RP Enforcement on LSPD/LSSD

[Bigg]

There needs to be some sort of rule when it comes to camping high crime areas, there are VERY often officers sitting on one corner for 10 minutes because they see a group of males acting like they are about to do something just sitting there pretty much powergaming so they can respond instantly and get involved in a situation, this happened to me yesterday and its overall very annoying.

LEO factions can still use voice when no one else can, have body armor, better weapons than most criminals.

So just like real life?

This is a roleplay server,

Then why are changes made for the sake of BALANCE? Balance doesn't exist in roleplay. That's purely a game term.

If you quit because you threw a temper tantrum over being told not to hover camp gang hubs you shouldn’t be here anyway. Especially if your sole purpose for participating with a LEA is to have an advantage over others. 

I like how you have to strawman because you know your argument is non existent.

Enjoy your response times, I guess.

Because it's still important to keep it fun for everybody participating. Otherwise, might as well just open up a Google Doc and write your own story?

Roleplaying is about collaborative storytelling. In our case, it is done through the game being the medium for this. We play games... for fun.

So where is the balance that keeps the game fun for civilians so they don't get constantly robbed by 4 deep cars?

Unrealistic portrayal of robberies and characters which exist only to conduct robberies is bannable, for example:

• driving into the county as a gang member in South Central to conduct a robbery in Paleto Bay for no sensible IC reason (e.g. your path has not realistically led you to Paleto Bay for any discernable reason, this would be a significant drive on an IC basis);
• driving on a dirt bike with masks, not communicating, but pulling up to any pedestrian to conduct a gun-point robbery at drive-by;
• chaining robberies unrealistically, or unrealistic portrayal of a crime spree;
• moving from robbery to robbery and demanding victims move as quickly as possible, or clearly conducting robberies simply to gain OOC assets rather than for roleplay;
• conducting robberies with overuse of force (such as 4 assault rifles) or for the purpose of provoking conflict (seeking to rob people in a gang neighborhood for an excuse to shoot them);
• attempting to kidnap someone for the sole purpose of mugging them.

You can find more under Rule 10)

also including special feature

 

It is forbidden to mug anyone when:

• you're using a vehicle in an unplanned petty mugging for quick cash, unless admin approved;
• you've travelled miles away from your characters' residential anchor to mug someone;
