    Hey, my first one of these. Here goes nothing.

    1) So first off, as far as I've ever been aware, 'red is dead' is a server rule thing. Meaning, cop or not, shooting a red player just means you are not RDMing. However, you could still be violating APD use of force policy depending on the situation. Ultimately, to answer your question, I would need to know the specific situation occurring when you were downed/killed. Use of force is often looked at on a case by case basis, as the totality of the circumstances ultimately decide if it was a good or bad use of force. Generally speaking, if there is a gun fight going on, and an officer downs and restrains you for having a red name, I would not usually consider this bad form, since you are a potential (And from our usual experiences, probable) threat to the APD. This is certainly a common occurance for red names in vehicles, as you can't tell if the individual has a weapon without them getting out of the car, and it may be too late to act if they wait. As for the being held/restrained without a bounty, this too would depend on the totality of the circumstances. If the officers have some reasonable suspicion that you may have been involved in a situation, or pose an immediate risk, I would not fault them for holding you while the situation is being resolved.

    tl;dr for number 1: It ultimately depends on the totality of the circumstances for each given instance.

    2) If there has been substantial time between engagement and turning yourself in, then you should be considered non-evasive and non-aggressive. As for the role-playing being held up to the cop you killed, there is no NLR on Asylum, so there isn't anything particularly wrong with them holding that against you. And lastly, in regards to the firearm being seized, a general rule of thumb for seizing weapons is to seize a firearm when a suspect has charges that require a firearm to be committed (i.e. Manslaughter or Robbery) that they do not have justification for. So in this case, if the officer you killed is present, and can attest to the fact that one of your manslaughter charges was against an officer, then I see no issue with the firearm being seized.

    I hope I've cleared up any confusion. If not, let me know and I'll help the best I can!

    Red is dead was always an issue with cops as a person that's in a group that is red my not have anything to do with what the group is doing. This is why when i played years ago it only applied to undercovers. I was always told if they are in a city and there's an active firefight with police its fair game but if someone's minding their own business you should try to initiate with them if they are wanted. As mentioned this is one of many different responses I've been getting about this issue not sure if there needs to be clarification further on it. If I'm un-armed driving or walking by an HQ and someone is getting processed the last thing I want and I'm sure others want to happen is to get ripped out of my vehicle or shot for no reason and sat in restraints for 5 minutes when I'm not wanted and don't have a weapon. I get the arguments on both sides but I thought our voice is are primary weapon? I heard other civs talking about this as well so I thought I would bring it up. There needs to be something written in stone. If I'm coming to turn myself in and I'm red I've been mowed down before i got there and denied a 50% decrease because i "didnt" turn myself in and they apprehended me. If its happened to me its happened to others im sure.

     

    As for the non-aggresive non-evasive. There a few constables that think there's a 60min timer people need to wait until they get a 50% decrease when turning themselves in. As long as they don't murder a cop next to me and turn themselves in I was always under the assumption they start at 50%. I don't see anything in the book about a timer. I'm not sure if its cops that are mad people killed them or they're  just making up their own rules.

     

    Thanks for the clarification so far.

    2 Questions here. Yes I'm using my in game civ experiences to ask these questions but its for when I'm on cop myself.

    1. A lot of cops are claiming red means dead now a days, I still haven't had a clear explanation as to if this actually applies to cops now. A lot of constables are claiming it does and a few LT's have given me mixed answers. I understand if I'm in a gang and they are attacking cops in a city if I've got my weapon out pointing it those cops and I am red to them I fully expect to get shot. A few times now I'm either driving by or have my weapon holstered in town and I just get unloaded on without a word said to me, held and restrained without a bounty and all i hear is you had red eyes or your affiliated even though I'm minding my own business. Just want some clarification so when I'm on cop I don't make a mistake. 

    2. If I've murdered a few cops, and turned myself in say 5-15 minutes later and RP that I was held up by another gang but "said" cop was one that I killed, can they claim I was aggressive even though at the time of turning myself in I wasn't and start my ticket at a full 100%? I also keep hearing that I "used" that weapon against a cop so they are seizing it. Even though it was an isolated incident with one cop, just because they know I used to it to kill them. I could have died and purchased another firearm but they are seizing it anyways. 

    Thanks in advance!
