Space Station 13 (and most successors) are 2D, multiplayer, role-playing video game(s) originally created by Exadv1 in 2003 on a shitty 90s Multi-user Dungeon engine BYOND (formerly DUNG) your wildest dreams. Stay alive on the most paranoid and unlucky space station possible! This thread is mainly focused on milk from the cows, not playing the game.
Q: I wanna play on our community server, not watch lolcows!?
A: You can play our kiwistation ss13 server HERE.


The intro is split into several posts for conciseness due to the 22 year history of the game.
  1. Intro and milk found on the communities (YOU ARE HERE)
  2. Historical overview of SS13 and the relationship between codebases link HERE
  3. Specific individual moments of lolcowdom and milk worth mentioned in itself HERE

Q: I'm not understanding X term?
A: See the spoiler glossary beneath this. If still confused, see the SS13 history post below this one.

Q: The fuck is SS14 and unity station, among others?
A: Those are "remakes/remasters" who thing they can make the game better by re-inventing the wheel, since the original game engine is jank as hell and the game engine dev is over 60 years old. Most milk come from SS13 and SS14

Q: What is /tg/, bay, and goon?
A: They are the major codebases in ss13 from which servers change their code to be unique. See 2nd thread post.

Q: Can I contribute to this flaming dumpster fire?
A: Yes. OP is a lazy faggot.

Types of milk
Unfortunately, much (older) milk is by word of mouth or posts, given the 22 years of game history. (CONTRIBUTIONS WANTED). They are examples and not exhaustive, explaining them would hit the word limit and make the OP unnecessarily longer than it already is.
  • Troons
"Dev" suicide or fake suicide? (intra-site link)

Tranny comes to @geckogoy 's server, ran off like a little bitch and shredded on 4chan.

Oh shit, no wonder I remember the ckey "archinist". He is from VG, according to the archives he played the most (probably unintentionally) retarded and incompetent HoP. He IC-trooned out after being made fun of for a while, started only playing random femoids. Constantly ahelped, so much so he ended up in their hall of shame (on a terminally over-administrated server). Guessing he played since at least 2018, was very likely underage, and given that he is still retarded now, he might still be.
My only regret is not also calling him a faggot in OOC because I was too busy trying to clown on the tranny-posting captain... *sigh*

The Communities and history overview


History of SS13
It is beyond the scope of this thread to go through the entirety of SS13 and all its servers. Such an exercise would be in futility given the rapid succession of servers. As such, I refer you to the goonstation and /tg/ station wiki (Archive-goon, Archive-/tg/) on the history of the game.

This document will attempt to flesh out history not explained, and history now deleted in the purity spirals now so common.

In re: Lack of sources <2018.
Much of the old lore and drama is lost to the link rot of time. You'll have to accept the author (and others') recollections. Tread with suspicion, after all the author is a bayfag.



Pre-Opensource era (2003-2009)
[To be added pending verification of some lore]

The big three (2010-2013)

This era is the utter dominance of Goonstation, baystation, and /tg/.

Goon originates from the Something Awful forums, for which there is a thread. Baystation originated from the bay12 forums (Dwarf Fortress) around 2007-2009. /tg/ originated from 4chan's /tg/ board around 2010.

Baystation lost association with bay12 around 2009/2010. See old forum thread here (archive). The original baycode was not based off of goon (disputed), but was rebased to the 2009 goon's SVN in the early days and this codebase is lost to time after multiple rapid ownership changes of Baystation's github.




The third generation, Licensing issues and major improvements (2013-2019)
At around this time, more servers with unique features began to appear, this includes Traitor Death Match (TDM), Facepunch / Corporate Mercenaries, /vg/, Paradise, Colonial Marines, Animus Station (first major RU server), Tau Ceti (Major RU server), Apollo amongst others.

Baystation would two more times, once to 4407 codebase ("Luna") and then to /tg/ due to code issues. Many RP servers would follow suit andthis would later culminate in a major split, the creation Polaris (c. 2012-2014) which is the upstream codebase for many HRP roleplay communities like V.O.R.E and later most significantly today, Aurora. Baystation would never "fully recover" from this and the "bay is dead" line became an ironic joke in the playerbase. Somewhere around 2016-2018, baystation would join the hub publicly.

