Cop reward Reduced

[Drix]

Hmm, will the smuggling prize and rob banks reward be reduced as well ? 

[Klaus]

How much can you get from smuggling? The main idea of smuggling was to get weapons not cash

[~Legend~]

I guess some people fringe on abusing the smuggle option to get money, with no roleplay whatsoever.

Certain players seem to enjoy hanging around, waiting for the smuggles and casually telling people in the general chat to come.

Klaus, don't tell me you never got money from it..

Klaus, don't tell me you never got money from it..   

Nope. I seriously haven't lol. The only reason I would smuggle is for guns. Why would I bother smuggling for 500$ or w/e. I'd go rob the bank for 50k

Err so wil lthe cops stuff be Reduced?

Well this topic is same cop vs criminal debate.
This debate can go on forever......without any conclusion.
I think we should have a sticky topic "Cops vs Criminals" for this purpose solely, at least it wont fill other topics with useless crap.

Err so wil lthe cops stuff be Reduced?

Please, you guys decide this question. Coz i hardly try to make money in server, you guys know best if it is too easy to make money...
Try to open ur thinking from your cop/criminal personality ingame..

So if you guys reach any conclusion, lemme know *yawn*
Right now, its the same as i expected.....criminals want it reduced, cops want it to stay same.

true, true, true. Oh, and nice thinking.

Yeah, aXXo, this should be made "Cops vs Criminals" server, I already told it before. 
And yeah, I want it the same, because I think it's fair and equal for both sides  (cops and criminals, as it was discussed), if we discuss the criminal side.

Here's my opinion of what usually happens. Most new people play as a cop, because of the earning and everything. They don't know the principals of RP and usually stick to the /c sus, /c sur(sometimes, not always) and try to kill the suspect. A lot of people do that, so it creates an idea on others people's minds that the cop is always after the money and will shoot at will. However, some cops that are actually looking to RP with the criminals, can't, because the criminals think they will open fire, so they shoot.
So:
(Some) New cops suspect and attack criminals.
Criminals think cops will always shoot at will.
Criminals shoot cops right away, because they think the cops will also open fire.
No one RPs.

It is this way:

No matter what criminals RP, they always stay wanted unless they die/surrender/bribe.
Cops make money in all 3 cases.
So it is always a win-win situation for cops.

Criminals hate that, so their brain cells try some calculation that i never understood.
So they prefer inflicting as much damage as possible on cops before they die.
The more damage they inflict, the more money cops make.
Criminals hate that even more.
Thus, there is lot of hatred between criminals and cops which results in shoot at sight.....no thought of RPing.

I dont blame criminals...they gain nothing by RPing with cops. As Klaus said, ultimately it will lead to their death/surrender/bribe.
Though they do gain some satisfaction by killing a cop ("Yay! i killd 5 pigs today! wheee")
They hate bribe, coz it costs them and it pays cops.

It is hard to change this situation, but heres some suggestions to increase role-play between cops and criminals.

Maybe we should allow criminals to Role-Play an evade, if successful and fair, they should be allowed to request an admin to uncrime.

Or we should remove the auto-sus on murder/cop kill. Cops will have to RP an homicide/investigation. Criminals will have the rights to call lawyer and stuff.

Both of these suggestions make cop work harder, so reduces their reward indirectly

[Frank_Federico]

I liked that idea. One of the things I like to do as a cop is interrogating suspects, and seriously, if a guy kills somebody without no one near to see it IRL, he doesn't get auto-wanted, like if a psychic was helping the police. But still, that idea means no wanted level. So the reward would be a fixed one. Right?

i fought the law and law won!

Yea there's always a "criminals vs cops" element.
In the real world most people are supposed to be "good" and those that commit serious crimes are in the minority.
The police - usually with far more resources are able to track down most things one way or another (for high level crimes).

Cop and Criminal roles are the back bone of the server. It always has been and always will be.

I had thought in aXXo's idea about the lawyer as a way to roleplay, but it's fine as you said, aXXo.
