  1. Why were all of my posts removed but the posts of those arguing against me kept?

    I had never posted anything after being asked to stop, so where did all of my posts go? Why are all the posts attacking my opinion still here?

    If you want to contest a policy you should try posting in the proper forum (here: http://www.gaming-asylum.com/forums/index.php?/forum/73-apd-suggestions/)

    other than that idk what to say man you’re the first I’ve seen bring this up

    If you watch that video you'll understand my frustration. Even if it doesn't happen to me often, things that exist which aren't fair piss me off immensely. I'm not a big fan of the whole "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" attitude. In fact, I think it's downright irresponsible and lazy.

    I already did make a APD suggestion post but I couldn't resist venting when Samperino gave me such an institutional answer. Thanks for listening.

    While it is true that many people may have different definitions of “excessive”, the general consensus is, if you can’t have enough common sense to know better, then you probably aren’t APD material... I would agree with you out of the majority of the APD, most do it to troll (place trackers) however some have and do use it as a RP scenario, don’t judge all officers the same just because there are some that aren’t great, use a case by case basis to decide what you find as too much or just right..... and you cannot get penalized by making a report of this manner, unless you are providing us with yourself breaking rules, you will be fine

    Then you do agree with me that the policy does more harm than good, which is why it should be done away with.

    Use your own judgement, if it’s not excessive no action will be taken, if it is, it will be dealt with accordingly... keep in mind this IS an RP server not a KOTH server...

    I understand that but I find it silly that you are telling me to use my own judgment and that I may be penalized in the same sentence. There should be concrete rulings on these kinds of things already in place. Your idea of excessive and my idea of excessive may be entirely different. How often am I allowed to pull over the same person for RP reasons? Can I do it several times within a short span if they are all different people?

    The idea is easily abused. In my experience, officers use this ability to troll more so than to 'roleplay'. It tends to do more harm than good which is why I believe it should be removed in its entirety.

    Well stated. If nothing has been done wrong you are free to go, it takes a few minutes at most, if they are doing it too much in your opinion, simply file a report in the report section for the APD @JuanPablo

    So are you saying there are limitations on this? At what point do you call it excessive?

  6. Just now, Kevingreen23 said:

    If youve done nothing wrong then just pull over and they’d let you go, it’s a cop just trying to rp 

    Like I said, it is wasting that person's time. I would comfortably say that the majority of civilians that play wouldn't enjoy this kind of 'roleplay' happening to them.

    What exactly do you mean is retarded? If you pull this over for a rp reason and they evade then you charge them with evading arrest if you catch them, easy as that. Not too sure if I understand what you’re trying to say here

    The point being that you are allowed to waste a civilian's time when they have done nothing wrong.

    If he does not stop after you siren him and after a reasonable amount of time, of course.

    I'm not sure if you realized this is or not Samperino but I'm trying to be ironic because this policy is retarded

    Obligatory

    If you turn your sirens on to stop someone and they do not stop, that is evasion of arrest (and you are initiated at that point). Yes, you will have to use some kind of force to stop them if they are evading.

    ”Sir I only wanted to pull you over to check your well-being and you turned it into a police chase.”

    People will sometimes say, “You had no right to pull me over!” You can pull someone over for any reason as long as you role play why you pulled them over. In this case it was to do a random tire pressure check.

    I think I understood your question correctly.

    Could I also charge him with evading arrest?

    Wait, so I can pull someone over "to check on their well being" and then shoot them with rubber bullets if they don't comply? 

    That sounds like some intense roleplay shit right there

  11. I noticed throughout reading this thread that admins seem to have a "ban first, ask questions later" attitude. Why is this case? 

    In a Gmod server that I once played, admins would create a 3-way conversation between the acusser and accused, allowing the accused 24 hours to respond before banning anyone (assuming the accused had a forum account). This can't be that hard to do since everyone has their PlayerID linked to their forum account.

  12. I am also wondering about the red-name system. From what I understand, it is simply a tool to aid in the combat process, not a end-all, be-all solution. Essentially, it is very possible that you can be initiated on someone whose name isn't red for you.

    Is there any reason that in order to trigger the red name system, you can only have been shot at? How come it doesn't work the other way around? (EX: If I shoot at someone, his name should instantly become red and so should all his group member's.)

  13. If I initiate on someone with someone, am I also initiating with everyone in that person's group for the next 5 minutes? Do I have to make my commands addressed to all of his group members when I initiate on him?

    This would make it the responsibility of the initiated-on person to communicate with his group members that they are also being initiated on. If the person failed to do so and I killed one of his group members, it would just appear as if I RDMed that other person. If that person made a report on me, I would probably get banned because that person would have had no way of knowing that I was initiated on him.

    Also, if I initiate on someone and he follows my commands, am I still allowed to kill his nearby group members?

  15. Hello. I made some Stings today at the weapon factory and loaded some regular 30 round 9mm mags. Up til now I had always thought it was the ammunition that made a gun lethal or not. However, after shooting someone with a Sting 9mm that I had regular rounds for, it ended up downing the person instead of killing them.

     

    My question is this: Are the Vermin and Sting locked to being nonlethal weapons?
