Clarification of rules

[Reece709]

Hello, I'm reasonably new to this server but have some questions about the rules, particularly the rules about killing and RDM. With different admins telling me and my group various things, we have become confused on what exactly the rules are and how to avoid any trouble. My questions are: how do you ensure a captive does not escape when they run, but shooting them for running is low RP? How do you rescue/assist gang members from out of sight during combat, do you have to notify the enemy of your presence? Do your friends being shot at have to warn the enemy of your presence? And also, what counts as a valid kill reason? Apparently being robbed is not enough for your friends to kill the robbers, but your friends being killed is enough to shoot back without initiation. I'd appreciate some clarification here to avoid any disagreements in the future, thanks.

How do you ensure a captive does not escape when they run, but shooting them for running is low RP?

Answer: You should really have them in zipties ensuring they cannot run, however if you have to unrestrain them at any-point (say to drop their gear) then clearly explain a few times the consequences if they try to run (ie i will cut your restrains and you will drop your gear, if you run at any point then we will be forced to shoot you)

Do your friends being shot at have to warn the enemy of your presence?

Answer: If your friends are in an active gunfight in the area and you come to assist you do not have to tell the enemy you are there, you are free to engage any armed individuals that are actively engaging your friends.

Apparently being robbed is not enough for your friends to kill the robbers.

@Scott1sh covered most of them, I'll take these two.

- Your friends only need to warn the enemy of your presence if no shots have been fired and RP/Initiation is taking place. During an active firefight, engage any armed person. (As long as you are in the same gang - Gang initiation).

- If you are being robbed, you will need to counter initiate (with good RP) that your friends are nearby and they aren't happy with what you're doing. Once you have said this, your friends have been initiated into the situation and they can engage if need be.
