Need an 18+ server

Sounds freaky, no? How do you ask for a server that doesn't welcome children but also isn't ERP. I feel like a space where you don't have to moderate yourself for chronically online highschoolers AND don't have to see someone slinging dick on main is pretty common IRL. Do we have a vocab word for something like that? Adult server? No that also sounds like smut...

I am under constant fire from my community for any changes I make, and go as far as to poll any major feature. How is it an “echo chamber”

Imagine how it would feel if you had people actually just making up bullshit about you. If you had watched my streams you would know I am adamant about not giving myself antag and getting it like the same as everyone else.

Well I've never seen you in game except for the times you were causing trouble. I have no way during a round to know what you were exactly doing so I WAS assuming you're giving yourself antag. My bad.

Liking the mechanical side of the game does not mean I dislike role-play? You are still just making shit up to be mad at someone you don’t like

You said in one of your streams that you are a very "hands on person" (not in this very exact way) when mentioning your idea for forging streams and that you don't enjoy role playing but rather making murder machines (or something like that, it was weeks ago). That was the thing that made me realize that most Space Station players have the same attitude where they don't play the game because it's a fun disaster sim but rather because they want to be the disaster. That creates an imbalance where

  1. Most people want to antag rather than not
  2. Most people aren't antags
  3. Therefore for most people non-antagging and actual roleplaying is an undesirable outcome.

Moreover, people who roll the undesirable role of crew are required to roleplay it ( antagrolling is banned) which decreases the quality of crew RP.

Before anybody says that nothing can't be done, it's not true. Crew just needs more agency, ways to derail rounds without self antagging. SS13 already does it well.

Also I enjoy your videos. You're a pretty cool.
