  1. Si te refieres al tribunal, es "court"
  2. Where the hell did you go, I haven't seen you in months You mean I was relevant enough for you to remember me? I don't think i even played on the server more than 10 times or so. Either way, appreciated!
  3. I drew inspiration from the glorious splendor of your avatar, of course.
  4. 1. You need some latin lessons 2. Please don't use the scientific latin name of the species of your character to name your character. Nobody names their children "Homo Sapiens Sapiens" 3. When someone says you are "a trained soldier" at the age of 22 that means you are probably going to be assigned to the frontline of infantry. 4. Nanotrasen is a mega-corporation, they don't have armies, and therefore they don't have generals. Their private military forces are mostly composed by Elite squads led by captains, sergeants or officials. 5. Please keep in mind that Space Station 13 is a game not meant to let you live your fantasized characters. They will die, they will ridiculized and they will be laughed at, unless you earn your respect. And you have to earn that respect without abusing all the meta-knowledge the wikipedia has to offer (Example: knowing surgery, chemistry, bomb disabling, airlock hacking and torch juggling all at once) since that is cheap and might even get you banned. Good luck gaining that respect on a server with an average population of +100 players. And even then you might end face-down in a pile of their own bloody feces. 6. You also seem to both severaly underestimate, and then severly overestimate, and then again severly underestimate the conginitve learning ability of an ,allegedly, intelligent sentient being. 7. I could go on but I want to give others the chance too. SENTENCE:
  5. I find it amusing that now Qinetix posts Sister of Battle instead of felinid mutants.
  6. OhmyEmprah that's so cuuuuuteeee, look at her little body and oversized legs, adorable. <3 Also, relevant: This plus 14 monkeys = (ignore the pine trees, fat bastards trying to plug in) And yes, that dead spider in there is the first "friendly" nurse who was brutally murdered euthanized by her firstborns.
  7. -> be trator with a syndicate uplink -> buy the random "Syndicate bundle" -> pray for the "Dark Lord" pack -> you get black robes and a hood to look like the False Emperor, two red e-swords and a SE injector with TK -> laugh evily while waving your swords at everybody -> slip on a banana peel and get robusted by the clown
  8. This story has everything! Drunk engineers, bluespace gods, evil witches and it's minions, soap, Hawke, roga AI piece of junk, janitors, bald DS and a happy ending. Loved it.
  9. So, uh.... a well done rev round? Revolution is about that, few syndicate agents "recrutiting" the crew to take over the station to keep it for theirselves.... except they prefer to bomb the shit out of everything while screaming "VIVA LA REVOLUTION" to cause chaos so they heads eventually get theirselves killed. Or just lolflash everybody they come across and wait for the greytide to say "LOL I ANTAG" and rush the nearest head of staff to swarm them with a hurricane of crowbars.
  10. That's what you get for that avatar and signature. You aren't late to change it to something that is not girly and still has DESPAAIR. I'm sure you would like these guys, they are so desperated since they are born that they dont give a crap about anything anymore.
  11. Why not a tamed spider?
  12. STAND BACK I WILL SHOW YOU HOW IT'S DONE!
  13. Because they would suffoca-... oh right, it doesnt matter at all. The roboticist could maybe ask a scientist or the RD to fill a tank with the canisters at toxins storage.
  14. It should also delete all stunbatons, telescopic batons, beepskies, etc. So the guy who is near security can't just LOL BATON INSTASTUN GG GET REKT Though then again, it's piss easy to make a stunprod.. hm.
  15. Me first me first!
  16. Say "*singulo" Paul McEngineer laughs and yells like a maniac! http://puu.sh/eORnX/38ba08124e.ogg
  17. Why not just "white rabbit" ? For those poor fucks who dont get it:
  18. https://github.com/ZomgPonies/Paradise/ ... /parrot.dm line 240 //Simple animals /mob/living/simple_animal/parrot/attack_animal(mob/living/simple_animal/M as mob) if(client) return if(parrot_state == PARROT_PERCH) parrot_sleep_dur = parrot_sleep_max //Reset it's sleep timer if it was perched if(M.melee_damage_upper > 0) parrot_interest = M parrot_state = PARROT_SWOOP | PARROT_ATTACK //Attack other animals regardless icon_state = "parrot_fly" line 492 //Time for the hurt to begin! var/damage = rand(5,10) line 500 L.adjustBruteLoss(damage) emote(pick("pecks at [L]", "claws [L]")) All parrots are blood-thristy monster hunters. All they want in exchange is a pen, a sheet of paper and a rubber stamp to make a nest where to sit comfortably while they wait all the day, as the ignorant and ungrateful CE ignores them.
