Personnel

gollark: "If you want to murder people, do; if you don't, don't" doesn't make sense.
gollark: Well, we disallow murder and stuff because of consensuses that they're bad.
gollark: Ah, but the person doesn't exist at the time. They do exist if you create them, and thus have rights and access to time machines.
gollark: A good fraction of them were part of HeavOS initially.
