You're in a city filled with basketball courts
One basketball court, which is the place hobos got shot at. Why would I go check one of the most contested areas in the city, just because a pair of hobos demanded it? Textbook baiting
You could have asked any of the cops what happened to the b-ball hoop (that we had?)
You mean on the first map, which my character wasn't even around for? Because I am unaware of any "hoops" on this map
You could have put in a request for one.
Request to who?
"<:: Ayo Dispatch I need a basketball!"

Regardless of the points above, I DID consider looking for one because I PM'd @ovxy on his SA about it (I was gonna ask his Ordinal but he flagged off):
Code:
[PM] C39:RL.DEFENDER-3 -> ovxy senior admin: who shot the basketball and is there a way we can get a new one
I got no response initially and I did not press it further because I had made up my mind ICly at that point.

@'77 East the kinda guy to complain about "cop min-max brigade" and then get mad I don't come up with 4186303127098412 different methods to get a prop

I did, even asked a member of staff.

Just didn't show it here and see no reason to drag them into drama.

Why are you even bringing it up in the first place?


What hill?

Simman flat out told me that I was wrong and quoting supposed misinformation. He's just said that they surely asked for, and were denied their basketball, which was the crux of my statement.

Bro think about this: why were you making comments about the situation if you did not want to bring drama up again after skyshield already replied and it was sorted?

Which?

The only one which seemed to cause you offense was Cass's, and I was involved (just not on the scene).
I specified that in my post and it was still deleted.

You also involved yourself in Pinot's, that's 2/4 of the non archived appeals. If we take archived, you also went in Deutch's and Delaney's, that's 4/9, nearly half of the appeals, and only in one you were very superficially involved (and that's going by your word). None of the inputs had any heavy relevance or were by no means helpful just a way to push in your bit, at times in a non constructive manner.

You seriously don't see in how many deals that are none of your concern you get yourself into just to make noise man I'm not trying to shit on you I'm serious.

Recent protocol does affect me, it's one of the reasons why I haven't been flagging on my cop, I just haven't voiced my concerns because they can be taken to PM's.

Like this bit, man if it's not your problem, then don't bring it up here, and if it's already being dealt with in PMs don't bring it up in public either. What do you stand to gain from throwing insinuations around and provoking drama? I don't get it dude I seriously don't, it's like you crave the attention that comes from getting into arguments in the forums.

Because the person I asked can't read minds.

As I said before:
I've personally seen Cops turn down informants myself, so it's not like this situation was isolated.

I was talking about the situation (by itself) as part of the greater problem (would-be-informants being ditched), Rod dumped simman in:

don't act like we're all simman pls
i noticed in your vocabulary you were including the faction at a grand scale over a single decision which, as you said, many cannot influence because they don't call the shots. I'd prefer it be ''i didn't like that the RL turned all this shit down" ( a very reasonable take ).
i for one would have loved to ball with the homies.

Then simman mouths off about them wanting a basketball not being the truth (which it is?) and it snowballed from there about his situation.

Yet, how is it a single decision (in @Rod's words) if many people are doing it before?
I might not like @Simman102's justifications for the incident, but his is not the only one, it's an example of a mass problem.


why were you making comments about the situation if you did not want to bring drama up again after skyshield already replied and it was sorted?
Because I missed his post, has there been one since yours about the vortigaunt-mortar-explosion?

You seriously don't see in how many deals that are [...]
Was involved in the background of it, but since the discussion was (then) about the combat encounter no questions came up.

Delaney's
First on the scene, also had information about what the murderer had done that had not been circulated.
Appealer denied his own thread instead of answering anything I said.

One post in one thread, of which I was not involved besides sharing the area (turf).

None of the inputs had any heavy relevance or were by no means helpful
You say this because you assumed that none of my posts were relevant.
An assumption.

How can I be 'helpful' if they end on discussion of the underlying rules, rules lawyering is @Rabid's thing.
I said my involvement, my questions (of relevant activity) and that was it, unless the threads ended before that.

What do you stand to gain from throwing insinuations around
Insinuations of what, dropping potential informants like hot potatoes?
I've seen it happen with my own eyes, twice.

Both tried to hold conversations and they got warded off like garbage, as if people simply didn't want to do anything but wait for the next patrol to go shoot insurgents.

We don't have a CCC thread for this stuff anymore.

alright since you wanna get technical, here's THREE posts spanning across 5 pages so get fucked:



continuing;

I told him (or the other person? I do not know who is who?) that I do NOT have a basketball but can stop the sniper:
Code:
C39:RL.DEFENDER-3 says "<:: I *personally* am not in possession of one. ::>"
C39:RL.DEFENDER-3 says "<:: I *am* capable of stopping the sniper, however. ::>"
Which they were not interested in, so I came to the IC conclusion that the armed hobos who were shot at by an OTA sniper that came to us and offered us the whole world (and neglected to report a gun one of them carrying) for a basketball might not in fact be legitimate and called them out on the fact that their deal indeed appears "improbable", which they could have easily deflected with actually providing any piece of information, but chose to throw a "no! we want basketball!" tantrum so I kicked them out because the prospects of any serious cooperation appeared to be laughable at best
If I, on the other hand, had abused pet flags and asspulled a basketball instead and then received the intel in exchange, there would be even more forums complaints except this time it would be about how informant characters are fucking bullshit (such complaints already appear btw, just not in public yet from what I can see)
To be fair. I love you Simman. I mean that as JURY-3. But at the time we told you if you wanted information we wanted the basketball to replace the one y’all shot. We were interested in the sniper not shooting us, but it was fairly useless without the basketball. As the sniper only ever shot us at the court. Nonetheless. I think you and I may have miscommunicated the deal, and it botched itself. Cuz from our side it seemed that you had 0 interest in potentially relevant Intel. Me @‘ing you and saying that explains it was more of a meme and ‘77 East shouldn’t be flaming you. So sorry for opening a can of worms lmao.

Numbers put fourth the suggestion with an extended 24 hour period for one last-ditch rescue attempt once he's in the pod on the grounds that he had to 100% rely on outside help and would be practically on deaths bed for two shots per day. I had just assumed he told you of it, woops
It was I who initially suggested it as firebug was within our main base which is rightfully hard to attack so this was to give rebs an opportunity to attack a less-defended target to free them.

Though that required an extra 24h based on the schedule of the mortar building and firing.

It did obviously require someone from higher up okaying it but I'd be lying if I could 100% say if it was Numbers or someone else.
