# Power Gaming

<mark style="color:red;">**Power gaming**</mark> involves using in-game mechanics or roleplay actions to gain an unfair advantage, preventing other players from interacting or defending themselves. This behavior restricts the other participants' ability to respond and forces an outcome in your favor.

**Examples of Power Gaming include:**

* <mark style="color:red;">**Talking on a radio**</mark> while cuffed, which is unrealistic.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Dropping items from pockets**</mark> while cuffed, which bypasses the limitations of being restrained.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Shooting through scuffed or non-existent walls/windows**</mark>, exploiting game mechanics.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Forcing someone to withdraw money**</mark> from their bank against their will.
* <mark style="color:red;">**Using a helicopter**</mark> to rescue a friend from prison, circumventing roleplay constraints.

**Avoid these practices to ensure fair and engaging roleplay for everyone.**
