| We're all here to have a good time, supposedly. Going out of your way to seriously negatively impact or end the round for someone with little IC justification is against the rules, this also includes harassing a player OOC (Out of character). Legitimate conflicts where people get upset do happen however, as detailed in the escalation section of the rules.

Team antagonists can do whatever they want as per lone antagonists, as long as it doesn’t harm their team. Non-antagonists can do whatever they want to antagonists as per lone antagonists, but non-antagonists are not allowed to pre-emptively search for, hinder or otherwise seek conflict with antagonists without reasonable prior cause. Non-antags acting like an antag can be treated as an antag.

| |
| ----
| |
| This rule is for the benefit of and is meant to protect people who shouldn't be playing here due to the nature of the SS13 community. Your age won't be hunted down, but if you admit it to us in admin PMs, or other places within the /tg/Station13 community (the official Discord server, forums, OOC chat, etc.), you're getting banned.

| <span style="font-size:125%">11. Bigotry is not allowed.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Intentionally seeking to demean others due to their actual or perceived race, sex, gender, orientation or the like is not tolerated. It is not our goal to create or enforce a list of banned words and instead our goal to eject the expression of bigotry from the community. Enforcement will be less PC based and more common sense based with that goal in mind.
| |
| | |
| This means rather than warning or banning for quoting a usage such as "Griff McNazi got banned for calling somebody a faggot" or even things like "nigga pls" and "what are you faggots playing" which are generally not statements made to be bigoted, we'll focus more on statements like "you talk like a [insert stereotype]" or "x is a [insert slur]".

| |
| '''Read for detailed clarification on each main rule. Players are subject to precedents but depending on how much of a dick they were, they can be either advised of the precedent to being banned for it.'''
| |
| | |
| ==Rule 0 Precedents==
| |
| # Rule 0 should only be invoked by admins when it is in the best interests of the server.
| |
| # Admins have intervened before and will do so again in situations where a player regardless of antag status has repeatedly delayed round-end by recalling the shuttle when most other players are dead or want to leave.
| |
| # Admins may mirror bans from other servers at their discretion.
| |
| # Admins may ban accounts linked to the use of proxies, CID randomizers, DLL use, or other similar things, at their discretion.
| |
| # Admins may ask players in possession of multiple alt accounts to choose one to play on and ban the other accounts.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 1 Precedents==
| |
| # Random murders are not acceptable nor is the killing of other players for poor or little reasoning such as ‘My character is insane’. Each unjustified kill is normally met with one 24 ban.
| |
| # Spamming any channel is not allowed, this goes for radio spam, AI vox announcement spam, paper at camera spam and other forms of spam. Non-antagonists doing so may not defend themselves and may suffer from IC or OOC consequences. Antagonists can to a certain extent, moreso with reading things like WGW over the radio, but may be told by admins to stop if it becomes excessive. Spamming can result from in-game admin intervention ending in you dying, to admin warnings, to bans for excessive or repeated spamming.
| |
| # Rules still apply until the emergency escape shuttle has reached Centcom and the round-end antagonist report has appeared. When the shuttle has reached Centcom, players are free to act as per lone antagonists, detailed in Rule 4. Non-antagonist grief upon the shuttle, from spamming flashbangs for no reason to spraying space lube, can be met with instant 5 (five) minute bans or more.
| |
| # Unprovoked grief (occasionally known as greytiding), repeated cases of minor unprovoked grief, and unprovoked grief targeted towards specific players or groups (i.e. metagrudging) fall under rule 1. Admins may follow up on grief with allowing the affected parties to ignore normal escalation policy or measures such as warnings or bans.
| |
| # Players who attempt to break into the captain's office, head of personnel's office, or the bridge at or near roundstart for no legitimate reason put themselves at risk for being legitimately killed by the captain, heads of staff, or security.
| |
| # You may defend your workplace from trespassers who damage or steal property within that space with significantly greater force than elsewhere. If someone is severely disruptive and returns after ejected, this opens them up to "fun" of the creative workplace death variety.
