The hygiene meter kind of stinks

[JOELED]

I don't think hygiene does well for getting people out of their departments when it comes down to it. People who are willing to leave departments for motives already do so for the other two, and generally find other reasons to leave their department throughout a 90 minute round regardless. If they already don't want to be interrupted, hygiene doesn't do it -- they either ignore it, or find a less disruptive way to handle it (in-department showers like many departments have, or pools of water).

Regardless, I feel like now, if ever, is a great time for this conversation to be revisited. Nightshade is bringing in tons of new players, and from frequenting the discord and servers I'm seeing negative feelings/frustration from players on there who get to experience goon RP without the hygiene motive before branching out to try our actual goon RP servers and finding it an obtrusive and irritating mechanic they much prefer to play RP without. Now if only the folks in there had forum accounts it would be easier to hear their opinions here too lol
