GuyStuffing Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Just as the title says. I really want to join the police but I'm only 13, why do we have to be so old to join? Another case of adults thinking children are dumb? Or some reason I don't realise? I hope it is a reason that I didn't think of, not the former. Link to comment

Churu Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Because you are not mature enough to understand how the APD operates and will most likely not follow all the rules.. They tried allowing younger people in to the APD, it did not work... Link to comment

Plus I don't think anyone in the APD wants to hear multiple squeakers on TS. Phil. likes this Link to comment

We don't want retarded idiots like you who have a mindset from the 19th century, where you think kids should be locked up in little boxes shielded from the outside world. We are real people who have hopes and desires and strengths and weaknesses. And if I want to join the APD I don't need people like you insulting us and calling us out because of our age. Happy now?

Wondero Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 (edited) The APD is run like an organization with certain policies and regulations governing it. Psychology proves that younger age equates to less vigilance of your actions and a willingness to do your own thing (a part of maturity). The APD doesn't need that. Because of the nature of the APD and the large number of whitelisted officers, the APD needs individuals who are able to abide by a piece of text and take an order. Not saying you can't, but generally that is the case around your age group. And just for the record, the age limit has been lowered considerably twice in the past. It failed to improve the force both times, in fact, it noticeably diminished it. Edited October 9, 2016 by Wondero BioHazard, Miles and Mike Stmria like this Link to comment

I hope it is a reason that I didn't think of, not the former. In the APD there are things you are required to do whether you agree with them or not. In this case I give you the perfect example of why a 13 year old is not allowed in the APD: looking back at your post do you see how you challenged the rule and at the same time assumed the rule was written by an idiot? Well, maybe your brain isn't developed enough yet to see the comparison, or maybe it is. My son is 16 and plays here as well. Even though he comes across very mature most of the time, I wouldn't want him on the force because there are other times where his judgment is so far off from where the Captains want us to be.

Zoex Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 These threads never end well due to trolls. There has been a few times where the age limit was lifted and younger players were allowed to join the APD, in-fact I joined during one of those times. It decreased the level of roleplay coming from cops and increased the amount of misbehavior seen from officers. Due to that, younger players are not allowed to join the APD, as they are held to higher standards. Do not let it discourage you though, you can become a bounty hunter and catch the bad guys and even bring up some amazing Roleplay experiences. Or just become a dirty rebel, like most of the people eventually become. I am locking this here, since the forum memes will keep flowing , think about what I said though. /Locked.
