    That's your opinion, sure, and for some people that's true, however; the majority of people we interacted with thoroughly enjoyed roleplaying with the LSFD. We had multiple people who requested LSFD purely for the purpose of developmental roleplay for their characters, regardless of if they had scripted damage or not. While medical roleplay is not for everyone, you can't just skip a medical scene when you're injured simply because it's not your cup of tea. Being shot and robbed by thugs and gangsters isn't a firefighter or police officer's cup of tea, but they still go through those scenarios at times.

     

    It's not a one for all kind of server, it's a give and take of simulated realism. Life comes with good and bad times, and while I wouldn't want to be involved in something that led to me being in the care of EMS / Firefighters, it does happen. It's part of life. People like to criticize that which they don't understand, but you can't have civilians without first responders or the server would be pure anarchy and chaos. It's all about balance. Medical and firefighting doesn't have to be someone's favorite topic, but that shouldn't mean our faction members don't get to roleplay at all just because their chosen area of roleplay isn't liked by some people.

     

    The only times in over two years of being in LSFD I saw people unwilling to roleplay with us, was if they were salty over being dropped by a rival gang or LEOs. Most other people were very polite, and thanked us for the roleplay afterwards. It's not just about putting out fires and driving people to the hospital. We've had cases of shock, suicide attempts, and even panic or asthma attacks that required medical assistance. We weren't always there to patch bullet holes.

     

    As I said, it's a balance. We can't force civilian roleplayers to get injured in unique ways, so the majority of our handled calls are gunshot wounds, or stab wounds, with the occasional MVA we get to handle. We're there to provide pre-hospital care and fire rescue services. Without civilians to rescue, we're redundant. For as long as there are civilian roleplayers, that's as long as first responder factions will be needed.

    I didn't mean that people don't want to interact with LSFD law, because that's not true. Back in the days of SA-MP I had fun playing with you guys. My point was that most players are not interested in LSFD from the inside - only a small portion of players is into playing as a firefighter etc.
