When someone bombs the station and we're actively repairing the damage/rebuilding the department if need be, and the shuttle is still called.

Multiple bombings = yeah sure, let's peace the fuck out.
Medbay got bombed once (and cloning/cryo wasn't even damaged badly) = why are we leaving?

Honestly legit clinical kleptomania is pretty annoying. They should be stealing random stupid shit because of the compulsions, not just valuable things.

As a further thought if I were playing sec these days i would brig the fuck out of a thief for extra time for trying to get off for being a klepto.

I always make big letters the way of speaking as AI, because it seems a lot of the time people miss what I say

You can always ask the AI turn off big text

Mickyan · Post by **Mickyan** » Sat Mar 23, 2019 11:07 pm #485907

I can't even remember the last time I got angry from getting killed except this one time in medbay someone stunned me and dragged me in the crematorium, which was bolted open, then I realized he had been camping the place and killed at least half a dozen people in the exact same way

I felt such second-hand shame for how absolutely lame it was that whenever I'm sad and for the rest of my life I will look back at that moment and take solace in the fact that at least I am not as outrageously lame as someone that would do something like that

Worst thing about this is that it could be solved by like two seconds of communication, “Hey, is there a vaccine yet?”. Some people just play like its a single player game though.

Doctors who don't open the door to medbay when you ask.
Doctors who, after seeing you hack in because you're dying and he didn't open the door, kick you out.
Doctors who put you in cryo for rad damage with fully upgraded sleepers.
Doctors who see you in crit on the floor of medbay and just ignore you.

When the doctor absolutely insists on defibbing and losing you again and again, giving you new limbs with surgery and otherwise fixing your broken, bloodless body in a process that takes half an hour, when cloning is right here. Seriously, did I miss somehing? Is there a practical reason for it?

Because the medical system is so shitty that doctors have to make their own fun. It is more fun and challenging to actually try to save someone than to let them die and then clone them.

When you are dead you accept that you are out of the round but for the grace of another player. Putting caveats on the player who is even bothering not to chuck your corpse into the morgue and forget it is frankly a tad spoiled.

If you dont want people to do what they want with your corpse, try harder not to die.

You're a tad spoiled if you think you're giving someone a gift in helping them as a doctor

as AI i just roundstart set medbay, medbay storage and cloner to emergency access because people will break in anyway and with all the ssethies and bagel shitters overflowing into terry 90% of medbay is incompetent anyway

MercuryArrow · Tue Apr 02, 2019 2:53 pm

When people break in or access the gibber to gib a bunch of bodies that are not suicides, offer no explanation when you ask what the heck they think they're doing, and then cry CHEF TATOR when you rightfully sleeper hold them and throw them out into the bar common area.

ShrimpMantis · Wed Apr 03, 2019 11:43 am

When youre a team antag and one guy does all the work and youre left with nothing to do because he's just that competent.

When some incompetent shithead does, says, and helps with nothing and tries blames his team for his downfall because he couldn't be assed to come up with a plan that didn't have any many holes as his corpse.

One of my hardest pet peeves is when i say to someone that is obviously 'bout to get screwed if they dare attack me: "Leave me alone and i'll leave you alone", and then a minutes or so after you've released them from your cuffs they just immidieatly try to attack you.

Like... Bro.... That's super cringe to do.

I wish it was ok to just murder them over this since the only way they'll learn is through dying. Showing mercy just means they keep coming back to bite you in the ass.