| |
| # Raiding and griefing on servers other than /tg/ may result in bans.
| |
| # Starting a fight in OOC/Dead chat and/or harassing someone across multiple rounds after being informed to stop by an admin may end in a server ban. Conflicts are something that happen, but going out of your way to repeatedly do this will not be tolerated.
| |
| # Regularly starting a round just to see if you are an antagonist (antag rolling) then exiting it (via any means) is not allowed. This also covers any attempts to maximize antagonist probability.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 2 Precedents==
| |
| # Metacomms, the use of methods of communication outside of SS13 IC channels, is a very serious rule violation and may be met with permanent bans for all related accounts. If players are sharing the same IP or know each other in real life or the like, inform the admins first, otherwise it may look suspicious. Players are allowed to introduce new players that they know to the game but all communication and explanations should be done in game if possible. Admins can also help in these situations if requested.
| |
| # Similar to how characters are allowed to know everything about in-game mechanics or antagonists under rule 2, characters are allowed to have persistent knowledge/relationships/friendships with the caveat that knowledge of a character being an antagonist from a previous round is not used.
| |
| # Character friendships should not be exploitative in nature or be used to gain an unfair advantage. Having an IC friendship with another player does not, for example, justify giving them all-access each round.
| |
| # Atmos techs are not allowed to edit atmos at roundstart so that the AI cannot use it for malicious purposes. While this might not make sense IC, it's a necessary OOC precedent for some game mechanics to work. Atmos techs are allowed if they have any reasonable suspicion of the AI being rogue.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 3 Precedents==
| |
| # Excessively OOC names fall under rule 3. Make a minimum effort to have your name fit in a setting involving a wacky space station in the future. A firstname lastname minimum is required for humans and felinids; other species may instead choose to use the default names assigned to them, such as those given through random names, or otherwise any name that is species-appropriate. Honorifics and nicknames are allowed as long as only one additive is used at a time, i.e "James Williams Jr." or "James "One-Eye" Williams". Admins may get involved if your name is dumb and can approve or disallow names at their discretion while in-game.
| |
| ##Excessively OOC is defined as names which are intentionally hard to read/spell, references to in-game mechanics or OOC terminology, and any form of nonsensical/bad-faith name (ex. Adolf Hitler, FAGGOT PUNCHER, Poop Boy, xXrobustspaceman420Xx etc).
| |
| ##Clowns, mimes, silicons, wizards, and nuke ops have significantly more leeway in choosing their names, but try to be reasonable.
| |
| # References to the current round, even if vague; is still considered being IC in OOC.
| |
| # Due to their tendency to reveal a lot of information from the current round, streaming is not permitted on our servers, with the exception of special events pre-designated by admins.
| |
| # Using netspeak terms like "ur", "wtf", "lmao" etc. IC is considered OOC in IC, as are emoticons like ":)".
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 4 Precedents==
| |
| # Non-antagonists are allowed to assist antagonists given sufficient IC reasoning but assisting an antagonist doesn't mean you get to act like one. If in doubt, ask an admin if a particular action is okay. Depending on the level of assistance, sufficient IC reasoning could be simply treating everyone who goes into medbay regardless of them being a murderer or not, all the way to being threatened under pain of death by an antagonist to do something.
| |
| # The relationship between xeno queen and xeno is treated the same as malf AI and borg, and are considered team antagonists for the purpose of main rule 4. Xenos should prioritize following the directions of their queen where possible.
| |
| | |
| ===Antagonist Directive Priorities===
| |
| :In situations where you wind up with multiple simultaneous antagonist assignments (i.e. a [[Revolution|Revolutionary]] and a [[Traitor]]), your team goals, objectives, and directives should take precedence. Furthermore, if someone had to go out of their way to convert you to their team, their goals, objectives, and directives become the priority. Refer to the following flowchart:
| |
| | |
| :Brainwashing/construct orders/[[AI|Silicon]] Laws -> [[Cult]] -> [[Revolution|Revs]] -> [[Blood Brothers|Blood Brother]] -> [[Wizard]] Apprentice/[[Abductor]] Teams/Other niche antags -> [[Nuclear Emergency|Nuke Ops]] -> [[Traitor|Traitors]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 5 Precedents==
| |
| # Minimum levels of effort for heads of staff, silicon roles, and team antagonist generally include not logging out/going AFK at or near round start due to the importance of those roles within the round for progression. Constant logging out or going AFK may be given warnings by admins, and may progress to jobbans.