5Mh7gvri7PO32oc4WjuY-Q_ONXClwOt1sQdA3CfqOkQ.png
F-Tang and Sabrina were both major baydevs at one point. Rip the old bay forums, an endless salt-mine.

Another major instance of public drama in this era here is the collapse of BestRP and it's successor Unbound Travels. It is the first "major" instance of server drama that survived linkrot. See the post for specific milk.
tl;dr: Purlek took server money and DDOSed other servers and was a giant fag. Shitshow ensues.

Paradise would eventually become the pseudo-sucessor to UT, but these events would be repeated many times in the future...



Code licensing issues
The original two SS13 code sources were Gibbed's decompilation resulting in the current Goon codebase and r4407 (archive) as BY-NC-SA 3.0 and Hobnob's decompilation under LGPL-3 (Archive). Hobnob's decompilation is not known to have been used in any major downstreams aside from possibly pre-goon baystation.

However, /tg/ and Baystation all use GPLv3 for the licensing, but are both based off r4407. This marks them in violations of the BY-NC-SA 3.0 license. It is not compatible with the GPL, Goonstation seems unlikely/unwilling to enforce it, however...

In 2015, /tg/ moved from GPL3 to AGPL (archive) to close what is known as the "ASP (Application Service Provider) loophole", this allowed for one to keep the source code "private" because software over a network is not considered "distribution". In 2016 (Archive) (but origins are earlier). /tg/ introduced new Master Controller known as StonedMC (written by MSO), a major improvement over the previous master controllers reducing lag. Unsurprisingly, most current codebases incorporated it and are now AGPL.
This has led to milk in situations where DMCA take-downs, lawsuits, and other shenanigans occurred over the licensing.



The ssethtide (2019)
In 2019, a youtube named SsethTzeentach made a video of SS13. Après lui le déluge. Videos and pictures explain this easier.

For context on the two graphs, high pop pre-sethtide was around 50 for /tg/ and goon, ~20-40 for rpfags. It jumped up to over ~200+ for some servers post tide.





ERP server dominance on the Hub, and 3rd generation servers (2020+)
ERP or "Erotic Roleplay", is when people go and internet sex on text in SS13. ERP has always been around since the earliest versions of the game. Originally most rulesets allowed to admins to clown on erpers (Notably Goon and Bay). However, they were mostly all banned by the era of 2015 off publically listed servers on the hub.

At someone point, ERP became the most popular servers on the hub. The author believes it was Citadel that started this trend. Some notable servers of these include:


Vorestation - Origin of most current ERP servers, has vore code for vore fetishists and snowflake (custom) races
Paradise - No ERP but furfag adjacent
Aurora - No ERP but had a seperate apartment server which caused ERP and drama
Citadel - Major cross over with SS14 and /tg/, especially headcoder Kevinz/Sillicons
CHOMP
NTF (Nine Taled Fox) - Colonial Marines but ERP with xenos (hello lusty Xenomorph maid)
Fallout servers - Designed for ERP by some Russian retard
Bastion of Hestia/Vesta - Baystation ship map + Vore code



Baystation devs leave in 2020 for Nebula
Baystation in 2020 had an incident culminating with the majority of the dev team leaving after being bitched at by admins. The maintainer for the baystation codebase known as Sabrina/Babydoll (archive) stepped down, and MistakeNot4892 (A major baystation contributor since Luna) created Nebula (archive) shortly after, as "a modular codebase for developing more flavored versions without having debt". Other notable contributors who left around that time include the following, Chinksy (archive), Xales/Mloc (archive, a higher up admin on bay), Mikomyazaki (archive), Daniel Thompson/Cakey/CakeQ (archive), Lohikar (archive), Psycommando (archive), and Mattoks (archive).

Mistake (and some others) would return to Baystation for a period as a coder before leaving permanently.


SS14
SS14 has been in the works since early 2015. The major player to this is PJB (who has his own post). The gist of this story is that the game is not in a functional state, the code is a mess, and a cabal of the main branch devs ("Wizden") are all insane and will deauthenticate a server preventing new players due to wrongthink.

