Feature Showcase: Forensic Firearm Investigation Introduction Forensic Firearm Investigation is a new system that aims to give a fresh and realistic look at Firearms. The key objectives are to give immersion to various Crime Scenes and boost detective/investigative type of roleplay. New additions that this update include are Spent Cartridges/Shell Casings and an Investigation Lab. Shell Casings / Spent Cartridges Upon firing a weapon you will now notice that a spent cartridge is left behind. If you are near one (or more) you can press Y which brings up an interaction menu that lists you the closest shell casings to your position. Upon choosing one from the list you are greeted with a couple of options. You can choose to either examine (1) it or pick it up (2). Examining a Shell Casing (1) If you choose to examine a Shell Casing, a message sent to you revealing some details regarding this specific Spent Cartridge. There are two pieces of information which would be of interest to you. Those are the Temperature and the Condition of the casing. The temperature value starts from around 370°C (~700°F) and drop down to environment temperature (which you get via /weather) at a decreasing rate. The whole process takes around 5 minutes which gives you a nice window to time events and so forth. On the other hand, there are four (4) different levels of condition. A shell casing can be Trashed, Severely damaged, Good or Excellent which is internally randomized whenever a round is fired thus a casing is dropped onto the ground and plays a huge role in the examination part of the system which is covered later down below. Picking one up (2) Dropped Shell Casings have a "lifetime" of two hours, they get automatically deleted if no-one picks them up within that window and are not stored in the database. They can be picked up anyone and is suggested that you do if you wish to avoid the Law's attention. Trying to use one (via /useitem) will display the condition, the cartridge type but not the temperature. Trying to use one as a LEO gives you an extra field called Label in which you can populate with some text and as you can see, it is now considered an Evidence Bag. It is expected that you roleplay picking and bagging them up when you do so. The Lab The Forensic Laboratory is a facility where Shell Casings are brought to for Analysis. By entering the premises and pressing Y, once again you are greeted with an interaction menu. Preliminary Examination Most notable at this point is the "Turn In Shell Casings" option. Upon selection, it runs a process that goes through your inventory items and extracts all the shell casings out of it. The Lab Personnel would then proceed and run a preliminary examination for each of the casings that you've just brought in that determines whether or not an Evidence Bag will be kept for further examination and long term storage. For a Shell Casing to be stored and be further examined, it needs to have a satisfactory condition and the cartridge must have been fired from a non-police-issued firearm. The second constraint is straight forward but as for the condition it goes as following: If a Shell Casing's condition is label as Trashed then it instantly gets discarded. If it is labeled as Severely damaged then there is around 75% chance to be discarded. If it is labeled either Good or Excellent then it is kept for further examination and long term storage. The Evidence Bags that are kept, they are assigned an ID and can be previewed using the /casing command or using the Mobile Data Computer. MDC Shell Casings Evidence Bags The Command Explanation option displays you a short help text related to the /casing command, the command functions are also explained in detail within this thread further down below. The Help Page option directs you to this page. Further Examination After a Shell Casing (effectively an Evidence Bag by now) finally goes through the submitting process the Lab immediately starts examining the Spent Cartridge for unique striations and markings. This process effectively takes ~40 minutes for a Shell Casing to complete. Keep in mind that the quality of the casing influences both the time needed to yield results and the amount of Evidence Bags/Casings needed in order to get a positive match. After the examination the Evidence Bag becomes available for checking/matching against seized weapons or Serial IDs. Effectively it comes down to a routine where everyone collects evidence, labels them and passes them onto the Lab for processing. Then when a weapon is seized from a suspect that in turn gets passed onto the Lab to match against all the processed casings and see if there's any matches. Here are two examples, one of a positive match and the opposite. If there are more than 10 casings relating to a specific firearm then you are prompted with expand option. The expand option would list the evidence bags like this Command For simplicity, all "commands" related to this system all fall under one command in a form of a tree. You can see the various "sub-options" and their corresponding actions below. Extra An additional /examinecasings command has been added to address the issue where there are multiple interactable dropped objects around you along with the casings while pressing the Y button to interact with them. The mentioned command works uniquely with the shell casings and brings up only the appropriate menu.

