If we did that someone else would ask for it too, and then where is the line drawn

So you'll intervene on the meta level to ban people and leave their braindead body to stand in the halls while greyshirts steal their ID and equipment but reviving someone who is, by your metrics, the victim of banworthy bullshit is TOO FAR, SLIPPERY SLOPE, MY IMMERSION

Just add a button that awards a one round one time respawn token, allow them to come back under a different name or something, or have a cent-com pardon come down from on high, add their genetic IDs to the cloner remotely as part of that process... Anything, otherwise essentially the griefing party succeeds regardless of what happens since none of their actions will actually be undone, once they fuck you, you're fucked.

Fuck you chemists.

I've been playing for too long to take your shit acting so god damn entitled over a machine I can take in 5 seconds vs waiting for you cucks to come out of maint. just to wait another 3 minutes with some roleplaying idiot who won't give me my unstable mutagen for botany unless I return some dumb meme flirt.

People want to talk shit about removing secborgs but can't remove the biggest cancer of all, chemists who have autistic fits because someone can dispense chemicals faster than them.
You stupid Breaking Bad roleplayers have got me killed, got my co-workers killed, had me leave botany and wait 10 minutes for 90u of unstable mutagen and come back to it either on fire, broken into, or exploded, sometimes all at once.

If I had any role in gameplay mechanics, I'd remove you and replace you for an authorized lock system on the chem dispensers so we could have more room for cloning or medkits.

I'll never not break into chemistry if I don't see anyone in there.

Wordless greytide. It's one thing to cluck around because then at least it's flavor. If I wanted nameless hostiles flying at me from second zero I'd play a single player game.

When people can't cooperate as departments/others. I know it's partially a meme but it's also 'Who here isn't socially disabled?' When all the namedboys are pissing in eachothers shoes and trying to build one man do-it-all bunkers in a 10-80 player experience.

I also can't decide whose on the Ligger joke for the memes and who is actually projecting some honest unresolved OOC issues. When someone's marching behind you spamming FILTHY FUCKING LIGGERS and blowing 10 minutes vehemently spamming trip/punch on me I stop having a giggle and start wondering if their stepdad is black.

People who think this.

You can mass produce basic healing chems, and please do! Just ask for your chems and/or chemmaster. Or break in from the interior side so you don't let everyone have access to cfl3 because you wanted a machine.

You can't make a sleeper. Or Cryo. And you don't have a surgery table. And if someone needs healing you don't currently have, it takes you longer to make it.

If the chemists are being bitches get a borg or AI to let you in the nice way, don't break my medbay to get yourself mutagen.

And they're entitled to it because it's literally their machine.

Jegub · Post by **Jegub** » Thu Feb 02, 2017 5:36 pm #250947

I always get a sinking feeling when I see that a dispenser has been removed, regardless of which job I'm doing. I guess it counts as a peeve since I'm posting here.

I appreciate that it can be frustrating if no one is around to dole out mutagen, or they're busy, or they're new and agonise about handing out hazardous chemicals before eventually making you thirty units. The good news is that with an understanding of the basic foundations of spess botany you don't need mutagen to get things rolling these days.
First off, you will need to unlock your vendors and start some glowshrooms growing. Improving the yield is desirable since R&D will most likely want a couple in due course, but either way you should start them early given their lengthy maturation time.
Examine a bottle of Left4Zed and you will learn that it "causes significant mutations in plants". It does so at the point of harvest, so set three packs of pumpkin seeds to Production Speed 1 and plant them in Left4Zed. Numerous plants offer this trait, such as wheat or potatoes. Don't bother with changing anything else.
There are lots of things you could be doing in the short time it should take to yield results; most labs benefit from some careful rearranging of their trays, optimised melons will keep you in food, biomass and emergency compost, buffing the yield of replica pod seeds will let you start stockpiling them in case cloning goes down, and so forth. Once you get blumpkin and glowshroom seeds the rest should be self explanatory.
If a chemist served you quickly and you got a lucky mutation right off the bat, then you might produce mutagen blumpkins a bit faster than if you follow this method. But averaged over a number of rounds this will give you more dependable success.

Let's say you've decided to breed toxin-consuming transparent light-emitting kudzu, and you need a good supply of phenol and sterilizine. Why not ask the science department to make you a portable dispenser in exchange for the plants you should be developing for them?

One chemist can quickly deplete a dispenser over the course of stocking up medbay, so having the other sitting mostly idle in another department can impair the station. And that's without considering the probability that another chemist will arrive.
While it is to be hoped that a redundant chemist would not share the lack of concern for others demonstrated by a kleptomaniac pseudo-botanist, they might feel the need to express their frustrations without giving due consideration to any other current or potential users of the Hydroponics lab. Heaven forbid that they

Take two large beakers.
Make 100 units of fluorosulphuric acid in beaker 1, decant 25 units into beaker 2, then top up beaker 1 with water.
Make 25 units of fluorosurfactant in beaker 2, then top it up with sulphuric acid.
because the ensuing foam would destroy any and all hydroponic trays that it touched, along with the plants contained within.

It is a fact that Hydroponics takes time to blossom into its full glory, and that you will often find yourself denied this opportunity by a fourth consecutive engine containment failure. The only time I think I would consider asking for a chemistry dispenser would be when there was a critical threat to the station that necessitated the swift production and dissemination of explosives, such as a declaration of war from nuke ops or rampant ragin' mages.

I hope that botanists will come to take pride in their knowledge of the potential of the tools designated to them, and demonstrate the patience that their craft has traditionally required. Then the notion of a chemist returning from setting up cryo to find their lab vandalised might be consigned to the past.

Well, that was cathartic, thanks. I'll go now.

One time I was a doctor and the HoP ran into medbay with like 3 brute. He stopped and said "I hope you don't mind if I take some medkits just in case." I told him I would greatly prefer if he didn't do that. "Too bad, I'm doing it anyways and if you stop me I'll shoot you."

Peeved me right off. I think I ended up getting shot in the process of morphining and beating him.

To be honest, one of these days I'm just gonna take the medkits and put them in the medical locker and only tell the other MDs where they are. I'm so sick of seeing people smash the window to get at the medkits when there's a perfectly functional sleeper and an idle doc right next to one another. Or hell, ask the AI to do it.

This is part of the reason I kinda like the new(er) medchems. If you're making the fancy high-end stuff, they're literally only useful if the patient is already in super bad shape and their OD punishments are fairly severe. So when the dickass assistant runs up with 10 brute and eats the whole fridge of silicyclic acid patches I get to go back to carpeting the lab while he dies outside my window.

I think admins usually ask for both sides before checking logs

It makes it all the sweeter when the admin is like "oh shit" and says that you're good lol
