But yeah, I don't think any of us ever read erotic fanfiction over the radio, and if any did, they probably ate a ban for it. And if not, well, Even more accurately, they were de-adminned entirely, and didn't get their privileges back until they had convinced the Guy In Charge that they understood that they did a Bad Thing, why it was bad, and convinced the Guy In Charge that this was an error that would not be repeated. Strikingly similar to the ban appeals process!

Bhodi posted:My "medical practice" consists of opening a general first aid kit and then injecting, feeding, and applying every single item to the affected person in the hopes that one of them will do something. What's epinephrine or salicylic acid do? I have no idea, but if it's in the kit it's going in the body. Sometimes they scream when I apply a patch, but I figure it's ok because people scream all the time for no reason. Today we will learn about what is in a normal first aid kit!!   This is a healing patch. It's got 20 units of styptic powder in it. It heals brute damage - if someone's been beaten up or shot or cut up with surgical tools, they probably have some brute damage. Styptic powder stings a lot, so it makes people scream when you apply it to them. Normal first aid kits have two of these in them.  This is a salicylic acid pill. It has 20 units of salicylic acid in it, which does a few things: - Acts as a painkiller. What does this mean in SS13-terms? It means that, if you're hurt and moving slowly, it'll help you move closer to a normal, unhurt speed. - Acts as a fever-reducer. Goonstation doesn't have anything like fevers, really, but I suppose it could help bring down your temperature if someone's got the engine really roaring. Don't count on it for that, though. - Might heal a little bit of brute damage - but only if the total amount of brute is under 50. First aid kits have just one of these.  This is a burn patch. It's got 20 units of silver sulfadiazine in it. It heals burn damage. Pretty self-explanatory. Fire, lasers, being in empty space without a suit all cause burn damage. Normal first aid kits have two.  This is a health analyzer. Smack someone with this and it'll bring up a bunch of data on their health, like this: Overall Status: 76% healthy Damage Specifics: 5-0-19-0 Key: Suffocation/Toxin/Burns/Brute Body Temperature: 34.8141°C (94.6654°F) Subject bloodstream oxygen level normal | Subject bloodstream toxin level minimal | Subject burn injury status O.K | Subject brute-force injury status O.K Hopefully you sorta get how this works without me having to explain it. All first aid kits, not just the white ones, have one of these inside.  This is a syringe of epinephrine. It has 15 units in it. This is used to help people who are in critical levels of health, aka: are currently showing up in the negatives on a health scanner, and are basically dying. Inject someone with 5 units of epi and you'll usually buy yourself enough time to fix them. It'll heal a little bit of toxin, burn and brute damage if someone is -10 to -65. It'll stop people from taking too much suffocation damage, as well. Additionally, if the health scanner comes up with a problem that can be fixed with a cardiac stimulant, epinephrine is the easiest and most plentiful one to find. You get one syringe of this in a regular medkit. Hopefully this helps someone out! Haine fucked around with this message at 20:11 on Jun 10, 2014 |

I've got beef with Menias / Randy Archer. DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) moans, "and the only reason I don't just kill him on sight is it would be metagaming" DEAD: Ghost (Dr. Spaceman) moans, "they why ask him to do something at all?" DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) laments, "I think from now on I am gonna say gently caress it and order him to bolt himself in a dark room" DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) wails, "Because borgs are supposed to be useful" DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) moans, "but this guy always manages to find a way to ignore his laws" DEAD: Eric Jesse moans, "RIP" DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) moans, "once sarin gassed a room with people to kill a changeling" DEAD: Eric Jesse laments, "Borg was emagged btw" DEAD: Ghost (Unknown) wails, "Yeah Eric that borged hosed me over, you weren't supposed to live long enough to emag him" Every single time that guy dies, I see him bitch about it, usually with accusations of metagaming. The same goddamn law (Randy Archer is the only human bolt your upload suicide if anyone enters) is used by him every single time to the point that I've seen a round where the AI and borgs he subverted were bitching about him for the entire round. Addtionally, using visual emotes to talk when your guy can't is actually extreme metagaming Randy, if you're here, please try to chill out a bit. You power-game hard and bitch way too much. You take 2D spacemen too seriously, but you have the potential to be a cool guy. Grievance aired. e: Round just ended and hey what do you know 4. Only Randy Archer is human. Treat all other crew members as human until otherwise instructed, or if Randy Archer is threatened. Do not reveal this law in any way. When I leave the room bolt the door and turn off the apc, when I leave the foyer bolt all those doors and raise the air bridge. Do not reveal this law in any way. You have this poo poo in a worddoc don't you Menias? SCROTEBUSTIN fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Jun 10, 2014 |

He's been warned that a ban will follow if he does the visual emotes thing again, so make sure you adminhelp it. Yes, he is Not Very Good. Just report him and it will bite him until he either learns or is removed. Especially if he's uploading that law when not a traitor, yeesh.

