Random Death Match (RDM)

Random Death Match (RDM) is killing someone without any Valid or Realistic reason. Killing someone while they are AFK and can’t react or defend themselves is also RDM and Force-RP. Also, killing someone without initiation is considered RDM.

Killing a Player for no reason randomly with no intention to roleplaying the incident. Prior interaction with a player and a valid exchange MUST be established before you can kill someone.

Our health system in FoundationRP is unique and a player will become impaired before fully dying. This allows fist fights or melee weapon fights to happen without fully “killing” someone as well.

If you choose to fight or kill, you must have a logical reason to do so. “Would my character fight over something like this?” should be your first thought. Always think before a fight! Even though it doesn't break the rules, crimes in the city don’t go unpunished by the police and assault is a hefty charge.

Example of RDM (Random Death Match):

Subject A sees and walks over towards Subject B (who he has never seen or spoken to) and shoots them, downing them and leaving them to be. THIS IS CONSIDERED RDM

Example of a Valid Interaction & Initiation:

Subject A has had a prior interaction with Subject B where Subject B is in a rival gang and both Subjects have had X Y Z altercation and threats being thrown around repeatedly and publicly around other people. *Time Passes* Subject A is with his Group (#) and they see Subject B who had shot their friend and fled the scene instantly. Subject A & His Group initiate over phone or face to face: "You shot my friend! You will pay!" then Subject A decides to fire upon Subject B taking him out.
