  1. Disclaimer: So I'm going to deviate a little here from the usual structure of suggestions, and I'll just describe everything in a subsection. Elections Higher Res. Available On Request Let me summarise everything for you. How It Works For City Council - There will be eight successful candidates elected to the city council. Elections will take place in the wider Los Santos Metropolitan Area. - Constituencies pictured above are, From top left down; Chilliad West, Chilliad East, Grand Senora, Richman And Chumash, Vinewood, Beachfront, Downtown & Park, South And East Los Santos. - Constituencies are based on; population density; property prices; location; and average income. - Elections will use the AV System for electing candidates to constituencies. Upon proposals to expand the voting system, elections will switch to the STV system. Constituencies will stay the same, although members per constituency will increase. - By-elections will be called if a Member of City Council is inactive for more than two weeks without notice. This also occurs in the event of a Character Kill, a ban, or by request from Faction Management. - Elections will be handled by the Electoral Commission. - The Electoral Commission will add small modifiers to the vote in line with a variety of factors, including membership, polling, and establishment. the list of active modifiers will not be released in any capacity to preserve the vote and to prevent 'gaming' of the system. - The Electoral Commission will likely be made up of a multitude of FM and trusted members of the community. For Mayor - Elections will use the AV system indefinitely. - All constituencies will receive the same ballot paper for mayor. - By-elections will be called if a Mayor is inactive for more than two weeks without notice. Same restrictions apply as they do on City Council Membership. - Elections will be handled by the Electoral Commission. For Candidates - All candidates must be United States citizens. (IC) - All candidates must be over the age of 18. (IC) - All candidates will have their campaign funds limited by the Electoral Commission. Overspending will be considered an offence. (IC) - Candidates may stand with a party, or as an independent. - All candidates must have over a hundred hours spent within the server on any character. (OOC) - All candidates must be free from admin punishments in the last 28 days. (OOC) For Voters - Registering to vote will be possible through an online portal for your character. (IC) - All voters must be over the age of 18. (IC) - All Voters must be United States citizens. (IC) - No registration, no vote. (IC) - Registration will take place until three days before voting day. (IC) - Voting day will be in character, through an online system. (IC) - Proxy and postal votes will be possible. (IC) - Players require 10 hours on the server on any character in order to vote. (OOC) - Players with multiple characters in one account can only vote once in the same area. Separate characters will be able to vote in different areas if they live in different areas. Abuse of this will be referred to administation. (OOC) Benefits - Active, dynamic, political roleplay with a real effect on San Andreas law and the Penal Code. - Use of a Civil Service, allowing further legal roleplay opportunities. - Little work required done script-wise, other than a potential UCP link. - Political Representation for all characters within the server. - Leadership Debates, Election Debates, enhanced roleplay for news factions. (Makes good use of the new /news system.) - Formation of political parties and establishing the establishment. Rise of right-wing populism or the revival of social liberalism - you decide. - Countless possible interactions - divisions between friends over candidates, petitions, protests, and so on. - Political leaflets, slogans and advertising. Questions Q: Why AV? A: Smaller voting pool than real life, meaning it will be easy for elections to be won by one or two votes, this system will hopefully prevent that by using a more proportional system to distribute votes. Q: Is the player base big enough? A: I'd argue so - servers smaller than us have done this successfully, and the opportunities this provides is definitely exciting and new and can lead to a more immersive experience. Q: What about vote rigging/joke candidates/obviously unrealistic candidates? A: This can be controlled by both PLM and the Electoral Commission. Q: Does this mean more work for admins? A: Electoral Commission can take all of the responsibility and be a completely IC thing, all that is absolutely required is the appointment of the electoral commission, which can include admins or not, the verification of hours for candidates, and the verification of votes in counting. Q: Will enough people vote/stand? A: Many are interested in political roleplay, this will enhance their ability to get more involved. As for people voting, I believe that's an IC issue, it's up to the candidates to rally their player base. Any more questions, feel free to ask.

