== Foreword ==
As the DHPD has expanded, there has been a need for our official policies and procedures be codified so that all personnel can be operating under the same assumptions and directives whilst in the field.


== Expanded Manifesto==
== Expanded Manifesto ==
The Dunell Hills Police Department exists to protect and serve the People of Dunell Hills and the rest of Malton from the zombie threat and the spread of the NT-Zed1 virus. To achieve this we will do all that is within our power to protect the survivors of Malton within our borders, and do our best to keep the zombie threat outside said borders. The fear and tyranny brought forth by the hordes of the undead must be put down and we will use our creator given skills, equipment, and APs to do just that. '''Sic Semper Tyranus''' ''Thus Always To Tyrants''...

=== Stay Human ===
=== Stay Human ===
Officer Conndraka has a four word mantra: ''Stay safe, Stay alive''. Although this seems easier said than done
The unofficial motto of the DHPD is ''Stay safe, stay alive''.  


Obviously as a survivor organization, we encourage all personnel to take all possible actions to get revived in the event that they are killed in the field.

=== Consolidate ===
Dunell Hills is our home. From here we can eventually expand further into Malton, but first we must gather as many survivors to our perimeter so that we can more effectively protect civilians from the threat of infection and zombie assault.
Dunell Hills is the primary home of the DHPD. The DHPDs mission is bring survivors to the suburb, and protect it from the zombie threat.


== Membership Requirements ==
== Membership Requirements ==
Membership to the Dunell Hills Police Department is open to any and all survivors that are willing to relocate to Dunell Hills or its nearby environs. Operations frequently take officers well out of Dunell Hills, but Dunell is home sweet home and is usually quite a bit safer than the rest of Malton.
Membership to the Dunell Hills Police Department is open to any and all survivors that are willing to relocate to Dunell Hills or its nearby environs. Operations frequently take officers well out of Dunell Hills, but Dunell Hills is the centre of the DHPD's area.


To join, enter your name in the current members section on the bulletin board in the [[DHPD Front Office]]. And update your profile with Internal Affairs on the [[DHPD Department of Internal Affairs|Internal Affairs page]]. Be sure to put "'''Dunell Hills Police Department'''" in "Group" on your Urban Dead profile. Don't abbreviate or use any punctuation. As a member of the DHPD, you should always represent the DHPD in the best of light and provide assistance whenever possible to civilians and to your fellow officers. DHPD members are encouraged to contribute to any DHPD page.
To join, apply in the Recruitment section of the [[http://dhpdforums.proboards67.com/|DHPD Forum]]. As a member of the DHPD, you shall always represent the DHPD in the best possible light and provide assistance whenever possible to civilians and to your fellow officers.


== Requirements for Leadership Position ==
== Requirements for Leadership Position ==
To be considered for a leadership position with the DHPD three primary factors are considered.
Primary leadership positions in the DHPD are determined by popular vote. Only full officers may vote in such elections.
 
:1. How long have you been involved with the Department?


:2. Do you have the necessary time outside of actual UD playtime to dedicate to the Department?
Other leadership roles are assigned based on experience, activity and character.
 
:3. How willing are other DHPD willing to listen to, and endorse the candidate.
 
Beyond that, to be a member of the DHPD leadership is a MAJOR responsibility. Although "Green Stars" means we are in charge, we also have the responsibility of taking care of everyone under our authority... We don't want to end up on the wrong end of ''Sic Semper Tyranus''.


== Chain of Command==
== Chain of Command==
The Department is a combination of two strategic concepts. The first is based on the NYPD hierarchy and was modified to fit Dunell Hills prior to the outbreak. The second, and more revolutionary, took place during the early days of the outbreak as survivors came together around Sharko and reconstituted the department. The structure of command is still subject to change to better adapt to service in Malton.
* '''Commissioner'''
: The leader of the DHPD.
* '''First Commissioner'''
: Deputy leader of the DHPD.
* '''Department of Field Operations Commissioner (DFO-C)'''
: Strategic leader and squad coordinator.
* '''Squad Leaders'''
: In charge of individual teams.
* '''Officers'''
: Members of the DHPD.
* '''Recruits'''
: New members of the DHPD.


