Description of the incident Gentle Timeline of Staff abuse.
- Staff member revived the XO after he was gibbed.
- Staff member then giving the marines Defcon 1 when they where nowhere close to it.
- Xenos push and successfully stop the defcon bomb; killing a good chunk of the marines.
- Shuttle leaves with the rest of the marines.
- Queen lays down to heal and then goes and fights the predator -- killing him.
- Queen then crashes, they wait a minute for her to come back.
- Shuttle is back, all the xenos pile in to kill the marines still on it.
- Staff member then proceeded to launch the shuttle with the hive on it while they were still getting ready.
- Staff member makes Ares announce that the anti aircraft gun (since when has this existed?) ((You would think that the non-existent anti aircraft gun would have fired any time during the UPP...pirates...etc.)) is loaded and it will now fire at the shuttle. (Since when do AI's randomly fire guns without being commanded by command at their own shuttle?)
- The Queen says that it won't happen because they are almost there.
- Grim said "Oh yes it will!"
- Dubszors then gibs all the xenos on the shuttle.
- Salt was induced by people that played that round from the start that where finally at their objective to have some impatient admin(s) ruin their round by abombing them and then joking and laughing at them, telling them it's their fault for delaying. (How are you delaying when you are flying towards the ship...I still fail to see the logic.)
Also why are aliens always responsible for ending the round? Marines have defcon, already so if they don't do their job and don't get that defcon... Why do the admins make it the xenos responsibility to do their job for them? This is constant, at least once a day (if we're lucky) or multiple times a day (if we're unlucky) someone on the staff team is either Queen Mothering the xenos to suicide push for no reason, when they still have a viable chance to win; just because they are impatient.
Now there was chat in dead chat about the xenos delaying, but honestly they weren't delaying. I do not personally see how xenos killing the remaining marines, killing the predators, going onto the drop ship to kill the ones that were still on it when said drop ship returned, and getting the resting xenos on the ship is them delaying.
Once the xenos where still setting up on the ship and checking that everyone was on it ARES popped up and was like "regained control of the ship, recalling it and sending anti aircraft missiles." That alone is the big what the heck out of this entire situation. Then said admin recalled the shuttle up, and gibbed all the xenos on the shuttle except the queen; who managed to survive. When the shuttle landed it was surrounded by 50+ marines just waiting to kill her, so her hours of work was undone by a staff member who wasn't happy with the idea of the hive fighting on the ship....I guess?
This was just a blatant case of admin abuse, those xenos and the hive had been working for hours to work their way into that fob and the queen was clearly trying to learn. In short...stop disregarding xenos players time & effort please.
Evidence Logs.
How you would punish the accused For Dubszor - Removal from staff, or at least removal from admin.
For the rest of the staff - Stop the Queen Mother suicide unga requests. Stop abombing the xenos when it's the marines that are just standing behind four walls of fobs no doing anything either. Stop making xenos sololy responsible for the tempo of the round, there's two sides, make both sides responsible.
But I get it, 6 warriors and no queen...sure suicide request because no one can go queen. But just last night we had robust Queen's two times in a row.
The first robust Queen lost her entire hive to an unga rush, but she and TWO other xenos, killed 70+ marines between the three of them and restarted the hive AND won. Ending with 13-ish xenos; she ended up being called The Bloodsoaked Empress by the end.
But if it was the admin that did this abomb there last night... I fear she wouldn't have even had the chance to try. Second queen did the same thing as the first robust queen but lost; still managed to kill a great portion of the marines.
So I beseech you. Stop ruining rounds for xenos. It's not fun. It does not preserve rp/the round/the thrill of beating a hoard of marines, and it just irks the xeno players.
