Usual character name: Skenny Betty
BYOND username: Skenn
Discord username (if you are on our discord): Skenn#6849
Recommended by (if applicable):
Goon servers you play: Goonstation 1 Classic: Heisenbee
Reason for application: I have been doing security the most since I started, and I know how important the HoS is, and since now feel I have enough experience, I could be a HoS.
Security experience (300 word minimum): Security officer is the job I played the most and it’s my favourite out of the ones I tried, when I first started I wasn’t very good at arresting people and chasing them when they run away, so I would stay near the computer listening to people’s complaints, setting ppl to arrest, etc..
And doing those things made me like spending time listening to ppl tell me about shady behaviour they saw from some players they suspect are antag, and in most cases those people get it right, so giving importance to their words and actually investigating that person can win you a lot of time and u can then keep an eye on these antags.
Blob rounds are one of my favourite, giving everyone flamethrowers and phasers to fight the blob is one of my favourite things to do (as a non sec officer during a blob round I hate it when security officers just ignore civilians and don’t give them any weapons to help which makes me feel so useless)
Even tho many people are mean to security officers, I noticed that when you act nice most of them stop being mean and will actually trust you.
I try to let using my baton or my tgun be last because I prefer talking to the person first, letting them know they’re under arrest and for what reason, if they accept to come I wouldn’t use force and sometimes not even handcuff them (ofc depends on the crime they committed)
and all of these little things just make people trust you more as an officer and come to you when they have a problem instead of trying to solve it themselves (which is in many cases a bad idea)
Every person is important and my focus doesn’t only go to antags, if the chef doesn’t like it when people unnecessarily enter his kitchen and mess it up I will help him out, if someone is getting bullied by someone else I will help out, …
I also like to keep an eye on my fellow security officers because sometimes some of them will abuse their power or treat people badly (which ofc isn’t acceptable)
Answer two or more of the following:
What advice would you give to other sec players?
1. PEOPLE HAVE MOUTHS, THEY CAN SPEAK (does not apply to mime) don’t just directly stun a person or beat them, I have been beaten up by a security officer many times and then they realize it’s not me they’re after or there is a misunderstanding, talk to the person first. Many people (even if they’re wrong and crimers) won’t run away right away (so when u just directly beat a person u won’t let them talk if you’re wrong and u will increase the chances of them deciding to run)
2. Tickets are fun, you can be very creative
3. Don’t forget the timer when you brig someone NEVER PERMA (I’ve seen ppl wanting to do that or forgetting the timer)
What was one of your favorite security moments? (Either playing as a sec officer or interacting with one)
This one time I saw really shady behaviour from the chef (as a janitor) and when to this security officer who really spent a lot of time with me listening to me and noting everything I said (which was very nice of him) then I went to the chef to check he kills me and cooks me (not knowing I reported him) he just killed whoever entered his kitchen
I just liked how the officer listened to me even tho he didn’t catch him right away
Describe any differences in your playstyle when part of a full security team and when being the only security officer.
When i'm in a team I would make sure we are a real team and on the same line, we can bait antags and crimers and do really cool things
When i'm alone I end to stay in sec taking small complaints, or just have fun ticketing ppl for minor crimes
Answer one or more of the following fun questions (because it's important for the HoS to be fun):
Write a poem to convey your thoughts on security/NanoTrasen/space/bees/anything related to SS13.
They’re in red, around your bed
Even in your dreams they make sure you’re safe mate
You have seen a crime? Someone fed you a lime?
just find an officer and we’ll plan a bait
Draw a picture!
