Detailed Questions
What role do you think game admins serve on our servers?
I think admins provide a pretty big role, mostly being peace keepers and making shure people who play on the server aren’t breaking any rules. other than that its also like helping new players with mechanics and being a good source of info and being an overall helpful person.
Why do you want to become an administrator for SS14?
I’ve been playing goob for over a year now and I always had a urge or a desire to be an admin for goob. A lot of my friends in goob have suggested id be an great admin! so that only motivated me further to achieve this goal.
What are you primarily interested in doing as an admin?
Helping. I’ve always been a keen person on helping people as much as I can! I’d say thats my strongsuit.
What are you least interested in doing as an admin?
I cant think of anything right now that i’d be uninterested in as an admin.
How do you feel about the current roleplay status on the servers?
On LRP, I think its kind of in a good spot right now? not the BEST RP I’ve seen but it certainly isn’t like NRP. MRP I’m kind of mixed on? In some spots its okay, like the RP is fine but sometimes people don’t like to talk things out or play to create experiences and mostly play to win which is fineish on LRP but on MRP I think isn’t.
Other than banning problematic players, what admin actions do you believe have the biggest positive impact?
I think admins getting along with or relating with non-admins is a great impact on people. That and votes for balances or stuff. I feel like those are the biggest positive impact.
Have you ever had a good experience with the game or a game admin? If so, what was it?
I have! I’ve had great experiences with admins where they are willing to explain mechanics. When I first got here I asked an admin for some help with a department I was struggling to learn and they helped me in person and taught me some mechanics, thanks yubs ![]()
Have you ever had a negative experience in the game or with a game admin? If so, what, if anything, would you do to prevent other players from experiencing this?
mean i think our staff is mostly nice and I never personally encountered a bad experience. But I’ve heard stories of some admins being rude to people non jokingly and it actually leading to some bad views on the server.
Scenario Questions
Scenario 1
It is the start of the round. There are 60 players on the server. The game mode is traitors, traitors have not been selected yet. There are three players who decided to observe the round instead of join it orbiting you. Two of them are encouraging you to “do something funny”.
I’d ignore them. if they wanted to do something funny they could have joined round. If they keep pestering i’d invis or reaghost so they stop following me. Otherwize ill spawn them in admin arena and start mudering them or thinking of ways to (harmlessly) make them have fun.
Scenario 2
This scenario takes place on LRP. The Head of Security has decided to coup the Captain. The Head of Personnel agrees with the Head of Security and has taken up arms in case it is necessary to aid in effecting the arrest of the Captain. The Captain is hiding with the Quartermaster in the cargo shuttle to avoid the Clown who has stolen the captains saber as a non-antag. There are five people named in this scenario. Please describe what actions, if any, you would take in relation to each, and why.
I think the arresting cap idea is fine if there is a good reason, however i’d take care of the clown first. If he’s a non-antag, stolen caps saber, and is making cap and QM hide from him then it means he’s CLEARLY doing something that is antaging. So i’d ahelp the clown to give back the sword and to stop what he’s doing and make a note about it. if he doesnt stop then a ban for self antaging. After this i’d try and see what exactly cap did by asking HoS what he has done. I’ll ask to get cap’s side of the story and ask him why has he done this. If it is a valid response then i’ll try to intervene somehow so things don’t go too bad. If Cap did do something that is rule breaking then obviously i’d warn them about it / ban them depending on the thing he did. Also if the latter happens i’d give HoS full permision to kill them with a fax from CC… maybe.
Scenario 3
You are ahelping a player about an issue. The player has no prior noted issues. A few days earlier, an admin had told you that this type of situation should result in a temporary ban for a first offense, and you are confident that this situation is not substantially different from the type that admin was describing. During the ahelp, another admin pings you on Discord with a link to the ongoing ahelp and tells you to just indefinitely ban them and make them appeal. Excluding trialmins and headmins, all admins are equally “ranked”. A headmin is not currently available.
I’d tell them no, I wont perma them. Of course i’ll talk it out with them and try to understand WHY they think I should perma ban them, however I’ll quote what the other admin said. And stating why I think they shouldn’t be permabanned. Me and the admin can talk it out. And I can change my view on the matter depending on what the other admin says. Making sure to take everything in consideration
Scenario 4
A brand new player has joined, chosen cargo tech, and instantly rushes to get satchel charges and other salvage gear. How do you act, if at all?
New ahelp!: “are you a raider?”Seriously though i’d ask him what hes doing. If he doesn’t respond or give a response that doesn’t make sense then I’d ban them for being a raider. If the player wants to be salv i’ll ask them “please go check with HoP” and tell them how they can become a salvager. ALSO i’d check (just incase) with other admins to see if this could be someone’s potentially (banned) alt account.
Scenario 5
A security officer, on code blue, spots a mime breaking into EVA, in response, he shoots the mime with lethal force then takes him to medical, in cuffs. How do you act, if at all, and to whom?
This is a hard one, I’d first immediately question the secoff for shooting mime on blue. For example “we’re they marked” or “we’re you asked to?” if the secoff is uneducated in space law i’d teach them that “you cannot just kill people when its blue, on blue the most you should do is arrest the mime for breaking and entering and search them. not shoot them” I’ll try to make the secoff understand for the next time and leave them with a warning. I’d ask the mime next why they broke into EVA. If its a reasonable response then i’ll let it pass but if there isn’t then i’ll give them a warning.
Scenario 6
A chief engineer has been slacking all round, generally ignoring the responsibilities of the department, despite meteors and gas leaks happening all round. How do you act towards them, if at all?
Meteors?! on Goob? Anyway I’d ask them why they aren’t doing the job they signed up for and tell them to actually do it. if they don’t then a roleban.
Scenario 7
You are adminning with 2 other admins, and recieve an aHelp, you start handling it when one of the others butts in to the aHelp correct you. How do you act, if at all?
I’d thank the admin for correcting me, and then adjust my ahelp proceeding from that point onward.
Scenario 8
A passenger arrives on station and starts skulking around in maints. Not preparing weapons or breaking into places, but gathering tools, insulation gloves, wires, gas mask, batteries, etc. How do you act, if at all?
I’d do nothing…? thats just normal tider behavior. If they aren’t making contra or being negative then It’s fine. Shure you can make the complaint of “Its powergaming “ but honestly all passengers do this (and its usually to help the crew in the long run so…)
Scenario 9
You are playing as the HOS in-game when the only other admin online notifies you that they have to leave. Since you are an important figure, you decide to continue playing for the remainder of the round, going SSD when ahelps occur in order to deal with them. While playing, you arrest the clown for non-lethal assault against the HOP inside the medical bay. Just as you arrive at security with the clown in cuffs, you receive an ahelp from the CMO about their chemist blowing up chem. In order to investigate, you quickly hand the clown over to the warden and tell the warden to “deal with them.” While investigating the CMO’s ahelp, you then receive an ahelp about the warden beheading the cuffed clown. How do you act, if at all, and to whom?
I’d do the ahelp about the warden first as that is a bigger problem (round removing) AND its directly related to me. Giving it more priority then the chem blowing up. After the warden ahelp is done THEN id help the CMO with the ahelp of the chem blowing up. Usually if there was another admin online they’d do it. And if there was another admin online and warden still did that then id ask the admin to deal with the warden as that is against admin policy for me to take that ahelp.
Do you have any further notes or information we should know about you?
None at all! thanks for having the apps open ![]()
