Describe your suggestion: New Grenades/Raid Tools and Further Incentivizing Raids

Such as:

     - Stun Grenades: Slow movements/sensitivity

     - Smoke Grenades (If there is no noticeable impact on performance)

     - Weapon Strip Grenade: Forces players to drop all guns to pick them back up (Removing this for minge concerns)

     - Flak Jackets: Reduces damage dealt from explosives (Maybe slows movement)

     - Ballistic Shields Sold by BMD: Helps in team raids

     - Making Printers Pocketable: Drops out of pocket if they die, but it would give more criminal classes an incentive to raid (BadGraphics' idea)

Link To Relevant Addons (If Any): N/A

How will this improve the quality of Aether?: I agree with the idea that raiding is a bit unfair right now.  There is not much of an incentive to raid, and I also feel it is unfair to the raiders with the current basing rules.  Raiders don't seem to have much of a chance against someone who knows what they're doing and is able to make a half decent zig-zag base.  I think adding more raiding tools would make raiding more appealing to players and keep the defenders more active on the server due to an increased threat of being raided.  What I listed is more of a kick-starter for other people's ideas, I just wanted to throw some stuff out there.  All in all, I wanted to hear more what everyone else thinks, but I feel there should be more tools and more of an incentive to raid.

+/- Leaning +

- Same reasons Devi listed, I would just like to see you around more in game.

- Hanging around some questionable players and you all "rebelled" against the PD which meant you ran in as dwarves and started knifing any PD member for no reason.  You yourself didn't knife anyone, but you were promoting this behavior.

+/-

- Interesting PW's, but I have never had a bad interaction with you nor have I seen you have a bad impact on others.

+1

- I think having more late night staff would be a great thing, and you seem to be very active.

- Some answers are slightly off, but good app overall.

first off he was afk and he gave me toolgun perms dont look at me second off his base was over 100 props anyways which is tmod abuse

- Why would you mess up something that someone put effort into, perms or not.  Also, it was an RP Base with a building sign up.

- The only reason it wasn't for longer is because you both need to chill out, if it was secluded and away from other players, it wouldn't have been nearly as bad.  The issue stems from the fact that it interfered with other players.

He constantly teleports him for doing his hits or doing anything that makes him upset in any way. He's literally tried to get MM punished for NLR when he broke NLR right before so he gave up on it.

he even taunted me 

- If either of you have video evidence or anything of the sorts, make a staff report.

- Honestly think enough has been said, TooCooTk, ban appeals are not over a matter of opinion, more so a matter of fact.  I suggest you don't personally attack other players and simply state why you think you should be unbanned with proof of what occurred.  The behavior you're demonstrating currently is part of the reason you got banned again.  Chill out, and whenever you come back I heavily suggest you don't continue this behavior.

- You were both told to stop, and immediately after the sit you both went straight back to killing each other.  Both of you were causing issues for other players, hence the ban.  And this is immediately after getting unbanned for similar offences.

i did not hit anyone else at all

- You killed ObeseDora by crossfire which from watching your clip you were swinging a bat in a crowd.  Crossfire is bound to happen when you are doing something like that, and I even let you go without a warn in the sit telling you to stop trying to kill your friends in crowded areas.  

- Immediately after letting you go, you and astroo went right back to killing each other, and astroo shot Yami five times and killed another player.  You were both effecting other players' gameplay after being told to stop.

- Minge is trolling or being disruptive to other people's gameplay.

I’d say it’s a +1 for me, I feel like Jordan deserves a second chance. 

Depends what games 🙂

- Any shooters/competitive games, I realized I was a shithead for it and stopped recently.

- Once again, my apologies for handling that night so poorly.  I should have taken each player into a sit, there is literally a staff meeting talking about it, and I should have taken into account that you could have been friends with the players killed.  When you get into the server I will reimburse you myself and ask to have your warn set to just the slur, it sounds like you are being honest.  You should be unbanned by the time you get to this.

The Bug You're Experiencing: I bought attachments from a party member, and when they timed out it broke my guns then crashed my game. It could have just been a one time thing, but it crashed my game so may be worth looking into.  I had the bug sort of fix itself by invholstering my UMP then re-equipping the attachments, but when I switched weapons all my attachments went invisible again.  After attempting to invholster and re-equip attachments the third time my gun completely bugged and would not let me ADS, a minute later my game crashed.

Can you reproduce the bug, if so, how?: Buy attachments, then have the player leave that sold you the attachments.

No one called and @ on him

- Yami called the sit on him.  Small part of the story as a whole, but Yami did call a sit on him for the slur as well as the MRDM.  It doesn't excuse me not taking him into a sit, and I know it is even stated in the staff meeting archives.  I really would just like to know more about why he killed those four people.  Could this have been settled if I had taken him into a sit from the start?  Yes, but the lack of a sit does not excuse what may be MRDM.

- I really just want to hear Nicky's side of the kills.

-1 once cheater always a cheater I know this from experience

I used to cheat 👀

- I agree with you. I should have taken you into a sit first, I handled the situation overall pretty poorly, but if you can explain the four kills I will get your warn reduced to slurs.  It was chaotic the night you were banned as you said and I was trying to get all of the MRDM and prop blockers out of the server. I should have taken you into a sit and I apologize but if you can tell me more about the four kills that would be great because I can’t rule out MRDM off word alone.  If you are friends with the four players you killed can you get them to contact me to explain further?

+1

- The MRDM was around 2:23 AM - 2:26 AM.

- There were four players you killed, you were a thief so I checked chat logs and saw there was no relevant raid advert.

- I am waiting for Yami to get onto his computer in order to get the slur clip from him, but it appeared you called Yami a homophobic slur.

Allow me to get a clip from Yami I’m getting to my computer in about thirty to forty five minutes. 

- Okay, I can see that MMonke did in fact damage Mikey and Fusion prior to you killing them.  It was concerning the short time period between the kills and the fact that there were multiple MRDM and prop blockers on.  When I spectated you, you had a gun out and were staring at the exit of spawn which was very concerning to me at the time.

- Grif also seems to have damaged you.  It was a hectic time, and I definitely could have handled it better.

- MRDM is really based on scenario.  If someone were to switch to Gun Dealer, self supply a gun then go run at a group of people and start shooting, even if they only kill one person it would still be AMRDM.  Both AMRDM and MRDM warns are punished the same.  

- Since only two of your kills at that time period seem to be RDM, I will lower your ban to one minute, and you will be able to join back shortly.  My sincerest apologies for the inconvenience, I will reimburse you myself when you join back.

What am I meant to do there? My back is turned toward him and I somehow knifed him.

- The death cams are not a perfect representation of the player model, it seems you were looking at his back and downward.

This guy shot my friend/party member right before I killed him.

- Who was your party member?

- I also have a longer, six minute video, however, I trimmed the clip to flows' speaking.

- On my side, flows was previously basing with BadGraphics, Amanita Phalloides, devi, and I and while inside the base stated he was an alt account on a VPN for carter.

- I advise turning down your audio, my mic is quite loud

+/- Leaning +

- I think you are a great player and our first interactions were toxic, but that behavior seems to have died down recently.

- If I got to see more of you in game and saw that your previously toxic behavior has stopped, I will be sure to change to a +1 because you seem to understand the rules, you just did not seem to want to follow them initially.
