I have actually seen several recent instances of the AI or borgs getting a new law uploaded, faithfully complying with it, and being treated like griefers by the crew. I am going to remind you all to in all cases please please PLEASE start with the good-faith assumption that the player in question is acting according to the rules. If the AI or Cyborgs are being annoying or acting unusual, it is much more helpful to assume that their laws have been overwritten and start from there than it is to assume that they're breaking the rules.
Don't kill cyborgs or the AI because they're being annoying or disobedient. Convince a head to reset the laws (or break in and do it yourself) before resorting to violence. It is OK to adminhelp if you aren't sure, but remember that we can't tell you what's going on during the round so you won't actually get an answer beyond "we're looking into it."
Similarly, I see a lot of people treating an AI with nonstandard laws as though the player running it is shitty. That sucks, and makes things less fun for everyone. If an AI has a law requiring it to bolt all doors and turn all lights off, it's not a bad AI, it's an AI dealing with a bad law. Please be polite and consider the fact that if the AI didn't follow that law, the player would be in trouble!
note: this more broadly applies to other players, too. You never know when someone is a traitor or whatever so please assume they're an antag or miscreant before simply deciding that they're a garbage player and loudly saying so.
