United Police Department

=Introduction=
The United Police Department Was a police roleplay group in VRChat that ran from 2020- 2021. It was originally founded by Bunbun aka Kindred Spirits and Mr. Tan aka Rock. The community has come a long way since it was founded back in December 28th of 2019 from the ground up it took a lot of hard work to get the server to where it was thanks to many of its dedicated staff and UPD members helping day after day.
The UPD was closed down for roleplay activities on July 23rd 2021. Kindred sold the rights to the patch and group name to Upliftedkid due to people wanting to continue with the legacy. Kindred wanted to officially retire from the police roleplaying communities in 2021.
=History=
In the past the United Police used to be known as the (MPD)Miko Police Department based off of the name of the police roleplay avatars made by Sarma an avatar creator.
The community was created on November 2019 and lead by Mr. Tan in January 2020. We were known as MPD (Miko Police Department) the first police community that was Quest user friendly. Shortly after, Mr. Tan left the community due to personal reasons and left it under the leadership of ~Bunbun~ aka Kindred. In March 2020 the department changed from MPD to UPD (United Police Department) allowing all different avatar bases to join the community. Thus the Nanachi base was the first to join the force along side with the Mikos. It didn't take long till new avatar bases joined the police roleplay and everyone was able to find something that fit with their personality. In July 2020 Sarma left UPD leaving his wisdom to the staff and in August 2020 Bunbun aka Kindred stepped down as Chief but worked behind the scenes as an advisor and owner.
United Police Department eventually came to an end towards the summer of 2021 due to a lack of activity. However, UpliftedMax showed interest in restarting the community after a few members showed their grief about the department closing. UpliftedMax bought the United Police Department from Kindred and became the new owner of UPD. The community ran for a few more months till Max decided to close temporarily due to personal and creative reasons.
Relaunch of UPD
Now, previous owner Kindred and new owner UpliftedMax have decided to work together alongside staff members who had previous staff experience from other communities to create a new fun roleplaying environment for everyone to join. UPD is now officially running again.
=Activities=
The types of events that go on in the UPD are fun events like recruitment patrols, swat patrols and training, regular patrols, and even off duty events like movie nights and mini-games the community is just full of fun and during this event you can make many friends and learn more about them.
=="On Duty" Events==
An "On duty" event is for officers of the UPD. These events are always handled by event hosts.
===What is an "On Duty" event?===
An "On duty" event is an event that is specialized around patrolling. However, sometimes there are also what you call "Team bonding exercises" where new and old officers get to know each other better. More information can be found on the Discord server.
=="Off duty" events==
Every now and then, an "Off duty" event will be held. These events are events that aren't related to the UPD RP community, in which everyone who wishes to join can join.
===What is an "Off duty" event?===
"Off duty" events are events just meant for having fun with fellow officers or civilians and are an optional section to be a part of. "Off duty" events do not have any required activity, and one of the few requirements is that the activity has to support multiple people. Sometimes the event hosts have a karaoke night, a movie night, or haunted house explorations. These types of events can only be held by a registered event host, which everyone can apply for. More information can be found on the Discord server.
