Did you know

Apparently, electrons themselves have never actually been observed?

I once really needed a pen at school.

Yeah, been there, man.

Your statement (easier to integrate cybernetics, I.E. grafting into preexisting wetware) presumes that Androids are initially human. They are not.

I know the difference between an android and a cyborg. I wasn't confusing the two, simply stating that, hypothetically, one would be simpler to make than the other.

And while cybernetic augmentation is not quite as rare as Androids outside of the Commonwealth, it is notably much less advanced than displayed in your character, and even pre-war standards are not quite up to the task of reproducing your setup. While they had gotten quite good at neural integration - as demonstrated with robobrains and available implants - actually full-blown cybernetics such as integrated plasma weapons were beyond their capabilities. They could manage the lower and higher extremes of the modification spectrum - they could give you minor implants, or they could pull your brain out and stick it in a jar. The more advanced the technology used, the higher the chance you'll wind up disembodied.Your ghoul is something I might expect to see at Big Mountain, full stop. I don't see any Wasteland Surgeons, the Enclave, The Followers or the Apocalypse, or Vault-Tec experiments producing one. In fact, other than Big Mountain, the only actual faction I see that could have been involved in the creation of such a product would be The Institute.

If we are being honest, the equipment - armor, weapons, accessories, the combinition ghoul/cyborg kit - is something I would expect to find in a Min/Max arena character profile. Not in the advanced section. I'm not the GM, so of course my opinion only carries so much weight: But I would not get your hopes up about being accepted unless you somehow manage to pull together a fabulously cohesive and well-thought backstory, and even then it would be iffy. Other characters here had to make notable concessions for lesser problems than the pile of them your character has.

Okay, I can understand your skepticism. That said, you're forgetting about things like Cyberdogs, or Attis, or frankly, quite a few other examples of successful cybernetics in the fallout universe.

That character does seem a little OP though

Aside from being a Ghoul, he's essentially just a guy with a plasma pistol and a zap glove. He doesn't even have a heavier-tier weapon.

Regardless, I don't want to join with a character that everyone will hate off-the-bat anyway, so I'll go ahead and change him up.

I seem to be doubting whether or not that app might actually work out in the Fallout world.I know there's crazy shit and all, but I don't think they've gone that far into Iron Man and Deus Ex.

It's completely plausible in the Falloutverse. As stated above, fully-functioning androids have been made. I assume it'd be even easier to integrate cybernetics into a Ghoul, because of their cellular regeneration factor.

let's just end it here, this is a classy way to conclude things.

Agreed.

No. I'm firmly of the mind that I'm not someone to listen to, and that Spam isn't something that one should have to listen to someone about, but here's something I think needs to be established. Spam's not a place that needs policing. Do you know when Spam was cool, popular, and funny? When no one tried to be cool, popular, and funny. I've come to know a lot about who those cool, popular, and funny people were in the past several months on a pretty close level, and, lo and behold, they don't act like they're cool, popular, or funny. You're having fun and chatting with people, not networking or brown nosing. You don't need to greet people, defend people, or push all the fake sex shit (see above) to have fun here. Just slack your shoulders. When everyone mellows out, suddenly a popular kid in Spam. Mods don't have to step in when everyone just has fun; no one gets in fights or starts flinging shit at anyone else when everyone just has fun. Anyone remember being Fonz cool? Be Fonz cool, guys. Everyone's a cool kid in Spam when everyone's a Fonz cool kid. Now we're cool.

That was way too much usage of the word cool, but yeah I get what you're saying.

Pot and kettle.

Good point. I guess I have no room to talk in this regard. Which is good, because I didn't intend for this argument to happen in the first place. Are we all still cool or whatever, or do I have to strip for you or something?

I'm p. sure it's their job to enforce the rules, as a matter of fact.

Which are there, in part, to ensure quality and/or standards, no?
