Interrupting role play with a robbery

Ive been in the situation a few times, where I was having great roleplay with someone (not in the green zone) and then someone with a gun comes along and robs you and leaves, totally interrupting and ruining the RP which was going on.... is this allowed? because it can kill some amazing role play scenarios that players are having.

I get that some people want to rob, and thats in the rules (though pretty dull and unimaginative for a role play server, IMO), but interupting good role play for just robbing someone is annoying.... 

What if we suggested that robbing can be done if the player(s) are not involved in RP (robber can listen to conversations before deciding to rob first if they are not in RP).

I know you might say "oh then no one would get robbed because they could claim they had RP before", but it would improve the server IMO.

 
It's allowed, occasionally it is shit BUT it can also make the scenario either turn extremely funny or distasteful. 

 
True, if the robber has good story, or they actually have good RP its good, but I'm kinda sick of just "put your hands up, give me all your money"-then leave robbery.

 
Better hope that robbery's initiation and subsequent roleplay is fucking top notch.

 
so many times it isnt tho... too many people see it as just an easy way of making money, and are no good at RP 😡

Example when we were reviving the guy by copper processor, ruined it all...

 
The thing is mate, that's the singular purpose of the greenzones. They're there so people can RP without being interrupted by people with guns who wish them harm.

I do understand RP happens dynamically and it's not always practical or even realistic to go to a greenzones to continue it, but to ask that people be prohibited from robbing you because your RPing really goes against the spirit of an RP server were the whole point is that you react to what's happening around you in character regardless of what it is.

The other thing to note regarding your idea about people not robbing folks if they are in RP.  You're basically RPing the minute you log into the server. You might not be in a conversation but you are still roleplaying.

I also think it could be abused by people. They could loudly roleplay with each other when they're trying to make money so the can't get robbed.

I'd suggest if you really want uninterrupted RP, and your not in a green zone, maybe make something up like "Let's carry this conversation on in a more populated area, I was robbed here last week."
