Miscreants....
They exist. Nobody knows why. They serve absolutely no purpose, prevent you from getting actual job objectives (which is unfun if you are hunting for a medal on a single slot job), and genuinly feel outdated and wrong considering how there are objectives that encourages you to actually do antagonistic things:
"Destroy the Captain's prized bonsai tree."
"Forge evidence and bribe people into testifying that an entire department is involved in the illegal drug trade with the goal of convincing security to raid that department."
"Try to block off access to something under the pretense that it's too dangerous."
The only thing miscreant does is tricking new players into self-antagging, as being a miscreant gives you no additionnal rights to do more severe mischief, but implies you do through the weirdness of objectives.
They were introduced as something that should incite people to create interesting / fun situations, but it just fails its purpose, as you can be a miscreant that does not mischeif, and you can mischief without being a miscreant.