  3. Are you kidding me? This is great. The only time an NPC becomes an issue is when it's used as an accessory to metagame or powergame--as long as everyone involved is aware. You going in to a convenience store and aggravating a clerk, or me ordering a meal from a stoned minimum-wage teenager at the Horny's drive thru, doesn't directly affect anyone, or at least in a bad way. You and a friend, or even a group, doing something similar is all well and good until it infringes on information and/or actions that are beyond your reach as a narrator, or play things out in a way that could be interpreted as unfair. It's one thing to get a package from a pretend delivery driver, or to tell off the manager at a bank for a loan you didn't qualify for, but to say an NPC knows where someone is when no one else would know, or to have an NPC apprehend, injure or kill someone because you said they would? That's where the line is drawn.

  5. Name: Michael “Mike” Waters Birthdate: 16th September 1997 (22y old) Height: 5’9’’ | 1,80m Weight: 188lbs | 85kg Ethnicity: Caucasian Religion: N/A Origin: East Los Santos Alignment: Chaotic Good / Chaotic Neutral Michael is a man who tries to be as friendly and forthcoming with people as he can be. He has no issues chatting up total strangers and strike a conversation. He is genuinely nice if people show the same attitude towards him. (The “Good” part) Despite all this he has his very own world view and let’s nobody interfere with how he wants to live. He makes decisions based on short lived interests rather than well thought through plans which impacts his employment as well as general financial status. It also often gets him into trouble with the law when he enjoys thinks the state deemed not enjoyable (The “Chaotic” part). While he is friendly and open minded he does have tendencies to rebell. He spares no body part from tattoos. Considerations that should be made like how it impacts future employment never crosses his mind and instead he just does what he likes to do at that moment. He follows the law solely based on the fact that they reflect his personal morals. On topics where they don’t, he sees no reason to follow suit. This includes topics such as violence among consenting adults, the consumption of illegal substances as well as traffic violations. Michael has the potential to harm people but it will most likely never be because of cold hearted or profit oriented motives. Instead it will stem from passion, emotion or personal matter (The “Neutral” part that is still developing in his character) Background Story: Michael grew up in a two parent household in the eastern part of LS His mother was a stay-at-home while his father worked the docks He finished high school with subpar grades; never continued his educational career Started working at the docks right after his high school graduation Moved out of his parents house at the age of 19; 1st time confronted with living expenses Got into tattoo art as well as motorcycle riding (the latter was not affordable at the time) Inch by inch got himself more tattoos on his body and started to practice on himself Remained employed at the docks until the age of 21; Quit after that Everything from here on out is IC Found a position as trainee at the Alamo Tattoo Parlor Managed to afford his first motorcycle and got fully enveloped in this hobby Found a second interest in fishing (and water motorcycles aka Jets) Got bored due to the isolation of Sandy Shores Met a couple guys from the Devil's Bastards Motorcycle Club in Cypress Flats, East LS Found a more challenging trainee position at the Mirror Park Tattoo Parlor Decided to pack his bags and move out to El Burro Heights Rest is happening IC and will be documented by screenshots

  6. Here is an image as an example of how meta the RP gets bend at times. I am just wondering - how far do we go? Should GTA:SA exist in GTA5 when in RP it should propably be just normal history and not a game? This also ties in with the question as to how much of our RL components should be part of the world we portray. We wouldn't Roleplay Heineken beverages or other RL brands if this would be a Lord of the Rings setting. So why is it acceptable to use RL brands in this setting? It's still it's own world with it's own lore brand and productwise. Just because Lord of the Rings is a middle age setting that wouldn't make it right to speak about Game of Thrones topics within that world just because "it's middle age too!" or talk about RL middle age stuff like real world history. Give me your thoughts. P.S.: I didn't intend to put anyone on the blast over this. That's why I tried to anonymize the picture as much as possible.

