  1. I agree that a very select few cops can escalate and be slightly too aggressive for the situation at hand, but a lot of the time they're responding or reacting to things you can't hear or think of. I got stopped once and a full PD Department on me and gunned down because I had an illegal firearm visible that I'd forgotten about - they do normally have their reasons and IA reports do actually work!
  2. the USA is a worldwide meme, and people still use fake guns there
  3. it's more realistic than everyone owning an illegal firearm lol
  4. not a meme, how often to you see hold ups in real life using fake guns?
  5. Crims should be able to carry fake weapons - these after a short time of being held up to someone would "leak" water. Civilians can also buy water guns without a gun licence as a deterrent to criminals trying to rob them - a UCARA licence can be purchased with a criminal history not involving Aggravated or Armed Robbery. (this is an income for SD and PD and is an Item you must carry on your person along side your water gun) In a store robbery - the water would leak after 60 secs and the store owner would pull the alarm - the time is this much on purpose because crims would be unable to rob a bank with it and would not get much from a store robbery. Face to Face - in a hold up (in an outdoor space) the guns would leak after 30 seconds, giving a DM right to a victim of fake hold up, or allowing a victim to run. Water guns can be purchased from a toy store and an additional item of spray paint is required to make them work on stores. PD can arrest people carrying water guns which are spray painted as "mock firearms" or "failure to provide a UCARA Licence" - but this sentence would be served in PD Cells as IRL is a 25 days sentence.
  6. I believe this to be false - I recently made an IA about a Detective and it was actioned. I'm not the hugest fan of some of the boots on the ground PD but the paperwork side done by the higher ups is actually above reproach in my opinion
  7. Hi guys, I'm adding the police to my stream deck for my Doris character so that whenever Doris feels "wronged" by a cop, I can put their image on screen and give my chat a little more immersion. If you have a COP character, can you please drop a headshot of your character (in uniform or out) and your rank/Sirname so I can add you to my stream deck. for reference they'll end up looking like the attached images and they'll only be used when a negative scene happens between Doris and an officer that she has Aliased or learns the name of
  8. I really hope this all gets put in!
  9. ok, in which case I'll report to Gov I guess each time it happens, hopefully it will yield change!
  10. Hey! Apparently this is already the policy under the Taser guidelines, however officers are in fact ignoring it and reporting it doesn't seem to yield any change as officers are unlearning this rule somehow! - if you see above, Pazz has actually put the correct method used by PD, which isn't being adopted by some officers
  11. Just because I can, here is what I use to train in the classrom: Use Of Tasers Under Police procedures, the use of a Taser should be determined according to the circumstances. The officer must verbally warn the subject where practicable. The device may be used to: protect human life; protect the officer or others from violence where it is occurring or imminent; protect an officer in danger of being overpowered or the officer or others from risk of actual bodily harm; protect from animals. Police should use force that is reasonable, necessary, proportionate and appropriate to the circumstances, and that force should be no more than is reasonably necessary for the safe and effective performance of their duties. There are many factors a police officer may consider when assessing whether it is reasonable to use a Taser. These include the age and physical condition of the subject; the involvement of mental illness, drugs or alcohol; and the risk to the officer, the public and the subject. A Taser should not be used: for an investigative purpose i.e. the video and audio capability should be used only as part of normal deployment; near explosive or flammable materials; where there is a likelihood of significant secondary injuries such as from a fall; to coerce someone to move; against someone who is passively non-compliant (i.e. refusing to move or acting as a dead weight); to rouse someone who is unconscious, impaired or intoxicated; to target existing injury areas of a subject; as a crowd control measure; when the subject is holding a firearm; against a mental health patient solely to make them comply or submit to accepting medication or treatment. In some circumstances, it should not be used unless there are exceptional circumstances. This includes against: someone in handcuffs; a female suspected of being pregnant, an elderly or disabled person; a child or an adult of small stature; someone in a vehicle or using machinery where there is a risk of the vehicle or machinery becoming out of control; a subject who is fleeing (Taser use should not be the sole reason for using a Taser); anyone for more than one 5-second period. An ambulance must be called any time a Taser is used on a person.
  12. Agreed this policy is in place, however I'm finding that a few of the officers aren't following this policy at all for not combative issues. Example: Old lady doesn't immediately put her hands up for a simple traffic stop. - It is unreasonable to use a taser on this character IC as no warning has been issued and she is non-combative. Example2: Old Lady doesn't immediately put her hands up for a simple traffic stop however has a gun on her hip. - it is reasonable to hold a taser at the ready and discharge if character tries to run after warning "I will tase you if you run" Example3: Old lady is simply running away on foot from an officer with no firearm in vicinity. - it is unreasonable to use a Taser in any sense, there is no threat to civilians a Taser shouldn't even be drawn at this moment in time. Example4: Character sneaks into PD building but is not being threatening - it is unreasonable to discharge a taser without warning. Example 5: character is acting threatening or using threatening language. - it is reasonable to discharge a taser with warning. Example 6: Character has a blunt weapon (baseball bat) at the ready - it is reasonable to discharge a taser without warning if this character tries to run.
  13. +1 on this! especially the reduce sentence for good behaviour!
  14. Motorbikes use far too much fuel currently, on a Daemon I can drive from Mission row to Paleto and 60% of my tank is gone. is it possible to nerf this a little bit? Bikes do have smaller tanks that's true, but they also consume less gas than your average car when using it. Just a tad less fuel consumption would make the experience of owning a bike on the server much better, I'd like to be able to get to Paleto and back and still have a little left over
  15. Hiya, I'd like to start off by saying that I really enjoy 99% of interactions with the PD and SD however there's literally one thing which drives me nuts. I used to train police officers and police cadets IRL (UK) and it was my job to hammer into them to loudly announce when they were about to use force as a warning. Force in this instance includes any form of ramming, Taser, Gun (within reason) etc. I've found that a few members of the PD have got into the habit of Taser first, ask questions later, which in my experience is a fireable offence as it's deemed as overly aggressive in real life. Just saying "if you move I will Tase you" or "I have a taser here but I won't use it if you comply" - gives us the chance to decide what we do, rather than being instantly restrained with no chance to act out a particular scene. A lot of my bad experiences with PD IC have been when I've been tazed without being given the chance to RP, and these tazes often come much without warning at all. Guns - obviously if there is a firearm present the current PD method is absolutely on point and perfect - no complaints here. Pretty please can PD rework some training for police to announce escalation of aggression with Tasers, not only because it's realistic but also because it give the Civs a chance to roleplay a little. I'm not trying to tell the PD how to do their jobs, but with my IRL experience I just thought I could maybe help make it a little more realistic as Tasers are a form of weaponry and *legally* officers worldwide (mostly) are required to announce a tazer before firing. Hopefully this made sense! Just trying to help as someone who is trained on tasers!
