PD would be way too OP with flashlights! On a real note, +1 for legal imports, however it wouldn't make much RP sense having officers/SWAT collect the import - IRL it just gets delivered to the department. I also agree that there needs to be focus on a criminal overhaul prior to new PD implementations.

I like this. I'd like to ask @Z0thian for her opinion as she is in prison the most!

People don't seem to be understanding this at all. The suggestion is to add a mod that includes a range of different clothing styles for the emergency services to choose from. The vanilla clothes are still there this will just allow the emergency services to be able to modify their uniform. What is being suggested here is to allow emergency services personnel to choose from a list in a menu for what clothing they would like to patrol with. The "vanilla" uniform would still be there, just a range of other uniforms too that IC rank authority can influence.

I totally understand where you are coming from here. I also find it extremely strange and unrealistic RP to roll up to someone on an RPly populated street in broad daylight and scream hands at then to swipe their GPS. It's something I completely forgot about when the rule-book was being revamped and updated. There needs to be some rules pertaining to the realism of a robbery to prevent these situations from occurring and steer the ship towards higher RP standards.

-1 I understand why you are suggesting this, but in a game setting where when you die you only have to follow the NLR rules and can continue your character's progression - losing all contacts and the number people know you by doesn't make sense to me.

Big plus one here. I agree that you need to have consequences for your actions in game, but hitting someone with a OOC 5 hour sentence plus to ruin their night is not the way forward. I used to argue that prison times should be uncapped but after playing for many months with the cap, both cop and criminal RP has severely slowed down and become somewhat stagnant.

This is a faction thread. Stop bashing each other else the thread risks an archive and punishments issued.

YIKES Quoting me like that at the end At the end of that day, I still stand by what I said in that quote, it's just the player's mindset needs to change to have active RP in jail and not to tab out and watch Netflix for the duration.

Welcome home Chief!

OOC removals will always be a thing from all factions. Official and non official gangs do it more than you would think. OOC removals are actually more common in gangs than it is in PD.

OOC Punishments in PD are exactly that, OOC. There is no IC element whatsoever. Example: Suspension for Poor RP standard, OOC toxicity towards other factions, the list goes on. Suspending someone OOCly isn't an IC punishment for an OOC action, it's an OOC punishment where the person in question is being blocked from roleplaying with the faction for the set amount of time due to their actions. ICly nothing changes. @Catstify

What started this train of thought?

Logan Cross's new identity scriptly is still Logan Cross. CKing is not supported by the script. You're well within your right to kill a character of yours if you so wish to do so, but changing your name is not a CK. A CK is roleplaying the character dying then using another character slot for your new character. CKing is not supported scriptly therefore it has to be a new slot until such system exists.

-1 Was a bit of a meme when it was around and it's good that it was removed. Made PD extremely strong by 1 shotting people and vehicles.

I love how active this thread is, awesome work guys - keep it up!

Oh yeah? @Hoxton_Curry let's do this

To respond to this, PD (and I'm sure SD also) have an internal OOC protocol for "Leniency to New Players" where everything related to their arrest or jail time is advised to be reduced drastically to allow them to get back to playing to learn the ropes of the server. About the whole "Why are so many gameplay mechanics only understandable after having to go to prison or by discussing it with the staff" if you see it, RP it unless told otherwise in RP or by staff. This will stop the whole confusion in the future.

Success rate correlates with vehicle class?

+1 much annoying!

+1 to stock versions of purchased vehicles on all characters. -1 to a single transferable/accessible vehicle.

Remove until sync pls

To be honest, the suggestion @alexalex303 made is actually quite good but there would need to be a restriction on paying fines on charges requiring jail time and expired tickets (3 OOC days) where you cannot pay these off without interacting with an officer. (Credits @Echo45 and @Shadow)
