I understand from most replies that bazaar is basically a criminal hideout/hub. But when gunfights breakout, it ends up being aids on both sides. During any gunfight you just see a bunch of dumb fucks standing there in the middle of a gunfight like nothing is going on. I personally have had gunfights in the middle of bazaar as a cop and as all of you could say 'criminal'. It is complete aids. Bazaar gunfights just bring a fuck ton of salt into the OOC chat and then it comes into forums where everyone bitches. People just need to get used to the changes and the police just need to shut the fuck up and leave bazaar and take any suspect back to the PD to conclude an investigation.
@ErmakDimon Having defences or not doesn't really do fuck all in bazaar. Criminals kill a guy and hide in any of their friends shop and just chill there and shit themselves in org chat (Like I do.). They know that the officers cant search every single market stall, and they use all of that to their advantage. Criminals use bazaar for many reasons:
-Easy to hide from police
-Great places to peak and kill people
-In public at most times so no one bothers to raid, giving the criminals an easy drug growing experience
-Guns are always sold there
There could be many more reasons but these are the only reasons you could assume why they chill around bazaar. Realistically and in many TV shows and Movies, markets and these type of shops are used to sell many shady things. They are normally criminal hideouts and this seems like a suitable area for the criminals to mostly be.
About the police in situations located within bazaar. The cops are sometimes the cause of many gunfights, they normally decide to do a 'Whole' investigation in the middle of bazaar in view of their suspects friends. I suggest like
@Slayerduck suggested on PLPD.online that officers conclude and do the rest of their 'investigations' at the PD. This keeps information private from the suspects friends causing them to do fuck all. This avoids gunfights and deaths of many people. It saves lives, your life that you
Value.
Then these officers (like i do sometimes, if not all the time) decide to take it to the OOC chat. This is where the shit hits the fan and causes hatred between others. Then these criminals tend to reply 'You don't loose anything, so why complain?' The officers do honestly loose something and that is their Life. That is a high value thing. Its more important then a gun and 4 pots off narcotics. So it isn't just criminals that loose the most. Sometimes people don't give a shit as a cop and run into shootouts like headless chickens. Their lives also matter. Like anyone's life on the server. We also have those idiots that decide to shout '10 toes' when being arrested for a small sentence of about 5 years that causes the confusion and gunfights.
In all honesty it isn't bazaar that is shit, it is just the idiots that populate the area that are shit and it isn't always the criminals that decide to start a gunfight, its an officers incompetence to keep high priority information classified from individuals that causes most shootouts. We all just need to get used to this shit and just carry on with it instead of bitching about. If someone breaks a rule, fine, but that's why you have the F6 function and the Action requests section on forums.
Some may disagree and that is fine, just leave what you think in the comments.
