Some jobs have access to your workspace. When I'm on it seems like people breaking into engineering are letting the singu loose. The only other things in there can be found elsewhere, usually by asking for them. Insulated gloves can be requested from QM. It's easier to get plasma canisters from science. Tools are laying around everywhere on Metastation.

Incase anyone else noticed, we have been getting a influx of noobs. These are coming from 420chan and /vg/ because someone posted our IP there. So far it seems ok.

Doesn't seem to stop people. Especially botanists, since you can grow weed if you hack the vending machine. It's a shame, because if you asked Angelo (My engineer guy) to hack the plant vendor to get weed seeds, he'd totally do it for you.

You do get a security guard to watch your back in engineering.

Meh, I'm not going to go into a rabid xenophobia frenzy unless and until they start acting like shitlords. Nothing bad happened when /tg/ players came over to us for a while. Hell, given that our IP is openly posted on the thread, it isn't exactly difficult to find us. Oh, and three day weekend, so I'm going to kill some time.

Oh, and get yer arses on board.

A non-existent one, the majority of the time. Sec dudes are rarer then Engi dudes.

Alternatively, there's a sec guy being a colossal dick. There never seems to be a security player who both:
a) Is competent
b) Doesn't need to be somewhere else

[LordSlowpoke]

contrary to popular opinion, bay12 seems to be not full of masochists or power abusers

hence people don't really play sec

if you're willing to go on the "sec isn't masochism" tangent, you have probably already lost the argument but surprise me

[Iceblaster]

...What about Batonamir...

Aaaand on masochism and power abuser... Reason I'm not admin right there.

Being a security guard is really hard, because I like playing one. It's like the worst combination of extreme duty and absolutely no room for fuck-ups. You have no idea what's going on, you have to judge whether or not the clown detonating a bomb in engineering is more worthy of arrest then the engineer beating the botanist to death for trying to break into engineering, and no-one really likes you. However, it's still fun for me because I'm a masochist.

Security is a lose-lose situation. If you're too lenient, the station will fall apart. If you're too strict, people will scream "SHITCURITY" and you'll be lynched. Not counting the mental fatigue of constantly being called "shitcurity" for just doing your job.

It's like being the police officer who has to stop illegal fireworks displays on the 4th of July. No-one likes you even though you're just doing your job and trying to stop people's fingers from being blown off.

[BigD145]

If you are security do not antagonize people. The crew outnumbers you and they make friends with each other more often than you. Stunprods are easy to make and your taser has limited shots. You could also piss off heads which have access to guns.

[Flying Dice]

Gotta love that proportionate retribution. Meh, not worth ahelping, though, it's a piddly mid-day round with hardly anyone on board, death isn't that big of a deal.

Ooooor, maybe, just maybe, you could try to treat the prisoners like they are crewmembers who did something illegal, but are still human beings. And not bucklecuff then go away to enjoy your coffee and donuts in the bar but stay a while and chat with the prisoners so that they wouldn't have to bore two minutes away.
