  1. Admins have stated time and time again that they do not want petty reports. IMO this kind of report is about as petty as it gets with absolutely no loss. It comes across as ruleplaying rather than roleplaying.
  2. In a recent decision a player was given a Fear RP punishment for talking over the radio while being arrested. this should not be an OOC rule break for fear RP when in actuality there is no reason IC to fear for ones life over such a trivial act and police officers are not going to shoot for it. IMO this type of rule application is based on a "need to win" mentality as far as getting access to crim freqs by police. I do not see why, provided a clear and timely demand from the police is given, that a charge of fail to comply wouldn't suffice in such a situation.
  3. The biggest complaint against the private labs was people making cash alone in a lab with no rp. It is valid to compare the legal and crim sides on this. Store/gas station owners do not even need to be in the city and they are making cash. I have seen LEO's parked and tabbed out for extended periods....still making cash. So lets be honest and admit that the actual basis for this is the desire to solidify the server as a PVP server where gangs are in multiple shootouts per day
  4. The idea that the drug business is simply sitting in a house making money without any RP is nonsense. To just get in to a position to have a lab an enormous amount of RP and cash is invested. RP is involved when getting ingredients, particularly plants, as the labs serve as a means of making connections and even recruiting. I can guarantee you that there is far more RP involved in cooking 250 coke than there is in arranging to have a gas station or store restocked and then go to bed while the money comes in. Private labs are essential to maintaining turfs which in turn affects shipment weight availability. The whole illegal import system is intricately related to the drug business and trying to force factions into public labs will only lead to shootouts and an inability to maintain their turfs to facilitate shipments.
  5. That is not what the new rule says. It does not matter how clear your demands you just can’t start shooting someone for failing to comply with your demands. It is not an either or situation……you always need sufficient escalation and once you have that it is okay to shoot regardless of demands. There have been a ton of rulings over the past year saying this.
  6. So after over a year operating under the rule change that demands are NOT necessary to grant DM rights, the latest ruling in a report made by Alex Sainz now tells us that it is extremely important that demands be given before shots are fired. I suspect that this is just a case where the moderator who handled the report needs more training to catch up with the rule change that was made over a year ago however I have to ask….does this ruling signal a teversal back to the old days requiring demands?
  7. I was told by a PD officer last night that demerits do not drop off and stay on your record until you get three and your license is suspended. Change the system so that demerits drop off your record after a reasonable period of being ticket free.
  8. Can someone explain why we can’t rp placing a crate on the in the back seat or passenger seat anymore?

    Good Grief

    The report filed by JafaJosh and the result just causes confusion. the guy was on his bike and was approached by a player assuring him that he is not a threat. While other dragons were present, Nobody produced weapons and nobody made threatening comments until the reported party pretended he was going to smoke some dragons and then turned the gun on the guy on the bike telling him to get off. The guy on the bike drove off. There was no escalation whatsoever and got shot in the back. How the fact that the guy stayed to conversate with the reported party but was cautious nullifies the need for actual escalation makes no sense and leaves me clueless as to how to play within the DM rules.
