Prisoners are just like any other job. They don't have a license to grief, so you shouldn't treat them like this.

I feel like using prisoners for experiments is the kind of based emergent RP the job is there to create.
Surely a dystopian megacorporation would absolutely use criminals for human testing.

I would agree with this if prisoners had lenient escalation rules (or an antag status like abductor). You can't really have a "pick this to get griefed" role without said role being able to retaliate.

Because that's rather boring? Like, if you want to treat prisoner like a punching bag, go ahead... but it's clearly not designed for this.

I'm not an admin so I don't really know. I'd assume not. However, I could see an admin banning a player the only wants to fight sec.

My main issue with this is that it's an extremely one sided interaction (Good luck beating a somewhat competent secoff as solo prisoner) and prisoner isn't really designed for this. From what I've seen they're treated like a normal job (It's also recommended to new players on the wiki!), so this is the equivalent of a security officer cuffing some random MD and giving him to a heretic.

This is cringe and the secoff should be given a bollocking for this. It's not like it was an MD or the RD who asked, just some random hobo greyshirt walked in, demanded a prisoner and was handed him in cuffs. That's the same as just opening the brig doors and throwing the prisoners out roundstart as far as I'm concerned, and sec aren't meant to do that either.

Prisoner being recommended for new players on the wiki is stupid imo we shouldn't be telling new players to try the sit there and do nothing/get trolled by sec (as content) job as their first impressions of ss13.
We should be recommending assistant so they can kill themselves on doors as their forefathers did before them, and maybe cargo tech so they can push crates / walk around delivering mail/crates so they can learn the maps.
Someone should fix this big time.

I made the policy thread about releasing the prisoners roundstart.
The end result was the headmins making a ruling that didn't touch on the issue I brought at all. viewtopic.php?f=85&t=32347&p=654627&hil ... er#p654627

I agree. But it's hard to create a job like this that balances between "This will enable RP" and "This will make sec vs prisoners every round ". Prisoner was designed to be a "chill" hangout in perma role, so it needs a complete policy and maybe even code rewrite before it can move away from being just another job.

I think I'm okay with using prisoners for experiments, but I'm not convinced that's what happened here? Unless I'm missing something it looks like they just gave the prisoner to a random assistant.

There's a difference between handing a prisoner over to R&D/medical for experimentation and just giving him to a person in a grey jumpsuit.

Sec can release the perma prisoners round start if they want to on LRP

In this thread headmins disallowed promoting the prisoners to sec FNR/round start on MRP only.
So it stands to reason that you would be allowed to promote prisoners to security roundstart if you wanted to on LRP, which is essentially the same thing as releasing them.

"You can freely grief roundstart prisoners" is just a bad take.
Roleplay wise, they're in prison for a reason. If Central wanted them dead, they would be. If they wanted them to suffer cruel experiments, they'd tell the crew as much. Being held prisoner is implied by their title, torture is not.
Rules-wise, they're not antagonists, don't have relaxed escalation, and giving them to any rando who walks up is a huge rule 1 break- especially when the rando is stated to have violent intent.

Still, I'd worry about punishing for this- I'd rather this interaction with a prisoner than no interaction at all, which is what security usually does.

Also, agree with Vekter here, you're better than this Imitates.

This analogy might be fucked up, but just hear me out. This also not me speaking as a admin, this is me speaking as a player and this opinion, unlike my other ones, suck.

Imagine, if you will, someone pushed you, or, whatever, and tumbled you over into a nearby hole. He realizes what he has done then recovers you, drags you to the hospital, and gets arrested by the proper authorities. After you recover (it wasn’t that bad of a fall) you proceed to file a complaint to the police department arguing that instead they should’ve been given the a higher/life sentience. The officers cross their arms and argue that they have already given a stern talking to not to do it again.

Then, you proceed to shout aloud “THIS HAS INSPIRED ME!! I CAN’T BELIEVE HOW MUCH POSSIBILITIES YOU CAN DO AS A PERSON! I’M GOING TO COMMIT CRIMES, STAB SOMEONE, AND PUSH THEM INTO A 10 FEET DEEP HOLE!