The Dog Town Gangsters (DTG)1 is primarily, but not exclusively, a multi-generational, homegrown Hispanic street gang in the northern part of Rancho. They are primarily located on McDonald Street and Roy Lowenstein Boulevard, spreading to surrounding blocks. Although some of its members live in other parts of town, most grew up together in that particular neighborhood. As most seasoned members from the late '80s and early '90s were either incarcerated or had passed away in gang-related retaliation, the new generation is now on the verge of new beginnings with barely any guidance to build a structure around the gang itself. An increase of illegal criminal activity has skyrocketed within the Rancho neighborhood as an ongoing feud between rival gangs spiraled within close vicinity of each other. One of the most notable rivalries that have been documented is between the Dog Town Gangsters and the Rancho Tokers. It's known that they don't associate themselves as being under the 13 moniker unlike most Hispanic street-gangs and they are known to only associate with Sureños when behind bars. There are different theories on how the name of this gang came about since, at the time of its conception, many of the gangs were named after the streets within their respective neighborhoods. The Dog Town Gangsters were among the first Hispanic street-gangs to originate from the neighborhoods of South Central Los Santos. They refused to adopt the Sureño moniker in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In the 1980s, the Dog Town Gang controversially dropped the requirement of being Mexican American in order to get jumped in. The gang heavily recruited Central American migrants and war refugees from the Northern Triangle countries during this decade. Additionally, Mexican immigrants were recruited. In the neighborhoods of South Central Los Santos, it became relatively common to see white teenagers actively gang-banging for the Dog Town Gang. Members have been continuously active in Los Santos throughout their 20+ year-long history. They have traditionally sourced their income from narcotic distribution and gun-running, and have been heavily involved with turf wars between various Sureños, 18th Street, and all neighboring Crips and Bloods. In modern times, the Dog Town Gangsters consist of a small number of members, ranging from their early teens to their mid-twenties. The gang's recent activities around their neighborhood the past few years have established them as a gang with a dominant but small presence in its area. Dog Town is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Los Santos and it gained its name because of its proximity to the historic McDonald Street Animal Shelter whose canine residents could be heard for blocks around. Residents also coined the phrase due to a large population of stray dogs dating from the early 1980s. During the mid-'80s, members of the earlier generation of the Dog Town Gangsters would take some of these dogs to the neighborhood kennel where Maria Aguilar; a high ranking Dog Town Gangster members' mother would adopt them and breed them at her residence. It's rumored that Aguilar would sell these newly bred dogs to certain residents in the Rancho neighborhood for quick cash. Most of these residents would be members of the Dog Town Gangsters which is the cause of several reports during that time of members walking around the neighborhood with groups of pit-bulls. They would sometimes use these dogs against members of rival street-gangs and command them to chase them down and attack them as a second resort to shooting or beating them. As of 2020, the street gang has seen a steady growth of new members and even some sympathy and open support from residents of Rancho. Most new members of the street gang who have become known to the police through surveillance and arrests are between the ages of 16 and 20. The street gang, unlike many others within the neighborhood, seems to have a higher interest in recruiting young men and young women who are in their late teens and early 20s rather than youths who are still in childhood or early adolescence. It stands to reason that the street gang, through recruiting this relatively older age cohort, are looking for more experienced and hardened criminals to join their rank. Eighty percent of the set's current members are the nephews, nieces and cousins of former, retired, deceased and currently incarcerated Dog Town Gangsters members who gang-banged throughout the 1980s, 1990s and early to late 2000s. Dog Town Gangsters aren't to be confused with neighboring hoods such as the Jamestown Mafia whose one of the biggest known gangs in the area who occupy the Southside of Rancho whereas the Dog Town Gangsters occupy the Northside of Rancho. The two things these gangs share in common is their refusal to pay taxes to the Mexican Mafia and adopt the 13 moniker. In the earliest years of the set's existence, they rapidly recruited from the Hispanic American minority in the neighborhood while engaged in violent street warfare with the Rancho Tokers, a better established Sureño street gang in the locale. It's known to residents that this has been an on-and-off rivalry throughout the years due to both gangs being extremely territorial and sharing the same neighborhood. In recent years, the Rancho Tokers aren't as active as they used to be therefore there's been a huge spike in the Dog Town Gangsters' criminal activity within the area. They are known to sport apparel by the Oakland Raiders (formerly known as the Los Angeles Raiders). Members of the Dog Town Gangsters also adopted apparel by the Greenbay Packers as their symbol and are known to sport green & black as their primary color(s). In the mid-2000s, the street gang saw an increase in activity as local African American youths joined for protection in order to avoid harassment, physical assaults, robberies, and murder by the local Latino American populace, a little under half of whom were members of the Rancho Tokers or the Locotes. This increase in local African American youths joining for protection has steadily picked up the pace once again, especially throughout a five year period from late 2012 and into early 2020. Therefore, it isn't uncommon to spot African American individuals representing Dog Town Gangsters as fully-fledged members. The Dog Town Gangsters recruit new members through family relations to past members or through finding troubled adolescents and young adults in local schools or out in the streets. Members of the Dog Town Gang source their illegal revenue from crime such as drug dealing, gun dealing and the extortion of small family-owned businesses in South Central Los Santos. Some of the senior members have overseen the fraud and money laundering activities of the set over the decades, especially when the set was a lot larger than