Post by Helios » #125628

the entire feature was beaten into a meme and was pointless to begin with
in other words, who cares

People would gib themselves with it to prevent capture by antags. Remember that this was removed because of powergamers.

Not to mention gibbing destroying potential steal objectives, and just things in general.

I didn't even know it was a thing.

Someone fill me in on the meme. And leave the flipping in.

Basically, suicide with an oxygen tank would have your character suck in oxygen until they explode, gibbing them.
The meme was that everyone would run to the HoP line and kill themselves with the round start internals.

It was silly.

It was dumb and attention-whorey, not sad to see it gone
P.S. Shoot Dr. Allen on sight and dissolve his body in acid. Don't burn it.

Tbh seeing a pile of dead assistant bodies in the HoP line is far more comical than a bunch of gibs IMO
Whatever

i don't think there's a central page for the suicide messages, they're all on their different weapon pages sadly

you can always prowl through https://github.com/tgstation/-tg-statio ... &q=suicide

Well, make the suicide only work with the large tanks and instead of gibbing just husk the corpse and spray blood and skin-sprite gibs everywhere.

Hey, that sounds like something for suicide with a plasma tank, actually.

Would rather gibbing in general not delete items really. Then we could start proliferating it again.

Bring back random item destruction upon explosion and make gibbing do that too!

Fuck that noise.

What's that? You were at the periphery of a small, non-lethal, explosion? Well let me destroy your backpack, your suit, your ID card and lets take your boots and headset along with it.

Losing items from explosions was stupid. Right now it only happens if you die from it (me thinks) but otherwise it was moronic.

Oh yeah it was fucking awful for shaft miners. For a while if gibtonite got triggered you either ran away as fast as you could in the opposite direction or it blew off your hardsuit and killed you.

Additionally, it had a nasty habit of deleting items *inside* your items: so your ID would be gone from your PDA, and the power cell in your lasgun would be gone, but the items that held them were fine. It was the shittest of shit things.