Come on, you’re better than this. Not only is this stupid, it literally takes it too far for a stupid video game, where you’re supposed to accept the horrible possibilities of your character as a prisoner. But, yeah, honestly, the point of round start killing prisoners is super lame, and a ruling should be done to disallow that. I just don’t want them to be stupid and take rule enforcement the completely opposite way. It sucks.

Just because one admin allows something, doesn’t mean another allows it. Stop thinking we are omnipresent. We are not.

Anyone who says or does something like this deserves to immediately be hurled in the sun. It’s so infuriating and it happens all the time. We get it, stripping a ruling of all context and broadly applying it to every possible situation gives you freedom to run around the halls shooting people and it’s not your fault it’s the admin’s.

I genuinely think we should explore the depths of what level of fuckery is allowed with prisoners, and I am in no way upset any more, and am quite thankful to you for allowing me to realize there is genuine roleplay depth to be had in this space. Perhaps this could be turned into a Policy Discussion.

I really do think there's a difference between what happened here and what Striders thinks happened here.

I'm totally okay with the idea of sec selling or giving prisoners to the research departments for experiments, not to random crewmembers to do whatever they want with them.

Random experimentation on corporate criminals is based. Slavery is cringe.

Do I think that means the complaint should be successful or that further action needs to be taken? No, I think telling the guy off is fine if he's relatively new.

E: Also the complaint is stupid and Typhnox is being even stupider.

As a frequent prisoner player, I'd much rather get passed off to a department for extremely flimsy reasons (or otherwise be voluntold to do dangerous/unwise things, like exploring an unchecked gateway) than just get sold to some rando; I've had security and command give me offers like this, but never involving a random assistant. Prisoners are sec's responsibility, after all, so at least IC it'd make sense to get offered benefits, special treatment, parole, etc. by someone with a big hat in exchange for going along with something that's almost certainly going to go badly for me. They have the authority to do that, after all. I think it's a far more interesting solution to people not wanting to check on perma than just ignoring or freeing prisoners outright! I only play on Manuel, however, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

Also, inmates are technically still CentComm's property. They're probably going to get mad if they hear someone's trying to profit off their stuff.

I've been wanting to find a situation to talk about my PR "Prisoners no longer spawn with backpacks" and I guess it makes sense to put it here https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/72892
I made the PR because it makes no sense to give prisoners backpacks. They closed it because removing prisoners backpacks is griefing, so the PR would basically be griefing every prisoner via code.
But is it really griefing to remove prisoners backpacks? They're literally in prison and shouldn't have backpacks where they can store contraband. Being in the prisoner role opens you to some things that would be considered griefing for other roles.

Very conflicted on this one pals. On the one hand this is emergent RP and it seems kind of perfect for a perma prisoner. On the other hand it'd really suck to have an officer pawn you off to a heretic without a chance to retaliate or defend yourself, then get sacced and sit out the round.

But given they were warned, you don't complaint this type of thing, that only incentivizes more "handled"s, sometimes you don't get the outcome you want but ya gotta just grin and bear it.

The thing is they never do the exact same thing.

I once saw a player who was caught with an AI upload, refused to explain why they had it, and insulted the officer who arrested them. They got executed for it. When told that it seemed like a pretty good reason to kill them, they drew the conclusion that if they play security they are free to execute anyone who insults them on the spot.

Good, it's probably better off that way.

I was upset at the time, but I think it's much more funny and valuable to have a golden green pass from Striders to fuck with imprisoned non-antag crew with no limits. I'm gonna just go play security and start strangling people to death in the middle of the Brig if they get a perma sentence from the HoS or Captain for breaking into the Captain's office or something, or selling them off as slaves to the highest bidder after they break into Tech Storage to be used in cruel experiments (Remember, my crime was tax evasion. Literally not even as bad as b and e.). Not how I thought Security was going to work, but this incident has really opened my eyes to the possibilities of what you can do as Security. Feel free to close this, I would much rather ascend to a new higher tier of shitsec than ever before than see some random noted.
Anyone who says or does something like this deserves to immediately be hurled in the sun. It’s so infuriating and it happens all the time. We get it, stripping a ruling of all context and broadly applying it to every possible situation gives you freedom to run around the halls shooting people and it’s not your fault it’s the admin’s. Gold star for your original and creative thought that no one else has ever thought of in the entire history of tgstation. You truly are an innovator.
Wow never would've expected that behavior from this player.
