Possession of Uranium Charge
Any civilian who possesses uranium ore or uranium (weapon grade) should be charged with drug trafficking. 
This charge must be role played as "possession of uranium."
A Possession of Uranium charge will be added shortly.
Uranium Mine and Nuclear Power Plant
Due to lack of funding to the APD, Cadets and Constables lack sufficient protective equipment to enter the Uranium Mine and the Nuclear Power Plant.
Only Corporal+ are allowed to patrol the Uranium Mine and the Nuclear Power Plant. Corporals+ who patrol those two areas are to follow normal drug area policies. Corporals+ who patrol those two areas must wear protective clothing to enter the areas. Marked Corporals+: CBRN suit (Blue) or Diving Suit (without Contact DLC) Undercover Corporals+: CBRN suit (any variant) or Diving Suit (without Contact DLC)
 

just bring back stratis its better

Effective Immediately
Barley
Any civilian who possesses barley should be charged with possession of illegal liquor. 
Ideally this charge should be role played as "possession of barley," although this is not required.
Note: a civilian picking a barley/berry bush does not grant probable cause for the time being.
Probable Cause Addition
A civilian who enters a police headquarters now grants probable cause.
The civilian must enter a police headquarters themselves, and not by other means.

Other means includes:
• Being brought into headquarters in bounty hunter restraints with no prior probable cause
• Being brought into headquarters in police handcuffs with no prior probable cause
• Being brought into headquarters in the passenger seat of a vehicle (tell the civilian to leave headquarters and if they do not leave then you gain probable cause).

We apologize for the inconvenience. The Development team had to make some changes on the back end to fix some issues. Thank you for your patience and understanding.    

Dust was good but Spek surpasses him 

Best LT S2 ever had hands down.

Fsa go bye bye
welcome back

Hello ,
My names Spek, Ive been around since 2014, was a career cop  LT+  (Chief Elect).  I started the swat training when we could deploy swat for FEDS, banks and prisons. After I retired I took a step back from the hardcore APD end of things (when I was playing 40 Hours + a month as the Po) & then switched to playing the rebel side of life. Over the past few months I bit the bullet and joined DS  @Mason@DS_Billy(no idea why lol, maybe its because they have wanted me for years ) Remember I don't always seize ifrits but when I do I make sure it was @Mitch (IFRIT)  first & the second ifrit that he was able to afford. This community is one of my favorites & the reason I always stay here is my love for the people that make it up and all the fun amazing memories that have been made.
So it's time to get back in action after moving to my new house & being busy with my 60+ hour work weeks(past month has been the biggest bitch at work). NOW THAT TAX SEASONS OVER for work it's now time to Play with speed bombs, pull out the occasional GhostHawk & fly away like a little B*tch when Envy, Syn, FSA & so many others try to .50 cal me out of it. 
I look forward to lockpicking your ifrits, taking your drugs, roaching your banks & potatoing all of my shots that over 50m.   @BaDaBiNg_10-8 Be ready for me to camp the prison and lethal you because that's the only way I can get kills 
 
Much Love & Respect,
-Spek

Temporary Policy Update
The temporary policy put into place regarding suspects being able to get back up after being downed has been rescinded.
Bank robberies, Federal Reserve robberies, Prison Breaks, and Evidence Lockup robberies will follow normal lethal ammunition policies once again.

Typical criminal scum @Reapered

boo hoo

Want parole? 

As much as id love to see the servers at high pop again, the issue with this is what about the players that work odd hours and dont normally get to play during peak hours? or what about all the players that arent in the US? Are we supposed to limit all of their access to the servers just so we can have more one and done fights at OG?

Welcome to adulthood. o7 , youll be back! 
 

Welcome to our newest moderators!

Nino for Mod. He is good boi

I constantly harass staff members in the ts for all random questions of different situations I encounter on the servers. In other words, I am truly a pain in the ass as a player to deal with. I use and overuse all the support tools put at the players' disposition. But there has been one support member that seems to always be in ts and put up with my bs and others' bs and take time to answer questions and offer support when he really does not have to. A real man of the community!
As you might have guessed my suggestion: Nino Brown for Mod (or admin)!

Effective Immediately
Therisa (Donor Town) Policy Removal
The threat of the rebels has come to an end in Therisa. Civilians and their families have started to move back into their homes and populate the area again. Officers may now patrol the town of Therisa freely again.
Officers are still not to be in the area for a prolonged period of time.
Flashbang Grenades
Flashbang grenades may no longer be used to intentionally destroy vehicles in any circumstance.
Any officer caught attempting to do so will have disciplinary action taken against them.

Just over 3 months ago ownership of Asylum was transferred to @BaDaBiNg_10-8 and @Clint Beastwood. A lot has been accomplished in that short time span with much more planned. This topic is to acknowledge those accomplishments and share a roadmap for the future of Asylum.
 Within the first 30 Days
Servers returned to full or nearly full during peak times Opened up past bans for a second chance Brought on a new lead developer 3 contributors were also brought in Removed the unpopular money and group caps Within the last 3 months
Migrated servers to a new host Updated the website front and back end (it needed it badly) Continued to roll out a patch every month that not only fixes past issues but takes community feedback and makes it a reality Increased server stability (While we aren't where we would like to be yet, it has come a long way from December) Upgraded player reporting systems to a streamlined ticket system (Shout out to Mitch for this one) Introduced new weapons to the player base This is just a snap shot from the last 90 days. Even more has been done on the back end to improve server stability and functionality.
 
Now that we've looked at what has been done, a preview is in order for the future of asylum.
A complete re-write of asylum's code from the ground up Replacement of current MyAsylum page and features A re-work of the housing/crate system Re-work of vehicle, police, and ems lighting White-listed medics Various cartel changes  Additional armor and weapons New vehicle and clothing skins Re-work of talent trees Many more items on the list, these are just some of the features we are most excited for. As with anything in development all points are subject to not only change but may never see the light of day. In an effort to be transparent we felt it was time give a glimpse behind the scenes of what the Dev's are working on in addition to the regular content/bug fix patches. @Mitch (IFRIT) and myself look over the suggestion section of the forums almost daily and take that feedback and pass it a long to the owners and dev's for what the community wants and in some cases doesn't want. And while not everything suggested will be implemented we value that feedback and want to give a big thank you to those who offer it.
 
As a final note I wanted to take a line or two and say Thank You to the community as a whole. With out you Asylum wouldn't exist. From the admins  who dedicate their free time looking over player reports and compensation requests, to the support staff who sit in Teamspeak everyday waiting to help players, to the gangs whom without the APD wouldn't have much to do, to the APD for keeping the streets safe for the apple pickers and diamond miners, to the Kavalians teaching new players how to put their hands up when being robbed, Thank You. The people are what makes Asylum what it is. 
 
 

We had a 3rd server?  
Just kidding I knew that already

More roleplay in this thread than in the servers itself.

Is this the Hudson river landing?
