Just had a great late night round on Sybil, it was an extended round so an admin spawned the Syndicate Battle Cruiser. Spawned in, shoot the shit with the other ops, assistant finds us, flees and starts recruiting for a boarding party, meanwhile the crew is building the BSA cannon. We all know how it'll go, minutes later the assistant and four others arrive, assistant dies within seconds, rest of his team(aside from a scientist that got killed, but cloned on the ship) is critted and cuffed. Our Captain demands the nuke disk and 1000 credits from the station for the hostages. Ransack their bags, turn off the GPS locators.
The Syndicate Captain decides their chill enough and lets them move around uncuffed. Go back to loot the assistant for his shit and accidently shot a laser off into a wall, ricochets into a fuel can and nearly destroys the emitters powering the SM aboard. Go back up to the bridge to check on the loot, slipped and mobbed by the hostages in the medical section.
Managed to yell out a quick help as they throw me in a cryo cell, second op comes and gets cell'd too. Sadly blanked for most of the convo between the hostages and our Captain, break out of the cell and start shooting, nearly kill one of the hostages, get burnt to death with a hellfire can. The syndicate Captain manages to get one of the hostages, takes him to the Supermatter and commits murder-suicide. The assistant that we killed was autocloned, teleported to us, gets two of the hostages out, grabs the Engineer.
She turns on the GPS, "I wouldn't be able to make it back without you-"

Station fired the BSA, killing her and the assistant, since they didn't want to pay the ransom.
a creepy assistant, covered with blood and carrying a severed head, told me he thought i had a beautiful head and just had to have it. kept sending me PDA messages telling me " knife is waiting for you <3". decided to take the initiative and get medbay to beat my face into a pulp, which they happily obliged. the assistant saw my mangled face and informed me that my head was worthless now and never bothered me again.
later on in the same shift, i purchased a goliath mask from the vox trader for 50 credits. i put on the mask and shifted into the form of a goliath, with tentacles and everything. i decided to adopt it as my fursona and walked the station. most people ran away and shouted "GOLIATH" and "TRAITOR MINER" into the radio, but after a few words and my peaceful actions they'd mostly calmed down. everyone except the bartender and the mechanic, who assaulted me at any opportunity. i even fought the mechanic in the ring "for goliath rights everywhere", which i lost in one smack of a toolbox since i had been eating damage all shift from hit and run attacks. had to recover it later, which i did through barepalming a novaflower into them until they died and my hand was severely fucked up. as he had fucked the station up a bit while as a goliath, the captain made me promise that i wouldn't hurt any of the crew or damage the station, i agreed. it was barely 3 minutes later when the bartender and mechanic came back, throwing shit at and bashing on me. dispatching them and smashing them into a pulp was easy, but i knew i had done wrong. i turned myself in at sec, where a confused officer took me in and the warden gave me 15 minutes. i peacefully waited out my sentence, though i was later killed by a borg in a tragic misunderstanding involving a suicide and panic.
Meanwhile on hippie.

Saw hippies videos pop up in my youtube feed and instantly felt the need to play again (nfi why I ever stopped in the first place) only to be met with error after error trying to get the damn thing working again.
Byond shit
Update byond to latest beta build, that usuaully solves most error messages.
About the unusual end-round restrictions on RP servers, often staff are investigating stuff (checking logs, PMing people, etc) and it's a pain when the message box keeps scrolling and stuff due to new admin logs from certain stuff. (attacking, explosions, etc abd even seemingly mundane stuff like making a tank transfer bomb but before you blow it up, sent signals, swallowed pills, forcing firelocks etc.)
If I had the time and knew about whatever codebase you work on I might make it so logging stops printing to chat after round end.
Which really sucks because to me end of round grief is like the reward you get for surviving to the end of the round.
AFAIK, a coder on bay offered to disable logging past round end so that round-end grief/combat would be allowed, but it got shot down.
i feel the power of being a vgstation coder, having had my pull request of "made the right arm small size class so that it can fit into my garbage sacks" merged onto the pre-main branch
How do you guys feel about how the fact that threads might no longer have post limits, meaning that the game will never be vindicated by a v13 thread.
We just have to get this thread locked the old fashioned way then. Somehow.
Any volunteers?
I've only recently gotten into SS13 (As in like, maybe a week or two ago), and so for I have managed to misplace my hemostat in someone's head cavity while trying to remove a cortical borer. To say the least I had the guy under for so long (I was busy getting another hemostat to remove the original stuck-in-his-head hemostat) that the cortical borer decided to just wriggle out and crawl into the vents. Surgery was successful in that I managed to bore (hah) someone out of another player by being a really shit surgeon.
Paradise gets picked on a lot due to the staff inserting furries for the sake of furries and as a result the station is full of furries who roleplay with a "Holier than humans" attitude.
That might not be all the players but mud does stick.
see this "educational" video for more information.

paradise is fine for learning the mechanics, but imo if you want to make some fun spess stories you should check out /tg/. i'll never forget the manhunt for the serial killer clown with his reverse bear traps, and sec breaking down the door of his torture den and tazing him - only to realize he'd coated himself, his victim and the whole room in gasoline.
I haven't encountered anyone actually roleplaying shit on Paradise station. The closest I've seen was too medical doctors discussing how borgs were taking their jobs.

I hate to bump the thread solely for drama, but it turns out the host of Colonial Marines, a man who works with children, is most likely a pedophile.

It wasn't 100% confirmed back when I heard it but it definitely is now. What in the FUCK.
His job involves children, too. This is fucking disgusting.
What's even more fucked up is that there are people unironically defending him, despite the plethora of evidence. Some people go as far to say utterly insane shit like "It's not a big deal, he's just a pedophile, not a child molester" when it comes to his job with kids. I wonder if the massive influx of ERPers and furries did this.
i think people are just scared of ruining his life in case he turns out to be innocent, even though there's basically no way he is
All it would take is one person to show that evidence to the school he works at and it would gg him pretty hard
colonial marines will never be able to out robust my mop bucket and i
For some reason, putting down a wet floor sign seems to increase the number of people who slip on the flors y
I mean over all these Colonel Marines changes seem promising? They're being open with it, trying to trim down the bullshit rules, and if it goes as planned, the server they're aiming to be could actually be, gasp, fun???
which is exactly what is needed, too many rules strangles ss13 imo
