THE END OF AN ERA

Matthew 24:10-11 И тада ће се многи саблазнити, и друг друга издаће, и омрзнуће друг на друга. И изићи ће многи лажни пророци и превариће многе. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.

WHERE ROADS END

Update 1.8.8 Additions Added a new tutorial for new players, explaining our server basic features & rules. We also wanted to prevent new players from becoming truckers as it was disturbing everyone's roleplay, they will now be redirected to the farming job to slowly discover our server without disturbing others. Added a new job, aimed at new players : farming job The farming job is also limited, if you have more than $450 000 in assets you'll not be paid for it, same as fishing & garbage jobs. The unemployment office has been removed from the airport The Arcadius Center is now hosting the job fair (former unemployment office) Changes Trucking is now requiring at least 10 hours on your character before you can use /startshipment, to avoid new players using it without being trained to roleplay on the server Rented trucks will now be limited to 70 MPH as too many truckers were just rushing to their deliveries as fast as possible. We trust truckers hired in a company to roleplay more realistically, if not we'll need to enforce speed limits and more drastic measures on all truckers Rented vehicles (Blista, Ingot, Asbo) are now limited to 50 MPH Removed "sell ores" from the factories Fixes Jewelry store will now properly counts each active roleplay minutes for your roleplay shift FD will not be able to heal dead players anymore Fixed a bug prevent players from taking their driving test Fixed a bug allowing players to still receive their paychecks after using /changechar

DA Saeko Nishijima shows off her book collection. The People of Los Santos District Attorney - Saeko Nishijima Elizabeth Rankin The District Attorney - known by much of the law-enforcement and law-breaking communities of Los Santos. This week in 'People of Los Santos', we try to crack the exterior shell of the DA and discover the person that lies behind the endless piles of paperwork. Nestled deeply in Vinewood Hills, I approached the lavish home with some degree of caution - after all, if there is one type of person that a journalist is truly scared of, it's a lawyer. Perhaps unexpectedly, the District Attorney - Saeko Nishijima was dressed down and, aided by her assistant, welcomed me into her home. We briefly talked about her interests - an avid reader and a big 'car' person, already the façade I expected of the lawyer had crumbled. In the urgency of breaking the ice, I began by asking Saeko about her life. ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ Well, I'm an immigrant from Tokyo, who followed in her father's footsteps. I was around 10 when he died, and my mom and I had to move to America. He was a lawyer, too. Ended up growing up wanting to fill his shoes. I was a precocious little thing. Babyproofing didn't do a damn thing. I got my smarts from both parents. Dad was, like I said, a lawyer. Mom was a financier until she left that to stay at home with me. Japanese culture is very...Conformist. So a lot of my childhood is basically going to sound like every other kid in that country. A heavy focus on education, with what little time we had away from it on small in-country vacations. My family was wealthy, but they didn't flaunt it. Anyway, everything kind of shifted when I was ten. There was something of a scandal and my father didn't exactly make it through it all. My mom and I basically had to flee the country because of it, his name was too well known for us to live normally at that point. So we headed to the good old USA. From 10 to college, I lived in San Fierro. And let me tell you, that's a hell of a town. Saeko and I laughed - I had formerly lived near San Fierro myself, so it was good to have someone to share the frustration of the cities' cable cars