Add a D-boy quota, please hear me out, I believe this would make the game feel more alive. - Denied

[Dr Patriot]

 

What you want to see? -  I wanna see a more livley and active server where each and every role is seen as vital to the server.

Why should we add it? - It would make the research role more active and give them more work to do in regard to making the foundation safe from SCP breaches and give SCP’s more opportunities to breach their containment as well as D-class being able to be involved in more experiments/tests

What are the advantages of having this? -It would researchers and experiments more purpose/importantce in what happens in the server, also event mods will no longer be required to start the breach’s and they wouldn’t be constantly be annoyed by 24/7 call’s for a breach event

Who is it mainly for? -Reserchers, SCP’s and D-class

Links to any content - None, sorry.

Basically every scp will be given one or more D-boys (Depending on the SCP) every 20 minutes, and if this quota is not filled the SCP  will enter an angered state and will be able to self breach, this will give researchers a sense of urgency as well as more work to do when it comes to making experiments and would also give D-boys a more important role since they are a required element in subdueing the scp’s, this would make D-boy riots create a chain reaction that leads to mass breaches and thus making riot control a very important measure.

 

As you could see this feature will lead to this server being more alive and will tie all the roles together and make them more important as well as more dependent on each other.

Sorry for any mistakes.

-support, 

this wouldn’t make sense for all SCP’s. For example: 106 cannot be tested on so he cannot receive d-bois, 049 is non violent only 049-2 are violent. I don’t see any lore advantage or any RP advantage. I would like to see all departments being active, but I don’t believe motd rules like this will help.

I see, thank you for the insight.

I don’t want you to feel at all deflated by my comment sir. I feel that there are methods to help certain departments, but I think this rule (if implemented) can A) only apply to certain SCP’s and B) require a minimum number of researchers online otherwise it would be chaos.

On top of that i would think the D-Class would refuse to be used for research just to cause chaos so they could escape easier with riots.

Believe it or not I was thinking about this a few hours ago and how fun it would be to have again.

This used to be how things were and I loved it. Some scps however wouldn't make sense for this, like 106 and maybe 096 and 1245. However most scp's should work, by either being fed or used in what that scp does. Overall I'd love to see this type of RP implemented back into the server.

1. The self breaching idea is completly stupid, as not always there is a researcher on and they have better things to do than brining 10 d-class to HCZ and giving them to every sigle SCP. Research is not made to make experiments like "just throw in a d-class and leave him to be", researches tests are supposed to have a meaning and learn new things about the SCPs.

2. If you want research to become more active and actually do tests, stop rioting all the time and maybe they'll have a chance.

I would absolutely support increasing the activity of the Research department, but one of their main barriers is the constant rioting of D-Class, which gets the DEFCON level raised, causing them to have to stay in their spawns.

If I may suggest a slight tweak to this suggestion, maybe make a quota for research personnel, similar to the quota for Event Staff. These required tests would hopefully increase the amount of testing done on SCPs, and utilize the D-Class a lot more often, hopefully dropping down riots a little bit since they'll have more to do.

The last thing Research needs right now is the burden of stress to get tests in.

D Boys Would take advantage of this and purposely ruin researcher's tests/be very uncooperative because they know that if there is no tests they'll be punished.

Class-D ("Disposable Class") personnel are expendable individuals used for testing SCPs, notably Keter-class objects. They are unwillingly recruited by the SCP Foundation worldwide and are usually death row inmates. In times of duress, the Foundation will recruit individuals from civilian sources or inmates incarcerated of lesser crimes. Civilians can also 'sign up' to be part of the Class-D program at the Foundation.

Class-D personnel are primarily used as test subjects for studying and investigating SCPs. This usually involves risking the life of the Class-D for the sake of ensuring research.

 

The "entire point" of Class-D is to be used for tests.  Never do you see riots or hear of riots in games or the lore.  We are semi-serious, yes, however, it is your mindset that everyone in Class-D has.  Your entire existence as a Class-D is to be used for testing.  If we had our server set up like an actual site, you couldn't even get out of your cell without an escort.  Be grateful for the privileges you have and understand that those privileges ruined other departments.

Denied. The SCP-RP SMT has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason.
