# Player Theft

**»** All robberies must be conducted in a realistic way with a proper IC reason as to why you are robbing the player. Players may not force other players to withdraw money from a bank, sell a house, or sell a vehicle.

**»**&#x50;layers robbing players who are clearly civilians will not be allowed unless in a very discrete location.

● *<mark style="color:blue;">For example: You find a player in an alley by themselves. This player can be obbed because he is in a place where no one will see the crime.</mark>*

\\

**»** Criminals robbing players who are clearly other criminals (Wearing distinguishable identifier such as a specific piece of clothing/In a known criminal area/Carrying Illegal weapons/Clearly in the middle of committing a crime) will be allowed in less discrete areas as long as the proper escalation (running in saying hands  is not proper escalation) is done and evidence through videos.

**»** Scamming players IC’ly is not a rule break. It doesn't matter the item or quantity.

● *<mark style="color:blue;">For example: Someone wants to sell their car for 100K and you hand them the  cash at the bank and they make a run for it.</mark>*

\\

**»**&#x4F;OC fraud or scamming a player out of their items is completely forbidden. If someone gives an OOC assurance that you won't get scammed ICly.

● *<mark style="color:blue;">For example: You want to buy a car from someone for 100K and they /pm inform you that he won't be scamming you in game. This not only goes against the scamming rule but also metagaming.</mark>*\\

**»**&#x4B;idnapping & Hostage Taking: Before kidnapping or taking someone hostage, you will need proper RP to do so Kidnappings must be realistic with a proper roleplay reason prior to doing the kidnapping. Also you can’t take any hostages in NCZs and also you can’t bait EMS and take on duty EMS as a hostage.

● *<mark style="color:blue;">For example: Player A robbed Player B, 5 minutes later Player B notices Player  A at a shop, Player B and their friend put a gun to Player A and force them into a car. This would be a valid reason to kidnap them.</mark>*

● *<mark style="color:blue;">Player A doesn't agree with something that player B said, Player A gets  frustrated by this and decides to kidnap them. This would not be a valid reason.</mark>*

**»** Taking a player around the corner or in an alleyway does not require any OOC consent  from the individual. However, if you have to force them in a car or bring them to a location this is classified as kidnapping.

● *<mark style="color:blue;">For example: You put a gun to someone's back and tell them to go around the corner to rob them.</mark>*
