Description of the incident To put it simply, I believe that the "caracal cult" event that was occuring on the ERT station was frivolous and breaks the "maintain rp and enjoyment" rule outlined in staff RoC.
The addition of the caracals was initially very benign as it was in the ERT station where a bunch of survivors were given caracals to fool around with. However, as more caracals were added and colour-coded, they soon made their way on the Almayer during Hijack.
The caracals wandered around the Almayer and as a process, kept making LRP comments and spamming "KILL" around xenos and marines during the fight. At several points during the round, caracals had actively blocked players from fighting each other, and undermined other player interactions ICly by the aforementioned spam and LRP. I think that's not very fun if it's intruding on other people's fights during a tense moment in Hijack when there's a fleet of caracals spamming dumb shit and blocking people.
Given that ito was the one to spawn and guide them to the shuttle for their deployment, and with the introduction of the events channel to help promote healthy and effective event-organizing, I think that this event was inappropriate for a manager to be hosting in the 1st-place and letting it go too far.
