I have to agreed to this, the amount of times i have heard of bad trades and stuff is kinda bad.

The best way for this to work is if the police had at least mod power.

I could see having to pay fines if you park your ship in the wrong spot. 😉

Flame, you think mods are responsible for patrolling and keeping track of which players make stupid trades? Besides the fact that they were once players too, and still want to play the game the way they want to play it, they have to deal with so much other garbage. If you throw into the mix them overseeing trades this would be ridiculous. That is not their job. Not to mention that raiding and screwing people over is part of the game. It happens all the time. Players shouldn’t trade with people they don’t trust end of story.

Does it stick to the theme of the server though…. police?

Otagowill, I vote you take the title of Chief of Police. Start patrolling and let me know how that works out for you.

@_BurningEyes_ jeez why so pessimistic? He had an idea so he announced it to see if anyone would like to join and to get the publics opinion.

You never know, maybe someone powerful reading this post would think ‘yea, I think this is a good idea’ and join. And nearly everyone has made an announcement before releasing their crew, so how is this any different?

At least give him a chance and if his police enforcement crew ends up failing then you can say  ‘I told you so’ or whatever instead of putting him down before his crew is even created.

I like this idea a lot.
Still you would have to decide which rules to protect  and to enforce, since not everyone follows the same rules.

For example there has been a set of BE-Rules …i am not sure if it is still a thing.
And more pirate-y crews would propably rather atack you than follow you…

So i think the best way to make such a police-crew would be to back it up as part of a bigger crew in whichs territory you opperate.
That way you have a stronger force behind you, a set of rules that should be known to everybody within the area and people you already know if you have been active in the crew before.
