From the eyes of a new player, freecop

[Omri]

I'm not talking only about kidnaps as, I do talk in general as they can learn by observing the higher police taking actions against the kidnappers / suspect or who ever it is. Trust me, you can learn very much just with observing and learning how other plays, if they have observed in a while they will start take that knowledge that they learned into themself.

yes, but theres also the opposite side of view of freecops.

some freecops are bad, others they are not bad..

I have had one freecop telling me to shut up or he will shoot me.. while i was trying to yell "I was getting robbed!!"

one freecop teamed with another planting drugs on me via /give.. i resisted arrest and drove farr away, and i eventually had an admin check the cop's drugs.. i only had the 1g that he planted on me(he had 68g).

one freecop pulled me over for hitting light poles and spinning around in the grass.. and he just talked to me if i realize that im doing somehting wrong.. and let me off with a warning.

and my most favourite: one freecop suspected me for jumping on top of his cop car (while i was thinking really deep in a CB convo)

but my best solution, is because i have a good memory for bad people.. i've had bad freecops in my playtime, and i remember them.. so next time, i get more cautious around them... and i will definately remember that cop who planted drugs on me i wont be trusting him anymore.


So what regulars should do, is this:

1. pullover if theres a "freecop" asking you to do so..
2. he comes, and RP's or maybe "cuts through the cheese" and says "pay me $100 for speeding" or "ill let you off with a warning"
3. if he suspects you for speeding, /report ID
4. remember the layout of his nickname if hes a bad one, if he comes another time, try contacting an admin to spectate the player for any type of "abuse" as some would call it.
5. if the freecop has become legit (they do, over time and training etc.), you may clean their slates.
6. if freecop is still bad, that admin you contacted earlier is probably spectating, and if the freecop tries planting anything, or even hurting you with a baton in a alley, the admin can tell him not to do that next time

i AM going to feel sorry for those "big drug carriers" with 2000g+ of drugs.. /frisk can be another tool for a bad freecop to "act" legit, and tries to search you every 30 minutes under the sun..with your drugs for them to take you to jail and w/e but these "bad" freecops dont continue their behavior more than a week.. because they would ave learned some police codes, and what is suspectable and what isnt..

but remember, if you know you are being pulled over for speeding, that "bad" freecop probably only knows to /su whenever somebody is "breaking" the law. So you can say "John (5) says: ((speeding = you issue a ticket for $100))" as that may help a freecop trying to do his best..

imagine not being potty trained, you would ask yourself "how do i use this toilet?" you would need somebody to show you how to flush, and how to wipe.. if you didnt know.. you could possibly get a slimy butt from not wiping.. get ass ulcers.. not good..

thats what newbie freecops are.. they are not fully potty trained

I have seen freecops that is better trained than ARPD officers, then do not come here and judge them all because you had some bad situtations with them.

i meant that around %75 of the very first time freecops dont know what to do.. as they might /su you for speeding when they dont know that they have to ticket you..

but over time.. they learn how to handle things that a first timer freecop doesnt know..

thats what some regulars think when they see a freecop.. they think all of them dont know how to RP, and saying "omg, the cop did not RP at ALL, he justed sussed me! ABUSE!!!"

what I normally do, is give a freecop about 2 chances to get things right.. like if he /su'd me for speeding.. i surrender.. and contact any admins about it, and to tell the freecop that speeders need to be pulled over for a ticket.. and if they dont bother pulling over.. then /su for evading.

if he does it again.. that i surrender again, blahblah.. but if he continues.. then ill contact the same admin that sees the same thing happening over and over, the freecop could get a copban, because of metagaming (he has the knowledge of pulling over, but just /su everybody for moar cash)

moneris is right there, 75% of freecop is bad, the others got potential to be a good cop

thats where we, officers, learn from if we have a kidnapping we will NOT announce this on the radio,
only if none responds, and we only call ppl we trust, no matter there ranks

Sorry to say this, its just quite pathetic what you guys are saying now. You can't just say 75 % without analyses closely how many are abusing and not, you are just going after what you seen and the judgements about freecops.

[Oliver]

From my experience I have only seen that around 5% of the total freecops are corrupt and don't even WANT to learn... There are loads of potential freecops at the moment..

I remember when I was paying my ticket 5-6 months ago and a freecop came along, /su-d me for bribing cop and shot me on the spot. That was weird :/

I have been "abused" 3-4 times during my 6 months here.

[Xeuq]

They just need to learn rules. Thats all.
But yeh, there is many better Freecops than Officers.

[Bianconeri]

many better freecops then officers, no way that that is true,
and ok maybe not 75% but certainly 50% of all players that ever become cop
are not interested, not willing to learn and abusing everyone,
im SAPD Trainer and i know how it is with the training and wanting to learn

As I remember you, you were one of the WORST freecops in the whole server, but look at yourself now, an ARPD sergeant...
See what my point is?

[Bianconeri]

im 1 of the worst freecops? i dont think so Legend 
i have never been an abuser and always serious cop, i have never done anything else then being a cop,
you are remembering someonelse

You really were a bad freecop, Murderboy..
This is not a flame.. This is my opinion.

[The_Wolf]

You really were a bad freecop, Murderboy

Indeed.
Also, WE ARE NOT FLAMING YOU, Bian, we are just saying what you were, not what you are now.
I remember you as a pretty non-friendly guy and not exactly the one who was accepting a tip from a senior, if you know what I mean...

[Matthew_Cipricla]

Yes, before I use to think that freecops were corrupt and want to screw up the server. But recently I have seen alot of freecops who are very helpful and want to use their power for good. Great RP on radio and on patrol. But if they keep asking for promotions....well I cant say much since I think we all were like that when we first joined ARPD.

[James_Alterlis]

1. N**b freecop of some or all bad abuses
2. Good freecop who become officer+

Don't worry about them, evade them, report them, kill them :O, and set PM off  :razz:
Freecop is not apart of ARPD/FBI/SWAT so don't care them
