I can assure you almost 95% of PERM bans for CL, VDM, and RDM are used as wake up calls for some people. Most if not all are overturned.
If they still don't get it after their 4th and 5th bans and a short stint on a PERM ban, then frankly they must be doing something intentional.
I am sure 99% of the offenses are intentional. In my opinion none of it is worth a permanent ban. It would be better if instead of punishing players for VDM / RDM, some more organic consequences were implemented.
For example, if a cop takes your driver's license away, it's basically a meme because you can just buy a new one. Maybe license suspensions would be better, and if your license is suspended (for a time period), you cannot buy or take vehicles out of your garage. Now players are forced to try and steal a vehicle if they want to CDM. So instead of banning someone, three new gameplay paradigms were created.Big Fred and WolfLeader like this -

Please submit your 100th appeal
I hope this something you guys get better at reflecting upon. Permanent bans should almost never happen. Especially not for "vanilla" offenses such as RDM. Cheating, extreme racism, etc. I can maybe see a permanent ban for. I've ran several successful game communities and even a first time cheating offense was only a month ban. Banning everybody just forces them to go to your competition. Now, that's just about the dumbest thing ever, right?
My suggestion is to do a clean wipe of the ban list entirely. Some exceptions for players that used scripts to grief the server, etc, but other than that, a clean slate is the best option.

I don't think you can blame the developers - they have put constant updates in for years. The server was a lot different back in 2014.
The community is way too toxic. One time I reported a former admin for blatantly breaking rules as cop and I was harassed by like 5 different people over it. The admins shared the evidence with people when I specifically noted for them not to - and people were trying to dox me through my youtube account. All I did was report someone for breaking the rules - like what the fuck?
Not to mention you get groups like FarmersVille harassing everybody in Kavala. Their house used to be glitched, and they would hold cops in there hostage for hours due to some type of loophole in the rules. New players get kidnapped / killed basically immediately, or treated like shit simply for asking for help.
I'm barely scratching the surface but it's really no surprise this server is dying. I used to meet a lot of cool people back in the 2014 / 2015 era. 5 servers 100/100 all day basically. People acted like retards back then too, but you would meet a lot of really cool new people too, so it balanced out.

I've worked 70-80 hours each week since the last patch. I apologize that I can't live up to your expectations.
You're not the only one that works on the server. I'm not blaming you, I'm blaming the collective asylum. I made a bug report a month ago with evidence and never even got a reply to it. Then you guys post this patch with a brand new cash grab for vehicles nobody uses, and some bug fixes which I would guarantee are a collective less than 20 lines of code.
It just seems like nobody cares anymore. The community is slowly dying and you guys are letting it.

I gave 4gb to my little brother so he could have 8gb’s. I will just buy him a another stick. but i feel my cpu is sluggish..
A 4690k is fine. The 960 is bottlenecking you really hard. The CPU is still a really good CPU even for new builds today. Trust me, it's not your problem and won't be a problem for probably another 5 years minimum

No point in building a new PC. The only thing outdated is your video card. Get a 1070, and another 4gb of ram. Your PSU might be a bit small at 600 watts but would probably work. 800 will definitely be fine. Maybe invest in a bigger SSD. That's really all you need.

1 month since last patch and we get a bunch of skins for vehicles most people don't drive, an APD skin that 95% of the APD force can't use, 2 bug fixes and some APD hats.
sweet.

I've seen this shit happen before, only it was an LT ' undercover' as a cadet to see if constable+ will react correctly on the behaviour.
a.k.a. LT unleashed from all APD rules, great idea!
The one and only time I told a Cadet he could not ride with me is when a SGT (I forget his name) who was recently promoted decided to go undercover as a cadet and be the most annoying motherfucker I'd ever met in my life. It didn't help that I was stoned at the time, but I seriously thought I was dead and this was my hell. Dear lord, it's making me anxious just thinking about it.

Accepting bad constables, ride alongs being fucked, which leads to constables who dont know shit so they teach the cadet the shit. Basically higher-ups, and I think mostly SGT's who just accept to easily. Like a constable who doesn't even know what the harrassement charge is for shouldnt be a constable
Harassment charge is pretty self explanatory

I have Bitlocker and its already off
Could still be conflicting with the files. Would recommend uninstalling it to test before doing anything more drastic like reinstalling Arma 3 again or formatting your drive. If the drive does normal read/writes with other files then I would assume it's a software problem rather than a hardware. Also disable antivirus software if you use one.

Do you have BitDefender installed? If so disable / uninstall it and see if that works.

Is this a difficult concept to understand? Me giving my gear away all of the time does not mean I always give it away.

I'm the depressed one lol. Aight buddy. I have had kidnapped you before (If you are a constable under the name Snow), you refused to drop a fucking word out your mic nvm gear lol.
Continue talking out the ass
What's your name in game?
Just now, Maric said:If I remember correctly, you're the one who was locked in the FarmersVille House for about an hour because you wouldn't drop your gear.
Why would I drop my gear for a bunch of people that scream "IF YOU DON'T DROP YOUR GEAR IT'S FAILRP AND I'LL REPORT YOU REEEEEEEE" and / or reward the people that troll Kavala all day?

Just now, E4^ said:
I don't harass cops at all, you literally just sit here and talk out your ass lmao.
Lol trust me if nobody is giving you gear it's because you're a massive dick when you play and you don't deserve it. Maybe you just don't understand it because you're obviously depressed and acting like an asshole is your baseline ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not worth. Server died for a reason. Little to no roleplay and admins cater to select players rather than majority.
