Vice City Police Department, an official part of the Argonath RPG Police Department is opened in the VC:MP server.


CopSforza is appointed as the 1st VCPD Chief.

TeaM_Snake and TeaM_JayL take over as Chief and Deputy Chief in late 2008 to build the VCPD and form the first fully operational police department in VC:MP.

[R*]ber (sometime VCPD Captain and MTA:VC's Chief of Police) supports in the development process, as does the founder of ARPD [R*]Kaltsu.

[R*]Ronnel and [R*]RON (President and Prime Minster of the United States of Argonath) check on the city occasionally.

Re: Further changes to the intelligence groups operating in VC:MP

- Firstly we have decided to close the F.B.I. divison of VC:MP, and to replace this, we will intergrate a investigation department into the VCPD, so this means now that we will be running operations back on this forum again.

- Secondly, VCPD will now be split into two divisions, the operations department, and the investigation department. When a new person joins the VCPD and becomes a officer, they will automatically be put into the operations department which deal with the daily activities of watching the city, going after criminals. Officer ranks will remain the same in the operations department and so will the command staff ranks.

F.B.I. has now been renamed and intergrated into the VCPD rather then a seperate division, so if your in the investigation department you are a rank in the VCPD. F.B.I. Director is now Chief Detective, and F.B.I. Agent is now VCPD Detective.

Re: The 2nd Anniversary of the Vice City Police Department
A trip down memory lane by JayL (VCPD Command, 2008-2011)

Prologue...

Chief CopSforza. Officer Snake. CopSforza has to leave and ber nominates Snake as Chief. Officer JayL joins. Snake invites me to be the Deputy Chief and we spend some time trying to get Kaltsu to get our forum structure set...

31 December 2008...

Snake and JayL... Chief and Deputy Chief... After a few days of annoying Kaltsu and convicing Ber to give me MTA:VC rights so I could try and see what was already set up for VC:MP and I found out the boards were already set up... I created the VCPD ranks and the application boards and there we had it, a fresh new police department. Snake and his school issues always keeping his timetables away from Argonath and Deputy Chief JayL here taking care of most stuff.. Haha...

First months of VCPD saw a lot of people join the force... BlackEagle, Drix, Garry Smith, Submachine, Salmonella, Marco, Leonardo and a few other guys... That was the peak of our member count and the peak of our activity... Good times... I remember spending several hours when I decided that the forum structure of VC:MP needed a change (every 2 months hahaha)... Conflicts with SAPD command about rank/boards stuff, the start of a long VCPD inactivity period, rise of Rulebreaking Avenue Furies, my paranoia about inactive people... Marco's promotion to Captain then to FBI director... Leonardo's promotion to Captain... Oh damn I love walking through these memory lanes...

The arrival of new scripts, new VC:MP version... Then I decided to give everything a last try and put the department back up. It was a success. People were joining and staying active unlike the previous attempts. Things were worked well but as much as VCPD was getting alive I was losing my patience with EAF until I chose to resign and hand the continuation of the project to Leonardo and Marcus...

From that I've been quietly staying as an advisor to the VCPD command. Glad to see Marcus and Leonardo managed to keep the project running well...

But now I have seen the final blast on my patience with the situation of the server, and I guess my time is very soon to come. Anyway, it's time to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of VCPD. I am the one to give the assignments this time - Leo and Marcus better start preparing a ceremony!

Happy Birthday, VCPD.

Re: The introduction of the Specialized Response Unit (SRU)

The Specialized Response Unit is a group of highly-trained officers with skills compared to the most tough milltary personnel. They are specialized in combat, teamwork, driving and tactics. The group's task is to assist field officers of the VCPD in situations which can't be handled by then at times, including code 30s, backup requests regarding heavy armed suspects, robbery, assault and fast-pursuiting.

The SRU will be a part of the SWAT for the time being, although it is distinct to the SWAT team.

Re: VCPD Chief Resignation
Below is part of a message, mainly to VCPD staff, from Leonardo (VCPD Command, 2009-2011)

Since i joined this department, in around the beginning of January 09', got trained and promoted by ex-Deputy Chief JayL (i still remember the exam with the other account ''Dpt.Chief JayL'' ). I felt extremly honoured to serve, the atmosphere of VCPD was incredible, everyone cooperating... After our first ceremony, guess what? I took a huge step and got promoted to Sergeant, which made me even more motivated to do everything for this department. But actually, the real challenge came when the VCPD Captain (at the time, [WS]Marco, who sadly left the community i believe) was drafted to the FBI to lead the new project as the new Director, along with Agent Fabio. I was promoted once again, now to the command staff, in around July-August 09'.

After this, many changes came, not only to the department, but to the server also. Firstly, around the end of 2009, Chief Snake resigned from the department due to many reasons, but the main one due to inactivity and his IRL studies. JayL took the responsability to lead the department and did his job very well, getting the department to it's feet again and active. But unfortunately, by September 10', he also resigned from the Chief's position due to multiple reasons also.. Leaving that position to me.

As soon as i became Chief, my goal was to bring the nice atmosphere we had in VCPD and the server at all in 2009, also including the ''modernity'' that was sucessfull in other departments alongside the state (Desks, special awards, and now, even money bonus!)...

Re: New Rank: Academy staff
As part of the VCPD Academy restructure, a new rank is released.

It is my pleasure to announce the introduction of the...

Academy Staff

Academy Staff are to cooperate closely with senior members of the police force to organise applications, train/examine Cadets and build firm bases for all of the VCPD to work from.

Academy Staff will now be able to assess applicants, manage & train Cadets and eventually create new Officers!
Academy Staff would be seen as being experienced, knowledgeable members.
It's not going to be an easy task selecting who'd be the best for this new rank, but we expect that places would be fairly limited for now.

We are opening up an application process for those that would be interested in being among the first to take up this prestigious new title.
