I was going to post this in Nerdy's ban thread, as I think the ban was completely unjustified, but I didn't want to shit it up. I think a discussion on rampages is necessary, because I have seen lots of conflict regarding it, especially in dead chat. Victims of rampages often say "rampagers are boring" or even worse, "you should be banned from antag role". They cite the culture of goon, and this is where I begin to question things. Is the culture of goon anti-rampage, and is that a good thing?
I ask because the other day I was openly murdered on the shuttle, and more than 7 people stood by and watched. Ever wonder why rampagers are so successful? You have only yourselves to blame. People are too afraid to kill, too afraid to take action. They think "if I leave the antag alone, he will let me live", and I think this sums up the current culture more than anything.
As such, I think more people should rampage. Rampage until people wake up and start picking up fire extinguishers. Maybe they'll start listening to the radio as well! To sum it up, embrace rampagers by fucking killing them. This should be the culture.
Furthermore, between an incompetent traitor, a friendly wizard, or an evil rampager, I will take the rampager every time. They are actually fun if you try to fight back. Perhaps some of you could give it a shot!
I apologize if I come across as a bit catty in this post, but holy shit guys, banning people for rampaging is terrible, and the current passive culture we are harboring is terrible, too.
