As deputy Sheriff, it's Eddie's job to make sure qualified and nondanger individuals crossing cities and towns within the state along with his dedicated Partners.

Hello dear players. We are looking towards improving the standards of the server for all the players. This means that we're looking to reduce the amount of trolling in the server, annoying actions that are purely done to bother another party of players, generally uncivil behavior that doesn't contribute to the gameplay positively and improve the quality of scenes that occur. We understand the large majority here enjoy the endless action and shootouts that the server brings. However, even those activities can be civilized. Even those activities can exclude toxic behavior, trolling, annoying behavior and the series of other negative actions that somehow became standardized here. By reiteration of existing rules and implementation of new rules, we will limit certain behaviors and acts. These are applicable to everyone regardless of whether they are business group, criminal group or police group. For the period of two weeks after the publishing of this topic, players will first be verbally informed of the violations of these newly implemented changes. After two weeks have passed, the punishments will be escalated based on severity of rulebreak and the scale the rulebreak affected other players and scenarios. 1. ANNOYING / CHILDISH / IMMATURE BEHAVIOR AND DISRUPTING SCENES From here on, you will be punished if you intentionally bother other players, by any kind of annoying, unreasonable, or disruptive behavior. Some common examples: • You see a group of players holding a roleplay activity (let's say marathon event by government), group of players running on the road. You decide to follow them and horn non-stop at them, shouting "MOVE!!!!", "FUCK YOUR MARATHON" and so on. That classifies as annoying behavior as you can simply drive away using a different route. • Randomly approaching cops who established a perimeter with barriers due to an ongoing situation, shouting "FUCK YOU COPS", or destroying the barriers, driving through the scene repeatedly. That classifies as annoying behavior as you are in no way involved with the scene, yet you're being an annoyance to those who are apart of it. Find something else to do. • This also applies to cops who disrupt civilian's or criminal's activities. In example, when a group of players are having a roleplay activity that doesn't involve shooting or hostility, and the police show up and begin ramming, or shooting. 2. ADMINISTRATIVELY PUNISHING ABUSIVE POLICE OFFICERS This is another step we're taking in order to increase the trust of players in police. Law enforcement agencies are official server factions. They therefore must be of certain standards. If a police officer randomly shoots somebody who is uninvolved in a situation under claims of "corruption" - that will be classified as DM just like it would be for any other player. Furthermore, making somebody suspected just as they are about to lose previous suspections, with intent of extending their wanted time, is also considered abuse and will be administratively punished. Randomly suspecting players who haven't done anything will also be considered script abuse. In general, more abusive or malicious actions will be punished administratively by staff rather than "ICly" by faction leaders. However, important to note that corruption in roleplay is allowed. Roleplayed corruption classifies as being corrupt and the corruption is roleplayed all the way. Examples: taking bribery, releasing friends or bribed players from jail, kidnap and torture of prisoners, and so on. Just claiming toe be corrupt but not roleplaying or putting effort into it does not count. 3. DRIVING Driving in this server is admittedly painstaking. You cannot drive your vehicle from Idlewood to Market without being rammed by somebody on the way. Players drive in such reckless, careless and intentionally dangerous ways, which causes other players to be unnecessarily rammed and their vehicles damaged. Therefore, hence fourth, ramming will be more observed and punished than before. It is your due diligence to drive reasonably, in a manner through which you do not threaten to ram other players, regardless of lag, or accident. If you decide to intentionally drive in such manner (ie. in wrong lane across market, or city hall) and you ram somebody, you do risk being administratively punished. Obviously, when you're wanted and fleeing from police, you can drive erratically. Same for emergency services when they are responding to a situation with sirens or lights. 4. ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN CRIMINALS AND POLICE As we decided to take step 2 - punishing abusive police officers administratively, we also expect the criminals to avoid acting unreasonably and engaging cops where it would be unrealistic or unreasonable to engage cops. In example, if you are being pulled over by police for violating traffic laws and you choose to evade - you may not call backup for this situation and you may only shoot as last resort. There's no sense in turning a simple traffic stop that would in worst case scenario result in you receiving a $5,000 ticket into a mass shooting. Engaging the cops should be last resort in any situation, but we will specially enforce it in this case of traffic evasions. Also a general reminder that you may not chase cops. The general task of criminals is to avoid being caught committing a crime in first place, and if you are caught, your task is to escape police. Your task is not to kill all the cops in the server for whatever reason. Additional server rules which will be enforced by administration are: Police are not allowed to drive-by vehicles of suspects who had not opened fire on police regardless of vehicle armor level or speed unless: The suspects opened fire on the police whilst on-foot then the police may drive-by their vehicle if the vehicle is armored or high-speed vehicle, or if the suspects drive-by afterwards The suspects opened fire on the police whilst in vehicle (drive-by) then the police may drive-by their vehicle regardless of armor or speed Criminals are not allowed to call for backup or initiate mass shootouts in situations where they evade from a traffic stop. If you are being pulled over for violation of traffic laws, and you are not already wanted of a felonious crime (you have a crime that has a [F] label in it) then you may not call backup or create a mass shooting. 5. MISCELLANEOUS Players won't be able to drive-by from vehicles which are upgraded to level 3 bulletproof windows. They won't be able to /switchweapon when passengers inside such a vehicle, and weapons will automatically be removed when entering as passenger in such vehicles. You can have a FREE downgrade to level 2 window armor level. Spike strips will work on bulletproof wheels so the police don't resort to shooting evading vehicles but rather use tactics and spike strips to stop evading ivehicles. These reiterations or additions are going to be implemented gradually. For the period of two weeks you will be receiving verbal warnings for the violation of these newly implemented or changed rules. These verbal warnings will go on your record. If you continue violating them after verbal warnings, the punishment will escalate.

