Short advise is;

Be the change you want to see.

Corny, but it is quite how it is.

Plain drama is a tango for two, and if you refuse dancing, there will be no tango.

“I think that lately that there is a lot of tension and there are some things in my mind that have exacerbated situations</p>
I dislike how procedural things have become with HPD. It seems like the way that it works now is that cops just capture and jail. The brutality and the deterrents that are supposed to be the signature of the biggest gang in…[Read more]

We can, it even is common courtesy to get statement and so on, yet still we need to accept the fact that it will happen, especially with certain parties — Reason for this (personal observation) is that CD is very focused on cops – robbers types of interactions, which often leaves the victims to their own devises. I’ve also noticed that…[Read more]

You will receive notification from system about whom the case is assigned to. If you missed it, any cop can look it up for you — You can inquire IC or OOC.

It is advisable that you poke the detective assigned to case, if you do not hear anything. Players come and go, so unfortunately this is something that does happen.

That being said, victims…[Read more]

Officer Ralph Porkins of HPD.

Veteran officer. He’s seen many cops come and go.

He is bald and overweight, has mean beady eyes but let’s not bully him about it. Depending his day, he can be quite inept, but along the years, he’s also proven himself being quite good crime scene investigator, and effective as officer on occasion.

He has high…[Read more]

Generally, if it’s an attachment such as bicycle, skateboard, etc that blends into setting, (wearable animal attachments excluded) and it won’t eat much simulators resources, you don’t need permit for it.

I’m able to help out with armed officer problem of yours, send me message inworld when you’re online.

Handled.

Seems that offline invites still fail at SL, should someone else experience similar problem, reach out to me inworld.

Outside chat range is absolutely minimum, however there needs to be enough distance created so casual observers cannot assume/mistake youth character being part of anything they shouldn’t be a part of. Sometimes this means leaving the building as well.

Case related issue has been solved with OP.

Hey there,

Whenever there’s report (or citation) filed with your name in it, be it suspect, victim or witness, you’ll get cred for that, regardless whether there’s been follow up on the case or no. I saw this rape case mentioned above, and while it seemed well written, there was no suspects name defined in it, which makes following it up rather…[Read more]

If character is unable to control his/her actions, for example like sudden urge to shoot random passerby’s into noggin kicking in on regular basis, simplest – and most logical solution is for said character not to carry his/her gun with them everywhere. Just because you don’t end up in death row in Hathian, doesn’t mean one can’t act like such…[Read more]

Technically, there’s no such thing as resistance to taser, which utilizes electrical current to mess up it’s targets nervous system, causing targets muscles to spasm uncontrollably. It is like controlled electric shock, which makes it not entirely fool proof, yet very effective weapon against unarmored targets, even those who are highly trained…[Read more]

I see Tim already answered, but I’ll offer my own HPD perspective as well, since I already typed it…

At HPD, not too long ago, we’ve already tried this kind of thing in small scale, by allowing people to join PD’s ranks as CO’s. As one probably already can guess, it didn’t worked out. There was one (1) player interested in this role during…[Read more]

It means that “unofficial” discord server is player created/moderated/run, instead of CD’s staff.

That it was, indeed. Excellent hint to follow, this is yet another reason why Hathian needs these ‘landmarks’.

Everyone’s of course free to play their character as they see fit, just like people they’re playing with are free to play their characters as they see fit. At times this leads into impasse, where neither character gives in, so ongoing plot isn’t possible to develop without either player having to break their character, is what I’m saying.

I’m…[Read more]

To my experience, 9 out of 10 people, regardless of the situation do not “fold” or back down/give up under *any kind* of pressure from police, which in turn makes establishing those corrupt connections with criminals rather difficult task, when there’s no IC way to persuade/coerce/trick anyone to become, say, informant, etc. I’m sure this is fami…[Read more]
