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 🤭

This topic has the potential to be a really good Idea as long as it don't get shut down the second someone doesn't like it.

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?

I wasn't going to say anything because I'm not really bothered if this gets added, given it will be trendy for about a week and then will happen once a generation thereafter. But it seems to be getting mentioned a lot so I would bring up these issues:
- Isn't the biggest complaints from cops these days that they are stuck always doing back-to-back federal events when the server is busier? Why would they be motivated to just add another to the list? If there are 10 cops, including 2 LTs on, chances are the events are just gonna get started again as soon as the cooldown is over.
- Locking it behind 10 cops and minimum 2 LTs is gonna make it very rare - including for the reason said above. It also has the potential for an incredible variance in difficulty. One day, 4/5 different gangs of 6+ people will fight over it, another literally nobody on the server will care. How could you possibly balance the payout of risk/reward for that?
- Your list of "the only things [you] can do" is the entire point of the APD as a roleplay faction. Combat is instigated by rebels and responded to by the police, that's the objective. Why should the APD be reducing its RP contribution to the server? What value does this add?
- How do you allocate SWAT? Considering there's no way of measuring who will attack, how do you propose to narrow the firepower gap?
- One VDM and it's all over. Also one RPG/vest/speedbomb/remote and it's all over. That truck is gonna look enticing from the cockpit of a buzzard
This sounds like it would be a fun admin event. But I can't think of any way to make the proposals in this thread happen as they are presented.

Ski is a great guy! One of the better and more active admins we had. Capable of playing/seeing the perspective of both factions and not concerned about banning big names when they screwed up. Of course he will get targeted as a result of this. Hope asylum doesn't get to a point where playing in game is one of the discouraged things an admin can do and we get stuck with the guys who disappear for months on end or just play cop in private channels.

I don't see why all this waffle has to be added to the guidebook, keeping in mind people have to actually read it and potentially answer it on a ridealong, just for the one in a million scenario that roleplay on this server extends beyond "it wuz self defence"
And you can already do all of these things without a guidebook entry. This reads more like a training idea than a policy.

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