Wizden v. Skye

Syke is the leader of SSMV (Space Station Mutiverse), a fork of the Wizden authentication toolset due to the insanity of troons like PJB for blocking anyone they don't like from the game.
Unsurprisingly, they make some shitty ass porn game. Surprisingly, Jezithyr (a now former Wizden higher up) cracked Skye's porn game on F95zone, a porn game website (archived as pictures as thread is private), causing Syke to go on a muti-page meltdown on F95 and post this (archive) 4,000 word long criticism of Wizden.

p1.pngp2.pngp3.pngp5.pngp6.png

Oh, Jesse Rougeau's also aware of our forum and our host:
rantatnull.png





The coup of /tg/ against it's host MSO
MSO, or Mister Stonedone (@A Bear In The Woods), is a "Men's right activist" and repressed homosexual living in Seattle, Washington. He has single handedly been the host of /tg/'s back-end since around 2010 to 2025.

The long story short is that he was that he wanted to be in a "Host Emertius" situation, got upset at an (alleged) IRL woman admin and deadmined them, sperged out and pulled the plug. He continues to try and farm attention here and on reddit.

See this for a quick explaination.


YOU-ARE-HERE



The Million Dollar Question
Some of you reading the first time may being asking the question, was SS13 always troon infested? Was it filled beginning to end with autistic males? Well here is your (closest) answer, a (WARNING: GOOGLE LINK) survey conducted and posted to reddit in 2020 (survey archive, reddit archive).
Diagram över formulärsvar. Namn på fråga: What is your (main) characters gender?. Antal svar: 389 svar.

Diagram över formulärsvar. Namn på fråga: Does your (main) character's ethnicity and/or gender match your gender?. Antal svar: 382 svar.
Diagram över formulärsvar. Namn på fråga: where do you live?. Antal svar: 412 svar.
Diagram över formulärsvar. Namn på fråga: What is your age?. Antal svar: 417 svar.
Key takeaways:
  • The poll is 417 people, so approximately ~15% of the playerbase at the tail end of 2020 ssethtide (~2500-3000 pop)
  • The playerbase is overwhelmingly male
  • The players are generally from North America and Europe
  • ~15% of the playerbase self profess to be men larping as women
  • The incidence of playing as someone not your ethnicity is higher than larping as a woman.
  • Plebbitors are fucking retarded for answering a google poll.


SS13 "successors"

Mostly taken from /tg/'s wiki page here (archive)

  • SS13 Remake - (Archive) dead remake by goons in C#, later became base for SS14


Understanding Codebases

There are several major codebases within SS13 itself, and then the "remakes": The big two this thread focuses on are SS13 (a) and SS14 (a) since the majority of milk derives from these two.


A partial source code tree can be found hidden in this spoiler (warning: 2k resolution file)
codebase_trees.png
Q: WTF is this and why is this relevant?
A: A detailed, complete, history of SS13 would be outside the context of this thread, a general explanation of the history of SS13 and the major codebases, with their respective differences in play-style is explained below, some lesser known codebases are noted for milk.



SS13 Codebases

  • Goonstation (Revision 4407)
This codebase it is the origin branch for almost all major servers past and present, including the two major non-goon codebases, /tg/ and Bay
  • Goonstation (Current)
Goonstation was closed sourced until 2020. The code is notably different from all other codebases and uses a BY-NC-SA license. Gameplay differs significantly from other major branches and there are many "in-jokes" the normal SS13 player would not understand.
  • /tg/ Station
/tg/ station originated from r4407 on 4chan's /tg/ game board. Notable for the introduction of the AGPL license with Stoned MC after 2015/01/08 00:00 GMT to all code affecting many other codebases. Several figures moved on to SS14. Has fast paced combat (only 2 intents vs 4) and less emphasis on role-play, with native BYOND compile not supported.
  • Baystation ("Luna" and GPL)
Luna is an old fork of the r4407 codebase by Baystation. It is no longer actively developed. However, it is the "most recent" open sourced code which a closed-source server can be made. Notable active downstream are Lifeweb, Colonial Marines, and D2k5.
  • Baystation (AGPL)
The current Baystation originated from the bay12 forums (Dwarf Fortress), but has long shed the association. Baystation is/was the other major branch of SS13 from /tg/. Many features are reworked to facilitate better roleplay. Notable differences include using ZAS compared to /tg/ LINDA, in-game mechanics limited by age/rank, more lethal medical with no cloning ("Brainmed"), a movable ship as the "station".

