Honestly speaking, if anything pops up again I just might try it again, but I don't want to fall into staffing, I do care for how things go and will give necessary feedback and stuff but I feel I have contributed enough and want to enjoy the gamemode itself.

Instead of PK Manager (supreme court), would you consider a role on the judiciary of small claims court (magistrates)?

honestly i doubt the new one will need a PK appeal system, if we're pushing for a more "deaths generally only happen when narratively fulfilling" kind of deal

some of the worst parts of HL2RP historically have been the encouragement of rebel and faction infighting by letting you kill someone for minor things like veiled threats and scams

generally, death should be the actual, literal last resort

In a round about way, the lesser population of modern day gmod roleplay will probably aid into that. We used to accept people dropping dead out of nowhere especially when there was a large number of people on a server at one time - I think with a more story focused narrative we can certainly focus on giving characters some proper meaning as opposed to being another slot on a scoreboard.

if you remember incidents from Relentless

based deaths: that time the entire civpro team betrayed the sector commander by having them all radio in that rebels were attacking to bait him into leading a patrol in the sewers so they could ambush him with an entire squad; which let them instate their own new commander that was beholden to them

based, kino, actually made me feel cool even when dying because it took the entire civpro team coordinating specifically to put me out

cringe deaths: acid-laced breen water to kill a civil worker

lmao

I personally see the Victorian approach to murder (in a fictional environment) as pretty based (again in a fictional environment)

Are striders integrating well into post occupation society?

The Strider Riders of the eastern outlands occasionally come to trade; they've managed wrangle the wild remnant striders by climbing their pole-legs and sticking large spikes into their craniums to serve as joysticks

it's always an interesting sight to see a procession of oddly-walking striders with underslung goods carried beneath them, but it makes sense to have mobile high ground when the east is home to one of the largest antlion hives for a hundred miles

Can create scary stories of striders having malfunctions early on and entire "houses" falling into the (ant)lions pit

it was a rough year or so

but now they form a good amount of the long-distance caravanning away from populus, and antlions are easy to shoot when you're suspended in a net 15 feet in the air

we stan our Strider Riders

Outland Transhumans use them for transports. Synths basically became wild animals without coordinating orders and let free to roam. The Populus does have re-purposed synths. Search n Rescue Hunters, Fabricator Scarabs, construction striders (not used in the city).

But yes the kenshi transhumans have their synths.

Image I tossed together for a temp icon for the transhuman selection on the character creator

countries need to stop blocking so many of my image hosting sites im tired of switching so that more people on here can see
me i've always wanted to segregate the br*tish from my memes, my content, and engagement - to keep them apart from any enjoyment i might accidentally impart. i thank the uk government, their bills, and the work of parliament for creating the online safety act. i for one have never felt more safe.
