why is it allowed on this server?
Look I understand that if you're a Cop and you make your way towards a Wanted Criminal, that they have every right to kill you, that is fair.
You are chasing and / or nearing into their location and it makes sense, they're armed, they're dangerous and they will either run or fight for their life.
But what if you're a Cop in my situation, far away from all major criminals, just trying to arrest a ticket evader...
Why would you even expect a criminal to come and find you?
That's very idiotic of a criminal to do, they should be trying to evade you and only try killing you if you shoot at them or get too close to them.
Makes sense, don't it? Well not on here.
This is a video I would like to share. In my honest opinion, this is just deathmatch thing, not a cops and robbers thing.
People abusing the fact they are criminals to get cheap kills against cops who are minding their own business.
Since when is it "OKAY" to purposely go and find a Police Officer on the other side of the map, just to kill them?That is called Cop Hunting and it shouldn't be allowed, heck, may aswell camp outside any Police Department and kill every cop as they spawn.
(I don't see anything on the server that would disallow this from happening, apart from maybe some sort of anti spawn kill)
Going out of your way to kill someone who is doing nothing to you and has done nothing to you recently, is RDM.Here's the thing, it doesn't work the other way around, if you're a criminal, you committed crimes, you know your actions and you know your consequences.
You earned your score, money etc in doing so, so it is justified that a cop can come and find you to either arrest or kill depending on the circumstances.
But being a criminal doesn't give you the right to kill an officer for no reason.A Police officer already has stages of arrests and rules to work around when chasing you, if you are unarmed, we try and arrest with tazer and cuff when possible.
If you are armed and resisting, we will shoot to kill if necessary. There is already so many parameters for officers, all you have to do as a criminal is just either run or fight, you don't have to follow any procedures, you don't have to discriminate, you have 2 options and that is that. (you can give up if you want)
But going across the map to kill a cop who isn't after you, is wrong.There needs to be some additional rules added to prevent this, seriously.And I will self explain about the video:
- I fired at the unarmed criminal because when I saw the other cop shooting at him, I assumed he might have been armed at the time, he was at a far distance and in real time, I couldn't see if he had a weapon equipped or not. After hitting a bullet, when I received the notification that he was un-armed, I immediately stopped firing. (you don't know unless you try?)
