Name of Character: Giovanni Scampi Character ID: 178129 SteamID: STEAM_0:1: 163802953 Your Discord ID#: _lordsorbet Date of PK: 12/3/2025 Reason for PK: Breaking FearRP/Failed Retaliation Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: FearRP Rule 6: If the person with the weapon puts it away or turns his line of sight (Meaning the user has turned completely away and is not even slightly facing you. Usually at an angle of larger than 90 degrees), fearRP becomes null and you may take the window of opportunity to retaliate with little to no risk. (Does not apply if multiple weapons are pointed at you) This might be a visual thing, but his gun was on safety for me, so I didnt know that I was under fearRP. Thats why I retaliated, I would not have risked it if I had known I was at risk for PK. If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/lF83tDCTvLOrGMyGb?invite=cr-MSw3bTIsNDc4MzkwNjE0&v=101

Visual thing, as the mugger this guy deserves to be unPKed. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/lDjpiJI3aGl2xzn4G?invite=cr-MSxMcnAsMjYxOTQwMzA2&v=36 and how can you fucking have 0 bullets...

To a degree I knew this, however I didn't think cops were allowed to walk up to a buisness and call them a gang and say they're taking their gang down. But hey the more you know.

ok that would be so gay, heres the reasons 1. Rico can never be "extremely difficult", that's the entire point. It blew through factions. If you give these retards RICO they're going to light you up and burn you to the ground. It's suicidal. Especially now that the prosecutors arent retards. 2. I agree with this actually, but wiretaps are so far and few that it'll never be used. Furthermore, it'll still require staff to record on position. 3. "proof of income, banks" yeah no thats super retarded because you're all bajillionaires running hot dog stands. As soon as they get proof of income, you're cooked, and trust me when I say it's *so* easy to prove income is "too much". 4. no. you shouldn't have government consequences for "trying to take down a faction". dont be a retard and dont get caught. If you do get caught, dont be a retard and get a lawyer. If you do get a lawyer, dont be a retard and lose the case. If you do lose the case, dont be a retard and appeal. If you lose the appeal, dont be a retard and just take the L and shuffle around resources. At no time should the death of a don kill a faction, you should be cultivating replacements for every high ranking position. That way if you get touched, its not even a problem. The only way they can *actually* kill a faction is to kill your activity, and thats entirely based on *you* giving up. 5. PKing detectives i could see why you'd say that. PKing Officers, I could see why you say that. Pking the DAs??? No. You know why? Because theres not enough fucking DAs. If they get pked, then the entire fucking system goes down. As for detectives, there should be a standard that if you do *excessive* stuff to a faction like blatantly threaten them, and harass them, they should be able to kill you. I'm tired of seeing riggs do advertisements about SOS, someone dome him please. 6. No bribes for the DAs office or judges. It's hard enough dealing with people who are obviously pro criminal because everyone has a crim main. We keep them uncorruptable because its the best, most viable option. They *need* some semblence of impartiality so that the court system actually *works*. If anyone can bribe their way out, everyone just sells a suit and bribes their way out.

-1 Especially to PKing cops. Imagine some random ass officer sees a Capo open carrying or something, and arrests him. Now that entire faction can dome that officer, for doing his job? The responsibility to not get fucked up is on the Capo not committing a crime openly, not on the officer to simply ignore it. Also, not every cop knows who is and isn’t a capo at all times. Meantime, judges and ADAs being incorruptible is 100% necessary. If judges could be bribed with how few there are, nobody would ever go to jail for anything, ever.

A detective came to SOS the other day and called us a gang and said he's going to take down our shitty gang, PK got denied. But I did get told that we're a known gang and it's their job to take us down so there is no wrong doing at all. However, I can't say we're a criminal org or PD would be all over my ass.

RICO shouldn't, and doesn't, need to return because, as others have said, it is simply too broad and powerful. This was the reason it was removed in the first place (among other issues with the FBI at the time). Instead, there should be systems or processes added to place that supplement the OOC rules to verify the integrity and reliability of evidence so that the hard work detectives do don't get voided at the last minute because of suspected metagame or powergame. Good place to start may be verifying with UA, before thorough investigations begin, that a certain confidential informant is actually a long-term player that would have realistic knowledge of a faction's high command identity/activities instead of an ordinary member with a mere grudge, or a new member with no knowledge of what they're really doing.

All Im saying is, I've only been arrested on purpose and that has been a total of 2 times in 7 months and I have trafficked $100,000,000 plus in drugs and somehow I've never been arrested. Boring as shit.

