Cop Hunting shouldn't be allowed

http://mikescnr.com/forum/index.php/topic,3061.0.html


apparently it is allowed

They shouldn't be shooting cops regardless of how close they get unless the cops are armed and ready to shoo, then sure go ahead and blaze at them.

Majority of the criminals who are always 6 star wanted always cop hunt, and nothing is being done about it yet so.

+1 on suggestion

im on my phone so i wont be able to explain it properly anyway imo i"d go for a -1

I've been bitching about this, along with gang members protecting their friends even when they're innocent/far away/not in any way involved, for months now so yes, I agree.

If cop isn't actively chasing you you have no reason to kill him. He's as much of a threat as any player around you who might /rob you. You can't kill him before he actually robs you, why should it be any different with cops? No, I don't mean you should wait until he starts cuffing you, but you could at the very least wait for him to start running/driving towards you, pulling a gun out, a tazer or something. If he has clear intention to arrest/kill you, you can react. If he's just driving around collecting tikis, buying clothes in a shop, withdrawing cash at ATM, he's not a threat so you definitely don't have a reason to kill him. Not to mention criminals that are chasing and killing cops outside the active city, that's pure DM and should be changed asap.

Whoever disagrees with the logic above just enjoys DMing..it's up to Mike what he wants this server to be though.

Imagine

Being a civilian with weapons, you see a cop minding their own business, maybe buying weapons or refueling their vehicle, so then you walk up to them and /rob them.

Now you have 2 wanted, making you orange.

Now just pull out your wep and kill them.

No no, don't stress, it's not RDM.

You are wanted now, you are allowed to do so, who cares if they are doing something else and minding their own business, kill them man, just do it, it's allowed, easy score man do it, bring some friends with you too haha.

Only on here it isn't considered RDM because well, you were wanted and they were a cop, not that hard to put 2 and 2 together.

Even if the time frame from you being a civilian > you being wanted > you killing a cop was 1-3 seconds. It's still allowed.

There is no rule against it.


EDIT: scrap that, don't imagine, just watch my video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sA5tzwgqL0c

(everything in this video, though it is cheap and noob, is allowed within the current rules)

- any player in this video who is upset with what i've done, PM me in-game for some compensation, I didn't mean to kill you for no reason, just for proof in this thread.

-1 . Came here from cnr which cophunting wasnt allowed . So i know which problems it causes .

Exactly. I've said this more than once, but so far nothing changed. The only thing I can suggest to you is to switch to civilian and do the same. Start killing cops.. Go to ammunation, wait for them to start buying shit, press your /rob keybind and kill them with a sniper. Chase them around the map, kill them whenever they are 300m away from PD to avoid spawn killing. If you're next to someone who is fighting a cop, help him kill the cop - simply say he's your friend.

I started doing that, because that's the only way to get people to bitch about it, and that will hopefully change something. More than 50% of the current playerbase came from DM servers and they find this appealing because this pretty much is a DM server (because of the rules), so OBVIOUSLY they don't want this changed. They're happy with it. Unless you ruin that fun from them, by simply being a civilian and forcing every cop to change by hunting them, this will continue to be the case. I don't see this getting changed unless people stop playing as cops..let's speed up the process :shrug:

+1 on suggestion

As you can see, they're not even capable of presenting an argument to back up their disapproval of this suggestion. Not to mention this ain't even a voting poll in the first place so your +1 or -1 means jack shit.

-1, this would just cause moderators an extra thing to deal with. not needed.

i will guarantee you there would be so many situations where a cop would attack someone then run back and complain about getting killed.

i for myself, come from a cnr server where cophunting isn't allowed and everytime someone is complained for cophunting its because a cop ran into some criminals, attacked them and then complained about being killed.

this is not needed at all, and even if you actually aren't cophunting and you kill a cop he can still report you for it.

where would the line be drawn ?

if a cop attacked you first, should you be allowed to kill him ?

I am pruning this thread of useless replies that add nothing except +1 or -1, its not a voting thread.

You do realize in order for someone to get punished admin needs to review the complaint, not just take his word for it. You'd have to prove that you didn't in any way harm that person, same as if you were a civilian complaining about DM. There's no "more job" in this, it would just be a new rule which would lower the amount of DM on this server. So obviously, 10second videos wouldn't be accepted because something could have happened before you started recording (you arresting him or assisting in his arrest/death etc). However, some players keep DMing cops over and over again, so it wouldn't really be that hard to catch (especially for admins, who have the power to spectate and see their gameplay).

"this is not needed" starter pack :







EDIT: just to meme this a bit more :

damn lmao

Nothing wrong with that, obviously players can go and report it with proof like me if they want something to be done.

Moderators are hired for a reason and as the server gets bigger and more features added, it only makes sense for some new rules to be put in place in the sake of fairness.

It can start as a simple rule in /dm /rules: "don't hunt for cops around the map, only kill if they're following / approaching you"

It can't be that hard to follow these rules and avoid those situations, it's just some players on here look for trouble/problems.
