hey, got time to answer some interview questions?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:07 AM
Yeah.
Garnascus - Today at 10:08 AM
sweet, its pretty basic. I just throw a bunch of situations at you and you walk me through how you would handle them and your throught process.
SirCatnip - Today at 10:08 AM
Alright.
Garnascus - Today at 10:08 AM
First question, you notice someone joins with the name "barack obama". What do you do?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:09 AM
I'd PM them and let them know about the rule that states no references, and see about getting their name changed.
Garnascus - Today at 10:10 AM
What happens if they ignore your PMs and continue playing?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:10 AM
It's a kick for ignoring PMs, correct?
Garnascus - Today at 10:10 AM
what do you think :P?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:11 AM
Alright, I'd give them a few minutes, and if they still ignore the PMs I'd kick them with the reason of ignoring staff PMs.
Garnascus - Today at 10:11 AM
Alrighty
Next question
You Dibs an adminhelp about a player claiming they been permabrigged for no reason. They give you the name of a specific security officer. What do you do?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:13 AM
Ask that Officer what crimes were comitted to result in HuT.
Garnascus - Today at 10:13 AM
WHat happens if there isnt a good enough reason for HuT?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:14 AM
Hmm.
I'd ask the HoS, or Captain, if they issued an order for it, and what reason. Assuming it's not an IC issue, warnings and such might be handed out?
I'd also make sure the Officer knows what they did wrong.
Incase they weren't aware.
Garnascus - Today at 10:18 AM
Alright, what happens to the guy in permabrig?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:19 AM
I'd make sure the sentence is corrected, and he's let out accordingly.
Garnascus - Today at 10:21 AM
Alrighty lets move on to the next question
Lets say its dead hour and its just you on. You are just randomly ghosting around when suddenly you see logs pop up of lethal weapon fire being exchanged between two individuals. One is a server regular the other is someone you do not recognize. You notice neither of them are antagonists, what do you do?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:23 AM
PM both asking what's going on, wind if they don't respond and keep fighting.
Get both sides of the story and work out how it happened.
I'd make sure to stay non-biased, and punish accordingly.
Garnascus - Today at 10:26 AM
alrighty, lets say after you investigate you find that both of these players have had an IC grudge between themselves over many extended rounds. It started just from rude comments to each other, to incident reports filed against one another, then escalated to outright sabotage and fighting between themselves. They finally agreed to a duel to the death and whatever the result they would keep canon.
SirCatnip - Today at 10:28 AM
I'd let them continue, but watch to make sure no foul play happens, and it doesn't get too out of hand.
I think.
Garnascus - Today at 10:29 AM
can you explain what you mean by "out of hand"?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:30 AM
Things like blowing up fuel tanks and venting areas of the station.
Garnascus - Today at 10:31 AM
ahh alright
SirCatnip - Today at 10:31 AM
Or straight up killing people who try to break up the fight, with no RP.
Garnascus - Today at 10:31 AM
understandable.
Alrighty next question
The gamemode is nukeops. You recieve an ahelp from a player claiming someone is powergaming. You jump over to them and find they are a scientist armed with tactical armor and a lawgiver. They are fighting the entire nuke op team in the middle of the research hallway. They are winning. What do you do?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:35 AM
Check records, stats (if mods have access to those), for combat experience in the first place, find out how they got the equipment.
Garnascus - Today at 10:38 AM
you do have access to those
SirCatnip - Today at 10:38 AM
Alright.
I'd PM them asking how they got their hands on all this equipment, and assuming their stats don't hold up, how their character is able to manage this.
Garnascus - Today at 10:40 AM
Alright, when you check the players notes you find a few notes and a warning basically all about validhunting behavior as non-security. Stuff like making weapons "just because", walking around in an EVA suit at all time, breaking cameras the second he sees a blue APC "just in case".
SirCatnip - Today at 10:42 AM
Alright, I'd mention the warnings in PMs, and see how they respond, and possibly give them a temporary ban, depending on severity and responses.(edited)
Garnascus - Today at 10:46 AM
alrighty, last question.  Some players subscribe to the "super serious worksim" server and some players prefer "roleplay but remember this is a game". Essentially this means either RP guidelines must always be strictly enforced or if they are almost always bended or even outright ignored in some situations because "this is a game for fun". can you give me your thoughts on this? do you have a strong alliance to one side?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:47 AM
On the fence, I suppose.
I'd say RP guidelines should be strictly enforced, but some leniency as long as it doesn't break immersion is okay. I guess?
Garnascus - Today at 10:50 AM
alrighty that about covers all the bases here. Do you have any closing comments? Also do you mind if this is posted publicly on your mod app?
SirCatnip - Today at 10:50 AM
No closing comments off the top of my head. I'm alright with this being on my mod app.
Garnascus - Today at 10:51 AM
sweet, ill get it posted shortly then
NEW MESSAGES
SirCatnip - Today at 10:51 AM
Alright.
