  1. The supreme court took up a NY case on good cause gun rights. This applies to all states.
  2. With the recent ruling of the Supreme Court striking good cause down in most aspects, don't see the reason to keep it. It's not realistic, which is what we strive to be.
  3. Obviously for the games purpose it should. Most speed cameras require an approval process. Also if the vehicle is stolen, the fine needs to go to the registered owner. It shouldn't be the person driving it as you may not know who it is.
  4. It would be nice if you could put them down IC. Maybe an object that can be placed by police and moved around at times. Would also be nice if police had trailers they could tow to locations for speed enforcement that would just fine vehicles.
  5. My interaction is positive. They saved me from a wolf one day. I will say, that I think you guys should have been the State Police and a division within.
  6. Oh that was a long time ago. I remember VG was part of it. It was before LS-RP's times.
  7. What surprises me is how we strive for realism but wish to remain with outdated practices to avoid greater accountability. Here’s the flaw with that logic. The criminals or illegal role players should be strongly in support for body cameras. I say this simply because without them, evidence such as interactions or car positioning can’t be used as an excuse to stop illegal actions from being introduced. Without any camera or video evidence on the table it works in favor of the police officer as the legal system relies mostly on the officers word and requires little evidence. As a member of Internal Affairs with LSPD I can cite numerous cases where cops have gotten off because of our dash-cam policy, with many interactions occurring off camera and out of view. There’s very few cases where an officers word is not taken as evidence in the courts. TLDR: Bodycams ensure greater accountability and help the illegal role players rather than hurt them. It levels the playing field and is another check against false and unjust arrests where people have to serve days in prison.
  8. I’m sorry to say but until the server makes properties readily available then it’s not fair. If all I can find on the marketplace is a trailer for sale due to the housing climate on here and I have a Pariah then so be it. This is supply and demand. If houses were readily available then I’d agree with your argument.
  9. So the solution is to go OOC and attempt to get information which can be obtained IC through various avenues like the courts and police departments themselves? Brand pens write differently. Different brand dash-cams function differently.
  10. Go look it up on the manufacturer specifications by obtaining or figuring out what camera we use. I mean this could all be addressed and figured out IC or by a subpoena from the courts. PD’a don’t often label exactly how their cameras operate to the public unless specifically requested or through a FOIA request.
  11. It would depend on the manufacture of the dash-cam. This is also not something the general public usually knows. In the PD it’s clarified in our manual. I think it should be based off actual manufacturers specifications. Many police dash-cam’s have video of 24 hours saved to the hard drive of the camera regardless of activated or not. I would imagine this is based on the camera we roleplay having. I only know about Watchguard specifically which is not what LSPD role plays as having.
  12. This is exactly the truth. You had to experience it first hand by being in the faction. His actions didn’t impact or hurt the people on the outside. It hurt the people on the inside. These changes that are mentioned were something that we were already moving to as a faction. People went from LT to Police Officer II merely because they weren’t friends. People had OOC targets on them. For a lot, it felt less like a game and more like a beached.
  13. Mostly everyone above is a member of the clique. It’s a group of individuals that hang out in a locked channel and seldom speak with anyone outside of their group, minus a few who are perfectly fine. All policies changed weren’t bad and I can’t dispute that. I’m only speaking about the conduct OOOCLY. We are a roleplay server after all. You immediately implanted primary and secondary assignments which was a disaster from the start. Low level people, outside of your clique, began to see demotions. Secondary assignments or assignments not see as “important” were neglected. As a result, people left those areas for the primary assignments. Then there’s Marquis Wilson. I’ll try to remain professional on this subject, but he was known to be on a fast track up. In fact, I recall management stepping in because he was skipping ranks. The same was done for the inner circle people. The issue and why I believe their removal is justified centers on their OOC conduct. They didn’t act very Faction Leader like. They ignored people and simply attended to their agenda. They only cared about people in their group and it can be seen across the department. The fifty+ complaints were not a mystery. It was a faction in turmoil. I applaud server management for taking the appropriate action against them. While I think it was delayed a bit too long, it’s nonetheless greatly appreciated.
