Traffic situations in Argonath RPG.

[jovanca]

If CBF was online, you better be treating cops like deities.
Our rules will remain the minimal needed to stop players who wish to disturb the fun in playing from doing so, not more and not less.

If you need rules to fix people not caring about the laws, you got problems

You keep saying the same things m8. It's not about the laws it's about common sense. It's non-rp to drive on a sidewalk, etc. This shouldn't be a traffic law but a server rule instead - rp driving. This will prevent from people breaking such rules as cop baiting - recklessly driving just to get suspected.

Pingster, you are part of the management or owners?
You sound like you're the one with permissions to adjust, edit, change, remove and add the rules.

m8 it will also prevent people from having fun m8, if you want to drive like a goody two shoes then do so m8, I don't, and if the cops want to do something about it m8, they can do it m8.

So yeah m8, no one wants a server where cops can go "omg admins I pulled him over but he didn't listen to me, please ban" m8.

No, I'm one of the rare few who've spent time reading to avoid looking dumb, you two should try that

Lol again non-sense. I never said that people should be forced to RP a traffic stop, they got full rights to evade, and that shouldnt be taken away. They shouldn't be stunting, driving as if they were blind and doing other non-rp stuff. Point of this server is to RP, wanna have fun driving? Feel free to go to a stunt server.

Just to explain the underlined part: Ofcourse, point of the server is to have fun, but trust me or not, there are people who have fun RPing. Some people have fun DMing, does that mean they should be allowed to do so? No. So why would they be allowed to do other stuff which does not go under RP and affects the other people in-game, who are maybe trying to rp?

Perhaps if majority followed traffic laws, minority would be pulled for traffic laws violation and less would scream "omg adins i pulled him but he no rp pls ban"
If majority would stop the random hate towards SAPD, the kind "i hate because i hate dont tell me what to do im gangster",  the minority would switch lanes purposely to block the responding vehicle and "accidentally" cause a crash.

Specially criminal "families" who has members which will purposely do such things just because they're in criminal family, and no other reason.

Just imagine, you're having some family RP, driving in convoy and we purposely crash into you because we don't like criminals just as we're cops.

[jovanca]

Also, trust me i'm against ban as punishment. There are many other ways people should be punished for their actions. Ban should be reserved for those who really have no intention of playing by the rules of the community and constantly break them, and not for those who mess up once in a while.

I'm way to lazy to read all what was said in posts above but I will only say this...

It's not admins job to handle a guy that doesn't know how to drive properly in the road....It's police job...They have to enforce the "road Rules" not admins...So police has to get the ass online and enforce those rules...Otherwise don't complaing about people not knowing how to drive....SAPD is not script on road rules at all.....SAPD has to really be more strict....the SAPD at the moment has a chicken heart and having mercy....enforce the road rules and see how will people change....

They shouldn't be stunting, driving as if they were blind and doing other non-rp stuff.

Why not, be a cop and stop them then m8, if you can't, get some skills and stop them then m8, and if you still can't, maybe you shouldn't be on the streets m8, maybe you should be sitting behind a desk instead m8, cos the streets of Los Santos are too rough for ya m8.

So why would they be allowed to do other stuff which does not go under RP and affects the other people in-game, who are maybe trying to rp?

Cos this isn't a srs rp server m8 with rules that tell you what is and isn't rp, and if you want to rp m8, you can turn any scenario in a rp, even if it "does not go under RP" m8. And if something affects your rp m8, you should try and make it part of the rp m8. As Ceph said,

People believe that they are entitled to full control over the outcome of the rp and whine when it doesn't go the way they want, which completely ruins the fun.

So unless there's someone intentionally harassing your rp, ie, DMing everyone there, carbombing you, carjacking you or being a complete dick just to ruin the RP, stop moaning and make it a part of the rp m8, it's not that hard

Just imagine, you're having some family RP, driving in convoy and we purposely crash into you because we don't like criminals just as we're cops.

You would get rekt, here's a newsflash, criminal families do a better job of RP than cops, and they don't mind minor inconveniences such as you crashing into them, they'll make it a part of the rp they're having, because they don't need full control over rp situation to have fun.





tl;dr - stop being lame

You know, i'm one of those criminals. I'm not a cop, and every day i have to watch people driving around like idiots, not only speeding and breaking the traffic rules, but ruining roleplay scenes as well. You tell me to turn that into RP? Guess what most of them don't give a fuck to RP, thats why they behave the way they behave. Those who care about RP will RP, and they wont be driving around like a 12 years old scared girl who steps on the gas closes her eyes.

[jovanca]

I could be one of those driving around like a dumb, but whats the point of that? You can keep saying that this is a light RP server, but it still is a RP server, not a free-roam, and should be taken more seriously.

When a new player joins Argonath, and the first thing he sees are people ramming, driving like dumbs and shit like that, and he's looking for an actual RP server, what do you think, will he stay? I think not.

Argonath has great script, and also great members, yet that's not enough. People complain cos there are only 30 people online, max 50, yet we're not doing stuff to make people come and stay. We need to show Argonath as a better place to be, also show them that we really do RP here.

Adding traffic (/)rules is not a solution for all of the problems argonath has, but it's a start.

Tell us about one of these ruined rps m8, I don't believe you m8 that you had no way of involving whatever happened into whatever you m8 were doing in one way or another m8.


And yes m8, I'm telling you m8, turn that into rp m8, I bet you m8 you haven't even tried m8, so stop having a sissy fit m8 just because people don't play the same way you do m8.


Guess what m8, most people will respond to an opportunity to rp m8, as long as you m8 don't approach them same way you're acting right now m8, cos that's just hilarious.


Adding traffic rules is a start into engraving the tombstone m8

Thanks for turning another topic into absolute garbage.
If you want to discuss something then discuss it. If you want to run around going "m8" "m8" then jog on.

You don't belive me? Ok. I'm with my gang in a car, we're driving down the street, guy keeps jumping with his bmx on our car roof. Tried RPing he ignored, tried talking to him OOCly, he ignored. Called admins, not a rulebreak. Went out of car, tried rping once again by taking out my gun and warning him to fuck off, he drove away. Entered my car again, few seconds later he comes again.