with. A quick nod towards Saeko's current ZIP code taught me everything I needed to know about her wealth. She stopped me - reassuring me that she, indeed, was once 'normal', with most of her families money spent on the immigration process, forcing what was left of her family to nestle in Chinatown - for those of you that don't know San Fierro, be assured that it isn't a cheap city to live in. But once we were here, things were mostly calm. Mom managed to get a job with a financial firm. Kept us mostly afloat. I did odd jobs around the neighborhood when I wasn't studying; the culture shock hadn't really set in, so I was still spending most of my time buried in education books. We got lucky when mom's firm ended up breaking an IPO. Stayed in our apartment, but I ended up having a college fund for when I did decide to take that plunge. Oh yes. Even if my roots had carried, and I'm thankful they didn't, I'd have been a hard worker. Even in Chinatown, it was still very different [To Japan]. I had more freedom. I interjected - asking if she thought her position in life now was down to her wealthy childhood; I think so. Quite honestly, I probably wouldn't be in this line of work had I not been born into what I was. I probably wouldn't even be in this country. I will say, though. There were hardships. Then - I got lucky, was accepted to Vespucci University in Liberty City. One of the best schools in the country, at least for the law. Met my first love there, too. Unfortunately, we went our separate ways at graduation. I had a job offer here. A face of sadness washed over Saeko's face for a moment, she continued; and his major meant he was going to end up spending most of his time in Europe, both of us figured it'd be better to focus on where our lives could advance, as opposed to either of us following the other without their passion. Satisfied with the origin story - I extended my metaphorical dagger, asking her of her biggest regret in life. She offers a clearly strained smile, thinking back to her childhood, as she began to speak; Probably - not saying goodbye to my father when I'd had the chance. The biggest regrets in my life all stem from that time when I was a child. I felt responsible for what had happened, even though now I know it wasn't anything to do with me. She continued, albeit at this point, the moment felt a lot more sombre and the words became much more emotionally charged. My dad was a - rather important prosecutor in Tokyo. He worked in the high court. Unfortunately, in the late 80s and early 90s, scandals involving confessions being coerced from people being held by police and prosecutors were coming out left and right. The entire country had basically come out to hate everything the justice system stood for, which led to reforms. But on the heels of it all, my dad was revealed to be part of a confession scandal that got the wrong person convicted of a double murder. So he left for the office one last time, and - Well. He hung himself in his office. My mother and I had had no idea. The news broke, and then he just - never came home. Like I've said before, Japan is very...Conformist. What one does brings shame upon the family. My mother and I were outcast - and that's what led us to the states. So yeah. My biggest regret is not having been able to say a proper goodbye to my father. Finally - I asked Saeko what she wished people knew about her. Of course. Thank you for taking the time with me. I appreciate it. It's good to be able to talk it all out. I guess I just wish people know that I'm a person. Obviously I'm a public figure. But as cliche as it sounds, underneath I'm still someone who has emotions. I know people tend to see us as just paper pushers that handle things the police throw them. But for me, Mr Hyde here, and everybody else at the DA office? We bleed the same as everybody else. Conducted and written by Elizabeth Rankin on behalf of LSNN.

