Chase stuff/speeding

[Kyance]

Almost every on the server only plays for the cop chases - they speed, drive recklessly, etc..
For an example, we all know the good old Koyoto Ring autobahn, and the roundabout it has at one place.. Most of the time, somebody decides that he'll go ~200km/h and slam the breaks at the very last second thus, crashing into me. If not that, then somebody will pass me super close, or ignore my turn signals, or just decide that'll start drifting in-front of me & purposely slow down.

I get it, for most of you it's probably boring to drive "normally", but for me it's boring to have every 3rd car (almost) hit, ram or spin you out the track.

My suggestion is that, after a chase, you'll lose much more money when speeding, for atleast 5 minutes.
(You already lose 1 - 50(or more?) euros when you go past 180km/h (could be 200km/h, dunno, haven't driven that fast in a long time), so when you have the 5 minute "cooldown", you'll lose more.)
tl;dr: If you've had a chase, which you won/lost, but you still decide to speed, you'll lose more money than usual.

I know that this won't make it up for the people who decide to break at the very last second or speed without being caught by the police(somehow that happens lol), but this is the only suggestion I could think of that doesn't "strict" you into doing less stuff.

Hmm, strangely I actually kind of like the concept of this idea.

I'm a little unsure.

Thanks! It just came into my head when raging at people that constantly ram me at the roundabout.

Well, I don't really know how to word it shortly, but, uh, everyone should (hopefully) get the point. xD

If you see a user intentionally crashing into cops or civilians, or otherwise provoking cops, so that they might get chased for doing so, just report them either in-game or on the forums.

On another hand, I'm kinda unsure about this idea. It sounds nice, however I'm not so sure would it be fair towards other people than cops.

I am unsure of this idea myself, I am 60% no and 40% yes. As someone who cares little for COPing and being a suspect, it would detract little from my experience of the server.

The person speeding already loses money by going too fast. He also loses money when being chased or arrested by the police. I find this a suitable deterrent. No need to add something else.

This is a no from me.

Having a think about it again, it is too beneficial towards cops. Suspects lose on average I'm guessing around 2000 euros per high speed chase not including the fines if the suspect was to lose. That's what I tend to loose anyways aha.

It would be nice to have something that would discourage people from speeding immediately after a chase or a traffic stop though.

As for the ramming from careless driving, it's not that often this happens if you take enough caution yourself, sometimes an accident will happen, not much you can do about it I'm afraid but if a user is constantly causing careless problems, simply report it

2'000 euros? woah.. didn't think about that D:
I do use the breaks carefully, I slightly hold it/slow down slowly, but people still hit me xD

@Olli & Sebas: True, but It'd give a some what 'calmer' feeling to the server. And tbh if they don't want to lose much money they could just slow down

Uh, right.. I guess this can be locked/moved, didn't think it trough d:

Its a Cops&Robbers server after all. If we were to deter people from actually breaking road laws it wouldn't be as fun as it is now.

I think your message goes more towards people not respecting other players and causing issues with people i.e: Tailgating, Dangerous maneuvers and such. I would highly recommend that you report these people to the admins available on the server at the time. Its a more suitable way to fix the issue.

True.
Well, I guess it's time to stop being lazy and report them

[[TC]►Frozen◄]

Agree, you lose enough money already speeding as a civilian.

If you have an issue with a suspect try to ask him nicely to stop doing "that" and if he just ignores you let an admin handle it

I think this is a good idea! It's a bit like in real life where you are on 'probation' or something like that.
