Adminhelping about cell times or false arrests is generally "IC issue," but retaliating violently will get you banned. If you retaliate non violently they'll "escalate" to murdering you or permabrigging you. They're allowed to break into anywhere they want, take what they want, etc. Nobody IC will care because everyone knows they can't be antagonists.
Is there an appropriate response other than rolling over and dying/letting the guy mess with your round?
And no this isn't just about that recent ban appeal, this has been something that's been bothering me for a while. We have a class of player who is more or less rules free yet it's bannable to retaliate or protect yourself.
Hold sec accountable and force them to observe space law. If they don't, they get secbanned. Make setting people to "wanted" REQUIRE typing in a reason, and make it log. Do not allow sec to have an un-wanted person detained for more than one minute. Detention counts from the moment of arrest (?). Unless the items are explicitly stated to be contraband in the space law, they are not to be taken. Taking them is grounds for sec ban. Losing prisoner's shit is grounds for sec ban.
So:
X broke into janitor's, stole soap, and killed a man, officer Y stumbles upon X, arrests them, throws them into brig, warden is obliged to release them after a minute because no wanted status/reason are given, if they don't, they get secbanned.
I don't see any other solutions because once you're cuffed chances are you can't do anything to remedy the situation until sec lets you go by their own decision. You only have verbal means of influencing sec, and they're not likely to listen. You can try to exact revenge later, but that'll just cause more salt.
So basically, clear rules for sec, sec bans if they don't follow those rules.
