📝Player Theft, Scamming, Kidnapping & Hostage Taking

(Category A+)

Player Theft

All robberies must be conducted in a realistic way with a proper IC reason as to why you are robbing the player. Players may not force other players to withdraw money from a bank, sell a house, or sell a vehicle.

Players robbing players who are clearly civilians will not be allowed unless in a very discrete location.

For example: You find a player in an alley by themselves. This player can be robbed because he is in a place where no one will see the crime.

Criminals robbing players who are clearly other criminals (Wearing distinguishable identifier such as a specific piece of clothing/In a known criminal area/Carrying Illegal weapons/Clearly in the middle of committing a crime) will be allowed in less discrete areas as long as the proper escalation (running in saying hands hands hands is not proper escalation) is done and evidence through videos.

For example: You see 2 players in the middle of robbing a store, you decide your group wants the money. You and 3 of your gang members go in and decide to rob them.

Scamming

Scamming players in city is not a rule break. It doesn’t matter the item or quantity.

• For example: Someone wants to sell their car for 100K and you hand them the cash at the bank and they make a run for it.

OOC fraud or scamming a player out of their items is completely forbidden. If someone gives an OOC assurance that you won’t get scammed ICly.

• For example: You want to buy a car from someone for 100K and they /pm inform you that he won’t be scamming you in game. This not only goes against the scamming rule but also metagaming.

Kidnapping & Hostage Taking

Before kidnapping or taking someone hostage you will need proper RP to do so. Kidnappings must be realistic with a proper roleplay reason prior to doing the kidnapping. Also you can’t take any hostages in NCZs and also you can’t bait EMS and take on duty EMS as a hostage.

• For example: Player A robbed Player B, 5 minutes later Player B notices Player A at a shop, Player B and their friend put a gun to Player A and force them into a car. This would be a valid reason to kidnap them.

• Player A doesn’t agree with something that player B said, Player A gets frustrated by this and decides to kidnap them. This would not be a valid reason.

Taking a player around the corner or in an alleyway does not require any OOC consent from the individual. However, if you have to force them in a car or bring them to a location this is classified as kidnapping

• For example: You put a gun to someone’s back and tell them to go around the corner to rob them.
