You know this thing, Freecup? Freecop! Thats it. Rather than getting angry, the cop was most likely a new guy on the job. Everyone has to learn at some point. I wouldn't even report the guy. I'd get his ID and try to communicate with him and teach him about these kinds of things. You can't expect people to join the server and automatically know the ropes.I personally havent been on PD duty before shouldnt there be some kind of tutorial thing? It would prevent most of these problems.

Show them the locker room
Show them the jails
Show them the desk
Show them the donut safe
Show them the investigation rooms
DESK STAFF could teach new guys so much more...

Again as a civilian not an officer I cant really relate but as a civilian I can say I have more trust and respect towards regulars, yesterday is one of the reasons why..

However, Jaaskaa and myself have a different structure to teach new players for RS5 produced by you .. unless it has been changed :lol:Sshhhhhh..... ;) That is because I know that desk staff is not going to be a reality, although I might make some additional suggestion.
Sshhhhhh..... ;) That is because I know that desk staff is not going to be a reality, although I might make some additional suggestion.I agree with all this.
The main problem as you see from the post of Jimmy is that players play for money, not for roleplay and meeting/teaching others.

Well actually Gandalf, Skyhawk and I saw your post and pitched the idea to Paul about having a support division that handles desk work, dispatch, prisoner affairs... But if your saying there will be a script in place we can just forget about it. We had ways of attracting players to the idea :PForget about the script. I have launched an idea in upper command to see if we can make it attractive in RS5 without having to resort to manual intervention as we would currently need.

Anyhow Desk Staff, cool story :p.
But, it would be AWSOME if we had Desk Staff.
*Wonders away thinking of the endless Role-Play...*
Tho sitting around in one single interior, in a game which is made for exploring and traveling... Hmm..
I wonder why we have only bureaucrats playing here.You know noone would do it because it's not paid :rofl:
Go to LSPD and stand behind the desk, greet anyone who comes in and do the job....
Official guidelines and training requirements are being set up right now in preparation of RS5 with the use of scripted commands.
That is all i can say right now.. but the main point is that it'll work out properly with the other suggestions proposals towards the introductions to the inexperienced officers.
You'll find out about everything each time we officially release the final structures.
So remain patient for now until myself and Jaaskaa prepare everything in a well shaped manner with the structures provided by Ronnel.
Will there be Desk Staff? Or will they be replaced by scripts?

Los Santos Police Department Desk Staff
Dear officers, Cadets and all the others that read my post,
Since a few weeks i opened up the LSPD desk for information, investigations, police dispatch and control headquarter.
It's a very interesting and busy thing to do, yet not much people have the attention of going to work at the desk, since it causes less action then being out there, on the field, yet the desk is an interesting and apart experience which only gives good credit to all officers and the working of SAPD.
Tasks of the desk staff:
- Operating the information desk
- Controlling the dispatch radio
- Investigation of criminals
- maintaining the stock of donuts inside the department.
- maintaining order in the LSPD compound garage.
Operating the information desk:- Many citizens visit the police department everyday. Most likely they will have a specific question, which needs a specific answer. As you are operating the information desk, it is your task to assure these citizens get their answer, document or anything else they ask you.
The information desk is also the spot where abused criminals can report theirselves in for an investigation.Controlling the dispatch radio:- The dispatch control room is located next of the main desk, it is a small room that also has a window that views on the main lobby of the police dept. As dispatch controller, you can help the police officers to locate the suspect, updating locations, updating of the situation of a crime, or simply dispatch units to a location coming in trough 911..
When you are controlling the dispatch, you can mark yourself as dispatch in the police radio (/r) as [DISPATCH].
Example:
Police Radio: [DISPATCH] All LSPD units, please be advised of a 10-66 in the area of Idlewood., over
When another department dispatch loggs on, it is advised to use regional tags to seperate all dispatchers from each other.
Example:
Police Radio: [LSDISPATCH] All LSPD units, please be advised of a 10-66 in the area of Red County. If the suspect continues his way to San Fierro, please report to SFDISPATCH, over.Investigation of criminals- Once a suspect turns himself in at the LSPD information desk, you can investigate the suspect in a investigation room. This greatly adds more perspective of the crime itself, since desk staff has no interferance with the crime itself and can thereby judge from a neutral opinion.
If the investigation goes in a bad way, or the suspect doesn't agree with his punishment, a court case can be made in name of the LSPD desk staff to investigate via the court of law.Maintaining the stock of donuts- All officers need their donuts. The desk staff must ride everyday to Rusty Brown's to assure the donut stock doesn't run out.maintaining order in the LSPD compound garage.- The compound can be a little messy sometimes, as desk staff you can organise the compound, make sure all PD vehicles are ready to depart, filled up and free of damage. Also keep an eye on the police gate, that it doesn't get left open neither.
If you'd like to join the desk staff, don't hesistate to give it a try. You do not have to apply or anything, the only thing i'd like to point out with this topic is that being behind the desk doesn't neccesarily means 'boring'. There is alot of fun to be discovered inside the department itself.
Dispatches are mostly appreciated and are never done with their work. There is always a tread which can be updated from the department itself.
I hope to see more desk staff in the nearest future,

Will there be Desk Staff? Or will they be replaced by scripts?No scripts are needed for this, at all. All possibilities are there already, no need for a robot handling you, a person will do better.
I think a good idea is making such script such as /rules where ARPD officers will read the rules and some regulations on duty.
