[ 2012.09.15 21:05:15 ] Samuel Ourias > Hmm.
[ 2012.09.15 21:05:36 ] Evelyn Meiyi > Sorry. I'm trying to keep business out of the Summit, but.....
[ 2012.09.15 21:07:26 ] Vaun Erryk > But you sit in front of a camera doing it, eh?
[ 2012.09.15 21:07:50 ] Evelyn Meiyi > I rarely have any free time.
[ 2012.09.15 21:10:25 ] Vaun Erryk > See, now that just makes me wonder why you bother with it at all.
[ 2012.09.15 21:11:01 ] Evelyn Meiyi > With work?
[ 2012.09.15 21:11:43 ] Vaun Erryk > Not quite - unless the Summit is your work, in which case, I apologise, and it's exactly what I mean.
[ 2012.09.15 21:12:21 ] Evelyn Meiyi > Well, I suppose I just need something that doesn't drive me crazy to look at, occasionally.
[ 2012.09.15 21:12:23 ] Evelyn Meiyi > /emote smiles.
[ 2012.09.15 21:12:58 ] Saede Riordan > You know, I connect to the summit via a simulacra, hence not having to worry about what my physical body is doing, the channel is rendered in my optic implants.
[ 2012.09.15 21:13:00 ] Vaun Erryk > I'd gently suggest you may be in the wrong line of work.
[ 2012.09.15 21:14:37 ] Synthetic Cultist > Hello.
[ 2012.09.15 21:14:55 ] Evelyn Meiyi > Hello, Synthia.
[ 2012.09.15 21:14:57 ] Shiroh Yatamii > Hmm....simulacra.
[ 2012.09.15 21:15:41 ] Synthetic Cultist > How are you, Vaun Erryk ?
[ 2012.09.15 21:16:09 ] Shiroh Yatamii > /emote renders himself first as taller, then shorter. Pretty soon he presents himself as a Fedo donning glasses.
[ 2012.09.15 21:16:24 ] Shiroh Yatamii > Grrrgggleegrrrgglle.....I'd tell you what I eat, but you've probably never heard of it....grrrglglle...
[ 2012.09.15 21:16:38 ] Evelyn Meiyi > 'Anything'?
[ 2012.09.15 21:17:20 ] Saede Riordan > /emote blinks.
[ 2012.09.15 21:17:33 ] Synthetic Cultist > the summit is a text channel, and does not show any simulacra.

Desiderya:
I always understood that the summit isn't a virtual place, so it would be renderings of avatars - who could very well display anything you like. Although while that being possible, it is also very possible to enforce *reality filters* that forbid artificial modifications and override them into the "CONCORD File" appearance if it's not a live feed.
But yeah, that's up to the Summit team.
I also question the need to strike the fourth wall on purpose, but vOv.
Streya:
Right, if any filters were put in place by the moderators then of course my character would be forced to remain in a certain guise, and I as a player would respect that. But until then I see no reason why people have to call it out simply because it's a little silly. There has been worse, after all. As for deliberately poking at the fourth wall, read my character concept thread :P
Graelyn:
--- Quote from: The Summit ---It is not a physical place, but rather a virtual environment that can be distributed and accessed in several forms and versions. 'The Summit' can be linked into from the capsule, from any cam/vid interface out of a pod, or even in pure audio format while you wander around a station/planetside on business. Pilots without a visual feed can be represented by static images to those who are visually interfacing, and live feeds can be established from anyone just perusing the node from their desk somewhere.

A text version is an easy extension.
Saede Riordan:
That doesn't answer the question Lou originally posed though, Simulacra modification, allowed, or are some sort of filters in place that force your appearance to be human?
