The Bluff is safe if your are not dumb
[QUOTE=SkyWookie;6113776]Bluffs has little police presence you are right, which is why the crime is so high. Maybe you just got lucky, I've had thugs run after my car with guns drawn in an attempt to carjack me.
Police barely go thru the bluffs at night, too dangerous for them. There's only 2 reasons to go to the bluffs after dark, pussy and drugs. I've made many a trips over the years and.
I know every time it's dangerous, but the thrill of the chase wins out.[/QUOTE]I've been mongering through the bluff all the time from regular day hours to as late as 3 AM on a regular basis for about 2 years now and never had any issues. Same rule as any other area, just don't draw attention to yourself.
I have said it before and will say it again. I'm not sure how the bluff was back in the day, but today's bluff is practically harmless and completely safe for someone who is cautious and aware of their surroundings. The worst I had to deal with in the bluff were dealers looking at me with a mean mug, granted I drove up in down their street like 5 times in a matter of 2 hours mongering (rookie move) but nobody is likely to do anything to you, especially if you know how to blend in.
But as a golden rule, always carry protection no matter if you are in an area with a bad reputation or deep in a quite suburban neighborhood, danger is everywhere.
Admin Has Already Called It
[QUOTE=Wleakr;6117201]...Ultimately, it's Admin call. But this site has been operating for some 20 odd years with pretty much the same rules since day 1. A LOT has changed. It may be time for the guidelines to reflect that.[/QUOTE]As the present rule states. It's not allowed. Actually forbidden.
Only thing that's changed is guys who were once totally in the closet have now opened the door and has at least a foot outside of that closet. This is simple. Just follow the rules. Report those that don't.
Stay safe out there and happy hunting.
