It is inevitable. No matter how much we complain and no matter how many restrictions they put in place, we need to come to the realisation that children (immature ones in particular) are going to get their hands on this game. Kids who treat this game like GTA or COD. It is going to happen no matter what precautions we take. I would like to discuss possible ways that we, as a community can come together and instead of prevention, we need to decide how to deal with the issues. I recommend that we act mature. If a kid is mass RDMing, don't kick and scream, don't act like a kid in OOC, just ignore them. I know it will be hard, but it is the only way we can discourage kids from playing like that. Kids are apart of the community, and while we would all rather not have them here, its not something we can control. If a kid is RDMing, run and hide and quietly report it on the forums. Act like you arent even annoyed, like you just want to report it incase it happens again. They commit these actions for an equal and opposite reaction, we dont want to give them the reactions that entice them to commit the atupid actions. Can we as a community agree to treat these situations calmly? Let me know your thoughts below.

@Valtorix I honestly cannot take this person seriously. The amount of utter garbage that they have displayed all over these forums has really astounded me. I get that there will be trolls, and small children who just want to grief, but just the amount of disrespect and general asshatery that thecop34 has put forth kind of ticks me off. Since there will be law enforcement officials in game and on the forums, i don't want them to be given a bad name. I really don't want the toxicity around, although it is inevitable, in this world because of the sheer size, scope and realism that it entails. So to make this reply on topic. I think this idea would deter so many people from playing. Imagine you work all week to finally get that thing you wanted, you buy it. You're so happy because you finally made your goal. Then some "cop" pulls you over for no reason, or some punk decides he wants what you have. Boom, you get shot and lose everything. Now @thecop34, Imagine that person was you. Would you even respawn in the world? Or would you just give up and leave the game because you're so annoyed that that system is in place? In conclusion, I say this "idea" would not fit this game at all. It would ruin the game and fun for all involved.

The amount of grammatical errors this kid has regurgitated makes me sorry for future generations. I can't wait to hear the crying that comes when they (he or she) do not pass the test for becoming a police officer, or when they get banned from every single server because they are so immature. So @thecop34 i suggest you go play gmod with the rest of the children and leave the adults alone before you get put in your place. Also, good luck during training. I seriously hope you can grow up very soon.

This may start arguments.

Glad to have finally made an account so I can make a presence here. I cannot wait for the game to be released, but I have to get a computer built our bought lol

They wouldn't buy an RPG if they didn't like it. Who are you to dictate who buys a game? If I want to purchase a game, I will purchase it. Why would I purchase a game if I wasn't interested? This is an RPG called Identity, everyone is unique and plays uniquely. If YOU aren't interested in that, maybe YOU shouldnt buy the game. That's just tough luck. In this game guns will be rare and so will cars so I wouldn't expect this to happen. Even still, as I said before, you have no right to dictate who plays a game. Whitelisting official servers is an outrageous idea and honestly quite ignorant, how will people learn how to play if they don't get the opportunity to play until they are experts? Just because people don't play how you want them to doesn't mean they shouldn't play.

I know you're talking about Arma 3 (not sure why) but I've heard this same argument made about this game. The answer is: people who aren't interested in roleplay really shouldn't be buying a roleplay game.

No, it wouldn't be fair to the people who aren't really interested in role-playing. And also, I could buy 500$ worth of game and be unable to play because a random guy thinks that I'm not good enough. If you want whitelist, find a private server.

This is not libertarian at all. "Sex reassignment surgery or SRS is going to be free of charge." This is extremely anti-libertarian, nothing is free, so by saying you are going to provide a free service, you are saying you are going to force someone (in this case the surgeon) to do the governments bidding. Any time the government is going to do something for free, it implies a use of federal force.

Bob Ross Inc: Promoter of Fine art would be more than happy to provide art lessons at the University. With only our most experienced art tutors doing the teaching, we are sure you will learn quickly on how to make quality art!

There should be a class on how not to fail RP, lmfao.

@BioHaze This would be really interesting to see how it would be implemented in the game in an official capacity. Of course, even if there was no real implementation, players could technically make a business out of it where the business owner (teacher) teaches players/customers (students) how to do something or about something. Very interesting role play could come out of this and it could be very usefull (ex: teaching controls and functions of the game for starters). Family First, Mission Always. Stay Safe.

