[OCRP] Rule Clarification
« on: November 28, 2011, 11:27:20 PM »
A lot of discussion has been going on about a certain rule, and in private, we have decided that...

When coming to an intersection and you are greeted with a red light, you may turn right on the red light.

Some things to note:
  • This only applies to right turns.
  • You MUST make a complete stop and yield the right of way (meaning you must let other cars coming from the left or turning in front of you turn before you proceed).

If you have any questions as to why this is the way it is, we would be glad to answer them. Please however don't begin a heated debate over it as it has been set which way this rule will be played. Hopefully this post will prevent anyone from posting anymore threads regarding this.

Ignore Nick.

Right turn on red is allowed but not required, you can wait until it is green if you feel.

This does not count before RoflWaffle confirmed it! Ignore this "rule" for now because SOMEONE decided to overstep his authority without confirmation from those who actually do have the authority.

Not to say unnecessary things, but right on red was never against the rules, and since we follow American road laws, you could always turn right on red. Cough cough.

That is something we discussed, and we do not actually follow every single american road law.

I'm just going to say that this was useless to post,  we already knew we could turn right (Even tho some admins where so dumb they would physgun you up to the roof in your car for turning right on red)

I mean it was common sense to know this stuff right?  And we make a news/post about it. lol

You're one to talk.

Evocity, if I recall, is based on a city in Colorado, United States.

Evocity is based in Minnesota - hence the Minnesota State Police skin for Sickness Cars.
I could find a thread where Sgt. Sgt. specifically says it is in Minnesota but I'm lazy.

This was indeed necessary. We had a 3 page discussion in the admin forum about this, and it wasn't too pretty. I also happened to look in the OCRP Guides section, and sure enough I found a guide where somebody said that it was allowed and an admin mis-corrected him saying it wasn't. Now, for instance, that player may be thinking that you can't turn on red, when you certainly can.

This is something that was needed to be brought up, and Nicknero, please don't try to claim I "overstepped" the "higher ups", because I read RTLK's post in the admin forum which stated it was clearly allowed, allowing this to be confirmed. I like how you think making it in big bold red letters makes you look cool. For that, your post was deleted :)

Nick don't be an elitist k?

Warning issued. Unneeded comment. Not you're job to tell someone something like that. Rofl will do that if necessary. ~ Crap-Head
Reply: It is my opinion and I have a right to that, it is blatantly obvious that he is being elitist, show a little respect to others opinions.

The way you made this thread and how you posted in the other thread was clearly "Oh look guys, it's in the guides hence I'm right as always hence I make this news posts withing caring a damn what other admins think."
And before anyone else claims I'm elitist, that post which you find necessary to remove was written by both me and JiggerFrizz. Two SA's who both agreed that this thread was far from necessary.

However, this isn't the place to start arguments like this, so lets drop the subject.
Check out my Youtube channel with all kinds of cool videos including LP's which I'm currently working at. Don't forget to give feedback as well. ;)
