Allow KOS lockpicking for prisoners

[Messenger 14]

Suggestion: Allow wardens and other PD members to kill prisoners who are lockpicking prison doors. 

 

Reasoning: Not being able to kill prisoners who are lockpicking doors is silly and not common sense. Why should we have to wait until after prisoners have escaped a cell to kill them? Barely anyone knows about this rule. If one doesn't know about this rule, it is very easy to rack up an mRDM charge--that's no good! Thanks, I love you!

As a full time Mayor who LOVES filling the jail up while taxing everyone to death, I agree with this. As a citizen who gets arrested and already has to rely on luck by spawning with a lock-pick, then hope there are no cops near the jail for the duration of lock-picking, THEN have to make it all the way to the pd lobby just to be able to shoot any pig that looks at me, I disagree with this. Lock-picking can also be used to keep a cop in the jail by lock-picking, pretending to escape, not leaving the cell and waiting for the cop to lock it back up then rinse and repeat. I think the rule should stay because the inmates already have so little hope to make it out. Alternatively I guess an inmate who just has a lock-pick out could stand there and wait for a cop to leave, but the cop would stay and wait for them to lock-pick, creating the time wasting effect I mentioned before. Leave the rule in so inmates have that glimmer of hope and it keeps it fun for them.

Not only do I feel this rule would likely be misinterpreted as "Shoot anyone who has a lockpick in Jail Cells," I prefer the comedic aspect of someone picking open their door multiple times. Eventually, the cops will stop checking... and that will be the time to escape!

-1 you can just arrest them, it's not that hard. like wohmi said it would be abused. I see no need to approve this but let's see what the community says.

I mean, honestly who cares if it gets abused. You got yourself in jail. If police wanna abuse you let them. Its adds more roleplay to the police/criminal side. 
 

play the game and go get a raiding party and raid back the pd for your sweet revenge instead of crying like a loser because the popo in gmod abused you in the jailcells.

If someone is genuinely guarding the prison then theres literally no way to successfully lock pick your way out unless Stevie Wonder is the guard.

i dont hate the suggestion, just the feds.
i simply disagree with the suggestion.

sorry i could have phrased that better.

if there is someone there to shoot them, then someone is there to arrest them and can simply do that.

This idea isn’t something we need on the server and causes more issues for staff.

This is not a necessary change and would likely end up causing issues.
