Some cases go really fast, a matter of 2-3 days, but long cases that are taken to the very end? 2-3 weeks is expected. Link to comment

Kappaurel Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 4 minutes ago, Jankara said: Remove the points system. Trials have slowed down massively since the introduction. The risk of 30 points and a life sentence creates an artificial pressure for people to fight their cases. It's all also a total OOC logic. At the same time move the biggest long term penalty from 20 days up to 30. Then with life beyond that punishment remains purely IG The risk of 30 points makes the risk for criminals of losing their characters real. It is one of the best things this system has, and 30 points are A LOT OF POINTS, and 30 points won't necessary mean life. Couldn't agree more with the longest penalty to be moved up, up to 60 days even. 1 Link to comment

I do think people are more resistant to a record these days and as such defences are more rigorous, which makes prosecutions more complicated and in turn all takes a lot of time. That said rhe player base has doubled but we aren't getting many people apply to join. More members means faster trials. Link to comment

I feel like most people don't know how many points they've got which only makes them more reckless. 3 strike system is relatively easy in a meaning - "Hmm. If I was already arrested twice on felony charges I most likely will try to stay low". instead of thinking "Hmm I probably got like 10 points so I can go out of my way and do some more crime hoping it doesn't reach 30".

It makes sense but 3 strikes is like 30 points so designed to force people to go straight. Ultimately on a rp server players don't suddenly go straight. They are committed illegal players and will push on. Edited April 12, 2021 by Jankara Link to comment

Imagine a local gang member showing up to a police station requesting to access their criminal record. Sounds like bs honestly. Link to comment

DLimit Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 Nothing to complain about. I had enjoyed every experience, even if one civil case took months to complete. Link to comment
