Please stop trying to NPC steal

I have played 3 games so far as civilian and in each game I have had a couple of other players trying to steal NPCs from me before I take them to the escape. I get it, you want points but all it does is delay escape. On one a occasion Michael was able to kill a priority because the other person was in the mini game with them trying to take them away from me.

I really hope this doesnt become a meta thing to do. There should be zero reason why someone needs to take an NPC from you. If you know where the exit it is, use VOIP.
