Voiding a situation bc of lag or desync

[IAmTurtle]

Its seeming to become more of a problem of pursuits either being restarted or voided due to small bits of lag or desync. It does suck that some times it is cuts off due to stuff out side of your control but we all (on the leo side) deal with lag and desync that messes us up and we kinda just let it slide. These admin sits are just so slow and take for ever. Less admin sits the better.

 

Sorry this is a mumble but I am tired and slightly annoyed.

While I understand the frustration with admin sits and the impact of lag or desync during pursuits, I respectfully disagree with the suggestion of not resetting situations caused by factors outside a player’s control. From a player’s perspective, especially those evading law enforcement, they often have a lot at stake—whether it’s weapons, drugs, or prison time. It would feel unfair for them to face the consequences of something completely out of their hands, like lag or desync, without an opportunity for a fair reset.

I understand your point about keeping things moving and reducing admin sits, but I personally think fairness to the player base in situations like this has to take priority.

There is not much to say to this;

We as a staff team have discussed this in the past and put a focus on looking into something being an IC accident or not (was it lag or not) and will rule on that for the fairness of those involved; it's a courtesy we offer everyone and we will not be removing this courtesy.

We do our best to not pause situations for too long to reset them, if you had to sit still for too long to ensure someone got a fair chance, I'm sorry to hear.
