tay Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 So I know this isn't a new idea and probably one that has been talked about. However I think it would be great for members for the Police Department when on duty to carry either their Badge or a PD ID as an accessible/giveable item in their inventory.  Although I know there won't be a massive amount of use for it, I think that it can be useful when in certain RP situations. For example, an undercover officer is talking to a civilian who is doubting he is in fact an officer, the UC officer can then provide his or her badge/ID or when someone is unhappy with how an officer has handled a situation and would like to know the officers details in order to report to PD Senior Staff.  I think it would allow for a bit more RP during certain scenarios and hell even crims could potentially 'collect' the badges as trophies to flaunt among eachother. Would like to know others opinions on this! Again, I know this isn't necessary and you may find it completely useless, however I think it could be a nice small addition 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan Posted January 2, 2021 Report Share Posted January 2, 2021 Thats something that the PD already has, if you look under wallet when clocked into PD, theres a business card, use that and it will show your PD card which has your name and rank as well as a PD variant of the state ID card  1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norton Posted January 3, 2021 Report Share Posted January 3, 2021 Honestly, where I like that we have the "show business card" I'd love to have a physical badge that we hold that gives our name opposed to doing it that way. It would make it seem more authentic and real. Just a thought. ¯\_(ã)_/¯ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Posted January 4, 2021 Report Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) I feel this will quickly turn into crims trying to collect police badges, the business card seems fine to me. Idk if all do, but a lot of cops ive met have their own business card IRL. Just my thought. Edited January 4, 2021 by Coach 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew King Posted January 5, 2021 Report Share Posted January 5, 2021 While I do agree with @Coach, I do feel moving on with 2.0 and being less restrictive with stuff, with respect to abuse control / balancing should stand out. I feel that we can push forward with Police Badges and if it becomes something that does end up as a collection factor then either regulate it or penalize the people who do it with no real RP Reason behind it. We need to stop penalizing all for a few. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kota Posted January 5, 2021 Report Share Posted January 5, 2021 Cops do have business cards like Coach said. And as a crim I would play collect them all with the badges not even gonna lie. With the current War on LSPD the Lost has.  So take that as you will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizz Posted January 5, 2021 Report Share Posted January 5, 2021 I think the overall idea is to have it as a separate item, which I'm totally down for. Will bring it up. Will be interesting once we have player to player searching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
