For example, if a cop VDMs someone while on cop, they get reported, they get banned, and now they are dewhitelisted because they need to be disciplined on the APD side, so they have to wait for the staff member who banned them to respond to a ban appeal, and now they have to wait for a senior APD member to come talk to them, and they will end up with a note, a ban, and a headache because they have to wait for two different people in two different roles to handle their punishment. How it works now is if a cop VDMs someone while on cop, they get reported, they get See SAPD from a senior APD member who is a staff member, they wait to talk to that one person, don't get banned, and walk away with a note that most likely will not affect their chances of progression. APD and civilians can't be compared. APD members are so easily accessible for a plethora of reasons, while civilians can only be accessed via a ticket (most likely a ban appeal).