it is today. Small businesses within Rancho were always used for crime. The sale of hard drugs happens in all small businesses in the neighborhood and the small business owners are extorted into allowing this to happen. In the past, small business owners who refused to comply were always threatened with extreme violence and/or death. Nowadays, this isn't as prevalent ever since the introduction of social media platforms. Taboo crimes such as rape and sexual assault are prohibited by the set. Members of the Dog Town Gangsters throughout its over twenty-year-long history who have been found out to be rapists or sexual assailants have been killed through being beaten, stabbed or shot. However, there are no rules against the verbal and physical abuse of girls and young women. Girls and young women who are recruited into the set either do so at their own will or are often coerced through psychological manipulation and/or verbal and physical abuse. Girls and young women in the set and outside of it who date boys and young men from the set are the victims of routine abuse and domestic violence, which is often publicly perpetrated without any intervention on behalf of their own personal safety and well being. In the past and present, members of the Dog Town Gangsters who have accidentally killed innocent women and children in walk-up shootings and drive-by shootings have been disciplined by fellow gang-members as part of the set's rule against criminal violence towards innocent women and children. The only members of the Dog Town Gangsters who are allowed to murder rivals who are adolescent girls and young women are adolescent girls and young women from within the set themselves.

Wagwarn my people, This is my plan if father Keane shows mercy on a young boy. So I'm gonna create a relatively older character, with that character I'm going to merge some pre-existing short essays, and I'll be writing some new stuff on the question of truth, the line between fact and fiction and mans subjective nature on the matter. This will be my founding entry as the character, my first bit of work. From there I want to start a newspaper consisting of stories and public entries. This newspaper will be completely free domain and anyone is free to write for it. Once I start to find my feet I'll delve into a more progressive career, my goal is to form socialist infrastructure in the government. My main goal by the summer is to be the main support in the creation of a government-funded education system and health care system, including high school and university. This, of course, is something that would take a lot of planning and work however something completely achievable. If we can achieve non-NPC gained qualifications I feel like it will highly benefit and realize the progression of development for characters in the city. Whether this is something that is OOCly supported or not, is completely irrelevant to what I will do. People naturally will bring up the issue of the player base and the characters that make up the player base, and that is all well and fine because it's an obvious concern. Regardless of what the OOC matter is, it should be something we have IC and through taxation, we definitely have the means to make it happen. I really want to see more government interaction with the general player base, throughout my entire time here I've not seen any major changes to the way the lives of the characters in the city are affected by the government, not to say that there aren't any. With that being said, I feel like it's time for there to start being changes and for there to be development in the matter, making the government more than just a gateway for semi-political RP. My idea for the education system goes as such; High school, high school lasts 8 weeks, consisting of 5 classes a week. The high school would employ roughly 10 teachers, meaning there are 10 subjects in the school. For example; Maths, English, History, Geography, Interactive Digital Design, Film and Media Production, and a variety of other subjects that would be discussed ICly to create subjects with the most benefit to the people of the city. The classes are compulsory, each student must assign a range of time where they are free during the week to attend these classes, this will be aligned to support the entire school. There would be 5 classes a week consisting of curriculum-based teaching and learning, each week there is an assignment for the following week that is emailed to the subject teacher. The subject teacher marks the assignment with a unit grade, which is then added up to the final week. The final week would be a week of examination. The student will be faced with an examination of their subject(s). The examination grade makes for 75% of the final grade, the unit grades making up for the rest. Student 1 chooses to do one subject, History. He completes the course receiving an A throughout each assignment and a B in his exam, he finishes with an A. That final A makes 60 points. Student 2 chooses to do 4 subjects, History, Geography, English, Maths. For his assignments he achieves, A, B, B, C and for his exams he achieves C, A, C, A. His final grade comes out at A, A, B, A, Adding up to 210 points. University, university lasts 12 weeks, the structure is similar to high school except the courses are less intensive. There are two weekly assignments for each subject and there is only one lecture per subject per week. The subjects are more profound and require more effort. To apply for a course you must hold the correct amount of points for the subject. For example, philosophy would require 90 points achieved in literature and humanity based subjects. The degrees obtained by university and diplomas from high school are government recognized meaning if you intend to apply for a job in any government institution you may require a qualification gained through either high school or university. -- Separate to all of this, I will definitely push to look more into government spending with tax money. When I played Leonardo Nervetti I was paying up to $600 per cycle in tax, and I know for a fact there where many people richer than me who was paying more, this leads me to believe that there is most likely a lot of money in the government treasury that is not being used. If this is the case, I think there are a lot of jobs that can be created with the creation of government-funded or owned institutions. For example, media companies, including news, film, and TV, all funded by the government. This is due for much more development through the coming months, giving that I'm unbanned, if I am, then hopefully this becomes something. To be completely honest I might get bored and decide to play another less academic character, but I think I could really stick with this. All depends. Thanks lol if u read this then you're a champ.