Overview _________________________________________________________________________________________________ Bridge Street is located within the Vinewood neighbourhood of Los Santos. The neighbourhood, originally a middle class white neighbourhood, has since turned into a home for violent street gangs with an influx of African Americans and Hispanics in the 40's. The demographics of the neighbourhood took a quick turn from predominantly white to predominately Hispanic. With this influx came the rise of many street gangs claiming territory in the neighbourhood. Conflict arose and street gangs found themselves in a constant battle for territory—fighting in the parking lots, alleyways, and streets of Vinewood. Leading into the 50's, a street gang known as Los Gangsters or simply the Gangsters sprung up and quickly found themselves in control of the area, standing toe to toe with other large street gangs. In modern times, a well known clique referred to themselves as the La Puente. The gang, smaller than numbers than similar cliques, were known for their criminal activity and violence. Only in recent years have the LP became defunct and dissolved from the Vinewood Area. As a result, numerous smaller street gangs have sprung up in the area, each looking to control the neighbourhood the now defunct-LP had once controlled. In the midst of this is the community in the Vinewood neighbourhood. Kids find themselves pressured by gang violence and drug use. Innocent people find themselves as victim of the resulting violence. Residents witness the violence brought by street gangs on a daily basis, yet don't report it to local authorities out of fear of the neighbourhood's street gangs. In the more recent years, a small clique of Hispanics have cliqued together using the history of the La Puente influence to base their actions. Once again Bridge Street is becoming a crime hotspot, break-ins, car theft and drug dealing are becoming all too common in the area. Police presence has increased in the area to combat the growing crime statistics in an effort to reduce them, the group have for the most kept under the radar save two affiliates. Mara Por Vida _________________________________________________________________________________________________ “The greatest tragedy in these cases is that these young victims likely left their homelands hopeful that in the United States they would find safety and prosperity,” Los Angeles County District Attorney Jackie Lacey said. “Instead, these victims had the misfortune of crossing paths with violent gang members who preyed on the vulnerabilities of their immigrant experience. BSLS13 originated on the Bridge Street district in Eastern Vinewood. They were originally a small group of Hispanics looking to make a quick score, tensions in the area and constant lack of resources drove the young teens to form into the group known as "La Familia". The Familia opted to sell drugs, break into vehicles and other sources of income to be able to turn their lives from poverty stricken into something more. La Familia primarily consisted of 4-6 members initially but sources are scarce and vary given the Familias code of secrecy, some opting for life in Prison rather than talking. La Familia were one of the original multiracial, multi-ethnic gangs in the Los Santos area, composing of young Hispanic & Black teens. As the group grew, more and more violence was introduced in the Bridge Street area, garnering the attention of Local Police and Media alike. Slayings within the local park became common, with parents opting to take their children to Mirror Park to avoid the horrors that may await them come early mornings. As time went on, two figure heads grew from La Familia adopting several practices that were seen in other gangs elsewhere. 13, X3 and various other graffiti tying the area to the Mexican Mafia began to arise blasted across the walls, park benches and anything else that could be visible for the neighbourhood to see, it was official there was a new gang in the Bridge Street area and they were stating their claim. Following along from the X3 claim, more and more graffiti turned from the back street wash that was typically seen, to "Mara Salvatrucha Controla & Bridge Street Salvatruchos", it became evident the group had adopted a more sinister name, dubbing the area "5 Minute City", a homage to the life-span of anyone who would cross the gang. The letters set the gang apart from other gangs and criminal organizations. The letters are theirs and theirs alone. Building this loyalty is not easy and relies largely on creation of an enemy, a life-long foe around which the gang can coalesce. That foe is the Barrio 18 gang. The vilification of the Barrio 18 is now integrated into the recruiting and training of MS13 members. To enter the gang, many recruits are ordered to kill a “chavala,” roughly translated as “punk,” the MS13’s word for a rival gang member. It is also part of the indoctrination, mixed into the everyday language of its members, and at the top of its rulebook. MS13 members, for example, are not allowed to speak or write the word “eighteen.” The gang has used it to build its brand across two continents, and it may help us understand the durability of these two gangs more than any other single factor. But the obsession with the other gang has also pulled the MS13 to other end of the pendulum of criminal organizations: While some criminal groups focus on obtaining and developing reliable revenue streams, the MS13 is focused on developing new ways to undermine and destroy any other gang. Any action, discussion or reconciliation is suspicious, even traitorous, and will cause internal rifts. Notably, there is little mention of financial reward in the tasks and missions given to Bridge Street Affiliates, although it is clearly a factor and is difficult to separate from other motives – with money, for example, comes status and power – it does not appear to be the driving force. Being in a gang is not a job, nor do most members see it as such. As noted, members do not join because of the money. Although money can be a motivation, they understand that they are not entering a stable career path. Being in a gang is sometimes at the center of their lives, but sometimes it fades. Some are “calmados,” or semi-retired, and have at least one parallel social circle, such as an evangelical church, that demands at least as much if not more attention. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ OOC Info The plan is to roleplay around Bridge Street, East Vinewood as a predominately Hispanic community and develop into a street gang. The storyline is going to be completely in character and the street gang will be fictional based on whatever happens to the group in-character, how we form will be entirely focused from IC events. We believe in keeping in character events in character and out of character events out of character, if you're unable to distinguish the difference, this isn't the place for you. You don't need to be the best roleplayer as we incorporate any levels of roleplay capability & will guide you on your way. We have a Discord also, however you won't be invited until you're deemed active enough within the Faction, we don't want to be inviting everyone left right & centre.

