Unfortunately there is no APD logo, the Altis Police website makes use of the SG logo: http://sgaltispolicedepar.wixsite.com/sgaltispoliceforce A professionally made logo for the APD would be a great idea though. I'll see if the texture guys would be interested in making one.

Lot's of interesting points made here, well done to everyone for engaging with the topic. 1) When a situation (Bank, Fed, Hostages, whatever) is underway, should it be a breaking of rules and RP to go to it? Absolutely not, from a police prospective officers will sign on for duty and will have to ask what the 10-18 (Situation Report) is and it is realistic for said officer to respond to that situation. It doesn't make sense for a cop to go "Awh I'm not allowed to help with a bank robbery in my city so I'm just gonna do gate duty", this does not reflect realism. Surprises make the game more interesting, and a roleplay server should reflect that "reinforcements" is a genuine concept. This is in no way META gaming and I could imagine the headaches this would cause Help Desk staff, Moderators and Admins if there was a help desk issue every time someone apparently logged in after the bank or fed officially started. Not to mention the difficulty in proving that a person had META knowledge of an ongoing situation in game, it is not feasible to enforce such rule and I agree with @Zac to say that both factions should have "reinforcements". It is only fair that if Police can have additional assets show up to the situation, the other side can do exactly that also. If there is 'proof' of a police officer, rebel or whoever - whom sent a message to say "Get on now, we're doing bank, etc" than that is META gaming and should be dealt with accordingly. However, it is not META gaming to 'sign on for duty' or 'wake up in the morning in your gang base' to get a phone call saying "Hey, the boys are out doing bank - come help us when you can". 2) What constitutes the start? Is it when you hit the Rob Teller? Is it when shots are fired? If the criminals robbing the bank are clumsy enough to be seen by police before they start actually robbing the bank. The police are subjected to engage with the rebels and are KOS for being within city limits. However, most of the time the police will be ordered to return to PD to prepare and gear up for a likely bank robbery. I think the bank only officially starts when the teller is being robbed and the global message is received by those on the server. The mere shots being fired at the start is rebel activity in city limits and cannot be considered as 'robbing the bank' unless the alarm is sounded. Back to realism and feasibility, it makes more sense to make the 'official start' of bank to be the global message/alarm so there is no issues policing the rule. Imaging having to go through extensive video evidence to find when the first shot was fired? It would be an absolute nightmare that would be heavily debated by both parties. No one can debate the global message and alarm time though. @Yuri - thank you for making your points, it helped me develop my thoughts on these points of contention.

Welcome to the community d0nk, it was a pleasure giving you the APD induction. Enjoy your time @ SG.

"I am vengeance.. I am the spectre" D: Sign me up!

T'was another good night playing cop, story time with @Greg was the best part.

The music was hot, this video itself made me want to play haha. She's on the FB page, great work SG Video Production team.

Dean is an inspiration to us all. @nclem cheers for telling us the pro tips, signature looks clean

Dean your signature is much wow, nice very..

I'm looking so majestic on the shore line.. "Paint me like one of your French girls Jack" @That Lucky SOB and that bloody drone are inseparable.. Photography is on point!

Welcome back to the community mate, I would be one of those new faces around for you.

It's on the face of many books! This is definitely my favourite episode of the series so far, loving the Arma physics when the strider goes flying.

Great video, it was a pleasure to be apart of this chase. After a long chase like that, it felt so rewarding to win. Good shooting on the heli man.

The Evolved cartel has the authority to work with police when a bank robbery is in progress. The cartel uses these banks to keep millions of 'business money' safe, the cartel isn't just going to allow the likes of SP just take this hard earned money. The relationship itself with the police is 'interesting' to say the least, we only scratch their back if they also scratch ours. The cartel has no issue with stealing kidneys, taking hostages or killing police if the business interests of Pablo are threatened. @Mercy If you wish to experience some strong RP and also have a good time, you may apply here:

Using macro keys for preset messages is definitely the way to go. The suggestion from Leopard is pretty good as well.

Hey Charlie, welcome to StrayaGaming! Jump on the TS to start meeting the community, see you around mate.

AInc left the community for reasons that are better not to be discussed here. While the group itself + the great RP behind it has disbanded, some of the AInc guys still remain at StrayaGaming - just in different groups now. Good to see a community member like yourself noticing the empty void left after the departure of AInc. I hope to see another group step up and provide the server with a fantastic RP experience.

I feel that diet is just that bit more important than exercise, obviously a combination of both will make your goals happen faster though. For weight loss, it is good to set a particular calorie consumption you aim to hit each day. Counting calories can be daunting, so there are many apps that do it for you. The MyFitness app allows you to type in what you ate and it will do the rest for you. You can also use this app to calculate what number of calories you should be consuming each day to loose weight. For example, you may consume 1700 calories in one day but your target is to only consume 1400 calories to lose weight. So you would also exercise and burn 300 calories to meet your target. With exercise, a lot of people give up within the first 1-2 weeks because of the pain. It's the people who make it past the first couple of weeks who will succeed with their goals.

Keep the screenshots coming guys, I really want to give Wasteland more attention on the SG Facebook page.

Apply for a cartel that only takes on the best (we have lasted longer than a week so we meet your requirement) -

T'was a successful night, no rebels dare enter Sydney during Copfest...

Best looking XML on SG, Evolved Cartel on point..

OMG Hahahaha, the best part was how the people in the two jeeps behind us starting 'shitting themselves' - thinking their actually may of been something hiding in the jungle...

Great video Smokey, this is the sort of content that will lure new members into StrayaGaming. Posted on the FB page.

Well done Enis, SoA are a great bunch of guys. You will fit in well with their RP agenda
