Give Porta-Gene another chance?

[Paineframe]

TBH, I feel like at least 50% of the problems with the last Porta-Gene test run was less geneticists being shit and more the crew having a semi-sanctioned hate boner for Genetics. If you (as I tried several times) set up the Porta-Gene somewhere public and invited people to step right up and get some mutant powers, people would steal the Porta-Gene and crush it, because they knew the Admins would look the other way.

Genetics was super overpowered and broken at the time, and the geneticists were absurdly irresponsible about it, so people had it out for the geneticists because destroying every genetics machine was the only way to prevent the station from being overrun by invisible screaming radioactive monkey corpses teleporting randomly around the station.

Even after most of the issues with the genetics update had been worked out, though, geneticists were still shit with the Portagene.
