Bank / Jewelry Store Robberies
To initiate a bank or jewelry store robbery you must:
- Have at least 3 members involved.
- Receive permission from a staff member beforehand.
Rock & Water Evading
Deliberately abandoning your vehicle and hiding in or around rocks, shallow water, dense foliage, or similar terrain, or entering water/cover specifically to avoid being tased, detained, or lawfully interacted with by LEOs, is prohibited.
- Crashing intentionally next to a river or rocky area, then entering the water or running on rocks to avoid arrest, tasers, or pursuit.
- Running into dense foliage or leaving your body in inaccessible terrain to prevent lawful detention or interaction with law enforcement.
- Allowed: brief, realistic use of natural cover during an active chase is permitted when it fits believable roleplay, not when used to guarantee escape or indefinitely block lawful roleplay consequences.
- If an officer reasonably reaches your location or establishes detention, you must comply with roleplay outcomes.
- Enforcement: repeated or intentional rock/water evading will result in warnings, roleplay penalties, or staff action up to removal from the scenario or server.
