OLDER VERSION: http://www.fearlessrp.net/showthread.php?tid=21869
The old topic was well worked on, questions were answered on time, but it is starting to get messy. I have created a new one and lined up all the asked questions and provided answers, future answered ones will also be added for fast lookup.
Please leave answering questions to staff members only, as otherwise may create confusion.
Direct to this topic from now on, old one has been closed and replaced with this one.

Hey I made a few small stands for selling food, they are very very small, like the size of two people. I have a little gate that closes it off for when my guy goes on lunch breaks and such, I have a button on the inside but not on the outside cause people would *** with it, and having a keypad looks unrealistic.

I'm with the mafia and we just pulled a gun up to someone, he breaks fear RP by not acting scared and pulls a prop infront of him blocking us. i get angry and loose control and say "i'm banning you" (implyed that i will tell an admin about what has just happened.)
an admin freezes me and gives me a proper warning, for impostering an admin for saying "im going to ban you."
should this have happened? i'm not sure i read in the rules it says you cant imposter an admin, not that i was doing it Tongue.
anyway thanks in advance.

Answer:
If I hear someone equip ammo how should I react? Lets say I am a police officer and I hear the ammo sound, can I taze them before the pull the gun out? Seeing as in real life you need to pull out the magazine to equip ammo into it. You, however, still need to load the gun in game after you equipped the ammo, thats why its confusing to me.
Answer:
Are you aloud to set taxes to $30 without a reason? And if so, can people raid you for it? (not can they raid you for high taxes, i mean can they raid you if you have no reason for high taxes?)
Answer:

If the person is trying to kill me with a prop, would I then be allowed to shoot him in self-defence? Or would that also count as backseat administrating?
Answer:
I own a club with a DJ stand can I use music in my mic or how do I get into the radio?
Answer:
If you are a paramedic is it ok to find some place to just chill (like listen to a radio or something) and just wait there until you either receive a call or witness an accident?
Answer:
Guns are illegal, this is in the perma laws. Gun dealer is a underground job.
Now lets say the presidents allow citizens to have weapons in self defence, does this mean that the gun dealers can have shops and advert it and have their shop in peace or am I allowed to "raid" it as a cop and put the gun dealer into the slammer like I would be allowed to if it was a black market dealer? I see gun shops all over the place and I am not sure if the rules state that I am free to raid. I have only heard about its free to raid BMDs if they advert about their shop or make signs.
Answer:
If a agency (HR) is working with the Goverment, and see UFOs attacking the city, is it FailRP to attempt to shoot the UFOs out the air?
Answer:
I've got a question.
Stealing a vehicle because your own was stolen is obviously against the rules, but if you're a police officer/special service and get an urgent call, are you allowed to commandeer a vehicle? By this I don't mean lockpicking a car, but stopping a car and ordering the driver to either take you to that place or let you drive the vehicle with him/her in it. Police do that IRL.
Answer:
If someone steals a car and dumps it in the lake on v2p is it alright for the car owner to reconnect to retrieve it then?
Answer:
Can I ask for a slay if I spawn with a player model that doesn't fit my RP?
Answer:
Me and a friend were wondering if we are allowed to use Skype or team a private team speak to talk to each other whilst playing Fearless
Answer:
Is it allowed to rp animals?
Answer:
If a player has a gun and is shooting at you, are you allowed to tranq him and kill him? If not I don't see the point in the tranq gun, because all he will do is get back up, hunt you down, and kill you.
When a gunfight is going on, can you tranq a opposing player who has a weapon out, them and run up to them and tie them up? Or would this be considered FearRP?

Spoiler: Image
Answer:
Spoiler :
Against the rules, public and unrealistic/nonsensical building, propblocking (and possibly fading door abuse and doomforting, if he can get inside and shoot through tiny slits.)
He needs to get permission from the President definitely, he can get that through the radio, PM's or IC chat.

