Honestly, this is not just relevant if you want to roleplay within this type of roleplay. Roleplaying a legal character, it's equally important to keep a life outside of your work (faction) - No-one are cops twenty four seven, people have lives beyond what they do at work. I've always been impressed with people who can maintain decent faction work and still roleplay an ordinary joe when he gets home. I know for a fact that this is a sign of quality, more than length of the /me's you produce or how often you use an M4 as a cop.

" It's not ALL about the criminal aspect.
A mobster won't spend %100 of his time in criminal activities, either. Absolutely not. These guys often have a life to take care of - Wives, legal businesses, cars, dogs. They are regular people, just like me and you. They got to baseball games, they hang out in bars, clubs, and casinos. They have a life outside of their criminal activities. I can't stress this enough. RPing just the criminal side of things is a huge miss on the development of a proper, deep character. "


@Slipky Thanks for putting words on this, great guide.
