I'm not pro-metagame, but you also have to be careful with removing some of the contextual information.

Conversely, this could lead to more @ related calls to check for job changes mid way.


Anyone got a logical way to solve this issue for the coding side?

A cooldown wouldn't be all that useful, because mispellings happen and then you'd be stuck with them.
No way to check job title to determine criminal or not.

Perhaps we could have a tag to the clothing worn that hits on the nameplate
IE if in citizen clothes, card displays "Wearing plain clothes"
If also wearing kevlar "Wearing bulky plain clothes."

The issue I have is, if a bank robber showed up wearing full armor and had high power weapons, his two piece suit isn't going to conceal that fact.  Without a card, the player has no warning that they are dealing with someone who is obviously armed and armored.  (To elaborate, Yes guns show on back, when I say "armed and armored" I mean it in the sense of you can tell when someone is dressed for combat, 90% of the time)

Remember, it wouldn't be meta to note that they are wearing a kevlar vest in most cases.
