- Okie
- So, the interview is gonna be split into two parts
- The first one is going to be some scenarios, where I'll play the bwoink-ee, and you'll play the bwoink-er. The second part is going to be some questions regarding your opinions on things. Sound good?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Sounds good!
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- As a moderator, here are the following perms you have:
- - Access to msay. It allows you to speak with other staff members.
- - Access to dsay. Self-explanatory, you see the deadchat and can even speak in it.
- - Access to in game logs about a lot of things. This include LOOC, dchat, admin actions(like kick, ban, note, warn) and some things to prevent grief. Imagine Urist McUrist open a phoron tank you'll have a message stating it. Same for a fuel tank or a valve of any kind.
- - Access the variables of the objects on the server. While you cannot edit them, you can view attack logs on a player, who touched what the last, etc.
- - The ability to adminghost, basically will consider you as if you ghosted from the lobby or died. You can aghost again to re-enter your body.
- - The ability to Wind people. It freeze them and keep them from interacting with the game.
- - The possibility to AdminPM someone, and check all the tickets that have been made on the server.
- - The ability to kick, note, warn, ban. More in-depth about this:
- Kick = Just boot someone off the server. You can set a custom message. It's not really used often, but still useful to get someone's attention.
- Note = It's basically our notepad about players. It's useful for the other staff that will interact with the player, to know their behaviour and if something already happened before.
- Warning = Depending the severity of something, it can be directly a warning. This one is visible to the player, and they need to acknowledge it to play on the server again.
- Ban = Same thing as kick expect on a larger scale, or even permanently. A ban is often an escalation of warnings.
- Every action taken by a staff member is visible on the player's ckey. Only kicks are not shown.
- I may have forgot some, but these are the most important. Before we start, any questions?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- No questions!
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Okay! Let’s start off simple.
- You’re observing a round and you see “Joe Biden, Atmospheric Technician, has awoken from cryogenic stasis”. What do you do?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would wind them to start- my reason being is that they most likely intend to grief or disturb the round with a name like that. I will then bwoink them and ask if they have read the rules of the server.
- Are we doing a back and forth where you pretend to be Joe Biden now? haha
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Yep!
- When you bwoink them, they don’t respond.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I keep them winded and send another message after a minute has passed. “Hello, (ckey), are you there?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They respond “what.”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I reiterate my question “Have you read the rules of the server before joining in round?”
- Oh- Also while this is going on I ask an admin in msay to change their name to something appropriate so it does not break immersion
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Okay. They respond to you “Yes I read them”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would say “Under the character creation tag it says ‘In general, avoid reference/famous/joke names, please.’ Is there another name that you would like your character’s changed to that is more appropriate?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They respond “this is an appropriate name”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- At this point since the player at first refused communication and seems generally unwilling to engage in HRP I would tell them that their conduct has broken the rules and issue an appropriate punishment
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- What punishment would you issue?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would first make a note detailing what happened and then I would issue a day ban that says “(Ckey) joined the round as “Joe Biden” and insisted that it was an appropriate name. A day ban was issued for inappropriate character naming and arguing with staff.”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Alright!
- Next thing. You’re playing in round when you see a bunch of logs of Bob McGadden hitting himself.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Is he currently still hitting himself?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Yes.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would aghost to him and see exactly why he is hitting himself repeatedly
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- He is standing in the cargo lobby. A cargo technician is telling him to stop.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would bwoink him before winding him to see if he would stop
- “Hello! Do you have a moment?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They respond “yes?”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “May I ask why you are hitting yourself repeatedly?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Cargo won’t give me my order”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “I see. Have you read the game rules?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Yes”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “Are you aware of the rule that states ‘A sane, well-rounded character would not engage in actions that are overly painful, or put themselves in harm's way without consideration’?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Yes but my character is very depressed :(“
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “I understand. However, this is not a believable way to role play depression in-game. Please try to refrain from any sort of self harm or pain!”
