Adding Extortion to the RP

[Geo_Zeus]

I was gonna put this up as a suggestion but I don't have a fully formed idea about it so I thought we could have a conversation about this.
I feel like a big part of the RP, namely extortion, is missing from the server. Since the civ factions are basically non-existent in RP and all other properties are owned by crime factions, obviously nobody is going to extort themselves.
Why do I care about extortion so much? I feel like it offers a golden opportunity for RP between factions. Simply put, Civ faction gets harassed by criminal faction in their property for money, other criminal faction comes in and offers protection for the civ faction for pay and you let the ball rolling on that.
Now, I was thinking that the civ factions in that scenario would have to be able to make good money which is the tricky part. You want to facilitate these RP opportunities with the main factor being the exchange of money but you also want the civ faction to be happy with the money they've made after they've paid for protection or they've been hassled by the criminal faction. That's gonna be quite the balancing act so I want to hear your guys' thoughts on how it could work out, if you find the idea interesting.

That's the fun part. If you have info or some sort of leverage to use on someone, you can extort them. Look at the Harleen Sinclair pk appeal if you wanna see an example of what happens if someone doesn't bend to demands on occasion. Simply RP it.

While I think y'all are right, I still would like to see more civilian factions and opportunities. Most of the time the server is Mafia vs Mafia which is fair and i'm sure many people like it that way but it could have way more depth.
