I'm not sure if or how this would affect things, but given the recent disapperance (for either IC or OOC reasons unbeknownst to me) of Judges, I think that either -all- TERRA agents or at the very least Marie and a single Agent should be given the ability to levy fines against those they arrest.
Judges lately (it's no secret) have been few and far between. If TERRA agents were given the appropriate knowledge of the Law (a book of Law?) and sentancing guidelines, they could handle a lot of the lower end crimes by themselves.
If a fine did not get paid, or the crime was a serious one, then the Judges obviously would be brough in.
We've had the holding facilities at TERRA pretty full for about a week now. I've called over public SIC, I've SICd WJF-Ops all to no avail.
We all play this game, to have fun. It's not much fun to log in every day and sit in a cell. That's why prison sucks.
In any event, talk it up.
And TERRA wants to fine the people they arrest? Ahuh, sure. And maybe I'm looking at this wrong, but isn't the reason TERRA is on RED and not the WJF is because its not economically feasible for the WJF to go where they're basically walking targets?
The only way for this to work would be for there to be more TERRA agents, but again how many do you want there to be?
I remember a while back when it seemed like every third player char was a judge. �It was just silly considering how lawless and uncontrollable the place is supposed to be.
What I'd really like to see, and I'm more than willing to help do this, is more NLM news reports on exactly how lawless red is. More indepth reports on food shortages and riots. Reports on large scale gang warfare. Car theft rings. Stuff like that. Heck, just regular news reports would be a good start.
While my character may not like all the SIC ads someone is placing I think they're great. Kudos to whoever is doing them.
As to the being in jail thing. That's been adressed several times on the boards. Its not that bad if you've got SIC access or a phone. You are still able to earn UE for all those UE whores out there.
My foot is asleep dammit!
Just so you all can read it again (or for the first time if you're a n00b)

Yes I said MORE TV.
Just fewer commercials and more PC's or NPC's on the TV, reporting, news sports, entertainment.
(PS this was not a shameless plug for someone to get a job)
ANYWAY! Yes Red is lawless, and anybody that would actually "Listen" to a TERRA agent, be there 3 or 3,000 is plan dumb.
TERRA: Hi I'm a rent-a-cop! Stop that at once or I'll call the WJF
You: Ok big bad scarey person, I'm sawie. I'll nevwer do it again....*bit pouty eyes*
For that matter why anybody actually listenes to ANYBODY in authurity is beyond me.
Bad guy1: Shit it's the fuzz.
Bad guy2: There's only 12 of em!
bad guy1: Hrm 12 of 'em 2 of us...how many you think you can take?
Bad guy2: Well I got four rounds left....7?
Bad guy1: Sounds good.
Think theme here people, lawless means just that. Don't take shit from nobody!

But that doesn't mean you can just like...bribe them. Like, come on, they get paid shit!
TERRA: "hey punk, that gun there is illegal."
Punk: "So?"
TERRA: "I'll have to take you in on charges."
Punk: *pays TERRA Agent 1000c*
Punk: "Go away, I have things to do."
TERRA: "Indeed, lovely evening isn't it."
TERRA: *Saunters on down the street*
Oh, and Murphy, congrats.
TERRA: "hey punk, that gun there is illegal."
*BLAM*
Punk: "Still works just as well as a legal one though, huh?" *loots corpse and saunters off down the street*
;)
TERRA: "Hey punk, that gun there is illegal."
Punk: "Really now."
Punk:*draws his gun and attacks*
TERRA: *Disarms and uses said gun to kill Punk*
TERRA: "Yeah, it is..."
TERRA:*loots corpse and saunters off down the street*
Maybe it's just me.
Lol, sorry Dom. :( I just had to point that out, like the bitch that I am. *hugs*
Remember, though... we are all actually Johnny, who is pretending to be Damon, who is really Johnny!!!
Who is the founder of that school of thought?
I like it! I have often felt that I might be Johnny at heart, pretending to be Damon, who is actually Johnny.
Anyone else ever get this feeling?
Sindome's Bill Cosby. He had his name changed to something else, though.
i think i could get used to the whole demi-god thing, really i could... at least if people would only start making sacrefices to me on some sort of hand carved alter with pretty fire and flames... much flames would be apprecieted.
please and thankyou.
and jello's bettah then puddin!
You're stupid! You're ugly! Your idea is stupid! Burn in Hell!
Haha! Get it? Flame? Flame? Like, flam...nevermind. I swear I thought it was funny.
What the hell was the point of my posting this anyway?... oh yeah, it's mainly because I don't like the fact that Lotus could get ahead of me in number of posts.
J/K
But it's obviously useless.
