Tasers are bad. Stun bullets too.

Clarks Wrote:Hi, I opened that thread, and it was nothing about removing lethal eguns for stun.

Four eguns that hold 8+ shots and switch from stun to laser were too fat a target for any traitor to steal, and too good a weapon for security to use against vampires/wizards/changelings.
I wanted them to be replaced with something less coveted, I was not going for one single idea about how.

And again, like Dauntasa and I said, having lethal bullets should encourage cops to restrain themselves, rather than just shooting everyone with the excuse that tasers don't kill.

That's all fine and dandy that you made that thread, but I'm not pointing the finger at you. Yet.

I don't understand where you're coming from at all, I think actually you're completely deluded that security will "restrain" themselves now that they have lethal bullets, and I'd like you to show me evidence that this is so.
This is your bread-and-butter sec officer we're talking about here, not a HoS who knows what the meaning of restrain is. The fact of the matter is that traitors will be shot, with revolver bullets. I can't fathom WHEN this should EVEN be an option, other than for abominations, vampires, and operatives. In-fact drugged users used to be on that list but now that's less of an option with the dart rifle. THIS IS THE WAY WE SHOULD'VE BEEN GOING
Do you know how loathed a detective is when he's using lethal? Or is your agenda to make security even more loathed?

Can you tell me what do you do after you shot the traitor to death? You can leave him if you're an asshole, or you can clone him, if you have access. The cloning process takes 5 minutes or more (#WOAH, THATS LONGER THAN A BRIG TIME) and their traitor items are pilfered, unless you want to be a really nice/hypocrite/waste of security time and wait at genetics and give him back his items after you murdered him, if he's not gone braindead.

The issue was with tasers being boring, stun-u-lose, which I whole heartily agree. It seems your issue is what happens AFTER they are captured, i.e: when they are brigged. If you have a complaint about that, go make another thread about how to fix it, and I'll put my worst and boring 2c, as always.
If you think that the revolvers are a good addition, giving sec officers lethal option straight off the bat (and giving traitors with security access, access to it too) when we were making strides away from this, then I'm going to tell you that you haven't an iota of what your talking about.
