    What rule(s) were broken:
    Rule 6. No metacommunication

    Description of the incident:
    On Trijent Dam, two marines were chasing me as a lurker from the loading bay of the LZ2. They lost me soon after exiting it - south of containers. I ran north and they ran eastwards. I went to the graveyard, from south, and rested in the bush. Iirc, none of my sprite pixels were protruding from the bush.

    Half a minute later or so, the two came to the graveyard, from south as well, one went straight up to that bush, immediately activated their bell, started moving from side to side (as if to evade a possible pounce) and started firing - but not directly at me, just randomly into the bush. In fact none of the bullets hit me until I got up.

    A condition where it should be completely evident that it was a metacomms incident (and I mean 100% - leaving no room for excuses):

    The marine who ran up to the bush and started firing at me first (while their GL companion waited some distance away prepared to support them with nades) didn't right click on the tile I was resting to inspect it.

    Again, this alone should be sufficient for the staff to confirm metacomming here, as without inspecting tiles, there should have been no way for them to tell that I was in that bush. I have rested there for a while prior, so tracking via motion detector doesn't apply here.

    And to the contrary - if they have actually inspected my tile, it would be weird of course, but this report would be nullified.

    Evidence (screenshots, logs, etc):
    https://cm-ss13.com/wiki/images/9/92/Trijent_Dam.png - Trijent map, if anyone is wondering where the named locations are.

    What resolution are you seeking?
    While round end metacomming is probably, and understandably, regarded as a much lesser violation - lets be realistic; players who metacomm after the round end do it at other times as well. It's just more likely that they will get careless with it after or near the round end.

    I'm not a party to the report, but as a mentor I'll add relevant information that you do not activate the bell manually, it automatically activates when you're near xenos.

    Here's a video of me showing it off, it still rings automatically for you resting.

    It's very clear that the bell alerted them to your presence. There is no indication of a rule violation here.
