would be cool if you could petition to have your monthly hour requirement lowered if you have been an active corporal for 2 years or something. I don't think they should get retirement perks or a new title in game though.

That would happen way too often to not even make it worth chasing the high bounties. No one would ever be wanted if they got a pardon for each time they are killed.

Wonder if it would be possible have sand Collection available at the sandy beaches using a shovel? So it would be easier to collect sand for glass

Excessive speeding is a charge.

That's art right there L suggestion

That's my Medical Director
 

I’ll wheel @Blake.out to the meetup.

Make SRT more rule oriented. Guidelines such as going for #1 on the leaderboard when they have caps, #2 when #1 doesn't, etc. They can go to hotzone and hardpoints regardless of the capper though. Currently SRT is just another gang with free kits. Half of them are the B and C team of gangs that are full and nothing stops them from not going to their own gang's flags. This change could give SRT a more impactful role and change the way Dom goes. 

FTO Application
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
FTO Application Requirements
- Must be 17+ years of age
- No Active Points
- Be the rank of Constable+
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
FTO Application Process
Apply through this Link (Google Forum) Once accepted by Training Command you will be required to take the FTO Entry test (Old Mock Cert test) If you pass you will be moved to a in game section will you will be required to conduct a FTX with a member of the Training Command. In this FTX you will not have a document to work off of, you will have to take your personal experience and train the member of Command as if they were a new officer. This can be on almost any topic of your choosing from federal events to HQ lockdowns. If you pass this phase you will become a FTO. Note: If you are a ACTIVE Mock Certified Officer point 2 does not apply to you. 
Current TOs will automatically be given FTO but will need to come speak with training command to be familiarized on the new processes.
Any SGT+ who is wanting to become a FTO must still apply through the link but they will not be required to take the FTO entry test. Also activity requirements for SGT+ FTOs will work completely different (Explained below).
Training Command will contact you through private messages on the forums or through discord. Please keep a eye out for a response.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
FTO Activity Requirements
Constable/Corporal FTOs - You will be required to complete one FTO activity each month. This includes either a Mock ride along or a FTX. This is subject to change at anytime depending on the amount of activities possible. Even though officers are only required one activity the officers who go up and beyond will be looked at closer for promotions in the APD.  
SGT+ FTOs - SGT+ FTOs will only be able to conduct FTX and not be allowed to do Mock Ride alongs. SGT+ will not have a monthly requirement to meet but if you have not completed a FTX in the last 2 months you are subject to retraining on the process by Training Command. A benefit for SGT+ completing a FTX will be that you will be able to count it as one of your monthly APD staff activities. Any SGT+ that has not completed a FTX in the last 4 months will be removed.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
FTO Incentives
Corporal/Constable - Rewards are based off of attendance and will be calculated as follows: Prestige: 2500 base, 500 per person with a max reward of 5,000. Money: $20,000 base, $8,000 per person with a max reward of $60,000.
SGT+ - As listed above SGT+ FTOs will have the ability to count a FTX as one of there monthly APD Staff activity Requirements. Other then this SGT+ perks will be limited to there not being a monthly requirement. Payouts are still available same as above.

bro is an orbital vsat with that FOV

the music alone should be bannable

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.

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.

This takes the cake for the shittiest cop suggestion of all time. Just wow.

APD vans are marked anyways. I feel that the addition of van access to constables could help in fighting events like Prisons and Federal Reserves when there are only primarily constables and cadets on. Interested to hear your thoughts before making a suggestion.

cheaterwars

I think announcing a gang wars that would be hosted next year could incentivize already existing gangs to comeback/play the server. Just making sure there's an emphasis on playtime as a gang prior to the start of gang wars. Obviously the gang wars event could be hosted by out Event Coordinators.  

This takes the cake for the shittiest cop suggestion of all time. Just wow.

Absolutely correct. That is Bamboo Unions job and no rebel/cartel gaylords are going to take that away from us

You are thinking into this too much..
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.
Money: Give me the name of any person complaining about how much money they spend, I'll take one look at their bank account and I promise you each and every time that they will have millions in their bank account. On the flip side, the people who are sub $1 million need to take a break and focus on money saving/making for a small period of time.
"Pointless events": A small change in mindset goes a long way. There is no such thing as a pointless event. Sure, the rebels may not be trying to benefit from the event (like an Alamo), but why does that matter to you? There's less on the line for you to lose. It's an opportunity to arrest the highest bounties on the server. My advice is that you change the way you think of "pointless events", work more on teamwork, and focus on one on one teaching for those that are less experienced (trainings are not effective, 1:1 is much more effective). Stop yourself from thinking that these events are the rebels trying to piss you off or shit on you (this is a reoccurring complaint I've heard), instead think of it as an opportunity. After all, this is just another part of the game. 

I’d rather have something like that than have to pay 50k for every ifrit I put in the gang garage
