Dear Moderators and Admins, please stop making !FUN!

Post by Dyne » 10 Aug 2015, 09:22

It often happens that as marine I do wonder why Command goes silent.
Are they drunk? Incompetent? Dead by alien?

Today, playing as BO, I found out part of the answer.
In short- Corporate Liaison drugged/mind controlled the CO, CO shot a BO, CO blew up, and now there is only one BO on the bridge with the CL officially "in charge" as Weyland-Yutani "takes over" a USCMC unit. Ofcourse CL does nothing to actually command this mess.

Dear admins and mods. We love you.
But please, stop. We have enough fun already.
Thank you for reading.

I shot one of the other BOs when he threw a knife at the CO, followed by stabbing and punching him.

Then, after the CO exploded. I blamed the Corporate for this mess, because the CO kept mentioning "Wey-Yu" and then he simply told the nearby MP to execute me, to this order they happily complied and I proceeded to run away while shooting at the MP (since I literally wasn't given a chance to explain the whole fucking thing.) and then get lynched by 3 people and stabbed to death. Shortly after I was cloned by one of the soldiers, Bennett Priebe and our dear Corporate ran into the cloning room and told the soldier that I shouldn't be cloned. This was followed quickly by the second lynch where I was almost stabbed to death, I was put in cryo but it was turned off by our dear Corporate and I procceded to die. Again.

Just less FUN please, its not the first round it is crippling.

Firstly, we take the dwarf fortress stance on fun. Meaning "Losing is fun".

Also, please don't post about active rounds in general. As complaints or suggestions or bugs, it's acceptable, but please not in general.

That's why I didnt post it describing names and time, just a "generic occurrence".
Didnt mean to spill any beans on the round itself, apologies.

I am perfectly aware that "losing is FUN", not that you can lose in roleplaying games.
Just a simple message-request, no need to add spice to spicy events.
If this was heard, I am more then satisfied.

I'm not sure what the admins did, in this specific case?

I assume the whole "implants" were admin spawned, and I'm sure the Weyland-Yutani responces were admintyped, but lets just leave this as a general request.
If I was heard and admins/mods will let rounds go more natural and less immersion breaking it would be lovely, all I'm asking.

Liason has three loyalty implants in secure case in his quarters. And responses of course admintyped, like announcements from CC and messaging with CC.

Dyne youre clearly not grasping the concept of Liaison and the role admins/mods play with into this RP role.

Maybe I dont.
Yet based on the lore, as provided on the wiki
Though they(Weyland-Yutani) do not outright own them(the ships builts for USCMC), they work closely and the latter(USCMC? Its ships?) has often been employed to protect their interests.


Thererefore a "takeover" of a ship for no other reason then supporting one character who decided to be destructive to the core in his/her following "Ensure the interests of the corporation are retained. Update Central with fax messages." directive is, for me, stirring extra unnecessary drama and FUN, and breaking immersions.

Its a bit like "Northrop Grumman" sending a message they are taking over a Gerald R. Ford-class aircraft carrier.
Hence I asked the admins and mods to consider it in future, and it hopefully will improve experience for all involved.

You do know that we don't directly control the CL unless we're playing as him right? We just tell 'em what to do.

Let my clarify:

The Liason, has a DIRECT link the WeyLand-Yutani. Depending on how well he RPs, he can get all sorts of interesting things, including command of the ship if he's got a super valid reason and the USCM commanders are incompetent.

We leave the liason VERY open.

Admins had nothing to do with this.... A Liason implanted the command staff with the implants that spawn in his office from sounds of things....

The Admins continued to declare the CL in command as if Weyland took over a USCMC vessel, thats my main issue.

What? We never declare anything. Most of the time we rarely ever even reply to the CL. The CL RPs on their own and they are not above command staff. This has been said many times. If anything its your fault for letting him over throw you. If a man who is from another company was trying to implant you or something decline it. This almost feels like your just making a complaint about the CL's job. He can make his own RP

It happened. And I was not overthrown. In this whole incident my character was a (shocked) bystander.
