Does anyone else get this?
« on: April 25, 2008, 01:03:45 am »
I swear, every day that I'm on duty, some random people would PM or call me asking:

"hey, I need a driver's license, give me one now"

Not only is this rude but it is completely pointless. I was wondering why people asked me this but then I remembered that if you do /buycar without a license, it tells you to get one from the ARPD...

From what I have seen and heard, you never get a driver's license from the ARPD...so why do people get that message?

Does anyone else get bothered by this? If so, is there anything that can be done about it?

Thanks for reading

I dont know who was your training officer, but he must mention that.. if someone asks help how to get license or passport, you must give them porper answer, and information. Even if its just PM, you are the guard of Argonath so you must give hand to the new citizens.

I agree with the Chief, but I for one, have never had that experience.

I ALWAYS tell them. I am not complaining about having to tell them, I am simply saying that it shouldn't tell people to get a license from the ARPD...instead it should tell them to get one from the AVDS. It would avoid confusion

I get that a lot. I also get tons of people asking me if I can give them ARPD rights just so they can see the different uniforms...

 You guys are lucky ... every second free cop on the server is asking me to be FBI... I explain to all of them, but when like 5 people ask me at the same time, I just can't handle it ...

 Also people are asking me to give them the server scripts and make them admins ... how nice is that.

I certainly don't want to recieve PMs, but it is my duty as an admin to listen to people and help them ...

I have found this too, I just pick who I reply too, although most do get replies, afterall whether we admins or not if we can help people they more likely to become good rpers rather than angry dmers..

Sometimes even as admin you just want some rest and piece. So you do /setpm off.  :)
Altho i dont do it alot, cuz i also need to set houses and change their interiors. Thats the job of level 4.
So yea... Sometimes it can make you tired.

Thanks Car :)

Another way for admins, as Xcasio and Sharphis explained me is to make a non-admin account so you can relax. Because as an admin, you should always answer to players they told me so ... But yeah weirdest questions, top 5 :
5- Can I be admin ?
4- Can I have your password ?
3- Where is ARPD ?
2- Make me real cop please
1- How can I cheat ?

So as you may see, there's alot of misunderstanding about what is SAPD and it's role. Some think ARPD are cops that can kill people (Very few but still) ... Not fun at all.

By the way, are you guys concerned by the fact that alot of people insult SAPD officers and try to give a bad name to law enforcement agencies such as SAPD, SWAT and FBI ?

I thought there were rarely few, but alot?  What kind of insults are thrown against us, and if possible, why?
