    Flerpin - Synthetic Application

    Synthetic Whitelist Application
    Personal InformationByond ID?
    Flerpin

    Marine Name
    Cass "ANFO" Mens

    Other Whitelist Applications
    None

    Character InformationName of the Synth Character you wish to play
    Pawn

    What is your Synth�s quirk and personality?
    Extremely helpful to the point where he seems as though he's patronizing you. Always has an upbeat attitude and will always offer encouraging words, even if you're limping around with only one leg.

    Why do you want to be a synthetic/why should we whitelist you?
    I really like being able to support marines and a lot of times, as I'm going around as either Engineer or Medic, I always wished I could do more such as being able to restore power to the hospital as a Medic or being able to perform surgery on the fly when I'm engineer.

    Synthetic Character Story
    https://pastebin.com/psdGcyAq

    Here is a pastebin story of an interview with Pawn after he was rescued from a emergency pod.

    ExperienceHow familiar are you with Engineering?
    Very familiar. It's not just enough to set up cades and call it a day. There's a finesse to setting up foldable cades and regular cades that can mean the difference between a choke point that can hold or a choke point that will fall quickly. I also know how to effectively hack and fix electronics and machines such as Airlocks and APCs.

    How familiar are you with Command?
    I'm not as familiar with command as I would like to be. I do know, however, that communication is -extremely- important. Being able to tell your marines about certain situations is highly prized, if not game changing. A command that does not act and does not guide marines will quickly find their marine force in shambles.

    How familiar are you with Medical?
    I am extremely familiar with Medical. I know how to effectively apply simple chems and splints. But I also know how to effectively analyze medical analyzer read outs. Is a marine suddenly getting oxygen damage even though they're perfectly fine? They probably have a popped lung or heart damage and must be given peridaxon. I also know how to effectively utilize surgery as well using only a medical analyzer so that I can properly perform FOB surgery.

    How familiar are you with Requisitions?
    I know quite a bit about requisitions. Obviously, at the start of a round, it can be very hectic as marines will be needing attachments and specialists will require their ammo. I would do my best to give the marines their attachments then quickly give their specialists their orders. If I have time or there is still no requisition staff, I would then work on a FOB crate to send down when marines first land. After that, I will listen to call outs on the radio to see what gear the marines need while also being careful about the requisitions budget.

    What are some scenarios that you can perform combat in? Give us a brief example.
    Synths can only partake in combat if a xenos is directly attacking them or if a xenos is directly attacking a human that is near them. Additionally, synths -are- allowed to subdue so long as it within Marine Law and the combatant is a human but are not allowed to kill.

    ConfirmationsAre you familiar with the Synthetic Programming and Guidelines?
    Yes

    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

    Do you understand that you cannot advertise your application on any platform for votes. Do you also understand you may not edit this application 1 hour after it has been posted?
    Yes

    Have you been banned from CM in the last month for any reason? Do you have any active jobbans?
    Yes

    Are you currently banned from our Discord, and if so, why?
    Yes

    Other InformationDo you have anything else you would like to include about your application?
    Ba-ba-booey.

    Please explain these. Even if you just checked yes on accident this reflects extremely poorly on your app and how much effort you put into it.

    So there was an error on the second part. I was not banned on the Discord and that was a mistake.

    The first one was correct. I had been banned by Hunk around a week or so ago when I decided to repeat a copy pasta in OOC chat when the round was ending. That was poor decision making on my part. The ban had been originally for seven days, as with many others who had been banned for the same reason. However, for reasons I am not entirely sure, the ban had been lifted after approximately a day and a half.

    If you can't follow game rules, I have no confidence you would be able to follow synth guidelines and marine law and server rules all at the same time. OOC spam also comes off as incredibly immature and memey/LRP.

    Your combat section answer also does not fully explain the scenarios. When do you stop fighting? If a sentinel is neuroing a marine next to you on the frontlines, are you allowed to kill it with a fireaxe?

    Since a mere week ago you were banned for ooc spam, a simple and easy to follow rule, you are not ready to become a synth, where there are many much harder and more complex rules.

    Fair enough. I realize that the ban is a red flag and I make no attempts to hide that fact.

    But I think the combat section answer speaks for itself. Obviously there can be a dozen different scenarios that the Synth can do and I wanted to keep the answer brief and concise such as what the tip said in the box when I was filling out the form. If a Sentinel was neuroing a marine at the frontlines, the obvious answer is to simply help the marine up so that they can get back to safety, preferably without getting friendly fired in the process. The safety of the marine is important along with the safety of synthetic unit as well. However, what if the marine and sentinel were alone? It wouldn't be very prudent to simply help up the marine as the Sentinel could continue to neuro-spam and keep the Marine slowed and stun-locked. If the synth had it, they could try to use a roller bed to wheel the marine to safety but that poses the risk of having the roller bed destroyed by one slash. Another option is the Synth to directly attack the Sentinel for its hostile actions to the point where it either relents and runs away, the marine is able to run away or the xenos dies in its attempts to attack the stunned marine.

    Again, there are far too many scenarios and I wanted to keep the answer short and concise.

    good player, good story, it made me feel annoyed so it's clear you did put some depth into the story.

    Big issue comes from your bans and your recent support role practice.

    I appreciate you owning up to the bans in your responses, that's a good characteristic to have. However, it can't be really left ignored that you haven't played much support roles other than Cargo and Engineering in the past based on vouches I've been informed of, I would like to see you play more Medical as its one of the most important for Synthetic overall, and try to refrain from overdoing non-support roles during your application process, it'll make us a lot more capable of voting in favour of you.

    The ban is problematic as we can't set precedents on allowing fresh-banned people into WLs, although you show great potential for the Synth WL and I'd accept you if you didn't have this ban and were missing a few support vouches.

    Should you apply again, I want you to:
    - avoid getting in trouble again with staff: notes, bans, jbans, whatever.
    - diversify the support departments you play, and play them actively so people can vouch for you.

    I won't echo what optimist said, personally I think you should play more support while this app is up, I've only see you PFC recently.

    What Optimisticdude said. Also the whole app just barely fits on the screen of my laptop, put more effort into your next try please, you have all the time in the world to prepare a great app.

    Good evening,

    Your quirk is alright, it is unique enough with the excessiveness beyond being an incredibly helpful/optimistic synth so it can definitely spice up rounds and provide situations where cool RP can occur. The story illustrated the quirk effectively albeit it felt short. That just might be how pastebin looks for me but you were able to show enough effort through it.

    I can vouch for you on your skills, I have seen you a lot as marine medic and engineer, as well as a doctor+requisitions at some point. I can't remember seeing you as any command role but I haven't played in a few days so that may have changed.

    The only issue I have is with your combat question, as you do not point out that synths cannot engage in combat in frontline/when nearby large groups of marines.

    The full situation with your ban has been explained, and it does not appear to be an issue with yourself and that the ban should not have happened. With your transparency in this issue I trust you'll be fine and not a shitter.

    +1,

    Cheers.
