Hello, sorry for my delay in input, I'm one of the staff members who discussed your PK with Winchester before it occured, while you cannot forcibly mug for money there is no rule prohibiting the asking of money, the mugging rules specifically state the following.
7. You may only kill the victim if they DO NOT comply with your demands. Victims that comply are to be left unharmed.
9. There are several ways you may initiate a mugging, the following actions can be considered initiation of a mugging
- Holding someone at gunpoint with the intention of mugging them
- Holding someone at gunpoint and ordering them to drop cash / items
10. When can you kill someone in a mugging for it to be considered a PK?
- You must FIRST, properly initiate a mugging (See Mugging Rule 9.) (Mentioned above)
- They attempt to flee while you have them at gunpoint/fear rp. (Does not apply if you disengage fear rp. See fear rp rules)
In terms of your situation, You were being mugged. And chose to run away, where you were then killed. This would fall under the circumstances of Breaking "FearRP" during a mugging and paying the price for such an act. Which happens regularly on the server if an individual has an insufficient grasp on the rules as mentioned.
FearRp Rules mentioned will be listed here
1. While under fearrp it's recommended you oblige by the commands of your captor, if you attempt to escape or pull out a weapon to fight back but are killed that would display a disregard for your own safety, a calculated risk you took which failed, resulting in your PK. (In some circumstances a PK does not apply, view pk rules for more information.) This means it is NOT a rule violation to break fearrp but if you are killed while breaking it there is a possible IC consequence of being PK'ed.
3. If you're holding someone under Fear RP and issue them orders/warnings not to do something and they disobey you may kill them. However, one single warning/order will not suffice, multiple warnings in a very short time span will also not suffice, you have to give them adequate time to react.
As far as I'm concerned. And as I stated to Winchester during the discussion, When it comes down to the rulings on the matter I believe this situation calls for a PK, While I am not an administrator, judging from the circumstances I believe anyone else would've been killed in the same situation as you when running from an armed mugger and expecting not to be killed.
Again, my apologies on the delay. And I'm only giving my input as I was directly involved
