Also @Logan Finch hehhe cant agree if you're against the PD
Stop being in denial and actually communicate with us instead of rating shit and leaving us for another century, or is the truth too much to handle for our sugar high horses?

veri nic video, and what @Creepis said is true cuz the game mode indeed is quite complicated nowadays, why would any new player want to spend 1 month to figure out how to play it
im pretty new player (joined late 2016) and i got lucky because many players took me to base with them and shit, after a few weeks/months since i started playing i got invited to cancer minus where i met many good players and i got really lucky because i was a sweater and i was barely able to shoot
SO YEAH, if new players wanna join they will just have to get lucky and get someone to teach them how to play this shit
u should all blame junior naylor or whatever his name was for teaching me how to play when i joined
hes permabanned for cheating now tho, what hte fuck is wrong with people
Lol, you're still barely able to shoot ya knob head tk'er
I'm sure that my own server got more people than PERP when I hosted it including some peeps that were banned but who cares

Community right now
As a fellow member of the Evocity old player niggas, I can agree that Evocity and a bit up to V1 was the prime time for Perp. One reason being that people didn't care for minor rule breaks in an ORG war. Nowadays I see people complaining for the littlest things and taking the game more PERSONAL. The PD was great and very enjoyable because it wasn't so extremely serious. I've seen people having to eat ass and suck the dicks of the higher ranks to actually rank up.
Believe me. PERP was amazing back then and it saddens me to see it going down the drain.
Yes, the server should be running when @Creepis decides to upload the database to the VPS. Lazy t*rk.
So if you want Ground Control, go spam Creepis or smth.
I’ve come up with an idea that may be good for both sides of the arguement. Remove the whitelist for officer meaning anyone who joins the server can become an officer instantly no exceptions. Keep the ranking system through SO-Maj and let the rim lickers in command keep their ranks. This in theory would give new players something to do other than just grow and let’s the command members keep their full time jobs.

Although I'm obviously extremely against going back to the pre-whitelist police system you all so fondly remember. My main intention is and always has been to improve this server, it's no secret that the player count is lower than ever. Personally, I believe this is down to several factors, some of which are listed in @The Strange Deranged Mage's video. I'm fine with doing anything in attempt to 'revive' the community, although I remain stubborn that the Police System is not the issue (that's a debate for another day).
If we were at all to experiment with the premise of removing the 2+ years of hard-work put in by our officers, here's my proposal for how I believe it should initially go.
Of course this wouldn't be the final model if we did decide to completely remove it (which is still unlikely). But I'm more than happy to spend a week experimenting this. We'd probably bring back "swat slots" if we were to do this permanently.

I like the sound of this, we most likely don't need to revert permanently, but rather experiment for a week or so. I don't think 7 days would cut it though. A month maybe? If it gets real bad maybe revert early in case it just gets worse, and if it does go worse then we'll all know that the whitelist was a good thing, and if it doesn't go cancer, we don't really need to blame you, we wouldn't have known if we didn't try.
Although I wonder how the access to shotgun is going to go, since everyone would have access to it now as SGT+. It might not even be as cancer as we think, doesn't hurt to have a little hope.
I think a partial whitelist would be good though, those who are really interested can apply and those who are just casual can still play.
I'm aware that over 2 years of work from the ground is being reverted but if the player count drops to 10-20 daily, then what's all that effort worth in the end?
