If they stole your stuff in your base with a KOS sign, then it'd be fine because once they step in, it'd be valid to kill. However you don't mention a KOS so it could have been out in the open. You can't defend it if you're doing for example meth in the open. That would be considered "baiting". Waiting on what thicc says.

This would definitely make hitman jobs more active and possibly make people want to raid bases more.

This would be cool to see in the game. However, performance wise, not sure how the server would be able to handle it. There's also the fact that you gotta account for balancing with the economy. I don't think there's an addon for this, so it might have to be custom.

I'll see you soon bro, loved seeing you being around and you've always helped me. Thank you!

To my knowledge, there was no raid ongoing.

The main claim he has made is that they were raiding him, do you remember if this was true?

First of all, if I was rude in any time of the sit, I apologize. I examined logs and looked at the events. I told you that you killed 3 people for no valid reason. You told me they were raiding but even at that, You didn't have a KOS sign. I checked adverts and there wasn't any. You started arguing with me about 3 people isn't mass RDM. I told you again that it was and it's in the handbook. I offered to link the handbook for you to look for yourself, but you just talked over me. At that point, I figured it was no use trying to explain it a third time. I mentioned you'd be banned for 3 days and you went ahead and just left. As a result of you leaving the sit intentionally,from a staff members prospective, that usually means you're just going to come back and do it again. For future reference, I'd suggest putting a KOS sign specifically saying you would kill for raiding or being inside your base. Again, if I was rude, I apologize, but I went off what the logs show and that's what you're supposed to do for mass RDM because it looked like it was blant RDM. What I could have done better I guess is bring the victims and ask if they got RDM'ed by you to confirm it, but then again, no one reported it so I went off the intention of Mass rdm. There was only a report for Mass rdm. I told you also that you can report for RDM yourself if you were RDM'ed or damaged for no reason and I explained how to report.

 I was sent a clip of someone saying the hard R, but the name didn't seem to appear to show up. I'm not sure why that was. We discussed this in DMs on Discord as well.

Never trust online gambling. Only do it in person so you know it's not 100% rigged.

While it would help with unnecessary sits, I don’t think the solution would be to force PD to use the main entrance. Maybe a text screen or a sign in the lobby or alley to suggest checking that entrance as well? Maybe have the courtroom and hallway be public access, that way using the alley doors would be pointless and would open PD up to more RP scenarios, making the courtroom no longer a waste of space.  Builders can still block off the PD Cell door, and that would make sure all defenses would be built up stairs.  

I agree with this

I'll definitely try lol, see ya later bro you were really cool.

DarkRP Rule Questions

Raids can last how long?: Raids can last at a maximum time limit of 10 minutes.
If a player in your party dies whilst raiding, how long do they have to wait to come back and raid the same base again?: If a player in my party dies while raiding, they will have to wait a raid timer of 30 minutes before returning  to the same base to raid it again.
What initiates a raid?:  The second a player as sent /advert raid, a raid has initiated.
If no raiding tool is being used can the player steal the item from a base without an advert?: If no raiding tool is being used, the player can steal the item from a base without an advert, but only if they are job that allows them to steal and do not use any tools such as breach juice.
Give an example of a valid raid advert (type it as you'd type it in-game): An example of a valid raid advert would be "/advert raid" without the quotes.
If the owner of the base is standing outside on their base entrances sidewalk as you're about to raid but haven't announced a raid yet, can you kill them?:  The raider must do /advert raid before entering any type of combat for a raid. In other words, it is not allowed to kill the owner of the base before doing a /advert raid. However, if they are on the base entrances sidewalk after the /advert raid, the raider may kill the owner.
If you get arrested mid-raid can you return after your arrest?:  Once arrested mid-raid, the roleplay is ended between you and the person who arrested. Returning after you were arrested or interacting with the person who arrested you would mean you broke NLR. You need to wait for the raid timer to finish or for the raid to be adverted over.
If you get RDM'd are you allowed to kill the RDMer back without repercussions?: You are not allowed to RDM. If there is an RDMer, you should get a short video of it and report it in-game by typing @ <I was RDM'ed>. If there are no staff online at that time, you should report the rule breaker on the forums with a short and clear video proof.
A player punches somebody unprovoked and runs away, the player who got punched calls a sit - what punishment would you give the instigator?: The punishment I would give would be based on how many previous warnings the rule breaker has. Assuming this is their first rule break, I would ask them why they RDMed then give them a verbal warning not to repeat the action and explain to them why RDM is not allowed.
List all default Laws of The Land: 
- Raiding is illegal.
- Entities scannable by the contraband scanner are always illegal.
- Harming other players is illegal unless you are defending your base.
- Shooting dangerous weapons in public is illegal. 
- Laws must be enforced with AOS instead of KOS unless the Police Officers life is in danger or the player is wanted.
- Non-default Laws must be things that players have to go out of their way to do.
- Laws that are seen as baiting kills or arrests are disallowed.
- The Mayor can choose to make dangerous weapons legal or illegal when owned/held but no other weapon-based laws.
How many bases can you own per party?: The maximum amount of bases you can own per party is 2.
A player is refusing to co-operate with you in a staff sit, how do you handle the non-cooperative player?: First, I would freeze them to make sure they don't run away. If they're mic spamming I would ask them to kindly calm down and explain what the problem is. If they are ignoring what I'm saying to them, I would give them a gag and ask again to calm down. If the sit goes nowhere I would resolve it by giving them warning and a temporary gag/mute.
Can you punish a player for intentionally ruining others time, even if they say it's out of fun?: Yes, you can punish a player for intentionally ruining the experience for other players. Regardless if it was a joke or not, it is recognized as NITRP (No intent to role play). 
Give an example of a Staff abusing their powers and how you would handle it: A staff member was freezing players for no valid reason. The way I would handle this is I would get video proof of the staff member abusing and report it to a higher-up. Afterwards, I would confront the staff member and ask why they were abusing. I would also get video proof of their response.
A Mayor enabled a lockdown without reason and is refusing to turn it off, how do you resolve this?: I would ask why they would want the lockdown on for so long and explain that what they are doing may ruin the experience for other players such as police because they need access to go in and out of the PD. It would be annoying for them to have to unlock the doors multiple times. I would ask them politely to turn it off, if they don't listen I would verbally warn them.

Extra Comments:

I would like to suggest a "raid timer" UI on the screen similar to the "NLR" timer so new players know when they can raid again. I feel as this improvement would benefit the community by preventing as much confusion on when whether or not people can raid again or not. I had to fix a typo in the extra comments.