Well one kind of solution would be that we could handle the occassional RDMer as a terrorist or mass shooter and give the SWAT team and police something to do. Besides, the devs have said that firearms will be difficult to get, unlike GTA or COD. I bet most civs wont even carry a gun. Automatic weapons will be crazy expensive and hard to get, plus they would lose them once they are shot down by police. It would probably take these kids weeks of playing to obtain another powerful firearm. Plus, there will be large jail sentences and respawn timers for these RDMers so they cant just spawn again 10 minutes later and do the same shit.

The CCU is one of the oldest political organizations. We provide conservative parties with the resources they need to win, and the citizens, the resources they need to stay informed. As a candidate / party The reason a candidate would want to join the CCU is clear. Providing that you agree with the majority of our platform, you have a direct way to almost automatically get recognition by our members. If endorsed for office by the CCU, you automatically receive an advantage against others on the ballot, how? Because members of the CCU will likely vote for you, since you share the common goals of this political organization. As a citizen As a citizen it is hard to stay informed politically, the CCU aims to help you differentiate the candidates. Candidates endorsed by the CCU share the views of our platform. This means you automatically get to know a little bit about who you are voting for, helping you make an informed decision.

First off, no. I do not intend on running for office. I am providing a party for people who do intend on running for office, who want something unique. Something that stands out, that one grape in a bunch of blackberries. The Peoples Party (TPP) isn't your standard party. Our policies differ from most as you, the people arent our main priority. Do we want you to be happy? Yes, but we would rather ensure everyone is educated and employed before that. You may be wondering why I would say this, and the truth is that I actually care about the success of this island. I'm not gonna sit back and blow smoke up your backsides to get votes, I strive to make my candidates succeed through the truth, not a pretty face. Taxes For some odd reason every party wants to reduce taxes. I am one of the only people to actually want the opposite; to increase them. Now, I know what your thinking. Why would anyone want less money? Well, I intend on using your money to make your life easier. I will take a % of your income which varies depending on your salary. Now yes, it will be alot but hear me out. This % will cover many thing such as free public transport for employed individuals, free legal consultation and most importantly a free healthcare system. If you invest alot into small companies and/or charity you are eligible to file for a tax return at the end of a year, giving you back some momey for your comtribution to society. This tax will also cover any emergency service operative 3 days of food every week. Below is the taxes for salaries. $9,999 > = 7.5% Tax $10,000 - $19,999 = 25% Tax (Potential of 10% tax return) $20,000 - $39,999 = 35% Tax (Potential 20% tax returns) $40,000 - $99,999 = 45% Tax (Potential 35% tax returns) $100,000 < = 50% Tax (Potential 45% tax returns) On top of this, if you own a business then no matter how much you are making, there is a fixed 30% tax rate on your profits (after employee payroll). On any products there is a 7.5% sales tax in VAT. I also plan on removing sales tax during the month of December, and a 50% tax reduction on anyone earning less than $20,000 during the same month. Goals One of our main goals is to introduce committees that anyone in the community can volunteer for. This gives the power to the people, allowing them to voice their opinions and put forward their own ideas to be implemented. We will also have committees dedicated to communicating with prisoners and helping them to prevent themselves from reoffending. I do also want to put in place a programme in which convicts and people who cannot get employment after 2 real weeks can do community service and delivery jobs for me and earn enough to keep them alive. As far as law enforcement goes, I plan to use those taxes to reduce crime rates significantly, giving police and other emergency services a larger yet more controlled budget. Regular patrols will occur, and you should never expect a precinct to have a slow work day. I am open to more ideas but until the game comes out this is all I've got.

Thank you for letting us know about this system, and being polite about it. We have changed it.

What the heck is macos

All he says is "not and argument" lmao. This guy and his movement is a total joke.

Also, guns do kill people. Why would you spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to do a background check on people when you could easily ban guns and only sell them to a few licensed and registered people?

Okay, I was watching gameplay of Arma 3 and it occurred to me how a seemingly forgotten little aspect could be useful to the endeavors of the Identity Law Enforcement. Now a disclaimer: that I do not own Arma 3 so I cannot say just how easily these UAV's handled nor how game changing they were. Now knowing from reading through the forum and how Identity is placed in a Modern Era, I would like to assume that drones would be available to the people of the island. So in turn my idea The Police force of Identity could have small aerial drones, piloted by a user from a remote location, that could be used to scout out enemy locations in a building or a compound. Maybe they could use them to track a suspicious shipment down a highway, and by not using a cruiser therefore not alerting the trucker allowing him to be traced back to his supplier. Now I know that this could seem ambitious and a little extravagant for a simple city police force to have. But from what I understand from reading the news, some cities in the U.S. have begun using these unmanned drones to do the same thing. As well, I could see criminals getting these and using them to plan heists or house invasions, or plot routes through the city. Maybe even use them to watch a rival gang from afar and track where they post their guys or where they hide their supplies, or whatever! But I could understand how y'all don't want this to be a life simulation over a military simulation, so you wouldn't want some military UAV drone flying around the city; Plus some people might cry privacy invasion since the drones can get almost anywhere. Just an idea, though, so take it as you will. (An example of a small aerial drone that could be deployed from the trunk of a Cruiser or by the SWAT team)

