To start i have worked for the DOC which was some of the best times over my time on Eclipse and also meeting some of the best people in my gaming career, Since loosing my job with the DOC due to IRL issues and only having one character at the time and then turning to a life of crime i can understand from the point of view of the inmates aswell as a ex guard, me my self in many situation inside of prison both good and bad situations you get brought to the jail booked in you get changed and in you go that`s about all the interactions there is with the guards you never really see them don`t get me wrong there is a select few guards that interact but from my point of view is rare I personally try to interact and i get "ill be back in a minute" and never come back they will never come inside the cell block to interact unless its to lock down or put someone in solitary etc and this is when there is alot of guards around... , probably due to the fact all there is to do is for inmates to plan a attack on guards or try to break out, From a guards point of view i would not want to go in constantly just to be took hostage which is the only Rp i see inside lately, but i would want to go in and interact to RP different things with inmates... there is some really good suggestions out there just hope they can be made true and see the DOC improve for guards and for the inmates, i guess we all need to remember at the end of the day it is a jail after all, maybe thinking about adding something to help to curve the amount of attacks on guards then maybe they would be able to come in to RP with everyone and having some things to do that can be done inside with guards able to activate it when they can do them safely rewarding in stamps or whatever, but again i posted this just to have my say in what i see as an inmate thats in more than im out and ex guard.
