Firstly, welcome to ECRP. Secondly, we have many players queuing to join currently and are working on reviewing applications swiftly to get people in as quickly as possible. No one is ignoring your application and it will be reviewed when you reach the front of the queue. Archived.

This is an alternative method approved by senior staff. We have trialled in-game frequencies before, but as there is no script-support for being on two frequencies at the same time (like IRL for Police) we have to use an alternative (strictly moderated) method. The ECRP TS is used for much more than just PD/SD cop rp. Most of the people in the teamspeak are members of other GOV factions, but not on-duty, just talking with friends. The same advantage you are referring to can also be /fmembers in game for gov/official factions. This is not just a PD/SD thing. This is simply not true and is a baseless claim - unless you are withholding evidence? Any issues that arise, are instantly acted upon. Furthermore, as mentioned above, someone who wants to metagame, will metagame. The ECRP TS is heavily moderated and is very strict on what can/cannot be said when playing. This is a much better alternative to a few players sitting in an unmoderated discord group call. As above, we have tried. It is just unfeasable at the moment as we require two active radio channels at once. As above, this is not a known issue. If you have evidence, please submit it for review in a player report.

This goes against RP. Regardless on if there is a cap on time or not (I'm indifferent, it doesn't impact me whatsoever) a player should always be charged with all the accurate charges to accurately represent the RP their character got involved in. If they shoot 10 cops after holding one hostage then going on a dangerous pursuit around the city for hours, they should receive all charges on their record regardless of an OOC scripted restriction to accurately represent their character's actions. Having something prevent accurate recording of crimes goes against character development entirely. As above, I'm indifferent on a proposed cap. People should focus more on realistically roleplaying a criminal character and not getting caught doing these crimes that create long sentences. People should be scared of prison.

Absolutely! Everyone is welcome here so long as they are willing to promote positivity and provide a good experience for all players in the community. Welcome!

That's incorrect. Nothing has changed regarding SWAT health/armour.

So how about that risk/reward rule suggestion?

Kifflom brothers and sisters! I look forward to seeing this evolve. very interesting concept and it's been a pleasure RPing with you thus far!

Faction leaders were informed.

It's because you would be changing your entire faction's lore which would require progression rather than an instant switch. If we look at the LSMC faction thread, there is little to no criminal progression when you inquired about switching to criminal, hence your request was thrown out. You answered your own question here. We are not in it for the long run. We need things to get started off for the faction thread ready for moving forward with the plans that you have already been informed about (on the 15th). I am sure you would much rather see actual IC money used, not just spawned items/vehicles, right? We are not killing factions whatsoever. High command of other current official groups like this very much and has been praised. This has been in the works for months. Stop speculating.

Faction leaders were informed about what was happening on the 15th of August with details on what these two new factions would be and what Faction Management's role would be in STARTING them up. Please stop speculating what the intent of the faction is as it is NOT for the staff who are currently in it at all.

Why would an NCZ help anything? The aim of the robbery rules were to move civilian RP away from no crime zones, not move them to new ones. This is an OOC forum for OOC discussions. If you have an issue with police enforcing the law (which is entirely IC) then report it ICly to the police/commissioners but making an OOC thread won't do much to help your narrative.

Date and time (provide timezone): 20/JUL/2020 Character name: MrSilky Issue/bug you are reporting: Players who just join the server and have the "tour" of the city in the tutorial, are visible to all players which make players think they are flying/cheating. Expected behavior: Tutorial/tour players should either be invisible or in an alternate dimension. Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate: N/A

No, it is OOCly enforced and that is all that needs to be publicly known.

PD needs to be "OP" to be at all realistic as gangs are also seemingly "OP" Focus on roleplay, not winning. I do agree to PD's budget taking a hit for more items though (like armour, weapons and ammo).

I think that's a fair way to look at it. Means that the cruiser isn't a rolling armoury and still allows for extra supplies RP. I agree with you here too. But those comments on this thread were directed to the people blindly saying "PD is overpowered" without considering both sides (crims with supers, businesses, IC rules for PD, crim & PD mindset for action RP over RP etc etc).

I, and many others in PD, were actually relieved when the ID search got removed because it allows us to more confidently place charges without bullshit IA reports "hOw DiD hE kNoW wHo I wAs, I hAd a MaSk". ID removal was a good thing. I agree to the /pw thing too. It is enforced in PD that you must RP what you have in your car beforehand and if you just /pw and grab something that's not RPly there then that is no bueno and should be reported. Most officers do RP placing extra clips/vests/weapons in the vehicle and it is enforced to do so therefore if you notice anyone not RPing contents, please let me know as I am sure some don't. As for your final point, just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Legal (gov) factions are even more heavily scrutinised than illegal. We constantly have internal meetings/discussions/suggestions/implementations that go on all the time. I am not ignorant to the pressures put on illegals to change therefore it would be appreciated to not be ignorant to legals as I can see both sides, legals are much more heavily monitored and scrutinised.

If you want to RP death so badly when you get shot, you should follow through with that death to support your realism and lock all assets earned to that character and never use it again. Oh yeah I forgot, selective realism is the best way to be realistic.
