And I can't understand why people keep wanting to tell geneticists what mutations to put into the booth. Not doing crime with them is the responsibility of the people with the mutation. Everyone has a right to the genes within their own genome.
Much less Security taking action against geneticists for putting things like polymorph or biomass manipulation into the booth. Really?
Who would fault genetics researchers for giving people the ability to turn into liquid, genetics research is literally their job.
I could maybe understand it if it were something like the radioactive mutation, but this is just ridiculous.
While I don't agree with Kelpo's solution as I think the mutations are a problem and not the gene booth I'll explain why biomass is so bad because it seems like you haven't experienced the frustration and annoyance caused by it. Biomass manipulation is an ability, because of this it has no visual signs that someone has it until they use it. It pretty much gives you AA+ on a not too bad cooldown and can only be cured with mutadone. Now picture this: a player is griefing/an antag and got the biomass manipulation gene. Sec cannot tell that they have it and thus when they're getting processed the person escapes with the push of one button and now security has to go on a wild chase across the station and forcefeed them mutadone (good luck) or shoot them with a mutadone dart and unless you auth the armoury you have a max of 4 of those.
