Suggestion Type: Change to the Rules

What is getting changed?: EHR1. Jobs that are able to take hits in the !hits menu are not allowed to be in a party.

Where does this need to be changed?: this makes no sense to why they can't be in a party.

as a Mercenary how are you supposed to be able to get paid to raid a base with other players if you can't be in a party.
ERR5. Raiders that want to raid together must be in an !party, and must advert Party Raid/Assist
this rule does not allow mercenaries to carry out a raid with another player since they can't be in a party. and if you are paying a mercenary to raid with you the mercenary should not be forced to go by himself since you paid him. they should be able to assist you in your raid that you paid them for instead of the mercenary going first then the player that payed him.

EHR1 also prevents the regular hitman job and the prohitman job from protecting your friends that you may be playing with or other people you are playing with since you can't be in a !party with them. this means that when you are playing as any hitman job you cannot defend/counter and RP actions that happen on your friend/players that you are playing with since you cant be in a party

instead of EHR1 it should just be redone to be "if you are in a party with players, you cannot accept hits from party members." to enforce this rule it could be a verbal for the first time if it happens again then it can be a warn for FailRp since you are taking hits from party members, and you could be telling them to place a hit on someone. for further enforcement it could lead to a job demotion if the behavior would be continued.

in the enforcement guidelines you say its to - To prevent hitmen from participating in party raids.

I don't see why this is here since you let Mercs get paid to raid someone and if they are getting paid to raid the player that paid them should be able to accompany them. but with the Rule ERR5 it would prevent the player that paid the Merc to raid with the Merc since they cant be in a party.

As a hitman you should be able to be inside of a party so that you can defend your friends from RP ACTIONS that happen to them and as a Merc you should be able to participate in a party to raid another base if you are paid to do it.

now im not saying the rule 100% needs to go I just think there should be a small change to it so hitmen can be in party's with players to have a more fun experience as the job.

Why is this a good change?: This would be a good change because it would allow hitmen to be able to defend their friends/players from others if RP Actions are happening to one of your friends. it would also let Mercs perform raids with the player that paid them to assist in that raid.

in the end I just don't see why this rule is here its a very vague rule that should be clarified more either in the DarkRP rules or in the enforcement Guidelines.
