FearRP Explanation

[RIC0H]

Can imagine it IRL right now..

Dude pulls a gun on me - I stand still
Dude then slaps me - I walk away from his loaded weapon aiming right at me saying "you hit me, I'm out"
Dude says "but I still have a loaded weapon pointed at you" and I say "so, you hit me, now I can go".

Also these are the rules:

Spoiler :

2.1 You must follow FearRP. Your character must act afraid of life-threatening situations or of any weapons pointed at you.
2.1a You cannot attack a person who has a gun (or stun gun) pointed at you.
2.1b You cannot draw a weapon when someone has you at gunpoint or in striking distance of a melee weapon.
2.1c You cannot run away from someone when they have you at gunpoint.
2.1d If someone switches from a gun to handcuffs/rope in order to detain you, FearRP still applies.

I did a quick search of the rules and couldn't find: "FearRP doesn't apply if you're hit/shot". So I'm not sure where that comes from.

This was the only thing I could find on FearRP, yet it doesn't state it here either:

Spoiler :

Again, a lot of our users seem to have misconceptions about what FearRP is and when it is applied.

What is FearRP:

FearRP is when your character is threatened with a weapon or a tazer. When threatened by a weapon (meaning the weapon is pointed at you or is reasonably close to cause danger - such as in the same room or near you, where the person can obviously shoot within two seconds), your character is to obey the armed person. That means you can't run off "because I was scared". You obey the armed man to the fullest extent.

FearRP is also when someone else has your friend or teammate hostaged, as you fear for his life. The lives of innocents are also valid reason for FearRP, when it applies to the police and SRU.


When FearRP applies to you and exceptions:

There are no exceptions.

FearRP ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS applies. No matter if the person doing that is doing it in your opinion "randomly", or "he didn't know what he was doing". It always applies. What you can do is call a staff member or post a ban request, if it was random. But even then, you will obey FearRP.
