It took a lot of pondering before finally deciding to post this...it took so long to get to this position, that I was reluctant to drag myself away from it.
There is various reasons for my resignation, one of which being that I do not enjoy it. I also don't think I owe the SAPD any more...I've worked alongside lots of people, and fought for lots of changes...ending well, and sometimes badly.
Recently, I was involved in a...heated discussion...with an SAPD Lt. I was told that I would lose my rank if I was found to be guilty of lying, and of what I was accused. My rank has not been taken, so I must assume I was cleared. However, seeing as the other person was not punished either, maybe it was just forgotten.
There has also been things happening that I don't agree with, and I don't see the point of fighting anymore! We're all here to relax, right? Anyway...the person I looked up the most posted his resignation too (Paul) although I hope he comes back to the SAPD...he's honest and uses common sense. I fear I wouldn't last long without him in the SAPD anyway!
Moving on...
I've had a good few years, and my 2nd anniversary of being an SAPD Officer would have been this July (hooray!). One fella once told me he would resign when I did...I'm telling him to only resign if he wants to, not because of me!
I'd like to offer my thanks in particular to the following people, who moulded me into who I am now:
"Cap'n GiacJr"
Swig
Smey
Nexxt
KhornateMonkey
Paul Caltson
All my Academy Instructors
Vincent Vice
Flameman
Sean Caltson
Lionel Valdes
Marshal Lopez
Max Payne
Julio Collin
Gibson
Steven Jeffrey (despite of recent events, you've been there for me for a while)
There's certain things about the SAPD I don't like, and do think that they restrict fun. I chose to stay this long because I thought I should, not because it was the best thing around.
Having said that, there has been lots of good times!
Sorry for leaving you alone Gibson...and sorry for the past few days of inactivity, I was in Wales.
I might return in the future, but maybe not.
Have fun, stay safe, and see you in the field! Hell, maybe some of us may patrol together!
Yours in policing,
Sheriff Benjamin Blake
Proud Argonathian
:ps: Can someone PLEASE promote Gibson? I can certainly vouch for his work...I'd say the same for StatuZ and Monkey, but I've worked with Gibson the most, so I know all that he has done...he does an awful lot of work, and he deserves to move to a rank which actually fits in with him being a PD leader.
I guess that is my parting wish...

Wise words.. That's why you've been inactive lately I see! Ben, you will always be a friend of mine, and a good department leader! That's why I've considered you as an excellent example of law enforcer! I respect your decision, and you will be souly missed, you were and you will be always a natural leader, and a good officer.. See you soon!
-
Ben, you are one of the people i respected much. I appreciated your work, you were a great leader.
-
Farewell Ben, I'll miss our roleplays even though they were rare, they were surely fun!
-
Goodbye Ben. We sure did had some fun times in DPD!
-
You seem to leave because you had some trouble with someone : ( You could have try to fix it before to come with this decision .. Thus I resoect your choice.
I liked you like a Sergeant Sheriff and a person, I'm sad to see you go.
Take care!!

:redface:
I've known you for a while Ben, even when I was a freecup, hopefully you won't be leaving Argonath and we'll stay in touch. Keep away from that city though!
-
Sad to hear Sheriff, I would like to thank you for everything you taught me,
I hope you return, Good luck.

And STAY OUT!!
Nah, kidding, and cheers for the spot on your list, you're right, I am a special guy.
Nah, kidding around again, Monkey relayed some wise words to you, stick by them! :sheriff:

I had problems with the way someone was acting, but it's just one of a string of reasons I chose to leave...one of them being that I do not know what my apprenticeship (starting in July) will bring, so don't want to risk being totally inactive as a PD leader!
Caught the "Sergeant" bit there just in time! Was gonna have to beat you with one of my whiskey bottles...see you around when I'm on light blue duty maybe!
:redface:
I've known you for a while Ben, even when I was a freecup, hopefully you won't be leaving Argonath and we'll stay in touch. Keep away from that city though!
Mah baby freecup! Now you're one of the older ones...damn, time flies by! I won't be leaving Argonath, for now at least...and of course I'll keep in touch, of course annoying you through facebook ;)
Yuck, never a city boy, ever!
Sad to hear Sheriff, I would like to thank you for everything you taught me,
I hope you return, Good luck.
Haha, what can I say, just doing my job! It was a pleasure, and a greater pleasure to see what you have now achieved ;)
Thanks, and good luck to you too!
And STAY OUT!!

Couldn't expect anything else from you, could I?! Damn brothers eh, who'd have them? :lol:
And of course you're special...

So, topic locked!

Requesting another discussion on this, my activity will not be to the standard of a PD Leader, and I don't wish to burden a PD with my lack of activity.
I'm fed up of letting people down.
I may request reinstatement in the future, so don't have a heart attack (again) Paul!
Take care.
-
Accepted.
Good luck..

We sure had a lot of fun times in the DPD when Swig and Giac were leading it. I hope to see you again sometime. Best of luck in the future!

I'll be floating around, maybe as an ARPD Officer...like everyone else, so it seems! Though, I have noticed that the SAPD Command is still there...if a "reform" is being claimed, then at least make it look like you're reviewing the SAPD Upper Command! The title doesn't make you perfect...the real question is, who is fit for the title?
Its not aimed as an insult to the Command Staff, but in all honesty, how can anyone say that a reform just involves jerking off the officers?
I'd also like to point out that the Sheriffs, who seem to currently produce the best RP, will have been removed as part of this quasi-lockdown. Seeing as they run PD's as Lieutenants do, with even less support than city PD's, I think that might need to be checked too.
^ This point means, if you're gonna scrap PD leaders, then scrap them all (including Captains) and give them the positions back if they are deemed to deserve them in the review.
I've always been known as a guy who gets to the point, so sorry if that post offends anyone...though if it does, get over it, because last time I checked, GTA:SA was a game played on a PC ;)
Ciao for now.

Exactly my point, a point that got me 'fired', if we can call it like that. Ill miss your straight thinking. See you on the freecop sheriff force, i guess :d

Maybe, or maybe I'll turn to crime...or just administration and some genuine RP with some penguins, AV people, and whoever else stands in my path :gandalf:
