I see a lot of reports on VDM and some of the reports on the same people allegedly VDM'ing. It seems to be the same response "Desync!" and when you look at the video it is desync. However, if your an experienced player wouldn't you learn how to manipulate desync to your advantage especially in chases? If you knew desync occurs especially in chases why follow bumper to bumper unless you are intentionally trying to cause a desync crash? Thoughts on this?

I don't get mad at anyone nor was pointing anyone in particular out. I enjoy when PD does RP and give opportunities as its not always a win attitude with me. I prefer roleplay over winning but that's just me. I also did not tag you or mention you specifically. You may be an awesome RP'r I have no clue I only know IC names and if you are I appreciate that. However, just because people get angry doesn't mean all of us get angry and don't appreciate RP. Besides, I have been pulled over and ticketed for going 80 before when cruise was on and officer said I was going 90. Police left me alone and gave me an opportunity to hide the gun. PD did have access to it as it was parked with other cars in a parking lot that anyone had physical access to it. I didn't park it in a garage so I am not sure how at all this would be PG. I gave an example as you requested but it seems you wanted an example to poke holes and argue. I am not interested in arguing I only commented on a post I agree with and what my opinion was due to my own personal interactions. I am not sure where you got 90% of the time. Do we have to look at it as winning or losing? However, I would have to look at statistics of all police interactions and the outcomes based on reason to answer this. This is like asking how a superbike and/or super car can climb 90 degree mountains going 200 km/h, or how you can't tuck a gun under a shirt but you can irl, or how you can alias someone and have a name above their head, or how you plant wheat when the ground is frozen or how you stick 40 oil barrels inside a small crate. It is hard to compare IRL with RP scenarios/interactions because a lot of the time they can't compare.

I agree but it also takes a community to improve RP.

Are you asking for every specific example or generalized examples? If people are not aware of how multiple PD members act whether is it PG, MG, harassment, bullying, or abusing power then it is either they are ignoring grievances or simply not reading them. You can scroll through the pages and find tons of examples that include suggestions accompanied with grievances. Whether you or whoever decides whether to act or not based on suggestions is simply the readers decision. I simply commented on a thread that I agree with and share similar concerns with. In my personal interactions, SD will RP and give you a chance to RP my side and in the majority of my personal interactions with PD I am not able to RP my side whether it is being pulled over, questioned, ticketed, arrested, or followed innocent or guilty. I think PD has the same issue the gangs and criminal characters have, which is a win first mentality. I remember my first run in with the police on the server... I shot someone who stole my car and the guy took off in the car police quickly heard shots and were there in seconds they saw me with a gun and chased the car thief down leaving me alone without an officer waiting with me. While they chased him down I took the car I was in stashed my gun and parked it in a high populated area without the police seeing me. When I returned to get my stolen car the police questioned where I put my gun and I denied having one. An admin went OOC in staff outfit and found my car within seconds that held the gun. I asked where and how he found it when he switched back in to character and he said he scanned every license plate. This, for example, is a win first mentality where the outcome was only going to be one way. This is one example. Could I paragraph out more examples, sure I could as well as many others could. Would they be argued and scrutinized to prove PD is perfect...I don't know, maybe. If you own a business and you are getting the same complaints from multiple customers about your staff being rude or whatever the complaint may be at the business you don't just argue and say we are perfect to the customer. I would hope you would listen to the complaints and suggestions and go back to your staff and communicate some of the complaints and suggestions that have been coming in. I hope no one is offended by a suggestion forum or comments made as these forums are made or I would assume to be made as a platform for players as well as staff to communicate suggestions to better not only individual RP but community RP. In the end we should all have the same goal, which is to continuously improve server RP and grow as a community.

This is the greatest comment ever, lmao. However, I agree as instances with PD feels mostly like Power Gaming. There are a few select PD that are awesome with RP and you can tell they enjoy it. Other than that, majority of PD I run across have a win mentality and power trip over the smallest infractions. In some instances with gangs and crim sure I understand the win mentality but if this is an admin run faction with multiple admins within the PD it should be put at a higher standard and encouraged to promote great enjoyable RP for all players of the server. The intentions may be to have the highest RP standards but when you get in the weeds I believe majority of people would disagree. There is also a stark difference in PD and SD. I find SD much more enjoyable to RP with as they seem to truly enjoy RPing, laughing, and making sure its a good experience. Maybe they can give some pointers...

These guys are great. Great RP and building from the ground up the right way. Looking forward to seeing you all grow and become more established. Thank you all for providing quality RP and looking forward to even more.
