Giving people the ability to do virtually anything they want to bystanders will not increase any forms of roleplay, it will only make it worse. It also doesn't make much sense for players to use /me upon taking damage, as it's only reasonable for them to retaliate.

That's why I believe our rule draft is optimal. The first section of the rule should act as a notifier to the players on the server - (this is pretty much what it means: "Don't be a nuisance to other players while driving your car") - and the second part simply specifies that, if you are intentionally trying to ruin another player's experience, only then will we take action.

As always, I'm open to being convinced, but at the moment I think this is the best way we can make the regulations surrounding Vehicles better.