  • V.O.R.E Station
An indirect dowstream of AGPL Bay (technically Polaris), V.O.R.E. station is the originator of many an "ERP" (Erotic roleplay) branches and associated lunacy. It has somehow avoided itself from allegations of pedophillia and ERP with minors to the author's knowledge. Not listed publicly on the server list.
  • Fallout Servers
/tg/ AGPL downstream. Original idea dev/spriter was yeeted from the now defunct baystation forums. Many are 18+ ERP furry servers that you can allegedly fuck a deathclaw. Original Fallout13 dev wanted it to be an ERP server so no suprise.

  • Lifeweb
Closed source based of r4407. Run by a Russian and has heavy roleplay standard. Source of two major incidents of milk. Used to require an old < 2016 account or money to enter. Very different from all other branches. Spawned a bunch of /tg/ AGPL derived clones popular on the hub as of 2024.
  • Citadel
ERP server, Citadel had two servers, main (/tg/) and RP (VORE). Notable as several figures transitioned into SS14. Nowdays mostly dead. Origin spiritually of most current high pop ERP/furry codebases. Several coders code/work on SS14.



SS14 Codebases

Randy/Randy Sandy
Randy is the host of Lifeweb. A closed source, invite (or pay to play) server based off of Baystation Luna. He had been jailed for being an addict and is some drunk slav in the post-soviet states who grifts money out of burgerfats and the english speaking world. Watch this video for the overview:

Lifeweb had really unique features (and drama) when it came out. Including but not limited to child rape mechanics, pedophiles, necrophiliacs (See, page 47 to ~49 for the discussion about the extend this was tacitly allowed). Also csam spam causing the forums to go down, and DSP tier shilling for donos.

I'm an amateur self-taught programmer, primarily in PHP/MySQL. I do have some very minor experience toying around with other languages such as Python, Visual Basic, and JavaScript - Funnily enough, my first experience in any form of programming/scripting was in writing VBScript plugins for a piece of software called StealthBot, and yet here I am with little to no real experience in VB, and working on projects in PHP instead.

I currently work for a company as a web developer, handling back-end systems that generate XML files from SQL data, transmit these XML files to a third party, retrieve response XML files, and parse the responses, as well as the program that handles calculating accounting and tax data.

Spookerton
Spookerton is the host/head developer of Polaris (archive, a now-dead fork of Bay). They also took over as bayhost and killed off baystation (after leaving it in 2014) in 2020 after fighting with the devs. Britfag supposedly but not confirmed.

Notable user of exploiters and spoofing CID's to grief servers. Funny and hates furries. Built an aimbot and exploit dll which was released/leaked to 8chan. Dropped by Rivera station at one point?

BestRP/Unbound Travels/Aphelion Project

BestRP was started by AbbeyRiley 2013/2014 ish. Abbey quit and shutdown the server sometime in 2014 (with Necladun from that going off to form Paradise), Purlek "took over" as the server had no forums or contact method, pushed all the work to Emanuel Basil. Took "donations", spent it all on private shit and ddosing other servers (archive). The game master (and subsequent host) sshado with Emmanuel Basil (another GM) then posted paypal receipts of this retardation (only partial receipts were recovered). Luz were had.
Source 1 (a), source 2 (a), sshado's github (a), source 3 (a), source 4 (a), Code licensing drama, (a), related pastebin (a).
Bonus: Purlek not banning underaged (14) admin posting nudes (archive).

sshado then rebranded BestRP into Unbound Travels, where it failed to make it HRP. Died (a) and went to Jamie (Jamiedigweed), where it was hosted on some school computer until it died a befitting death spawning many drama threads on reddit. Emannuel Bassil (also a mod on /r/catholicisim lmao archive) would eventually move to bay.

source 1 (a), source 2 (a), misc bs drama from UT on reddit ( a1,a2), Yithani drama (a), more adminbuse (a).
Peppermint and Oranges (/tg/)
Peppermint was /tg/ station as the symbol of degeneracy and her relationship with Oranges, /tg/ maintainer. It can be sumed up in exactly these three images below It has been rumored there is rule34 of peppermint x oranges, I don't bother looking for it.

Overdue, thank god.

