At the end of the day, enlisted should be taught how to counter base camping methods. This includes going around through different OBJs, counter-sniping from base, taking vehicles, etc. As long as snipers exist, base camping will exist. It's a faction issue, not a server issue. (Just my opinion)

Description: For a lot of the time on this server, I have been in a Military Police faction. I have even experienced the Military Police faction from both sides of the server, Afghanistan and United States. With this, I have ran into some extremely common issues with the rope restraints. Issue #1: The jumping issue with people flying into the air still exists. There was a huge issue with this back when I was extremely active (Echo), and for this problem to still happen daily and exist is crazy to me. I have had countless arrests on the server, prime hours, with 11B minges jumping up in the air and flying to heaven just to come back down and die. This is basically a "get out of jail free" card that is played by most minges that do get arrested. I know you can report for FailRP, but I'd prefer to keep things inside of roleplay scenarios instead of ruining fun and experiences with staff sits. Issue #2: This also is complimentary to the jumping issue. The gravity with these restraints is insane during arrests. Someone wanted would, for example, go into a high area inside the US base. From here, they would get arrested and when they would get brought down, they would instantly die upon impact. (Even with the fall not being that high). These areas such as but isn't specific to On top of a Debrief room, on top of a bunk, in a watch tower, etc. All these areas are quite accessible for anyone to get on top of and is a primary escape route for criminals. Issue #3: The "Struggle" ability on the restraints. There has been an option added to the restraints known as "Struggle" (I'm pretty sure that's what it is called). This option gives prisoners the opportunity to break free from cuffs and either pull out a weapon and blast everyone inside the Military Police/Kidnapping Jails, or they work a way to escape by either waiting for an opportunity or just flat out doing the ammo crate exploit method to get through walls. Not only have I been RDM'd several times due to this option being available, but it also creates more drama and ruckus within any RP scenario. For Issues 1 and 2, I don't know if there is a way to fix. You could possibly attempt to code in that they are immune to fall damage while in cuffs. This may force some people to glitch and jump up and down repeatedly, but then again I don't really know. There is truly a resolution to everything, and I think something could be coded to force this to work. For Issue 3, I just recommend removing the Struggle option away from cuffs. We didn't have them on Echo, I don't know why or how they just appeared there. But I think a lot of Officers and Military Police would prefer if the option was either removed or disabled. And even if it was meant for scenarios, the people that arrested the person can always just release them and RP as if they had struggled free... It really isn't that difficult to solve. The reasoning for this change is pretty flat out and simple, it removes the likelihood of people causing issues for Military Police or Officers. All MP and Officers are told not to abuse cuffs, so for every arrest, there is reasoning behind it. There should be no option for someone to be restrained and imprisoned and for them to still have a chance at escape. I'm willing to answer any questions in the thread about the suggestion that can be brought up, but I think this is a good fix overall!

Also to compliment with this, it should also be able to give Officer whitelist for that faction. But I do like this idea, why have someone grind out for COL and get no benefit for war? Definitely a +1 for me!

Also would like to put these into here, just for future reference. (These acts were all done 14 hours after he posted this application.) Explanation : Jolly was arrested for murder by me, his arrest was posted and he kept abusing the "struggle" function on cuffs. While he had gotten out of the cuffs, he decided it'd be a good idea to suicide roleplay while in the jail cells. As seen in the chat "[RP] 11B SDS Jolly hangs self with rope". After he types this in chat, he switches to US Army : Support. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/YdsfPKNwnE7Uy/d13379IEeXQM?invite=cr-MSxCYjAsNjUzMzEzOTQs Jolly after this act was arrested, unlawfully, by 11A 2LT River (which I had thought AWZQ had arrested him at the time). River was trying to make things right but this was going against the NLR rule. When he was brought in, I decided to release him due to NLR. As I was explaining NLR to River and released Jolly, he goes and says this... https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/Ydv5LUQbOzCx0/d1337yWrbO5d?invite=cr-MSwxTXAsNjUzMzEzOTQs Neither of these incidents sit right with me, especially when this person is going for staff, I filed a report but no staff was on. But I'd rather put this in the staff application he has up just to show some of why Jolly doesn't deserve staff.

