Mr GOAT

This post, among others, is the reason downvotes need to be readded

ONCE AGAIN: @Ares

Solution: Take the interview seriously

Solution 2: Provide a government issued ID /w your birthday visible and all sensitive info blacked out

if you can’t do those, then unlucky

In all honesty, @MyersB you were one of my favorite cops to play with. Sad to see you go. Come back soon man!

DMS is like 5-6m lmao

also Selling one btw

Just remember... the win rate is due to a SINGLE group of civs. Making buffs/nerfs based off that one group will only hurt the chances for every civ to win, and even the chances for this group of elite guys that are max geared and super good at the game.

Due to the simple fact that T I T A N was able to complete and extract the vehicles from the BW, your argument is invalid. Seen plenty of randoms successfully complete fed/BW. 

This isn’t rocket science folks, if there is an 80%+ win rate, things are busted.

You definitely have a good point, but, i find it lowkey important to point out the amount of cops who on average log on to counter a BW/Fed, whilst its true a 80% winrate is high, its important to note than as far as feds goes, barely anything has changed that's a "massive civ buff" in quite a while, the thing that really "sticks out" as far as changes goes is the fact you got 5+ gangs going together to spam feds. Ending up nerfing EVERYONE because of a single group causing mayhem does not seem like the right play but im open for suggestions on how the odds could be more even without causing a shitshow. 

Relative to past buffs, you might be correct, but as far as I’m concerned I’ve seen major civ buffs in the recent updates that, quite frankly, just aren’t talked about. There are many things that need to be changed, and I’ve discussed them with the appropriate people. Hopefully, those people will remember said conversations.

it's not like federal events are somewhat dependent on skill, something the APD clearly lacks 

I forgot that having a far superior weapon (7.62) equated to having skill. When you want to have a real conversation about the real issues at federal events, you can come back to this thread.

oh and before he says it, yes I do Feds, yes I abuse the fuck out of them, yes I say how trash cops are during said Feds. Doesn’t change that there is a real issue with a consistent 85%+ win rate. Period. End of story

the "conversation" would be sAPD telling civs to "get more people" and "just buy a titan"

this has already happened l m a o

Never, EVER, I repeat EVER have the APD won an event at an 80%+ clip, NONETHELESS 85%+. Quote me on that. You know exactly what the conversation would be. Don’t play dumb.

I mean when you have a group of 20+ people spamming this shit obviously the stats are gonna be fucked. Honestly I dont think there is anything wrong with the feds/BW (except for those 2 new towers at bw you can maybe get rid of one of them). At this point it’s a number game obviously at 1 AM on a school night when you have 20 apes spamming the feds vs the maximum 10 cops on those 20 kids are gonna win regardless of their skill level. Either get more cops on so you have even numbers and I guarantee you will smack these kids OR make a rule with outnumbering like you tried to do with the PO getting lethals. @an overweight giant retard Just my opinion on it pls don’t hang me 

I partially agree with you, especially on the point of 1AM Feds. With that being said, you should not have an 80%+ success rate virtually across the board. If tables were turned and the APD won 80%+ of the time, I genuinely wonder how the ‘conversation’ would be. I can say with a high level of confidence, it wouldn’t be the staff telling the civs to “wait and see” or, better yet, doing nothing. 

Thanks for putting SOME THOUGHT behind your argument @JuanDeaged.

I want to rework jail completely. Ive made some different versions.

Hold on, you want to rework the jail but won’t fix the obvious problem aka the Fed/BW?

Come on Deadpool, don’t make me continue the conversation we were having, publicly. You cannot be this blind to facts.

TBH 

This is kinda balanced. I would prefer it to be if the last cop is legged then he can deem him self neutralized.

Better handbook change than PO lethals IMO

Also, I'm surprised APD has now made this change. I would have expected Goat to change this back in 2017

Civ Rep approved

pack it up boys, we’re going home

So, once reached, they cannot engage anyone? What if they’re fired upon? Say we are at a Fed, once the wave reaches, would I put my hands down and return to HQ?@Pledge

Why are staff straying away from the altis community and branching off into other titles. And how bout actually putting the time and effort into the server instead of this bs. We are an altis life community like what is this? Hey that’s just my opinion ik that you staff can do what you like but I’m just voicing my opinion.

From an ownership perspective, we call it, "diversifying your bonds"

since the rule was enacted for those that are intentionally breaking faction rules to ruin other players experience...(in other words, nothing has actually changed, just now its documented)

Then why was documentation needed? Lets get specific

GOAT literally got banned for RDMing in a redzone as a cop prior to this which stuck only due to staff being faggots regarding the situation @iPopsicle, if you don't believe that people are going to abuse their position to keep controversial players banned and use it to demote them you're delusional. This shits honestly a joke.

This but with heavy emphasis on the ignis situation lmaoo

Dont really know that situation.

I think you kind of took me the wrong way, I was just explaining the purpose of the rule change. I cant speak for past staff members but I can say that I think if people were being banned just because they were "controversial" then I would hope some of us would be competent enough to notice. (If brought to our attention of course)

All I gotta say is, history *often* repeats itself around here. When it does, we’ll say we told you so just per normal SOP

Just now, KGB JOSH said:

Its really for people who do stupid stuff that they know is against the rules. So if you just do something small on accident while on cop, chances are you arent getting banned as long as it isnt against server rules.

We all know that’s what it’s meant for, but will that be how it is implemented? Probably not

I mean you do force them to do training. Might as well force them to learn what they need to know about feds in that training. The APD is a massive gang that mass recruits new players who barely have 28 hours on the server. You say it's designed to be a 2nd experience on the server but for most, it's their main and only. Chris when he wants to stack a fed to the point of having more cops than cop slots. He will go to APD lounge and Force other cops from other servers to get on his. So you have the power that is written in the handbook. Besides APD would tell civs all the time to get more people when you guys would mass stack us. We would ask staff to do something about the stack with a stagger timer but were always told no. But now civs are stacking and APD wines to Ares and APD gets buffed for civs doing the same thing the APD did. Realistically you can train and teach other players how to do things for a federal event but no SAPD ever sticks their neck to help. They just sit in hidden channels or in a unit channel with their best friends. sAPD made FTO to have Corps show more leadership and teach, but ever since FTO became a thing Deputies are more braindead than ever before.

Giving your signature, I am going to remind you how awful trainings are to begin with. Imagine trying to teach *multiple* retards how to not be *retarded*.

Only gripe is that whitelisting is considered a solution

other than that, I’m a big fan of this post

Imagine new players joining

CANT IMAGINE THAT LOL

If the APD won a combined Fed/BW 27 times in a row, without a loss, what would your response be? 

I’ll wait.
