Cops growing weed - Do NOT do it. PLEASE READ

[Jcstodds]

  Growing weed on duty is not allowed, as it gives cops clear advantage over civilians, and can lead to police abuse.

  Players growing weed on duty may receive copbans from administration. Therefore if you see any ARPD cops doing it, please politely notify them of this. Alert admins if they ignore or persist.

Where is says it is legal for cops to grow weed on duty ? It is still a reason for immediate copban as it is
a) using the script to gain advatange over other players
b) using the cop role inappropriate

As for the law, this was to stop cops camping on the weed fields and suspecting any player who entered one.

  As you can see, this is not up for negotiation, and until a script is worked out to disallow cops to grow weed, please be vigilante until then. Same goes for cops growing heroin.

If more appropriate, please move this to News and Announcements.

Civilian is growing weed, cop just goes to talk with the civilian.
The weed plant appears and cop does /harvestweed.

Stealing weed is not a rulebreak. But is it allowed for cops?

Good point


Does this counts for the SAPD, or the full cop crew? (Just to clear it out, I think it is EVERYONE on duty)

  Same applies, cops should not be stealing from civilians, or harvesting weed. This is probably worse than growing it themselves!

  Yes - For all cops.
 I post here so SAPD can at least help enforce this by making ARPD cops aware that it is not allowed. Since admins can be very busy, we really do appreciate help from all the players.

Didnt CBF say cops can grow on duty? o.o i guess gandalf superseeds him

I am not sure how this could bring any advantage to cops by labelling it script abuse. Weed is legal to grow which means cops cant do anything about anyone on the weedfarms. Civilians cant be arrested for growing weed absolutely nothing can be done about that, so i ask what is the unfair advantage of the cops growing weed.

However it is unprofessional and inappropriate for a police officer to be growing weed where he should be confisticating them when they are being distrubted.

In my Eyes, When I see a cop growing weed on duty, I would think He would be selling it on duty too.. That why I don't like it..

Let's see.. cop comes to weedfield, civilian tries to protect.. cop suspects the person for assault and kills him..

Or.. civilian comes to weedfield, cop tells civilian to leave and he refuses.. cop suspects the person for ignoring orders and kills him.

Or let's say the cop are selling weeds on duty.. other cops can't suspect him for dealing drugs.
