Altis Paramedic Service APS Forums Site This new update void the old APS forums section (EMS Member Area) with this brand new iteration. It brings with it many more features, including content moderation (No, we aren't communitsts, but then again, how would you know? ), specialised forum sections accessible by only certain ranks and most importantly, a fancy feature for medics. Now thats unheard of! I duly hope that you will enjoy this new median of communication as much as I do. Nevetos, Chief Executive Officer Altis Paramedic Service

Altis Paramedic Service Rules and Regulations It is vital that all Paramedics make sure that they are familiar with the Altis Paramedic Rules and Regulations.

Not going against anyone here, but please just think about what I say here in regards to our community and roleplay. Everyone wonders why roleplay is going down the drain, and cops are not always 'roleplaying 100% of the time'. Rocking up to cops and just saying "Hands on your head or your dead" with no gun out in a city - clearly with the intent of getting him to disobey the dec really isnt going for roleplay. It is definitely a correct dec, but does anyone really have to do things like that, especially when its such a volatile time? Is it really worth it, is it really worth degrading the community even more for one person to have a bit of fun?

The last hostage negotiation I was apart of (as a hostage) went very well. Apart from the fact that I was mostly kept away from it all in the cave, officers did bargain for my freedom without any ifs or buts. The only thing that broke the roleplay was me being killed by a glitching strider in the end... While I agree that there are certainly a few bad apples, it doesn't always end with no roleplay.

During the police meeting, it appeared that there have been a few misunderstanding regarding the Court System and Warrants. Warrants must be obtained prior to conducting a house raid, unless officers have immediate probable cause to search that house. They can only be given out by a Judge or Commissioner (Found in the Judge Lounge channel list, in the Judicial Government Section) NOT MEDICS!!! Evidence Required: This announcement is here to educate everyone on what can and can not be done through a warrant. To receive a warrant for a raid, officers must show beyond a reasonable doubt, that what they are looking for is in that house (if a warrant is issued, all houses are affected). This could include witness accounts, digital evidence, or forensic evidence placing you at the scene (e.g. you did a successful fed, none of your members died or got caught, but officers saw you in the kill log - this is where they can roleplay 'DNA'/ballistics etc.) If you have been arrested with the gear used in a crime, there is a reasonable doubt about further gear inside your house, and thus a warrant would not be issued. Regulations regarding the execution of a Warrant: Police must announce to the person under the warrant that they are executing a warrant (E.g. If they are not at the house, they must establish phone contact first). They must state that they have a warrant, and what the allowances of the warrant are prior to enacting the warrant. Failure of the officers to declare this will lead to illegal searches, and the warrant becoming null and void as its conditions are breached. On the other hand, failing to allow law enforcement to execute a legal warrant will result in greater powers awarded to officers, such as permitting officers to issue fines, arrest you, use force, or seize all items (even legal items). [Out of RP: The Alits Courts wants fairness for all. It wants to prevent officers being able to raid any house they please, but it also wants to prevent notorious criminals from escaping justice where officers do not have immediate probable cause. It is a two way street, and we are not here to 'make it hard' for anyone. We try to keep it fair for both sides.] Please refer to our database for any other questions.

We could always add a gun plugin and call it a roleplay server

Official Announcement by the Judicial Government of Altis (The Courts) As you may have noticed, the Judicial Government which involves the Prime Minister, his staff as well as the 'Constitution of Australian Altis' are no longer in effect. However, the Altis Courts are here to stay. With this change comes even more. The Courts have a new document regarding the 'Court Guidelines'. This document will be in effect as of now, and may have minor changes made to it over its time of use. Please note that you are not required to know every section of this document. It is thought that each role (Judges, Laywers) should specialize in their section and then help explain others how their section works. This enables you to focus on whats important to you. Major changes are in regards to Warrants, powers of the courts as well as the rights of persons being processed by officers (on trial). Furthermore, the courts have implemented a new function of the courts, namely Royal Commissions.

Disappointed that I'm not in there singing wheels on the bus while crawling in the mud...

-I have never seen a cop in real life walk around a city with an assault rifle. How about these fine officers inside a subway? -I have never seen a gun or piece of ammo on gumtree [have a black market and a gumtree 4 more "role play"] True... All I could find was a bolt action pen... http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/copmanhurst/other-antiques-art-collectables/bullet-pen-bolt-action-hand-turned-in-aust-from-tea-tree/1133458566 -I have never heard of a person that goes and mines materials to make a gun this is not rust. To be honest here, in the old days they did do that. Nowadays its all done in mass production... This wouldn't stop illegal weapons manufacturers from doing it the old way though. But then again, there's also no statistics on it because its illegal... So we'll never know. -I have never seen a cop try and negotiate to stop someone from robbing a bank its all about killing [If we add negotiations that would add more "Role-play"] No, officers are never about 'killing' - even in a bank robbery. Officers will always attempt to bring in any robbers peacefully. The only reason this often doesn't happen is because the robber will pose an immediate threat to civilians and/or officers. (US: https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/10/1047.7 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deadly_force) (Australia: https://www.loc.gov/law/help/police-weapons/australia.php) (If you mean officers in game should RP more by negotiating, then I'll just add that they either 1) get deced on by the robbers that any cops entering will be shot, or 2) officers just get shot anyways)

I see, Wastelands been copying from Altis Life...

