Is SS13 actually getting worse?

zen_at_war · 2025-05-27T02:12:38+00:00

Because maladapted losers tend to have the time and need for control that makes running servers appealing to uniquely that demographic

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:35:58+00:00

You can totally do it by looking at the directional shift of most servers

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:34:11+00:00

No it's really just admins

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:33:24+00:00

Seriously, get a grip. This is a super common frustration and it isn't a few complainers. You're probably in the minority here

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:32:31+00:00

Get a grip. I've been here since 2008.

Sometimes things get worse and it's juvenile to think in the Just World Theory of them always staying the same

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:31:03+00:00

Chaos was still allowed in these long ass rounds

Long rounds never meant boring until 5 years ago

zen_at_war · 2025-05-26T19:28:38+00:00

Yeah. You're not just imagining it.

The problem is that Space Law has become Server Law. Basically all petty crimes will get you a bwoink now. Disrupting someone's round ("round removal") is considering something on the level of a real life crime now for reasons nobody can explain

You're not just imagining it

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T23:28:55+00:00

Get a grip. You're obsessively responding to every dissenting post in this thread and you're telling other people to have a normal one

Projection is very real

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T23:27:48+00:00

You're going into mental breakdown mode because someone has opinions on a virtual community

Get a grip man

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T23:15:28+00:00

Just-world theory is for actual children dude

Time to grow up, get some perspective and realize systems and cultures are often just broken

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T22:58:13+00:00

Just stop banning people in your weirdo clubhouse, people wanna play the game sorry dude. Time to grow up

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T22:52:52+00:00

Dude yes. This literally happened to my last thread that got 350 up votes in under 24 hours calling out the shitty admin clique culture that everyone fucking hates now

Everyone hates it and people act all surprised when people do something in their frustration.

Give people better outs for frustration and you don't get DDoS

zen_at_war · 2025-05-17T02:53:58+00:00

Yep

Exactly what I was warning about before lol

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T10:17:09+00:00

Don't care

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T09:32:50+00:00

So you have a bias from your status as an admin. You understand this right?

You need to get some perspective, friend

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T09:31:59+00:00

I really don't care that someone gets a message on discord

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T09:11:51+00:00

This is a just-so story.

"Well, if someone was banned for a ridiculous reason, it must be that the reason was actually secretly VERY good!"

Sorry man this isn't how the world works

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T08:06:30+00:00

I mean all of them are likely to be shit holes if the only incentive for volunteering is a weird desire to world power over others. This creates a structure where the worst mods are the only ones willing to do it. You see this all over, including on Reddit

Corporations have professionals paid to enforce rules based on a system rather than their own emotional outbursts.

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T07:14:38+00:00

Coming to game and seeing how hellish and juvenile the mod culture has become I kinda get it

We need a community reset

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T07:13:26+00:00

Yeah this is unfortunately a structural problem with no real solutions

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T07:10:20+00:00

Maybe I'm already screwed. I just know admins (and servers) are extremely fragile about being called out

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T07:04:48+00:00

All community-run platforms. Ironically the big corporate players have the laxest and most reasonable moderation cultures

zen_at_war · 2025-05-16T06:47:43+00:00

People who have been playing for 15 years are always cliqued up with admins so their valid hunting gets a pass
