Author Topic: How to improve cop team (Read 677 times)

When someone plays cop for the first time they should have to take a test on the rules and how to handle role play situations if they fail they die, if they pass they live.

hmm that would be difficult to manage i think. but we need something like that.

It will just cause less cops than we already have.
The problem is that all the good players are playing as civ all the time and all the noobs switch to the copslot.

It works both ways. I used to be a cop-only player, but I switched to civ-only because of the amount of numbnuts on the cop side.

In that respect an active SLPD was a very good thing because it maintained less-moronic cops in an organised fashion.

Maybe a more organizated Cop team (like SLPD was) and/or cops starting to cooperate with experienced Civilians, i know that a lot of civs would cooperate with the police if they could put better bounties

The SLPD is free to use for you as leader.

I've joined the cop team a few times but because of the lack of willingness (or knowledge) by other Cops to show me the ropes I've switched back to Civ! For example, I know Cops shouldn't leave the base without a stun gun, but which model out all the guns is the stun gun, and which type of ammo is used? Asking several times over a period of 20 minutes or so made me none the wiser so I left! Thats just one example, I've also asked if anyone is willing to take me under their wing, again no reply!

SL/CL desperately, desperately, desperately needs a RPing Police force, The Policing in SL falls flat on its face which drastically lets the game down!

I for one would be a lot more willing to play Cop if there was a well trained/organised/disciplined Police force! Maybe another server could be opened up for a few hours a week where Police training would be given? Maybe something to consider for CL? Either way the game needs it.

Turk.

P.S I've come across some good Cops in SL, so its not all bad!

Col.Street and MajorAlex left the community again, the SLPD is free to have if anyone is really interested in leading this team.
I do not want to have a new absenced leader. :|

So, when you are really interested in, let me know via PM.

Have been away for months but started playing again a week or so ago. I usually play as a police officer and "unfortunately" have a 'horrible' personality that somehow makes it impossible for me not to at least try to help out new police officers.

The main problem working against my willingness to help is the high ammount of just chaos-creating / non-roleplaying / mass murdering civilians. While that doesn't effect "theoretical training" from the safety inside the base it does ofc. effect the practical side. Still if there were just a few less disruptive civilians which means less F-this and that and general chat spam it would make things a lot easier.

Bad cops are a problem yes but they are often "wronged civs" who switch sides to annoy all cops for their own amusement. Of course the initial problem are (again often

) some of the non-communicating non-english (or german) speaking players or simple kids having fun with itchy trigger fingers.

I am not against a "cop test" but a "civ test" would be in it's place as well .. a test on the game rules and basic roleplaying perhaps.

The SLPD is coming to the rescue. Soon I will be posting the "Now Hiring" ad where you can apply to join. :thumbsup:

If my post was too long:

I support a cop test but not without a civ test.

Good idea x3r0 (though you are sometimes one of the disruptive players

)

Wow, a test to become a cop now!?!? Why not just have a Sahrani Citizens test too, if you fail, your gonna get deported to Rhamadi!
