| Place a Pickpocketing hit (not wack) Option | Started by: Unicorn on Aug 26, '16 16:37 |
Recently I have been mugged by my now arch nemesis MistyBlue.
It was a cold senseless pickpocket. No warning. In addition he flew away and left. I propose an award hit style based option for those in mafia who get mugged an don't have an option to fly to mug them back. The pickpocket hit option would essentially let others avenge their empty pants and have an award given to whoever finds and pickpocket's the pickpocket back. Example

awesome Idea, really like this. Especially for those times when money is no object, after all, Revenge is a dish best served cold. |

This is a great idea. I think we would see more PP and mugging happening too. |

I'm 100% behind this. In a RP type scenario, if you knew someone stole from you and couldn't react in time, more than likely you'd seek revenge either in the form of finding them later and getting your money back, or hiring someone to get it for you. As one of the most avid PP'ers, I'd *really* like to see this implemented. |

Another option is to private fly around until you find the guy. That's usually what I do! |

Splendid idea. Should improve the rate of more muggings, because I mean who doesn't like seeing someone get chased down after screwing around with the cash they stole? |

Yep I think this is a great idea too for sure! Would be very interesting to see this rolled out. Hope it does get added... |

Can you guys throw some numbers out so I can get a better grasp of this? |

I would suggest working it exactly like the existing Hitlist Squishy. People can place a PP hitlist for as much or as little as they want, paying extra to remain anon (perhaps 10k rather than 100k as its not killing). |

I love the idea, but I can't stop laughing at this bit;
Why would anyone warn you of the fact they wish to steal from your pockets? It defeats the entire purpose of what they are doing. And of course they ran away, any decent thief SHOULD run away before being caught. Otherwise, they aren't a decent thief. I understand that in this life people cry about being PP'd because of the massive loss of 5k cash (anyone crying about it being an attack is doing so just to be a pain in the ass, because you aren't actually harmed in the "attack"). That said, I do love the concept of hiring others to get the person back for you. |

Further to the comments about - I think the only real way this would work is if the person carrying out the attack does so in the fashion of Mugging, not Pickpocketing. So the target would still have to be within the normal mugging time frame from their attack, but is now open to attacks from ANYONE carrying out the Mug/PP hit. If that makes sense? Not sure if that's what people were going with already so thought I'd just make it clear that I feel it works best like that - if its possible to code such a thing. |

makes perfect sense. I think the whole idea is absolutely great. Although if there is to be a mugging contract available, it'd mean there needs to be 2 seperate lists. 1 for PPing the other for mugging back on behalf of a PP'd victim.
Not sure, however, if a mugging contract would really work given it's a short window of opportunity. Maybe if there's a toggle option (like the sponsor alert or a click box like on the OC page) where players can be notified when a "MUG!" contract becomes available it could become an amusing addition to the game :) |

I love this idea; I came here to suggest it, but saw it already existed. PP Hitlist, when someone is annoying you and you want them annoyed back without anyone dying. We could even call it the (S)Hitlist. |
