OneState RP Police Guidelines
OneState RP Police Guidelines
Repeat violations in OneState's hospital area, especially regarding vehicle offenses like VDM and excessive speed, have severe repercussions. After using a jail card to exit detention, a repeat VDM offense in this area results in a 48-hour ban, reflecting the strict enforcement of rules to protect player safety and maintain order. Repeated ramming incidents or excessive speeds incur penalties of 50 or 45 minutes in jail, deterring disruptive behaviors and underscoring the area's safety .
English communication is mandatory during interactions with police and army, gatherings of more than five players, and within green zones, police departments, and army bases. Non-compliance results in a mute for 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes, based on the severity of the infraction. This rule standardizes communication to prevent misunderstandings and ensure clear interactions in critical areas or situations .
The prohibition of weapons in OneState's green zones is designed to ensure these areas remain safe and non-threatening to all players. By enforcing RP4 & RP6 punishments—amounting to a 45-minute jail sentence for violations—this rule reduces potential conflicts and encourages peaceful interactions. The policy fosters an environment conducive to safe and structured role-play, which aligns with the green zone's purpose of being a non-combat safe haven, thereby improving overall game-play experience .
The arrest procedure in OneState involves several steps to ensure compliance and avoid disputes. First, if conducting a SEARCH FOR WANTED activity, make a screenshot of the people with violations. During a role-play (RP) arrest, also screenshot or video the violation. Handcuff the person and inform them of your in-game nickname, e.g., 'My name is John Snow, I'm a OneState policeman.' Then, tell the person the reason for the arrest and ensure they see it in the chat or hear it. Read them their rights and ensure they understand the arrest reason. Finally, escort them to jail and document the arrest reason in the chat with a screenshot. This comprehensive procedure protects officers from accusations of unwarranted arrests .
In OneState's green zones, vehicle-related activities are strictly regulated to maintain a safe environment. VDM (Vehicle Deathmatch) is forbidden, resulting in RP9 & RP11 punishments amounting to 200 minutes in jail. Repeated VDM near hospital areas after using a jail card leads to a 48-hour ban. Abusing vehicle horns results in RP4, a 15-minute jail sentence. Ramming into cars results in RP2 & RP11, totaling 50 minutes in jail. Excessive speed near the hospital area leads to RP4 & RP6, resulting in a 45-minute jail time. Prohibiting weapons in these zones, with violations punished by RP4 & RP6, demonstrates the emphasis on non-disruptive player behavior .
Police officers in OneState who arrest someone without stating the reason receive one warning. Similarly, lacking screenshot evidence of an arrest also results in one warning. Accumulating two warnings results in one reprimand, and three reprimands lead to dismissal from the police faction. This system ensures accountability and adherence to role-play principles .
OneState enforces accountability and role-play quality among police officers through a comprehensive system of warnings, reprimands, and dismissal. False allegations, unfounded detentions, and unprovoked attacks can lead to dismissal and legal consequences. Misuse of language, failure to warn before using force, and disrespect towards others result in reprimands, emphasizing role-play standards. Non-compliance with orders, using personal vehicles, and failing arrest procedures accrue warnings, with two warnings equating to a reprimand. This structured approach promotes fairness and adherence to role-play principles .
Violations in OneState are categorized into three types: Criminal, Civil, and Administrative Violations. Criminal Violations, such as capture of state institutions or murder, lead to 20 minutes in jail. Civil Violations, like damage to state property or insults, result in 10 minutes in jail. Administrative Violations, including resisting arrest or traffic offenses, incur 5 minutes in jail. These categories ensure differentiated penalties based on the severity of the offense .
Documentation plays a crucial role in OneState's arrest procedures by serving as evidence to justify police actions and prevent misunderstandings or disputes. Officers are instructed to take screenshots of violations or the SEARCH FOR WANTED list, ensuring they have evidence to validate arrests. This practice protects officers against accusations of false or unwarranted arrests, supports transparency, and encourages adherence to role-play standards, ultimately maintaining integrity and trust in law enforcement activities .
In OneState, police officers face a reprimand if they use weapons or force without first issuing a warning, such as stating 'Sir, if you don’t stop, I will use a taser.' This policy enforces necessary communication before taking aggressive action, aligning with role-play principles to ensure fairness and transparency in policing .
