You can't expect to be a big time criminal without others noticing your patterns, clothes, voice, cars, etc... Although an option for criminals to get medical assistance aside from the government provided method or ability to buy a burner phone would be cool to see, would have to be well thought up to avoid everyone and their grandmother using it, maybe limiting in some way so you have to keep buying it.

As for the burner phone suggestion, I would +1 that, but even if that is the case, calling a government service realistically requires you to provide your name and MD to report the type of wound to law enforcement if it is a stab wound, gun shot wound or if the medical call originated from a domestic abuse situation. Maybe an illegal doctor that you can pay to fix you up could also help. You have provided two dubious links and one from the netherlands which has no bearing of how officers behave in the united states, or specifically, California. I suggest you look up confirmation bias.

I suggest you look up confirmation bias. Maybe you should... ''Confirmation bias is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that affirms one's prior beliefs or hypotheses'' I did not go searching for the answer I wanted, I informed myself on the issue. I never had the position that ''off-duty'' officers are able to enforce the law, my position was that it didn't really matter seeing as this server doesn't have a standard police system. However, you kept bringing up realism so I thought I would do my due diligence and see if you had a point. In fact, claiming the links provided, one of them being a government link, is ''dubious'' without offering anything in return is, in itself, a form of confirmation bias as you are choosing to take your feelings on the subject over going out and doing your own research. But hey prove me wrong and go ahead and link me something buddy, maybe I'm wrong Edit: Here you go, a direct quotation from the Los Angeles Police Department Manual, Volume 1, Policy. Is this credible enough for you ? Edited October 15, 2019 by Kyle White Raven Added a source.
David Moretti Posted October 15, 2019 Report Posted October 15, 2019 MDC indeed means MOBILE Data Computer but it was always located in certain POLICE cruisers and vehicles, I didn't quite see people taking them out of police cars and bringing them with themselves in their private vehicles when going off duty. In my personal opinion it wouldn't be that much of a RP here... -1 from me, sorry.

Just a heads up, this suggestion in no way involves deputies and officers having access to the MDC in their own vehicles, homes or personal devices. It's simply a suggestion to allow access to the /mdc command while off-duty so if a situation arises where a law enforcement agent needs to add charges to someone they can go to the closet available MDC (Mission Row, cruisers, etc..) and not have to let a suspect wait a bunch of time for them to go all the way to their precinct /fduty for a few seconds just to add charges and go back off-duty straight after. Like I said, quality of life improvement. Edited October 15, 2019 by Kyle White Raven

Yeah man, I got your idea but somehow I still consider it non-roleplay in this case, but if they decide to implement your idea, I also have nothing against that. I was just expressing my personal opinion, but even if this exists, I am totally fine with it. 1

I was just expressing my personal opinion, but even if this exists, I am totally fine with it. That's fine! Just thought I would clarify so people don't think I'm advocating for all off-duty officers to magically have access to their own personal MDC 1

In one way it would definitely be useful and great, it is now just up to staff to decide if it would break any RP on the server. Regardless of that, it wouldn't be bad addition at all.
Nubbsauce Posted October 15, 2019 Report Posted October 15, 2019 (edited) -1 I have already seen cops abuse the MDC whilst ON duty. IE: Opening it from the back seat of the cruiser where the criminals sit, to scan plates and scanning plates from an unrealistic distance. If they had the ability to open that whilst in Civilian clothes... it would be ridiculous. Cops IRL don't even have access to a MDC whilst off duty. Edited October 15, 2019 by Nubbsauce
