It was a question brought up and I couldn't do answer it and neither could anyone else and there were many different opinions. Say you were an innocent and destroyed a health station, then get shot in the back not realizing its the detective shooting you and you kill them. Is that considered RDM?
No because you were defending yourself If a Detective damages you, you are allowed to shoot back at the Detective without it being RDM
It would not be. You are allowed to kill a detective in self defence. As long as the detective shot and damaged you first you would be fine.
Well if someone is shooting you have every right to kill them. Detective or not it's self defense. Doing that though usually makes the server hunt you down getting you a karma ban. At least from what I have seen. (Not like I have gotten karma banned for defending myself from everyone who shot me before.
