I don't like off-station crimes and I can't describe why

I'll be honest and say I do not enjoy Jailbird as a trait.

Robust Jones exits Cryo, heads to medical, alarms are triggered. Why? According to the jailbird trait, they firebombed the captain and murdered someone unspecified.

If I had set these notes myself for a crew member mid shift, those two crimes would probably be worth execution at the worst and exile at best. Now we all know that Robust Jones didn't actually do that in the round. Is it worth killing, brigging, or exiling someone for that? No, not at all. But in roleplay and in character, it is the same to me.

I don't see there being fun in me grabbing people who have arrest records not set by players in round and shoving them in the brig.

I agree, some of the crimes are actually insane. Maybe we can remove like the murders, assaults, etc and keep it to something lighter?

I think it's an okay trait but I do agree that just brushing it off is kinda....meh. I know I've tried to RP with jailbirds in the past but I feel like some of it is the mentality of dealing with it in the first place.
