PD SWAT already enforces OOC regulations regarding what weapons can be carried simultaneously with others, if server management want to implement a rule which affects ALL PLAYERS then I would support that, however creating server rules which can only be used to punish one group of players on the server but allow other players to get away with the same thing doesn’t seem fair to me. For now, if you see a SWAT Operative carrying what you to believe to be ridiculous weapons, reach out to me with evidence and I'll judge if it breaks our OOC guidelines. The situation described in the initial post does sound like it would be a violation, however I’d need to be provided with evidence before I can take action.

Yes, the option exists but the PD wants its members to spend time playing the actual game and not on the forums posting repetative threads. This has already been suggested on the government forums and from what I've read over there it is something the PD has requested as part of a MDC revamp.

Hey... so X-RAY is the PD's callsign for a Police Helicopter, so I'm not really sure what you mean by this statement. We don't have some tool, called 'X-RAY', which allows us to know where a player goes as that'd be broken as hell.

Unfortunately if this was the way things worked, literally everyone would just whip out a pistol and demand DeathRP once they were downed. In a realistic world, one or two bullets would be sufficient to incapacitate a suspect without killing them, however cause this is a game and someone getting two-tapped would be unfair and boring, more shots are required and as such the number of shots required to kill an individual is a fair number higher than what would be required in real-life. Typically I will approve DeathRP if it is realistic, ie. why is the person evading from me? Do they have a tonne of active charges? or is it a simple citation stop they've turned into a Felony Evasion and Attempted Murder of a Gov. Employee for no reason? In addition, is this the first time I've attempted to detain the same individual for the same charges? I have no interest in consistently having to chase the same person for the same charges every-time for them to whip out a pistol and go all last stand on me for the umpteenth time. I don't really deny DeathRP based on the length of time that a situation occurs, I typically deny it more for poor RP like I've mentioned above. (Although it is rare for me to be in a position where the complete decision of DeathRP is on me alone.) If there was a system where DeathRP had consequences similar to jail, then I think the whole scenario would be more fair.

Same thing for the PD doors, when opening the armoury door you open the door to the locker room corridor.

If it was a license, it would need to be issued by Government/PD no? You could RP a ID badge, but a license has to have some government body approving/supporting it. Regardless, I'd like to see a license for PI's which would be handled by someone within the City Government.

((To be honest this is not something which can work in the current set-up/legal arrangement of the server, the 'Federal' aspect of a faction such as FIB results in the faction having too much authority as there is no Federal Body which could supervise such a department, like Government Commissioners supervise LSPD. A city based 'Investigative' agency would be more reasonable, however this role is currently already occupied by the LSPD IB. If I were to give you some advice, I'd start this off as a Private Investigation Agency, since an Agency such as FIB or a city based equivalent would need be authorised by some IC body, therefore creating one with-out such IC permission would be unrealistic/Powergame. Possibly working with the City Government and taking cases would then result in such a department then being created.))

There are only speeding cameras at NCZs, you only get an automatic warrant for your arrest if you're going 80 km/h over the speed limit as far as I know. Every other ticket has to be paid off within 3 days, otherwise you'll then receive a charge for failure to pay a ticket. Just avoid NCZs if you want to speed and you should be fine. I do think that the jail time for the automatic camera charges is extremely excessive, 45 minutes is ridiculous in my opinion.
