This isn't talked about nearly enough. It's high time to stop pretending that spouting such nonsense as "you're expected to realistically portray the LASD/LAPD" is conducive to good roleplay, or that simply integrating real-life codes and procedures is a gateway to unlocking the secrets of police portrayal, or that pasting actual slogans over in-game mappings is all you need to achieve your best performance as a pixel cop, because nothing could be further from the truth. If the only defining trait of your character is acing 100% of the LASD/LAPD lingo while jumping from shootout to pursuit to tactical deployment, then you're not much better than any other virtual gangbanger who uses gang roleplay and AAVE as a paper-thin disguise to engage in server-sanctioned DM without any consequence. Law enforcement roleplay somehow managed to pull a complete 360 and move from robocops whose only aim was to rack up as many arrests as possible while only engaging in action-packed scenarios, to a somewhat engaging and balanced level of police portrayal, right back to robocops whose only aim is to fill their sentences with as many LASD/LAPD terms as possible while only engaging in action-packed scenarios. It's just a long string of disjointed episodes without anything holding the whole thing together, and how could it be otherwise? Hardly anyone takes their time to do some station roleplay or get to know other characters beyond a cursory introduction, debriefs after situations are done just because it's "real life procedures" and not out of a genuine interest of interacting with fellow faction members, good luck finding anyone above a first-line supervisory rank to discuss important matters because it's not "realistic" for commanders to be in-game and expect to be called out over faction chat if you don't use the right code or just say it in plain English instead of getting your message across in numbers. While it's true that law enforcement factions receive a large amount of calls and can't possibly handle them all, it's also true that almost zero attention is given to anything else beyond the run and gun. Investigative roleplay is in shambles, held up by maybe five or six people in total. Patrol work is more shallow than it was in 2014 because even though the characters use more accurate terminology, they're nowhere near as interesting or have as much of a personality as they used to 10 years ago. Passive police roleplay is basically unheard of. And there's still people who somehow feel it's appropriate to use the "it's not about policing the server" motto. And it's absolutely not a problem limited to this server only, regardless of how popular others might be on other platforms. The law enforcement roleplay scene these days can be summed up as people playing LSPDFR in multiplayer.

I have a very vivid memory of a situation where myself and another cop that were partnered pulled up to the Willowfield Cluckin bell and RP'd order food when the local gang rolled up into the parking lot and started talking shit and harassing us. Instead of escalating the scene and calling for backup, my partner at the time hopped out and squared up with their OG. My partner proceeded to beat the brakes off this gang RPer and then the gang let us go our separate way with the bragging rights. That is by far one of those memories from back in the day that lives in my head rent free. @Wildcat

Not going over the problems mentioned above although wanted to add my two cents about the current situation. SA-MP is great not because of the player base. Even though others can't see your customized skin but you just can't replicate the SA-MP vibe. Playing SA-MP in 2024 feels different in a good way. I think SA-MP is way better time investment than GTA V, though it can get boring and unmotivating to play. I think quality roleplay needs to be enforced by the management. What I mean is players that investing the time should be rewarded and you just can't leave the roleplay untouched OOCly because we get what we get. People that are serious are keeping this alive. I understand - it should not become an elite-only server though factions that are fostering a quality narrative should get support. Trolling gets boring after a week or so? Sure there always will be someone who does not give a fuck. Roleplay quality of a server is more of a management's job. I know it's important to have taxis at the airport spawn and it should feel like Los Angeles, California - though does it?? ✌️

For the Tropic: There are several modifications around that allow users to enter the interior of the boat, allowing more access to roleplaying opportunities for those wishing to create a faction around the fishing job *I'm currently working on the interior on the Tropic, for RP related content. At the moment the mod in which you can enter the Tropic need some HD textures and a removal of a certain doll laying on the bed. @NBGWavii I have the same question indeed: Does a bigger boat hold more fish. cause the Reefer is more of a fishingboat then anything else.