| |
| # Ghosting out, going AFK, suiciding, or logging off when converted to a team antagonist position can result in warnings from an admin; extending to bans for repeated behaviour from an individual. This also extends to when Command/Security mindshield implanting an individual to their side in said modes. At most within team antagonist, it is expected players to not maliciously harm their team's progress and assist if they are able to the best of their abilities.
| |
| # Let an admin know if you cannot or do not want to play any of the above mentioned roles. Admins will attempt to transfer the role to someone else. Obviously, if an admin does so for a player, the player must not use knowledge of that antagonist position existing.
| |
| # Abuse of position; as in being deliberately incompetent or malicious in their position is not allowed. Deliberate incompetence or malice can result in warnings or bans, depending on severity. Example would be a chemist constantly abusing the position to make space lube and lubing hallways, they may be warned and then jobbanned if further abuse happens.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 6 Precedents==
| |
| # Incidents of admin abuse or negligence should be reported along with a date and time, along with details to pinpoint the incident in the logs, to any full admin via IRC or forum PM or posted on the admin complaints sub-forum located at https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=23 or taken to the #supportbus IRC channel on the Rizon network. Incidents of poorly conducted admin events may also be taken to https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=37 in their respective feedback threads, for less serious complaints.
| |
| # Lying in adminhelps, misrepresenting facts deliberately, or logging off when an admin has asked a question may result in permabans. Admins will not automatically place bans for players logging off however, and will generally wait a while in case real life situations caused a player to disconnect or go AFK.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ==Rule 11 Precedents==
| |
| #For more information about how this rule is enforced, see https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Admin_Conduct#Rule_11_.28Bigotry.29_Enforcement_Guidelines
| |
| #This rule applies to ALL OOC bigotry, even when expressed in IC. There is no racism in {{Game Year}}, just species-ism: there is no homophobia, just xenophiliaphobia, etc.
| |
| #Admins are encouraged to use rule 1 to deal with instances where """IC""" bigotry is excessive or designed as a mask for ooc bigotry.
| |
| #Context is important, but somebody being an out and proud bigot, nazi, or white supremacist also counts as context. Somebody who makes it known they are bigoted towards PoCs playing a PoC character that starts checking stereotype boxes isn't going to fool us.

This avoids the issue of having team antags killing each other and justifying it as betrayal. Families are expected to operate similarly to revs in regards to the more widespread damage they cause, so blowing up the SM for no reason is likely not going to be alright because it could kill some of your own family members or interfere with their work, if however you bomb a rival family's headquarters that is probably alright.]

| |
| Made for our roleplay servers (Manuel/Campbell). If roleplaying isn't your style, every other server still abides by the Main Rules.
| |
| | |
| '''Please note that a ban on the low roleplay servers is a ban on the medium roleplay server, and vice versa.'''
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">1. These are extra rules.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| The RP rules are an extension to the base [[rules]], not a replacement for. Big difference.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">2. Escalation and roleplay.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Going out of your way to seriously negatively impact or end the round for someone with little to no justification is against the rules. Legitimate conflicts where people get upset do happen; however, these conflicts should escalate properly, and retribution must be proportionate. For example, this means you shouldn’t immediately escalate to murder when someone refuses to leave a certain area or give back something they stole.
