Awfulworldkid Mentor App 3: Electric Boogaloo

[Haine]

I used to be a mentor a long time ago, and though I did get removed as a mentor for being a big jerk to new people (I maintain that some of them deserved it, especially the captain that removed access on his own ID to go be a roboticist and made it entirely harder than it should have been to call the shuttle), I like to think that I've improved significantly over the last year or so.

I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that it's been so long since the incident you're referring to that you don't remember it well anymore.  I'm going to remind you how it went, in the hopes that you can understand that you are very wrong about it being deserved.

Here is the log:

Johann Faust: rest is piss
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): ;FFFFFFFFFFUCK
Stuart Certaint: ded
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): goddamn blob
Johann Faust: The best part is you didn't check my backpack
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): trapped me in a corner
Johann Faust: I had a laser rifle
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Don't give a fuck.
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Never gave a fuck in the first place
Tommy Tomkinson: sounds like a salty ironmonger
Johann Faust: hug it out my man
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): A bit
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Mostly because the captain is a shitlord of the highest caliber
Johann Faust: He wasn't the captain though
Johann Faust: He is a roboticst
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Unrobust AND stupider than a brick, not a good combo
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): He WAS THE CAPTAIN
Johann Faust: Oh, he changed his ID to roboticist
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): I know this because he had the gold ID.
Johann Faust: lol why
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): He changed his ID to roboticist and lost all of his extra access.
Austin Feufer: he was new dude
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Because he's an asshole.
Austin Feufer: cool your fuckin jets
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): And now the only two allaccess IDs on the station are on one square in the blob
Johann Faust: He also is mindslaved so give him a pass in that regard at least
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): what the ACTUAL HELL
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Who and how long ago?
Johann Faust: I did like 30? minutes ago
Johann Faust: I guess way longer ago
Johann Faust: long round
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Deluxe mindslave implant or mindslave implant?
Johann Faust: I guess just normal, was out of a surpluss
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Regular wears off in no more than 30 minutes
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): So if he was he isn't now
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): At least the round is going to end in nine minutes and jack shit can be done to prevent it
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): I even stole his hat and he was too unrobust to do shit about it
Johann Faust: Yeah, I accidently hit him with my dna syringe instead of my mindslave
Johann Faust: had time to put it in my backpack and grab the right thing
Johann Faust: while he unloaded 3 stun guns at me
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): whered his backpack go
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): and did ANY of those stun shots hit?
Johann Faust: nope
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): that is impressively bad
Johann Faust: to be fair I have had a LOT of practice robusting lol
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): how far away were you?
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): did you move at all?
Johann Faust: point blank basically
Johann Faust: and yes
Johann Faust: we were in the hallway just outside medbay
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): didn't know you COULD miss pointblank
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): he must be really bad at leading the target
Johann Faust: if you click the floor
Johann Faust: and I was running all over
Austin Feufer: like i said
Austin Feufer: hes new
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): like, in circles or in straight lines?
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): If he's new he's an idiot for picking Captain this new
Johann Faust: he probably is new enough he doesn't know to make captain low priority
Jillian White: MIght have been random. My first game, I wound up getting randomed to captain.
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): You can tell it's a newb captain round or a really really old captain round if the name is boring an hour in
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Which it is
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Next round imma captain up and show this dude how captaining is done
Austin Feufer: you sound salty chance
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Mostly by making the lewdest station name possible
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): I'm a bit salty cause this guy is SUCH a shit cap
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): He's been terrible for at least the last hour
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): With no signs of even TRYING to improve
Johann Faust: dude you don't even know how long he has been playing
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Notably, he hasn't mentorhelped ONCE in the last 8 or so hours
Johann Faust: this could be literally his first game
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): nah
Johann Faust: and he did mentorhelp
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): he was robototraitor last round
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): Oh right he mentorhelped about path
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): When he lied about following the wiki guide
Austin Feufer: oh come now

Johann Faust: hes got you there man
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): too late for that man
Rob Oson: Seriously
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): you have officially exhausted my ignorance tolerance
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): this is way past noob
Rob Oson: What did I even do to you?
Johann Faust: dude maybe go take a break
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): this is even past willful stupidity
Stuart Certaint: its just a computer game dont cry chance
Johann Faust: like dang
Chance Ironmonger (Awfulworldkid): this is a new and revolutionary form of being unintelligent
Rob Oson: Dude
Rob Oson: Not sure what I did to you
Austin Feufer: chance shut the fuck up
Rob Oson: But no need to be so toxic

Saying "they deserved it!" is about as far from showing a change in attitude as you can get, regardless of how it actually went down.  Mentors are intended to help people who are new, and to do that you have to have at least some compassion for those who are such, and the mistakes they're likely to make.  Berating someone for not knowing all the basics, or not using mentorhelp when you think they should, is unacceptable.  If someone had acted this way to you when you started out, someone who was given mentor, would you want to keep playing?

From this application, I don't see an understanding of why you were dementored in the first place.  My vote is no.
