Just posting as the only written proof, although this is an IC message, of the hammering this issue has seen, a message on the day after recruitment, after induction. Every other time I have talked about this, I'd need the logs to retrieve.
Some more unconnected examples,
Every auxiliary unit, has been told IC, OOC, through the discord, through the server, through DMs, about a thousand times, and they've been told (and sometimes even threatened) with very disciplinary action, IC and OOC, if they are to actively seek and destroy experiences for their own benefit. In fact, day one they were explicitly told that they would be judged on RP quality and disposition, not 'victories', 'achievements' or similar. They are likely to confirm this. After all, this sub-faction was designed with failure in mind.
@HOKI can also confirm OOC faction rules are both strict and fairly surveilled when it comes to these things.
That said, @Donavin Jones if you want to reach out to me about who you think might've breached these "general courtesy" clauses let me know over DMs or in this very post and I will adress it. I have sadly been inactive for the first time in Willard due to personal reasons, and might've missed a thing or two about them.
I'm pinging some of them at random (so not everyone is meta'd) well in case they want to say anything about this matter in light of these happenings.
@Cocohop @Freudek @Neonity @Sync. I also encourage other non pinged auxes to join in the conversation and prove/disprove what we've both said.
Now onto your comment,
These Aux units, are basically OSF except they are CP,
I can see where the comparison comes from but the OSF is an unmentionable spawn of the devil for military LARPers who play in a completely different server (and thank god for that).
some of these guys are more equipped then civil protection, on a small amount that is, one of which has a revolver, one having a double barrel.
This is completely untrue, btw. Their armor is worse both from an IC and OOC standpoint (if existant at all), their gear is non-functional, they have no PDA, no HUD, no meds, no ammunition, no repair plates, no access to records, cameras, or any of the devices that give the CP the edge in battle. They are only issued a stunstick. They are well informed on what they might be able to carry or not - if some of these units wish to 'break the rules' and carry higher weaponry while supervisors aren't looking, it's on them. Equipment check-ups and such are a thing.
I find it particularly hilarious you complain about these two weapons in particular (they've scavenged them off a dead rebel, I think), considering half of the slums characters have x4 times the armour and x5 the damage, not to mention the area advantage - I won't say you're getting served your own medicine because there are, atm, 12 auxiliary units and you only mentioned 2 of them having a makeshift anything, but, yeah. If they're grinding their arses out to get supplies, it pretty much just puts them on par with what YOU are able to do, anyway.
The Aux units patrol these slums more then actual CP's I've noticed, just today I witnessed around 10 or 12 sweeps by Aux units alone, only 5 of which I noticed had a actual CP (I-E only one or two cps).
Yes, that is exactly the point of the auxiliary detachment. Also, a 'sweep' is a break and entry kind of procedure, where people are detained, checks are made, and held at gunpoint. You forget Indigent patrols (which is what they do) were always a thing.
To point at the screenshots above, they've been promptly reminded not to be too intrusive. That said, I'd like to say something out of the bottom of my heart:
Most of you only use the slums as vehicle to the trash bags that spawn around. There is/was only one active roleplay hub in the slums, that being the Free Clinic. Most apartments in the slums are just defunct player 'bases' that cannot be raided or entered anyway because of convoluted rules. In my 3 months patrolling that with other, 'real' units, I've only seen that garage door bar open once. I think it's fairly dishonest to everyone in the conversation to say "aux units are killing rebel RP" when you (mostly) already kinda killed it on your own beforehand, alongside the shitty systems that go around with it.
I have also heard people complain about 'the plaza' being 'empty' after the aux units got released, as if everyone wasn't just burning through filters in the underground bar beforehand and letting city RP rot in hell. I think you're deflecting the problem.
I have faith in the current recruitments' roleplay capabilities, OOC - or rather, in most of them, anyway. From what I have been told by everyone else they are behaving correctly, getting good development, and being victims of unnecessary OOCly targetted hate by people who really don't know what they're talking about. And I'm sorry to say this but it does sound like you don't know what you're talking about.
Either way your concerns are valid - again, I insist. If you find people have been not doing what I said in this post, feel free to reach out to me, in this post or DMs. I don't need "proof" or any of those stupid stuff others ask about, your word will be enough - but expect to be held to it if it proves untrue.
What is important is the enjoyment of the factions involved, to me. Auxes were conceived to be corrupt and vulnerable, and actually give you stuff to do, be it for setting them as easy targets and loot, or as a way to get supplies and information onto the CP by 'befriending' them and dealing with them behind the curtains. To add, they've also been kept in the dark about a lot of mechanics, for them to discover on their own, experiment, rather than being "lol-trained" like most CPs are on induction. It is much more of a sandbox, creative faction than a strict 'soldier-like' demanding life like the real Civil Protection is.
If it isn't going as planned, I'm willing to get the faction leads to help me pull some brakes, but I need a little bit more than just an OOC clash of interests ('they are a potential risk to my lackluster behaviour so I hate them' OOC kinda beat) - which is what this, and the recent incident concerning CP-4 illustrate.
And feel absolutely free to clap back, get filterless - don't be afraid to call out people, myself included. I want to hear what you have to say. It'd be foolish to outright dismiss this.
