I'm a bit bias on this because I really love the gun but it does have its drawbacks. For instance you can't use it in checkpoints and such unless you risk killing friendlies and it does not have great range. However once you know how to use it, it can be accurate up to 300 meters. The AA12 HE is only an effective weapon it towns and close quarter because of its short range so an easy way to combat it is by useing a rifle and snipeing or something like that. I personally have never used it to kill bank robbers while they are still in the bank to avoid collateral. On this point I also avoid using it when I am inside buildings in general to avoid colatoral So basically this weapon it only good when in towns and when not in buildings.

+1 there really should be a rule on this.

I have started to notice that lots of people have over 100mill or more in their account and there has not been a stat reset in the entire time I have played on TLX (almost 4 months) and I know that there will be a stat reset when the update comes out but as we don't know how long that will take I would like to have a server wide stat reset now and if needed we can have another stat reset when the update is released. It has just been way to long since the last stat wipe and at this point the new players can't keep up and enjoy the game as well because there are a bunch of people who have been playing for a while with maxed accounts. I vote that we have a stat wipe now in order to give new players a chance to catch up with the rest of the server.

Um.... no...

I personally don't like the idea of fortnightly stat resets but once or twice a month might work.

-1 for much of the same reasons allready stated. I don't think it would do all that much to improve RP and it would make it much harder for new players to get used to the server. Overall I believe that the cons would outweigh the pros.

+1 it would be helpful to split them up

I have tried switching civ slots and it does not work. the only thing I have found that works is completely logging off the server then rejoining.

The last few times I did not own a even a single zone. and even after I captured some zones I was still not receiving paychecks.

So I have had this happen dozens of time now and I have determined that it happens EVERY time I CREATE a gang. After a few minutes I simply stop getting paychecks.

You have done a great job with this server and this community. I want to thank you for all the time, effort, and money you have invested so that the rest of us can enjoy playing on TLX. I will miss you greatly and I wish you the best of luck

I have been seeing it more and more but it is really only a few blufor you have the habit of doing this. I just want a rule on this to stop it from getting more popular.

Please add a rule that Blufor must impound vehicles not blow them up. If it is a CIVILIAN vehicle I believe that Blufor should not be blowing them up unless for instance it is a terrorist vehicle that is armored or armed. It is honestly idiotic for blufor to be blowing up vehicles after they arrest and or kill a civilians.

Unknown has been putting in a lot of time and effort to improve the server and has been setting a great example. He has been monitoring all posts and has made a TON of great changes for the server. For instance he has been working to create a handbook for staff so that punishments for rule breaking will always be the same for every person depending on how many times they have broken the rule and what rules they broke.

-1 From my experience, if you wish to help the server as a member of the staff team you will need an accurate understanding of the community and how it works. As it is right now I believe that you do not have enough playtime or involvement with the community to have the understanding that is required to be a working member of the staff team. An understanding of the community is important because with it you can understand how certain people interact with each other and through that be able to infer what is actually happening in whatever case you are dealing with. Each RP server has its own unique community that runs by its own set of rules. Experience in RP alone is not enough to be able to work for ANY RP server. Because each community is unique, you must take the time to learn how the community works, not just how RP works. With more time spent on the server you can also get an accurate sense of the rules and how they are implemented and find out the best ways to enforce those rules. Without spending time on the server to find out these types of things I do not believe you would be a good candidate for a staff position. If you believe that you do have enough time on the server to understand these then please private message me and I will reconsider my opinion on your application.

Yea I went there a few weeks ago and went to all the NPCs and shops to try to buy a passport but it only sells drivers licenses. The building that is suppose to sell them is the one next to the bank but that does not sell passports eather.

+1 having an official embassy in the south for blufor and one in the north for opfor would enable a lot more rp opportunities. If we have rules similar to the real world embassies it would enable peace talks and over all better role play between the factions. I would recommend there to be buildings added to the map file to be official 24/7 embassies. Blufor would not be allowed to enter the opfor embassy without perms from opfor and vise versa. the factions would only me able to have unarmored and unarmed vehicles in their embassies but to make up for the lack of vehicle defenses the embassies would have building defenses ie sandbag walls and some easily defensible buildings. the building would need to be permanent additions to the map file so that it would be known where the embassies are. I would also recommend adding a shop that sells barricades and other items to help in defense.

Do you know about what time of day it was so we can check the logs?

The fact that is is just a bit annoying is the reason why we don't have all civs declareing terror 24/7 if we removed that annoyance than all we would have is a bunch of civilian terrorists fighting blufor all the time. You saying that there is no RP is false. People always complain that there is no RP on the server but half the reason is because so many people just want to play indie or declare terror. The other reason that people believe there is not much RP is because very few people actually try to RP. Personally I enjoy RP so I do my best to increas it for instance when anyone tries to rob me or when a blufor tries to pull me over I comply because even if I do lose some money from it I still get the enjoyment of the RP. If we allow all the civs to easily declare terror it would make it even harder to RP in those ways. That is why I believe that this would ruin RP on the server.

-1 If civilians could declare terror every time they respawn we would have a ton o terrorists all at once and that would ruin ALL rp on the server. how it is now the time it takes to drive to terror and back helps regulate the amount of terrorists on the server. If you wanted to implement this then there would have to be a limit on how many people can declare terror and by the time you do that we would basically be making another indep faction.

I didn't even know they made any money...

So recently I have started to notice that there is not really much role play on the server. It seems to me that when playing as blufor all the cops can really do is try to stave off the indeps constantly sniping them in Rasmond causing them to not be able to actually role play with the civilians. There is so much trouble with Blufor and Opfor never being able to do anything but fight indeps that it is causing the server to turn into more of just a run of the mill milsim server that has random civs suicide bombing every so often. I have lots of fun fighting the indeps and find it enjoyable but it seems to be ruining the role play of the server which is also one of my faverate parts. I don't want anyone to misunderstand because I really do love the server, players, and staff I just wanted to point out something that has been bothering me for the past few days. My hope is that when the Arma 3 server comes out is there will be more opportunities to role play and I will be able to keep playing with the same people as on the arma 2 server. (side note but even when the arma 3 server comes out I still plan to play on the original as much as possible.)

Honestly I love using AI but they are overpowered. The one thing I would suggest is that they are made wartime only. They can make wars more fun since you wont need 2 people to every vehicle. With the AI in wars we can have more vehicle which means larger conflicts.

One point made in this topic is that rockets should only be used on armored vehicles. I would like to make a post dedicated to this topic but since it is allready posted here I would like to voice my opinion of the matter. I believe that rockets should ONLY be used on armored and armed vehicles. There is no need to use rockets on unarmored vehicle and especially civilians that are in no vehicle at all. I believe indeps are the only ones who should be allowed to use rockets on whatever they want because they don't have laws or politics that they need to work around. However Blufor/NATO is a peace keeping organization that would have international politics and humane guidelines to stick to. For example, If NATO uses rockets to blow up criminals such as bank robbers the international effects would be extreamily political and I believe that NATO would face serious reprucutions. For opfor I don't know about real world examples especially since they are supposed to be corrupt but at the very least it would still harm Russia's relations with the rest of the world.

If you don't have a mic you can still type to the staff members in the support room on ts. You should not have any trouble going to a ts room to get help with your issues.
