In role-playing contexts, particularly in GTA 5 RP, NVL stands for "No Value of Life". This term refers to situations where a character does not take their current predicament seriously, such as when they know they can simply respawn at a nearby hospital. NVL is widely frowned upon by many RP communities, as it ruins the roleplay experience since characters no longer act the way they should in a real-life setting. The NoPixel server, for example, has a "Value Your Life" rule that requires players to act according to their personality and mannerisms when faced with a threat to their life. Violating this rule can result in a warning or ban. The rule of not valuing your life goes both ways, meaning that players must value the life of themselves and other players.
