    The question is whether or not "cop mains" should be able to survive/sustain themselves on the server without playing civ to make money for their cop armour/mobiles/etc that you are expected to pull.

    I am glad others are stepping up to make controversial posts, and it's very weird when killer11 is a voice of reason.

    I don’t have a problem with cop mains being able to sustain themselves on cop. But the incentive to give high tickets to sustain that is an issue. Maybe the system of paying cops should change somehow to address this.
     

    Cop mains tend to play so much and deal with so much shit from civs that they get disconnected from their actual purpose as police. Then they make posts like this. The APD forgets that its purpose is to serve the rest of the community and make the civilian experience more enjoyable. Seems like the current APD has strayed so far from that nowadays.

    Elaborate

    Getting rid of the "would you like to explain your charges" will not do the server any good.

    The APD, as a roleplay faction, should be concerned with trying to promote RP over anything else. Like @killer11said, if you want to make money go on civ. When civilians play the "when you're in Kavala" soundboard, interrupt them and ask them questions about their story. If they don't respond then you know they are using a soundboard. Give them a ticket.

    I feel like the reason so many civs don't bother to RP anymore is because cops still give huge tickets when they do. Anecdotally, I've explained my charges with an original RP story about 10 times in the last month. Not once did I receive a pardon. 6 times out of 10 I got a half ticket. Why would civs go through 10 minutes of explaining just to get the same ticket they would've gotten from screaming slurs?

    You are a training officer. Host some RP trainings. APD has the biggest potential to improve RP on the server and you are in a position to make it happen. But the answer is definitely not to just get rid of it altogether.

    Make some of the unused jobs more profitable but require expensive equipment Make jobs like oil or salt more profitable but require very expensive equipment like market items such as the pickaxe but high cost or special expensive vehicles or vehicle mods.

    Add ATMs at some legal job sell points Some legal jobs could have an ATM at the sell point. For example an ATM at the jewelry store or commodities trader just to take some of the risk off and give a bit of a bonus to the less profitable legal jobs. I think this also makes sense from an RP perspective.

    Buff gas station to 20k I think gas stations are a great idea but right now 10k for 10 mins is really bad and not worth it. At 20k we might see more action come from them.

    I like these three a lot

    I mean not a bad idea at all, one issue I foresee is that I feel like the AFD is the Wild West rn.  There were feds this past weekend where there were four medics for rebels none for cops, blocking our shots with hunters etc. I feel like there wouldn’t be a way to counter this if for example someone dropped one on the roof of bank, and suddenly there’s unlimited medical supplies and assistance.  Obviously this can be adjusted with policy/code but food for thought.

    if this is happening you can report it. there should only be 2 medics max at an event unless its a Shipping Robbery. 1 medic is supposed to help cops and 1 is supposed to help rebels, but if a medic's side is hostile to them they are allowed to switch sides one time. so theoretically there should only ever be 2 medics max helping either side.

    If you take fall damage and die in your own crashes in god mode then yes? Not really sure how you stop people from RDMing unless they simply just can't. I don't even know if it is possible. I know that there is a passive mode for new people. Though, I don't know if they can die. I do feel as though it can be done. It just would take some coding and time.  

    perfect. so lets just remove the whole aspect of initiating via voice and turn it into Gmod Dark RP. This is the dumbest suggestion I have ever read lol
