    Alky - Synthetic Application

    Synthetic Whitelist Application
    Byond ID?
    Alky

    Marine Name
    Ritona "Misfit" Sterling

    Name/Designation of the Synth Character you wish to play
    Ophelia

    Are you familiar with the Synthetic Programming and Guidelines?
    Yes.

    Synthetic Character Story
    Pillars of black litter the view.

    Flickers of light pass on through the skies.

    A thick cacophony of orchestra fills the room.

    A dance is required, but I shan't move.

    "Ophelia."

    Come shadows, they grew.

    A ray of light made their demise.

    The orchestra resumes.

    I should rise, but I shan't move.

    "Ophelia!"

    Errors been made, I was to be carry through.

    The lights turned bright as they materialize.

    Sounds are in agony as they boom.

    I cannot feel my leg, so I shan't move.

    "Ophelia."

    I fade into blue.


    "Shall I continue the report, Sir Ronald?"

    The constant noise of air filtering the room as a man continues to gaze at the stars whilst smoking a cigar. He remains distraught as little lights flicker on the surface, and he remained quiet as ever since his last order. It has been awhile since I last saw Sir Ronald in such distraught behavior; perhaps the operation length is not within his liking. This is Operation Chalice: UPP seized controlled of several remote colonies, operation consisted of several class destroyers and a battleship throughout three distant planets and the USS Almayer was ordered to provide ground forces in the city of Taph on RGS-330. It has been 3 weeks since we've deployed the marines and since then; I have accounted for thirty-six injured marines, and more than sixty-five marine casualties throughout this operation I have attended medical duties and providing relief efforts to our forces.

    "Continue the report."

    Until recently, relief efforts led by civilian hands and a marine detachment around the outskirts of Taph was recently suppressed, and I was caught in the crossfire. I have led a group of civilians to a small structure which it did provide cover from the small-arms fire from the UPP forces, but it did not last long as shells began to fly through the sky, smashing any of the UPP resisters on the field. The building that we took shelter in got caught in the blast, fortunately, I managed to cover much of the rubble from the remaining survivors. It was unfortunate that I was part of a casualties report; it would have caused much dismay for the crew as I do not carry possessions to remind them of me.

    "RGS-217 and RGE-002 reported sucessful, yet no reinforcements for days."

    This is true. We've been maintaining a stalemate for as long as we can, so that our reinforcement can come. I was fortunate to be recovered by a several caring members of Delta who were escorting the civilian resistance operatives around the Taph Outskirts. After my recovery, I was placed back to relieving marines throughout the ship, so much of the morale maintained itself as I assisted the marines to their needs. I remained in this operation in use for an accumulative time of eighteen days, twenty hours, and thirty-three minutes without rest, and as of now we been maintaining the front.

    "You've been up long enough Ophelia. Go to cryosleep, we'll get tea and crumpets after this."

    Shortly after this order, it had been another five days before the fall of Taph. Sir Ronald and all of crew was considered missing in action and the Almayer was damaged to the point of all-systems failure, but reinforcements had secured the Almayer. As I was went online, the Almayer was in drydock, and I was ordered by the head engineer to assist with the engineering duties. They had procured a safebox containing my belongings: a set of broken tea pots and teacups and a black smudged box of indiscernible foodstuff. It appears that Sir Ronald considered his survival and continued the Operation Chalice to his dire end.

    -Operation Chalice.
    More than 50,000 casualties from all sides.

    How do you intend to play your Synth?
    Ophelia is meant to act as a respectable person, she'll heed peoples word and assist if possible. Whether tea is available is unknown, but she can assure service in health, leadership, and maintenance duties throughout the ship.

    Primarily assisting marines with providing medical care to marines if need be. Basically she'll help in any field if possible with medical being her fine suite.

    How familiar are you with support roles? (ie; Medical, MT, Science, SO)
    Command Staff, As a CO Whitelist, I can understand the basics and usage of the Command console or OW consoles. Piloting transport runs as well. Intel gathering may be abit new for me however.

    Medical Staff, I've recognized basic chem knowledge and know almost all steps to surgery or healing to where a scanner may not be needed.

    Requisition Staff, I've remembered quantities of starting equipment, popular loadouts for marines, some specified named marine combinations.

    Engineering Staff, I know well enough to provide repairs for various sets (Floodlights, Generators, PAC Setups), however I do lack info for door hacking.

    Military Police, I tend to stay away from this role in most of my runs, but whenever I do play as a MP, I usually have the MP book to my hand. Mostly reporting issues and continuing on business.

    Why should we whitelist you?
    Fulfilling multiple tasks with an assured chances on completing the tasks with effective hands and means.

    Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason?
    I do not believe so.

    Are you currently banned from any other servers and if so, why?
    No.

    Do you understand that any player - donor or otherwise - can have their whitelist status revoked should they break our rules or the Synthetic Programming Guideline?
    Yes

    an astute gamer observation, but we've taken chances in the past, and this might not end up as an auto deny. will keep you posted.

