Bottom post of the previous page:
The admin divergence on bomb policy at this point is entering "gross negligence" levels. Pretty much every admin has a different opinion on when bombs are bannable. Not just mild difference either, like fundamentally difference understandings of our policy.First ban was for failing to bomb a blob core, which had already been bombed by another player (i.e. it was a giant space crater with a blob in it), after I yelled for everyone to GTFO for around two minutes. Turns out coders had secretely made blob cores immune to bombs, wew. https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=4959
It was quickly repealed but now I'm banned again for actually successfully bombing a hostile LICH WIZARD because it claimed too many bystanders and the wizard hadn't killed enough people to justify a bomb.
I'm just floored by this shit. Bombing a wizard is already considered pretty standard fare, bombing a LICH is widely understood to be the ONLY way to prevent the immortal jackass from doing whatever he wants. Good liches will ensure their cooldown is always ready when electing to fight the crew, skellies have a slew of benefits that make them immune to other anti-wiz tactics.
I'm just baffled as to what our policy is at this point. Am I supposed to be a psychic bomber who knows the antag's precise bodycount, spell selection, and ultimate goals before detonating? Why the fuck do we even have shit like liches if you're going to ban people for bombing them before they've reached a sufficient kill count? Was I supposed to be able to tell which people had been killed by the wizard versus the slaughter demon?
This utter lack of policy on the station's most potent weapon is really, really inexcusable. Especially after I made a thread months ago trying to ask the same questions and never getting a decisive answer.