Dear Mr. Rogue in response to your application, you are hired as Director of Marketing. If the game comes out we will make a contract of you as employee of our company. what generally is in the contract is your salary, how much hours you must work in game and the Terms of Service. What also in the contract is that you have a probationary period of one week (real life) which means that you can take dismissal for any reason. But we can also fire you for any reason in the probationary period. Thank you for your response on this job offer. SoldierPro Director of Inspections Discovery Logistics Inc.

Welcome Brother! I love seeing the brothers come over.

PARAMO SOUNDS WAY BETTER

Not a problem, have a nice day

Thanks for explaining my point

yeah thanks for understanding, i won't contest what you said, i see the logic behind this statement

wow look whose throwing insults at another party until your party message is practical mate I wouldn't insult other on theirs talk about throwing stones in glass houses

Thanks, We would be happy to be of assistance in spreading the knowledge and fidelity that is spreading your paintbrush along the canvas, into colorful steaks of art!

That's would be awesome.

If i was to actually do this which im leaning towards, i will, then it wouldnt all be lectures. Imagine, its however long for the course. Starts off with a few lessons being the basics and ends with practicals using the real things. So for example, i may do a lecture on the fire brigade, give off a couple of lectures and then members of the fire brigade can come and give you a go on their equipment and such. Just an example but it would be good. Could also have more practical lessons such as art.

You're still not making an argument. Opinions are not arguments. For example, me liking the colour yellow, does not make the colour yellow a bad thing objectively (nor a good thing for that matter) etc. So just because you don't like yellow and state that yellow is a bad colour, does not mean universally that the colour yellow is bad or good. So when you say that the colour yellow is bad it is a statement based on your subjective opinion, therefor not an argument. That´s exacly what you're doing with anarchism in this case. Look If you don't like anarchism, fine. But be honest about it, but saying it won't work without any facts or statistics or objective empiricism is not an argument. You haven't said a single thing that dissaproves that anarchism does not work or won't last other than subjective non-arguments.

Here is my 2 cents on how I think the Cops and Robbers system should work. Step 1:Me and my friend are heading out for some scenes of nature, in the middle of the forest we get into a argument and I "accidentally" shot him with my hunting rifle. Step 2: A: There was a witness or B: Someone found the body. C: I get away with this. A: Witness calls it in and gives a description of me to the police, they scramble to the location and start searching for me. [Cops see a icon or something telling them I may match the description (if correct description was entered into police computer, a new case is created)), am not busted yet am a suspect and are being detained at gun point suspect of murder..] Meanwhile evidence is being collected, or blundered away, depending on skills \ experience of the CSI guy\ Cop. B: The body was found but there are no witnesses, cops check the footage of "security camera (CCTV) from the victims address to the location of the body. They match my photo to the one from a traffic light and I become wanted [Last seen with Watru on Main Street driving east]. Step 3: Body found or Witness called: Cops collect evidence at the crime scene, this will not stay in the world for ever but as long as the body dose ofc.They found a empty cartage, and its matched to my gun I am now wanted. "security camera (CCTV) from the victims address to the location and so on. This is just a example the point am trying to make is that it was way harder for me to get away with the crime then it was for the cop to figure out if I did it or not. And that being said we both had to work for it. Step 4: A am beeing charged with the crime or B: Am beeing let go for lack of evidence. Also if you want to try to talk your way out of go for it. Now this apply to other things as well e.g: running a red light (Picture is taken) you do that a couple of times. A warrant is issued for your arrest, if your driving a stolen car a description of the serial red light driver is posted. And cops can see that they may match a description (if they checked the today's unknown wanted felons list before leaving the station). Now if you have a career in murder then after a while you probably wont leave so much evidence around. (Maybe i moved the body, or picked up the empty cartrage.) And if you are a experienced cop you probably better at finding the evidence that is left behind. (Maybe a fingerprint was found on the body, cop finds blood in my trunk from moving of the body) Hope you guys see where am going with this. Thanks for reading. Cheers Watru

I thought about this topic a lot in the past few days. I came to the conclusion that it would be really great if its would be divided into 3 parts. 1. The harvesting of the raw cotton/silk on the field by farmers 2. The raw material will be refined in factories to a much finer yarn in order to produce cloth 3. The cloth can be used to produce certain clothes or for vehicles and housing. This could be taken even further, with the implementation of wild- or farming animals you would be able to get leather and use this to produce shoe, leather jackets, vehicle interior and nice couches etc.

