Off-Duty Security

[babayetu83]

The argument concedes that people would rather be another job than security officer, then ignores it as an issue.

That's a very valid argument.

Also, in response to some other posts in this thread, I've seen a lot more sec players recently, (5/5 secoffcs, a HoS and a detective in multiple rounds!) which is super cool and hopefully means we're slowly wandering down the right track to making sec play more attractive and fun.

But I also wanted to add, to people saying security needs more leeway in dealing with antagonists and other players, I'm pretty sure they have that leeway these days. I honestly can't remember the last time I saw a sec team member get yelled at for their conduct unless it was very clearly just greifing.

If what's keeping you from playing is fear of the admin staff, I don't think you need to be worrying about that any more! The most that happens is an admin will ask to hear what evidence you made your decision with, if you've got some, that's usually enough grounds to validate your actions.

my issue is more admins abscond with bad people when that is security's job

i think it would be more fun if it had more of an arr pee element to it where griffers/people who break the rules excessively to warrant being banned had an apb on them on grounds of high treason and with security being tasked to take them in dead or alive (and then they get banned)