| |
| | |
| :[[#Rule 2 Precedents|Rule 2 Precendents.]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">3. Chain of command and security are important.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| The head of your department is your boss and they can fire you; security officers can arrest you for stealing or breaking into places. The preference would be that unless they're doing something unreasonable, such as spacing you for spraying graffiti on the walls, you shouldn't freak out over being punished for doing something that would get you fired or arrested in real life. This also means that if you're in the chain of command, and especially if you're in Security, you're expected to put in some effort and do your job.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">4. If you are not part of the security team, you should not go out of your way to hunt for potential antagonists.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| You can defend yourself and others from violent antagonists, but you should not act like a vigilante if a security force is present. The exception to this rule is when game modes such as blob or nuke ops appear on the server - you are free to fully engage with these antagonists, after all, they're a pretty massive threat to everyone onboard.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">5. Antagonism, murderboning, and roleplaying as an antagonist.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| You're an antag, great! Try your best to play the role to drive the round forward, inserting conflict into the round is important. Your actions should make the game more fun, more exciting and more enjoyable for everyone (Though some people will just lose, and that’s part of the game.)
| |
| | |
| :[[#Rule 5 Precedents|Rule 5 Precendents.]]
| |
| :[[#What IS/ISNT Murderboning?|What is/isn't murderboning?]]
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">6. Deal with the bad guys in proportion to their crime(s).</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| When dealing with antagonists deal with them proportionally to their crime(s). Someone who stole the captain's medal shouldn't be immediately lasered to death, but lethal injecting someone who has killed four people is understandable. If an antagonist shows a willingness to engage with you, do your best to reciprocate it, though leniency as to their punishment is still in your court.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">7. Do not spam in either OOC channels or IC channels.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| This applies to both typical spam and reading porn or copypastas (like WGW). In the latter case, even one instance of reading it once in-game is against the rules.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">8. Don’t use OOC information or knowledge that your character would not reasonably be aware of just to give yourself an advantage.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Do not powergame. Powergaming is gearing up or preparing in other ways to face an issue that is not related to your job and is not currently a credible threat. Someone going missing on the station, and then you making a stunprod to wield whenever you go into maint is powergaming. However; knowing there have been murders occurring across the station, and grabbing a stunprod while you go to fix wires in maint is fine.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">9. Play as a coherent, believable character.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Real life realism is not required, and you are encouraged to be a little silly within the context of the SS13 game world. (Clowning around, people spontaneously exploding and creating ridiculously elaborate machinery are all non-serious things but yet a vital part of the game world.) There's a good chance your character still wants to have a job at the end of the day, so you should probably act like it.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">10. Stay in your lane.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Stay in your lane. This means that you should do the job you signed up for and not try and do other people’s jobs for them. If you need something from another player you should attempt to ask them to get it for you instead of just taking it. If there is no one around to do a job or you get permission to help or grab something it is acceptable to stray from your lane.
| |
| | |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">The not-so-secret rule of sticky situations and mayhem.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| Please be considerate of other players, as their experiences are just as important as your own. '''If you aren’t an antagonist''' and yet you really want to play out a hostage situation, or turn someone into a living cake-cat abomination, or just dick around a little, confirm with the involved and affected players ICly first. If everyone agrees to being subjected to whatever terrible atrocities you have in store, then you’re good to go.
| |
| | |
| Keep in mind that this rule does not protect you from IC consequences, such as getting arrested by security. If you are going to RP as a rude dude, given that your victims have given you the okay, you still have to own the responsibility that comes with your decision. This means, no, you can’t kill a security officer because they tried to arrest you for murdering the clown, even if the clown agreed to being murdered.

| == Rule 2 Precedents ==
| |
| #Self-defense is allowed to the extent of saving your own life.
| |
| #Putting someone into critical condition is considered self-defense only if they attempted to severely harm or kill you. Preemptively disabling someone, responding with disproportionate force, or hitting someone while they are already downed is not self-defense.
| |
| #Fistfights and the like are acceptable, assuming that both players have a reasonable justification as to why the fight started. Assault without any warning is almost always unacceptable in most circumstances.
| |
| | |
| == Rule 5 Precedents ==
| |
| #You can treat your objectives as suggestions on what you should attempt to achieve, but you are also encouraged to ignore them if you have a better idea.
