Server 1
Please (in detail) describe the incident
This post is being made as a result of having several encounters with Ganja Nation. Friends I talk to and randomers alike all share similar stories of my experiences & it is something that I believe needs addressing in an attempt to increase the RP on the server. The following rule is what I would like to address in this post:
(7.1.3) Killing someone must be carried out with high quality roleplay, “put your hands up or I will shoot” etc is considered low quality RP and may lead to a ban for RDM/Fail RP. Executing another player must also be carried out with high quality roleplay, the only exception to this rule is if both you and the victim are engaged in a gunfight together.
Anytime I encounter them and it results in my surrender, I die by execution every single time - regardless of co-operation. This for me creates a disincentive for attempting to RP things out in an effort to come out on the other end of things with my head on my shoulders during a robbery etc. If from my experience I will be killed off regardless, what's the point of trying to talk things out? I feel a lot more inclined to just go out guns blazing every time, which for me kinda sucks on an RP server. You should value your life in RP as when you die, at least in your "character's mind", you are dead. Negotiating for your life in circumstances where you feel hopeless should be important - and this carry-on from Ganja Nation is having a very negative effect on creating that atmosphere on the server right now from where I'm standing. I feel as though it is pushing many players away from trying to negotiate for their livelihood, and instead just pewpew laserbeams last man standing wins.
The video attached is not a complete documentation of our entire encounter just now, as I only hit the shadowplay button which is set to 10 minutes when I decided to make this post, but I hope it shines a bit of light on why I am writing this. To give a bit of context for what happened prior to the start of the video; the cops had not shown up yet and they were robbing me. I put my hands up immediately and done exactly as they had asked of me the entire time. They wanted me to hand over my items, and me roleplaying out that my items were in separate pockets and I had to search for each specific item individually and hand them over one at a time warranted them executing me for "wasting their time". After that the cops showed up, maybe a minute or 2 before the video and then the rest is all there.
I would appreciate if a member of staff had a chat with them about this. Thanks for taking the time to read - Podge
