  1. 6 more hours of wondering what to do for the evening and then finally going comatose.
  2. human_face.dmi in the icons/mob/ folder from the main directory.
  3. I've seen it too, but it was in a yorpyorp video and I think he played on goon.
  4. Already done, thank KasparoVv. I'm spriting the greyscale stuff for all the IPC heads so that we can do that robits, so really, all we need is the hair sprite split into two pieces, one for color 1, another for color 2.
  5. I'm voting yes, as I think this feature would add a bit of style and some cool undercover cop such and such, as well as letting civvies try to hide a bit of armor, or maybe giving antags a way to conceal it if it were stolen. The problem I can see with it, however, is usage of already armored jackets and coats and stacking the protection values, assuming the armor would simply add to, not overwrite the protection variables already on the jacket/coat.
  6. Because often times experienced players have already done all there is to do and enjoy the freedom civilian offers, allowing you to do a lot more with much less responsibility in the game. This in addition to being accepted for nearly every role in the game, and more likely to be able to have time to do more interesting things (gateway, space exploration, large construction projects, D&D games, etc.) due to a sort of expendability that only the civilian role offers.Many don't wonder where the greytide come from, it's generally understood that people who are new to the game are less experienced and worse at it than experienced players, thus gaining the name, greytide. The fact that there are too few roles in the game has been stressed to death, and it's more than likely that it would need a map change to accommodate the additional slots necessary to support our often 100+ population, which is why metastation is being widely discussed in the "It's time for a bigger map" thread. Limiting the server doesn't do the server any favors in terms of adding to the game. It artificially limits people from joining, which can suck big time regardless of what role the person attempting to the connect has in staff or the server. It removes more from the experience and will drive off more players than it will help in the long run, especially now as we have an aforementioned amount of over one hundred people playing at the same time. In short, I disagree with the statement that an artificial limit on total connections should be placed under any circumstances, and believe that the primary goal of those who play civilian often is to enjoy themselves and the game in a fashion they see personally fulfilling. tl:dr / Why the hell are you using a long argumentative format? I like to mess about without responsibilities and being a civilian is one of the only good roles besides mechanic (assistant with a spacepod and roundstart toolbelt) to get that. Also I like talking on end without needing to say "Well shit, the job calls! I've gotta go! See you maybe never!" It's also fun to fill any job role I like if I happen to get in the mood and the HoP is feeling nice.
  7. The reason you're misunderstood is not the way your wording things, but more that you haven't said enough on what you want to happen. It's telling us that you want change, and you're clearly upset with how things are now, but there's no place for seeking a remedy, as the rules in general are the only topic you'll give. You bring up admins a lot, so one could infer you meant that we should remove the phrase "The Staff Members have final say on the server", yet that would cause a number of issues by itself and may not be what you actually mean. You say that there's shit to stop, but what is the shit? Admins talking to you in game about things that aren't against the rules. That makes sense, but at the same time, Administrators are meant to give a judgement call in-game, and this leaves the player to leave a respective complaint or unban request if they felt that the admin was handling their case improperly or giving them unfair treatment. It doesn't seem like you're bad at posting stuff in terms of displaying your opinion, it just seems like you don't know how much is necessary to give out to get what you want fixed, fixed.
  8. 12 ... the hell rhymes/fits with drummers drumming? Remember, I count a as a player, lest ye set back progress!
  9. While I agree that clarification is key to a smooth experience when it comes to rules, I will point this phrase out from the rules " The general idea counts, not the exact wording. The rules are guidelines for the server and should be interpreted to suit the situation at hand, not manipulated to suit your needs." The rules won't be perfect, and often times, admins will need to be called in to talk things over and pass judgement. The admin has the final say over things, but if you feel it wrong, you can post complaints and if you were banned for it, unban requests. This isn't to say that things shouldn't be expanded on and clarified for the future, just that it will never be perfect.
  10. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! ^w^
  11. I will now channel Adr... This is as naked as you're allowed to be.
  12. 5 truths that show I only lock people in the void, never kill them.
  13. Already was, and besides, papa Adr was a headmin at the time he made me a player, so now I am both player and seal, BEHOLD, FOR I HAVE THE POWER TO DESTROY GALAXIES! 1
  14. 2 not reset, I should put this in my signature I COUNT AS A PLAYER IN THIS THREAD!
  15. Rissa, how is it to get Nerissa out of your head, or at least not trying to murder everything?
  16. I'll admit, I only read the title and post #1, mostly due to horrible laziness.
  17. FIIIIIIVE GOLDEN MIMES (I still count as a player, don't you dare restart)
  18. Aye, not a real MMI though, just a posibrain the looks like something somewhat organic, but functions entirely the same.
