I have noticed while playing that with certain rules, there seems to be "grey areas" and unwritten rules amongst the community. So I would like some clarification on this.
For example, the rule under "Rebels/Mafia Rules" (rule 5) states that
"Just because you're in a underground team doesn't give you the right to raid or do anything you please".
Yet, an admin recently let the Corleone raid us for our contraband, because they could probably "hear it spawn money" (Worse off still, a friend got banned for breaking fear RP because he walked away from gunpoint as he had contacted an admin and wanted to wait for the admin to verify anything before continuing the RP) The problem with this is that if I am sitting in the apartments in the town, I am on the top floor, and all 4 doors are owned by 4 separate people, and I hear contraband spawn somewhere, it then gives me a legitimate reason to raid all 4 rooms just in case they have contraband. (Which seems fairly mingey and lol'y to me)
So hearing contraband spawn money is now a reason to raid, we have that screen shotted from an admin. The problem is that that being a thing isn't in the rules. I know it would be nearly impossible to document everything, but an attempt needs to be made to, just so people know where they stand. At the moment people getting banned really depends on what admins catches you, because another friend of mine recently got banned for random raiding when he could see the contraband in the persons room.
That's a real issue. So in my honest opinion, for what it is worth, I think the grey areas and the unwritten rules need to be cleared up. I think having clearer rules would in the future save people from getting needlessly banned due to poor communication for the staff team, or from misunderstanding ambiguous rules.
