I usually execute people for recalling. I'd only execute for calling if the person's a nonhead. Who even does that shit?

Can we stop giving special snowflake tc trades to zoey webb? Firecage is already the horrible cthulhu lurking beneath the grey tide and helping them out literally every antagonist round is starting to get old.

[cedarbridge]

Its been a while since this post was made.


Fuck non-medbay staff pulling patients away from and past actual medbay staff. 90% of these people have no idea how medbay works and will stuff somebody straight into cryo who doesn't belong there or stuff them into a sleeper and mash every button and think they are smart for it. Just stop. This isn't even the sort of autismal "reeee get out of my treehouse" shit. Its really frustrating trying to do the job properly when every random thinks he knows better than the doctor standing over the patient.

That goes for the borgs too. If you're pulling a crit person away from a doctor or chemist and that doctor/chemist isn't the actual person who put the patient into crit in the first place, fuck off. Dragging them away is a brilliant way to cause human harm. When that doctor/chemist tells you "I've got this borg, fuck off." Do it.

[DemonFiren]

This is why Medical has a syringe gun.

Should I ever end up as medical department sec, though, I'll make sure that anyone pulling this gets a faceful of zap.

As a sometimes medic I thank you for that.

To be on topic, medical personnel dragging people who are dead away from medics who have defibs.

To be fair to borgs, they do have their laws which require them to get critical condition Humans stable ASAP, especially when their healthbar on the medHUD is flashing faster than the time it takes danno to cum.
What really annoys me is people using the medkits, especially since chemists never make refills for them.

Also people who smash windows since I think I am the only person who even bothers to fix windows.

Nah, if the borg is pulling somebody away from active treatment by a medic, he might as well be pulling them out of medbay.

People who do xenobiology manually. I'm waiting for that sweet green slime juice and they've barely got metal while being abused by monkeys. WHY WOULD YOU EVER NOT USE THE MACHINE THAT TELEPORTS SLIMES AND MONKEYS AROUND

That said, if you have a monkey machine upgraded with at least pico-tier, it's by far more efficient to manually grab the monkies and recycle them. (2:3). I like to duo xenobio with either another scientist, or rarely, legitmately get an assistant to help with monkey collection.

To keep on topic, scientists that insist on doing "xenobio 110% mine no fuck you I'm doing it alone, goodbye."
Motherfucker, there's TWO CONSOLES HERE FOR A REASON. WHY ARE YOU HOARDING THE CUBES AAAAAAAH.

I'm of two minds about the last part; on the one hand Xenobio genuinely feels like a very single man, single goal job; and with how hectic how fast some rounds become it is the sort of job where it is best to pick a goal (slime people/meme transformations, or gold slime minion summons) and maximise that, than it does to have two people work towards two different goals.

On the other hand I'm talking out my arse and am autistically protective of muh loner job role.

If you have super bins you can get 54 cubes from six grey slimes, which you should get in a generation or two, and will sustain you for most of the round. The monkey recycler is pretty much a waste of time imo.

Also the issue to two-man xenobio is actually pen storage rather than cubes. A solution to that is splitting the pens with glass panes; as long as they're screwed down, slimes won't break or push them and you have double the pens, since you don't actually need to walk into them. You can also make sections of the large pen, or the corridor in the middle. Once you use glass panes, pens are everywhere.

[AnonymousNow]

As one of, if not the most frequent medical players, I can confirm everything that has been said about the medbay in the last page.

I took a long break from SS13 of several months recently; when I came back for games on two days this week, I had patients pulled from my grip and dying within three rounds.

I've had to neurotox/zombie/beepsky my own medics at least once for that shit. Retards anyone in crit goes to cryo then act surprised when they die. Bonus points if its tox damage.

I know this is pretty much a dead horse but the unaccountable sec team are literally nothing but machines for ruining the game. Sure its cute / funny to play nazis with a bunch of redshirts but the admins don't seem to realize there's people behind those little 2d spacemens and those people aren't having fun by getting their agency yanked away so some redshirt can get his cock hard. Maybe next time someone adminhelps while getting arrested you should actually look at what the sec officer / the player did before hand? Maybe try not just saying 'we'll look into it' and than not doing that. Maybe if there is a legitimate complaint actually save the person who has been bucklecuffed in perma for loitering? I don't care if you gave mister redshirt a nasty bwoink and made him feel a little sheepish if I'm locked in the no fun box.