  7. Nice Cars Finish Last Dale Manning & Los Santos Racing League At Saints Sports, we love seeing emerging new sports take the county by storm, and that's exactly what Dale Manning plans to do by introducing the 'Los Santos Racing League'. Rally sports have a rocky history in Los Santos, marred with low turnouts, difficult relationships with officials, and controversial issues arising from road closures and so on. None of these issues, however, concerned Dale Manning, who was absolutely certain of his capability to prove the hearts and minds of Los Santos wrong about the sport. Brushed with an air of optimism and confidence, it was time to delve into the minds of the masterminds behind the league. Deep into the wilderness of Blaine County, on roads that felt like a race in their own right, we found the haphazard base of operations for the league, and we spoke to Manning to discover more about his plans and the sport itself. Without further ado... So tell me a little how it works, are you all racing at the same time or one at a time? So what we are trying to establish is the Racing League of San Andreas. We want to primarily focus on concrete racing, but that is difficult. There aren't many locations and we aren't known on the scene yet, so for our first event, we chose to use a well-established rally stage. WIth one vehicle at a time. This has plenty of opportunities for us to prove we know how to handle an event like this, and hopefully build up some trust and reputation with drivers, emergency services and spectators. [You win] by having the best time on the clock, and we will have staff located throughout the site, and the track to ensure a smooth process for the evening. While we have big plans, at first, we need to prove who we are. So this is a test for you as much as it is the drivers? I think we are considering it as a test, yes. We know that this type of event has been clouded with mediocrity before. Not that I wish to speak ill of any other motorsport organisers. For the police, in particular, they haven't been impressed by previous organisers. And that has definitely come across during our application process. So we know that this is a test for us. And that is how we are treating it. So how did you convince them, what made you different? By being honest, open and professional. Maintaining good contact with all parties involved. The LSFD, LSPD, City Hall. Giving enough notice as well. We started the application process for this event over two weeks ago. More excitingly, what can spectators expect on Sunday? So what I hope for spectators they can see an event which is truly unique. That strikes with auto fans across the county. So the fee for drivers is for $5000. That covers us dealing with their safety work, installing a roll cage if the vehicle needs it and should give them at minimum three goes at the track as well as some practice time. For spectators, we are anticipating a price of around $2000 but we're going to see if we can push that down, The issue being we have to hire alot of staff to man this event.

  9. Can't you just /togtyping and forget the feature even exists? Why is this a big deal for you? Why can't you be seen typing? This is what Vash asked, and what is lacking in the suggestion.

  12. Yay for more ULSA characters! ? My character only met ONE other student on campus in 6-7 ooc months. She's graduated now, but would have been super jealous of Nessa's super rich parents.

  16. I understand the issue with my suggestion. But for reference: I roleplayed in the tattoo parlor from 5pm servertime to around 8pm server time. I did one whole arm tattoo, one smaller chest tattoo and a tattoo removal. My earnings? 1650$ . And thats only because @Hal was generous and paid 1000$ out of the system. Removals apparently dont pay the employee. 1650$ (if it was up to the system 650$) for 3 hours? Thats not a incentive to roleplay a job. If if wasnt for me doing it out of character development, i wouldnt bother with it at all. So while I may not have provided the right solution, I at least hope the issue is understandable. Im not trying to get vinewood / mirror park rich from inking skin. But ~550$ per RL hour is not good. And I bet a 24/7 employee makes even less. EDIT: And if you think I excessively RPed everything out - I didn't. I try to keep things detailed but only to the point where it remains fun for people. I see no point in cuffing people to a tattoo parlor for 4 hours because I want to be "hardcore" and rp every lining I do. I value my fellow players time.

  18. I just take it for what it is. A backpack costs $2,000 because it costs $2,000 -- I don't have to make sense of it, the same way that I don't have to make sense of why asparagus costs $7/lbs at my local downtown grocer vs. $3/lbs at a major chain store. I have a good idea as to why there's such a fluctuation of prices, but the price itself will never 'make sense', because I simply go with either what's cheapest, or what's most accessible in any given moment, depending on my mood of day, and my 'understanding' it doesn't change the price at all. So much discussion generates around notions of prices being 'absurd' in our in-game economy but the baseline for what we consider 'absurd' about these prices is determined by what we know in real-life: we tend to ignore that the income we generate in-game would also be flatly ridiculous, but most people aren't too concerned about reducing income levels as they are about 'exorbitant prices'. There is no 'real-life' to look towards for our characters to establish an example -- there is only the world they inhabit. What is it that they are comparing it to? In that respect, the complaints are wholly our own, and don't affect our characters at all; it's only affecting us because we allow it to. Some people will take the money they make at face value. Others (such as myself) are more interested in cultivating an 'appearance' we believe firmly establishes our characters as being part of a certain wealth bracket. I know that, realistically, my character isn't actually making $30,000~ a week as a police officer: somebody who thinks they are are no more right or wrong than I am; I'm the one who made a decision, and they are not breaching any server rules. Yet ultimately, whether you're taking it at face or contorting to fit a mold, you'll still be paying $2,000 for a backpack, $500 to enter a club, et al. You'll still have to conform to the prices of the server. As an anecdotal example, Grade A maple syrup for me (in Canada) costs about $7 a liter. In Europe, the price is somewhere closer to $35~ (taking the Euro $ exchange rate into account) per liter. To me, that seems absurd. But they aren't out there arguing that maple syrup is 'too expensive'. For Europeans, that's just the price of maple syrup. TL;DR Do what you want, try to be consistent about it.

