Operatives,
While threats to the Matrix exist, we must remain steadfast in abiding by System protocols, and we must respond vigorously when these protocols are broken. We thank you for your assistance in safeguarding the simulation.

Those poor bluepills...
I'm glad we managed to get the data leak sewn up.
I think I'll even drop by one of The Chefs restraunts one day! Great chap.
Well done, Machinists.
(( And now:
*cough* Yeah, sure Pace, just like you did for those who worked their butts off trying to organize for the Mero party on Syntax a while back *cough* Heh ))
((Edit: Null. I appologise. No offence ment out of character.))

Agreed, I laughed though, i'm not gonna lie.
(( It was a cool event, simple and funny. Sometimes it seems that we have to do every event bigger than the previous, but events like this are also fun and give the sensation of more everyday duty, which is realistic

Also, thank you Rarebit for the big first plane! I have a new wallpaper for my desktop

Most likely.
((Although, it would be interesting if Ghost went Mech.))
Besides that unfortunate misunderstanding of System priorities (to put it mildly), well done to the Vectorian Machinists.
That would make a nice headline for the Sentinel... Government-operative murders civilians randomly...
((What did the six of you get anyway? Translocation Programs?))
So im assuming pace was reprogrammed when she was attacked by the mervs, because i remember her having a very human attachment towards ghost. Now she is all Super -*CENSORED* toaster like not even human, im sure that what the machines operatives wanted, i sure would have hoped she would have gone zion, but i guess not...
This just might reinforce my prediction that Pace is the next Smith to the next One. Also, to quote Henry Swinton in "A.I.: Artificial Intelligence" (okay, yeah, weak movie, but the concepts were thought-provoking), "If he knows how to love, it's reasonable to assume he knows how to hate." This seems to be part of her further development into more human-like behavior, only she's developing for the worst.

Just to clear a few things up, Blueplate did not kill for money, she said she was broke but infact meant broke as in broken, i did say also that Blueplate would be fixed, and also but not on the screenshots, i said to pace that she was broken and not doing it for money. As we know machines have in the past had their code corrupted (pace) thus needing repair. Blueplate has now been repaired and is operating correctly now, the bluepill incident was indeed very misfortunate but not intended.
Hope this clears things up a little.
((ooc... its a shame that pace didnt get with our own little storyline, also the last picture was after the event when we had dropped out of character and was not too happy with what happened...))

No flaming intended. I was just voicing a thought that's been sitting in the back of my head for a while.

Haha....sorry that doesn't cut it. Parse it all you want, Blueplate killed a bunch of bluepills during a live event, no matter what crazy backstory you claim is behind it. No reward for you. Too bad, so sad.
the right story is he killed one bluepil during the event and the rest at the end when event was over, we at Ronin dont really worry to much if it does not cut it with anyone, we just like facts to be stated is all...
Ian
You claim he only killed one during the event and the others after...


