MisterMan Posted August 16, 2021 Posted August 16, 2021 Have you ever wanted to tape an item to a borg, but then be utterly disappointed because you couldn't? I too have felt this disappointment, which is why we should have items able to be taped to borgs. It would allow for more interaction with borgs, such as giving them medals, and would generally be a good addition. 5 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/21355-taping-items-to-borgs/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krossarn Posted August 17, 2021 Posted August 17, 2021 Tapes a note on the back of the borg. "I am a borg, and i smell like morgue" Sounds nice. Though, as long as they can remove the item themselves..

Kyet Posted August 24, 2021 Posted August 24, 2021 I don't think this is a good idea. For one, it seems like it is just gonna get used to harass borg players. For another, the best use for it (giving a borg player a medal) is weird, because... borgs are technically property, not crew, so it would be weird to give them a medal. I'm quite sympathetic to the idea that borgs *should be* crew, but right now I don't think they are, which would make giving them medals weird.

Viz Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 I can only imagine the amount of cheese one could achieve with this by taping advance release lube bombs and such to borgs.

Spacemanspark Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 I can't decide if I like this idea or not. I do definitely see it being abused to be a total ass, but I also can't deny it's kind of funny. Perhaps the *spin emote could be used to remove it. I know this is a somewhat different topic... but making borgs crew isn't particularly sensible, nor does it change anything. As well, if someone wants to pin a medal on a borg... I mean, yeah, it's weird, but it's not exactly breaking the Geneva convention, space/ time/ physics or even really SoP. There aren't any morale issues to it, either. 2 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/21355-taping-items-to-borgs/#findComment-159610 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonador Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) If I can care about my car, my phone, and my computer because of the positive things they do in my life, I can pin tape a medal to a borg that saves my life or the station. It's pretty normal. Silly, but symbolic and not at all something I'd frown upon as command.

LiberatedWaveMan Posted August 25, 2021 Posted August 25, 2021 I mean, we could add a whitelist of what can be attached to borgs and then exclude everything that's not on there? So like, exclude bombs, grenades, grenade casings, and other items that don't make logical sense to tape to something (i.e. beakers, glasses, flaming objects) 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/21355-taping-items-to-borgs/#findComment-159614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
