INTRODUCTION
Top Quality Roleplay is a new community with old roots. We are attempting to combine ESX with FivePD to provide an environment in which public safety personnel can interact with both players and locals on our server. This way they don’t have to log on and sit around waiting for players to join or they don’t have to suffer through only dealing with AI all the time.
MISSION STATEMENT
Top Quality Roleplay’s mission is to provide a reality based, fun environment for members to roleplay in with the scripts, staff and membership to support and encourage roleplaying.
DEVELOPMENT
We are attempting to create a reality based environment supported with scripts to give members the tools to have fun and roleplay as their desired character, be it a civilian just trying to make a living and buy a fancy car, or a criminal trying to grow his organization, or a cop or firefighter serving the community.
By reality based we mean that we are paying attention to the little details that make the game feel more immersive. For example; no First Name and Last Initial naming format here. We’ve never seen a real police officer with a name tag that read “John S.” Another example is that Miranda Warnings will not be required on every arrest, only if you intend to question a suspect. And not reading a suspect a Miranda warning may not result in a case being thrown out. Just like in real life. Hell we are even going to teach officers what a Miranda warning really is.
Which brings us to our training plan for law enforcement and firefighters. We have created the San Andreas Commission on Law Enforcement (SACOLE) and the San Andreas Commission on Fire Protection (SACFP) ; these titles will be our licensing agencies. The concept is that every law enforcement officer on our server will be trained to the same basic level in things that we feel every officer should know; how to use FivePD and ESX, Use of Force (the real world not FiveM), Arrest Search and Seizure rules, Emergency Driving, Seven Step Violator Contact, etc. And firefighters will be trained in the basics of fire protection; what’s the difference between an attack and defensive strategy, or the difference between how you deal with a house fire compared to a wildland fire, what does ALS mean, etc.
This will license every law enforcement officer at a basic level, then they go off to their respective agency to begin their field training (not ride alongs, those are for civilians wanting to learn about policing, not police officers in training). Field Training and probationary periods for on-the-job training with the possibility of eventual advanced training certifications; SWAT, Narcotics, Traffic Enforcement, Aviation or Motorcycle Patrolling Techniques. Firefighters will also have advanced certifications; Drive/Operator (Aerial or Pumper), Wildland Fire Protection, Fire Officer (I through IV).
All of this is proposed and planned and we are looking for people to provide input and suggestions toward accomplishing our SACOLE and SACFP training and licensing.
STAFF & SCRIPTS
Our staff consists of older gentlemen that have various degrees of experience in both the FiveM community as well as real world law enforcement. No kids with egos here… well, maybe a little bit of ego… can you blame us, we put a lot of time, energy and money into developing Top Quality Roleplay.
We are using ESX and FivePD as our base of operations with paid scripts to try and make us unique and raise the quality of the experience members will have while roleplaying in our community. And our staff listens to the membership as much as we can. Something broken that hampers the ability to roleplay? It shouldn’t take three weeks for someone to get around to it, it should take priority. Developers and staff can play around with the bells and whistles they want to get up and running later.
Also, all paid scripts belong to the community. The staff has agreed that should any staff member leave, the scripts they provide or work on will remain with the community.
AGENCIES AND MEMBERSHIP
Our intent is to have four base public service agencies to start off with and the staff will act as the “command” authority for those agencies.:
Los Santos Police Department
Blaine County Sheriff’s Office
San Andreas State Police
San Andreas Fire Rescue
This means that the staff will make major decisions that affect the entirety of an agency. Who gets a Gang Task Force, who gets a K-9 or Air Unit, changes to the policy of that agency, which patrol cars are available to officers as a whole. But the faction leader for each agency runs the day to day operations of that agency and can make minor changes, which cars different officers can drive, etc. Faction leaders may more may not be staff members and may be of various ranks for example; our current SASP faction leader is the Commissioner but our LSPD faction leader is only a Lieutenant.
After we grow other agencies may be considered as long as they fall in line with the staff image of the San Andreas we envision.
We also will consider various other organizations based upon the total number of members and the number of members that want to join an organization. For example; if someone joins during our testing phase and he eventually brings in four friends… the five of them can speak with the staff about creating a motorcycle club or criminal organization.
What we are looking for are members that will be active and help us test the server during our testing phase with the intent of rewarding that activity and assistance when we go “live” for in-character roleplaying officially. We are not looking for people with self professed administrative or leadership experience. If you are looking to be an admin or supervisor at Top Quality Roleplay, you are going to have to prove to the staff and faction leaders that you are active and can roleplay. Plenty of servers out there that hand out admin or moderator status like candy, here you have to earn it.
If you are interested in learning more, please contact a staff member at our Discord. If not, we wish you well in your search for a server that suits your play style and future plans in the FiveM community…
