Which Staff Protocols (//showthrea...-and-Protocols) were broken Staff Conduct:
Preserve the RP and enjoyment of the server:
‘If no one admin helps (ahelp) a complaint, or seems to be complaining or taking issue with it, it may be best to let it go.’ I do not know if Schalkguy was ahelped, this needs to be checked.
‘If there is a group running and fighting put the individuals to sleep that seem to be causing an issue, inform them through LOOC or OOC that they've been put to sleep by a staff member, then deal with them accordingly.’ I was not informed that I would be put to sleep in LOOC or PMs. ‘Make sure that other people don't steal from them or anything of the sort.’ I had to tell the xenos to back off due to the admin-sleep in LOOC, if I am correct in my understanding that allowing the admin-slept to get surrounded mid-combat is not protecting them.
‘Do not try to heavily influence the game unless it is for very good reasoning such as for an event.’ Contributing to the death of the survivors is heavily influencing the game, especially when the situation could be observed first. For survivors, the first 20 minutes IS the game.
Protocols:
Send a personal message (PM) to the violator asking them to explain their actions:
‘Give them a respectable time to respond’ Mid-combat and the survivor rush is not a good time to ask without observing. It is high adrenaline, and it contributed to my poor behavior.
Investigate the situation:
Simple observation would have seen the shivering, the telltale sign of stimulant use. A simple log check would have shown the ultrazine consumption.
Description of the incident During the round, on or about 10-16-2021 10:30 am CST, on Science Annex, Schalkguy pmed me during the survivor rush (the first 20 minutes until the marines arrived). While I understand that the trial-admin was attempting to ensure rules were being followed, it would not have required much observation to see my character shivering from the ultrazine. I thought this would be evident enough, so I replied to the inquiry with ‘cheat engine’ while under the duress of combat. ‘Cheating’ would have been more accurate, because that is what ultrazine feels like until your heart explodes, but yes, I understand that joking about cheating is not appropriate. While running, and being chased by xenos, I was admin-slept by Schalkguy, and had to ask the xenos to back off in LOOC (something the admin is supposed to do) after being slept I, for what I am deeply apologetic for, called Schalk a “retard” out of sheer frustration about being slept during combat. This gave the xenos time to catch up with me and the other survivors, resulting in my death and the other survivors. I was warned about talking about pms in d-chat, which I explained as ill-timed ‘Bwoinks’ and admin-slept. I thought that was a fair explanation without going into details as to why I was not there to help the other players. As for my note history of toxicity, I have some issues. I am human, it's pretty easy for me to lose my temper. I give people my best, but sometimes I just can't handle everything. My notes may be bad but they don’t say the entire backstories, feelings, and events that happened leading up to the point of the note. As you can see, I am way more calm and well spoken now, than I was during the stress of combat.
Evidence The logs
How you would punish the accused Play survivor to understand how important those first 20 minutes of the round are, and how PMs are incredibly disruptive during combat. The Staffer should be noted for failing to follow protocols. If the reviewer believes that Schalkguy acted against Staff Conduct and Protocols, and therefore prompting my behavior, I ask that this most recent note be removed, or modified to state that I was noted for joking (inappropriately) about a Rule 5 Mechanical Exploits.
