Suggestion Description:
Add an item slot to the inventory that is 'protected' and cannot be robbed by other players - only certain cosmetic and roleplay items (such as Polaroids or Custom Items) can be added to this slot.
Reason:
There are so many cool custom items or polaroid photos that add a lot of flare to different peoples characters and their roleplay while providing absolutely no benefit to another characters.
These items are often taken as 'trophys' by other players though for the pure purpose of griefing/annoying the other player.
My recommendation would be to add 1-2 slots that are visible and usable only to the player that can hold things like custom items or polaroids, it should not be able to hold anything impactful like guns, equipment, police badges, etc.
If a gang wants to carry their chain custom items and have them be stealable for RP, that's still possible, this is just an alternate for other items that are purely RP driven.
Additional Context:
Over the years I've dealt with this & had friends deal with it, I've had friends give me custom items or I've obtained custom items by completing some roleplay task and I'd like to keep them on me so I can flash them or display them but the second you have a disagreement with someone & they down you, they take it just to be an annoyance. It then often goes into a random storage never to be seen again no matter how much conflict RP you try to push.
For reference on my crim, the leader of the gang had his custom item ring stolen by a rival gang after they had some issue with us, we literally went to war over it and they just refused to ever put it up for offer or fight for it or even hold onto while online as a trophy, it just sat in their warehouse forever, giving us no realistic option to get it back. Eventually they all got perm banned for a slieu of other offences and it was never seen again and just kinda wasted.
I've had a Polaroid book with a bunch of photos stolen off me while I was on my cop after a random cop shootout when I was moving stuff from my PD locker to my house (I know I shouldn't of had it on me, but at the same time what hardened southside gang banger realistically wants 20 polaroid photos of me hanging out with friends?)
I've got a bunch of RP items I'd like to carry on me to use in RP to add flare to my character but they just sit in my locker or house never seeing daylight because I know that when I get shot down and lootboxed, it will probably just get stolen and it's very difficult to get them back.
It's also the first thing cadets get told in PD, "don't carry custom items because they will take them after a DT/Bank/Ambush" which kind of demonstrates how much of an issue it is.
