VOTE PASSED - Remove Faction Restrictions

[Samatlewis]

IMO this would really reduce the long standing deep rooted hatred that forms from each side for each other when you’re just stuck playing your one side. Kill a colleague whilst “off-duty”, fair enough you’re letting your hair down.. go amongst the ranks tomorrow and arrest the bad guys with him!

Its really simple if this is going to happen - police and Poseidon can play rebel or faction between 12am - 12pm [ Off peak hours ] 

It happens in another place and it just works, keep it simple.

Very much like this idea. It would mean that the people that want to have fun and mess about with there friends would be able to have a chill time and then go back to normal during the regular time. I would say the only con to this would be for time zones.

Not remove restrictions, but loose them up a bit. Maybe 5 days/month? Sounds reasonable

This could also encourage people to play on the under populated off peak restarts makeing the server more appeling to the non UK time zones as it is populated!

Great idea that does work on other servers

What always made me leave police after few months was that i had to wait 3 months after i became PC or PPC i dont recall now,to take a week of holidays to go on as rebel. After that i had to wait another 2 months for a week. When you are active as a cop it get repetetive after while. And week every 2 months is defo not enough,if smth make it atleast a day or two every week. That should be sufficient.

Early morning reply! Let's go bois and girls!! 

Okay, I've had a little looksie through all the posts and the on and off comments and arguments and etc.. It seems all yall care about is the activity within your factions, which is fair enough! You've worked hard to get to your positions and don't want that to be thrown away with a dead faction... which I promise most likely won't happen

Reading through we had a comment from @Nalurah who had ideas regrading a completely different character for each faction! This being one for Civ, one for POL or POS and one for NHS. Now, I completely love this idea! 

Now my opinion on the whole thing!  

If this were implemented, I'd like to suggest a more vigorous way of accessing information within specialised units! At the moment, any member of the specialised units ranging from lets say recruit to senior agent can see anything within the documents given to them! If your complaints are gonna be on Meta why not restrict those to command -Being director generals/ Deputy etc- and then only giving the info on operatons when the patrols are happening! Meaning it isn't sent to the Discord and only those on the patrol will know about it.

Or you can only play rebel if you are not in a primary unit (as these are the ones people are worried about info being taken from) - those in secondary units are fine to but if in a primary they can’t (Jordan Good initially had this idea) OR in these primary units where people have the documents give them the choice to either go all the way in but not play rebel or get to a certain point, where they are limited on certain things in the faction - weapons/clothing/documents but can also play rebel at free will

That’s no fun. I think that the majority of the police are in a primary unit. So I don’t think this is the solution we need, as this would just stop most of the police from being able to play rebel. I get what you mean as we need a solution, but that would just be unfair for a large amount of the police.

As far as I know, houses from cops on active duty cannot be robbed. Correct me if wrong. 

i personally thinks all cops houses should be able to raid also adds to the fun i also think there should be more than 4/5 gang members on befor you can break in to a gangbase 

 

[P4ndem1c]

I would personally say no, two main reasons:

1. Big amount of people (talking about senior players) know each other well and information will slip and will always continue to slip through.

2. I will not be fair to have an extensive amounts of cops/poseidon running around guns blazing with current state of server player count when we are already running thin.

Suggesting a massive holiday revamp and rules applied which will restrict any communication with online cops when you are on as rebbel and/or rule/regulation which if broken will have massive consequences towards players progression in police/poseidon.

Would say that neither of things will or would happen as i myself can't trust half of police in knowing info and mainly share it with closest ones. So the information will still slip and find cracks in the rules or restrictions.

I’ve seen a lot of people mention this, and this info is leaked 24/7, us rebels are told by specific members when you are gonna raid our shit so regardless it makes no difference. 

2. I will not be fair to have an extensive amounts of cops/poseidon running around guns blazing with current state of server player count when we are already running thin.

Again this makes no sense, Poseidon and police are constantly fighting eachother anyways so how does this have anything to do with removing faction restrictions to let fellow faction members play rebel?. A good amount of the votes are from faction leaders and it seems 80% of the actual faction members are voting to let them play rebel, I get why faction leaders are voting no, but end of the day things need to change. The server needs more active rebels to give cops something to do other than go into posiedon lands and get into a 3 hour gunfight with them like what normally happens.

VOTE PASSED

I understand that the factions have some concerns about this, They will update the community shortly with there full concerns and any compromises they have, Any compromise will be put to a vote with completely moving the restriction.

The factions I know will fully respect and take on board the communities wishes so if no compromise alternative is available they will work on removing restrictions before the weekend.
