Description of the incident This complaint regards two incidents, the #ic-announcements after-action report, and the in-game event led by an unknown staff member.
As can be read in the evidence section, Doctor Black, the pediatrician of the child patient "Timmy" speaks in an absurd, brutal tone. The entire note is demeaning, talking about how his "little heart gave out", and ends in an even darker note, talking about how the orphan's next of kin are all dead.
Continuing, there is a secondary post, made by Firecharge, written in a narrator-style perspective. It is poorly written, and ends with the grimdark note "He never made enough money for his surgery" and "Died three days later"
Both announcements (which are supposed to be written in an in-game tone) are completely psychopathic, a doctor would never speak in such a way in a public address, mocking a child with terminal illness. The usage of certain terms like "his little heart gave out" make the text seem even more cruel for the sake of it. This does not fit the tone of our server at all, and paints a horrible image for CM overall.
Going forward, it goes on to directly mock real life institutions like Make-a-Wish, which I do not have to say is ridiculous. This is a server with totally fictional lore, and creating an OFFICIAL event to mock a charity institution, along with terminal/severely ill children and their struggles, again makes this server seem like a 4chan parody.
These posts have originated from an event in-game, featuring Timmy visiting the Almayer and getting to fire pulse-guns, visiting several areas of the ship. I do not have much information about this, but I would kindly request the logs for this event to be pulled, to see if the event, like the announcements made after it, were also completely insane and left of center.
Finalizing in a personal note, I really disliked to see this in our official server, much less a real event and official post by our server moderators and administrators. This is really disappointing, and one of the few times CM has made me feel genuine anger. Out of all types of events that could have happened, I personally believe that this one was one of the worst ever to be ran on this server. This is sickening, and disgusting.
EvidenceWhat resolution are you seeking? A suspension or demotion for those involved. The trialmod should get his trial reviewed.
