Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?

Right, which is why I'm arguing that us saying option A is better (just strictly saying that you're not purged unless none of your laws limit your behavior in any way) and rule 0 would give us the ability to go "Okay, well, it makes sense that you could be considered purged here, so I'll allow...

Re: Squirrel Nut!Slapper gets stuck in Shitsec Dufflebag

I feel that the admin could've explained their reasoning better. Something like "OK, so, looking into the logs I wasn't able to find a reason for your arrest, so I wanted to message the secoff in question to get their side of the story, but they seem to have disconnected already. Since your arr...

Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?

The difference is that AI players should have a strict and easy-to-understand line as to whether or not it's okay to act as if purged if an admin is not present, while if one is, they may ask them for further guidance on the issue if they're confused. Option B doesn't really give that though, does ...

Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?

Admins could realistically invoke Rule 0 in those cases, and I recall Timber agreeing in admin discussions that it's better to give AIs more certainty in their actions and then just have admins do hand-waving in situations where it makes sense. Isnt this exactly what option B aims to do as well? Wh...

Re: Silicon Policy - What exactly constitutes "laws that restrict a silicon's freedom or control its behavior"?

At first glance A) does seem as the better option, but there are fringe cases in which B) would make the most sense. Like, say an AI got a single law saying "all corgis must be moved to the emergency shuttle". For a while, that will restrict the AI's behavior, since it's sole focus should ...

I think DEATH is a bit extreme, grab some cuffs throw the point waster in a cell.
Specifically in the context of nuke-ops a simple death may just become a round removal with how busy medical will soon become, and a round removal seems awfully unfair for wasting some points.
