Jail - Community Feedback Absent replied in News and Announcements
The difference between the old jail and the new one is that nowadays criminals have to hold two corridors which simply requires more people to do so. In the past, one man could initiate a jailbreak on his own and even hold it for some time, because there was only one way the cops could reach him ( 1 corridor). During that time, other people could join and help him and basically that's how big jailbreaks were organized. With the new jail it's impossible to hold two corridors on your own, so you get jailed quickly and the jailbreak fails. That's how I see the things and the solution could be - either only one corridor to exist or the two corridors to be connected to one.

GM Questionnaire: Why are you not a cop? Absent replied in Questions and Suggestions Archive
I've been a cop for a lot of time and I used to enjoy it, because it always brought you a challenge how to handle more than one criminal at once since we all know that cops have always been outnumbered. That situation hasn't really changed much, however, it has been made really easy for cops to arrest people, which I dislike. Not only that, but the police community itself has changed a lot. The squads have never really worked together, there has always been this rivalry between all of them, while gangs always do stuff together even if they are enemies in turfs. In the criminal community you are a friend of everyone, while in the squad community you are a rival of everyone. That's how I see it.
Another problem is that the RP is gone. In my opinion, the people who are in squads enjoy more RPing than those in gangs, who enjoy more " DMing ". Since RP is kind of gone in the server, it brings less joy being a cop. Homeland Security, the best group back in the days, has turned into a squad with armor that spawn for BRs. That's probably one of the biggest dissapointments for myself.
About the favourism thing which Teddy mentioned, it's probably true nowadays. But I personally haven't seen anyone saying " join us and we offer you this and that ", althought I have heard rumours, yeah. I cannot deny the fact that there is favourism everywhere, not only in cop side.
Desert Eagles as a group is another topic and I don't really think it should be discussed since DE has never been CLO and CLO has never been DE. You cannot compare two different groups with different politics. DE has always depended on CLO and has always been more focused on RPing. CLO on the other hand has more freedom, that's true, and they are more involved with the community. That doesn't mean that DE cannot be involved with the community, as well. I believe, the whole problem comes again from the fact that cop side players are rivals, as I've already said, and they are simply not working together. DE has always been allowed to respond upon any SAPD request. That means a simple " We need DE assistance somewhere " in the radio - DE can respond, but people are just not used to that. The other issue is the RP, as I've already mentioned. It's no longer an interest to many people in the server.
In conclusion, I switched to criminal side, because the police community is no longer what it used to be, lack of challenge with the new arresting system and because you can be more combat involved when being a criminal ( mainly turfs ).
