What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion aims to change the access to the inner D-Block to Clearance Level 2, but give override access to GSD Cadets - Only asking to change the keypads in the pictures below

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not sure

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
SCP-999 and SCP-2295 will no longer be able to open the inner D-Block to release prisoners or to enter D-Block

Jobs like Chef, Janitor, Junior Researcher, and others that don't NEED access to the inner D-Block but tend to mess around with it. So we will revoke their access.

For D-Class, they will still need a Clearance Level 2 keycard to open the airlock, but can use a Clearance Level 1 keycard on the other doors. So it shouldn't affect their gameplay loop and ability to escape.

All combative personnel, except those in GSD, are Clearance Level 3, so it shouldn't affect other combative departments.

From an in-character perspective, it would make sense, since the security of D-Class is vital for keeping the whole site secure, and this has been seen as one of the flaws IRP


Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Somebody has to hop on the server and change the keypads?
Will stop slight minge RP?
(Edit: Will slightly hinder D-Class ability to release OTHER D-Class. And will slightly affect CI)

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I believe it would be a great change overall, as it would stop people from messing around with the doors and releasing D-Class for no reason. It is something I have asked in the GSD Sergeant chat (UK) and have gotten positive reactions from Captains and the Chief of Security.

I will also mention that this change doesn't have to apply to both servers. It is something we are requesting on the UK side of things, only if not wanted by US
(If there are any issues or anything I missed with the suggestion, I might edit it depending on feedback given in comments)

Currently it's way too easy for some dipthong chef or Jr researcher to just open the airlocks and let the horde free. And don't even say "OHHH WELL THEN GENSEC ISNT DOING THEIR JOB".
If you think that you clearly don't play Gensec.
 
+support

holy fucking goated idea, the amount of times we have to waste time killing a researcher over and over because they open the door, let D-class out, we shoot them/they kill themselves, respawn, and do it again is insane. not a single hour goes by without some techie getting arrested/shot because they let 5 D-class out and ran into D-block. same thing goes with SCPs. and its not a simple "make an admin sit" because you get rid of one person and it happens again 2 minutes later, it's one of the biggest issues GSD has.

other than from a minge perspective, i genuinely dont know why there is any reason for this to not be accepted. no CL1 other than GSD cadets are allowed to open those doors regardless without getting arrested, so this suggestion does nothing except make GSD/ISD's job easier, as well as bring down the amount of FailRP sits and let GSD focus on helping research instead of KOSing all engineers that go near the airlock doors. (this would also stop trainees from running into D-block and giving D-class guns, since they can no further open the door).

(to be honest though i would go as far as to say making the doors CL3 with GSD override would be even better, as no CL2 combatives that aren't GSD exist regardless)

also this wouldn't hurt D-class gameplay, as most D-class, after leaving D-block, tend to run away and escape instead of opening airlock doors cuz most of them are selfish mfs and dont care about the other D-class. the weight that this suggestion has towards GSD is much greater than the very few negatives it could have on D-class.

+Massive Support As both a Gensec Main and A dclass main ill paint 2 pictures
Gensec We just got done job banning Cadet Minge #714 and they decide you know what im going to instantly swap to janitor and just spam open dclass doors 17 dclass run out because They''re D-Class then we get told to do our job better as the janitor then runs in again and lets out another 5 Class D
Class D I knowingly just sit in medical line because i know at some point some Techie Janitor or chef is going to let me out and i either run for the hills or shoot 3 gensec and die for my sins or some janitor walks into dblock to clean it for the 17th time and i just punch him to death for a free level 1

is entirely true and if it wasn't most Class-d would have a cl2 to just let out more anyways

Can’t GSD leadership just request this off any senior admin anyways?

Originally, I wanted to bring it up IC as a suggestion to the Chief, but he said it would be better on the forums, pretty much.

As much as I would have loved to suggest this, I feel like it would have been way too much and would have heavily affected D-Class unless their vendor was scaled up to include CL3 keycards with adjusted prices to match.

Makes it harder for d class to help others out

D-class need a CL2 to open any doors to escape anyway, this point is mute.

Evan said:
Also nerfs CI and D-Class because hacking the airlock from the outside will be a clearance higher.

It's a CL2 hack.. CL3 to fault.
D-class do the same CL3 INSIDE D-block all ready, I'm sure an Insurgency raid can can hold for the 10 extra seconds that it takes to hack it.
If they can't... Well bluntly thats a skill issue.

If people are abusing it report it to ISD/Staff depending on what they do.

We do. But it's such a common thing, especially for people who hop on a CL1 to fuck about. This is a simple and easy change that prevents that. Makes perfect sense from an IC and OOC perspective.

icl making the queues CL3 would be a good shout. Most abused imo. Airlock is a lot louder and easy to see who's fucking with it.

I remember RSD leadership just asking for 914 to be changed and it was done in an hour😭
Click to expand...
When changes are "New" and such they require content, the 914 one was due to 914 being made SCP of the month which content agreed on. Course if they wanted to veto an SCP they could.
