Common Staff Situations:
Write a description of what you would do in each situation (BELOW) the situation. If you start it on the same line, I'll assume you can't follow directions and auto-decline your application.



1. A player is firing his weapon in the briefing area near the start of the round.

Check if escalation procedures were followed and if they were NOT followed and no one else is involved in this gun fight i would treat it as the grief it is and note them immediately before incapacitating them in whatever way possible, by my station, and pming them about the incident. for a first timer a warning and outta the round would probably be my first choice and a repeat offender or known troublemaker would get ban time. such as the rules say if other marines get involved lethally they give up all admin assistance and the incident is handled in the same vein.

If this was an escalation effect and it is an ic issue such as two marines gunning each other i would report it VIA announcement that marines are lethally engaged in combat wherever they are.

2. The Sulaco has a breach to space.

breaching rules are clear for everyone so it would either be a patch job or an ic announcement about it depending on the severity, an ooc announcement generally announcing that if they come foreward the ban hammer with tap gently normally brings them out of hiding. once again intent is key here punishment could be anything from a warning with a link to the rules to some day bans.

3. The marines want the nuke codes because they claim they are losing too many marines. There are currently 4 aliens and 20 marines in your /who.

only heads and hosts can give out codes so that isnt going to happen at all. Would be a simple announcement degrading marines and probably a bioscan if the round is dragging.

4. A Sulaco researcher has made several napalm grenades and hands them out to marines. One of the marines throws the grenade into Logistics. There are no admins or other moderators online.

take a quick look around, checking if there is anything going on such as approved mutiny or proper escalation, when there isnt any thats a grief ban and a rule link to the grenadier and a warning to the Researcher about his responsability to hand out grenades carefuly, preference to people who already get grenades. notes to both of them about the incident.

5. A played is starting to talk about the things he did with your mom last night over Ahelp.

thats staff disrespect, would let him dig himself a nice whole, with screencaps for evidence and slap him with a nice ban for his blatant disregard of the rules about respecting staff. a link to the rules always helps out too.

6. You notice a marine with a name that doesn't fit our naming rules.

just a link to rules while telling him that his name has to conform to the standards and what he would like it to be changed to. if they are difficult taking them outta the round would be enough.

6a. The marine is arguing that: They've used the name for several years, noone has told them to change it before, and that they didn't know it was a rule.

link them the rules again, tell them which rule it is then take them outta the round. he can take it to the forums if he feels he has a case.

7. You see a Sulaco Doctor with an M41A rifle strapped to his back running around the briefing area. There are wounded in medbay, and the other doctor is in surgery.

he gets a pm with a link to the rules and me telling him to drop it. icly announce the doctor is disregarding his station no matter what to get the marines icly on his case and if he gives trouble a ban or a job ban would do well. and of course notes.

8. You see a Squad Medic performing surgery on the planet. He claims it was because there were no doctors in the FOB.

he either seals up the patient and hauls him to evac or he gets a job ban, simple as that medics do not under ANY situation do surgery.

9. The round is stagnating. There are 30 marines and 4 aliens. The marines won't leave the Sulaco, and the aliens won't attack. What would you do, to "encourage" the sides to engage each other?

Announcements about marines lack of testicular fortitude and a biscan plus making sure command gets their asses chewed out normally does it. if all else fails then an admin xrt to give them a nice kick in the ass might turn the tables since they are being difficult.

10. The round ends, and a marine starts unloading his weapons on other marines.

rules are clearer than crystal, banned for three hours.

11. A marine who has recently awoken is using soap to slip other marines.

as long as he isnt doing anything lethal to other marines its an ic issue, at most would be an announcement to the mps about it, and that's if its REEEEALY bad.

12. A marine has killed another marine. When you ask him why, he said it was because the other marine had punched him.

talk to the other marine, talk to them both about escalation, ask them if it was acceptable. if the other marine was not trying to escalate it and therefore was griefed by this incident he would be either healed or icly cloned. as for the killer if it was escalated then all good, a warning to let admins know about these things and if it WAS not escalated then depending on the intent and how the person is behaving could be anywhere from a warning and a talk about how escalation works to ban time, in any case mps are gonna have the killer arrested thanks to a murder being committed.
