I get it, it can definitely be interpreted as a dick move but the reason I feel comfortable telling that story is because everyone involved had a good time. Everyone laughed, it's not like they quit SS13 forever. Frankly I think it's unfair to judge me based on a post on discord talking about actions made two years ago instead of actions ingame or directly applicable to the role.
Secondly the idea of this event, and my off-hand commentary on discord being a permanent "you can never be HOS" mark I find callous. Three years ago I was the sort to just rampage on each server until I was banned and have a good laugh with a group of toxic 'friends' I've since moved on from, are we going to judge peoples permanent character based on singular and past actions? I ideologically despise that sort of thinking and I think this community, as otherwise welcoming as I've seen it be, can do better.
I do admit to being too much of a butt to new officers though and I'll work on being more welcoming towards them, unless they do outright malicious things. I was a harmbatoning shitter once too, after all.