I agree with a lot of these rule changes, these rules are extremely outdated and I think that they should have a "freshen up" However, there are a few things I am "iffy" on to say the least, I don't think Taliban should have access to snipers during peacetime. The thing about the KOS is if you see it, you can enforce it. Most of 11B, and some SOC on US, can't identify a sniper from 50 feet away, especially with how dark the map is. And we have already suffered from a pretty bad base camping issue within war, what's going to stop Taliban from translating that into peacetime when everyone wants to do their tryouts? I also don't think cosmetics shouldn truly be ignored, if you're running RPG, something with rockets and a rocket launcher on the back of it, then you truly understand what you're getting yourself into. The RPG enforcement rule is a rare one but it does make common sense why someone with rockets and a rocket launcher would get enforced by US. The ROE used to enforce that if any grenades/guns were seen on a playermodel, they were KOS. However, it was very difficult to distinct what was grenades/guns and what was just ammo pouches, so it was removed. At least from what I've heard. Used to be enforced, don't know what happened. And I think they should get staff permission due to the fact that when people do switch, there are too many switching at once. This sways war, so I think staff should still require to give permission for a swap. (PS. MRP gamers aren't that smart...) Just no. Cars = lag, lag = everyone not being happy. Plus late night shenanigans would be off the chain with cars. VDM would become a major issue really quickly when "Tali RAC SSGT Shithead47" decides he wants to spawn a car and run over the entire US side inside their own base. It's not the hard to grind for ingame cash, a few words, a couple payrolls, and you're already at 50k. And carjacking isn't really an RP scenario I want to be apart of, may just be me though. Be with the group that raids, usually they take cars, organize groups, etc. Being late isn't an excuse for an entire rule to be changed. Personally, on US, we already deal with DBs not being called on time. Usually they are extremely late, 3 minutes to war, and an OBJ never gets decided upon. Letting someone raid and destroy that entire debrief while already behind on schedule wouldn't make this any better. Keep the rule the same, it's perfectly fine as is. Less of skill matter, more of getting a feel for the server. I was told when ranking up early enlisted that it's more for the experience, not for the skill. And at the same time, PVTs are allowed to show up for trainings, etc. Just have them go to those and when they've shown some type of commitment to the server, they can finally tryout for a SOC they're interested in. I understand letting enlisted dual faction, but if you're already committed to be an O-1+ in that faction, you might as well just serve your time. O-1+ are meant to be loyal to their faction and are meant to help with whatever is needed. They can't really do that while in a completely other faction. Pretty simple rule to follow, no issues with it. Especially with friend factions being an issue of the past, I think this rule has done good to combat that. Are you just here to try to make a friend faction of your own? (joke ofc) Those are probably all the rules I don't see needed or have questions about. If you want to give your honest feedback on why these rules should be changed, added, or removed, please either respond to it in this forum or personally DM me with all these reasons. I'm very fond on the fact that someone is taking notice on the server and wants to do good with it! Once again Bishop, you continue to impress me and the entire server with these changes you have been trying to make. And as one MRP player, and pretty sure I speak for the whole community, thank you for taking notice in this server!

-1, you remind me of me when I first joined the server. Giant minge and breaks the rules and gets away with it. But with this, I expect you to come out over top and improve your reputation on the server! I think, with a little bit of improvement on character and discipline, you would be a good fit in the staff team! Wish the best of luck to you Jolly! (Also, for next time, if you need help on applications, message me or someone that is trusted. We're here to help!)

y'all stay safe out here.

finally, someone picks up on how garbage these classes truly are. +1

CBRN is a great player within the community, I have talked with him on multiple occasions within TeamSpeak and he has shown nothing but respect to me and others. He is fairly new to the server, but I like the thought of him being apart of the staff team. I have seen nothing but greatness, dedication and maturity from CBRN and I hope that he can continue that whilst being on the staff team. All of GB thinks very highly of you CBRN, and I wish the best of luck with your application! +1!

LMFAO! Jokes aside, Carlman you have been outstanding with how reformed you have become. You've gone from a pretty terrible reputation to tolerable. As someone that was given a second chance for a staff rank, I think that you are most deserving of the same opportunity I was given. I wish the best of luck to you, and I'll go ahead and give this staff application a respectable +1!

+1 DEADBEAAAAAAAAAAT! Good luck to you!

