You already have to accept the frisk. You'll get the same outcome, just with extra steps and this doesn't prevent stalling at all.
Exactly. And stalling is also not allowed, therefore you can forum report that as well. This is just a closed loop - restricting one party will allow the other to abuse and vice-versa.
And in the end of the day we'll still all meet in the forum report section.
This doesn't solve anything.
And there's no exact definition for stalling, naturally, native English speakers will type much faster then, for example me, for whom English is the 2nd or even 3rd language. I've been accused for stalling numerous times, when the robber would type in the speed of a court stenographer, whereas I have to think over what I'm about to write,
I agree, but for example: The party that's being robbed can accept for the robbing party to take their items only when the robbing party has fully roleplayed the frisk. Realistically nobody is gonna take their time during a robbery, and whoever is robbing is already at a disadvantage because we are gonna text based server.

The last thing that's needed is a stupid RPG script, it never worked when SAMP had something like this way back in the day because it was (GASP) ABUSED. You're supposed to roleplay a CHARACTER not be hand fed by scripts that let you skip through all the hard stuff just because you feel someone isn't cooperating. 99.98% Of robberies are absolute fucking trash and speaking from experience, the only players who want to stall the robberies are the robbers themselves who make them last much longer than necessary. By taking someone out to the middle of nowhere and search every single item of clothing. I can assure you (most, as there are a number who genuinely stall) victims want nothing more than to be done with it as quickly as possible so they can get on with their roleplay. God forbid should the victim actually roleplay anything other than "/me raises their hands" and puts detail in their roleplay, they're instantly stalling. It's utterly horrible to experience and ruins whatever roleplay you had going on.
Please, for fuck sake don't make it worse by adding something idiotic like this.
It could be scripted in a way for the both parties to agree and to be roleplayed how it's supposed to. At the end of the day it is just a SUGGESTION.
And if you think the 99.98% of the robberies are trash and the robbers are the ones that are stalling then you probably never robbed anyone and you're just full of shit. And the victims who want to get the scenario done as quickly as possible, I assure you that's gonna happen. And the other part where people actually want to stall will do it, doesn't matter how fast they type depending if English is their first language (addressing the reply above). There's a clear difference between stalling and not stalling. Once again I think it could be scripted well enough so the abuse would be minimal.
And please before replying to this use your brain.

I find that a lot of robberies are sub-par which I've experienced occasionally during rp, giving no regards to using masks or being afraid of getting caught on camera etc. I typically liked the original way of how robberies were handled through rp between both parties involved, I personally don't think I'd like for anyone to just have access to my inventory and to take things without my permission as that could lead to a bunch of abuse amongst players. There'd have to be some sort of /acceptance command between both parties and even so that /acceptance could still be stalled either way until players agree with what's being taken within the scenario. I prefer the regular method of how robberies are handled within the server and for any abuse to be reported on the forums.
Things being taken away from you without your permission. That's literally how robbing someone works. There should be a command to accept the robbery but the part where the most stalling happens is when the other party needs to hand over the items.

How would adding a script for power gaming taking peoples items solve a rule breaking stall issue?
Perhaps there would be a command to request the robbery and the other party to accept it? And then you can take their items manually throughout the roleplay.

I'm sure this would lead to heavy abuse, because it is less risky. And it would make robbing someone using an M4 assault rifle and a sports car even more convenient.
I'm sure there would be a way to make it non (less) abusable. And at the end of the day you can forum report any rule breaking.

Why?
Might wanna re-read what I said above.

Like the title says, it would be nice if there was a robbing script added where you can take items from another player yourself. It is a common thing that in almost every robbery scenario back in the day people would stall on purpose so I think this would be a good idea to prevent that from happening.

Robbing Script

Never said you're full of shit because you disagree with the idea, everyone is to present their own opinion and that's what the topic was made for. You're full of shit if you think almost all the robberies are basically shit roleplay. Also never said that the roleplay experience for the victim is amazing, obviously nobody wants to get robbed lol. You're just bashing the whole idea of robberies at this point which has nothing to do with the topic. Roleplaying a robbery is a part of someones roleplay, nobody is forcing you to go rob people if you find it boring. Once again, people can disagree with the idea, but please don't bash the whole roleplay around robbing because of the few of yours shitty experiences, that's what you're wrong about.
