Catsro Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Please make sure suggestions are pertinent and relevant! What do you want to see? - Have the MOTD updated to include thermals rules. Also, having to include the reason for adverting thermals in the advert. Why should we add it? - To help others including staff know why thermals were called by giving a reason for it. it also helps players understand how and when to use thermals. After that reason is gone the thermals must be turned off. What are the advantages of having this? - No more confusion when people advert thermals if they give a reason for doing so. After there threat is dealt with they can turn off thermals so that they do not have them on 24/7. Who is it mainly for? - Everyone Links to any content - N/A 3 SCPRP Head Admin | Ex SCPRP Event Team Leader | Ex CI LTCMDR | O5-13 Catsro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naqua Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 +support It will be helpful to add a actual reason for calling thermals since when people are trying to check 966's cc and call thermals people call thermals right after them when it is unnecessary.

It is already a rule in the MOTD that there must be a valid RP reason for thermals to be called.

So making it required to state the reason for thermals in the advert will make the wave of thermal adverts happen less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking SCP 966's chamber and them not being there is a valid RP reason though. Additionally, it makes RP sense that if one group of MTF discovers something that would make thermals a valid option, all other MTF personnel would then also use them. They have radios and such.

Catsro Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) My idea here is to make it clearer for reasons for thermals. Not just someone saying Thermals in advert and then being able to have them for like 10 mins. There is not a bias here as it effects everyone. It would benefit staff as we can see the reasoning for thermals so in case a sit was called we could better give a decision about the outcome. I wouldn't mind if we also make thermals a timed thing as you can't have them on for long periods of time or you will become blind.

Detective Pug Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 +support It can also be used to find 966 instances easier because of their new cloak rework. I'd still say people have to advert thermal THEN they use the thermal, otherwise that'd be FailRPing. Great idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icarus Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I think that mainly it should be a rule that if one person adverts “Thermals” we shouldn’t get a flood of MTF and RCF doing the same. If one person adverts thermals and says nothing in comms, then no one else has a valid reason to activate thermals. The advert for thermals is OOC and let’s staff know people activated thermals, and so they can use that for reference if it’s brought up in a sit. To avoid troubles for staff and to balance it out, players should not be allowed to advert thermals just because they see a thermals advert in chat. If someone comms in something such as “966 breach” or “CI infil in the foundation” then yes, that can all advert it. However if I’m on patrol and checking 966s CC and need to put on my thermals to do so, there should not be a chat spam of thermals adverts following along.

Hoovy Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 +Support I fully support there needing to be a reason included in the advert.

Seeker (Tavdogg1) Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 +Support Reason: Everyone else explains this better than I could ever do. Conclusion: More clarifications and add-on of unwritten rules is a must, as many people won't know them until they actually see it in action, and can be confused if they see it, causing issues. There are three types of people... There are hunters... There are prey... And then I, Alex B, comes back after so long to Security with the new name of Seeker that nobody remembers me anymore, but I don't care and I just want to shoot D-Class.

Spoopy Max Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 +Support This would most certainly help have less confusion on the server because people new would wonder why. So eliminating this confusion would help less open comms kinda confusion thinking they can advert freely. Thank you for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