Lets say, you have a stand that sells some thing some where in public. And you get a admins permission. The next time you go on and there's no admins on and you want to put the stand down in the same spot. Would you need to get permission again?
Answer:
Spoiler :
You need permission every time you build in public.
Can i fence in the lake part on 2d and make a nature park rp and i will have bears birds fish etc.?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If you were to do this it would have to be fully supervised by an administrator, organised via the forums as an event and would require realistic builds with, hopefully, a lot of effort. (No slapping some wire fences and charging $50 for access) Even then, I would contact a supervising administrator for more confirmation.
Are invisible cameras allowed?
Answer:
Spoiler :
No.
If you own all doors in industrial (More than one person owning doors but are working together), can we block off the tunnels and make a check point? (Want to make an RP event)
Can you block off UM if you own it?

Since it's for Passive RP and I have absolutely nothing in the stand except props cause nothing would fit, is it still prop block??
Answer:
Spoiler :
To all 3 questions: Show your build to an admin and get permission to spawn it every time before taking it to use. No admin on the server = no blocking off areas or public building.
If you block of an entire area, For example, The Church village in v33x and you own all the doors, Is it allowed?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If by "blocking" the little village you mean putting a fadding door and keypad/button then it's fine.
If you block of an entire area, And if it has no doors you can own ( Tides hotel ) Is it allowed?
Answer:
Spoiler :
As far as I am aware you can own the doors at the Tides Hotel? Anyhow, I have seen many hotels used there.
One thing I would do is incorporate rules together. For example, you can purchase all of the doors at the Tides (At least on v2d) and make some sort of passive RP, but you can't make it into a massive contrabase or any similar form of criminal base that will result in aggressive behaviour such as raids or firefights.
Now, you have to be sensible. For the example of the Tides, say you wanted to build a hotel there then I would advise making your 'barrier' further up so that the public can still access the proper 'public' part of the Tides.
Rules that are involved in this include:
6. Do not build custom doors behind an unownable door, exceptions are: Nexus and offices. (I would perhaps like some clarification to this from a full admin on whether the Tide Hotel could be incorporated into this for passive roleplays only.)
7. All buildings in the main city street and all obvious shops are reserved for passive RP. Do not base here.

Does the regular doors in the door tool count as custom doors, as they can be rammed and lockpicked?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Doors from the door tool are custom as they are made by you and not default on the map.
If you propclimb on naturaly spawned items ( Ex. Trash cans, Buildings, Tables ) Does it still count as propclimb? Or is it considered something else?
Answer:
Spoiler :
It considers as prop climbing and it is bannable.
Is having a keypad on both side (inside and exterior) of a gate disallowed?
Answer:
Spoiler :
It is allowed to have keypads/buttons on both sides. Be it keypads on both or buttons on both. As long as there is 1 keypad per 1 side of the fading door.
Can you block off a place such as the car wash or colour changing spot?
Answer:
Spoiler :
No.
Is putting something in the back of a tides truck considered modifying it if it just simply placed inside?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Carrying cargo is okay.
Is contraband within the office banned?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Yes.
Is it allowed to spawn contrabands in self-built prophouses?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Prophouses, with and without contraband, are OK as long as they're not doomforts and obey all other prop/building/basing rules (not blocking off any public areas, must be realistic, keypads and buttons, etc.)
§2. Death/killing/raiding
Spoiler :
If I drive over someone on the road, is considered CDM?
Answer:
Is shooting/stabbing a tranquillised body allowed if you have a valid reason to kill them?
Answer:
If a driver is a direct threat to you and or those around himself/ has just run someoneover and is not stopping and is going to end up killing someone else, can lethal force be used?
Answer:
Though with the new damage system a new non lethal alternative has emerged to bring the vehicle to a stop. Can't I just shoot at every car to make them stop?
Answer:
Are police authorised to use force to bring a vehicle to a stop or to simply slow it down if the circumstances warrant it?
Answer:
Are you allowed to raid if you know they have contraband?