  20. Pretty sure the majority of drugs flow through drug suppliers, which go through a process with FM. There's no concept of an "official" faction, just suppliers - typically there's a single supplier per faction. Any faction you interact with, at least the ones which are scripted, generally will have some sort of supplier.

  24. Is there any way to request delete char? Cause I created a character with a wrong skin because when I was trying to pick the skin it won't change for some reason. And accidentally waste my money on surgery while trying to change my skin again while I was supposed to just go /buyskin in a clothing shop.

  25. *Nessa would be seen typing away at a blog journal entry on her laptop, other tabs on the internet browser would should links to the ULSA website and a music player where Alternative rock music would be blasting in her room.* "Welp.. Tomorrow is the day I finally move off to Los Santos, I got accepted to transfer to ULSA for my nutrition degree which is fucking sick.. But i'm pretty nervous. I'm not very good at socializing or really making any sort of friends out side of the internet. Isn't Los Santos known for like pretentious models and celebrities? I don't think i'll fit in, but I should have a more positive outlook I guess. Both my parents are super excited for me, but i'm sure they're also sad that i'll be moving, right? On a positive note I got a sick new mount in a video game I been playing, super excited about that.. I'm rambling cause i'm trying to avoid the panic attack I can feel coming along.. Anyways I should probably head to sleep since I have a early morning flight. " Peace out! Signed, Quix" *Nessa would shut her laptop shortly after, letting out a sigh and crossing her legs. Resting her head atop her knees and hands places on her head. She would began to start doing some heavy breathing in attempts to calm her anxiety. Her bedroom door would open shortly after, her mother would appear. She would kneel down and rest her arms on the bed.* This is my mom, she is fucking awesome. Both of my parents are super cool, my dad is more of the goofy nerdy one where as my mom is too, but she hides it better behind her calm and collected expressions. My mom says they met each other on a college campus, but I found out the truth from my dad.. They met at a friends house to play Dungeon and Dragons. Anyways.. My mom is the best with her words, she knew I was freaking out about moving and she sat with me that night and kept me cool, we ended up talking about Woodstock and zombies for most of the night, it was rad. *The clock would strike 4:30AM, Nessa and her parents would pack the mini van up and head to the Toronto airport. 80s rock music would be playing from their car radio. Nessa would be quiet most of the drive, biting her nails and staring out the car window.* Saying goodbye to my parents was way harder than I expected, it was easier to say bye to my friends than it was them. My parents are like my best friends. Spoiler: We still talk on the phone every day. But back to the story.. We all tried to keep it tough when saying bye, but I was the first to crack and starting crying, my dad made fun of me for it before him and my mom both started to cry as well. It was funny now that I think about it. *Nessa sits on her flight with her headphones blasting her favorite acoustic albums. She heard two boys talking about one of her favorite games as she was switching songs on her phone, however wouldn't have the confidence to join in on their conversation. She spends the flight playing mobile games and eating some granola she packed in her backpack.* I finally arrived to Los Santos, and boy do I regret wearing all long sleeves instantly. However it's officially day 1 of my adventure here, I feel like a level 1 noob who has no idea where to go for their first quest. I waited outside for a taxi and once finally catching out I set out to the ULSA campus. *Nessa sits in the back of a taxi cab, the elderly woman driving the cab would be playing country music from the 1940s. Nessa texted her parents about her arrival and even sent a selfie in the back of the taxi cab. Once they arrived to the campus Nessa tipped the driver and exited. Spending some time staring intimidated at the large school campus.* Well I finally made it. I checked into my dorm and dropped all my bags there. I explored campus shortly after and got a bite to eat at the cafeteria. I can't help but feel a sense of determination here. I am excited now for what my future holds here in Los Santos.

  29. Can I suggest something in the meanwhile? If enough people do this to enough people this could sort itself out in due time. Just a suggestion. Sometimes it's the simple things.
