==Lethal Force / Executions==

*If something poses a constant threat, you are free to use lethal force. This includes dangerous nonhuman creatures, changelings, nuclear operatives, cultists, and wizards.

* If hulks are smashing shit, you are free to use lethal force on them. ''If someone's using their stun immunity to go around smashing stuff for no reason you are allowed to kill them - "no reason" being the keywords. Don't kill hulks that are breaking stuff for good reasons (like when the rogue as shit AI is flooding plasma)''

*If someone is shooting at you with lethal weaponry you are free to respond in kind.

*Once you have someone stunned and cuffed, there is usually no excuse to not take them to the brig/permabrig if they aren't one of the above-listed threats. Beating a common criminal, who is already down and unable to fight back, to death is shit. ''Some circumstances may change this. Don't let your guard down.''

*Executions are to be authorized by the Captain or acting Captain, if available. If '''neither''' is available, it is up to the HoS or acting HoS. If security is in agreement that the Captain is unfit for command, they may defer to the HoS. ''Whoever authorizes an execution will ultimately be held responsible by admins.''

*When considering whether or not to execute someone, consider their crimes; did they murder people with an e-bow, or did they just emag 1-2 doors? It's perfectly reasonable to execute someone for the former. Yes, you could execute someone for emagging as well, but consider sticking them with a lethal chemical implant or even sending them to be borged. Neutralizing a threat posed by an antagonist is reasonable, but removing that player from the round is dishonourable.

*In instances where nonlethal force is not an option or not a good idea, e.g. someone in space breaking into the Armory, firing lasers at them through the windows isn't going to get you in trouble.

*Revolution is a special case for execution authorization, considering everyone is swarming you at once, so use your best judgment. Don't forget your [[Security_items#Mindshield_Implant|Mindshield Implants]]!

*See the [[Rules]] section for more details.
