Plasma flooding blobs should be treated the same as using explosives

[Metek]

Plasma flooding a blob is a maneuver so ill-advised and with such a high risk of killing literally the entire crew that it should be treated the same as using explosives that inflict collateral damage. Which is to say, a bannable offense for non-antagonists if it goes badly for them.

Hi there,

We believe that this sort of thing already should be handled as per bombing. Given the situation is fighting a blob some situations may make more sense reasonably in context than in other situations ; in that a blob is likely to functionally trash that part of the station anyway in most cases, however collateral damage is always something non antagonists have to keep in mind. Excess damage to the station beyond what the blob has or would likely cause, or undermining the team's ability to engage sufficiently, and of course death of team mates, should all be actionable, with respect to player's record of similar events and the details of the context.

As such we believe this is already covered by policy and will not be making any changes here at this time.

Thanks
