Have you read the official guidelines and do you agree to adhere to them? I most certainly do.

You recent posts within the IVMP section display that you are quite a power hunter. Having failed to abtain any significant position in LCPD, you turn to VCPD instead. So far from what I saw your intentions here are mere rank hunting. You hardly even play VCMP and you expect us to take you as a serious VCMP FBI Director candidate.
My opinions on your intentions in this department remain severely doubtful. Lets see if you can prove me wrong.

I turned to VCPD hoping to show my good side as I have no history here. I am not rank hunting, instead, I am working to join the VCPD. I am being serious.

[Kowalski.]

I would like to notify the VCPD that I am now using my new account and my Username is Dominic_Toretto.
My roleplay name is Dominic Toretto.

[Kowalski.]

I would like to bring to the VCPD's attention that my timezone is GMT 10+ THUS I MAY seem inactive but there is usually nobody on during the time in which I play.

[Huntsman]

Therefore you post patrol reports.

[Kowalski.]

Well, we had some suspects and it was fun getting used to the Vice City physics and controls but I managed to take some suspects down and I had a lot of fun which encourages me even further to join VCPD!

Try to include screenshots and such.

Noted. Future reports will be further elaborated with CCTV footage (ss)

Well, had some suspects and they were smuggling, so I jumped onto the yacht they were on and snuck onto the lower deck. We failed and kept trying until the guy somehow died 

After that, we had a few suspects, but it was, apart from the smuggling, a quiet day.

I would also like to bring to the jurisdiction of the VCPD that my legal (RP) name is Gunnar Bjorck however my alias (nickname) is Dominic Toretto.

Thank you so very much.

There was a reason why I asked you if you were ready to take the Session, because you obviously were not. Your knowledge of the map is at absolute zero. Procedures and Regulations topic has all the locations pointed out and since they are very few in Vice City, they're not that hard to learn. Instead of getting to provide backup to an officer as quickly as possible, what you choose to do instead is constant nugging in the radio for a 10-20. You do not do that. If an officer can't respond to your 10-20 request that means he's obviously either in pursuit or being shot at, hence why you utilise the /area command and respond on your own. Your tactical awareness is also an absolute zero. Instead of taking cover you decide to take a spot where an M4 simply pops you to the head. From today's situation I saw nothing but complete lack of any tactical and pursuit knowledge, and the main condition before taking Session 1 is to be aware of them. Not to mention that for the entire situation you kept constantly bothering me in the radio instead of focusing on taking these guys down. "Sergeant this, Sergeant that, Sergeant, listen to my completely awful plan while I stand there in the middle of the open being headshotted by an M4 and give these guys yet more weapons by dying so quickly". I was really at the verge of just firing you but I decided to give you another chance.

Dear Cadet,

I would like to inform you that you have failed your Session No. 1 General Knowledge of Procedures and Regulations.
You have shown 0% performance and have failed the session with an absolute zero.

Sergeant, you're right. I've disappointed you and the VCPD today. I will work on this and I will not let you down next time.

[Huntsman]

Do not be too discouraged. You are not the first one noir the last one to fail this Session, especially under me. I think that this is one of the most important sessions that tests the common sense of the future Officer, as it is something that many officers lack nowadays, hence why I treat it seriously. I would like to recommend you to STOP nugging your superriors over the radio so much. If there is a shootout going on and you know it, you do not start coming up with plans of your own and start bothering your superrior about it while he is being underfire by five + armed suspects. Instead, you rush to his aid. Especially when your plans are simply unrealistic due to being outnumbered, and lack common sense (You use a patriot for cover.. You realise that best case scenario is they'll blow you up before you even manage to bail out instead of just outright headshotting you?). Radio usage is critical, yes, but you use it for all the wrong reasons. You have /area and /bu at your disposal. USE THEM.

I'll lift your restriction. Take the session whenever ready. You were obviously not ready for the session this time, so I reset the progress. It will not reflect on your record.

Thanks Sergeant, I will probably still use those 2 days time to reflect and work on myself.

Elaboration:
Well, sadly there is no CCTV for this report, however, there were some suspects and I sadly wasn't able to catch them all.

Personal Thoughts:
I believe my shooting skills are terrible. I believe I could use some additional training, even though my fast switching is getting better.

Session 3 will correct this issue. Ofcourse, keep practicing fast - switching on your own. It makes it a hell lot of easier when the cadet already knows the basics.

[Kowalski.]

I would like to ask the VCPD Academy the following question:

Are there any tips you can give me for S1? After that shitshow I displayed in S1, I could use the help.