Expanded question:
Answer:
Can you ask your men to free you from an ongoing arrest or kill the one arresting you?
Answer:
If the government arrests a member or leader of your crime group example Rebel Leader or Don Corleone gets arrested by government is that a valid reason to raid the government?
Answer:
Can you return to a raid after 5 minutes?
Answer:
Can you raid for the sole purpose of contraband?
Answer:
If a friend is being arrested, and he needs help, am i allowed to pull a gun at tell him to let him go? If he doesn't, am i allowed to hostage him? If he doesn't comply, can i kill him?
Answer:
If a Police Officer gets demoted, can he then, as a citizen. set a custom job as a Police Veteran or Police Rebel and attack the governement because he got demoted ? Or is that NLR ?
Answer:
Am I allowed to go to the presidents office and threaten him to change certain laws and kill SS/Cops if they attack me after I warned them? I got told it was a raid but it's not.
Answer:
What is the official standing on NLR and raids?
Answer:
Is it back seat admin if someone try's to RDM you can use self defense like only if they shoot you first with an intention of killing with out a good RP reason can you try self defense.
Answer:
Does NLR count if you get propkilled/cdmed/car pushed(into a kill)?
Answer:
If you were building/doing a RP and you died, can you go back?
Answer:
If raided and near death, am I allowed to holster my gun spamming the binded holster button?
Answer:
Answer:
Spoiler :
This depends. If the player suddenly runs across the road in front of you then it's not your fault. But, if you go speeding through the city, running red lights etc and hit someone then it can be considered CDM. Just make sure to roleplay as if you had actually hit someone, don't just drive off.
Is shooting/stabbing a tranquillised body allowed if you have a valid reason to kill them?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Should be avoided, since killing anyone must always be a last resort.
If a driver is a direct threat to you and or those around himself/ has just run someoneover and is not stopping and is going to end up killing someone else, can lethal force be used?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If the person inside does indeed present a great threat to lives, then yes. you can fire - assuming you would do the same if he were running on foot.
Though with the new damage system a new non lethal alternative has emerged to bring the vehicle to a stop. Can't I just shoot at every car to make them stop?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Irrelevant. When police officers fire upon vehicles, they always have to acknowledge themselves that bullets can hit the driver, any passengers, any cargo or bystanders. Always assume the worst.
Are police authorised to use force to bring a vehicle to a stop or to simply slow it down if the circumstances warrant it?
Answer:
Spoiler :
When police officers open fire, they always have to assume this will severely injure or kill their suspect. This should establish a frame of when it's okay to shoot, mainly when the target must be stopped at all costs.
Are you allowed to raid if you know they have contraband?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Not as a civilian or a merchant.
What would be considered a random raid?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Raiding without a valid reason, such as raiding for fun or because you're bored
If you are CDMed or RDMed does NLR still count?
Spoiler :
Answer:
Depends on the situation, if you're RPing and someone (that has nothing to do with your roleplay) decides to run your group over, you may just return to the location and continue your roleplay. But be sure to contact an admin/moderator. This also applies when you get shot randomly.

If someone randomly raids you, can you hostage them?
Answer:
Spoiler :
No, since a random raid is OOC business. You should ask the player to stop and contact an admin asap. When you hostage/tie them you're on the border of backseat admining, which is bannable.
Can you CDM someone for an IC reason?
Expanded question:
Spoiler :
Like for example, yesterday I was just patrolling as cop when I spotted two rebels. One was very far in front of the other and was shooting a sniper rifle at apparently nothing. So I stop behind the farther back rebel, pull out my gun and take cover behind my car. Would it have been allowed for my to just drive up and run him over, which would be the much safer way to go about the situation?
Also I am curious, does fear rp count if they just open fire immediately without warning or any chance for you to try and fear rp to save your life?
Also I am curious, does fear rp count if they just open fire immediately without warning or any chance for you to try and fear rp to save your life?
Answer:
Spoiler :
In answer to your first question, quite simply no. Using vehicles is not a valid way to kill someone.
FearRP is only valid up to a certain point, as common sense would be. For example, if there is a large group of armed men and they're brandishing their weapons but not killing you then you have to do what they say. Generally, the moment it turns to you actually being killed, as in the example you described, you're not going to stand there and just get shot; that is when you try and dodge things and fend for yourself.

Expanded question:
Spoiler :
So if I'm near a rock and they start shooting, as a cop, I can then run behind the rock for cover and return fire? I did this and was told off by a few people on the server, there were no staff on so I just assumed all of them were right and I was wrong? But like you said, you're not just going to stand there and let them turn from holding you on the ground to starting to shoot at you. IRL I would find cover asap. Is that rule abiding?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If someone starts shooting at you, Fear RP will still be in effect, but differently. You see, if someone aims a weapon at you, you don't move because you're scared of being shot. If someone starts actually shooting at you, you are scared of being hit therefore you run/get cover.
In other words, if someone is actually trying to kill you, not just threatening you, you can run/hide/shoot back and whatnot.