While minecraft seems like the easiest thing to do, I must disagree. It is something which requires a lot of thought. Going off and developing a Server is rather easy, but putting together all elements to make an enjoyable, lasting experience isn't. While you might be able to develop a masterpiece, without good execution, it's destined to fail. Working with the monetisation rule is quite simple, create a plugin just like a forum giveaway and X days it draws a winner - but only if they enter in game -, or through voting (X chance of getting it), or any way which gives all players a chance of getting everything that you would if you donated (i.e. a .001 chance of getting something from mining stone, etc). Remember that cosmetics are fine, only things which impact gameplay fall under it. If you do go into donations, be prepared to be contacted by parents a lot about purchases they want refunded - because their credit card was taken by their kids... What a surprise. Some things to think about (kept small because I don't want another massive post) Survival/Sandbox/PvP ? Economy (one of the biggest ones)? What items? What plugins & commands? What features? Do you go for 1.8 PvP, or go for 1.9, 1.10 or 1.11? - Do you use a plugin for 1.8 PvP (Which may be very buggy) If you go for a sandbox, what players want is entities - they want to be able to use red-stone, use minecarts, have animals - all of which isn't too friendly on the server. Do you give them something like world edit - another feature people really enjoy, but isn't too friendly on the server either (yes, you can limit what they can do) If you go for something like hunger games (a gamemode), are you just making it for a quick session, or are you trying to make it enjoyable to play for hours (much harder)? Do you go with what has already been established (i.e. Factions, HungerGames etc.) or would you develop a new gamemode never thought of before? Do you go for one server, or more? How many to keep everything interesting with a playerbase? I am not here to discourage anything, just making sure everyone knows whats involved. (How do I know? 6 years of working on one server which has had its up and downs from 100-1000 on at a time, to 30-80 in its last stretches)

Right... And no mention of the glorious EMS force that often times patched you guys back up after your 'accidents' in your choppers... Or how you made our profession as dangerous as never before? ... "AInc - Should we return (again)" - clearly just farming the likes again... No, in all seriousness, you needed at least one negative post... We love you, come back and help fund the Altis Paramedic Service with your 'accidents' You were also the only group that actively encouraged each other to come back to the hospital to use up 10-15mins of your time, even if we were 10km from the closest one!

You could say that, due to the nature of Altis (its population and geography), Gokarts are able to be used on any roads, except main highways, or any road which has a posted speed limit of 80km/h or above.

Doesnt surprise me when the channel talk power got modified *cough* But in actuality, it peaked at 60 players in the channel - with a talk power of 60. Illuminati confirmed. http://imgur.com/a/GkehS

Heads are going to roll... Oh wait, they already have. Rest in Peace to all individuals which have been killed as a direct result of these Junior Paramedics.

Philosophy, love it here we go... There is a place named Auroville where money does not exist, yet people are still happy to live there. But you probably aren't after an answer which is unrelated to normal 'western ideals'. You can read an entire article written by Australian Unity, the makers behind the Australian Unity Wellbeing Index, on this question. But here is my take: While you do need money to get your basics going, it doesn't go much further than that:- A roof above your head, some food, essential items, etc. These material things really don't increase happiness, but are somewhat necessary. Its sort of the foundation - its needed, it sustains everything on top of it, but no matter how fancy it looks, its still a foundation which you cant see. It makes no difference. Having money (or fame) attracts girls, yes. But, not the kind that you really want. Run out of the money (or fame) and they all go running away - let them in too much and they'll stab you in the back. Sure, that isn't representative of everyone, but it does happen much more than expected. If your after a meaningful relationship, you wont need money. If your after some fun for a day and move on, just go to a bar. What makes you happy are the things you spend most your life on. Your job, and your relationships (if any of those apply). If you don't like your job, you probably wont be happy. If you love your job, you'll be happy. One last thing on online personalities. No-one who wants online attention will show you what terrible things there are in their life. They will usually only show the best parts, and the most enjoyable. The same goes with married couples - yours isn't going too well in your eyes, but all your friends have such good relationships. 4/5 times, they will be thinking the same thing with their relationships. It is all a matter of perspective. Conclusion, it can buy happiness. But, it has a small limit and there are other aspects such as work and relationships (With other humans, or pets) which influence your happiness a lot more.

This may be the most memorable day in the EMS history! Much <3

Could it be that they are either ejecting before they hit you or someone unflipping the vehicle while they are on top of the person?

We could stick with the AUD as we have named a lot after Australia, or we could use something like ALD - Altian Dollar for instance.

Cant complain there... But when you gotta wait 4 1/2 hours... I swear even the devs re faster than that

Yes, just press windows key on it and remove it. It'll place it in your Y menu ready to be placed again. Just make sure that the storage box is empty before you move it!

The devs will be implementing medic pubslots in the next update. Unfortunately medics haven't been the focus of any of the updates...

You can report bugs on the following form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf1uiVZZIjBzygguYtU3KwtY2EVOs5HbbCwNXeFc3YrcAfBcA/viewform There will be a few more updates over time, and one will be coming just now. It will be fixed as soon as possible.

Ok. let us try to make it like a real economy. What I am trying to say here is that due to the limitations of this 'world', that is altis, the old market becomes obsolete and doesn't work. Yes, OVERSUPPLY will drop the price. Simple supply and demand laws tell us this. But, even if someone were to keep supply at 1 weed every hour, the market would still think it's being over-supplied and drops the price. But then of course we sell some other drug, and the market tells itself, oh this drug is getting boring... I want more weed, let's stick the price up! Oh and it's also making me long for some uranium... Let's just leave out the fact that drugs are addictive and thus demand behaves a bit differently... So either, drastically increase the complexity of how prices are calculated, or keep it how it is with set prices. Lastly, my thing about the RP doesn't concern me that it's just so we can RP more, but because that is what the rules tell us to RP. If it's worthless to hold one drug field, then that makes cartels worthless and everyone should become either rebels, civs or cops. And it becomes a shoot em up between the cops and rebels with civs just acting as cannon fodder. Cannon fodder and hostages.
