Clarification on aiding rules

[INFERNO]

I've seen people aiding anyone and everyone and calling it "alliance", hence this needed a clarification.

 

What's aiding?

 

The act of helping, someone on something is aiding.

 

 

The below rule is applicable for every single sit be it a turf, be it a shootout, a smuggle, a weed field or what so ever.

 

 

You are ONLY allowed to aid/help your OWN GROUP MEMBERS or to the SCRIPTWISE ALLIED GROUPS and their members. You do not help ally of your allies. You do not help based on backup request unless and until the help requesting person is from your group or ally scriptwise with your group.

 

 

 

Punishments will be very harsh if you help someone not in your Group or ally scriptwise with your group, base will be random aiding and punishment can go upto group point deduction as well if the rule break is severe.

 

 

Some common scenario:

 

 

X calls backup on walkie-talkie, the channel has allied group of X as well as non allied groups of X as well.

 

ONLY the allied group shall respond, if the non allied group responds, it's going to be treated as random aiding and punished accordingly.

 

 

 

 

This is a rule clarification and not up for debate, everyone should keep it in mind, especially group owners should take responsibility to make this rule clear to all the members.

A wise man once said ''It's an RP server - theoretically you shouldn't have to put allies in group relations at all''

Suppose a group which doesn't exist scriptwise has formed an alliance in-character wise with an existing scriptwise group, now if the existing group requests help from the non-existing group through roleplay means would that be also considered random aid?

What about aiding a law enforcer , an emergency service provider or innocent civilians for that matter?

[INFERNO]

Yes, it's still random aid, the script for alliance exists for a reason.

 

And if that was not in existence then what you said would have not been concidered random aid.

SA-PSC § VII.8. Providing aid to a Peace Officer

From now and onward, only off-duty law enforcement officials are permitted to provide aid to on-duty law enforcement officials who appear to be in distress. Anybody else may not interfere in the scene or will face criminal charges.

 

Above is as per IC.

 

 

Let's see OOC, 

 

2 men are attacking someone IRL, would you you dive in? No, you won't risk your life from someone you don't know.

 

Then why would you try to help a random civilian? That's going to concidered as random aid.

 

 

EMS/SAPD as per the state law, you don't aid any EMS in trouble off duty only if you are off duty official cop, you may help other cop in trouble.

 

 

Any other help, say FD, EMS or Civilian will be random aid.

Also asking help from a person in SAPD and SAFMD in an turf defense is theoretically bullshit.

To clarify / amend some things here:

• Person A is only allowed to aid another person B or a group C if person A has active affiliation or connection with either person B or group C
  • That means, you can't drag a random person from the street just to help you in a turf
  • That also means you can't just jump into a shootout anywhere, if you're not affiliated or connected to any party in that shootout

The whole point of the rule is to prevent nobodies from joining shootouts. We got a video where some group took newbies (literally level one players) and had them assist in turf. That's just malicious.

 

And lastly, aiding by anybody is prohibited in petty situations such as a traffic stop. When would an organized crime family invest resources and risk public attention?

• When a large amount of drugs or weapons is in question (such as your member in risk of being frisked whilst having large quantity of drugs or weapon cases on him)
• When rival group or police are about to raid your HQ which contains large arsenal of weapons or drugs
• Any other such large scale situation where if you don't intervene it would result in a major loss for your group