== Barricading Policy ==
== Barricading Policy ==
The DHPD follows the Counterpoint Barricading Strategy rather than the Strategy of Distributed Defense. Although "DD" works well in siege environments, it sacrifices new players for the survival of older, more experienced players. The genre would lead us to believe that our primary responsibility is to protect ALL survivors, not just those with free running.

'''LOCK-DOWN''' - In times of EXTREME zombie activity Lock-Down may be called for, this order can only be issued by FmrPFCBob, GoldStar, or Bad ass mom. This policy applies only to Dunell Hills itself.
For details, refer to the [[Dunell_Hills/Barricade_Plan#Standard_Barricade_Policy|Dunell Hills Standard Barricade Plan]].


All Buildings except Churches, museums, and libraries should go to VERY HEAVY or above. Churches should not be barricaded. Libraries and museums should be very strongly barricaded.

The DHPD considers PKing within the DMZ to be a violation of its criminal code. Individuals who are

* The subject is subject to a group warranted on the [[DHPD/Most Wanted]].
POLICY CHANGE EFFECTIVE 25 MAR 2006


Don't do it. A Number of Organizations cried foul over Alts being used in the same organization. For this reason keep your Alt Characters out of the DHPD and out of Dunell Hills. Zergs (of other players ) should be ignored if possible, but if the "principle" can be identified then by all means liquidate him/her.
* The subject was witnessed committed a clear violation of the Criminal Code, and immediate action was required by the officer to prevent the subject escaping. The officer shall capture evidence which will be scrutinised by the appropriate DHPD personnel.


=== DHPD Stance on Shared-Use Characters ===
Warrant executions must be performed as per the correct procedures on the DHPD forum.


NEW POLICY EFFECTIVE 25 MAR 2006
=== Zerging and Alts===


Despite the legality of the Desk Sgts, there has arisen to many complaints about them having easy access to too much information and allegations of "Cheating" abound. therefore we are going to take the high road on this and farm out the Sergeants and Monitors to some of the Newer players and have the newer players drop their principals. Hopefully this will appease the undead masses like a craniological medical waste truck spilling over on the highway.
The DHPD permits members to have only '''one''' character in the DHPD.  


====Clarification of Policies for DHPD and Alts====
Members with alternate characters (alts) must remain outside the [[DMZ]]. Interaction between these characters is not permitted.


As a group it is our official policy to abide by the rules of Kevan and the Coalition for Fair Tactics regarding multiple characters. As individual players it is our responsibility to make sure we follow that policy. Actions that violate the rules are usually obvious but sometimes we move into gray areas that need to be addressed.
Alts within allied and enemy groups is permitted, provided they remain outside the [[DMZ]]. Alts shall not be extensions of the DHPD to enforce/execute DHPD policies outside our area.
Alts are not subject to the same policies, procedures, or protections as DHPD members.


[you may have multiple characters] provided that they lead completely separate existences within the game - your characters should not collaborate, nor share (or stand outside) the same building
Members shall refrain from sharing information gained from their membership in outside groups. Likewise, sensitive information on DHPD activities shall not be shared with other organisations.


The umbrella rule that covers all interactions with multiple characters, interpretations vary as the rule is enforced by Kevan and the community.
=== Shared-Use Characters ===


The DHPD previously used shared characters ('Desk Sergeants') for the purpose of training new members.


Alts and groups:
This practice is no longer considered appropriate, and is now prohibited with the DHPD.


:* You may have '''ONE''' character in the "Dunell Hills Police Department".
=== Zombie Spying ===
:* You may have '''ONE''' character in each of the 'official' alt groups.
:* You may have character(s) in DHPD ally or enemy groups.


