You have plenty of time to get in contact with the relevant judical authorities to arrange a chat then, don't you? Perhaps seek out those who are above and you will find your answers? For a turf gang with alledged 'Good RP', you aren't very creative when it comes to getting answers to your questions.

In all seriousness, as others have mentioned, Find out within RP. Sometimes gangs push their luck, and get steamrollered by the Law. It happened with Grove, now its happened with Vagos. Life doesn't mean Life. If you actually show a good RP standard and stand out from the rest of the crowd who don't provide good RP, then I'm sure you will be able to get out and enjoy your time on the character.

One of the few hostage takings ive enjoyed, keep up the good work

Hi there, I’m commenting on this from a player perspective, as I was involved, not a staff perspective. Quite frankly, the notion that police arrived and started shooting at the vehicle is ludicrous and laughable. You can hear from both my own and Smith’s reaction, that shots were quite clearly fired at us. I rolled up to the seen in the marked Skoda, and immediately got shot at. I’d like to advise against this in the future, as in my opinion it contravenes rule (G1.2), as myself and other officers were shot at with no quality roleplay having taken place before hand. Another incident of this is during the second police chase, where you were caught, when again, you decided to fire apon officers with little to no RP. I would encourage you to try and improve this in future, as it is not enjoyable for anyone. I just wanted to clarify that police didn’t in fact just show up and start shooting. We shot back after being shot at. Please ensure your facts are correct before accusing police of malpractice and not valuing the lives of their own hostages. Whilst I’m here I may as well clarify police procedures regarding primary weapons. Within roleplay, primary weapons are always stored in the boot of a vehicle. Unless an officer is in the passenger seat and consciously retrieves it on the way to a scene and “keeps it on their lap” then officers must go to the rear of the vehicle to retrieve it. Many criminals in the past, have been clever enough to take the police vehicle, as well as the officer, to ensure they get the primary weapon. Surely it’s common sense that police would keep their primary weapons in the weapon safe in the boot of their vehicle? You obviously knew he had one, so why not cover all angles, like a lot of other criminals do, and take the car? (yes I understand he takes it out as a result of the animation occurring when getting out of a vehicle, but it is immoderately put away as there is no reason for it to be out of his weapons locker when he is refuelling his car) One last thing @Sir Liam, to explain why he was in Sebastian Smith’s car, is because he was online as Sebastian Smith at the time. I am unsure why the in-game name has been listed as “Harold Sinclair”, as he wasn’t online as him. They’re is no foul play there from @TahmCameForTea. In regards to the name provided when processing (Harold Sinclair), I believe he was spoken to by a member of staff afterwards who made him aware of the rule break regarding the character separation of providing the name of one of your other characters to the police. So count this as dealt with as he was actually on as Sebastian Smith. any questions feel free to fling me a DM

Its clear that 'Benji Kortovic' (ID 4) did not comply with the simple demands of his attackers, when clearly outnumbered. He did in fact have a Vintage Pistol on his possession at the time of his death, and therefore he will be receiving a 1 Day Ban, for (G2.4): (G2.4) Value of Life - At all times you are to value your life, if you are clearly outnumbered or at an obvious disadvantage you should comply with demands. Few words of advice for yourself though @Haza. Whilst I understand your demands were simple, 'Hands up, drop your gun', followed by 'drop your gun' x 250 for the next five minutes, isn't exactly the captivating roleplay we all set out to provide. Yes, the other party didn't want to play ball. There are other ways to get around this. Try and be a bit more creative in the future. Furthermore, can we stop with the constant 'I have this all on bodycam', that was mentioned 4 or 5 times by yourself during it. We all know what you're trying to insinuate with this, and whilst its not quite a threat to report, its definitely verging on 'ruleplay', or using the OOC rules to your advantage in character. You should also not allow the fact the other gentleman was breaking OOC rules to interfere with your In-Character decision making. Lastly, I commend your efforts of quickly shutting down one of your associates who said 'FailRP' mid-way through the situation. However, shortly after, you broke character yourself on the radio, when you asked for one of your friends to call an admin in OOC. A little bit more consistency on this part would be apprieciated. Action Taken: Benji Kortovic - RPUK CharID : 29893 - 1 Day Ban, G2.4

Firstly, we do not have a rule prohibiting VDM. We DO have a rule prohibiting RANDOM VDM (RVDM - G1.2). The way in which the gentleman here used his vehicle, was in no way random. You left your truck unlocked, he got in it. You then proceed to draw your pistol, aiming at him, and without audibly saying anything (atleast from what I can hear), proceed to shoot through the windshield, less than 2 SECONDS after you drew your pistol. Had you killed this gentleman, I would deem that to be RDM. You have a gun pointed at him (albeit briefly), and are standing infront of his rather heavy lorry. Of course he is going to run you over. That is not a breach of the RVDM rule. Next time, give him a decent chunk of time to comply, or don't stand infront of his truck. I'd also encourage you to heed the warning about what could have been an act of RDM from yoursel @eTron. You did not give him a fair amount of time to comply before attempting to kill him, nor did you audibly speak to him (from what I can hear) before shooting him. Just because things don't go the way you expect, and you are left feeling a bit embarrased, does not give you the right to clip your footage and look for any possible rulebreak that MAY have occured. Reports should only occur in cases where there is clear wrongdoing, and/or grief called by one of the parties. Filing reports as a result of things not going your way is detrimental to the server as a whole, and if everyone did it, would waste a hell of a lot of the staff team's time. Report Denied

In the video we can hear you breathing, and using your controller, indicating that your microphone is picking up sound, yet we don’t hear you say anything at all? How is that possible? Surely had you been speaking to him, your mic would have picked it up, like it did your breathing?

@eTronDid you actually say anything to this gentleman? From the mic input on the video I hear no communication from yourself to the other individual. Just you pointing your weapon at him and shooting at him
