Well this is a spicy topic isnt it? I might aswell put my 2 cents into this... Imo if nothing changes to get a balance out the two sides (cops and civs/rebels) than we'll see more and more gangs slowing dying or going onto other servers... I myself had slowly strived away from the server as there is nothing to do on rebels besides from the occasional airdrop/shipment or bank. Its just the same thing everyday and its getting really bland.

This is amazing... Thank you for summing it up... I feel I may need to request this more often...

See this is how to get shit done... needs more rhyming words and abit more upbeat but getting there...

Interesting. I understand you would like a (n+1) teambalance rule which would ensure that teams remain even despite low numbers. This isnt a bad idea, id even encourage it to rid the server of n.balance complaints. To be honest though, numbers dont matter. People learnt this a long time ago however they need a reminder. A small veteran indie group can destroy both teams despite only being 4-6 strong. #skillbalancing Tanks: strap multiple 1k satchels to quads and blow them to hell. Cheap, highly effective and satisfying. Drones: alamut drones at rearm location. If u have money, a 40k gryphon will destroy all drones and tanks. A small price to hear your enemiy's salt in global. There is always a simple, effective solution to every problem. **below screencapture was taken yesterday.

people would simply quit the server. i know i probably would

So I've been apart of the community for multiple years now and i consider myself a pretty well known individual in the community. I've played all aspects of Altis life. I've been here through the highs of the server maxing out, to the lows of there lucky to be 15 players on at peak hours, I've seen staff come and go. For quite some time now I've noticed the growing mistreatment of rebels and the favouring for police, not only from staff but the direction the game is being pushed towards, Earlier last year when the server hit its low and the police force crashed, new protocols were set in place to give the police an unfair advantage on the outnumbering rebel gangs, but now the server is back to its max capacity but with very few rebels gangs actually existing actively on the server meanwhile the cops still have access to their Hunter HMG's, Ghosthawks, etc. The average player size of the gangs on altis life is 5-6, to the few reading this that have actually fought cops in a 7vs20+ situation will know how overpowered it is.They use any chance of pulling a hunter HMG (which only takes 4 striders or a ghosthawk which only takes 2 MMG's), as well as having an abundance of weapons to their advantage like teargas and flashbangs. I left my position in the police force because I wasn't enjoying it at the time. I found the force had a dog eat dog vibe to it, with players snaking each other to try give themselves advantages on getting promotions, which i wanted nothing to do with. I've recently played a little bit of cop and have found its exactly the same as when I left, CO's snaking other players to try and stand out to higher ups, teamwork rarely exists and its seems to be a 'who can scream loudest' competition in the channel. From a rebels prospective, I don't see anything that would appeal to gangs starting up as the chance of them actually contesting a bank or a fed are slim to none. I think a major change in attitude from staffing is required and rebel activity should be encouraged. I know i personally lost my trial moderator position as I supposedly favoured my gang members, but thats another story for another day, While I had my position in staff, I seen multiple situations on which I didnt think was very fair and I spoke up on them to soon be told to "Worry about your own issues" by an admin. Aobe members banned for 12 hours for combat logging but a Senior support member who is also a cop combat logs and he gets a warning. Don't get my wrong I'm grateful for the hardwork that goes into running the server and I have seen plenty of good from these same people. But I feel like its finally time for change, People favouring their friends for positions or picking people they personally like instead of picking what is good for the wellness of the server. Remember this is just 1 players opinion and everyone is entitled to one, happy to have a discussion below if people think I'm being unreasonable or if other players agree, let me know :) Thanks for taking the time to read.

Sergeant Promotion Application Note: By placing this application you are not in-titled to Sergeant and can be denied as well as issued a non-apply period of no less than 1 week. Do not bother anyone about you application, if you do it will be hidden. Name: Mr Miller [Miller Martinez] Callsign: K15W Rank: Senior Constable Training Completed By: Josh Why do you deserve a promotion? (50 Words min) I believe i deserve this promotion because though my time on General duties has decreased a lot I Believe that i have the experience and knowledge to take a further step in the cop force and because a Sergeant. Because of my long time experience on the server and as a cop i have seen it go through hard and easy times and i have been lucky enough to say i've been through it, because of this i have taken note of higher ranks and how they act and show there experience and skill leading the cop force so i know how to act and how not to act. I by far understand that my record of disciplinary actions will have a large take in my application but i believe that i have changed and if i become a sergeant i will know that the higher up still believe in me and i can try harder and show that i can make a difference in the force and its officers. Who would recommend you for a promotion? @Daywalker @nclem @denis @kiwisniper @Zorgain @Brendon @N4THAN @FarmerGeorge98 @Jaydos @Josh death @Jebediha Shepard @Trav_4133 @FrankNZ @Zesty @Reaper @LachlanM @Moygstar @SgtJimDale @Shackas @sirgeneralj

I want to be cool

well apparently my forum content needs to be approved by mods now before posting so i'll be surprised if any of you see these but yeah... spectral's events just a little flex and the old cop wanted list when me and dyet set up the first ever SRT team when marc_r ran cop, this srt team is still unmatched even today...and yeah most of these boys are permed now just found this rand pic idk

ok, I appreciate the integrity of this post and that it wasn't directed or aggressive. Thank you. Firstly, the issue with the Support member breaking rules. I followed this issue up and he was told by another staff member to issue said punishment. I'm not sure what went on, however I see where you're coming from in that issue. I can also see how rebels feel that it's cop sided and that they get no support. From a staff point of view, there's been no rebel gang ( SP and NTR *WHEN ACTIVE* ) have had enough input to be able to have a say in the server. The reason for this is that they say something then leave the server or go to cop and then complain about the change they just made :/ . I just came back from holidays and still trying to gather everything that's happened recently. If there's something wrong with another staff member please speak to Lotza or Nev ( Pref Nev ). I understand how it feels seeing other people getting promoted and thinking that it's unfair. There's a long process before people get promoted. As for the escalation graph; right now I don't think there are that many rebels to even trigger one of the escalations. IF there are enough cops on, I feel that ( not saying they don't ), they should deal with their situation by themselves. They can't win every fight, otherwise we would have no rebels. I don't think the escalation graph is being overused, however just stating my opinion on the matter. Cops at Bank; ok, with the number of cops at a bank. There shouldn't be a ratio involved, however, what there should be is some responsibility involved, the more cops there are the smaller guns SRT should use. That's just an example, it's just about making an even fight and making sure that each side has an even chance at winning. If it's obviously one sided then nobodies going to do it. Those are just my opinions feel free to criticize!

@Moygstar TURN THEM INTO FRANCE LMFAO

@LuckyB33f

Luckyb33f was here... And didnt finish reading one comment... way to much reading... can we please get it in song form... Cheers

Correct me if I’m wrong but there was 2 lynx’s pulled by cops last fed that aobe did?

There needs to be more civilian/rebel Moderators to defend civs seeming as all mods that play on the server are cops/medics it can get quite biased.

I mean lets face it this post is going to get absolutely destroyed because it has to words in it Cops and Meta Game, Yes Apollo makes some extremely valid points in this and yes a lot of people have made these posts time and time again but maybe these post are here for a reason. The only people who are opposing these post are one of the two people A. Cops (a given) or B. Civs/players who have little to no interactions with cops on the opposing end. so in conclusion ive kept this short cause i know for a fact that no one will read a heaps long post on this topic and i am almost positive that half the people who comment on this post wont even read the actually post, so yes Apollo i couldn't agree more and just maybe someone will finally realize that they are actually op as ****
