This seems like a good time to share a relevant experience I had a few days ago on LLJK1 on the same topic. There was one round in particular that was very bad with lots and LOTS of IC in OOC, rule breaking AI's and terrible decisions all around. I ahelped it but I didn't have time to stick around and see if anything became of it. I've noticed lots of new players on LLJK1 that appear to be very young and not very aware of the atmosphere the server is supposed to have. Maybe a more significant Admin (Mordent please come back) presence would help sort this out.

4 main characters in this sequence of events: Prichard ; NewGreytider ; Captain ; NewAI
Act 1: Uh
NewGreytier is being fucking creepy and trying to grope people, basically bordering on weird ERP. Eventually stops (thank god). It didnt last long.
Act 2: Meh
Prichard makes a hissing sound in the bar and says something about drinking blood. NewGreytider acts worried. Captain goes on the offensive and talks about evil vampires. Prichard is amused.
Prichard makes another hissing sound and the captain decides that vampires deserve death. NewGreytider fucks off to space. Prichard fucks off into space to avoid death.
Nothing terrible so far. So far.
Act 3: Heh
Prichard ends up on the faint with NewGreytider just by coincidence. All the while the captain has been shouting about killing the vampire and the AI is constantly trying to track him. NewGreytider begs not to die, Prichard offers to go host a radio talk show with lots of alcohol. Prichard is still amused
Act 4: Lol
Getting extremely wasted. The radio station is filled with puke, glass, and drunk radio screaming. NewGreytider dies from dehydration (lol). Prichard sends his body back in the port-a-sci and goes to the space diner. Prichard is amused
Act 5: BAD
The NewAI had sent a shell to the space diner and discovers Prichard. The NewAI begins to attack Prichard according to the captain's orders while Prichard drunkenly shouts "I AM HUMAN" over the radio. This is the first rule breakage in a long long list.. From the wiki "Human UNTIL the AI or cyborg WITNESSES the creature commit a non-human act (shape-shifting, transforming, proboscis etc)."
At this point Prichard was a pacifist and had not harmed anyone.
The AI stands by as witness as the captain valiantly pulls out his Spacker-12 and starts shooting the evil evil Prichard vampire.
Act 6: BAD BAD BAD
Prichard is trying to make his way to the AI upload. NewGreytider starts complaining in OOC that nobody ever goes near chemistry (pls). He makes it! The AI is operating under vanilla lawset (weird right?). The captain had not subverted it. Prichard uploads a law saying that the captain is a traitor and is no longer to be considered human. The AI turns on lethals. Prichard takes heavy damage but manages to escape.
Act 7: Make it stop
The shuttle is called. Prichard is running around this ship for his life as the AI tries bolting him into rooms and telling the captain where he is. The captain is hunting valiantly for the evil evil vampire still. NewGreytider is openly talking in OOC about someone going to research and finding his body please omg. The captain finds Prichard. Some random crew member starts attacking Prichard with a blunt object. Prichard pours a firebeaker on him. The captain shoots his totally-legal Spacker-12 and hits the random crew member. Random crew member dies and the captain blames the evil vampire, and so does the A of course.
Act 8: RIP
Prichard takes a spacker point blank, teleports away, and dies in a corner. NewGreytider asks in deadchat "Why did you kill me?"
End of round: Captain was an antagonist with assassination objectives. AI has one additional law stating that the captain is a traitor and not a human. Oh boy howdy.
