Allowed to take refuge in Kavala when being robbed?

[stimpen]

Now when Kavala is a safe zone it have happened a couple of times that people tends to race there if being robbed close by the city.

So far it have been avoided that we rob then in the actual safe zone but I wonder how to act if you start a robbery outside Kavala and they get away and are being hunted and drive into the Kavala safe zone.

Do the robbers have to abort then or are they allowed to fulfill the robbery inside the safe zone as it started outside of it? Like the cops are allowed to take you down on VIP island if you go there while being hunted.

If you started it outside, i'd say you can carry it inside, if they run there. Just tell them that you are doing it, so they have a chance to surrender and think on their mistake. Probably they won't, but that at least puts your guys on the moral high ground =)

I'd say if he makes it there it's a failed robbery and he is home free. It's a greenzone, period.

I disagree.  Running off to hide in a safezone in an attempt to terminate an on-going RP scenario should be considered fail RP imo.  Rather than doing that they should flee to the Police HQ for example, to keep the RP rolling.

the kavala safe zone is just that, it is safe, no robbing no shooting etc. if you let them get to kavala safe zone you dun goofed,

it is the same for the police we cannot use lethal due to it being a safe zone.

if the fleeing person got to the safe zone then you go in there and either rob or shoot them, you will be banned not the person fleeing,

the only option you have is try and rp them to leave some how and try again, just plan your robberies better.

But surely RP should reflect real life. Not everyone is going to roll over and hand an attacker their possessions. 

I say, if they get away, good on 'em! If I were being robbed and don't have the means to fight back then I'd leg it, period. 

The point of RP is you're playing a role that should follow certain rules. If your character would leg it or fight rather than give up their goods then surely that is their entitlement. You can always have fun trying to stop them getting away?

9 time out of 10 they panic and crash!

But I was thinking why should a robber not be allowed to fulfill the robbery in a green zone if it started outside just as the cops are allowed to fulfill an arrest in the green zone if the wanted guy is chased there?

Happens sometime that you try to rob someone in a vehicle and you don´t want to shoot them too fast and then sometimes they manage to get away and the hunt is on.

It feels kinda odd that if you are being hunted then you just rush to the safe zone and then they can´t touch you.

Now when the coce processing is so close it´s an easy way out just to drive into Kavala. And the guys at copper and iron trader can easy go to kavala aswell and people tend to do that, don´t know yet if it is that they try to rech the safe zone or thay just panic and went towards kavala of all places.

But I would like to know how the rules are if the situation ever comes up that someone reaches the safe zone. Then they can go back and forth over the border "now you can´t touch me, now you can, now you can´t touch me, now you can" feels kinda strange.

it would be similar to the police rule yes we can pursue a criminal into a safe zone but we cannot use lethal force to apprehend them only rubber bullet and tazer.

Sadly only police have non lethal weapons, plus we are not there to commit crime we are there to apprehend a criminal there is a rather large difference.

I can see where you are coming from and it must be annoying, but allowing it would cause more problems than it would solve due to people would just abuse it and say we chased them in there all the time.

Massive difference between police and criminals. There should be safe haven somewhere for players who do not want to be killed.
