Tfw Guard racist.

Seriousness though, the lack of activity in the guard has been a problem as of late. Just remember, I managed to start and finish a 4 man team fight in the middle of Cellsvich on Horatio, the guard STILL haven't managed to speak to Hachi despite him being in Cellsvich countless times, and let Jaque off with breaking a guy's nose mostly because he's a smooth talker. I've got very few gripes with the guard, but the inactivity is an issue, a huge one. There's players who are on practically every day who've vied for guard spots in the past and been denied, and players who are rarely on that are guards. Now, I'm not accusing anyone of that or anything there, so don't mistake me for that. But, I do think it'd be smart to open up guard applications sooner rather than later, Chaos.

As for prison, I kept Barra online for a full 6 hour (ooc) imprisonment(PUN HAND) and I sat and RPed with Faye (Spoops), it was really nice character dev for Barra at the time, and she was one of the first guards to find out who he was back home. I think maybe to encourage characters who become prisoners to maybe stay active in jail, the extra active guards would be nice, especially the ones who'd be willing to spend their time co-ordinating RP times with prisoners, especially the long-sentence ones.

The guard shouldn't be hated for doing their job, especially not OOCly. ICly, hate them as much as you want, I have chars that hate the guard (Barra, Hachi, Horatio, Guy, Jaque), I have chars that love the guard (Itadeki, Raina) and chars that are indifferent but understand their purpose. OOCly? Well, I applied for them ages ago, and do intend on applying again with Itadeki eventually, so that should tell you my opinion on them now. I have my gripes about how they are right now, and it is mostly because of the lack thereof, so yeah, time to get the new recruits in, Chaos. We really need active guards now.

EDIT: I do wanna say Mark (MakeshiftWalrus) is one of my fave guards, especially after putting up with my shit on Barra with the pun hand fiasco, it was hilarious RP, and to all the other guards who've been annoyed by his antics (Frank, Kira, Spo, Lone etc.)
