Report: [Mx] RandomGamer

You can quote Avgar all you wish. It is unrealistic and impossible to expect someone to abide FearRP while they are actively discharging a firearm. If anything you should have shot him in this situation as he was endangering the lives of citizens.

As previously stated, I was trying to resolve the situation without killing Random Gamer as I was ill-equipped to do so, and I was currently unable to call for backup as I was rushing to get behind him in order to place him at Gunpoint. Whether he was actively discharging his weapon or not, I came up behind him and had him at Gunpoint, which places him under FearRP.

If you were ill-equipped why would you move in and attempt to subdue him in the first place? You knew you could not take him down, why not get to safety and call for backup?

Good point, but I do have an explanation for this. 

As shots were fired, I felt that it would be inappropriate to take cover and call for backup, or equip my M4 from my inventory as I was attempting to save the citizens life, and in those situations, every second counts. The few seconds that Random was distracted by myself could have allowed the citizen running from him time to escape, if I was properly equipped to fend him off. However, at this time I was pre-occupied and was able to get behind Random and place him at Gunpoint and attempt to subdue him. if FearRP was in fact followed correctly, as you claim it was, Hitman, he would have surrendered. However, because it wasn't, the Citizen and myself died in this situation after a brief firefight with Random Gamer.
