Ultra3D Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Cops lately have been extremely power hunger, and using metagaming (IDS) to "Find" people. To me this is completely ruining mine and a few others RP and I feel really needs to be checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MohammedAli Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 If you feel like someone has meta-gamed (used ID) to find who you are - Report it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you undergone a name change that the /alias that a Police Officer set would be different from your actual name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying that no cop does that, there are most likely a few, but there is /alias set on your head from the license previously given in one of the interactions. Place that name on the MDC, full if they have it, if it comes up - it's you. The rest.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawpi Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Because they asked for your ID at some point in previous interactions... There is no way of CKing so if you do a name change and they input your old name, the one that they have on your /alias - it would say that this person doesn't exist, so to further identify you without your license being given to them would be role-play, like checking files etc. You are saying that they identify your by ID all the time, but we set /alias on people we meet.

This is what you need to do if you feel that somebody has metagamed your name. Anyone can be reported and potentially punished for rule violations, everyone has to follow the same rules. However, as Dawpi says above, like anyone else on this server, if you meet someone at some point on this server, you can set an alias for them. This will allow you to identify by this alias in the future. That feature is not restricted from Police Officers, they are too allowed to make use of it. I hope we cleared that up for you.
