[tehsteveo] Zerger - Accidential monkey apocalypse

Byond account and character name: Zerger (Artur Unk)

Banning admin: tehsteveo

Ban type (What are you banned from?): Permaban (Bagil)

Ban reason and length: Created 2000 monkey cubes and activated them, lagging the server. UPDATE: The monkeys then broke the MC and the server had to be restarted. Permaban

Time ban was placed (including time zone): 2018-01-17 12:49:13

Server you were playing when banned: Bagil

Your side of the story: start round as botanist -> realize, that biogenerator can produce monkey cubes -> decide to make some for fun -> got carried away in process -> "The monkey cube expandsx2000" -> Recive ban right before server crashed.

Why you think you should be unbanned: right now i can understand that it was bad idea to spawn lots of mobs, cause even basic monkey AI can crash server in such numbers. So if you decide to unban me i can guarntee that i wont abuse any mechanics to cause lags/crash sever/kill station crew in one minute. But if i will, you can always ban me again.

Yeah uh this crash shouldn't of even occurred, we added a max monkey cap awhile ago just in case someone was conducting science

I can imagine attempting to spawn upto 2K monkeys instantly even with a cap would be problematic.

You very clearly don't understand how a cap works do you

Upto 2k meaning to whatever the cap goes to if it's under 2k. even if the cap is like 100 that's still ~100 monkeys getting spawned instantly along with whatever else is going on with the round.

It doesn't really matter though because spamming is still against the rules.

I personally don't have an issue with an unban but Tehs should prob give their 2cents first :3

actually believe it or not you can spawn 100 things at once with no lag the lag only starts when a action occurs like monkey lynch mobs or killing them all with shields/ship gibs
