Hello there. As someone that has played as law enforcement, but mostly been a civ and also has nothing to do on the server anymore und just randomly decided to read a thread, take my input with many grains of salt. As a LEO, there is a lot of RP you gotta do, a lot of paperwork, and you also have to deal with crims that dislike you. Which is to be expected. I want to be antagonized in that moment. However, I believe that the faction itself should sometimes play to lose. To make your character fail. To create moments that people will remember and I enjoy. When I played as Hannah Koch, who was supposed to be a little bit of a nutjob officer, I had a plethora of great interactions with criminals. Because I allowed myself to fail. Crim players need days to get the ressources LEOs have, so when there is a chase happening between two factions. When a crim manages to get away, the character of the leo might lose some pride. When the crim loses, they lose hours of work. (Yes this goes back into materialism, but I think it is a great cause of frustration) Because a lot of LEO players don't allow themselves to lose, however, or engage in roleplay beyond 'chasing, catching, locking up', there are just way to many reasons for crims to not engage with them at all. That in itself is an issue. You need both parties to have fun RP. I think it would be cool to have some sort of mechanic that gives crims a reason to WANT to interact with cops. Be it corruption, an ability to take from them, or fun moments. I remember trying to give someone a ticket, but then letting my character getting gaslit into being told the driver has a pregnant woman in the car. So I escorted the person to the hospital. That is fun roleplay. Also give officers a reason to engage with others. Yes. Serious roleplay is important. But I think playing for failure should be encouraged. Right now it only gets punished.

+1 to this and also +1 to timmaayy

I think this is the wrong part but I'm pretty sure @Timmaayy is happy to hear this.

This happened to me as well.

Ohhhh this looks really fun! Good luck on this one

The work the modders do is just incredible

When working at any mechanic shop, be it bayview or LSC we get the band end of the stick in many different occasions. However, one of the worst things is listening to people modifying their vehicles and testing out the horns. It is constant honking. Maybe something that could be done is make it so when someone honks in the mod catalogue it can't be heard by other players, so that it does not feel like a constant attack on my eardrums when someone tests them out.

+1 this makes sense to me

If people do not check a calendar that is implemented IC for their events, though, that is ultimately their own fault. The ressource has been given and if someone is not interested in using that because of it being on the wrong website, then I do believe that is on them.

+1 I just read through this and I really like the idea. We are currently using the media channel on discord to advertise events, however I think this is also something that could be implemented through roleplay. Like the weazel calendar, as Herrman said earlier. This would just require some maintenance work but can propably be implemented.

Over the last year I've drawn a bunch of characters from ECRP and I thought I should propably share the work I've done. All of the art has been made in procreate, drawn on my ipad. Let's start with "serious" portraits. Solomon Cobb Terry Barry (Later Vaeseri) Andrea Fallon Cyrus Raven The Everdeens Asbjorn Schmidt Colt Daniels Kourtney LaFleur Miss Ortiz Yuki Nakamura My own character, Kellie Bobby Kirk Alex Donnelly Besides those, I have recently started making more cute art. Weazel got some new emotes! And then I just drew some more random emotes of people because, why not.

Too many times I have been at a helpdesk of PD/SD/Gov and had to use /s to ask if someone was around. I believe that giving people the ability to roleplay things that are loud in /me and /do could be nice. There should be a /do and /me äquivalent to the /s we use wen talking loudly. Then you can, for example, do a: /meloud rings the bell at the police help desk. Or /doloud you can hear a loud cracking noise from the living room. I think that would feel more natural.
