  1. I think objectives that are directly related to the mechanics of the server would help make them more unique and would help them differ from the norm:
    Traitors on CEV Eris are given an objective occasionally to "make an example out of" someone, either by breaking bones or disfiguring their face. Now, you could do this with the baycombat that's been implemented (e.g dislocate elbows & knees along with the jaw), or you could do it the old fashioned way by smacking them a lot. However, you are required to keep them alive while making an example out of them, so you have to get it done quickly if you choose the latter option to make sure they don't die OR alternatively treat them in addition to beating the shite out of them.

    Solves nothing, causes even more problems and is a scapegoat people like to lean on for what they deem "Not skilled gameplay" as if we were some kinda Dark Souls experience.
    It's fine.
    It was fine.
    It will continue to BE fine.

    Cloning as a system continues to be used in almost every single codebase that SS13 has, with Baystation having removed it relatively recently, and even for a High RP station it pissed a lot of people off. So unless y'all are aiming to get in on the HIGH RP Perma-death action, maybe look at other codebases an put more thought into why the system exists as a whole an find ways to improve medical that don't involve pointlessly gutting entire systems because some people can't stand not getting specifically colored text for 10 seconds at the end of a round.
    I was pretty sure games were meant to be fun, but sure, being dead for 5-10 minutes or more as every single corpse that doesn't die in medical has to be given SR an gone through that whole long proceadure, will be ever so fun.
    I mean it's so fun NOW to be stuck in crit, right?

    There is a server called CEV Eris that, summed up, has a religion and only the members of that religion can be cloned. If you are not a member of that religion (which usually most of the station isnt), defibbing is the only way to go and it has worked fine so far. Mind you, this is a MRP ship where everyone knows all the antags, can buy guns with nonlethal (and i believe if you prowl maint, lethal ammunition), nazi roaches in maint at roundstart and a dictatorship-esque captainship. Granted it's population is waaaaay less than paradise so things are generally less hectic, but it's still SS13 so it is chaos half the time. 

    (I would like to point out there is a 30min timer to respawn, and it can be shortened to 8 minutes if you are put in a morgue tray, however unless the round is tranquil this will not happen, and very few players wait for the 30min timer, as the round would be near end/ending unless they've died near roundstart.)

    Alright so they are forcing the medical system to be far less realistic and less fun.

    Neat.

    Imagine going to the ER and the doctors where like "sorry their heart stopped in the ambulance so we just body bagged them because there was nothing we could do, chest compression are witchcraft"

    They should put a conveyor system into and out of the cloning pod because that's all med bay will be now.
     

    "Shit, patient died."
    "Just defib him?"
    "Sounds like something a WITCH WOULD SAY! GET HIM!!"
    patient comes back to life, grabs pitchfork
    "HANG THE WITCH!!"
     

  4. Now I'm just imagining a station filled with Colins.

    "Hey, Colin!"
    "Hey, officer Earle. How's the family?"
    "Sorry to butt in, Colins, but I just saw Colin breaking into engineering!"
    "Oh my, Colin, that sounds serious! I will go over there immediately to reprimand Colin."

  5. Actually it's supposed to be zero considering that whenever an admin, trial admin, head admin, or community manager posts in this thread (reach the highest number without an adming posting, for context) the amount of posts (usually each post adding onto a defined number, starting from one whenever a staff member posts in this thread) are reset and set to zero. However, it has been documented that if multiple staff members post after initially resetting the count it will start counting in the negatives, where the members can reset the staff's counter and start off at one. There is also a rule of sorts that only dumbdumn5 can post and other players can continue the chain(﹖), usually only being if dumbdumn5 decides to continue the chain (e.g member 1 posts 5, dumbdumn posts 6, member 2 posts 7). However, it is common for admins to kill the chain if the following criteria are met:

    • The thread has not been posted on for a long amount of time.
    • The chain has just been revived recently (e.g member posting 1-3).
    • The chain has gotten to a large number, usually double digits or near ten.

    It is possible for a large group of members to plan and coordinate together in order to reach a great number, but as far as I have personally seen this has not happened, as most posts on this thread are separated by hourly, or daily posts. Very rarely does it go by without being posted on weekly, but this has happened before. It has yet to be tested(﹖) to count with numbers that are decimals (e.g 1.1) but this is mostly due to the fact counting without them makes the process faster and less likely for staff members to kill the chain without the chain reaching a decent number (4-6).

    Sadly I think this is going to have to be fixed via gameplay/code, or in the rules.

    SoP is extremely ineffective as it often requires CC intervention to enforce.

    IMO it would be a bit overkill to include it in the rules and limiting to add a way that certain departments cant use other departmental equipment. The only idea I have is making it illegal (e.g clumping it in with theft depending on the item, since thats usually how you aqcuire this equipment or making a new law like "lack of authorization" which delves into this very topic).

    I would twist the initial meaning behind the art with some less-than-funny dialogue but I have never watched/played/read star wars media so the only joke I can make here is my lack of one. You win this time, phantasmicdream..

    I hate those people who always "stumbles" into antags.

    Worst thing I remembered from a round as warden, was how we were notified of shadowlings.

    The entire fucking sec force instantly disappeared into maint, HOS included, never to be heard from again.

    That round I put a buckshot in my own brains.

    Personally it's never happened to me yet but I'd assume the most common cause for stuff like this is wanting to pull off a gimmick of some sort(e.g quantum pad to secret maint room like the one shown in the image you quoted, renovating it to be your house or shop, using the extra space to make another engine, morgue, etc).

    • You are the tamer, the keeper, the holder of the engine. Foul beasts who serve no greater purpose than to give power to our holy and sacred station.
    • Your party chieftain has been bestowed upon ancient and legendary tools, which only those deserving may have.
    • You are one of two departments who grasp the insulative gloves at the start of every shift, the grey masses pleading at your feet for such a powerful tool.
    • You are your station's maintainer, all thank you for your brave and selfless work.
    • Your cries of the loose beast(s) are the first to alert the station, the humble grey man's cries ignored.

    So a first-ever abductor round. Ended up like a first-ever abductor round.

    Admin told to mhelp. Read wiki and thought that we were good to go, so...

    Well finally I was cloned and appointed as alien janitor. Greys on the station were friendly to get the wrecked extraterrestial a job. Hilarious/5
