    It takes more than 15 seconds to run from several of the spawn points in Pygros HQ to the dome. 

    Thats one of several different HQ's. Highway and Athira and Air HQ its entirely possible

    I know, but unless someone says something you have no idea :P  When the idea was proposed it was proposed with a 45 second timer.  In reality it should take less time to regear yourself than to use the system IMO.

     

     

    It takes me WAY less then 15 seconds to buy an MXM 8 rubber  4 leathal  2 flash and 2 smoke... 

    The part that sucked was dropping all the useless 5.56 and 9mm mags.

    By not having long range optics, all you do is turn this into a third person game most of the time because people just use the third person crosshair.  I saw this change coming and it might sound good on paper but really it's not good for Asylum, I hope this change is never brought to Altis because it doesn't fix anything.

     

     

    I believe the RCO is only suppose to be fitted on the L115.  The AK12 should be compatible with it as well, anyone is welcome to try it in the virtual arsenal.

    The RCO is also fittable to the katiba.

    To be fair, I would say that discipline is an issue on the force.  People don't respect the Points system in the slightest.  I remember when I was LT overhearing conversations wherein people would essentially say they didn't care about points or knowing they could break certain rules without fear because the punishment was so minimal.

    Durga actually brought discipline.  Cops and Civs alike feared/respected him.  Was he perfect?  Gods no.  Was he an important facet in creating a better APD, absolutely.

    I didn't really care for some of the things he did, but I respected the fuck out of him.  He took the hate and that was something needed.  The decisions that people hated him for were not his alone, they were the will of the Captains as a whole.

    Durga was a goddamn Captain.  And it showed.

    I defiantly agree with the discipline statement. Currently it feels like the captains only harshly discipline people that speak out about other higher-ups. And yes the points system is definitely not doing what it was intended to do. But Durga ended up stepping down for the same abuse of power and stopping people from speaking out like Boris pointed out. Yes people feared him, respected him I'm not to sure about.

    The problem with the APD flat out from what I can see is Ed.  Ed has threatened to remove ALL the Sgts because his corporal promotion process was overly complicated and required too much work and  I stood up against it.  I got backing from multiple other people after taking my stand and things all went downhill from there. Ed proved to be extremely immature, proved he cannot take any criticism, and proved to me and many others that he does not deserve to be a captain.  Instead of talking about the issues we had with us, he basically threw a hissy fit, threw out the system and created a new one on the spot that was 100% worse.  Trying to talk to him just made it worse, instead of having an adult conversation and talking about the issues he just told us that we didn’t like his process so he will force this one on us and oh well. If you quit that just gives me more promotion opportunities.  We asked what the other captains would think and his response was “how dare you question me”.  Talking with people who have tried to talk to him it’s very clear to me that he is nothing but a bully and he is very vocal that because he is a captain he can do as he pleases and there are no repercussions for his actions. 

    While I may not agree entirely with what HotWings said here, I was part of this argument. And I agree with the part where Ed was being very stubborn and abused his power trying to force  changes on APD Staff when a lot of staff members spoke out against it. I personally asked what the other captains thought about this, questioning if Ed had been making these changes with the approval of the other captains (since they weren't partaking in the VERY heated debate). And I was personally called out and told "@Psycosis HOW DARE YOU" And then shortly there after told to get into voice comm's on discord to chat with Ed. I somehow managed to maintain my position and rank in the APD, but I was allowed to voice my opinions without being removed.  I also have some very fond memories of Ed, like shooting a drone out of the sky. Or saving video footage of a certain gang VDM'ing his ocra in pygros HQ. But power corrupts. 

    In closing here is a quote that I think fits this situation perfectly. 

    “Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority; still more when you superadd the tendency of the certainty of corruption by authority.” Lord Acton

  6. Sorry Gents,  But Durga isn't the answer to this either. There were different problems back in the days of Durga. I remember SGT's and LT's during that time frame demanding changes be made to playtime requirements, and those demands being ignored / told to step down. And nothing changed until a large percentage of existing LT's and SGT's stepped down, and then the Captains stepped down.
