I've personally handled plenty of traffic collision investigations, and I really don't hesitate to mark a report as "One or more officer(s) are at fault or share fault for causing the collision and further follow up is necessary." if an officer is at fault.

LEOs drive 120 mph through intersections because the car they're driving drives 125 mph through intersections.

Most crashes happen due to at least one individual speeding.

People who lag or know that they have sync issues shouldn't be driving at 100+ mph through the city to begin with.

Going double the speed limit should have some sort of consequence. I'd be fine with someone speeding slightly getting a small fine. But if you go 20, 30, or even 60 miles per hour over the speed limit, it should have some sort of IC consequence. A points system, or doubling of the fine at each 15/20 miles per hour you're overspeeding would be a possible deterrent. Edit: Let's say you're doing 120 miles per hour in the city center, where you're allowed to do 60 miles per hour. And let's say the overspeeding increments is at 15 miles per hour. This would mean that ( 120 - 60 ) / 15 = 4, you're overspeeding 4 times. Any fine you'd be getting will be multiplied by 4. Speeding first time? $10000 fine, second time? $20000 fine. 3rd time? $30000.

A few years ago this would be seen as an OOC issue, and that cops aren't meant to "police the server". But when you'd suggest the admin team to get tools to monitor individuals racing at 120 mph+ in the city center in dimension zero, the staff team would respond with saying that they only administrate reactively and don't proactively spectate individuals, even in dimension 0 and even if they're going 120 miles per hour in the city center they wouldn't spectate due to privacy concerns. I always had the opinion that these concerns for privacy are null and void if you're going 120 miles per hour in the city center in dim 0. I'm glad that public opinion is swaying, because groups have gotten a lot more bold and the problem is much worse than it was a few years ago.

Speed bumps don't (really) work in GTA:V. Any bumps increases a vehicle's speed. I've made a suggestion here in the Community Focus Discord about possible solutions to the people rampantly driving 100 mph in the city center. https://discord.com/channels/1089677793161388074/1204904337743024159

Detailed Description Instead of showing the character's mask name in the punishments, show the character name in the punishments. YES: [00:01:58] Admin Jolagh admin jailed Jean Williams for the reason: [R19 Violation - Unacceptable animations in public.] for 60 minutes NO: [00:02:09] Admin Jolagh admin jailed Mask_8C9F1_54 for the reason: [R19 Violation - Unacceptable animations in public.] for 60 minutes Relevant Commands/Items N/A How will it benefit the server? Enhance transparency: It is generally good for the community to be aware of who a notorious rulebreaker is, knowing who a notorious rulebreaker is has saved me plenty of headaches. Promote accountability: People should be held accountable for their actions, but my general mindset of when a masked individual gets ajailed is "That person practically got away with it." and I can't be the only one thinking like this. Name and shame.

I'd be fine with this, as long as you're immune from breaking your leg when you just entered an interior. Even with my game and RAGE on an NVMe SSD and a gigabit fiberoptic connection with 14 ping to the server, I still fall through interiors sometimes.

LMAO imagine if you have to do actions / coms like in those GTA V gangster voice RP servers as an admin punishment. I guess that forcing players to run around an admin jail interior and press buttons a hundred times (with a cooldown ofc) is more of a punishment than having them just idle there.

As @DLimit said before, ajails should be used as warnings, and (temp)bans should be used as punishments. Verbal/written warnings should only be used for very mild rule violations.

I seem to get this randomly. But often when the server is at peak population. This has been happening a lot more often recently, and the only fix is to just restart GTA:World. I've probably got recordings of the lag. It also sends my GPU into overdrive where usually my game is at about 20 to 30% 3D operations, it suddenly just maxes out when the lag happens.

If I were a business owner, employee or customer in a city with a crime rate as high as Los Santos, I'd also want the business owner to place metal detectors at the front door.

This texture bug is doomed to never be fixed, even though I have the correct texture to fix it and can easily pass it over to a modder.

For the CCW issue, I'd recommend you to lobby to your IC representative to change the SHAFT Act. A CCW is generally meant for a private individual to defend themselves, and the SHAFT Act should provide the necessary wiggle room for a GuardCard licensed individual to operate and is meant for commercial operations.

As soon as you mentioned it I thought of it, I've tried to find the announcement but I haven't been able to find it. But from the sounds of it, policy has already changed.

I think that @Vash Baldeus is mentioning some of the houses which when introduced required a clean criminal record. If I recall properly, I think these houses were the ones along Chumash.

Is this limit a global limit such as a fixed number of doors, or is it proximity / view distance based?

If you think I'm worried about snowballs at all, then you're wrong kiddo.

I've watched plenty of Russian dashcam footage to know that this could've ended much differently, if the handling were to be realistic.

Why am I not surprised that the King of Idlewood has reading comprehension problems?
