Oh and to touch on the actual problems xenos seem to have:
Xenos frequently get stomped out too early, and the queen has very little to do for most of the game because of her lack of speed.
So to remedy this: I have two things I'd like to try out (whenever I get off my lazy ass and do them)

Re: Robustin Suicide Watch - A way forward on the Engineerin
Well, thread was a wild ride. I just want to put my own idea in on the whole engineering incentives. Why not give them expensive, complex machines that benefit everyone in some way? i.e, station wide bonuses, or something anyone can come and pick up. It could tie in with atmos too, some power hog ...

Hi. Borg here.

Re: Is there a reason to keep "Lings have killed someone" fl
My various cents.
I think this policy only encourages valid hunting. It doesn't give a changeling any ability whatsoever to even work with the AI. Under asimov, the AI would still have to kill the changeling if ordered. But under other lawsets, this will not always be the case.
It wouldn't allow ...

Vinyl has stretched the laws before as AI when I was captain after receiving orders he didn't want to follow. In the case I'm describing, science wanted to create a new AI and as captain I green-lighted it. During Vinyl's construction within the AI's core the original AI proved nervous about the ...

Pandarsenic. The policy does say that, but why should i automatically valid them because of what the policy says? I want to give them equal chance because they're still a player, it's unfair to just kill them because they're an antag, even when acting peaceful (Never commit an evil act)

Well, i never intended to obstruct the captain in what he was doing, as long as he did not commit evil.
I treat antags as anyone else when they commit evil. If they punch someone, they get brigged for assault. If they get assaulted, the attacker gets brigged. They get punished according to their ...

From my perspective:

My 2 cents after reading a page of the thread