I severely hope that the faction leader chastises him and those who allowed him into that situation appropriately. A Machinist should not be killing bluepills at all inside or outside a live operation. 'Ronin' may not care about such things, but a large number of other factions do.
okies, why would i want to chastise Blueplate, did you not read what i said, he was broken, i said this at the event and in my post here, i also said he would be repaired and i also said Ronin do not worry if it does not cut with others, there was no mention of us not caring about things. Please get the facts straight before you have a go at me. Was you at the event, i didn't see you soz?
Ian
Okay, you do that. And while you're at it... stick to Syntax.
And why would I want to do that? Do Zionites care about instance boundaries when they observe the actions of Machinists, for use in their arguments against us? I'm concerned with what happens on all instances; I see no reason why I should turn a blind eye to what happens on Recursion or Vector if others don't.
Operatives, this incident concerning the Operative Blueplate and the Bluepills at the restaraunt has been fully investigated and indeed the Operative was malfunctioning. This has been corrected by the Faction Ronin and no further action will be taken.
OfficerDibble
it was unknown until it was brought to our attention, also on another note, Pace was put into the field when she was not fully repaired i believe. None the less it was still unknown until the mission was complete.
let me post the section of log thats missing something
Agent Pace: The System records that you were also responsible for the termination of a number of bluepills at the Chef's facility.
Brommerz77: Brommerz77 ROFL.
Agent Pace: I must make it clear that unnecessary termination of bluepills is not acceptable behavior for a System operative.
Agent Pace: I hope this is understood.
Yasamuu: Agreed.
Xitem: It's all about deletion isn't it? Not the work leading to it...
Gravedodger: Gravedodger poor blue.
BluePlate: Im broke i kill them all
DrBadTouch: Any other spots to check out pace.
ianfish: blueplate will be repaired
Agent Pace: Operative, if you require information, there are always System missions available to you.
BluePlate: YES MASTER
ianfish: broke as in corrupted i beleive
Agent Pace: Thank you for your assistance today, operatives.
Ian
okies, why would i want to chastise Blueplate, did you not read what i said, he was broken, i said this at the event and in my post here, i also said he would be repaired and i also said Ronin do not worry if it does not cut with others, there was no mention of us not caring about things.

Ian
You obviously didn't read my post thoroughly. I said I hope that the faction leader Chastises Blueplate and those who allowed him to be in that situation. Obviously if he was 'broken' then he was not responsible for his actions, in which case his superiors are responsible.
So you say that Ronin do not worry if your explanation does not cut it with others...
Does that not mean that you don't care what others think?
Also, me not being part of the operation is beyond the point.
Oh and Brommerz77, just by saying 'stop the drama' does not mean that this will go away. As Starschwar says, you are seen as examples of Machinists on any instance not just Vector, this effects us all. Plus if our disgust at what happened and voicing our opinion goes toward preventing a similar problem occurring, then it will have achieved something.
Agent Pace may not have been fully repaired when she re-entered the service but she did not go on a rampage killing bluepills. Blueplate should have been constantly monitored as I'm sure Pace was.
ok for the last time, we found that Blueplate was malfunctioning at the same time as everyone else in that room did at the END of the event. I do care what people think, hence the replies, i don't care if this explanation does not sit well, i have explained the actions. How can you agree pace was not fully fit for duty and then try to blame us for putting an unfit operative in the field, should you now have a go at Agent Gray for putting back in the field. And just to reafirm things, we found blueplate had malfunctioned at the END of the event.

I agreed nothing. I said she may not have been fully repaired but she was most likely being monitored. If you did not know that Blueplate was 'broken' then they are two different situations ie. Gray knew something was wrong, you didn't, so that argument is nullified.
If I may ask.. how did Blueplate get 'broken'?
There was never an argument to be had tbh, information on Ronin events do not belong here and you would have to be in Ronin to find out, sorry.

Well, Machinists on Vector not in Ronin and those on the other instances can only comment on what we have seen. A persons behaviour does not simply corrupt, something has to instigate it.
Seeing as you are keeping the details to yourselves I can only voice what many others may be thinking. He was either attacked or interfered with.
You may have had knowledge of this event, in which case it was your duty to either keep him out of a situation where innocent blupills could get hurt or monitor the subject closely in case of abnormal behaviour just like we have seen.
If you were unaware of an attack or interference on the subject, then as soon as there was evidence of a problem you should have removed him from the situation in an effort to reduce the number of innocent casualties. Your lack of awareness to his first action of killing an innocent bluepill no doubt caused the rest of their deaths.
Awh -
I never thought I would say this, but;
I miss the old Pace.![]()
Now she just acts like any other normal old cold agent. I sort of miss her cute liaison programmed antics.
Now she's kinda ... boring.![]()
Her previous programming made her such a unique character. Now she's plain, boring, and she seems to think she is Gray. ![]()
ok here is an out of character statement as you do not seem to be grasping what happened...
yes ppl can comment and i have told you/them what happened and what was said at the event, my faction does more that the dev supplied events, we do our own and as you are not in Ronin you will not know of them or possibly understand them, but they are inline with the storyline. it just so happens that our own event episode and a server event have crossed lines here and to a degree this is possible, how else would events drive the story. some of our events are cross org which benefits more than just Ronin, so we dont just do things for ourselves. again if its not clear to anyone, Blueplate's malfunction came to our knowledge after the end of the machine event, we may or may not have known about the problem but for the story we did not thus we could not tell anyone. i just dont understand why you cant accept that we did not know until everyone in that room knew, it would be like on day one of the matrix me saying morpheus will die on such a date(if i knew the date), would rather spoil the fun for those who took part in all that led upto that. I will not comment any further here as i am feeling this is getting silly now, i have answered everyones comcerns i hope.
Ian