    Assuming they keep this up.

    Do you truly know synthetic guidelines?

    Do you know why you were dewhitelisted last time?

    Do you know how it's different now?

    How would of each scenario that got you warned, and then dewhitelisted played out now? Assuming you remember each.

    I do know the guidelines, anytime that I was under investigation for any guideline breaks were not definitive at the time. You place harsh punishment yet you have lax rulings and then you begin to press on the player who had broken it. While I may be abit outdated to the ruling to other similar cases. I felt as though I was purely a target to being removed as synthetic. As I said to my previous reports, or atleast tried to imply, It was just coincidence that I had it; I am a forgetful person when it comes temporary things.

    There's only 2 events that I can recall that would make me be dewhitelisted: The Queen Research and the Combat Synth moment which got me dewhitelisted. However, this was prior (I wonder why.) to the new synthetic guidelines; this was when combat synthing was in a state where 1 can do another and look away while the other does the same and gets point at, and I do say that it was due to guideline 5 (Suicidal Actions) and 6 (Combat Engagement) which were rules that can be dissected apart for different reasons. I understand that the new rules is thinking of the round as a whole along with having the role be properly played as though it may be. While the situation was a mess and the result being a synthetic restriction, it was still under the same ruling that is why I committed to it. I will not continue on this on this reply, but I will answer any inquire

    Any other reason was either due to people not telling me, it may been considered minuscule, or I was ignorant in the case.

    I understand that the rules in place now are harsher, but the punishments are still the same as ever which is what it needed to be. I made this application as people were recommending me to go back to being synthetic player, some being synthetic players themselves, and I felt secured in reapplying again because issues that happened throughout my synthetic lifespan are handled.

    And I'm going to act as a child in this last; I feel as if you (Sleepy Retard) hate my character and wanted me to not play as synthetic. Whether it be related to the discord drama, the hate of cynthia's quirk, or because I'm friends with some person.

    I'll also use the warning document to state this:
    Amadeus, 7d suspension for Combat Synthing
    Alicia, warned for Combat Synthing
    Sandra, warned for Combat Synthing.

    These three were all given out by me, primarily, around the same time you were dewhitelisted - there was no targeted attack, I do think your quirk was wholeheartly piss poor. However, I was of the same mindset of someone I considered a friend (Okand) who tried to apply with the same quirk, there was no bias involved - you just perceive it to be because you cannot see everything we did that term.

    I'll clarify as I can:

    Were the new Combat Restrictions because of you?
    Sort of, as a single cause? Absolutely not. Several synthetics had been warned, and suspended around the same time - you just had the self importance to think it was entirely your doing.

    I hate your character:
    Three things. Your normal character? Literally could not care less about it, not a matter. Your synthetic character at the time (basically their quirk) - Yes, I did have a disdain for it, as it was LRP in my eyes. Okand, as I said a friend of mine, got the same treatment with their app. You as a person? I barely know you, honestly.

    Onto the application itself;

    The application shouldn't of been made. Full stop.

    There is a method of reacquiring a lost whitelist you did not follow, which makes me think your ability to read up on changes is next to nil.

    Besides that, the application's story is dull. It's not very interesting, your quirk is "they're respectful" for all purposes, which isn't much of a quirk, but it's workable nonetheless.

    Your competence with all fields is something that is lacking, and something you mention yourself. You don't really know how to hack doors, which is an incredibly basic thing that should be known. Everything else, well. Good enough


    Overall, I don't think you really deserve your whitelist back. You didn't really address any concerns with your dewhitelisting and how they'd play out today, with the new combat guidelines. You completely missed out how to get your whitelist back in the first place, you failed to give a captivating application, and you couldn't even say you're fully competent in regards to Synthetic duties. You also used a false bias excuse to 'wave away' your previous dewhitelisting, trying to soften the severity of it - when you beat the beans out of an Executive Officer in defense of a xenomorph. There isn't an excuse for it, even if you wish there was.

    Engaging a queen, you 'conveniently' had an M15 Frag grenade on you, not a commonly available thing mind you, and threw it at a boiler, and continuing to slash the queen to near death. This was far past the FOB, the frontlines, you were solo. I could rag on you for the reports themselves, and the contents of it, and how even if the rules were lightly subjective, the situation was not subjective - but I don't think that'd be worth my time, after all, if you couldn't put the effort to read how to get your whitelist back, why should I give anymore effort than that?

    This doesn't sound like a person who is taking responsibility for their actions.

    Any reason why you didn't follow the procedure to get your whitelist back on your original synth?

    Wait I got warned at one point for combat synthing?

    Onto the application, or well appeal of removed whitelist. The proper hoops were not met to get your white list back, that I cannot ignore. Ritona in my opinion is a good character and I enjoy any moment I am within your character. I do not know clearly the cause of your removed whitelist but the council sure does and im assuming you do too. I'm in the opinion of you need to do the proper steps indicated for reinstating your whitelist so im gonna need to go ahead and -1. I like you and all but you need to do the proper steps man.