Can you ask your men to free you from an ongoing arrest or kill the one arresting you?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Well, your men are not allowed to kill the officer becuase you're going to be arrested, but they can threat him to relese you. (While holding the officer in a gun point.)
If the government arrests a member or leader of your crime group example Rebel Leader or Don Corleone gets arrested by government is that a valid reason to raid the government?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Not so much to raid the government itself, but you could certainly attempt a breakout.
Can you return to a raid after 5 minutes?
Answer:
Spoiler :
I brought this up and there has been some ambiguity to it with staff too.
SA ruling was as follows:
After 5 minutes has passed, you are permitted to return to a raid only if there are surviving members there and they're calling for back-up etc. However, should the raid drag on too long then an admin may step in and decide that you can not return back which, of course, would eventually finish the raid.

Can you raid for the sole purpose of contraband?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Just going around raiding with the sole purpose of hunting and destroying contra is not accepted.
If a friend is being arrested, and he needs help, am i allowed to pull a gun at tell him to let him go? If he doesn't, am i allowed to hostage him? If he doesn't comply, can i kill him?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Try to distract the officer first. Killing should always be a last resort.
If a Police Officer gets demoted, can he then, as a citizen. set a custom job as a Police Veteran or Police Rebel and attack the governement because he got demoted ? Or is that NLR ?
Answer:
Spoiler :
NLR applies when you start a new life, you do NOT when you receive a demotion. It is a bad idea to initiate an attack on the government for the lone reason that you have been demoted by your overhead.
Am I allowed to go to the presidents office and threaten him to change certain laws and kill SS/Cops if they attack me after I warned them? I got told it was a raid but it's not.
Answer:
Spoiler :
It's a raid in terms of RP regulations (in lack of a better word)
What is the official standing on NLR and raids?
Answer:
Spoiler :
You are allowed to go back if called by a survivor, as long as it's reasonable - this means not violating NLR in any of it's forms (wait 5 minutes at least before returning, act like you've never been there before, forget who killed you and from where, etc.)
Is it back seat admin if someone try's to RDM you can use self defense like only if they shoot you first with an intention of killing with out a good RP reason can you try self defense.
Answer:
Spoiler :
Self defense is allowed, but it really has to be self defense, not just "he was shooting randomly so I killed him just in case."
Does NLR count if you get propkilled/cdmed/car pushed(into a kill)?
Answer:
Spoiler :
You are to avoid going back to the place you died, if an admin is online contact them for permission. Otherwise - if an admin isn't online, [...] if its absolutely necessary to take evidence for a Ban request, you can do so too.
If you were building/doing a RP and you died, can you go back?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If you were killed by a prop while building then it is fine to go back. However if there's a staff member online make sure he knows about it.
If raided and near death, am I allowed to holster my gun spamming the binded holster button?
Answer:
Spoiler :
There is no rule against holstering your weapon to avoid losing it.
§3. Specific roleplay/jobs/other

More than a valid reason, it needs to be somewhere where mugs would usually occur. For example, the alleway in the slums area. You can mug someone if you wish, but don't ask for $2,000. Ask for something more realistic, like "Give me what you have!", then specify in OOC $50 or something similar.
A reason? Perhaps your character has been just been let out of jail and you want to RP as a criminal with no money, living in the slums and whatnot.

Can merchants have contraband at all?
Answer:
Spoiler :
The rule expressly condemns 'basing' specifically, which I and many others have always categorised as sitting in a room, contrafarming and thus not performing your job. There is also the factor of FailRP, so I think that Gundealers and Black Market Dealers, both of whom are the most closely linked to the underground world, are allowed to possess contraband but are NOT allowed to base. If at any time it affects their ability to perform their job, it causes a problem. Chefs and Chauffeurs should not have contraband at all, they're civilian jobs and having contraband would be FailRP.
Is metagame saying that you saw something IC in the OOC chat?
Answer:
Spoiler :
In a way, yes. It is best to avoid ALL forms of IC in OOC. The worst case of that would be if someone acted upon that information. Exclamations such as 'Woah, [Player X] has a nice lambo' wouldn't be classed as metagaming.