And with all the gay remakes maybe have a list of them somewhere. If they are alive or dead and how infested with retards they are.

Edit: Related is this video, best piece of remake content imo

This looks like a promising thread, great work. Minor suggestion, I think putting the glossary and a general intro about the game near the beginning would flow better, but otherwise this is looking quite good. Keep up the good work. The archinist and tranny dev suicide moments are pretty funny, maybe flesh out their sections a bit more.
 
@FinnTech This one's for you and anyone else brave enough to delve into the madness:

Insanity takes many forms, but none so contemptible as loon's belief in a psuedo-mythology of their own making. A non-nonsensical world view reinforced by degeneracy and impracticality leads to a single-minded fanaticism, a need to do evil against others in the name of "equality".

I wholeheartedly support this thread, there is so much that I witnessed just by interacting with these freaks just a few times a week, ever since I got back into my ss13/14 gaming craze. It's boggling to see how much a culture of a game series can change when you're not looking.


I just hope things get better for the future of these games, as I can see them sticking as classics.
 
Jesus, there are still people trying to make a "sequel" to SS13? I remember a decade ago when someone (from Goonstation I think?) was trying to remake SS13 with larger sprite sizes and that died after a few months.
 
surprised the biggest drama i remember, apophis, the former CMSS13 lead dev who was ousted for being associated with 3d sims nude model communities or some similar pedo scandals to that, all while teaching gamedev in a school, hasn't been mentioned yet. essential for the OP.

Would Tex's interview with the original creator be relevant to this thread?
Tex also did a bunch of interviews with various admins and devs and can be found in the occasional interview playlist.

Yes. I'm not to familar with CM and if you have the receipts it would be great. He's tangentially mentioned alongside Fwehs (however it was spelled) DM CA getting DMCA'd by MSO.

As more people are introduced to autist hobbies like SS13, Dwarf Fortress and WH40k through funny YouTube retellings, there's going to be constant pushes for easy mode with pretty graphics if not for money then to simplify the game for gay retards to eventually grift money from.

Happened with DnD, star wars and a whole slew of other things. It'll happen to all of them at some point. I just bless my lucky stars that some of my hobbies are untouched and some I can "pick around" the rot.
 
I need receipts/sources/clarifications for the following

  1. Goonstation 2016 election drama and the Goon/Something Awful split
  2. The collapse story behind BestRP/UT as I am not familiar with the intricacies side from the major hosts.
  3. The Polaris/Aurora split
  4. ERP and pedo accusations on Aurora and other servers to present day
  5. Total furfag death glory years
  6. Introduction of traja (furfag bait) to ss13
  7. Overview of other major servers like Hippie, Paradise, Facepunch, Apollo
  8. The Seethtide
  9. CM's head dev getting outed for grooming minors
  10. /vg/ and PJB's history
  11. Citadel lore and drama (including the underaged headmin) alongside the major staff who moved to SS14.
  12. Spookerton drama with baydevs that led to nebula
  13. Vorestation host phonebooking (pretty sure they were eurofags)

Nice, well laid out thread so far, I'll be keeping an eye on this. I've heard for SS13 for years but never played it, these small communities sometimes have the most insane lore around them.

Reactions: The Bogwater Rises
Wizden (SS14) v. Jeziythr (ex-Wizden)
Correction: It was Wizden including Jezithyr vs Skye, some random furry porn game creator who, in Jez's words, "stole an open source game"
Furries, ERP, and underage shit
One of the premier SS14 devs is Javier Guardia Fernandez, who is a necrozoophile with one of the most fucked up f-lists ever. Literally the first google result for least degenerate furry. PJB's consistent defense of him is what caused the most disproportionate amount of drama out of anything. His boyfriend, Jesse Rougeau AKA Jezithyr, is also the most retarded and most classic lolcow out of anyone, having the first google result for their name be furry porn piracy drama.

Trump Derrangement Syndrome - The 2016 election broke many ss13 players and ostensibly started the spiral into insanity.
I would remove this and replace with:
- Plural Systems
- Fediverse and Bluesky
PJB on the ss14 server who deserves his own writeup (linked here [WIP])
PJB is probably the most well documented SS13 / SS14 person. His attachment to /vg/ means he turns up easily on 4chan archive searches. If you need anything at all for the writeup I should be able to find it.
