Define vigilante behavior.
Alot of people think that some guy going up to a traitor and splashing him with sarin because he's killing literally everything he sees is vigilante behavior. That's not vigilantism. That's retribution, and by extension; self defense.
Vigilante behavior is people who at round start have an idea in their head that the man twirling his traitor moustache is "valid" and will break into sec just to get a taser to kill him. Or because they noticed a traitor put something into their bag that's syndicate, yep valid salad. These are the same assholes who take traitors who are cuffed and being dragged by security just so they can space them.
We should never be encouraging any form of vigilante behavior. We should be encouraging people to join security, or if they have a traitor down, encourage them to hand it over to security. Because processing, allow the traitor to have their plan B when they get arrested, interrogation done properly is far more fun than just spacing the dude.
I am irked that this thread needs to exist.
