LULA 2022 - PT 13

Why does that dog look like it's gonna ask if I have games on my phone?

See you man, by far the best corp rec (I think?) I put in. Best of luck in your crayon connoisseur/joint destroying adventures.

I can back you up, you used to be able to load ATVs into the cargo van and I know for a fact because on cop we'd try seeing how fast we could be going before deploying them for shits and giggles.

Women are like cassoulet, the best ones have sausage.

You think it's funny to take screenshots of people's NFTs, huh? Property theft is a joke to you? I'll have you know that the blockchain doesn't lie. I own it. Even if you save it, it's my property. You are mad that you don't own the art that I own. Delete that screenshot.

https://gyazo.com/751c54564d51fd56be57836c4aaa8dc2 I don't disagree that this was technically a rule break, but the rule is scuffed as hell. As you can see, in the entire server rules gang base is tucked away in a subsection of a subsection at the bottom of the server rules, the rules themselves don't even go as far as stating the time it happens or the restriction you brought up of it falling under conquest rules, it just says "warzone rules" which the vigi in this case didn't break. If the dispute was also just the word "one" it was clearly in bad faith and in my (non-staff) opinion should've been rendered worthless just by that fact. The vigis were scummy, but expecting them to follow a rule that's not in the actual rules, and only found in a year old post on the 3rd page of the announcements sections is unreasonable. In my opinion, this ban shouldn't have happened due to the posted rules not reflecting the existence of this restriction, the bad faith dispute and in the future gang base skirmishes should warrant a recurring notification every 10 minutes or so explaining to stay away from the area and city.

+1 I know the dev team gets a lot of shit from all sides, but they're the ones who make it possible for the rest of us to do what we find mildly enjoyable. Thank you to all the devs except @ Venomm , he smells like patchouli and dip spit.

@ Mike Lit

Should probably put a little hat on it, since the circumcision took away the natural one.

It is now 3970, pray it does not sink lower, comrade.

He is as great as our immortal chairman Mao. I propose we give him the 七一勋章 for his outstanding contributions! 党谴责对同胞的冒犯性语言。立即停止这种反社会行为！

I get that, my main point is intrinsic vs extrinsic rewards. The APD is still working with the former when it's simply not the same motivator it was even a few years ago. The whole undercover thing was pretty OP when it first came out. we can spend brainpower, resources and political capital making a gimmick for less than 20 people, but we can't figure out a way to motivate and value the majority of the faction? It doesn't have to be anything crazy, but numbers wise the RnR is about the same size as the APD in juniors and they seem to have a higher level of job satisfaction. Like I said, I'm not a decision maker and you're getting paid the big e-bux to figure this stuff out. But from my observations, I think the APD needs to fundamentally change the way it approaches rank structures, gameplay and interactions at a vertical and horizontal level, because having an almost full server with barely any cops at peak times is a symptom of a bigger issue.
