is a cringe rule and a direct "fuck you" to commanders who like to deploy, is needlessly convoluted and the opposite of quality of life. Captain takes on responsibility for further crimes if they pardon which is the risk they take, "hur dur u actually have to come into the brig and use this annoying computer function" just makes life hard for everyone involved.
Also the brig timer automation is stupid too and taking the human element out of MPing, may as well just be a staff job at this point. Literally no one enjoys this rule, not unruly deltas, not MP mains, not captains. Atleast make it so the XO could perform the pardon on the CO's behalf if they are too busy, (its not like the game gives much for XO's to do)
I guarantee this will lead to an increase in brig bombings and murdered MPs as people get jailed away for 20 minutes for some trivial shit like stepping into CIC or breaking a window that takes 2 seconds to fix
Like if you agree
