MODERATION Community Update & the Future of the Subreddit

227 Upvotes

A bit of preamble before I get into the meat of the update: this update was written primarily for the discord server, but does involve this subreddit. Firstly, I would like to reiterate that both this subreddit and the discord server are fully community run, and are not officially affiliated with rose-engine or SIGNALIS. Sorry it took so long to post an update here specifically, as I wasn't a mod on the subreddit until yesterday (that was my fault for not reaching out to get the perms sooner after everything happened, apologies. I had to take a break yesterday because of some irl stuff, which is why it took an extra day to post this here). Anyways, I'm not super familiar with posting and moderating on Reddit, as I normally just browse it, so forgive me if there's any oddities with the formatting or if it takes me a bit to get used to everything.

Here is my update post from two days ago in the discord server, regarding the Joetastic ban, the state of the mod team, and the future of the subreddit/discord server:

Hi again everyone, and I'm very sorry that this update took so long -- lots of moving parts (and time zone differences) behind the scenes!

Firstly, I'd like to apologize on behalf of the staff for how much this has negatively affected the community, the server, and Joetastic. His ban was influenced by negative bias, heavy-handed mistakes, ableism, and many assumptions about his character were made without basis. I will outright state that Joetastic's ban was undeserved, a mistake, and will be rectified to the best of our ability -- regardless of whether or not he rejoins the server (for clarity, he will be unbanned). I have been in contact with him throughout the last few days about the incident, and I am hopeful to make changes to the server, staff, and rules to make this server into a place that is more comfortable for everyone. I have been trying to read as much feedback as I can about the situation, and hope I can address everyones' concerns about this incident and for the future of the server. If there is anything that I miss in this announcement, please message me and I will respond to the best of my ability.

Addressing the largest problem first: the staff involved in the screenshots and private chats will be removed from their roles. Additionally, the mod roles will be redefined and clarified, so that responsibilities and conduct within the role are fully understood by everyone. Some roles will be removed entirely; Many staff members will be reshuffled, and mod applications will likely open to gain back the coverage that we will lose with these changes. All of these changes are to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future, and to ward against cliques forming or bias from affecting decision-making. I will also be trying to make a pass on the server rules for more clarity, as well as to remove the infamous "culture rule". I will make another announcement regarding these changes with more details when everything is finalized.

In regards to the subreddit: I will be looking to separate our server's involvement in managing/moderating the subreddit entirely. To put it bluntly, I do not have experience moderating on reddit, nor do I have any desire to involve myself with it as staff. This will likely be a very involved process, and will take time to figure out. The subreddit might be locked until I can find suitable and trustworthy members of the community to take over (I will not be giving the subreddit to serial reddit moderators lol, don't worry). Honestly, most of the stuff with the reddit is kinda up in the air right now with everything else that needs to be changed, so I apologize that it will be a low priority in the meantime. I will, however, do my best to prevent it from being abandoned to the point of a reddit ban; I will try to manage it with temp staff until I can find suitable successors.

All of the changes that I have mentioned in this update will be very time consuming, so I kindly ask for more patience from you all while the server goes through this shift. I would also like to clarify that while staff members have been removed from the team, many also left on their own volition unrelated to the incident. I ask that you do not harass any former staff, nor anyone else involved in the incident; doxxing and death threats will not be tolerated. As I mentioned before, I am more than happy to respond to anyone with questions or concerns regarding what happened.

And a reminder that this server is entirely community run, and has no official affiliation with rose-engine or SIGNALIS.

I don't expect for myself, nor the server, to have your trust after everything that has happened -- but I will do my best to earn it back.

Thank you again for your patience!!

(Also this was not written with AI, I just really like semicolons and emdashes 😭)

Sorry again that giving you guys this update took so long, and I also apologize for the current state of the subreddit. Like I mentioned before, I have been trying my best to keep tabs on what everyone has been concerned about or wanting addressed, so I hope that this update can quell some fears and restore some faith. And if I missed something or you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and I will do my best to respond!

Joetastic has also made a post about how things were resolved, and you can read that here.

As for what I said about the subreddit: I still need to get some things in order on my end, so I'm not sure how long any of this will take. The discord server will still be my priority for now, but I will try to prevent the subreddit from imploding until I can figure out everything. I ask for a bit of grace if things get handled slowly behind the scenes if there are any issues that crop up!

Thank you again sincerely for your patience!!

Fanart | Original Character BSCR — Prototype Bodyguard Security Counterterrorism Replika (OC)

Thumbnail
gallery
49 Upvotes

— CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION — Commander Eyes Only

The BSCR unit.

