Ban Appeals, Whitelist and Staff Applications:
Stobarico's Commander Application - CM-SS13 (Mind the bad english, this was 9+ years ago )
Have you been banned in the last 3 months?
Nope
If so, why?
From what I remember at least, my only ban was a spec job ban I got because I lost power IRL and couldn’t reconnect, but I can’t find it on the old forums.
Have you read the role guidelines and expectations?
Yep
Why do you wish to become a Fax Responder?
I’ve always enjoyed HRP in general, and found very frustrating that sometimes my actually important messages would go unanswered, and I wish to be able to fix that frustration other players may feel.
Fax responder is also a quite laid back role (considering the other roles in CM) which I can play while doing something else.
What do you consider the purpose of this role?
To provide realistic and professional responses to faxes people ingame may send, acting as one of the faction’s High Command, Weyland’s higher offices and the Provost’s office.
While doing this, you have a huge impact in the round considering your authority, and may have to make big decisions, or be a the one who delievers the decision of the staff (such as approval for arresting a CO).
And mainly as Weyland, you should also spice-up the CL’s rounds, maybe giving them objectives and answering their faxes.
When would you consider it appropriate to use your phone?
It should be used to contact other fax responders if necessary.
However, regarding calling the Almayer the phone is to be used in very rare and emergencial situations, and should be judged in a case-by-case basis, the rule of thumb being, try to NEVER use it to contact the on-round players.
If playing WY Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CL?
Any non-antag objective in general, the ones in the wiki are good examples, however, I think it would be very interesting to check which Division the CL works for, and then assign an objective based on that. Examples being:
- Spec. Services: Promote a new flavor of souto, or collect exotic plants/meat from the mission location, or retrieve a special formula from the mission location.
- Corp. Relations: NDA is the big one here, but other options could be getting the CC on your side via bribes, try to spin a good narrative in general, to try and make the fiasco look like an accident.
- Comms.: Most I can think on this one is getting the USCM to restore all communication towers via some kind of incentive (like money) or survey a good location to install a full telecomms suite with long-range communications for the future (asking for photos of the location and such).
- PMC Dispatch: Recover the PMC’s gear, Recover the PMC tags or bodies, erase the evidence of PMC presence on the colony, many oportunities here.
- Data and Research: Most oportunities here I reckon, aligning the Research team to WY, recovering artifacts from temples, recovering an egg, recovering important stuff (like the nuke disk on certain maps), assist with the creation of a friendly xeno hive, try to get chemicals from the researchers with medical or aesthetic applications that can be mass produced and sold, so on.
- Econ. Div.: Recover important materials from the colony, align the cargo technicians and req. officer to WY, recover expensive items from the colony, try to get the USCM to minimize damages on structures (mainly techy structures such as labs, telecomms rooms, reactor rooms, etc.).
- Psi Div.: W̶͈̠̿I̷̞͕̳̣͝P̷̟̟͕̎͂͝E̴̘͇̗̩̩̕ ̵̘̅̂Ą̴͉̜͗L̵͖͉̄́̅̓̆L̸̘͇͒̚ ̷̭̍Ë̸̳̘͍̺́V̴̝̹̍͗́Ï̸̳̮̣͉̀͋͆͘ͅD̸͚̟̥͚̥̈́̈́̿E̴͔͚͈̦̒͌̄͊̋ͅN̴̡͉͙̂͂̀͜C̴͔͙̚E̴̮̽ ← In reality no one can even play this division in normal circumstances, so, [REDACTED]
If playing Press Responder, what objectives do you consider within your power to give the CC?
A few good ones I can think of is capturing evidence of xenomorph existance, capturing evidence of Weyland’s involvement (such as photos of their labs, etc.), getting the statements of the survivors, so on.
