I'm gathering interest from the paradise community (and anyone outside as well) for a roleplaying game called Black Crusade.

    For those of you that do not know, black crusade is based on the Warhammer 40k universe, you play as traitors of humanity, as you balance the fine art of your infamy and corruption.
    I'll be providing some links, as well as a link to the PDF of the rules book, should you be interested.

    The main difference between black crusade and the famous Dungeons and Dragons is that instead of a d20 system, we use a d100.
    A quick example, you make a strength test, you have a strength of 40, and you get a +10 modifier. You then roll a 1d100, if the die is 50 or below you pass the test, for every ten you pass the test with you'll gain one degree of success.
    So if you roll 40, you pass the test with one degree of success.

    We will be using roll20 to carry out our rolls and chatter, we'll be using text to voice our characters, this is to not make having a mic a requirement, and I've heard that it does open for better RP in some cases, this will be my first time using text instead of voice, so it'll be a fun experiment.

    Personally I've been playing black crusade with my group of friends for about 2 and a half years, so I know the rules fairly well, this will be my first time GMing though, so be warned that most of us will be beginners, I do however have experience in DMing DnD, so I'm not completely new to the concept.

    If you have any questions, feel free to post here or shoot me a PM here on in Discord, hopefully we can make something work and get a small campaign together!

  6. IPC's are by default extremely poor game design, and not what ss13 is balanced around.

    There is no easy fix, and what you are proposing isn't just a 5 minute cakewalk of coding. If you want a larger scaled project to redo IPC's you have to take more initiative, this suggestion has come time and time and again, and sitting on your ass whining in big bold red letters doesn't help your position.