The DHPD does not warrant or take action against survivors for activities considered to be 'spying' for zombie groups, provided no violation of Criminal Code takes place.


Alts and suburbs:
=== Griefers  ===


:* The DHPD operates primarily in Dunell Hills and the neighboring five suburbs, ideally you should have only your DHPD character in that area.
Continued hostile actions against the DHPD may result in the issuing of permanent warrants.
:* If you have an ally character in the area (i.e. Zombie Squad) you must keep them seperated, be aware - some groups still consider this meta-zerging.
:* Characters from the 'official' alt groups and enemy groups should be kept out of the area at all times.
 
 
Other alt rules
 
:* Your alts are not extensions of the DHPD to enforce/execute DHPD policies outside our area.
:* Your alts are not subject to the same policies, procedures, or protections as DHPD members.
 
 
Enforcement:
 
:* Everyone should have the self-discipline to follow the rules.
:* If you see or suspect someone of violating policy bring it to the attention of a staff member (including the commissioners) to be reviewed.
:* Disciplinary action will vary depending on the circumstances and severity of the violation. Minor/first offenses will be warned, habitual or major offenses can result in banning.
 
=== DHPD Stance on "Zombie Spy" Activities  ===
The leadership of Dunell hills holds the accusation of Zombie Spying to be over emphasized. With the advent of observable actions (i.e. seeing who kills who and who destroys generators) the issue has become even less of a problem. If someone wants to act as a "Death Cultist" then so be it...
 
=== DHPD Stance on "Griefers" Activities  ===
Griefers should be shot as soon as their actions become apparent. Acting as to simply make the game less enjoyable for others is both unwarranted and immature.


== Complaint Resolution ==
== Complaint Resolution ==
Step one in resolving a conflict is to address an issue with the other individual(s) involved. Failing that please follow the following procedure.
The first step in resolving a conflict is to address the issue with the other individual(s) involved. If this fails, please bring the matter to our attention at the [[http://dhpdforums.proboards67.com| DHPD Forum]].

DHPD Policies and Procedures
Dunell Hills Police Department Dhpdbanner5.png Dhpdbanner2.png


Foreword

As the DHPD has expanded, there has been a need for our official policies and procedures be codified so that all personnel can be operating under the same assumptions and directives whilst in the field.

Expanded Manifesto

The Dunell Hills Police Department exists to protect and serve the people of Dunell Hills and the rest of Malton from the zombie threat. To achieve this, we will do all that is within our power to protect the survivors of Malton within our borders, and do our best to keep the zombie threat outside these borders. The fear and tyranny brought forth by the hordes of the undead must be resisted, and we will use all our skill, equipment and experience to do this. Sic Semper Tyranus - 'Thus Always To Tyrants'.

Stay Human

The unofficial motto of the DHPD is Stay safe, stay alive.

As a survivor organization, all personnel are encouraged to take all possible actions to get revived in the event that they are killed in the field.

Consolidate

Dunell Hills is the primary home of the DHPD. The DHPDs mission is bring survivors to the suburb, and protect it from the zombie threat.

Membership Requirements

Membership to the Dunell Hills Police Department is open to any and all survivors that are willing to relocate to Dunell Hills or its nearby environs. Operations frequently take officers well out of Dunell Hills, but Dunell Hills is the centre of the DHPD's area.

To join, apply in the Recruitment section of the [Forum]. As a member of the DHPD, you shall always represent the DHPD in the best possible light and provide assistance whenever possible to civilians and to your fellow officers.

Requirements for Leadership Position

Primary leadership positions in the DHPD are determined by popular vote. Only full officers may vote in such elections.

Other leadership roles are assigned based on experience, activity and character.

Chain of Command

  • Commissioner
The leader of the DHPD.
  • First Commissioner
Deputy leader of the DHPD.
  • Department of Field Operations Commissioner (DFO-C)
Strategic leader and squad coordinator.
  • Squad Leaders
In charge of individual teams.
  • Officers
Members of the DHPD.
  • Recruits
New members of the DHPD.

