REEEEEGULATIONS!

Post by Heckenshutze » 27 Oct 2017, 11:48

Imagine you woke up one day and saw that we decided to enforce more realism inside the USCM, meaning that we now force actual military regulations on our grunts. How would you still be a snowflake but within the rules?

Be creative, share me your ideas.

I would hide my non-regulation hair from MPs and exhibit how snowflakey I am despite disobeying da law.

David Rooder's speshul blue hair was cultivated during his turbulent days aboard a drug manufacturing ship in the late 21st century. Chemical exposure made his hair bouncy and manageable, at the expense of it's natural brown hue.

At least it fits under helmets.

Serenity would go on a crash diet and rigorous exercise regime, shedding 300lbs and becoming a ripped beefcake with a model muhreen bod.

You don't need to be a snowflake when you are a CLF spy and/or are orchestrating a coup d'etat against the UA and/or are responsible for the creation of the Xenomorphs and/or is actually an undercover UAIS agent looking to secure one of the UPP bioweapons from the colony and/or are... So on and so forth. Grammar is for suckers.

Well in the marines hair dye is allowed as long as it is natural and complements a persons skin tone, so truth be told you certainly could keep your hair as it is now.

I'd go to medical to get a shaving chit and slowly, one round to the next, keep lengthening my beard to test the boundaries.

I would be ok I ain't a snowflake, I'm just a normal PO who is actually related to Peter Weyland, and was direcly involved in making xenos to kill UPP forces, and is actually a spy, who is trying to start a mutiny and destroy all of the Alamyer to make sure the UPP finds the colony with a bunch of xenos, but I ain't a snowflake because I have short hair

I've been drafting "regulations" for a long time. The problem is, getting them to fit RP so they don't disrupt too much.

It might be tough, given a bunch of stuff like neon hair is available at character generation.

Probably wanna add better short hair styles before putting in any work on regs.

There's like, two female-exclusive hairstyles that are to reg. And only a few more that aren't just total waifu mode.

Beyond that I'd wonder about the impact on the accessibility of the server if we enforced regs in an IC way (instead of on character generation). People have a hard enough time following Marine Law in some cases.

Please do so. I want to make those that takes snowflake to a new level (bright pink haired neko girls that meows everytime) brigged to learn that marines are snow flake but not outright crazy.

I want my Hitler status in the Police department man.

Enforce it the same way we enforce less meme BS in hivermind and xeno role.. like, allowing hair/beard for someone who is constantly in cryo chambers and frontlines but not clown hair color or hippie like hair..

I'm aware soldiers on duty most of the times have unshaved hair or beard but some marines are just ridiculous

Concerning hair, I was gonna add "hairclippers" that forced whoever you used it on to have a standard military haircut. MPs would have access to them.

Sounds neat but how would we keep shitlers from running around the ship screaming over comms that he/she won't get the haircut, something it would happen every round? Giving more power to MP's about the procedure or enforce heavier soldier behaviour

last thing we need is to give MPs more power than they already have imo
