Hey hey hey it's me the berry here with the most important question this channel will ever receive
When is it appropriate to escalate a non-violent conflict into a violent one?
Examples:
Assistant broke into cap's office, stole an item, refuses to drop it and leave.
An atmos technician walks into atmos to find someone in a gas mask with no ID in atmos.
A security officer is attempting to unjustifiably arrest a bartender for creating moonshine.
A clown hops into botany and uses a spade to remove every single plant.
Assume that the killing party makes an attempt to get the killed party to medical. Both parties have no way of knowing if the other is an antag or not, and assume that in all cases there are no non-lethal alternatives. Assume as well that none of these people have violated any other rules (besides perhaps "don't be a dick", fuck you clown who removed my corn!)
All of these are situations that I have personally encountered in my time playing in the last two weeks and for each one I've seen people who believe that the case was either completely against the rules or was completely safe under the current rules.
The hope is that we can find some kind of generalized rule qualifying when it is appropriate to escalate conflict IC.
