Detail Questions
What role do you think game admins serve on our servers?
admin play the role of problem solver wont say a leader because we are all players after all and doing this to only grant the game stay good and fun for everyone as in solving anything in the game from reports, questions ,bugs and rules following issues are problems need to be solved
Why do you want to become an administrator for SS14?
i want to help with my favorite game to stay fun and safe place to all players , I applied before when the salamander server was having overload problems which got solved by reducing the players numbers and I am applying again to still help with other servers not just salamander to make sure no overload happen to other admins and to keep the game going
How do you feel about the current roleplay status on the servers?
to be honest i play on salamander only and the roleplay is getting better each time people really putting efforts like making lore for their characters a story that keep going for few rounds ahead like its HRP on an MRP server and with the power gaming rule applied you see less play to win and more RP based games
Other than banning problematic players, what admin actions do you believe have the biggest positive impact?
answering questions to players and solving bugs as those may cause big problems in games , a misunderstanding to specific thing without right answer could cause a player or bunch of them to make the round bad for everyone else , same for bugs a small bug can cause players to suffer for the rest of the round
Have you ever had a negative experience in the game or with a game admin? If so what, if anything, would you do to prevent other players from experiencing this?
to be honest i never had bad experience with any of wizden admins same for frontier or RMC , but to prevent players from having bad experience I guess it usually happen if admin misunderstands a player or don’t try to get the full story and to solve this I need just to take time to take the whole problem from a different point of views for it to get solved
Have you ever had a good experience with the game or a game admin? If so, what was it?
yeah all the time from admins solving my bugs like the one time the exped planet bugged and caused us the salvage team to be unable to control our characters and admin solved to us , or me choosing wrong role by mistake and admin respawning me or simply by answering my questions about rules and game
Scenario Questions
Scenario 1
It is the start of the round. There are 60 players on the server. The game mode is traitors, traitors have not been selected yet. There are three players who decided to observe the round instead of join it orbiting you. Two of them are encouraging you to “do something funny”.
now the fact that those ghost know its traitor mode mean the game mode was displayed on the round start and everyone in the game know it , so I will wait for around 15 minutes if the traitors didn’t spawn yet I will put a vote for players to restart the round or not as this is a bug and it wont be pleasant for players who joined for that specific mode , I will make the player vote for round restart or keep going with me choosing 5 (or ask about the supposed traitor/crew ration because I don’t know it right now) traitor players randomly, of course if they vote for restart I will restart and choose the traitor game mode again but of course if they choose me giving random traitors , I will ask the people I choose in the Ahelp option if they want to be traitors or not then give them the role so the game mode keep going as it supposed
Scenario 2
This scenario takes place on LRP. The Head of Security has decided to coup the Captain. The Head of Personnel agrees with the Head of Security and has taken up arms in case it is necessary to aid in effecting the arrest of the Captain. The Captain is hiding with the Quartermaster in the cargo shuttle to avoid the Clown who has stolen the captains saber as a non-antag. There are five people named in this scenario. Please describe what actions, if any, you would take in relation to each, and why.
starting with the clown thats not their job for start to do sec job (even tho its not sec job to coup if captain didn’t do anything wrong) I will disarm the clown and give them a warning in the ahelp option because as far as what happened they only stole the saber they didn’t harm anyone yet , for the HOS and HOP I will ask whats the reason for the coup as coup shall not be without admin approval or the captain doing space crimes against the crew and after hearing their part of the story I will go ask the captain and the QM about why is this happening , if the captain did in fact break a rule they will get the warning for it and warning for QM to help them , and I will tell HOS and HOP to keep going with telling them that they should asked the admin first before doing any move like this , and after round end I will give the captain the punishment they deserve like the temporary ban as for QM they didn’t do any action beside hiding the captain so a warning is enough , as if the HOS and HOP decided to do it for fun I will warn them both that any act like this need admin approval and it considered rule breaking and of course after giving both of them pacifist trait and asking the next in security chain command to arrest them for the coup I will give both of them equal amount of time of temporary ban after round
Scenario 3
You are ahelping a player about an issue. The player has no prior noted issues. A few days earlier, an admin had told you that this type of situation should result in a temporary ban for a first offense, and you are confident that this situation is not substantially different from the type that admin was describing. During the ahelp, another admin pings you on Discord with a link to the ongoing ahelp and tells you to just indefinitely ban them and make them appeal. Excluding trialmins and headmins, all admins are equally “ranked”. A headmin is not currently available.
since its first offense then based on the ban rules they deserve nothing than a temporary ban as it would be bad and unfair for this person to get a perma ban while we giving others temporary ban for the same offense
