In such scenarios it's best to reach out to an admin to help you out if neither Public Works, LSSD or LSPD get back to you. Link to comment

There is no way to actually deal with this IC if it is a mistake other than being willing to go without your car for weeks because it is so slow. They have one day, 8pm every Saturday where you can contest, can't make it? Tough. Wait until next week. It's honestly one of the dumbest features of this game since half the people who work in this role are complete jobsworths who don't even attempt to RP. Seen one guy get surronded by 10 guys telling him to fuck off and he just ignored everyone and ticketed the car, zero fear, zero RP. Cars desync, this is the unfortunate reality that we need to accept. Your car can be moved onto the sidewalk, crushed by another car who spawns on it and then it's blocking the road and someone can impound it for blocking the road, there's no way of checking whether it's desync, abandoned, parked like that on purpose. /Vpark your vehicle if you're going off for a longer duration of time, there's really no way around it. I wouldn't label half the people in LEO factions or Public Works the way you do, just because you've maybe had a bad run-in with someone. Link to comment

Jennie Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I have enough headaches irl and I don't want more headaches when playing on the server because someone decided to troll with my vehicles, Too much bureaucracy and hours reporting on the forum via IC, it's easier to use /vp every time I get out of the vehicle, even if it's to go change a top and get back to the car 20 seconds later. 2 3 Link to comment

Sometimes people /vg multiple cars when coming online, and they're not going from spot to spot just to despawn all of their cars. Link to comment

Cheezy Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 The impound script needs a re-work, half the time it is impossible to figure out who even impounded your vehicle. You either fall victim to theft or just some city worker on a grind to meet a video game quota. Relying on staff to tell you takes up reports and takes away from important reports. I think the server needs to have the ability to call a line to find what department impounded it, the location of the lot, and allow for a fee to be paid for un-impounding the vehicle if you don't wish to wait the time. If you lost the vehicle due to arrest or detainment, you should still need to to wait the standard amount of time and pay a fee to get it removed earlier to combat abuse from repeat offenders.
