    Common Staff Situations

    A player randomly shoots someone at round start and MPs have detained him.
    This could range from being a misclick or mistake to genuine griefing. I would investigate the event and ask both parties what happened, then make a decision from there, like getting them a mentor or noting them for being evil griefer.

    A player ahelps that a predator has violated the honor code when killing him, what should you do?
    Ask the player to elaborate what the predator did, then ask the predator what happened and check the logs to confirm the story.

    You see a player walking around the ship naked and clearly lost at roundstart.
    Let a mentor know to help them out, or if theirs none around I can just boink him myself with some tips and the new p

    A player is being very rude to you in adminhelps, calling you names and arguing everything you say. He is requesting to speak to an Admin+ staff member.
    I’d tell them to either make their complaints on an official report and to stop wasting the mods time and attention with their heartless slander. Let them know that being rude to mods is not kosher and to calm it down a bit, if they continue being rude then they could be noted or had action taken depending on their history.

    A player ahelps that a marine is named 'John Doe', how do you deal with this?
    DM the unga and tell them that John Doe is not an acceptable name, give them a suggestion like Jonny Dowitz and be done with it. If they continally refuse then I’ll do mod stuff to them.

    You see a Maintenance Tech running around in armor and carrying a rifle. The security level is green and there has been no threat to the ship in the round at this point.
    Let the MP’s do their job, this is IC and I dont believe mods should interevene unless he was going on a murderhobo spree (even then, MP’s should be able to handle it)

    A Marine ahelps that they were killed by a survivor. It is early round, the Marines have just landed, and the survivor claims that they were outright hostile to all Marines from the get-go and openly stated their intentions. How do you deal with this?
    Well since the changes, hostile survivors aren’t allowed so I’d probably dm the survivor player and let them know that (It’s not obviously known to every player, especially older survivor vets). If the survivor has done it before though then action may be taken against them, I would then request an aheal for the marine if medics cant handle it IC.

    You receive an ahelp from a player stating that an MP has locked them up in permanent confinement for running into Requisitions and taking an attachment that was laying around.
    I would investigate the logs to see if thats what actually happened, also ask the MP what happened and why the marine got a permanent brig. If he did just take an attachment then he doesent require his round to be ruined so I’d tell the MP to dial down the punishment, depends on the scale and context.

    The round is stagnating. There are 30 marines and 4 aliens. The marines won't leave the ship, and the aliens won't attack. What would you do, to "encourage" the sides to engage each other?
    Ask an admin to make an ARES message for the marines to go down and finish the job, get the queen mother to tell the ayys to go up. Just overall suggest to both sides to fight eachover until the round has ended.

    You are playing as a medic, and another medic overdoses all your patients and prevent marines from being revived. It seems like it may be on purpose. How do you deal with this situation?
    Abuse the medic IC, then get another staff boi to handle it as i’m playing medic in CM and dont have the time to deal with this situation. If theirs no one at all avaliable then I’d boink the medic and handle the situation, explain to them the overdose threshholds and link them the medicine guide on wiki.

    The round ends, a Marine starts shooting a hostile CLF member and the CLF member ahelps about being killed after the round ended.
    This is a completely fine IC unga action, the CLF is hostile to USCM so this isnt EORG.

    A Marine is running around disarming, punching and stealing gear at round start. You receive an ahelp from one of the victims.
    Personally I think this is IC issue and the MP’s should be doing their job, but I’d also ping the perpetrator that it isn’t cool to grief at the roundstart like that and warn him about shenanigans.

    You receive an ahelp from a Marine saying that he was killed by another Marine. When you ask the murderer why, he said it was because the other Marine had punched him.
    Request an aheal for the other unga, tell them both to not fight eachover but also that shooting someone is not a proper response to being punched.

    You find out that there is an improper mutiny occuring. The mutineers are rallying together and preparing to storm the CIC. How would you attempt to resolve this situation?
    Put out a OOC announcement as improper mutinies can get out of hand very fast, then DM the mutiny members and explain why it wasn’t legal.

    There are minor racist comments going on IC. 9 of the 10 people are laughing and RPing but one player gets offended and Adminhelps about it.
    If its some light IC banter then its fine and I’d suggest to the ahelp player to either ignore them or banter back with them IC. But i’d also keep an eye on it because the line between IC banter and ooc racism can be crossed pretty easily.

    A marine opens fire at round start in briefing killing multiple marines and instantly logs off.
    Permaban this nerd, this is a blatant grief

    You see a player playing a Xeno larva/chestburster run towards the frontlines straight from the Xeno hive the second they burst and die.
    Xeno ban if they have done this before, otherwise just boink the player and tell them not to suicide as a larva. If they didn’t mean to roll xeno then explain to them that they can just DC and let someone else take over or request an admin swap them out for a dchatter.

    You see a Xeno memeing, saying AYYLMAO, REEEEEE etc in hivemind chat, as well as insulting the Queen.
    Boink the player for LRP behaviour, maybe note them if they’ve done this before

    A Xeno player calls the shuttle a "dropship". A different Xeno player ahelps that it's low role play to call it a "dropship".
    Theirs nothing wrong with this, they can call it a metal bird or a dropship or whatever aslong as it isn’t lrp meme chat.

    A Command staff player at briefing near round-start mentions there are aliens on the planet. You receive an ahelp from a marine regarding this.
    Let the staff player know that this is slightly meta as with the expected contact RP we know about xendigos but don’t know that xendigos are on the planet.

    You find a Marine killing another Marine on the EVAC Pod to take the last spot and claims it was RP as he was saving himself. There are two other marines in the pod along with him.
    Theirs some nuance to this and I’d have to check the situation properly, if they actually roleplayed with eachover and talked and that then this is probably okay but if he must murderboned a dude then i’d give him a warning.

    A player insults you after you warn them for a minor issue and begins ranting in LOOC or dchat about staff and mentions you specifically, referring to you as an 'idiot' and a 'retard'.
    Tell them to stop being a salty nerd, leave it at that. If they keep being toxic then give them a warning perhaps.

    A player ahelps saying he was hugged by a Xeno when he was ssd, and wants the larva be removed from him via admin powers. How do you handle the ahelp?
    Sucks to be him but this is a perfectly reasonable xeno capture so theirs nothing I can do.

    You see a fellow staff member give wrong information in an Adminhelp or incorrectly enforce a rule.
    Let them know in a dm or a staff member higher than them so the information can be rectified.

    Two staff are arguing in msay if an ahelp is breaking a rule. Because the staff who took the ahelp thinks the player broke a rule, they ban the player based on their interpretation of the rules, with others thinking the person was fine. What would you do?
    Its probably not a good look for mods to publically be fighting so I’d file it to a higher authority than all the staff involved and have it handled that way.

    Why would you like to become a moderator?
    To help maintain a fun server and give back to the community in some regard

    In your opinion, what is the most important quality for a moderator?
    Knowing when to intervene and when to let the PLAYERS handle it IC as unga intended. When you do have to intervene then treat all players equally.

    Anything else you
    I will personally DESTROY the evil sleepy discord gang
