The APD needs to be changed. One of the Biggest Problem the APD has is the lower ranks not making their minimum hours in. There should be an incentive for people to actually get their hours in. For example POs and deps have basically been using the same gear since 2016 and the only time there is something new given to them is when a promotion is given but most POs give up after a while because they think they will never get corp so I believe their should be a new Rank or at least something new given to POs to give the Jr APD an incentive to continue playing.
Also their are somethings that some SAPD members do that probably cause Jr APD to be discouraged to get their hours in. Not every SAPD member does this in fact many of the SAPD members Ive played with were cool , friendly , gave advice , and helped me out and actually cared about us but some SAPD just play only among other SAPD members which is just pretty toxic. isolating yourself from the majority of the APD which is made up of Deps and POs kinda makes you seem like you can care less about the Jr APD. The only time where the SAPD are consistently playing with Jr APD is when there are Feds. Then they leave shortly after the Fed is done. This might not be the case ALL the time with certain SAPD members but is definitely the case the majority of the time and I know people have lives and things to do and the SAPD doesn't want their to be channel stacking I get it but all Im saying is their should be less of a disconnect between Jr APD and SAPD and I Know if there was no longer that disconnect people would want to get their hours in.
To those SAPD members who do play with Jr APD I just want to say thank you , guys are cool !
