FastByte Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) When someone is going to be put in jail by an admin as punishment, that admin may want to; a) Warn the player being put there. Some of us have jobs (even NEW jobs) where we are on duty and have a work vehicle. Give a 5 minute warning so we can wrap up our RP business which affects the individual being punished AND everyone involved in their RP activity. This is a no brainer. b) This one blows my mind. Take the personal effects off people you put in IC DOC Gen Pop for an OOC admin punishment. I was put into Gen Pop with all my effects and a full combat pistol. Cannot express how much of a RP blunder that would be if an inmate killed me (one almost did) and got my gun. If players are warned they will be jailed, they will have time to remove their effects and store them or have them taken on admittance to admin jail. Im not complaining about the fact im being punished, that I deserve. Lets try and keep OOC and IC separate.

Aldarine Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) If somebody is placed into admin jail it's because they broke a server rule that they are expected to know about upon entrance to the server. Those players shouldn't be allowed any leeway whatsoever (ie: allowing them to continue RP for ~5 minutes). Edited July 25, 2019 by Aldarine Realized I forgot to add one thing to the end - apologies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kebab Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 I was placed into jail before and I had a pump-shotgun on me, I requested OOCly to be placed into solitary as I shouldn't be in RP nor should I have them items on me, I feel the staff member jailing the person should personally take them to solitary otherwise it could cause some obvious issues with breakouts and other inmates gaining those weapons non-rply. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah man that's exactly what I did. Close one though, almost got gang beat to death lol. Also found it odd that throughout my entire stay the only custody staff I saw showed up for an OOC purpose. No tier checks, yard guard, cell searches, activities etc or any RP element to the prison whatsoever. Disappointed.

Flucifial Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 If an admin puts you in prison and not a jail cell, that shouldn't happen. Admins are supposed to use a command that puts you in a jail cell in a separate dimension than others. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pon Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Isnt it /ajail /setworld (random nr)? So you dont end up with people put behind bars icly? You are oocly jailed if you are sent there by admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrus Raven Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Something that would fix this, seeing as admin jail is completely OOC is just don't allow the banned player to log in to their account for the time they are banned for. As for the 5 mins warning, I think that's fine. Could see a few issues where people go full retard and Mass DM after finding out they are being jailed, but assuming that isn't an issue then giving a bit of time to return work vehicles and wrap up RP doesn't seem like an issue to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallinByNature Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Admin jails are used in situations where the RP is not able to continue and punishment is necessary. Before that, admins are taught to teach and inform players and use other tools like resetting RP if necessary. In the case where they're getting one from the forums, unfortunately that may interrupt their future RP situations as learning about the rules is considered more important than their current RP scenario. Thanks for the suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