Here's an event. In Character, why would you not be persuaded to put someone down like BluePlate that just slaughters bluepills?
Or if you want to be true to the story, why don't you just go another org that are glad to kill bluepills.
lol

((I fully accept that you may be involved in your own storyline, but as others such as myself are unaware of it and are commenting on events that happened in this LE. We RP on our own servers and on these threads, You cannot expect us just to ignore what has happened by saying, it's part of our RP so it's ok.
We only comment as to what we know, and if you cannot supply, IC, a reasonable explanation, other than 'he was broke, but he's better now' The you should expect some fully justified comments by other Machinists. Obviously you say that you have your explanation and don't worry if it doesn't cut it with others... fine but that does not mean we have to stop our own comments.
If you're RP effects other peoples RP then you really have to be prepared to include them, not totally but to a certain point. If they don't accept it, continuing an argument does little but inflame the situation.))

No apology, no remorse, no excuse.
Let me assure all Vectorians that Ronin did not act on behalf of the machine organisation at large. The brutal slaughter of innocent bluepills has never been, and will never be sanctioned.
May our children forgive us.

I am sure that not only Vectorians but Machinists from the other instances will be pleased to hear that. I know I am.
(Edited to correspond to exsuscito's edit)
((There seems to be a major communication problem here, so let me clear a few things up on an OOC basis:
1. I'm fully aware that the actions of Blueplate were stemming from your own RP Events.
2. I'm also aware, both in/out of character that Blueplate's status was unknown untill after the bluepills were dead.
3. That said, let me clear up the In Character side of things: Blueplate killed the bluepills, and I'm holding his/her leadership accountable. Starschwar will not accept "we didn't know that Blueplate was broken, but now is fixed" as the end of this incident.
4. To summarize: Everything's cool on an out of character basis. On the RP side of things, this won't be going away.
))
I, as well as my regiment, do not condone killing of non-hostiles in a hostile situation.
However, whatever happened has happened - crying over spilled milk won't fix what's been done.
Remember, our superiors have ordered the killing of bluepills before to make sure they're not awakened to Zion's treachery. It's a sad, but true fact on how we operate.
It's not a matter of how people view our organization, it's like a liberal controlled media - showing what they WANT you to see. What they don't see on the inside of us, outside the lies and cover up, is our exceptional ability to carry out operations and missions with precision and grace.
Blueplate's actions occurred, it's over and done with. Perhaps once he is repaired, he'll be able to resume regular operational duty. A small error in a program (I'm guessing he's a program) make up and/or targeting parameters and all hell breaks loose. We need to move on with our real missions - it's small arguments like this that tear us apart - to win this war, we need to stand together, shoulder to shoulder with our superiors and ensure our race's survival through this turbulent time.
On that comment, to any Zionists that wish to argue the 'race survival' point, I mean those that stand behind the Machines - not people who don't hold their words to a Truce that was needed to ensure our survival in the first place.
Once again, my regiment does not condone killing of innocents or 'blues' in red territory. Non-combatants should never be engaged unless they a clear threat, thus making them combatants. It's the game of war.
But what's done is done. Learn from this operation and look forward to our next one.