This thread won't be for Koreans only tho, this thread is open to everyone who wishes to RP in Little Seoul :=)

Oh, lots of questions to answer, I will do my best to answer them all! 1 & 2: Text-based Light-RP servers are never something I've really delved into, so I will have to take your word for that one. I can't really answer the question further than that. 3: Stricter rules, well it depends on what rules, but as an example, more cracking down on people ass-pulling AKs, can be one example of it. Metagaming having a clearer and a severer consequence, in certain RP servers using discord voice-chats to coordinate and attacks and so on is allowed, but here, we have a stricter rule policy against such things. 4. Some Medium RP servers, I've seen lose punishments on Powergaming, as an example - *John Doe throws Jane Doe into the trunk of his car and shuts it. On some Medium RP servers even as this is a great example of power gaming on John's part, and even if he continues doing this repeatedly at worst he will get an A-jail, not saying all, but some servers do have this way of dealing out punishments. 5. High and Heavy standards are one and the same, it means that the standards put on players are well high, these standards are often followed with a greater trust of players as well. Players are expected to follow and know the rules and definitions of terms such as metagaming, powergaming, etc, etc. Not just that, but they are also expected to be able to properly roleplay fear and things as such in an appropriate and believable fashion. 6. Medium Roleplay servers almost always tend to have some players that barely know the rules, and roleplay as such, often poor character portrayal and things of that nature, but they also often have some really fantastic roleplayers, that do all of these things above and beyond. As my mention to where on certain servers/communities there are areas of their maps where nobody goes because they know it is just going to be a DM-fest. 7. Of course, you can, but it's often rare because if you enforce them to the same extent you do on heavy-RP servers, the population tends to dry up rather quickly. 8. Heavy RP does not HAVE to be realistic, but often cases it is. I mean, there are some great Heavy-RP StarWars servers and communities as one example. More often than not though, these heavy-RP servers are attempts of recreating a society similar to what we have In-real-life, GTA-W is an example of this. It can never truly be 1:1 realism because most people do not enjoy RPing paying taxes and things of that nature. 9. Good roleplay is of course not objective, it is really depending on the person. Detailed RP has a place and a time, and in certain aspects, detailed RP can be better than none detailed RP, but then there is pointless detail, like people writing a 1000 character word /Me for simply taking a sip of their drink. Good RP, in my opinion, is a well-developed character, someone that you could believably see in-real-life, and someone whose actions you can logically explain, this, of course, mixed in with proper usage of /Me's, /do's and /my's in the mix. There are some fantastic examples of people with roleplay such as this here on GTA-W. Hopefully that gives you some insight into what I meant, if not, feel free to just ask me again, I am more than happy to respond!

this one I can answer easily - the quality of roleplay done by a player is defined by their capability of making the character realistic. For example, being unrealistic is something like having a lacking backstory with lack of explanation behind having so much assets at a young age - 18-28. Creating a character to buy a fancy car and be a rich young person is easy sure, but it's not really considered to be quality role-play without first showing a decent effort put into it's backstory or in it's build up. Another example is 'I became rich by mining.' sure, it pays but it's hardly qualitative or realistic. A realistic and qualitative way of RP'ing would include your characters backstory, the characters flaws like good and bad traits which should be developed either through actual RP or through a decent backstory that has valid reasoning for it.. for GTA:World a big thing would be how the character has come by so many assets if that's the case and so on. Quality roleplay = realistic thinking, common sense, rule abiding and sadly but honestly true, general understanding and capability to type in the servers chosen language. Short /me's can often be just as good as long /me's. They don't make any such difference. Detail looks great but I could just as well make an RP using a toilet out of a /me followed by 4 /do extensions look worse than a few short /me's. It's generally a preference really. I personally mix and match depending on the events going on in my characters presence. It's a really great question tbh, hope my answer was good for you!

LS is an off brand LA. I still RP like its LA, I don't give a fuck. I'm not limiting myself in terms of roleplay. The type of people that RP LS like LS are the very same people that think LS has a total population of 500 people at one time, and anything outside of LS doesn't exist.