A while back someone kept robbing my store without any real reason other than roleplaying as a robber, and I was told this was fairly reasonable, is this still the case?

Spoiler :
No, but we are working on a new ruleset to alloe street crime.

What if one person has a different type of gun or more expensive gun of same type?
Answer:
Spoiler :
We don't work around the "bigger gun, better gun" system.
What if one side has more than one person with a gun?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If A is one person and B is 2 persons, fearRP applies depending on the situation; if B is in front of A, fearRP does not necessarily apply, if one B is in front of A and the other B is behind A, fearRP complies. In other words; be realistic with the situation, 2 people against one wouldn't necessarily mean that the person would fear, but if he's surrounded by two people, he might want to consider putting his weapon down and surrendering. If there are 3 people or more, the person should put down his gun.

Can fear rp be used to make someone drop an item from their inventory? If yes, does it depend on value?
Answer:

Answer:
Spoiler :
Demanding to sell the doors is acceptable, if RP'd properly - meaning huge organized hostile takeovers, this is way out of league for a lonesome small-time criminal.
I've seen several times that black market dealers set up stores in the city, isn't this job illegal and should be kept a secret?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Black Market Dealers shouldn't own stores in the city as the items they sell are underground items. They should rely more on people contacting them directly.

Is it "random arrest" if i suspect the person in his house to do illegal things? And how do I prove that he is doing illegal things?
Answer:
Spoiler :
That highly depends on the situation. For example, say you are a Police Officer and you come across a house with boarded windows, you can ask the owner why their windows are boarded and if you can take a look inside. If the person refuses to let you in then scout the house and wait until you have solid proof of something illegal inside (Money printers/ Drug Labs/ Weed [if illegal]). Only then can you arrest the person.
If you are a security guard, officer, gun dealer, black market dealer, etc. can you hostage somebody?

If it was your Ban request then you can voice yourself in the appeal, but be sure to note down that you filed the complaint in the first place.
What is powergaming, and when am I powergaming?
Answer:
Spoiler :
Power gaming tends to take on two forms.
First is the obvious one; switching to jobs and utilising the market for your own gain and then switching back. You should always aim to find a merchant or advertise your interest in purchasing items; not get them yourselves. This is a pretty black and white offence and is likely to result in a warning or ban depending on the circumstances.
The second form is when you attempt to force roleplay scenarios on another individual, notably using /me or /it. An example would be when raiding the President and you're in the final stretch, you cannot simply type /it The ceiling falls in and all the opposition drop dead. Another one would be trying to powergame your way into the Nexus by simply saying /me shows a valid ID. Of course, none of this ever applies if all parties are involved in a consensual roleplay and are fine with it; but it is powergaming when you are forcing others to abide by what you happened to type first. This will generally be a warning because of the heavy part context plays in it; but extensive power gaming with experience could lead to a ban.

If I get taken hostage, and if I RP not having the money to pay for my release, am I then breaking FearRP? Do they have to release me?
Answer:
Spoiler :
For a good RP reason, it is okay to not be able to afford, though if that is their demand they have reason to not let you go until they have received the $2,000 they were asking for.
If you have been banned by an admin or mod for example, and you have him or her on your friends list and you start to insult to that admin in an steam chat. Does that count as adminstrator disrespect?
Answer:
Spoiler :
If somebody who's never been on FL lays it down on an admin or mod for being terrible at CS:GO, then obviously we won't ban anyone.
If this hostility however is about FL, him/her being a staff member and taking care of their duty, then this can lead to punishment. Obviously, we've all gotten a ton of mild criticism for doing our jobs and we don't really care for it. However, when a person catches our eye by taking his attacks to a whole new level of hatred and disrespect, we will definitely reward his performance with an appropriate suspension.

Could SS Agents use suits as long as it is permitted by the President, or is it against the rules?
Can an agent participate in an undercover operation impersonating [...] as long as it does not include any kind of raid participation?
Answer:
Spoiler :
To answer the question of "undercover positions" within the government, the answer is no. If you wish to be a representative of a government agency (FBI,CIA, a detective or similar) you should change your job to unemployed, get permission from the President, then do whichever RP you had in mind.
About the SS and suits, there really isn't a reason for them to be wearing those. The SS stands for Special Service, the SWAT/GIGN/SEAL of EvoCity. The only reason for the suits I can think of is when the President is somewhere out in public, so he would prefer one or two of his men to be more formal. I personally never allow them to wear suits, as they look intimidating in their uniforms.

