You're cool and nice! You should consider being HoS too, I think you'd be good at it.

Again, it's rude when you make a gimmick and someone is uncomfortable with it to just dismiss it. It's find to make a thread to gauge how others reacted and they are not trying to get you in trouble. ...

Well since we can't read minds and don't know the user personally to even make a personality judgment, it has to remain a supposition at this point. When it comes down to it, some things are clearly o...

Sundance, again, this is a basic rule of human interaction: someone tells you they're uncomfortable with something, it is the decent thing to do to take their word for it. You may think it's unique, b...

To be fair, I don't think this is about "play to win" as much as being uncomfortable being compelled to go along with a certain gimmick. I mean regardless of whether we think that gimmick was okay or ...

Before that, it would be nice if AI shells could use ladders so they could participate in telesci adventures (I was in that position a long time ago, that's why I bring it up).

Thankfully, a typical sec officer by themselves is not hard to take down, so any griefers wouldn't last long going around tasing people. They usually get dealt with pretty quickly by the crew.
