So I just wanted to know how the ranking system works for the Sergeants and such. I'm not trying to draw attention to my story or anything but only because I am genuinely curious because I see people getting Patrol Officer all the time.
So I have been a Deputy for 7 weeks and have played Cop for 4748 minutes and in that time I had only asked for a ride along twice, first because I was joking and expected nothing of it, and second because I was told by Ace to do so. I had only been asked once how long I had been around and that was by Snake after I gave him the info to my original to APD application he left and never spoke of it again.
So last night I was playing with a bunch of guys on server two and at then end of the night I was chatting with the other Deputy that was with us and my time on Olympus came up and all the Corporals told me that I should have said something a long time ago about a ride along and I told them that I thought asking just got you in big trouble and they said that after playing for a 1000+minutes I shouldve said something about it, right before I got off I was told by Ace that he would update my notes andthat if anyone was on later I should ask them for a ride along...
So today I was playing on Server 3 and I saw that Ares came on when I asked him if he was available for a quick ride along and that I was told by Ace to ask for one he said "There is no point in asking it just puts you at the bottom of the list". So I was confused how this works
How does a Sergeant and such decide if someone gets a ride along? Do you have to be recommended? (Commonly spoken of as a way to get promoted). Do you have to be recognized as a capable Deputy?(If this than please explain). Does someone just look up your stats and decides that this player has been around long enough he should know the rules well enough? I just want to know how the proccess works because I would really like to work towards a promotion and Im sure others would too
I dont know if this is against forum rules to post this here if so I am sorry
If this is annoying cause you see it as a Deputy bitching about stupid shit then let me know and I will just remove it
