What are you reporting?:
Behavior involving Misconduct
Description of the incident:
I was running around as a larva because it is nearly 4am and I am was not paying full attention at roundstart. A survivor saw me, and I fled back the way I came. It chased me while shooting, then after I went crit around a corner they came up, still chasing me, and melee’d me to death. I ahelped it, and SmellyHippie pasted this rule to me. “Survivors cannot kill roundstart larvas before the larvas have had a chance to evolve. Larvas can evolve after approximately 60 seconds from roundstart.”
Round starts at the 5 minute timer, and they abused that fact to avoid doing something about the issue, despite the rule first stating that they cannot kill roundstart larva before they have had a chance to evolve. By SmellyHippie’s own statement, the rule either contradicts itself entirely, which makes little sense to me, or they were simply refusing to take action for whatever reason.
There had been so evolution options available yet, so that part of the rule should be held. Doubly so considering the fact that I realized where I was and was fleeing back to the caves, and was chased by the surv.
When I stated this information to them, they simply refused to hear it despite being inherently wrong, and closed the ticket with the staff report link. To me this reeks of a malicious intent to not help me with the issue, which as an assistant manager, is unacceptable.

08:28:16: PM From SmellyHippie: Why did you go there as a larva?
08:28:26: Reply PM from-Kyogon: I was just running around
08:28:40: Reply PM from-Kyogon: I saw him and realized where I was, tried to book it and he chased while shooting
08:29:33: Reply PM from-Kyogon: He also specifically came up and knifed me while I was crit
08:34:51: Reply PM from-Kyogon: Can you break the weeds on my body so they can drag to core
08:38:22: PM From SmellyHippie: For future reference, per the rules; “Survivors cannot kill roundstart larvas before the larvas have had a chance to evolve. Larvas can evolve after approximately 60 seconds from roundstart.” This is 60 seconds after the round starts, unfortunately. Not 60 seconds after you’ve spawned in.
08:39:36: Reply PM from-Kyogon: The rules themselves state they cannot kill roundstart larva before the larvas had a chance to evolve. There was no evolution options available. So by those rules you pasted, this isn’t allowed.
08:39:55: Reply PM from-Kyogon: 60 seconds had not passed, so he should have let me just run back to caves
08:40:19: PM From SmellyHippie: 60 seconds did pass. The round was 5 minutes in. Survivors cannot kill roundstart larvas (ROUNDSTART LARVAS)
08:40:44: Reply PM from-Kyogon: The rules themselves state evolution. There were no evolution options available. Therefore by your /own/ statement it isn’t allowed.
08:41:23: Reply PM from-Kyogon: If it was 60 seconds from roundstart and not evolution, the rules would state that.
08:41:29: PM From SmellyHippie: the rule states roundstart larva before evolution, and then the rule corrects itself by saying 60 seconds from roundstart, not 60 seconds from spawning in as a non-roundstart larva.
08:42:10: Reply PM from-Kyogon: So why is there even a section about evolution if survs could in theory kill a larva the moment it spawns because the round is started 5 minutes in?
08:42:37: PM From SmellyHippie: Staff Reports - CM-SS13 - Forums I am not arguing this with you any longer
08:42:41: Ticket resolved!