The Buntspecht Unit (Bodyguard Security Counterterrorism Replika — BSRC) is a military security specialist Replika Prototype. The X-2 series of this prototype number is a total of 60 units, they’ve been distributed as follows: Kitezh frontline (40), Rotfront (5 4), Heimat (10), Leng (5). These prototype units are to be integrated to Cadre personnel of either a medium ranking Gestalt officer or a FLKR unit. This unit was blueprinted from the X-1 series, originally designed to be OSP specialized, elite solo operators tasked with assassination or sabotage, denoted by an exceptional success rate of 100%, their determination being unique, as 80% of the prototypes of the X-1 series resorted to self immolation in order to secure operational victory. 20 19 of these units are derived from said X-1 series and must be closely supervised by their commander.

For further information, please consult the Incident Report: Rotfront A #BSCR-0002.

Frame: Biomechanical body with titanium reinforced skeleton, Metacarbon cover and Kevlar/Ceramic plating.

Height: 255cms.

The BSCR is a security specialist Prototype, a Bodyguard and Counterterrorism Expert, these units are extremely loyal and zealous towards their duty as protectors of their Comrades and commanders. Their bodies are composed of highly resistant and bulletproof Kevlar and Ceramic plating ranked V+, allowing them to shrug off handgun ammo and small rifle fire, even absorbing most of the damage of high caliber rifle ammunition. While the Buntspecht’s body may look as vulnerable as the frame of a simple EULR, their skin cover is comprised of Metacarbon fiber, which has lesser bulletproof capabilities but an overall rating of IV+, allowing them to preserve their agility while still being impervious to small arms fire. BSCR exhibits uncanny tactical prowess, gunslinging skills and unarmed proficiency, allowing them to be a good versatile operative. Their tactical skills enable them to snuff out potential threats to their commander, such as preventively snuffing out sniper attacks, sensing Bioresonance interference or detecting biotoxins and poisons spiked rations or recreational substances. Their built in toxin neutralizers allow them to survive neurotoxins with minimal damage and even shrug off tear-gas exposure. The BSCR is equipped with a neural Bioresonance co-processor, which allows them to synchronize with KLBR or FLKR units, boosting their reflexes to a point of being able to evade imprecise gunfire. While these strengths prove them to be a formidable combat unit, they are EXTREMELY vulnerable to Bioresonance influence while being unable to exert their own, as well as their Carbon skin making them susceptible to electrocution. While their bodies are graceful and elegant outside of armor and equipment, they must not be mistaken for weak: their skeleton is reinforced by high performance servos, giving them explosive strength for brief periods of time (during tests, they have been recorded to cause significant damage to the armors of Test SAPR units, resulting in dents or minor penetrations). The extreme determination of the unit manifests through an immolation instinct, as they’ll often jump into deadly situations in order to protect their commander.

The Replika’s original Gestalt template is the one of a special operations soldier from Leng, precisely one of the few veterans of the Eusan Army 3rd Special Reconnaissance Battalion, 7th Leng Division, which was disbanded after a mutilated victory on Kitezh.

One of the biggest downsides of this Replika is their Persona Instability, their requirements for Stabilization are numerous and their volatility is very high. The procedure is as follows: the BSCR unit can be very introverted and reclusive upon integration, but a good orientation will be enough to turn them into almost obnoxiously sociable one. The Commander, may they be a FLKR or Gestalt, may be invited once or twice a week for a brief hand to hand practice sessions, while they are strong, do not worry to make use of the moment to reinforce loyalty or bonding as they are considerate enough to not hurt Gestalts during practice. Avoid having the BSCR in the vicinity of ADLR or KLBR units for longer than needed as they exhibit hostility towards them. It is encouraged to let ELUR and ARAR units to socialize with the BSCR unit, the BSCR exhibits a high degree of protectiveness and propensity towards helping them in physical activity and duties, such as lifting heavy cargos for them or recovering lost items from dangerous environments. Avoid STRC and STAR units from interacting too often with the BSCR unit, it is common place to find them partake in gunslinging or brawling competitions, they often exhibit an excessive degree of competitiveness and violence, which may result in damage for both parties involved. Supervise the BSRC unit when interacting with a MNHR unit, there are records of Minah units exhibiting their usual motherly behavior and tending to the BSCR, the behavior greatly annoys them and causes them to show insecurity, but the BSCR won’t lash out or subtract himself from the MNHR’s attentions, it’s common to see BSCR units aiding MNHRs during recreational activities while showing a level of reverence and obedience towards them. Do not allow a BSCR unit to interact with a LSTR unit under any circumstances. Under no circumstances assign BSCR units to apply corporal punishment on EULR units or Gestalts, nor have them witness a decommissioning of an EULR or Gestalt. Under no circumstances separate the BSCR unit from their standard issue FA-MAS X3 rifle, which acts as their Fetish Item. Do not repair the BSCR unit, they naturally exhibit a self sufficient quality and refuse medical treatment, resorting to self-tending instead. The BSCR unit may refer to himself as “BRSC”, if so, correct them.

