What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
Items placed using the Quarantine Placer that E-11 and SCUs get (i.e. signs and foam tanks) should automatically despawn as soon as the person that placed them switches away from either job. Possibly also if they are marked AFK, or after a certain amount of time.

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
Not as far as I could find.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
  • Quarantine signs and tanks left around after e.g. a breach or event aren't stuck there because the placer isn't available to remove them.
  • Lag reduction due to less entities
  • If a breach/event/whatever ends and they are left there, it may not make RP sense (e.g. site-wide amnestication or nuke of 008 breach happens, but signs and tanks are left around).

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
  • Things disappearing in front of people isn't exactly RP-friendly, but that happens anyway to the player themselves as they switch jobs
  • If the breach/event/whatever is still ongoing and they disappear, it could cause temporary problems as they'd need to get them down again

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
It prevents clutter which causes lag and gets in the way (or is RP-unfriendly based on the current state of things if e.g. the signs are now wrong).
