I disagree, cops should keep frits however I'm with yall on the higher ups passing down mk1s like its nothing. It definitely happens more often now.

Every new cap is usually dogshit 

Be real, taking Kavala from the top of the spawn screen did this. This server has been on a decline since that exact moment. You say we deterred new players from the server and compared it to a genocide but tbh it worked. Currently asylum has no new players, there is no addition to the player base. Kavala was the perfect breeding ground for initiating new players to the server. It was idiotic to try to push Athira to be the spawn city when it has barely any houses. Not a single new player can even buy a house in the "starting city". Kavala probably has more currently market priced houses than there is total properties in Athira.

Allowing snowflakes to infiltrate admin positions led up to them taking everything good away including my discord reaction perms 

This is the biggest issue. 0 involvement from the owner 
atleast mitch would come on and blow us all up with a tank at an event

getting shit on all the time with the amount of tools at your disposal is definitely a skill issue

the snowflakes who made shedding bannable

First off, fuck the casino. We need something where we can take each others money. Make gambling actually fun.

Bad Blood Recruitment Thread 
We are Bad Blood, a notorious and infamous gang of players that have patrolled the servers over the past 10 years. After a large hiatus due to ransacking and controlling various other islands and domains, we have returned and need to rebuild our Asylum personnel. Gang proceeds and earnings are used to further our gang activity. 
ALL unfamiliar players must undergo a trial period playing alongside our veteran members before being fully inducted into our ranks. If you have no microphone, do not attempt to apply. POST YOUR APPs BELOW. I will also link my steam for further communication needs.

That's art right there L suggestion

Make SRT more rule oriented. Guidelines such as going for #1 on the leaderboard when they have caps, #2 when #1 doesn't, etc. They can go to hotzone and hardpoints regardless of the capper though. Currently SRT is just another gang with free kits. Half of them are the B and C team of gangs that are full and nothing stops them from not going to their own gang's flags. This change could give SRT a more impactful role and change the way Dom goes. 

That is not "robocopping". You're the only one embarrassing yourself. Being a dick cop is one thing, however, giving a ticket based off of your own discretion is another.
Of course roleplay is encouraged and is why we can reduce tickets, BUT you are not required to reduce their ticket because they committed the crime. I don't think it's that difficult to comprehend. Reduction in ticketing (aside from nonaggressive/nonevasive) is a privilege for civilians. (but shouldn't be abused by APD) 
(Yes, you don't need to be a dick by not reducing their ticket, especially in malicious intent, and it is frowned upon. If YOU believe their reasoning for their crimes is understandable, then by all means you should reduce it, BUT it's up to your discretion AND should not be abused.) People in the APD are whitelisted for a reason, if you can't make good judgement calls then you'll be talked to.
Stop being so fucking soft.
 

HVT was fucking gay. Literally invented to give the powerless emotionally broken retards on their last reason the slightest power trip imaginable by robocopping the fuck out of the person responsible for reminding them how worthless they are. It’s not hard to lock an HQ down to properly process a restrained person while giving them the chance to talk their way out of their ticket, you literally process them in your own spawn point and typically a building which is easy to defend and you typically outnumber the group opposing you. And if you can’t manage that then fly them to Kavala HQ where you get infinite respawns with no cooldown (which is a fucking joke in its own right). Or if you’re complaining because you can’t even get the chance to down and restrain a rebel then get better. The only person who is at fault for your inability to be successful at anything is you.

You are thinking into this too much..
Ticketing: You are not required to reduce anyone's ticket... (some people may deserve a reduction, but ultimately it is your choice). If reducing someones ticket is distressing you to an extent that you feel rules need to be changed, then don't reduce it, just suck it up and stick by your choice.
Money: Give me the name of any person complaining about how much money they spend, I'll take one look at their bank account and I promise you each and every time that they will have millions in their bank account. On the flip side, the people who are sub $1 million need to take a break and focus on money saving/making for a small period of time.
"Pointless events": A small change in mindset goes a long way. There is no such thing as a pointless event. Sure, the rebels may not be trying to benefit from the event (like an Alamo), but why does that matter to you? There's less on the line for you to lose. It's an opportunity to arrest the highest bounties on the server. My advice is that you change the way you think of "pointless events", work more on teamwork, and focus on one on one teaching for those that are less experienced (trainings are not effective, 1:1 is much more effective). Stop yourself from thinking that these events are the rebels trying to piss you off or shit on you (this is a reoccurring complaint I've heard), instead think of it as an opportunity. After all, this is just another part of the game. 

They were obviously lying to you from the start anyways. There has never been any crime in Kavala, why else would the cops never go there?

Getting rid of the "would you like to explain your charges" will not do the server any good.
The APD, as a roleplay faction, should be concerned with trying to promote RP over anything else. Like @killer11said, if you want to make money go on civ. When civilians play the "when you're in Kavala" soundboard, interrupt them and ask them questions about their story. If they don't respond then you know they are using a soundboard. Give them a ticket.

I feel like the reason so many civs don't bother to RP anymore is because cops still give huge tickets when they do. Anecdotally, I've explained my charges with an original RP story about 10 times in the last month. Not once did I receive a pardon. 6 times out of 10 I got a half ticket. Why would civs go through 10 minutes of explaining just to get the same ticket they would've gotten from screaming slurs?

You are a training officer. Host some RP trainings. APD has the biggest potential to improve RP on the server and you are in a position to make it happen. But the answer is definitely not to just get rid of it altogether.
