Delay "wanted" for suspects

[[RDSR] Roba]

I was thinking something distantly related to this the other day.

For my understanding, if you try to steal and get caught, you will receive wanted status. People often seem to use the OOB ramps to jump OOB and so evade the wanted status there, as no police will likely follow to there.

I'd like to see having "wanted" status having a rule of not allowed to PIT/Disconnect/go OOB/Hillclimb during the time. It's not very long time so it shouldn't be a huge problem for people to follow IMO.

The rules state leaving tracklimits in a way that it negatively affects other gameplay is not allowed (1.4.) - I would see this rule fit to include leaving tracklimits/hillclimbing while Wanted.

And I would see switching to COP only to get rid of Wanted status and then changing it back is most likely against rule 1.10.

I agree there's some trouble around the wanted system and this should be largely discussed here.

These are just my POV, and it's not like I'm reporting everyone who in my opinion break the aforementioned rules. I would like to have some TC admins clarify this without several different personal opinions.