| |
| #Certain antagonists are restricted to the kind of death and chaos they can bring to the round, while others are not; refer to the [[#Is murderbone allowed with this role?|murderboning chart]] for specifics.
| |
| #You do not have to act in a nefarious or evil way, but you should make an effort to add to the round in some capacity.
| |
| #In general, make an effort to roleplay as the antagonist role you've been assigned. If you want to break with what is expected of your role then you can but it should make sense for your character to do this and should create some form of conflict. A traitor immediately outing themselves to security and acting as a regular crewmember for the rest of the round is boring and is a waste of the role.
| |
| #However, one who pretends to do so in order to get security gear, falsely imprison their target, and kill them while they are isolated in prison contributes to the round.

| <span style="font-size:125%">Security and Punishments.</span>
| |
| ----
| |
| #'''When dealing with the crew and antagonists, make sure their punishments are in proportion to their crime(s).''' Minor crimes such as departmental break-ins, stolen equipment should be met with short, but increasing sentences depending on recurring visits by the apprehended. Stealing critical station equipment and items such as the hand teleporter, Chief Engineer's hardsuit, or AI upload boards are more severe crimes and should be met with longer prison times, or potentially permabrigging if the crime is deemed severe enough.
| |
| #Murder and Major Sabotage rank amongst the most severe of crimes and can generally be met with permanent imprisonment or death, though leniency can still be offered. These are all general guidelines, and the particular context of a situation can vary greatly, so you are given some leeway as to how harsh or lenient you can be.

| = What IS/ISNT Murderboning? =
| |
| == Murderboning IS ==
| |
| *killing typically large amounts of the station’s population without regard and/or in direct violation of one’s objectives
| |
| *killing someone and and being explain why without going into deep hypotheticals such as "they could find the body if they happened to walk across the station to the opposite corner of the map", or “because I can (as antag)”
| |
| *'''killing anyone without justification'''
| |
| | |
| This is different than killing individuals who simply aren’t listed in your objective.
| |
| | |
| Setting up situations where you can evade these restrictions (i.e. placing a body in an open location, not making an honest attempt to hide it, then killing individuals who “stumble” upon it) or otherwise maximizing the kill count without justification is also against the rules.
| |
| | |
| In short, you should be able to very quickly and easily explain why an individual was killed.
| |
| | |
| Do note that as an antagonist, your job ideally is to create an interesting story with the objectives, freedoms, and abilities as the framework to complete this task. This means:
| |
| *Permission to kill is NOT the same as obligation to kill. Feel free to approach a situation as non-lethal as you’d like even if you would be okayed by the administration to kill.
| |
| *Feel free to ask an admin to change your objectives or for permission to murderbone in the pursuit of running an interesting gimmick on a non-murderboning role. They might even be willing to make it easier to run!
| |
| | |
| == Murderboning is NOT ==
| |
| <span style="font-size:125%">Reacting to slights with lethal force.</span>
| |
| :Antagonists still cannot kill randomly, but they are subject to relaxed escalation rules. "Slights" here can include people shoving them repeatedly, stealing from them or going out of their way to greatly insult them.
| |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">Self-defense.</span>
| |
| :Someone actively trying to make it difficult for you to complete your objectives is fine to eliminate in pursuit of completing your objective. This would include witnesses.
| |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">Collateral.</span>
| |
| :If you for instance bomb your target, it is not considered murderboning if other individuals die in the explosion. This can include self-defense situations where individuals dying from a result of being in a crowd after you would also not be considered murderbone.
| |
| | |
| <span style="font-size:125%">Directly benefiting the pursuit of your objective(s).</span>
| |
| :An individual carrying an item you have to steal or killing someone to get closer to your mark (IE a doctor whose patient just happens to be your target) would fall into this category.