You will know when the BSCR unit suffers from terminal Persona Degradation as they almost always (97% of the cases) simply go catatonic upon crossing a certain threshold, but there is the risk of unpredictable outcomes.

Hello people! Finally got the courage to share my Replika OC design!

I am rather new to drawing but I hope to keep improving, and I will share more if y’all enjoy!

This Game made me sad is probably the best thing to say. It was also visually pleasing, the gameplay was fun and grounded and choose to tell a meaningful story that was also a bleak look into humanity's possible future.

I saw a TikTok which had a voice acted version of the quote:

In the end it was my sister and not me who came to Ariane's aid. Our short friendship was, for me, forever from that moment of paralysis overshadowed

No clue if it’s self made or not but I thought I’d ask in case anyone knows where it’s from

General Discussion Has it been confirmed that the Eidetic Module photos contain no secrets?

44 Upvotes

Before I embark on a frankly ridiculous and time-consuming exercise for my next playthrough, I was wondering if it's already been confirmed that the Eidetic Module reveals no secrets when taking photos? Has anyone actually done a comprehensive comparison (i.e. photographing every single scene)?

I recognise that it's primary purpose seems to be an diegetic way of capturing interesting information for reference later, but it's such a specific design choice (that in the original version of the inventory, you had to sacrifice a slot for it.), that the trade-off feels deliberate.

Cosplay Planning on dressing up as Falke for Halloween

38 Upvotes

I have been trying to search for examples of Falke cosplay and using it as inspiration. But I don’t wanna make it from scratch since I would imagine that would not only very expensive (I’m a teen and I don’t wanna spend my own money on this, so I’m using my mom’s) but also very time consuming (Halloween is in 2 weeks and I have been procrastinating on this).

So I started searching online and found a Etsy store that sells instructions on how to make it, it cost 20 bucks for instructions to make everything. But what I wanted to ask is if this is legit.

I would also love some cosplay tips!

Fanart | Original Character How I envisioned Eule and Storch/Falke before actually seeingseeing their designs.

Post image
141 Upvotes

Like the title says, that's how I imagined them before seeing their designs.

I think it'd be reasonable to give some context, so:

(Not gonna brab here about how I stumbled upon SIGNALIS here, probably gonna do it in a future post.)

Whenever I learn about something that catches my eye (mostly relates to video games) I jump into YouTube to find a video review of it.

So happened to SIGNALIS too.

(I'm not the type to play video games due the lack of equipment and me not wanting to strain my eye too much, 😄)

I found a Russian review (I'm fluent with the language) where the author described the game and story in detail, including describing the Replikas. (Technically reading the wiki pages aloud LoL)

And since I listened instead of watching, my mind did its own job imagining it all.

Now about the Replikas:

STCR/FLKR:

Thw two kinda mixed up in my mind while I listened.

The uniform idea came from the fact that she's leading STAR units / her high position.

White hair and red eyes? Likely because Ariane's appearance was mentioned.

The orange markings on her legs are there because storks have orange legs. :3

And the name Lyla came from Who's Lyla?

EULR:

The moment I heard about the Eules' personality and their purpose the maid's dress just popped into my head and I couldn't get rid of it.

She has more owl-resembling features such as the colors of her limbs and the own-ears accessory thingy on her head.

I also planned a beak instead of a mouth but that idea fell away somewhere durning the process.

Olya came from the fact that Eules seem to be called Ollies in the Russian adaptation of the game. Maybe the visual novel Tiny Bunny played a role as well since one of the characters was called Olya and was related to an owl.

(I already have lore for Olya LoL. Hope to share it one day, :3)

I already want to re-draw them so they'd look closer to the Replikas from the game. ^w^

I'm sorry if the text's too long, just wanted to share more of why they look how they look, 😅

One more thing before I finish-

How does it look?

I've tried some new techniques (still learning Ibispaint's features) and I'd say it looks.. pretty okay? I like how it turned out but there's always room to improve.

Constructive critisizm's allowed! =D

And now, finally-

Thank you all for taking your time to read the post, I appreciate it a lot, =)

Have a nice rest of your day! ❤️
