I think that was addressed above. Not sure what that has to do with people preferring a proper conclusion to a story arc, though. 1 Link to comment

The point of this thread was to ask why PD don’t seek CKs on players who do not show the correct accountability. My point is and was that no one seems to accept accountability anymore, as a broader issue, and reports should always be put forward in instances where a player’s roleplay is questionable.

Ellix Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Well yeah, everyone knows you can just report stuff. But the purpose of this thread was to discuss the issue, and get other people's thoughts and input on it. It's kind of pointless to basically shut down the discussion with "just report it."

Cara Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 The point of this discussion was to ask why PD aren’t applying for CKs on seasoned criminals. ‘Report it’ is very much the answer, if there is a way for PD to get CKs that they aren’t utilising already. Link to comment
lux Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 An old server I used to play on SAMP had an alternate RICO system which worked quite nicely - where basically it was a 3 strike system. Three serious charges on your record (these can stack in one arrest if it's multiple murders etc.) would result in a life sentence (CK). I've never been arrested on this server so I'm not all that sure of what actually happens for multiple charges or murders, but it does seem like the punishment doesn't fit the crime sometimes.

HappyToker Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 One example that happened a few days ago was Jordan Crowell, a whole swat team was out on finding him and once they did, they tried to apprehend him. He shot back tho and a whole squad fired on him, causing him to die. Admin basically said "Yeah, you'll have to CK" and well, JC doesn't play GTA:W anymore... Link to comment

And that is why people are held accountable for their character's actions. Surely, losing your character which you've spent tens or hundreds of hours on sucks, but that's the cost of being reckless and careless. Whether people leave over pity offenses like this, reflects their quality nature and whether they just really strive to roleplay or to win. In my humble opinion, if you're going to leave a community based on the fact that you lost your character, due to your OWN negligence, you shouldn't be playing here in the first place. It's the cliche play-to-win stereotype and the community would be much better without them. Back on topic, I agree with the fact that PD should be actively pushing for character kills where applicable; because it'll simply force people to rise their standards and worry about their characters, something which in my opinion has no disadvantages. 1 Link to comment
Tennplugg Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 I believe CK's should be forced a lot more. If you try to get yourself killed / pulls out a gun to get killed by PD to avoid prison time. It should be a instant CK. If you're disregarding your life and end up dying. Instant CK. Maybe then people will value their character and not RP like a retard. Link to comment