-1 Do you have any proof that the old account existed? Any screenshots? Clips? Steam ID? I don't know about others, but this application just seems like there is no thought behind it. You didn't even reach the minimum amount of paragraphs that are required for an application to be valid! Maybe grind out some playtime, make a good reputation for yourself in the server, and plan out the application when you reapply. I wish the best of luck to you

+1 I've talked with Arma on multiple occasions due to him being in Green Beret. Very cool personality overall and seems to take major interest within the server.

Who are you reporting? [Staff/Player]: Tali SPC OracleYour in-game name: 18B MSG Towelie | Tali RAC SGM TowelieYour SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:555365615In-game name of reportee: STEAM_0:0:753960600Date & Time of incident: 3:30 PM | 1/8/2023Timezone: ESTWhat happened? (include any proof): There was a 3:30PM war on Sunday, 1/8/2023. The war was issued in factory. Oracle , an SPC with 3 hours at this time, was hitting some crazy clips and flicks. Evidence 1: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/PPH8cYyu3p5WJ/d13377YXIaqp?invite=cr-MSxNeEQsNjUzMzEzOTQs Reasoning for Suspicion: Not only was I behind the wall when he "flicked" onto me, but also he only hit me for headshots. I didn't think it was that suspect at the time but I clipped it anyways. Evidence 2: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/PPLQRkRdXa5eZ/d1337rA8KNIw?invite=cr-MSxKa3AsNjUzMzEzOTQs Reasoning for Suspicion: As he was entering into OBJ, he had made a jump looking into OBJ (not at me) and he hit the absolute craziest flick I have ever seen hitting all headshots. This is where it was blatant. Evidence 3: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/PPQSKSDmfE90M/d13379JpR3GK?invite=cr-MSxpMlgsNjUzMzEzOTQs Reasoning for Suspicion: Wow. Just wow. This dude must have the absolute maximum hours in gmod being able to hit JUST headshots from that distance. This guy is just CRACKED. Talked to staff members while this happened, they said they couldn't do anything and said the evidence wasn't enough... If I'm wrong, I'm wrong... better to be safe than sorry.

mad cause bad lol

actually a W update ngl

As I went towards out of the room, I was going to change my name to "19D man 19D man" as seen in the ban, but I was arrested by Shwade (as you can see him run towards me). I had no intention to keep the rank of MSGT as I was messing around and didn't feel the need to be a higher enlisted.

(include any proof): We were doing promotions at separate debrief, and I decided to joke around and change my rank to MSGT. Yumz intervened asked me to change my name alongside 2LT Shwade. However, I was arrested quickly after when told to do so and I couldn't change my name when the command was given. Once I was released from cuffs, I changed my name to "19D man 19D man" as seen in the photo.Why should your ban be removed?: The rule for Self Promoting is that the 2 day ban occurs after a staff intervening and the rank still persists. As Yumz did tell me to fix my name, I was arrested very quickly by 2LT Shwade and wasn't able to change my name until after I was released. But once released, I changed my name and the rank no longer persisted.

Based off of this alone, I'll be -1ing your staff application. You seem extremely toxic to me and you have little to no activity within the Afghanistan Side of the server. I have interacted with you several times as a MP and 9 times out of 10, you are toxic during the interaction. An attitude change is needed before you can take the next step and become a staff member. No hard feelings!

It doesn't need a buff.

If you have an L music choice, you're getting banned by me personally. (jk)

Makes the server funny. The fact of someone having the opportunity and going “wow, you really fucking suck” over my dead body is a funny concept to me.

+1 Dude is a great officer for base faction and a good ANP player.

+1 + Confirming my referral for this application. As 055th COL and a gamemaster, Shax has shown nothing but dedication to the server. He has became one of my most active and trustworthy officers in the faction. I think, with the good activity and the maturity that Shax has shown, that Shax can make a great gamemaster. Can't wait to see you succeed Shax!

As the COL of 055, Aspect has good intentions within the server and has been extremely helpful within the time of 055. I have enjoyed his presence inside 055 and he has done nothing but good. He has great experience with over 400 hours and can’t wait for more of your contribution in the server. With the dedication you’ve shown and the activity you have given, you seem like a perfect fit for the staff team! +1