Barricading Policy

Standard Barricade Policy

The DHPD follows the Counterpoint Barricading Strategy rather than the Strategy of Distributed Defense. Although 'DD' works well in siege environments, it sacrifices new players for the survival of older, more experienced players. The DHPD believes its responsibility is to protect ALL survivors, not just those with free running.

Why follow the CP Strategy?

  • Newbies need to cluster together for survival. Preferably near resource buildings.
  • Characters that are likely to be specific targets are more likely to have free running.
  • Said characters are also more likely to be able to dump ammo and make a significant difference on an attacking horde and still be able to run back into a building and then free run to an Extremely Heavily barricaded building.

While...

  • The mass of newer characters are in the buildings that need defended the most, with their 5-30% hit accuracy, rather than clustered in a building that holds relative unimportance to the suburb.
  • This follows the "General Grant" theory of infantry deployment.
  • As the Strategy of Distributed Defense is popular throughout Malton, Zeds are likely to believe that the EH buildings are holding more survivors than they are.
  • This will create "bottlenecks" of Zeds, keeping them close together, allowing us to spend our APs firing rounds and swinging axes rather than having to travel to meet the enemy.

For details, refer to the Dunell Hills Standard Barricade Plan.

Lock-Down Barricade Policy

In times of extreme zombie activity, the DHPD may follow a lock-down barricade policy. All buildings except churches and designated entry points should go to VERY HEAVY or above. Entry points such as libraries and museums should be very strongly barricaded.

Prsonnel without countermanding orders should concentrate on maintaining the barricades as a priority, rather than engaging zombies. Any personnel without Free Running are encouraged to evacuate for safety.

For details, refer to the Dunell Hills Lock-Down Barricade Plan.

Tagging Policy

Officers should consider the following guidelines when using a spray can:

  • Tag the area to direct wandering survivors to safety.
  • Do not paint over DHPD tags, except with new DHPD tags.
  • If you see a DHPD tag that has been painted over, replace it.
  • Tags outside the hallowed walls of Dunell Hills suburb; don't be inconsiderate and write over others people tags if their tags are for real.
  • Otherwise, by all means write over "the zombies are ownzed" with something meaningful and helpful.

The DMZ

The DHPD's area of operation is referred to as the Dunell Military Zone, or DMZ. It consists of the following suburbs:

The DHPD does not claim 'possession' of these areas, but endeavours to patrol it.

Mergers and Acquisitions

This section is to outline how the DHPD will handle connections with entire groups that go beyond the basic or extensive alliance.

For any of the following actions, there must be a majority consensus among DHPD officers via forum polling.

  • Joining a multi-group Alliance
  • Merging into a Malton-wide organization
  • Subsuming another group

DHPD Stances

Player Killing (PKing)

The DHPD considers PKing within the DMZ to be a violation of its criminal code. Individuals who are

DHPD officers are not permitted to kill survivors unless the following conditions are satisfied:

  • The subject has a current warrant on the DHPD/Most Wanted for a valid criminal code violation.
  • The subject was witnessed committed a clear violation of the Criminal Code, and immediate action was required by the officer to prevent the subject escaping. The officer shall capture evidence which will be scrutinised by the appropriate DHPD personnel.

Zerging and Alts

The DHPD permits members to have only one character in the DHPD.

Members with alternate characters (alts) must remain outside the DMZ. Interaction between these characters is not permitted.

Alts within allied and enemy groups is permitted, provided they remain outside the DMZ. Alts shall not be extensions of the DHPD to enforce/execute DHPD policies outside our area. Alts are not subject to the same policies, procedures, or protections as DHPD members.

Members shall refrain from sharing information gained from their membership in outside groups. Likewise, sensitive information on DHPD activities shall not be shared with other organisations.
