Alright, I'm going to ask who thought it was a good idea that people get outlawed when seen taking equipment from a corpse in a city?

There are few things more ridiculous in a city defense than people working with the tribunals getting outlawed because they're helping gather loot and take something out of a corpse, and then all the tribunal NPCs leave to go report the guy in the middle of the danger zone.

Come on, now. Seriously.

Can we get this kinda hogwash removed? Would it be possible have the cheek turned when anyone commits a crime in the group with a tribunal member? I know everyone is jolly in the naughty bits for spam NPCs when it comes to PCs fighting, but once in a while PCs like to get involved that aren't in a tribunal.

Honestly dude if a cop walked up and saw you rummaging through a corpse would he say "oh nothing to see here move along." Maybe in Detroit. but not where I am from...I think its a valid law....You could however use a more subtle way of removing the items. If there is no corpse there is no stealing. Figure it out.

I have not once been questioned by a cop while I was rummaging through a corpse.

I am pretty intimidating, though.

If you're getting things from your own corpse, it's not against the law, so I'm a-okay with this law.

Well, then you guys make my brain hurt, but I'll deal with it. This is completely arbitrary, but if it's the common opinion, $%*( it.

Can we at least have it so people grouped with tribunal members aren't outlawed for horse*@#&? Thanks.

Didn't someone propose a deputizing system? A temporary, tribunal granted law immunity?

It has been proposed and denied multiple times.

At least give all members the ability to pardon ONLY allies.

That should help somewhat.

Annoying. Putting half-conceptualized systems in the game, letting them remain half-#$@%ed for years until they reach some semblance of being fully realized...well, it kind of blows balls until it's all done.

This should have been something that coincided letting NPCs go into countries you're at war with, because it's #$*% ridiculous to let the numbers involved get exponential when it comes to invaders, but let silly things such as helping the defender keep people out of the fight.

I'm beginning to see as I play that tribunals are really the place to be, and it kinda sucks.

Right now, however, I want to go pilfer some Detroit corpses.

I hate you, but this is a good plan
