Reason for Warning: use of an OOC term: nukies

What lead up to the warning: cargo had a telepad and bought a gambling crate full of nuclear operative NPCs, I was the HOS and was only informed there was 5 blood reds at cargo, once I got there and saw that they were NPCs I announced in command comms that it was "gamba nukies"

Why it should be removed: I do not believe nukies is an OOC term, its more of an LRP term, Second, im pretty sure command is allowed to use the terminology amongst themselves, and third, I was in a combat situation and wanted to get the message across as quickly as possible, and saying gamba nukies is gonna be faster than saying gamba terrorists or gamba blood reds, the situation was intense and I dont think I should get a warning for use of an LRP term in a high stakes situation, if it is actually ruled as a OOC term, i still think the situation does not call for a warning to be given,

Hi, I'll be handling your appeal today. As it is an appeal for a warning this is not subject to an admin vote. Your appeal has been accepted.

Using the term Nukies, either as a member of command who does not have a metashield for nukies, or a member of the crew who's been told about nukies with that word used, is fully ok under our rules. The same goes for every other antag in the game.

Many players do not use these terms because they find them immersive, and instead say things like terrorists, gorlex operatives, etc. But it is still permitted to just say nukies.
