    Please do not change anything having to do with the academy.

     

    Arguably the best part is the beginning.

     

    I have the same opinion regarding academies. Sadly, I'm not part of the Training Bureau, but as far as I know the academy will stay the same way it was on SAMP.

     

    We're also striving to expand the academy with some other courses to provide a more immersive and eventful experience for our upcoming colleagues.

    My opinion is that the in-game academy is a necessary process that every recruit should go through. Mainly under a group environment with other recruits and Training Bureau personnel.

     

    Settling in is a very important step into joining the Sheriff's Department. I'm thinking that it's way better to make a recruit feel comfortable and get a better grasp of their actions on the field by doing Custody and Patrol school roleplay, instead of removing the whole academy and throw them on the street where they have to do Field Training Patrols with FTOs (Field Training Officers) that take it seriously and don't allow many mistakes, ultimately leading to a bad interaction with the trainee and leaving them anxious and scared of the future DORs (Daily Observational Patrol).

     

    Leaving some room for recruits to experience some fun roleplay during the classes and during custody would settle them the best and make a prime deputy out of them.

     

    Some find the academy classes where you go over the manuals lenghty and boring, but contrary to that, the Training Bureau gets valuable information. Example would be whether the recruit receives information well, how they behave, their roleplay quality and engagement. That being said, stay active even during classes, the /me's and chats are being tracked and you will be graded internally and eventually booted out if you don't meet the requirements.

     

    We've had the academies and the Training Bureau for the longest time and it's one of the key aspects in our faction. I wouldn't never consider a removal.

    Usage of real life internet/media content

    a bold statement considering the main people who roleplayed around real life media were street gang rpers. Also, those gangs from the 80's and 90's never stopped existing so I'm not sure why that's even valid as part of the conversation. I've been part of countless factions where its members referenced real life memes/movies/events etc and even posted said memes on IC social media, along with memes that were made completely IC'ly about IC shit. Another thing worth noting is that your average teenager that's part of a gang doesn't care as much about memes and shitposting as some random white teen from the suburbs would be. Nor do they particularly care about the latest movies, elections, actors, video games etc, they care more about the world and culture that they're part of, the gang culture.

     

    Using real life news articles in general can be tricky, especially among gang roleplay. some news articles might state that certain gangs do certain things that those roleplaying said gangs might not want to take part in ICly or even acknowledge that that organization does those type of things simply so they dont have to roleplay it (shit like child trafficking, pedophilia, rape etc), or said articles might reference california which shouldn't be done imo.

     

    I agree. I've never been involved in much illegal roleplay.

    I created the topic as I was curious whether people talked about media and the internet stuff that happend that day. I've always felt as if people completely ignored it. Or it might be the fact that I haven't been involved with people who roleplayed that and I simply missed those interactions. 

    I probably stated some things that were off, hence that I never got in touch with those things, but had a different picture in my head. Sorry if that "offended" you. Thanks for your input.
