Criminal roleplay?
#16
I see what you're saying, and yeah most players are somewhat limited by the rules in place, but that's because IRL people generally tend to do things for a reason.

How many times do Mafia break into suburban homes looking for contraband in real life?

If instead, it was RP'd that they wanted 'protection' money from the neighbourhood, or wanted to monopolise on contraband in that area - then it would be okay.

Hostaging also generally needs a reason, president's being captured as a high risk target etc. But generally rebels don't run into a shop and go 2K OR DIE! In real life - if they're drug addicts or something they'll just rob for a little bit of change.

I once RP'd a drug addict, and stole about $26 from the chef character, so that I could 'get more drugs'. But I didn't injure him, and he gave up the money without me going 2K OR DIE!

So generally, most things would be allowed if they're RP'd well - and the somewhat over zealous rules are to stop people trying to exploit it by finding loopholes. If you're RPing well, you're unlikely to get banned Smile

Just think about motivation for the character itself - why would they steal a car? Are they using it to get somewhere in a hurry? Or just for 'lolz'.. Because IRL cars are generally stolen to sell on, or for a reason.