Its hard to tell what you're asking for here. Do you just want sec to be banned for arresting you? I'm being sincere because this just kinda rambles and leads me to that conclusion.

[Haevacht]

Weepo just sounds hella salty.

On topic: Lawyers who never lawyer anything. Host a mock trial or just talk with sec about prisoners being shits or something.

This means nothing

What do you define as something sec needs to be held accountable for? What does "held accountable" imply for the person in question? Is context relevant? Does the user's past behaviour affect the punishment?

[Davidchan]

The only way you could make sec accountable would be for nonantags to similarly be accountable and banneable for fucking with sec just because. That or a massive revamp of the rules were murder is not acceptable escelation.

I.E. nothing the community or staff would be willing to go through or even viable in most situations.

Glad someone is thinking from this standpoint. The concept is inherently flawed, and it's a lot easier for everyone if admins continue to handle it on a case by case basis.

I'm curious if weepo ahelps when he sees what he considers shitsec acting poorly. That ban I handed out actually prompted some discussion about speaking to players more often about what is considered poor behaviour, and that's not something that can happen if we aren't aware of WHEN the bad shit happens.

I'm not trying to be snide towards anyone in particular, I just think this entire idea was born from the sodium of a round and was not considered beyond "fucking shitcurity" - there's too many holes

I got thrown into the gulag for holding a beartrap near a HoS so he could steal my chaplain sword and shard, he went on to shard someone.

Now I'm all for making policies about not fucking with sec and vice versa or 'if you fuck with cops prepare to win The Prize'. But I don't consider what I did 'fucking with security' more as 'being present while security was looking for a reason to fuck with someone' and what I got was my round ended out of hand and without discussion or a spoken word.

So I am salty and blah blah memes but I will say... that shits a peeve. And doubly a peeve when the admins say: 'We'll look into it' when what they really mean is 'we'll bwoink the guy, listen to his excuse, possibly even take action. But your round is fucking over regardless'

see, that's why I always run straight for the nearest ID computer and make backup IDs
also change the job on my all-access card to what i'm dressed up as

My pro tip is: Steal a wallet, keep a spare captain ID or captain level ID in your wallet and change your ID to captain access Janitor or whatever so that even if the cops find out you're using your all access and confiscate it, they'll take the decoy all access and leave you your original. Or at least thats the theory if you don't encounter Shitcurity, which is more than a meme word. Its really real.

[DemonFiren]

I just hide the backup IDs.
There's plenty of places to do so.

[confused rock]

weepo you may be retarded but that is genius

[InsaneHyena]

Keeping anything beyond your pants AND not being in the permabrig after being caught with all access is a pretty big assumption.

[DemonFiren]

Where the fuck do you think I hide my shit if I feel there's any chance of getting caught?
Box and Meta perma have really ridiculous blind spots. Meta's less so than Box's, but eh.

As it stands, though, usually sec nods and says "eh don't fuck around".

[A3STH3T1CS]

this is why we need sec borgs to follow a different set of laws than sec because shitcurity is a real thing

who do i publicly oust for removing sec borgs again?

[Qbopper]

No offense, but what do you want? After that ban I made I'm making an effort to actively warn people ahead of time for poor behaviour, if it gets out of hand I want to start handing out bans to shitty players, but do you just expect people to revive you because you got meme'd by a shitty sec player? If we did that someone else would ask for it too, and then where is the line drawn

It sucks to get killed, especially by shitty sec players, but like the rules say - sometimes it just happens, and all you can really do is either play a ghost role, hope you get cloned, or back away from the game a bit

It's going to be impossible to ever remove 100% of shitty people doing shitty things - the admins might try (even if you disagree and feel some/most/all aren't), but it's just going to happen.

[dannnnnnnnnnnnnno]

[PKPenguin321]

The one time I've offered revives to somebody who believed they were killed wrongly was when a Russian joined our server and on his first connection he murdered like 4 people with the fire axe as an atmos tech because "lol screw u Americans" which is pretty blatant fucking grief
