forgonesoul Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 So I recently ran into an issue with "New player(s)" robbing others. I myself almost was robbed by one of them. Upon asking an admin about new players robbing or if they had to wait, I was told they could but not vice versa. Which leads me to this. Whats stopping me from creating a new character specifically to rob other players with out having the worry of getting robbed while the "New Player" tag is still active? I suggest that a rule change should be made that does not allow for "New Players" to rob others until the tag is gone, or just completely removing that rule entirely as its rather contradicting that it is allowed. What are your (The community) thoughts on this? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flucifial Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 There should be rules preventing new players who can't be robbed from robbing others. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am saying, new players who are robbing others are also not able to get robbed due to the rule not allowing you to rob them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taedolf Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Yeah. On one hand, the rule is designed just to prevent absolute new players from getting chain robbed within 5 minutes of joining and getting frustrated then leaving. On the other hand, we also need to be fair to our older players and demonstrate equality. Doesn't make sense that someone can rob you and you can't rob them. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yputi Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) Mind me if I misunderstand or whatever, but I do remember the protection is lifted when they do crimes themselves: https://gyazo.com/1ce543c743f57946ee9a0353d0438960 Rule 7.5.5 states this as show in the SS Edited January 1, 2019 by Yputi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vasquez Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 The idea about adding the " New player " above their head, and increase the player XP was to eliminate new players getting robbed. New players robbing other's seems like an exploit. Maybe make new players unable to buy weapons until they reach the xp limit marker at 5000 xp? +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, how will you prevent them getting guns with the help of others? I already had tons of people asking me to get a gun for them because they didn't had their gun license yet to get one themselves. I don't think limiting will help in this case. Personally I can't think of any other solution involving scripts. I think just written rules should be made against this and peopel just need to report when broken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoza Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) What about adding an Asterisk or other indicator to the ((New Player*)) tag if they have imprisonments on their record? ((New Player)) to (('New Player'))? Edited January 2, 2019 by Xoza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoza Posted January 3, 2019 Report Share Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) I was robbed last night by 5-6 players together with the new player tag. They all seemed to know how to RP pretty well, knew where the drug labs were and driving nice cars. Seemed really sketchy. Disable mug, frisk, and inventory search or disable the tag as soon as they do that command or fire a weapon?

Disable mug, frisk, and inventory search or disable the tag as soon as they do that command or fire a weapon? When firing a weapon won't be an option I think. There is plenty of times people use a controller while driving and using the handbreak in combination with the server desync can cause a person to start shooting while the person "shooting" doesn't see that (happend to me alot in the past when I didn't know that was a thing). Yesterday at LSC there was a person shot, because others got shot by the person in a car. The person in the car informed OOC he never shot someone, but everyoen else saw him shooting.

Emulsify Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Currently the rules state that you can rob another player if they are still a new player if you have witnessed them committing a crime. Most if not all the other additions have also been implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
