Antags and valid words

[CPTANT]

So what actually is the policy on antags saying words that make people valid?

Should they now allow themselves to be killed without fighting back?

Can they kill people trying to get those sweet valids anyway?

It seems there is nothing written down about this policy anyway.

Is this something that ever happens?

Well I'm pretty sure that restriction was to stop people using insta valid words to kill-bait. So if you're an antag, the question would be are you trying to use valid words to bypass restrictions or not.

A wizard or a nukie saying ligger can fight back, because the valid word hasn't altered anything.

Actually I have more to add in that we had this discussion in admin channels when the valid words thing was introduced, I think we just decided it was fine for them to do whatever and not in any way different than an antag painting a target on their back in any other way.

On LRP, this does not matter.
On MRP, this would be equatable to murderbone since you're effectively baiting people to valid you.