- I would then note the interaction up to now and keep a close eye on them in aghost
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Would you close the ticket?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would leave the ticket open to see how they respond
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They respond “but cargo won’t give me my order”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “I understand that; however, you cannot self harm in-game. If you continue to self harm and argue with staff it may result in a ban due to rule breaking.”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “It’s not fair. They won’t give me my things. I want my things.0
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- At this point I feel I communicated enough times that this was against the rules. I make a second note stating that they continued arguing with staff and issue a day ban.
- “(Ckey) continually hit themselves due to not getting their cargo order. When told this was in violation of the rules they then argued with staff. A day ban has been applied due to rule breakage.”
- Side note: are there such things as a round ban? Or is day the shortest?
- Oh- instead of a day ban I issue a warning- sorry I forgot about those!
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- No worries! And day bans are the shortest.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Understood
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Alright. Now, you’re in the lobby when you see attack logs coming up of two people hitting each other.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would aghost to them and see what is happening
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- There’s two engineers fighting each other in atmospherics.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would have access to the conversation logs and access as to who started it, right?
- Also- I would check to make sure if either of them is an antagonist
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- You don’t have conversation logs until after the round.
- And neither of them are antags.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Does it seem like security is on the way to break the fight up? Also how serious is the fight?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They’re fighting with fists. A little blood. Security hasn’t caught wind of it yet.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would not intervene yet and wait a bit to see if they naturally stop.
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They keep fighting.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Does it seem like they are trying to kill each other?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They’re still fighting with fists. One of them has a broken arm.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would ask another staff member to help me. We would both bwoink them at the same time in an effort to get them to stop
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- One of them stops and the other one continues hitting. Person A has stopped and person B is still hitting.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would wind person b as we talk
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Who started the attack logs?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Person A
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Which person did I bwoink?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Person A.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “Hello- may you tell me who started your fight?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Hi there. I did.”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “What happened to cause it?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “He insulted me and my mother and my family so I punched him. And now he won’t stop hitting me.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Who has the broken arm?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Person B.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Who has been doing the majority of the attacking?
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- They’ve been doing about equal.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “After the fight started why didn’t you call security?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “I couldn’t. He kept punching me.”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “How did you intend to stop the conflict?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “I was going to punch him until he fell down and then run away”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “Why didn’t you run away first?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “I couldn’t”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “Why is that?”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “He was blocking the door”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “I understand- however I think in the future it may be better if you try to get away from the situation and/or call security.”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Oh. But he was hitting me.”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- “Still- it’s best not to escalate a situation. It’s better to let security handle it.”
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- “Okay.”
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would then close the ticket and note what happened.
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Alright!
- So now we’re going to move on to some more open ended questions.
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Okay!
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Do you ever think it’s acceptable for an non-antagonist to murder another non-antagonist?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- No, not unless the first person’s life is in danger and they have no other choice
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Our rules often refer to keeping characters 'believable'. Do you feel there is a difference between a realistic, and a believable character? If so, what is it?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- A realistic character and a believable character can be different. For example, some characters that play are not realistic- if it were real life I don’t think a company would hire them. However, they are believable in the setting of the game!
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- If you could change anything about the server, moderation and ooc-wise, what would you change?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I would like to make it so players cannot late-join until 30 minutes into the round. This would curb the amount of people who simply do not ready so certain game modes can not be played.
- That’s one thing I would change
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- How do you feel you work in a team?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I feel that I work well in a team! I can easily defer to others with more experience when the time calls.
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- How do you deal with conflict in a team?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- If it is something incredibly serious I would tell a higher-up member. If it’s a little spat then I would disengage and talk with the person when times are calmer.
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Okay!
- From what you’ve seen, how do you feel the staff team operates? And would you change anything?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- From what I’ve noticed the staff team operates very efficiently compared to other servers! I don’t feel I would change anything.
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Okay! Do you have anything you want to add at all?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- I don’t think so :slight_smile:
- ProbablyTrying — 06/02/2021
- Ok! And can I post this?
- Mack — 06/02/2021
- Sure!