What is your in-game name? James_Addison Which staff member banned you? James_Hartwell When did you get banned? 07/12/2022 What is the ban reason? "Menu" Personal comment Hello, I was banned from TV by James Hartwell because of the alleged "menu". I have to say that I 100% didn't use any cheats. In the beginning when he TV'd my PC I had my OBS (recording software) open so I would have evidence in case something weird happened. He started closing Firefox, then Task Manager, Discord and last of all he closed OBS and so I couldn't have video recording from TV. After that he went into my GTA, spun the cam briefly, went AFK for 10 seconds and then banned me. NO menu was opened or no other cheats were detected, but he still banned me for "menu". This was on a global war day. I recorded ALL the kills in the Global War event and posted them on my YT channel where you can see I don't use cheats and I'm clean. I would never risk downloading a menu on my PC that could contain a virus, even on a global war day when the admins are spectating the players anyway, I am a clean player who also donated to the server to support it's great work. Also, I was banned for hacks before in 2020, acknowledged my mistake, improved and never had anything to do with hacks again, so why would I risk something like that again and at a Global War event where it's very likely that can i be spectated? I really don't understand why he did something like that, because he was banned himself 2 weeks later because of fail bans and other reasons. You can also see all my kills on my YT channel. I just want to get unbanned and continue playing normally. It's not my intention to harm the players on the server or anything else, I just want to have fun with friends again. I'm also willing to have my PC fully checked by a Manager+ and always record my gameplay 24/7 so admins can always check if my gameplay is legit or not.

1 - Making people behave decently in the server and prohibiting them from disrupting situations they are uninvolved in does not make the server heavy RP. 2 - "Unrealistic driving" rule does not exist. Players can jump off cliffs, drive however they want as long as that does not cause ramming of other players. 3 - Most of you never played real roleplay servers that were considered heavy roleplay (ie. RCRP, LSRP) so it's difficult for you to grasp the difference. Heavy roleplays require character development, prohibit any kind of metagaming, powergaming, there's no turfs, no missions like smuggle and trafficking, no volutneers, and the list goes on endlessly. So claiming "omgggggg why becoming heavy rp" is nonsensical since we're 3 years away from being a heavy rp server.

Promote metagaming to the server. It is unacceptable to tolerate metagaming if you want to increase the rp level. Remove walkie talkies aswell. Players massively shout via walkie talkie, bkbk kos id "x". It kills the experience.
