This is kind of off-topic Jasmine, but yeah, that's really frustrating, I remember being in DCC and just being pulled over for the smallest of things, getting tickets, inevitably getting a warning from DCC for getting tickets. It's hard to stay a civ here in Eclipse, and it's really easy to fall into the temptation of being a crim because of stuff like this. You can get fired for this kind of stuff. I understand why crims feel like they don't have a choice. Truth is, PD pull over civillians cause they're easier to pull over than your average criminal with a stupidly fast bike. buuuut, going back on topic, I think that cops aren't as overpowered as people would think. If you're a crim with a Comet Retro, or god forbid a Hakuchou drag, and you speed past the average officer in a cruiser, odds are you will escape. 8 times out of 10. Cruisers just aren't that fast. Yes, cops can get their intercepting sports-cars or whatever, but if they're not initiating the pursuit with them, you will escape, unless you fuck up. Plus, most cops don't have access to them. I realize that it's not that realistic for cops to have sports cars to intercept suspects, but IRL, not every relatively small-time gang member has a sports car/bike. In this server, a lot do, and cops have to adapt to that, or else, crims would escape ALL the time, as opposed to your 8 times out of 10. I mean, wouldn't it be highly unrealistic for cops to always lose suspects? Now, regarding carbines and cops having heavy weapons and such, I feel like people have put forth a strong enough point already. It's just how it works IRL, and we can't just use them willy-nilly. The point of being a (smart) criminal is to avoid such confrontations with cops and compete with rival gangs, right? I realize it's difficult to avoid confrontations with cops, but hey, that's how it works IRL too if you go around shooting people in relatively public areas.

Yup, exactly that! Except your topic is way better and more concise.

Personally, I feel like it would be MORE used, because as it stands having it as a command just confuses new players and they'll think it's a number anyways, since DCC's is a number that already comes with the phone. I know I thought it was a number until I found out it was a command.

This discussion has come up multiple times and the last time this came up, it was decided it should be solved ICly; hence, the introduction of the "Face Concealment" law. However, I do feel like people just put on their masks whenever cops leave and take it off when they arrive, so people still wear masks all the time. I agree it's very unrealistic, and I really think it should count as being non-RP. People with masks at Bank/very public places is just kinda absurd imo. I do think people wearing masks in the countryside and in LS ghettos is 100% fine

I'd attempt to go up in person in that case

BLS courses are set up by MD BLS Division members. If you have a problem with the times I'd go up to them ICly and complain, as this is more of an IC issue than you'd think!

Not sure if this has been suggested before, but since the Taxi service is a number on your phone, I feel like the Mechanic service should also be a number on your phone instead of /mechanic. I know myself that I didn't know how to call a mechanic when I was alone because I didn't know it was a command and thought it was a number we had to find out for an embarrassingly long time!

eLg, SkR, CRRPG, LVRCR. Good memories from all of them. Went by Ian in all of 'em.

I definitely think that people just going around wearing masks is highly unrealistic, bordering on the Non-RP. Even crazy gang members IRL don't go around walking in the middle of the streets with masks on, and especially with like, Slasher/Monkey/Cat masks on.

I'm a veteran SA-MP player who only just found out about GTA V RP about a month ago! I've already played a few hours of Eclipse and man, the RP can be really quite enjoyable. Y'all are awesome. Hope to see you all in-game!
