Outlander

you do realize admins have as much say as us, right? 

it all comes down to paratus and KBW 

First smart thing I have seen you say
This is never so truer. Most people think its glitz and glam but in reality its can be really daunting, extremely stressful. Most people come onto the team and realize how much it changes their gaming experience, all say (including me) "nah it won't change my gameplay" but it does, its mentally draining, it paints a target on your back. The real perk in it? It's not scripting, money, women, it's about trying to keep the community safe and cleaning up the very dirty streets etc. It truly takes a special person with a high level of drive to make this place, a better place.

That part about "if you were told you're not allowed to, you may not" has been in there for awhile and isn't 100% applicable anymore. What is more applicable is an addition to the guidebook more recent than the aforementioned line.

So any undercover officer is allowed to use drugs as long as it is not at a government/APD building or a police checkpoint. 
I sent a note to Jamooze to make this more clear in the part you mentioned, so thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Don't know if you'll really remember me.
But nice to have you back 

I'm pretty much a shoe in.

Cops investing in gangs = corruption? 

"Somewhere between 0 and 50" Gnashes -2k16

Strangely enough, he shared the video with me. A lot of the time, its the other way around.

 

This was an idea that I wrote up to be implemented in Asylum quite awhile ago. With the new help from KBW and Bamf, maybe they will actually look at this and give it a more serious thought. So maybe if the community really likes the idea, it may or may not be implemented. It is quite the read...
 
Asylum Medical Department
 
After reading many posts about medics, it appears that community would really like to get our medics whitelisted on the servers. Sneaky and myself are willing to lead this and kick it off. After we get it going, I would like a trusted member of the community to take over and continue to lead this.

 
Ranking Structure
 
Medical Director
Enforce the medical rules and help improve the quality of the medical staff
Promote EMTs to EMT Field Supervisors

Rules
 
Follow Asylum Rules
Role-play everything and stay in character as best as you can
Spread out throughout the map. Not every medic needs to be in Kavala and Agia Marina
Do not sell medical supplies or vehicles
Do not intentionally harm anyone or wreck vehicles (exception - self defense)
Use Emergency Lights and Sirens when responding to a call
Medic is not meant as a tool to follow around your gang/APD or assist your gang/APD. Using medic as a tool to “stalk” your gang/APD will result in blacklisting.
Medics are suppose to help everyone, whether APD, rebel, or civilian.
 
There is no age limit and you are not obligated to be on Teamspeak. However, we do highly recommend you to play on Teamspeak to help coordinate different areas to assist civilians.
 
Talents - 32 Total (May be more based on implementation) - 20 Max
 
Combat Medic - ability to revive someone
 
First Responder - see someones 911 request 1km radius of location

Bariatric Ambulance - Ability to buy Offroad
Quick Response - Ability to buy SUV
            -- Pop-up Clinic - Ability to station a temporary clinic (loaded into offroad)
--- Medivac - ability to buy a Hummingbird
---- Flying Doctor - ability to buy a Hellkat (new skin) m900? Only if the hellcat idea is shot down. currently the medic hummingbird has limited seating (to prevent gang abuse?) So if we whitelist we tell them not to abuse it and if they are caught they will be blacklisted.
 
Public Service - receive taxi requests (scroll wheel option for tip - bank acct to bank acct)
 
Trained Mechanic - ability to repair vehicles
Grease Monkey - increase speed of repairing
-- Triple A - receive vehicle repair requests

Small things to fix/add:
 
Medic sirens have to cycle before being able to shut off. Change them to police sirens to turn on and off as you hit “F”.
Option to drag knocked out players to a safer location.
Helipad in pyrgos
Ability to heal people to full health by putting them in/near the hellcat or a box truck.
When someone actually clicks “request medic” they should not be able to respawn for a set period of time.
Some type of talent to harvest organs from people who respawn. Sometimes people request medic and then respawn before you can get there. When they do this: Add a timed mission to retrieve their organs and bring them back to the hospital for a payout.
Increase death timer to 8 minutes or so

 
Random Suggestions:
 
-Medics able to sell medical supplies from vehicles at an inflated cost (since it would be convenient.) They get a portion of the sale.
- Make the revive system tougher. Someone who is revived should be fatigued and have the shakes until seeing an EMT or going to a hospital. (would help with the defib spam by cops/rebels)
- Random chance of being in a “state of shock (downed and cannot be ziptied or could use the overdose animation)” when revived by a non EMT. Requires a medic to come and use an adrenaline shot to pick you up.



Also, the Hippocratic Oath similar to the APD oath thingy:

To all the admins that just resigned
 

   I have decided to step down from admin in addition to the other recent resignations. I became an admin because i wanted to give back to the community, i feel that i have had some amazing times here on asylum. Hopefully i have created fun times for those who interacted with me. Over time i did become a little jaded due to things going on within the staff that just weren't healthy for the community. There have definitely been some times where I could have acted better and I apologize to anyone who may have encountered that with me.
   There are some changes recently that i feel are going to be great for Asylum (congrats to KBW for finally being able to contribute), and there are some not so great changes. There are lots of things internally that need fixed for the staff. I know that some of the other admins who recently left feel a similar way about everything. Thanks for the good times and maybe I will see some of you around.

Everyone, 
I want to take a moment to remind each of you that by the virtue of your rank, you each have access to information and details about players that are considered as sensitive and confidential. With this access comes the expectation that each of you will keep this secure information safe and not share anything that you see or read with those that are not privy to such details. This includes specific details list in player's applications, certain details about a player's whitelist status or history, specifics from IAD reports, or even topic details for other player reports from any other moderated forums. 
Anyone caught abusing this access by disseminating any confidential information will at minimum result in losing their access to such information. This includes access to said moderated forums. Obviously, should you lose your access to these forums you will not be able to fulfill the responsibilities that come with your rank. As a result, you can expect to lose your rank as well when you do not keep up with the tasks required of your rank. 
I hope you can all appreciate that players must to feel safe that the details they post in moderated forums will be held in confidence and not fearful of retaliation from their accused nor the community as a whole.
 
Finally, THANK YOU ALL for your continued support to the APD and as well as the Asylum community!
