Re: ITT: We make shitty suggestions and come up with poor id

Give borgs their own, "localized" Vox/announcement system just like the AI has, but only make it so local mobs can hear it, and have it be used in the voice of the security compil-onator instead of the AI one.

Oh wait, I wanted this to be taken seriously. Oh well.