Every faction has pretty much one consolidated goal: hire as many fucking retarded people as possible to grind bricks for the Don. They do this with limited consequences. You work the door for half an hour without any rp, maybe even less than that, then you're an oil bitch for a week or two before you get into drugs. These factions hire and don't punish some of the most questionable individuals that get caught every 10 min doing shit. The staggering amount of people who operate with little to no operational security, die, and come back in a week is mind blowing. Before this gets mass downvoted hear me out please. This isn't just a "buff pd nerf crims" post. If thought out and implemented correctly it can bring an increase in faction rp quality, gives prenatal Tylenol victims something to do, and ideally it would give dons and high command more faction management tools. 1) Implement a system for faction high command to control who gets access to drugs and/or guns. If we're gonna invite a chance that a faction can take some significant damage from poor opsec, it's best that they get the ability to pick and choose who of their people can partake in the activities most vital and dangerous to their continued existence. The meat and potatoes of a RICO case is establishing that a criminal enterprise exists and a pattern of crimes from the past present and planned future crimes. In order for a RICO case to work, you'd have to have fucked up very severely as the bar to prove them is pretty high. Therefore if you're gonna mass hire muscle, best make sure there are tools to allow management to at least macro manage these guys. 2) Have bingus cook up the RICO act. Straightforward stuff. He'd have to weigh out the balance to ensure it's not powergame rape nonsense but still give it teeth. If you're gonna hire a fucking mong white shirt with a bat who selects hands instead of keys every time to then go represent your group in drug deals with potential lasting consequences, that's literally on those who hire. Rather than trying to run a zerg of brick grinders, rp with your new hires and thoroughly feel them out and train them. If the cops are so far up your ass that they're able to prove a RICO case against you that's literally a consequence of poor operational security. Bank sharing en masse? That's literally on your people. Murders in broad daylight? That's literally on your people. Your guys wearing your colors while felony maxxing in broad daylight (and probably doing it in your company car)? That's literally on your people. Having properties owned by a middleman to keep heat off the Don is good shit. Having businesses run by people not the Don is good shit. There are so many measures to take to prevent a RICO case that if it happens and totally dunks on your people it's not the fault of the police and courts for ripping your nuts off. 3) Da Fedz Ah yes I know what you're thinking: isn't this basically detectives+? Kind of but the difference would be that they explicitly would be limited in numbers (call it 5 for sake of balance) but given more legal powers to punish lazy or stupid factions. Being able to get records requests faster and easier, being able to expedite processes of seizure and suspension, and charges they bring coming with some significant fines and jail time for those on the other side of it. Will they be weaponized against disliked factions? No because it comes with the caveats: no former don characters, no characters over senior associate at all in any faction, preference for gov mains, and they aren't allowed to press city level charges only state (and possibly fed?) charges. The balance comes from their numbers. It forces the group to need to be on top of their shit and cull people who aren't doing their job. It would be meant for only the best of the best. The idea in my head is that there needs to be a legitimate threat to factions that aren't careful and enforcing careful operations. Having outside hit contracts, enforcing decorum, and being generally slick gives you nothing much to worry about. But opening yourself up for a colonoscopy should result in one being scheduled whether you want it or not. Thoughts?

luckily we live in bingus law and he can make it so applies only to the business bank account given to DOC yes you should fear your life if you single handedly arrest a mafia boss valid point nah if you want a high profile arrest you should face high profile problems it’s mafia rp bribery should be an active part of the game rather than paying irl money to get rid of charges

yes in fact police do need to be stronger when it comes to policing and taking down criminal organizations but in turn police/judges/DAs need the fear of god aswell. Here’s my suggestion: Add back rico make it extremely difficult where you gotta run the faction like a retard for it to even be possible. (connected banks, high ranking member snitching for ic reasons, etc) Increase phone/building wiretapping by adding a physical item that can be deployed and hidden bigger legal hoops to jump through (registered business banks, proof of income, maybe an aggregate tax rate) this can also bring the possibility of tax fraud being an actual crime. tldr be a smart criminal and loose lips sink ships Government consequences for trying to take down a mafia org: Detectives/Officers/DAs that go after (arrest, warrant, etc) a caporegime or above (felony+) are pk active to the faction. DAs and Judges can now be bribed to drop charges or throw a case (10k for every year) tldr you wanna rp like your taking down the mob be prepared to fear for your life and this is america home of bribery.
