    #1 Blufor might be police but they are a military force, this is a 3rd world country, not a 1st world country. The taser have a max range of 100m with M1014, no chance of getting close especially if their is a sniper watching you.

    #2 seriously? How stupid can you get? They have KOSed a couple of cops, have a warrant on their head for the murder and will shoot on-sight, of course you can & should, their is no RP with someone who just wants to death match.

    #3 Blufor’s lack of communication is a big hinderance here, expecting them to work together is like telling the indies to work together. You can’t taj damage in donator, but vehicles can, I have seen multiple account of it happening. The “freedom” you speak of is a No-Mans land, as soon as you are out of safe zone, you can be targeted by everything from a BRDM-2 ATGM to a ZU-23 to a sniper, it’s not free, it’s a kill zone. Martial law and armour won’t do much good because as soon as they are out, everything will focus on the armour, prioritising targets. As for joint Ops, I think most of Opfor command refuse to help blufor due to their idiocy and the dick behaviour exhibited by some of the members.

     

    firstly using smoke grenades and stun grenades will allow you to close the gap and go in for the taze, if there's a sniper then hes obviously a threat and you can terminate the threat as for the guy at the bank you can deal with it accordingly. Secondly as a police officer you generally shouldn't use a force above that of the individual you are in contact with like I said, if you've lost visual then you cant ascertain that its the same individual you first came into contact with and should deal with that appropriately.

    and finally Independents always work together when im on so you obviously have a skewed view of the faction and the people that play. Moreover you dont need armor to leave or deal with a safezone camp, if they have a 360 view of the place you need to focus fire on one contact and deal with it one at a time it requires teamwork and if you think blufor is entirely filled with bad players then you need to re evaluate yourself because I believe everyone has the potential to be a good player. the game aint hard just understand the mechanics of the game thats all there is to it. also the safezone is not only a 2D box you can very well take a heli to like 1500m above the safezone while still in the safezone then nose dive and fly away before they can figure out if you've left yet.

    Also maybe Opfor doesnt want to help you because of an attitude towards your friends like that

    The people on this server seem to whine about every little thing, whine when you give warnings then shoot them down,

    Your first statement is an over generalization of the entire TLX community and for that you should be ashamed of yourself.

    also unless you have a valid reason for wanting a plane or helicopter to land like a terror threat or a war or something then its just a dick move to give a rapid warning then lighting up a flying vehicle (whether against the rules or not its still a dick move).

    There robbing the bank but i should not shoot them i need to  use a taser instead

    Yeah, you're a cop unless they shot at you or another civlians life is in direct danger why would you not use a taser? if you value human life so little that you'd rather shoot an armed suspect than try and de escalate and create a rich RP scenario then you should not be playing Blufor.

    Oh you killed 6 cops and when you are killed you complained that it was unfair and did not use beanbag shot come on I am getting ticked that because you did not do things their way that its bad and you should call an admin.

    I dont even know how to refute this statement its not even english. and if they kill 6 cops infront of you then yeah you can kill them but if they're wanted for a cop(s) murder it doesnt give you the right to light them up. sure you can take precautionary measures like calling for backup and keeping your distance but you almost never have the right to KOS any civilian unless you yourself have witnessed an act of violence by that player towards another.

    I can not even play blufore when there is only 2 other cops the bank gets robbed every second and indeps are shooting into donator or camping spam its just drains the life out of this game and the last good takistan server on arma2.

    if there are few blufor on consider working together to stop the bank robberies. its not hard. be creative. as for indeps shooting into donator i mean you cant take damage while in donator sooo your statement is false there. and camping blufor base? seriously? you have 360 degrees of freedom around the base from which you can leave the area safely and covertly. if theres an armor threat call martial law or even better theres a special thing called joint ops where the south can help you out.


  3. +1 server does need an admin for when EST are asleep. 

    +1 Well rounded individual

    +1 I did construction back in the day (backend shift management and accounting) Can confirm its a bitch of a job but it takes a solid mind to do it.

    -1 "how to better control my temper when dealing to them when the need arises."   usually coming forward and mentioning that you can now 'control' your temper means you've had temper issues in the past now im a man of not letting your past define you however sometimes the individuals ability to think they can do something is far often greater than their actual ability to do something.

    Overall +2 Definitely a candidate worth TLX time and energy. have played with him a few times will most certainly out perform most of the staff currently on the server in either management or gameplay. No offence :D

  4. having the server disconnect you before restart can cause a whole host of issues regarding player data, please disconnect prior to the server closing to avoid this problem.


  5. Never personally spoken with you however judging by the work you have put into the server and dedication over the past three years I can quite confidently say that whatever your future holds it will be met with great success and I wish you the best of luck.

    that already happens. a civ in a cop car is still not kos to indi only blufor

    right but if you kill a civ in a stolen cop car during a war as opfor is sure as hell isnt the opfors fault just doesnt make sense. its a case of wrong place wrong time for the civ


  7. i think there should be a delay of atleast 30 minutes between bank robberies which would give the incentive of trying to get the job done right rather than spamming the bank over and over again as for other factions not allowed over the border it can be very taxing

  8. -1 stealing a cop car should make you KOS as any other faction if civs can roll around in stolen cop cars it can lead to a lot of other issues. lets say theres an indep trying to kill cops right. well if he sees a cop car but it turns out to be a civ inside it and hes unarmed well then the civ is gunna go on ts and take up the time of the mods and admins aswell as the time of the indie.

  9. while the Idea on paper makes sense, firstly it would be quite hard if not impossible to implement because spawning is based off of way points set in the map and scripting in a moving waypoint and then attaching that to a player driven vehicle could be quite taxing on the server especially if there are a few vehicles out there. while I agree with the idea of having non combative vehicles having a reduced price I think your idea of mobile spawn points just isn't feasible and even if it was could result in a whole host of issues.


  10. you can remove names and distance to target by increasing server difficulty, however name-checking is still a thing with some visual texture mods for the game so i think simply having a rule against name checking would pretty much iron out any issues regarding it

    • How long have you been a TLX player?
      April 23rd 2018  5700 minutes on TLX // Although short on this specific server I have been a part of role play communities since 2015
    • Do you meet the minimum requirements set above?
      Yes
    • Have you previously been banned from the server?
      No
    • Have you previously been a staff member here?
      No
    • Describe yourself
      I am an outgoing driven individual who is about as brutally honest as it gets, i don't take shit from anyone nor do I plan on it. That being said those who are honest and straight-forward with me know that I don't mess around. I frequently get large groups of people to coordinate during times of disarray and make a habit out of creating rich RP scenarios whether it be on Civilian, Opfor, Blufor or Predominantly Independent. I am a Graduate from McGill University with a Bachelors degree in Economics with a minor in Law.
    • Why should you be a staff member?
      I should be a staff member because I am dedicated to my craft and I believe I could be a valuable asset both in-game and in development of future projects/updates TLX might want to push forward. I try to stay as unbiased as possible, am always open to critical thought I am also good at giving feedback regarding more technical issues given my education background.
    • What qualifications or experience do you have to offer? (if any)
      I have over 1700 hours in Arma 2 mostly spent on various Military Sims as a Helicopter Pilot, Sniper, and tank crewman. however most of my hours comes from playing on RISE where I kick-started a subdivision of OPFOR called OSF. Myself and a few others had created this unit in order to balance out both factions and through our meticulous scrutiny we made a fair and balanced system that benefited the server quite well. As well I have a small but significant background in editing experience in Arma 2 Where I use to create custom Role play missions for the aforementioned Military Sim's I was a part of.
