UrdnotWrex 94 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) -1 How often are auto-hits even placed on the same person? Once every several hours at most? Seems fairly inconsequential, and I don't see any justification for why hobos would get special treatment. Edited April 23 by UrdnotWrex Link to comment

Are their arms so weak they couldn't have stolen one? We should then also restrict automatic rifles to the police and distinct classes/jobs, since the average man couldn't hope to afford one. Same excuse for hobos not getting rifles. Doesn't make sense and I don't get all the pushback. Lvl 1 citizens can have an RPG if they want but hobos are to weak to hold a rifle. Link to comment
HtmlRoot 61 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 4 hours ago, IAreGunner said: Hobos should not have a larger weapons. There hobos Well, technically that assumes that homeless people cannot somehow obtain access to rifles. In fact, there are articles online about homeless people selling illegally obtained rifles and other assorted firearms to people. Just take a couple of these for example:https://okcfox.com/news/nation-world/100k-in-stolen-guns-tools-found-in-underground-homeless-encampment-san-jose-california-theft-thief-equipment-hidden-bunker-coyote-creek-wool-creek-drive-suspects-arrested-charges https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/national-international/man-sold-two-rifles-to-boy-in-philly/145108/ Would it be uncommon for a homeless person to be brandishing a rifle versus a knife or a little handgun? Heck yea, but it doesn't mean it can't happen. Homelessness can be associated with various things, one of those things being a dumb broke criminal that recently got out of jail. People are and can become desperate in times of need. The whole "hobo's not having anything larger then a pistol or a knife" is stupid. It serves almost nothing. Hobo's can't raid, they can't commit crimes so why restrain them anymore then necessary? 4 hours ago, UrdnotWrex said: -1 How often are auto-hits even placed on the same person?

What mafia gang would put a hit on some random homeless person? Make sense to you? Didn't think so. Link to comment

Either way it proves my point that it makes zero sense in roleplay for homeless people not to somehow have access to bigger weapons. Link to comment

DarkRP Management Team Merk 320 Posted 11 hours ago DarkRP Management Team Share Posted 11 hours ago Denied______________________________ A hobo's whole existence revolves around annoying people and getting in the way, I would hardly expect them not to irritate the mob boss into placing hits on hobos to get them out of the way. Maybe they know too much? Bottom line is, I don't see this as a necessary change and the community feedback here seems to concur with this idea. ______________________________ Thank you for the time & effort you put into your suggestion!