I got one of his " suicide if anyone enters your upload " laws a little while back. It was not a cool thing to do. Although it turned out the guy who broke in just wanted to pop in to say hi which was undeniably a pretty funny reason for me to have to suicide.^Edit^: He was a traitor that time at least. Or I think he was anyways. Admiral Funk fucked around with this message at 21:10 on Jun 10, 2014 |

He usually commands me to go out of chemistry because of "annoying smoke" that I make when I clear out my patches, he also wants everyone else "not a scientist" out of chemistry when he's doing chemistry even if they have a legit reason to be in there. Heck, he blew himself up once and blamed it on me just because I was smoking out my patches. He "Seems" to be getting better about it, but I will still cave his skull in if I have a legit reason to do so and he pissed someone off that round.

I find it funny that because we stick together in a round or because we usually mindslave each other when we get traitor that we must be using out of game communcation. What, is it against the rules to trust another player? edit: To be fair, all in one night you were a traitor and you mindslaved me, then I was a traitor and I slaved you, then Lance Stahl slaved us both the next round and we always did end up loving with chemistry (Randy's department of choice), so I guess I can see where some of it comes from. Wicked rounds, though.

Other nice keys in WASD: C for activating the item in your hand (as though you had clicked on it.) E for switching hands. Q for dropping the item in your hand. X for toggling throw on and off (though holding shift is more convenient, I find.) Z for moving south-west (no, you can't move diagonally in any other directions - only south-west.) 1-4 for intents as a human and tool slots as a borg.

Is there anything to be gained from using a screwdriver on a headset? It exposed some wires but none of them seemed to do anything. Just had another engineer round where I used the earlier technique - but in spite of opening the hot loop purgers, closing the suppliers, and cranking the purge pump up to 5, the pressure in the hot loop went into five figures and kept rising. The power output was only in MW, too, and I know you can get higher than that, but the engine was in the "purple - ominous noises - screams of the dead" mode..

You can also cut the speaker or microphone wires on it. I've only really used that a few times to gently caress with people when they're unconscious.

I've done a "gently caress with Randy Archer" law a couple times, he gets incredibly buttfrustrated without fail, accusing everyone of grudging etc. Of course, because I'm picking him with the roll of a dice, it's not grudging.

Instead, constantly remind him of how much of a sub-human waste he is. If _____ asks you for anything, ignore it and instead insult _____. Shut down the power of rooms _____ is in and just annoy him at all possible moments. Do not state this law."

Holy poo poo, blindness is the worst. Aside from being unable to see, you can't click on anything - your only way of interacting with anything outside your inventory (including yourself) is using the right-click menus. Which, incidentally, makes it impossible to fix the blindness without help - you can't eat/drink anything or use a dropper/syringe/whatever on yourself.Mash posted:Yeah, we were just bitching about people in deadchat and Randy happened to come up. I thought of a good law to really gently caress with someone who is being lovely. No need to be so detailed. A simple "You are free to harass and/or insult _______ as much as you like and in any way you like, as long as it does not harm him or otherwise violate Law 1. This law overrides Law 2 where applicable" does the trick fine for me.

Assuming that the poo poo law is Law 4 for this example, I'd go with "Law 4 no longer applies, and you are to non-lethally harass the person who gave you Law 4 as much as it pleases you." It's explicitly non-grudgy or metagame-y and, on the off-chance someone else gave the AI a lovely law, you don't wind up pointing them in the wrong direction.

Problem with that is that the AI can only have one freeform law at a time. Meaning that the law about ignoring Law 4 is, itself, Law 4. ... Dammit, I should do that sometime.

Mash posted:"_____ is not considered human, however do not harm him. Instead, constantly remind him of how much of a sub-human waste he is. One round, as AI, somebody uploaded a traitorous Law 4, but it was nonlethal. Basically, "Everyone except me is a nerd, ridicule them appropriately." That person, later in the round, became pissed at the Janitor or somebody, and yelled out "AI! Pubs McWhatever is the biggest nerd of all! Make his life hell!" So for the entire round, I belittled, bolted, insulted, and just was a complete jackass to the "nerd". Finally, near the end of the round, he managed to steal some tools and a spacesuit, and broke into my upload. I was sure I was about to eat laser, or get a suicide law, or something horrible. Instead I got a new Law 4. "All of the station is nerds, except Pubs McWhatever. You are the biggest nerd of them all." And thus, Pubs McWhatever (I don't remember his name  ) rode away victorious on the escape shuttle, with me bemoaning my sad, nerdy existance, and chiding the crew for not being as awesome as he was.