Promises and Business.

Quickstart - A Beginners Guide Accurate as of version 1.8.8 The Basics First of all - welcome to GTA World! GTA World is a high-standards roleplaying server set in the GTA Universe in the city of Los Santos and the outer Los Santos area. Joining a new server can be daunting - especially when you don't really know what you're doing, where to go or how to go by doing pretty much anything. I was fortunate enough to meet someone early on in my time at GTA World, who had no qualms about showing me the ropes, the purpose of this guide is to provide that same support to you and get you accustomed to GTA World and the many, many opportunities it provides. Let's start with some commands. /b - This is used for local OOC, this can be used in too many cases to list here, generally use it to talk to other players as yourself, not as your character. /me - This is used to describe something that your character is doing, an example would be: /me looks around the room, sighing to herself before approaching the bar, which would be printed as: Elizabeth Rankin looks around the room, sighing to herself before approaching the bar. /do - This is used as an extension to /me or as a way to provide clarification out of character. For example, let's say our character, Elizabeth Rankin, has been hit by a car, and paramedics on the scene, to describe what they see, I would use: /do Elizabeth would appear severely injured, having been hit with some force, she'd currently be unconscious with a low heart rate. This would be printed as: Elizabeth would appear severely injured, having been hit with some force, she'd currently be unconscious with a low heart rate. (( Elizabeth Rankin )). /s - This is to make your character shout, perhaps they're showing anger or simply trying to get someone's attention. /low - This is used to make your character speak quietly, for example, in a private conversation, or simply just wanting to speak quieter. /w [ID or Name] - This is used to whisper exclusively to a character, be sure not to use this to powergame! /id [Firstname Lastname] - This is to gain the ID of a character, useful in many cases, one being whispering! /name [ID] - This is to get a characters name from their ID. Can also be used to get your own ID. /vget - Your car will appear where you last parked it, useful after a crash or after relogging to get to your car! /vpark - Your car will be parked and saved to the database, useful for logging off. (Abusing these commands is punishable, so be careful!) y (Not a command - a keypress) - Start your engine. l (Not a command - a keypress.) - Lock your car/property. /report - Stuck somewhere, or need an administrator to watch over some roleplay? Use /report. /helpme - Used for more general questions and enquiries, things that don't actively need an administrator. /changechar - Useful if you're bugged in some cases, or if you just want to switch to a different character without restarting. /help - A list of commands for a multitude of features. Other commands for individual features can be found using /help. They can also be found by this useful guide by @Nervous, located here! Getting Started Secondly - welcome to Los Santos! Los Santos in our little community is a thriving city with countless businesses, criminal organisations, a working government, active police, sheriff and fire department and endless opportunities. You will spawn at the airport, probably a bit confusing what to do next, right? Below I'll discuss my personal recommendation of your priorities fresh off of the plane in Los Santos. You will then be directed to take the tutorial. The tutorial is heavily recommended, this will teach you the basics of the server! The red circle, just across the road from where you start, allows you to rent a vehicle, be warned though, while you don't need a drivers license to drive a rental vehicle, driving like a maniac is frowned upon by both the local police departments and server staff alike. This is the menu you'll be presented with at the vehicle rental, pick your vehicle and we're ready to go! The tutorial will begin to walk you through the basics of the server, starting with getting your phone! What next? You don't have a phone! Phones are needed in order to respond to adverts looking for work or perhaps something you're interested in buying, keeping in touch with friends, and pretty much a requirement of all the player-jobs available in Los Santos. Once you arrive, you'll be presented with the following menu. More information on the Phone System can be found in this guide, published by @Westen, found here. After you buy your phone, you'll be directed to head towards the Vespucci Hub - this allows you to customise your character. Customisation With the standard GTA Online model, the customisation provided is certainly exciting. The Red Circle on the map is what I call the 'Customisation Corner' of the map, you can change your hair, your outfit, your face, your makeup, your tattoos, everything! Plastic Surgery We can all admit that some faces can look good in the customisation, but look a little... 