I have met this problem a couple of times. Sometimes it is a suit with a black male and when you see them next time for an arrest they are now a white male. And I dont really know what to do in these scenarios.

I hear different answers a lot on this, can SS wear a suit if there president/dictator allows them?
Answer:
Spoiler :
It requires an actual reasons other than "Durrr, I liek dem lookin' fine".
For instance, the President wants to hold a speech, he should have one SS in a civilian uniform in the crowd, to watch it. Again, it would always be better if his bodyguard or custom unemployed guards wear suits, as the SS has an impressive gear which is used for psychological warfare.

Answer:

I have a question.
I'm with the mafia and we just pulled a gun up to someone, he breaks fear RP by not acting scared and pulls a prop infront of him blocking us. i get angry and loose control and say "i'm banning you" (implyed that i will tell an admin about what has just happened.)
an admin freezes me and gives me a proper warning, for impostering an admin for saying "im going to ban you."
should this have happened? i'm not sure i read in the rules it says you cant imposter an admin, not that i was doing it Tongue.
anyway thanks in advance.
Answer:
Spoiler :
Please refrain from using those terms, maybe tell him what he's doing wrong or just simply call an administrator. Record your gameplay and post a ban request, in this case you may say something along those lines: "I am going to post a ban request on you if you don't stop.".

If I hear someone equip ammo how should I react? Lets say I am a police officer and I hear the ammo sound, can I taze them before the pull the gun out? Seeing as in real life you need to pull out the magazine to equip ammo into it. You, however, still need to load the gun in game after you equipped the ammo, thats why its confusing to me.
Answer:
Spoiler :
Hearing the ammunition is tantamount to ensuring that a weapon is being prepared. In the unlikely event that they load a weapon right in front of you, that, in theory, would entitle you to act upon said information.
Are you aloud to set taxes to $30 without a reason? And if so, can people raid you for it? (not can they raid you for high taxes, i mean can they raid you if you have no reason for high taxes?)
Answer:
Spoiler :
You require a reason for adjusting taxes, especially to higher boundaries. Failure to do so is in violation of roleplay rules and therefore raiding because of a 'poor reason' would be considered as backseat administration.

Can I tranquilize someone that is propkilling, when there is no admins on the server? Not if they just propkill one guy, but if they propkill everyone they see?

Depends highly on the circumstances, however in most cases it does go under backseat administrating - safe bet is to keep clear of rulebreakers.

Absolutely. Making a nice Paramedic station is good RP.
Guns are illegal, this is in the perma laws. Gun dealer is a underground job.
Now lets say the presidents allow citizens to have weapons in self defence, does this mean that the gun dealers can have shops and advert it and have their shop in peace or am I allowed to "raid" it as a cop and put the gun dealer into the slammer like I would be allowed to if it was a black market dealer? I see gun shops all over the place and I am not sure if the rules state that I am free to raid. I have only heard about its free to raid BMDs if they advert about their shop or make signs.
Answer:
Spoiler :
If guns are legal, then gun shops are by logic also okay.

I've got a question.
Stealing a vehicle because your own was stolen is obviously against the rules, but if you're a police officer/special service and get an urgent call, are you allowed to commandeer a vehicle? By this I don't mean lockpicking a car, but stopping a car and ordering the driver to either take you to that place or let you drive the vehicle with him/her in it. Police do that IRL.
Answer:

In extreme cases and only if RP'd very well.

If a player has a gun and is shooting at you, are you allowed to tranq him and kill him? If not I don't see the point in the tranq gun, because all he will do is get back up, hunt you down, and kill you.
Spoiler :
If you are in an active firefight and in the circumstances not affected by fear roleplay, you may tranquilize your opponent.
When a gunfight is going on, can you tranq a opposing player who has a weapon out, them and run up to them and tie them up? Or would this be considered FearRP?
Spoiler :
Yes.
