Hello All, I have been overlooking some of the rules and have noticed that the Pilot license for Criminals is someone not worth the money, as the current rules for the licenses and use of aircrafts are somewhat not fair for the bad guys i understand this and would like to request a few changes for the criminals giving us a reason to buy a Pilot License. As a leader of a group and a owner of a building. one reason for the building was due to the location and ablity to use all trasport options, for example being able to use a boat from the near by docks and cars from the near by garage. (30Sec Walk for both options.) I would like to be able to park on top of my building as its now classified as private property, Also from exchanges with the police we have had police land on top of the building in the past. Current Rules and Changes Requied. (My Thoughts.) Aircraft Must Be Kept Above 200M - This is a Good Rule and no change is required. Aircraft May Not Be Used Maliciously - This is a Good Rule and no change is required. Aircraft May Not Be Used To Facilitate or assist Criminal Acts. - This Need Reviewing (My Thoughts) - Police Evading (This is something that shouldn't Changed) - Robberies (This is something that shouldn't Changed) - Drug Trafficking (This is something that is fine, simaliar to the Meth Van the police should be able to search and seize) (Trasporting People with Drugs, should also be allowed but pilot can get arrested as being part of Drug Trafficing and if police believe a high amount of drugs have been traded with the use of Aircraft then a Cpl or Higher can remove license.) (Lookout should be allowed as the police can do it so why can't the normal people do it, this currently feels unfair.) -Aircraft May not be landed in populated areas. (Lower Half of the city.)  (This is correct but with groups and gangs getting their own buildings, I believe that we as owners of the land we are landing on we should be able to land if safe to do so and on a large enough roof/floor. giving people more reasons to buy one.) Pilot License Seized - I believe this should be something you can re-obtained like a car license. Unless Reported in a case of Breaking rules ( - Police Evading - Robberies  -Aircraft May not be landed in populated areas.)  ❤️ Love Y'all ❤️ JJ

Freedoms / Rules Personally, I feel like the air rules are too strict. I feel like having the freedom to use it as an escape or use it illegally in some way could work. Planes and Helicopters are really expensive in the run long so you wouldn't see it abused too often. I also feel like instead of revoking the license and yoinking the helicopter or plane they could impound the vehicle with a heavy fee or temporarily revoke your license and give it back once it is over. There could also be an air traffic radar or something that the Police could access that reads all air traffic. They could also make it more skill based and make it so that it only detects at a certain height. I feel like having more freedom with planes and helicopters with only heavy fines/impound fees could open a ton of RP opportunities. Opportunities This is just a suggestion but it would be cool to see cargo or even illegal jobs for planes/helicopters that aren't 12 million dollars. It could really open the lock on air based RP which I personally love and other enjoy. I know scripting and developing is long and hard work but it would be cool to see it in the future.

I'm starting this post to check what is the general view in the server about what's RMD and what is not. I think it's important for the community to debate on it, and the admins to clarify it better. Since Badlands RP is not hardcore RP but I hope it doesn't turn into a shooter game. I'm going to use a few incidents as example to start the debate:. First situation that it's a bit on the edge. Player A is driving around at normal city speed, passes by player B that aims to them and says "Keep moving or I'll shoot" and without giving more than a couple seconds player B shoots player A. I don't have a recording of this but happened just like it's described, and this post is not about what happened is more about clarifying how things are to know the rule better.  Second scene, it has two parts. I was chilling out under the shade of the peach tree in my car, when two players come pull a gun on me and tell me to get away. I simply do, after having situation one a few days ago, don't even stop to talk or try to RP, I just press my keys and move away. Sadly I don't have a video of the peaches gathering because you know... peaches I wasn't expecting that and try to avoid recording hours of peach gathering Since there are no cops online, I simply choose to do the white knight thing. So I go to the peaches place, park on the back and wait. The players show up, one of them is in voice asking if anyone is around, since there is a broken down player car left by the peaches sell point. I'm up on the roof trying to get a decent angle and when I'm good for it, I start the RP. You have the video here:  Wrapping this up. This is not a post about whining or been a sore looser. Hey, I even have to agree that how the second situation could even consider good karma. What this post is about is the rules, making them a bit more clear so we all understand them and we play within them. After all, RP and GTA are games, and like in Poker for a game to be fair all players should know the rules at the start of the game. I understand that some situation sure need to be judged by admins, but I would love more detail on the current rule. I don't like to push the rules, but, like most of the players, don't like to go down just because others push them too far.   So the current rule is:  Possible reads of the situations used as example with the current rule:  Scene 1. - So in the first case, surprised about the aggressive interaction, I guess I didn't step on the gas quick enough. That could count as a valid reason to kill me, I guess ((If the rule works that way don't know how it enhances RP, seems nearly GTAO, in my opinion.)) - Other read is that in fact was a RDM.  (Even not too good RP, I took it as the first option, and moved on. But it matters for how I reacted on the second case.).   Scene 2. There are many possible ways of playing the scene if I focus in the rule as it's written down.  - All was there was some RP and then shots were fired. - Since 9315 was just moving around and never spoke till the shooting happened that one could be called RDM, because the only RP he did was pulling his hands up. And he sure has voice since he spoke after the shooting. - I could have fired on 9315 since he did take some time to pull his hands up. - Or even, since they pulled a gun on me, at the gathering peaches area, I could have just moved away to a safe distance and then just shoot them down, right there. ((Once more, that's not much RP in my opinion...))   I guess there are many other ways the rule could have been understood. My point is that Badlands RP is meant for RP, I know it's not hardcore RP but as GTA works, it's very easy to aim to someone without a gun, swap and fire away. That simply doesn't happen in RL, it takes more time. And RP wise, playing a super trained shooter that draws fast is powergaming, but once again I'm gonna guess that's not considered in the rules.  Personally, I can live with it. I just want to know what is the rule exactly to I can play along that. But truthfully I hope this post starts a debate that helps the RP in the server instead of just creating drama. Â