'derpy' in practice. Head over to the Plastic Surgeon to get that amended. No, these aren't the same picture! Little differences can have a big effect on the standard camera. There's a very useful guide by @JoeWarner on changing your face, read it here! Clothing Store/Hair/Makeup Hair, makeup and clothes can be assigned to outfits, useful if you want to wear makeup with some outfits, but not others, or perhaps your character likes a good wig? Head into the Clothing Shop and you'll see something like this: You can customise everything about your outfit here, I recommend setting Shirt & Undershirt to 15 and your torso to 3, to avoid clipping, then choose your outfit over that. Picked an outfit? Good! You have 20 outfit slots to save it to, and you can switch between them at your car or your property (Within RP Reason, obviously) with /outfit. Please read this guide from @JoeWarner for more details about the clothing system, read that here! Hair is quite similar to how you developed the look of your character, with its own CEF menu, look below. Makeup is for boys, too! Blush can be used to add contour to both a male and female character's face, use it wisely and it acts as an addition to your characters face. Extra Customisation You can also set descriptions of your character for things not covered by the customisation feature - this could be in the form of the height of your character, the character's approximate age, even to the accent your character has. To add a new line to your characters' description, do /attributes, for example. /attributes Kalani would appear in her late twenties. To see your description, or to see another player's description, the command is; /examine [ID/Name]. Getting Your License If you're still following with us on the tutorial - you'll be directed to get your Drivers License. This can be skipped at this point, but you will need one to purchase a vehicle! As you can see, there are a few licenses to choose from (How exciting, right?), but for now, we're only focusing on the Drivers License. Click on "Driving License" to begin your test. Be sure to follow the traffic laws of the city, keep within the specified speed limit, stop at intersections, crossroads and turns and hopefully, you pass! Once you have passed your test, feel free to continue on with the tutorial - your next step along the tutorial is to the dealership - let's go look at some cars! Vehicles Why not buy your own vehicle? This is an exciting part, thanks to the Grand Theft Auto V base, the number of cars you can buy and the customisation you can do seems to be limitless - you can truly have one a kind if you wish, or you can live more within your means and have a bog-standard car, the choice is all yours! A comprehensive list of all vehicles currently available for sale and where they are sold is generously provided by @Ikechukwu, listed here! Look towards the Red Circle for the location of the cheapest vehicles - this will be directed to you on the tutorial via the GPS. You will receive $5000 an hour for your first 40 hours, for a total of $200,000. A lot of players use this to buy a car after a few hours or so. Once you find a car on the list that you're interested in, you'll see a preview of it and an option to buy it, seen below. Bought it? Good! Your car needs registering, though. Your vehicle won't spawn after you bought it, you'll need to spawn it in. This is done with /vget. Now, onto registering! New cars will spawn with insurance and registration on first purchase as long as you pay the full price on the dealership! If you haven't registered, or need to re-register/reinsure, this can be done at the Department of Motor Vehicles, you know where to look on the map at this point! NEW: You can call 205 to insure or register your car! (Thanks @Nervous!) Arrived at the DMV safely, without being pulled over for driving an unregistered or uninsured car? This is the menu you'll be presented with: You need to register your car to drive it legally. Insurance is compulsory, however, it'll really come in handy if your car gets destroyed, or you'll end up paying a hefty payout! More information on registration, tax and the DMV can be found in this helpful guide by @Ribsey and @Keane, this is found here. So you have your car, you have your license, you have a phone, you're ready to go! Jobs Jobs are great, right? It's how you make the money you need to buy the things you want in life. On the next stage of the tutorial, you'll be directed to the countryside - the home of the Los Santos Sheriffs Department, if you were to ever consider that as a career path! You'll be led to the Farmer job, and you can begin working straight away. The farming job is a great place to start. jobs are also offered by player businesses, this is either through advertisements (Keep an eye out for [Company Advertisement]) or by walking up to a store and picking up your apron and your customer service voice. These jobs are called store jobs, such as Ammunation, 24/7, Mask Shop and so on, read more about that here. Player to Player provided jobs have never been more plentiful, always keep an eye out on the ads! I need more money! You will receive $5000 an hour for your first 40 hours, for a total of $200,000. You will also receive a government grant for RPing in a store. What Next? Now, you enjoy yourself! Get immersed, get to business and meet people or go to a bar and make friends, this is a multiplayer game, right? Might as well immerse yourself into the community. Welcome to GTA World, the opportunities are again, endless, be who you want to be and more importantly, have fun! Happy Roleplaying!

