Not sure if this has been covered or is too IC. With the brawl code, when you get the message that things are going to far, are you crim flagged if you proceed?
Does it become a coded fight?
At that point, the hit command won't work any more. If you want to keep going, you have to 'kill' the guy.
So, yes, you will get crime flagged, and it does become a coded fight.