Ladies and Gentlemen the time has come, After putting a lot of thought into it, the amount that people invested in us, the cost of real buses and fuel prices in mind along with the most populated of areas - We have devised our first bus line, the Inter-City Green Line with stops in some of the most visited and important areas on the Island utilizing just one line (for now) When the game is released, this rout will be our main focus for the Public Transport side of things. You may have to zoom into the map to see some of the stops, we wanted to make them more proportionate as bus stops and not bus zones The Core Transport Corporation would appreciate if the image of the rout below was not copied or re-distributed to others without prior permission, please respect this, thank you. Any feedback on this rout or other routs would be much appreciated.

Firstly, Webster would disagree with whatever definition of argument you have in your head. Secondly I find that these "emotional outbursts" you speak of are all you, no one else.

Hey @Mayglin. I am also recently new. I'm am happy to see so many positive role players joining the community. Welcome and I hope to see you in game! Family First, Mission Always. Stay Safe.

"not an argument" "not an argument" "not an argument" does anything else every come out of your mouth? Just because you dislike a point he made, doesn't mean you can just run away and hide from it.

I don't like this idea. Although this is supposed to be a real life simulator, a line has to be drawn somewhere.

consoles need to die off to be honest. I've never seen how a game like this could be possible on a console. Hopefully the devs will not spend their efforts on this.

Description: I'm starting up a armored car business, as in one of the trucks that comes to your local bank/store to take the money to the bank (No pun intended). I think it would be a cool job and an absolute necessity to keep all of the money safe. So basically you will contact this company and tell them size dimensions of what you need transported and we'll send out an armored truck to get the job done. We can branch out to other things, not just money. We would take whatever item it is to where it needs to go (Money---->Bank). We will insure your money or item(s) fully as we have insured you everything will be safe. Updates will come below as I develop the company. Update: We will be a no questions asked sort of company. You need it done and can pay for it, sounds good to me. Our company will also be international but will begin in the US but will eventually reach around the world as long as the business roles in. Insurance packages will be available as I said before but are how they sound, optional packages, we only offer the 100% package if you have a long-term contract with us. But there will be other contracts available for one time uses and things of that nature. CEO: Wacky Head of Operations: Jack Frost Head of Marketing: Head of Tech: Guards and Drivers: DragonDoctor Trollbomber Job descriptions: Head of Operations - Will make sure the trucks are where they need to be when they need to be there. Will need to keep a nice fluid schedule going. Head of Marketing - Will handle getting our business out there and letting people know what we do, basically advertising. Head of Tech - Will keep our company up to date on the latest and greatest technology to keep our trucks as secure as possible. Guard: Will either sit along side the driver in the front or in the back will the secured goods, there should be 1 driver and 2 guards per van. Driver: Will need to be able to handle a quick schedule and find quicker routes. Less time on the road equals the safest trip for the good. If possible: I'd like to add some sort of GPS system into the trucks and security cameras on the outside of them, not sure this will be implemented in the game but if it is I will sure be using it for this company. If you're interested in any of the positions listed (Taken or not) please feel free to message me about them and we can try to work something out.

And what taxes do you propose? Because a low tax rate is only appealing to the children here. Low tax means less government funding, which means shit cops and a high crime rate. It also means we need to pay for own healthcare and legal fees. And with no tax payments going to the lawyers, their price will go up heavily. The mature and well minded ones of this game understand that high taxes are needed, it's what they are used for that matters.

You don't need to, but the idea isn't socialism. You don't see our motives, just affiliate yourself with another party but the ugly truth is that every other party is about as transparent as a prison wall.

Hopefully 3 month ban

DELETED

I hope you'll have some variety. Ripped jeans, worn leather jackets, some nice boots. Maybe some fashionable suits. Just saying. Like the idea though.

I love how your sig says 'we love beating criminals for fun' hmmm i somewhat think that wont happen. Itll either get you banned or just shot by every criminal in the game.

Mopara is better nerd.

I like Mopara, it sounds like Paradise and ship name! Paratus ♥ Motown
