Re: Is it wrong to borg a corpse instead of taking them to medbay?

Forcing someone to become a borg when they don't want to be one is generally considered forceborging. Forcing someone to be a borg is considered equivalent to round removal. It is not round removal, but if you can't validly round remove someone then you probably can't validly borg them without their...

Re: Is it wrong to borg a corpse instead of taking them to medbay?

Administrately we usually approach forceborging as equivalent to round removal. If you're not valid to round remove them, you're not valid to forceborg them.

Consensual borging is fine. Getting consent via MMI is trivial and MMI is a pre-requisite to borging.
