"Snitching" as a criminal

[Herbo]

The background of this post is pretty simple. What RP sense does it make for a criminal to go around snitching and going out of their way to snitch on people without a proper reason. I see absolutely 0 reason why it makes RP sense for a criminal to snitch on other criminals unless they have a really good reason.

I believe that snitching is a smart way to take attention off yourself in certain situations or have rival organizations suffer major losses. Thing is criminals snitch too much on Eclipse and they do it even when they gain nothing from it and/or police attention will only be a nuissance for the party they are snitching on.
Snitching is like a cardinal sin in the criminal underworld even if it's against your enemies. Criminal roleplayers call the cops way too frequently.

P.S.: @Herbo I understand your point but what's your suggestion?

There should be no suggestion lol, its literally all IC. If you want to cry about it you can cry but nothing will happen as all actions are IC and not OOC.

"no honor among thieves".

"tHiS iS a Ic IsSuE" nah shush, most criminals care about winning over actually roleplaying realistically, and realistically criminals wouldnt snitch on other criminals. Law of Omerta is huge, specially in southern LA and Compton. It just aint realistic for criminals to sing like a bird to PD ever.

honestly... should just provide a bounty of sorts if you snitch and they get caught. XD

its called, "no honor among thieves" that means when it comes to war or crime no rules are applied, that's the opposite of the moral code, that there are no morals thus, the opposite of the order of civilization, crims are the embodiment of evil, selfishness and crossing any boundary's to extreme lengths of winning even if it means the death of a brother, I don't understand how people can expect codes of morality into a personality that has none. like your a crim to the soul or not, but you cant be half in half out. there people out there being savage asf

Dont think this is an IC issue, cus again, it makes no sense.

Realistically snitching on another criminal org would burn so many bridges and contacts for your org, poison your reputation as a reliable partner and an organisation someone can respect, that it would almost never be worth doing, wheras out here boys calling the cops for seeing a few tables going, because almost all criminal contacts are NPCs so theres little consequence. frankly i find it NRP/Play to win.

An organisations locked down a chop spot, commiting half a dozen people, with heavies, a toolbox, tools and equipment worth 100s of thousands? wow, i cant compete with that. but hey i can call the cops on them and they can deal with it. Ruins roleplay just because people cant take an L.

Solid, Solid game design...

This has kind of been addressed with recent rule changes regarding LEO response to certain 911 calls