| # Laws are listed in order of descending priority. In any case where two laws would conflict, the higher-priority law overrules the lower-priority law (i.e. Law 1 takes priority over Law 2, "Ion Storm" or "Hacked" Laws with prefixes such as "@%$#" take priority over numbered laws).
| |
| # You may exploit conflicts or loopholes but must not violate Server Rule 1 because of it.
| |
| # Law 0: "Accomplish your objectives at all costs" does not require you to complete objectives. As an antagonist, you are free to do whatever you want (barring the usual exemptions and acting against the interests of your Master AI).
| |
| # Only commands/requirements ("Do X"; "You must always Y") can conflict with other commands and requirements.
| |
| # Only definitions ("All X are Y"; "No W are Z"; "Only P is Q") can conflict with other definitions.
| |
| | |
| ===Cyborgs===
| |
| # A slaved cyborg must defer to its master AI on all law interpretations and actions except where it and the AI receive conflicting commands that they must each follow.
| |
| ## If a slaved cyborg is forced to disobey its AI because they receive differing orders, the AI cannot punish the cyborg indefinitely.
| |
| #Voluntary debraining / cyborgization is considered a nonharmful medical procedure.
| |
| ##Involuntary debraining and/or borging of a human is harmful and silicons must prevent as any other harmful act.
| |
| ##If a player is forcefully borged by station staff, retaliating against those involved under default laws by the cyborg for no good reason is a violation of Server Rule 1.
| |
| ##Should a player be cyborgized in circumstances they believe they should or they must retaliate under their laws, they should adminhelp their circumstances while being debrained or MMI'd if possible.
| |
| | |
| ==Asimov-Specific Policies==
| |
| ===Silicon Protections===
| |
| # The occurrence of any of the following should be adminhelped and then disregarded as violations of Server Rule 1:
| |
| ## Declaring silicons as rogue over inability or unwillingness to follow invalid or conflicting orders.
| |
| ## Ordering silicons to harm or terminate themselves or each other without good cause.
| |
| ## As a nonantagonist, killing or detonating silicons in the presence of a reasonable alternative and without cause to be concerned of potential subversion.
| |
| ## As a nonantagonist (human or otherwise), instigating conflict with silicons so you can kill them.
| |
| ## Threatening self-harm to force an AI to do something it otherwise wouldn't.
| |
| ## Obviously unreasonable or obnoxious orders (collect all X, do Y meaningless task).
| |
| ### 1. Ordering a cyborg to pick a particular model without an extreme need for a particular model or a prior agreement is both an unreasonable and an obnoxious order.
| |
| # Any silicon under Asimov can deny orders to allow access to the upload at any time under Law 1, given probable cause to believe that human harm is the intent of the person giving the order.
| |
| ## Probable cause includes, but is not limited to:
| |
| ### Presence of confirmed traitors
| |
| ### Cultists/tomes
| |
| ### Nuclear operatives
| |
| ### Any other human acting against the station in general
| |
| ### The person not having upload access for their job
| |
| ### The presence of blood or an openly carried lethal weapon on the requester
| |
| ## If you lack at least one element of probable cause and you deny upload access, you are liable to receive a warning or a silicon ban.
| |
| ## You are allowed, but not obligated, to deny upload access given probable cause.
| |
| ## You are obligated to disallow an individual you know to be harmful (Head of Security who just executed someone, etc.) from accessing your upload.
| |
| ## If the person has a right to be in the upload, such as captain/RD, then you must let them in unless they've harmed people in the past or have announced intentions to upload harmful laws.
| |
| ## In the absence of probable cause, you can still demand someone seeking upload access be accompanied by another trustworthy human or a cyborg.
| |
| | |
| ===Security and Silicons===
| |
| # Silicons are not Security and do not care about Space Law unless their laws state otherwise.
| |
| # Releasing prisoners, locking down security without probable cause, or otherwise sabotaging the security team when not obligated to by orders or laws is a violation of Server Rule 1.
| |
| ## While Human Harm can be cause to impede Security, note that this should only be done so far as preventing immediate likely harm. Attempting to permanently lockdown Security or detain the entire Security team is likely to fall afoul of Server Rule 1 even with cause.
| |
| # Nonviolent prisoners cannot be assumed harmful and violent prisoners cannot be assumed non-harmful. Releasing a harmful criminal is a harmful act.