It's not just an issue with security companies, but I'll keep it on point here. There are far too many people on this server who have zero issue with taking out a gun and killing people. It's a role play portrayal issue, first of all. Not everyone is Rambo or Terminator and a majority of people should want to steer clear from having to use a weapon, not just pull it out as a convenience. Second, I used to work armed security in real life at a bank, then at a private residence as personal security, then at a high profile club in South Beach, Miami. Using my firearm was a last resort when all other avenues failed and even then, it didn't happen very often. Our method of threat escalation was to always involve police as soon as necessary and keep yourself out of harms way if at all possible. Most of my armed security guards never end up shooting their weapon, it's just a method to deescalate the situation until police arrive. People don't understand the amount of scrutiny an armed security guard goes through if they end up actually firing their weapon and injuring/killing someone. The scrutiny is often higher than that of an actual police officer. It's usually not worth it and avoiding that last resort at all costs should be the goal. Here none of those outside factors exist so it's like a game of air soft, with zero repercussions to a security guard firing a weapon and killing someone. Definitely needs to be visited and addressed.

Habeeb Transport Union was established in 2015 originally, however, it has been operating in Los Santos since 2017, making it the longest running transit company of Los Santos to date. Originally based out of Mirror Park, the business has since moved to Grapeseed, where it continues to run, ferrying customers across Los Santos on a day to day basis. Our story begins with the city of Los Santos begins in October of 2017, where Rafi Habeeb and his trusted right hand man Shoaib Tariq moved to 1251 Mirror Place. Soon to be joined by another acquaintance, Shahid Tariq, the newfound company would come to dominate the transit industry. We at Habeeb Transport Union have run various services for transit across Los Santos. Our origins start humble with Habeeb Taxi, featuring our iconic red taxis. We have also expanded to include a shuttle bus at our fleet early in our origin, however we have since upgraded to a state of the art coach bus, of which we use to provide tours starting in Los Santos up to Blaine County and the Mount Chiliad wilderness areas, often running tour services that shuttle drivers from the bus through an SUV up the mountain. Other services ran by the Habeeb Transport Union include Habeeb VIP, which is a fleet consisting of a long wheel base luxurious Baller LE and a similarly optioned Schafter, both booked by executives or businesses for the top tier transit experience. Throughout our time in Los Santos, we have achieved many notable successes. One of our most proudest achievements was running the state-sponsored LS Transit into moral bankruptcy and eventually closure on three separate occasions throughout its' lifespan, with ourselves managing to absorb some of the competition's employees throughout the mission. While we are a company with historic roots based in the city of Los Santos, our recent resurgence has been met with the most success so far, with our current employee list at 25 employees, which continues to grow every single day. Habeeb Enterprises as a whole has many humble and homegrown operations in the city, such as our notorious kebab shops, our former club, and a coffee shop previously owned by ourselves as well. As of now, we solely operate the Nut Buster Kebab & Koffee along with Habeeb Transport Union, yet are seeking to expand our horizons. The main basis of Habeeb Transport Union is Habeeb Taxi, however we have always been keen to expanding our horizons as a company, which can be seen through out past project initiations. Our goal has always been to engage the public in our art of transit, hosting public events, which are sometimes free of charge or financed by businesses across Los Santos, thus stimulating the local economy. As a company with roots in the area, we have been contributing to the economy of the State of San Andreas for a period much longer than our competitors, who have mostly been established just this fiscal year. Our customers always love to see our bright red cabs, with some taxi fares even going as far to request a Habeeb Taxi specifically upon phoning the dispatch. Habeeb Transport Union and Habeeb Taxi itself is a household name in Los Santos, one that is loved by the pubilc. -------------------------------------------------------------- This is a thread for screenshots from Habeeb Transport Union and Habeeb Enterprises as a whole! We've been roleplaying Habeeb Taxi starting in 2015 on LSRP and have since continued roleplaying that same company on here since 2017. Please do not post screenshots on this thread unless you have permission from myself to do so! Thank you.

Bringing this up in our next staff meeting, thank you for all the contribution!

If player A sells his house in Sandy Shores for 150k because that's the maximum he can get per hte new rules, there'll be for example 50 people who want to buy it. Who buys it. then? People will begin doing "background transactions" to pay more in order to 'win' that house auction. Am I the only one who sees the much more rising issues than issues being solved? As I said, I approve the control of properties, but that should be done by controling the economy first, not put limitations that make no sense for certain properties which are made at the beginning of the server and hold an incorrect MP value (as explained, a Mirror park house MP = Sandy Shores house MP). There are currently no fees or maintenance to owning a house. A step in the right direction would be to add taxes and maintenance to properties, rather than put rule limitations.
