I have an incredibly simple solution. Just don't deliver bombs to the shuttle then trigger them as a nonantag.

my mom doesn't go in my room idiot that's what the kitchen is for

The reason why it is a thing is because a lot of people (including me) enjoy having a use for everything made during the shift like mechs and xenobio armblades. The problem is that most of the stuff you can make in many jobs, like hulk, mechs, xenobio, chem death nades and sec toys are really only useful for antags. If I spend 50 minutes on my mech, I do want to be able to use it, even if it's only for one minute at the end of the shift.

If a mech takes you 50 minutes that sounds like a You problem :^)

But this is why I like the TGMC Arena style. If you want to use your stuff you made, you totally still can! But people who want that last minute to wrap up an IC conversation, and others who just want to shitpost about the round, should have just as much right. Zero reason we can't have a situation where the only people who aren't happy are the ones who wanted to kill This Person In Particular.

If he's going to be such a dweeb that the lack of the ability to EORG me makes him decide to metagrudge me in-round then I want him to do it so that I can get a week or more without having him in the server, because they're probably not going to be playing in good faith. It's very simple. If we reach that point, all other methods have failed, and it's probably not the only thing he's doing to shit up the server. If people simply cannot play nice, they don't have to play at all.

just ask yourself you have enough reason to believe youre in danger and if you are, take the steps to protect yourself and your coworkers. pushing someone down who is flashing a bomb is not "grief", especially when done in good faith. Just get creative IC if you dont want to assault the bomb out of their hands

1. Push him down
2. Someone else gets the bomb and opens the valve
3. ???

It's the disco inferno law: if it can light up, it will.

Again, what grief is being caused by <you> in the scenario? if another person opens the valve they either

1. had perfect timing, along with antag status (ss13 moment) but
2. did actual grief for no reason, which should be easy for an admin to handle

shoving someone down in a desperate attempt to disarm them of their bomb to save yourself and your coworkers is normal

shoving someone down in order to grab their bomb and kaboom it yourself (or something similarly stupid) is nonsensical and failrp when you havent docked at centcomm yet
