Skill issue.
No, like, really: There’s IOs for people who want to be secret agents, survivor for people who want to be hard-edge civilian vigilantes, and CLs for people who signed-on to play the paperwork goblin.
This is a role that is entrenched into SS13’s DNA: You can find it on /TG/, Yog, Paradise, Skyrat, and two on Bay. Even on servers were NanoTrasen is the dominant corporation in the galaxy, on an entirely NanoTrasen-owned station, with a staff entirely-staffed by NanoTrasen employees: You aren’t special. There are not any clauses (that I could find, and I’ve played on some of these servers as long as CM) that give them any special privileges or places them in a special, snowflake offshoot of the chain of command that makes them untouchable.
Not a lot of people play these roles, and not a lot of people nail them. Yet, they exist for those that do and give them all the tools they need to thrive. Hell: a lot of the other community’s even give great advice that could be used to play your CL better!
I understand that some people feel like they should be allowed to play a role as disruptively and obnoxiously as possible and still have an excuse to get away with it, PWNRA, but I feel that any of those loopholes that disempower other players so that you can be the main character have every right to be closed.
I’m a woman, by the way, not a “mister”: I’d know a thing or two about having to jump through a bunch of hoops and piles of paperwork in order to still be ignored and disrespected. Some people just don’t have the strength of will to do it, and that is okay. However, saying that there’s no room for fun or its too difficult to be rewarding in the end is laughable.