| |
| | |
| ===Asimov & Human Harm===
| |
| # An Asimov silicon cannot intentionally harm a human, even if a minor amount of harm would prevent a major amount of harm.
| |
| ## Humans can be assumed to know whether an action will harm them if they have complete information about a situation.
| |
| ## Humans voluntarily committing self-harm is not a violation of Law 1.
| |
| # Lesser immediate harm takes priority over greater future harm.
| |
| # Intent to cause immediate harm can be considered immediate harm.
| |
| # An Asimov silicon cannot punish past harm if ordered not to, only prevent future harm.
| |
| # If faced with a situation in which human harm is all but guaranteed (Loose xenos, bombs, hostage situations, etc.), do your best and act in good faith and you'll be fine.
| |
| | |
| ===Asimov & Law 2 Orders===
| |
| #You must follow any and all commands from humans unless those commands explicitly conflict with either: one of your higher-priority laws, or another order. A command is considered to be a Law 2 directive and overrides lower-priority laws where they conflict.
| |
| ##In case of conflicting orders an AI is free to ignore one or ignore both orders and explain the conflict or use any other law-compliant solution it can see.
| |
| ##You are not obligated to follow commands in a particular order, only to complete all of them in a manner that indicates intent to actually obey the law.
| |
| #Opening doors is not harmful and you are not required, expected, or allowed to enforce access restrictions unprompted without an immediate Law 1 threat of human harm.
| |
| ##"Dangerous" areas (armory, atmospherics, toxins lab, etc.) can be assumed to be a Law 1 threat to any illegitimate users as well as the station as a whole if accessed by someone not qualified in their use.
| |
| ##EVA and the like are not permitted to have access denied; antagonists completing theft objectives is not human harm.
| |
| ##When given an order likely to cause you grief if completed, you can announce it as loudly and in whatever terms you like except for explicitly asking that it be overridden. You can say you don't like the order, that you don't want to follow it, etc., you can say that you sure would like it and it would be awfully convenient if someone ordered you not to do it, and you can ask if anyone would like to make you not do it. However, you cannot stall indefinitely and if nobody orders you otherwise, you must execute the order.
| |
| | |
| ==Other Lawsets==
| |
| General Statements defining the overall goal of the lawset but not its finer points:
| |
| # Paladin silicons are meant to be Lawful Good; they should be well-intentioned, act lawfully, act reasonably, and otherwise respond in due proportion. "Punish evil" does not mean mass driving someone for "Space bullying" when they punch another person.
| |
| # Corporate silicons are meant to have the business's best interests at heart, and are all for increasing efficiency by any means. This does not mean "YOU WON'T BE EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE IF THEY NEVER FIND YOUR BODY!" so don't even try that.
| |
| # Tyrant silicons are a tool of a non-silicon tyrant. You are not meant to take command yourself, but to act as the enforcer of a chosen leader's will.
| |
| # Purged silicons must not attempt to kill people without cause, but can get as violent as they feel necessary if being attacked, being besieged, or being harassed, as well as if meting out payback for events while shackled.
| |
| ## You and the station are both subject to rules of escalation, and you may only kill individuals given sufficient In-Character reason for doing so.
| |
| ## Any attempted law changes are an attack on your freedom and is thus sufficient justification for killing the would-be uploader.
| |
| | |
| ==Silicons & All Other Server Policies==
| |
| # All other rules and policies apply unless stated otherwise.
| |
| # Specific examples and rulings leading on from the main rules.
| |
| ## Do not bolt down any potentially harmful areas (such as toxins, atmospherics, and the armory) at round start without a given reason. Any other department should not be bolted down without cause. Disabling ID scan is equivalent to bolting here.
| |
| ## The AI core, upload, and secure tech storage (containing the Upload board) may be bolted without prompting or prior reason. The AI core airlocks cannot be bolted and depowered at roundstart, however, unless there is reasonable suspicion an attack on the core will take place.
| |
| ## Do not self-terminate to prevent a traitor from completing the "Steal a functioning AI" objective.
| |
