# Loot Boxing

Respecting others in roleplay leads to a more enjoyable experience for everyone - treat others as people instead of an NPC. Cops should not be treated as loot boxes.

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Robbing a cop is only acceptable under specific conditions.** 

You must have a pre-existing RP reason, such as being in a conflict scene, and cannot bait cops with the intention of robbing or shooting them.

Additionally, you cannot rob a cop if you take them hostage, you can only take their handcuffs if absolutely necessary.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
You can only rob a cop if you need to replenish your ammo, health, or weapons to continue an active conflict scene, or during a raid.

But, once you have taken what you need, you should leave the scene as quickly as possible, as more cops may be on the way.
