It is a MYSTERY why Asylum is on the path back to average 20 players so quickly!!!! (and already back to almost half of the NLR on altis server) (spoiler: it's because it's the same faggots)

Some good points and observations in here but, no mind, certain people will just come in here and shit on it and troll. And then they will sit in their hidden TS channels with it being a mystery why battlemetrics looks like this on a Friday evening

Too busy sucking the life out of everything (bananas, peoples' enjoyment) rather than focusing on the bigger issue that asylum hardly scrapes 50% of the average time played of Olympus. For asylum to be getting raped by an altis server that has NLR in 2024 is kind of a sad state really, but glad to see we are worried about discord reaction harassment, shedding vehicles and suicide vests on 30-player "domination"
@Fitz is doing great work, but without paid incentive for devs in what is a limited talent pool asylum is well behind the curve

Neither of these say you are required to give a reduced ticket. The quality of a player’s roleplay attempt is up to the officer’s discretion. If you don’t deem it worthy and can argue a case as to why it’s not worthy then you are more than welcomed to decline giving a lower ticket. It’s not robocopping if you can make an actual case in an IA as to why you did what you did.
If someone gives a full and articulate explanation of their charges and you proceed to issue them the full ticket they started at then I cannot think of any defense to that whatsoever that would make it not robocopping. But like I said, people can go crazy with his advice just don't be surprised when "discretion" doesn't save them from failure to RP points
I would add that the "should" is definetely an instruction statement. It's used elsewhere throughout the guidebook for that purpose. The reduction amount or pardon is officer's discretion, the fact that good roleplay invites a reduction isn't.

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.
uh. Yeah you are. it's literally the second line of the processing part of the guidebook. feel free to take this advice and enjoy the points you get for robocopping I guess. Please delete this thread and delete this forum before more people embarass themselves saying retarded shit I am begging you @HunterB @Jr4life24

This takes the cake for the shittiest cop suggestion of all time. Just wow.
This APD suggestion forum honestly needs to be deleted, constant clangers from vegetable brains these days. And all its doing is showing how far the APD has fallen off that troglodyte shit like this and the "Section F cadets" is the sum total of intelligence coming from higher ups

I think we should go back to the gang fort that would crash the server when a new gang capped it and it reverted back to the previous gang when the server restarts
And the gang that was stuck with it permanently was also the gang of the developer that made such an unfortunate misconfiguration 🤭

I feel like this is one of -those- issues where there are solutions that sound great but so many challenges that make it really complicated. Principal of which, some people step away from the PC for long periods of time - military deployments, health issues, stuff like that. What is/isn't an acceptable reason not to play arma 3 roleplay game? Who will govern that? How will you verify the integrity of peoples' claims?
If you set a bare minimum then people will just log on and AFK just enough to meet that minimum, I don't think it's gonna have some revolutionary effect.
IMO, with the few extreme examples that I've heard about where this stuff is going on with sheds/v good location houses and has been for many many months, it may just require someone taking the plunge and just taking it and auctioning it off, returning the proceeds to the original owner. Yeah they will cry but it's on them. And if they are active enough they can win their own house back in the auction.

APD is a roleplay faction, you have to give someone sufficient time to explain their charges... Opposite also applies, they must be actually explaining the charge and you are free to use conversational tools to keep things moving and prevent mindless waffle to stall for time. And if they are not providing an explanation give them a ticket based off their explanation to that point.
A return of HVT or something like what you suggested is gonna get abused into oblivion.

- Seems to be a new trend to start a jewelry emporium, get the to the stage where the qilin spawns, go take the qilin to a safe non-cop zone (cartel, shed, et cetera) and leave it with 1 guy preventing a despawn.
- Then start a new federal event so all the cops have to go respond to that instead so you can pull up to African warlord and sell everything for free, leaving almost no risk in selling at warlord
Anyone who has to stinge fed events on here in 2023 belongs on a list. But in the interim might it be possible to prevent new federal events from starting while the Qilin is active, and/or have it explode or otherwise be indisposed after x (30?) minutes of having spawned in?
End of the road? Or what's next?

This is a really good take and covers most my thoughts, the only thing I'd add is there's an obsession with adding mods as if it would be some kind of silver bullet. Sorry, but raising the barrier for entry even higher when you have 10 players weekend average is not going to save asylum and that would be a waste of everyone's energy. Plus I can't think of anything more shit and gay than mods on Altis, and I wouldn't waste the storage space.
Also shutting the server down for a month and a half to undo the wipe (which was the only thing that pushed asylum to capacity in the last 2+ years) was a net negative. The wipe itself was never a problem, it was a failure to run with it and actually capitalise. Instead it was just wipe, hey here's a blank altis life mission file with FA content on top of it.
The rot of asylum A3 started long ago and I don't blame the current devs for starting it but the missed opportunity of last summer and some of the strange choices since then should be a message to people to lower expectations. Consistent 50+ average pop asylum will not be happening again on Arma 3.
