Take responsibility , appologise, and take steps to ensure the stability of those under your command so that this never happens again.

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.
Heh, that's pretty amusing. Ever heard of the saying "Follow one’s chosen leader faithfully but not blindly?"
Though then again, I guess you might be the kind of guy who likes just killing people.
Good thing you work for the machines then! Looks like they'll just let you off with a slap on the wrist! "Naughty Naughty, don't do it again!"
Funny how in the Matrix, the Machines are the law and order watching over the everyday bluepills. If a bluepill goes on a killing spree, he'd (presumably) be arrested and either incarcerated or executed. Guess you're lucky then if you have sociopathic tendencies and get awakened. Then just sign up with the machines and Wahay! Murder to your hearts content. Don't worry, Pace will give you a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card.

((If you do wish to reiterate some past disdain towards me, please do so in the comfort of PM's, or in-game. It has no place on a public forum, and is totally irrelevant to the subject matter within the thread.))
"The faction member was broken. We were unaware of this at the time. They have since been fixed."
Based on the evidence at hand, I just don't buy that. It smacks of desperately covering up the faction member's indiscretion in order to preserve the public perception of the faction.
I notice that you have not yet apologised, nor shown any remorse towards the lives you so mercilessly snatched away from those innocents. They weren't regrettable collateral damage, they weren't killed in-the-line as soldiers. They were savaged, and murdered for fun. I see ill-conceived actions based on unfiltered impulse, and nothing more.
Even if what you say is true (and especially if it's not), the faction member in question should be heavily reprimanded, subject to further investigation.
Whether exiled, organic or synthetic, this was a sad day for us all. As your faction will not, I personally apologise for the unfortunate incident on behalf of the machine organisation on all instances.
We can only hope that our future actions go some way towards correcting this error of judgement, and ensure that their lives were not lost in vain.
Chef: Hey! Staff-only behind the counter, young man.
Heh.
General point: Don't mess with a LE. Aside from the obvious things, like swearing, spamming, or generrally behaving like a spastic 12-year old WoW reject. One would think that coming up on 3 years the MxO population would have weeded out that sort of thing by now. But more direct abuse of the LE's, well...
Example One: A character on Recursion during a Merv LE kept sneaking in the room we were in and shutting off the lights. Now, this person was interfering with Rare's ability to screenshot this LE which we have for the whole MxO population.
Example Two: Blueplate's killing spree. I don't care what cockamamie backstory you all have conjured up after the fact. Even if it were so, a faction's personal RP ends the moment a LE starts. It's not like Rare has time to factor in every faction's RPing on a whole server beforehand. Again, these LE's are for the whole MxO's population's benefit. Not just your own factions.
You get the idea.
(( I won't go that far. There's room for other people's RP, as long as it doesn't actually disrupt the event. My character's behaviour when encountering LE characters is built upon his past and that of his faction. I'm not gonna throw that out the window 'cos it's a Dev on the other side....a faction's personal RP ends the moment a LE starts. It's not like Rare has time to factor in every faction's RPing on a whole server beforehand.