  19. You know the random event called "tear in space and time" ? They are those scary red clouds that spawn a ton of hostile mobs, like NPC aliens, carps, spiders, hivebots, etc... They cause a lot of destruction and death, and you will need laser fire to kill them safely. Well, few days ago, one of those spawned in the CE office. A huge number of hostile mobs spawned there, and attacked the nearest mob, the parrot Poly. None of them survived, Poly was perfectly unharmed. Morale of the story, don't fuck with Poly.
  20. For some reason the popularity of this suggestion is very. Fucking. Worrying.
  21. If tajaran were able to eat mice they would at last have some use as vermin hunters. We are already suffering a cat-splosion, at least lets have some kind of benefit from it. And no, tajara officers do not hunt the civilian-vermin, they are just another asshole security officer.
  22. From the discussion on this thread, i can point two stated reasons why according to the admin team the clothing machines must be removed. -People used them to slack off and mess around, or even be a vigilante. -They are meant as a clown-mime feature only. The first reason: Counterargument, if people want to slack off or be a vigilante, the lack of fancy clothing will in no way stop them from doing that. Yeah, the thought of being The Owl in a colorful suit is encouraging, but actually most people who use those clothing machines are civilians with no job, and those who do have a job, are competent enough to handle both their tasks and roleplay. The cases when people ignore their job for the sake of roleplaying fun (RP, that's what you want to encourage, right?) or the cases when people go rampant vigilante, the clothing machine is in no way the cause of it, at most a tool to spice up their intents. And these are the cases in which an admin would talk to the person in question. Therefore clothing machines do NOT cause people to slack off for silly roleplay or vigilantism. Second reason: Okay, i can understand that NanoTrasen seeks professionalism and seriousness in their workers, and they want them to be in the reglamentary uniforms at work. Therefore leaving the colorful clothing for exclusive use of the entertainment staff. But! The workers aren't working 24h a day aboard the station, they have shorter or longer breaks to rest and relax, call it "free time". At this free time, most crewmembers would change the sweaty clothing and put on some fresh jumpsuit, it could be another working jumpsuit, but given he is not working at the moment, he is allowed to wear something more comfortable like a normal grey jumpsuit, or a pretty-colored one. And yes, workers have free time, why else would there be a bar, arcade machines, a dance bar, a holodeck and a boxing ring if NT doesnt want their workers to spare free time? And would you go to dance at the bar with your scientist labcoat or your engineering jumpsuit in a real situation? Exactly, so that's why spare clothing should be avaiable for crewmembers to wear, clown or not. So, after this wall of text, i conclude that these two motives don't seem to be a proper justification to have this popular feature removed, could be there other hidden motications? -Technical difficulties: The code for the machines is buggy, or the BYOND hardcap requires some features to be removed to add new better ones. But if that's the case, why hide it? -Balance issues: For example, traitors can use few different sets of clothing to disguise theirselves when wanted, though i would rather applaud trying such approach rather than buying standart stealth traitor items from the syndicate uplink. -It's in someone's personal interest to have them removed. Someone with influence asked to have them removed for any reason. I automatically reject this one, i believe the coder and admin team is honest and reasonable enough to not be guided by someone's petty whims ignoring the playerbase. -The admin team itself forces changes to assert their power. I pray to the Emperor this better not be true, but given the recent stream of changes, I will include it here just for the sake of completeness, please do not take this as an attack to the decisions of the administration and coding team. Most of the changes are good and welcomed, but some of them are completely unexpected and strongly rejected by the playerbase, like this one about the clothing machines. Some of those "bad" changes have an in-deep explained justification for them to happen, but in this case the playerbase got few vague sentences as explanation, and the other possible reasons are unclear or no plausible, thus reinforcing the belief that the changes were made "Just because we can do it". Right now the poll is 34 votes in favour of returning the machines, and 4 against. I know this is not a democracy, and not everybody votes, but ignoring the voice of a representative part of your playerbase is a strategical mistake. And seeing the obvious frustration among the players, not giving a justification for the changes shows very bad PR, which is unfrequent for this community. Please consider if the changes discussed on this thread are worth the inmediate loss of popularity and general morale.
  23. I have an artistic challenge for thy! I challenge you to sprite a skin for a simple mob: an adult tiger, classic orange with black stripes. We also have a black panther but its unfinished.
  24. You will never be better than Ace Reporter Tiffany Madison, but that's not a bad start, just take less pictures of that green-haired thingy and it should be fine.
