Renomaki Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Hey, I'm, ah.. Renomaki, but most people call me Reno. I been a player of this game for a few years off an on. I been through a lot of different servers, did a lot of things, and most of all, cleaned a lot of messes.. I kinda play janitor a lot.. I tend to roleplay decently enough. I'm not perfect, but I do like to get more involved in my role on the station, be it something as lowly as a eager to help assistant, or a pencil pushing captain (I do like pushing pencils as captain, by the way). I often try my best to do my job responsibly, even if it means disappointing goofballs (because I'm not wasting cargo points on toys, thank you very much). Of course, as I imply, I'm more of ah.. Paperwork kinda guy than a fighter.. But I still try to fight if I can. Just kinda average at best, I suppose. And if admins are reading this, please, if I do anything wrong, I'm open eared and willing to discuss things, so feel free to message me and explain things so I can avoid it in the future. I often try my best to avoid going over the line. So... Yeah.. Hope to be captain soon enough, mopping floors is nice and all, but I am lookin forward to when I get my own station to run one day.

Keroman Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Howdy Renomaki. We played together in security (me as Warden, you as Sec Officer) the other day and you kept bringing in people for.. eh.. things they shouldn't be brought in for. But I could tell you were really trying your best! We all make mistakes and it's no big deal. Welcome!

NTSAM Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Hello, welcome back! Yeah, Janitor is a nice way to learn the game if CTs/Assistants don't appeal to you. (at first anyway.) It's practically your job to walk around the station and then you also get to learn about how reagents work a little bit. I too am not a fighter.

Renomaki Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 Howdy Renomaki. We played together in security (me as Warden, you as Sec Officer) the other day and you kept bringing in people for.. eh.. things they shouldn't be brought in for. But I could tell you were really trying your best! We all make mistakes and it's no big deal. Welcome! Well, I can understand a few of those arrests, sure.. But I was mainly looking after the safety of the station most times. I just figured after one round where a borg held me at taser point for not having an ID out that it was normal to enforce the ID law.. After all, when a person refuses to adhere to safety regulations and SOP, to the point of death threats, yeh... You do get a little worried about them. I'll have to try more security in time, get better at it, and hopefully I'll be able to better convince people to follow regulations. .. Can you better explain what I did wrong, though? I understand the one SSD I brought in (his SSD status wasn't updated, though, so I was unsure, and being covered in blood without a tag made me concerned), but if you can explain the other arrests, that would be nice to better myself.

Keroman Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I was just poking a little fun at you, and I understand why you did what you did. The SSD person was more AFK than SSD and I didn't even register it at the time because I was busy with other stuff. Wearing IDs is not part of Space Law or SOP, although Code Red SoP states that crew must comply with security requests during Code Red so someone refusing to put their ID on (especially while wearing a mask) is highly suspicious and you can absolutely detain them and search them, but they aren't going to see the inside of a brig cell anytime soon. If someone refuses to comply with a search (on Code Blue) or any request (on Code Red) you can stun them and cuff them and conduct a search on the spot. If they've got contraband (stunprods or other weapons, except job-related stuff like a botanist having a hatchet in their backpack) then they can be taken to the brig for that, but if they've got innocuous stuff, and even cablecuffs (which I personally feel are contraband but the general agreement is that they're simply suspicious but not illegal), then you let them go. Someone repeatedly refusing to comply with security requests during Code Red could likely be brigged for something, although I've never really run into that problem because generally someone who's refusing to comply is doing so because they're in possession of something illegal.

Jamania Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 I've never seen you before, but welcome back, I guess! Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6952-old-player-returning-to-the-station/#findComment-59218 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renomaki Posted March 18, 2016 Author Posted March 18, 2016 I've never seen you before, but welcome back, I guess! Reason being that I played on LOTS of different servers in the past. I started out on Goon, before moving onto another server that I cannot recall. Then that server somehow crashed really hard and caused a lot of the community to flee, so I left alongside them and lost interest for awhile. Then I think I joined TG station, which was ok, besides the constant Blob Rounds making enjoying your job hard. At some point, I again lost interest due to how hard it was to properly RP without matches ending so rapidly, so left once more.. But lately, I had been getting a craving to come back to an old game, so I checked up a listing and found this server, which so far is the best one I came across so far, with hour and a half/2 hour matches on average, along with tons of updates that crippled the meta somewhat, making things a whole lot more interesting. My, how the game changed, for better or worse.

I'll try to remember this advice. I'm not the most "robust" as people call it, but I'd still like to experience security once in awhile, if only for a change of pace. Who knows, maybe I'll try my hand at HoS one day and organize the force to suit my tactics. One day..

Dumbdumn5 Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Am I late? Did I miss the welcome wagon? Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/6952-old-player-returning-to-the-station/#findComment-59272 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renomaki Posted March 18, 2016 Author Posted March 18, 2016 Am I late? Did I miss the welcome wagon? It's nice to see a senior admin come say hello. Again, as I indicated before, don't be shy to talk to me about anything I mighta done that you'd consider questionable, should I end up unknowingly doing it in the heat of the moment. I don't bite, and don't mind sitting out the game for awhile if you deem it so.. SHOULD it happen, anyways, but of course I'm going to try to avoid that, since, you know, that wouldn't look good on a record.
