Also you are lying about taking sufocation damage... the chem I injected you with is as follows...

From the wiki:

Perfluorodecalin

Heals 25 OXY damage, causes LOSEBREATH. You can't talk, but it prevents any suffocation damage from racking up despite that. 33% chance of healing 1 BRUTE and 1 BURN.

Fantastic for crime because it silences people. Also fantastic for pretty much negating all the accumulative damage from being in critical, will give you a really wide window of time to deal with other health problems. In theory you could stay in flatline for quite awhile with this stuff handling tissue oxygenation, but you might need mannitol too. Can make spacewalking without internals possible. Somewhat addictive.

now I do note that it says fantastic for crime, but you know what else is? Just about anything else I could have dumped on you as a followup when i didn't fight back against your toolboxing.

Let's add that into the equation, shall we? So when you're attacked/killed most of the time you receive no reply from admins. Generally this means they're antags. Now would you:

A: A-help saying "Hey, this guy's chasing after me and injecting me with shit" and risk death while typing, since they could In fact be antags and would kill you In a heartbeat and your A-helping efforts would be for nothing.
B: Keep running, knowing you have the advantage of having less-lag/less-buggy beyond. But eventually be stopped by some form of concealed weapon/chemical/slip on water.
C: Screw It.. If I'm going to die I'm sure as hell getting some kicks and punches In. And punch him In the hopes you can get lucky enough to knock him out.

If you chose C then what do you do:

1: Stop and A-help about this person. Risk them waking up and enacting revenge, even if they are an antag or not they will definitely have an excuse to kill you now. Such is the goon way.
2: Pick up Air-tank and keep hitting him over the head. Then when you're fairly confident that you've drained most of his stamina you take his ID and walk out of there.
3: Pick up Air-tank, Acid, and just go ape shit on him and have no idea what to do. Then when you do realize what to do It's too late and an admin has warped you into the dark-zone from no return. (Well I returned but that was a freak accident.)


I meant to pick option 2 but, as I said, I panicked. And Normally I return with patches when I get into a fight with someone. Don't want then A-helping about my dickery.

The suffocation damage I didn't have any idea how It came to be. I assume It was loose-breath from the injection. And while beating you I saw I was fully healed, which I found odd (it had left my bloodstream). By then I stopped beating you and started stripping your id, or trying to. Had airtank in my hand. (Also I never knew you could emag hypospray.. that's useful actually.) You could have let me out. Or said something. Or just not stalk me around the room with a hypospray. We both know the universal sign for "Back off" Is hitting someone with a random object found on the ground. Now that I hear your side I'm sorry for panicking and beating you for what felt like a million clicks before I could think of what to do (I don't act well in unplanned for situations) you really should have just let me out.. All the signs of an antag.. Albeit one that's lagging bad.
