Good Evening,
We're going to be looking into law enforcement groups that are independent of SAPD/ARPD to become law enforcement agencies the work along side the current. We'll also be considering military groups and intelligence/information organizations. Once a law enforcement group you'll have access to same law enforcement commands as SAPD.
If you are interested, just make your group known to someone of HQ and we'll be watching. :)
Thanks,
Teddy

Awesome ;)

Is the group information somehow supposed to be sent to the HQ, Or is the goal actually to make the group well-known throughout the server?
P.S.
Will the groups be punished by the current authorities for 'Enforcing law without being on duty' , as they were until now?

If you read the full post, you can see that Teddy is saying the faction will have equal rights to enforce law as rest of the factions, but I am guessing they are looking for unique factions that are specializing in something outside of regular, so I doubt the faction will have same extend of jobs as SAPD does, it will be more of 1 type of specialized work.
Good example is crime investigation unit, which can be a good faction depending on script changes and it can be very compatable with current SAPD and FBI.
-
Is there really a need for this? Often even SAPD has 0 players online after the new reforms, is there a player count to support more than 2 law enforcement organisations? And while having a military group could be useful there's not really a need for an intelligence agency as FBI handles that already. Maybe more divisions that specialize in different tasks should be added to SAPD/FBI instead?
-
Generally in my opinion we cannot get enough manpower to keep so many factions open at this stage, but generally this topic doesn't mention they will be added today or in 1 month, it can be even years before they are open, so maybe they just want ideas and suggestions for now.
-

currently the SAPD did get 6 new specializations whilst sacrificing a division and splitting one in two.
FBI had two, but nothing ever came from those to my knowledge.

There is more than enough interest in such factions. It is a good thing that this is finally being done.

Interest by whom? Who's going to lead and join those said factions? Most people that are interested in this kind of roleplay are already in SAPD/FBI, most people that are interested in and are capable of leading a law enforcement organisation already do so in SAPD/FBI and by creating more factions you'd simply take away members those groups already lack.

Are you aware that there's already an official CIA group since about 2012? Up until now, it has lacked any scripting support and as such, this is a good way to prove the groups' worth.

Wow this is great, If Ben was here he would probably re open ADF for this...
I would love to see process on the elections scripts for mayors

ADF is currently semi-open. It is being lead by =AV=Polar. You should ask him about any progress.

That means we can make Argo's version of I.S.I.S? (The one from Archer, not real-life)

This type of information remains classified.

Don't worry, I am only using public info. (think vehicles which were visible)
-
Dedicated Law Enforcement Faction for dealing with Narcotics would be a big thing with the new drug system coming out soon.
-
Pretty much DEA?

Pretty much but needs to be done right if it were to even get anywhere.

xDDD
topic - this group better be recognized/official to get those rights and not just anyone who makes a forum topic about his group.

It will have to be run with high standards to get any sort of support in-game.

What if we fix what's broken right now instead of getting new things to break?

The ideology of only doing one thing at a time is what is broken. I suggest you fix it for yourself. We have enough people with the capability to multi-task and have every intent of doing so to ensure the community, and scripts, progress on multiple fronts.

Would love to see Army in game

We are currently in the talks to give a former military-style group the status for our military.

Business idea.
1. Start DEA
2. Confiscate alot of drugs
3. Smuggle those drugs out without people noticing
4. Find a reliable buyer from mafia
5. $$$
-
Who would be supervising these new groups ? Department of Defense?
-
I might have to get in contact with Ben and try to get ADF back up and running just for this..
-
Would love to restart the Coast Guard project. :cop:
-
I'd love to see that.
CoastGuard and ADF could cooperate very nicely.
And @PlamKnight , I meant until they become official.

How will these groups actively "enforce" the law when they aren't on duty?

Have you considered a scenario where different groups get rights to do duty?

I was talking about unofficial groups. I understand that there are many types of law enforcement groups, but I don't suppose anyone could just call himself a traffic police officer and start pulling over people, no?

It is roleplay, so no reason why they could not. ;)
On a more serious note, groups who will comply with basic standard will get access to the things /duty gives like uniforms and a designation people can see. There has to be a basic standard for the groups as we do not wish to recreate the old situation where it is easy to get in to the law enforcement role and use its advantages.

That seems about right, I would like to see some regulation on this though. Idea uniqueness, and if it is actually possible or not should be taken into considering(As in, 3 military groups would be unnecessary for example).

Nothing wrong with competition, just like with criminal groups the good ones will become stable and grow, the bad ones will fade out.

SRUUUUUUUUUU

Is this going to be community wide or only SA:MP?

If it's SA:MP Boards then it concerns only SA:MP

Time to bring ADF back, I guess.

Good idea. Bring ADF back!

Nice Idea.

I will note, we have already selected a group for the military and no it is not ADF. We will announce the details when it's ready.
-
Apologies for going off topic, but in terms of delivery priority - is this really needed? Looking in-game, we hardly have many cops online. Also, whilst I'm on the subject - are we looking at reinstating the freecop system? Especially since orange dots have been removed - this might be an prudent option to spike activity.

Probably MGI (http://mgi.argonathrpg.com).

This not a moan topic for those who are upset the group they made 5 minutes ago isn't being considered. You've only just now proved you are not the leadership we are seeking for anyways.. good job.

This is actually very interesting and would present unparalleled and unique role play opportunities.

MGI is now an official law enforcement group. It has been granted the Area 69 as it's base and is now the official military force.
I am considering one additional group, which has also maintained official status in the past before. Any other group is welcome to PM with with arguments for considerations.
