Police brutality (bug) and suggestions

[[H2K]chaozz]

I have PM'd ron about this already, but it's always good to be re-reminded of things.

1. The bug I want to report really annoys me: Cops get a reward for killing people when they are not wanted.
To me this seems like an easy thing to fix, script-wise.

The bug is heavily exploited by dirty cops. They walk up to you, don't suspect you for anything, but just shoot you down. They receive $500, and you have to re-buy your armor, guns or whatever you had on you. It's annoying!


2. Another cop thing: how can I check if someone has a drivers licence? Is there a command for that? /checklicence [ID] ? if not, there should be! 


3. The last thing is a kind of map glitch (unrelated to cops). More then once I've driven towards an orange blip on my radar, only to find that there is nobody actually at that position on the map. It's usually on the beach, on your way from Los Santos to City Hall. What triggers these fake blips? Or are they people who paused?

1. There were some problems in killing and reward. We are testing a fixed version. BTW many times it showed reward, but no money was given.
2. There is a command /registration, but in the current version it is broken, shows your own license. Already fixed in test.
3. Next time if you see it when I am in game, call me... usually I can find the reason.

There might be someone in a helicopter. But usually the dot isnt moving...
Happens to me all the time...

As far as the fake blip goes, I know some interiors make you seem like you're somewhere else. When im in my house, it shows me on the map as at a different elevation and above water near LV....and my house is in Idlewood!

 Yes there are dirty cops, me and Grove could not leave the respawn because they had 10 cops guarding and killing

[Decy]

I was there at grove. People where being suspected for silly things at grove just because they could get shot, it was like world war 3 obviously the police had the upper hand because of the weapons.

A big part of the problem is the number of cops.
Most of the cops on the server have little to do, so they pull over people, or ram them off the road, demand that you leave the car, and either /su dangerous driving, or blow your head off.
Please can we have an admissions proceedure for the cops? Or something for newer players to earn money with, as many people play as cop simply for the lucrative arrest funds - and the free Desert Eagle.

N.B. This is not an attack on all of the police - some of them are damn good at RPing, it's just at the moment the majority of cops are new/retarded/insane in the membrane/colour blind ("I am NOT wanted, i am just a triad!" - how many times have i heard/said that).

Btw - @ Chaozz's suggestion about the $ cops make - nice idea. I think everyone has been shot by a dirty cop at sometime.

[Decy]

We should do a test run i reckon. Get about 5 trustworthy lads, put them in triad clothes and purposely abide the law without doing any crime whatsoever. Then report back saying how many times they got killed by a cop and who the cop was etc.

[Adam_Cooper]

Thats good, but for Civilians I dont think they (Or Not-Wanted Criminals) should lose 500 dolalrs each kill.

[[H2K]chaozz]

I got shot yesterday by a bad cop while I wasn't wanted. I got $500 as compensation. It looks like the script got fixed on that point. Well done!

[Red_Clown]

I have seen some amusing people (wont say who) mking a mockery of abusive cops - letting themselves be spawnkilled by two Dming cops, who didn't realise that they were losing $s until the others had gained a couple of thousand.

[Adam_Cooper]

What kind of a monster would do that!  :conf:

[Red_Clown]

Funny (and probably, rich) monsters. 
Who needs a job when you've got DMing cops on the server?

[Aragorn]

The server is new...
We thought we'll make it one by one - organizing all parts of roleplaying...
But we did not think server will become popular as soon as it opened...

Admins are busy with both servers...

So all we need - good roleplayers that can organize a stuff on server...

I already explained in other topic - as server is new - all of players have a possibility of growing as for server's team, so for Argonath community...

So everyone will find himself what he wants: to have a lot of money on server by letting cops kill him for nothing, or to build the best ever RPG community, by explaining the cops what should do and what shouldn't do...

Of cos it will be the most point for me - organize admin stuff... That is not meaning - "whoa, I can kick/ban/banana pricks!"...

If you ll notice - admins ban at once only hackers... With others - they try to explain more...

as for police force - I gave the current admins a chance to pick up and lead the police departments...
Only two admins applyed... And it is not weird, cos leading the police departments is the same hard work as watching the server... And cooperate both - you have to be too active, that is hard...

It means, now I'll start recruit on the government jobs - players...

In close future I'll post the vacancies of City Hall...
