Amendments to rule 4 (Deathmatching)

This is a hard no. Brawls aren't an issue on the server. You have two options; 1. Jump in the brawl and fight OR 2. Stay away from it and you'll only get hit from the odd miss-click due to GTA V's fighting mechanics. No one wants to take part in an emote brawl. Emoted fights are just silly, I don't want to be stood watching a brawl only to see someone get suplexed onto the pavement.

Sorry, but no.

 

Brawls and fist fights in bars, pubs and night clubs are extremely common. Restricting it behind "perms" is not a solution.

 

Restricting it to RP "only" isn't, either. 

 

If it's unrealistic and a kid beats down an adult with no RP and without trouble? That's already covered by the powergaming rules and I encourage you and anyone to report it.

 

We don't need to restrict things more and more.

As was elaborately explained above:

The simple and close-to-reality fighting mechanics are a core reason for many of us to roleplay exactly on this engine and not elsewhere.

 

As such, this option, being absolute core of the game design, has to be preserved- detailed roleplay has its space, but so must quick escalation when it's appropriate.

Emoted fights? What is this, IMVU?

Slash me plucked the blazing torch from Killconey’s grasp. He flung it at the face of the oncoming warrior. Matthias deflected it with his shield in a cascade of sparks and went after the horde leader. To gain a brief respite, Cluny pushed Killconey into Matthias. The ferret grappled vainly but was cloven in two with one swift stroke. Matthias stepped over the slain ferret, whirling his sword expertly as he pursued Cluny. Ignoring his unprotected back, Matthias failed to see Fang-burn stealing up behind him. The rat raised his cutlass in both claws, but, before he could strike, Constance had hurled the net over him.

 

Slash do do I succeed (yes/no) 

[Cocaine Capital]

Yea no thanks, I’d rather risk a 30 second fight script wise than wait 9 minutes roleplaying a fight completely through with each action. 

[Cartoonhead]

Nope, fine how it is. Emote once or twice to get it started then go ham.

God no, please no

[Hotwire]

No. Why do people have to keep restricting roleplay behind perms. There is already MORE THAN ENOUGH perms you need to go through for some good roleplay.
