Yea, I'm good now.

Tried to do the "forgot password" route with my G-Mail and it didn't work. I still have the same mobile phone, PC, and IP as I did back when I had access to the Email yet they still couldn't hand it back over. RIP. Any other options?

I have the password to my UCP, but when I try logging in it asks for a "One Time Password" that's sent to my email. I don't have access to the email connected to my UCP anymore.

Maravilla RP. A community-based faction that evolves around modern degeneracy in the underground scene. Trey Deuce, one of the few active Korean street gangs in K-Town IRL that still holds decent numbers. I always see people make ABZ, SBZ, or Wah Ching but never anything different in terms of Asian street gangs. Oriental, Carson, KPB, MBZ, MOB, LB, KBZ, etc. are just a few I can think of. Portraying an indepedent Asian street gang would also be great. Though a lot of Asian street gangs still choose Crip/Blood, portraying one of the few Asian gangs that don't claim either would be dope to see, seeing as I don't really see that inGame. I'm sure people already tried before, but a cult faction would be dope asl. A proper cult on some demonic, weird shit but disguised as an ordinary business establishment to fund their fucked up activities would be cool to see. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-07-30/sheriff-clique-compton-station-executioners I'm not well-informed in LSPD rules or anything of the sort, so I don't know if it's even allowed but it'd be dope to have a corrupted, secret organization within the Police Department with a couple select police officers that come from fucked up backgrounds. Corrupted officials working with crime organizations like the Mexican Mafia, working with drugs and gang politics behind the scenes and such. Would make for some dope RP for gangs and the PD itself.

go crazy

Faction A's faction pulls up to Faction B's apartment housing, and engages in a brutal mass murder of six people. Faction A pulls off. No one ever brings up "Wow, there'd be kids in that park around this time! Why shoot? It's an apartment building! People would be outside lounging around! People live in those apartments, those bullets can go through their windows and doors in real life! Do you care about those kids in those parks and apartments?" In addition, I don't think this all should just exclude "criminal on criminal" warfare. The same arguments you can make with civilians in Downtown LS being targeted in violant crimes, the same can be made with the people in South LS. What happens in Downtown LS probably doesn't hold a FINGER to what happens in South LS. Complaining about being shot in front of a camera, when you got people mowing down tens of people in the middle of the street in broad daylight over gang politics. That's crazy. I also would not bring up "reports" as a backing to your side. There's hundreds of reports of people gunning down people in broad daylight, whether it's Downtown or in the South, and admins never bringing up the argument of "Woah, it's broad daylight!" argument. The same can be said about them actually bringing it up. That's my point in all this. It's not as cut and dry as you're making it out to be. If it was, every admin would be enforcing it. People making it seem like the rest of LS should just be a greenzone because a guy murdered someone in front of a camera or 3+ people. If ANYBODY does anything that reckless inGame then it should be taken ICly in my own opinion, and I don't see why not. It gives authorities more RP, and the court system more RP. A man just murdered someone in front of a camera. Okay, he's done. A man just murdered someone with SO MANY witnesses. Why make it an admin sit, when the witnesses can just notify authorities, get the player locked up for life and then it end at that?

We can all link threads of people mowing down other factions within player complaints and the argument of "This is a lively place IRL, why do such an act in Los Santos" is never brought up whatsoever. If it wasn't as shakey as a topic everyone is making it out to be, then this thread wouldn't be needed.

If somebody murders someone in front of a camera, then they should face the IC consequences for said action. I don't like bringing OOC shit to a reckless IC situation such as that. It gives the authorities more RP, in the end. If somebody murders someone in front of a live crowd (3+ people), then I believe it should be handled ICly. If a dude just shot somebody in front of a bunch of witnesses, why not just bring it to the authorities and work off of that? Me just being me, if my character just got his head blown off with three or more people witnessing it, I'd let it play out. More than not, I'm assuming, people would whether /report for a 1 hour admin sit about magical people in the distance. Los Santos is based off Los Angeles, if we're talking realistic traffic then any and every shooting taken place would be broadcasted by multiple CCTVs nearby, and would have plentyful witnesses. Speaking on admin situations, there's been two sides of it. Admins have applied the "people would be flooded all through this area" argument, and there has been times where they haven't. It's a shakey topic, and people acting as if it's not is just plain out stupid. It's not as cut and dry as people are making it out to be. Each and every shooting, you'd just have people spamming /report with the classic "Hey, this guy just shot me after I posed a threat to him. He should be prisoned, due to this spot being very lively in Los Angeles." People acting as if Vinewood/Hollywood is just a crime-free zone in real life is in the wrong, too. Downtown LA & Hollywood has it's own murder rate. It isn't strawberries and ice cream out there. People get murdered, slaughtered, stabbed, robbed, mugged, etc. There has to be a definite line between Los Santos & Los Angeles if every sector of Downtown LS is going to have the "this place would have tons of people walking around," argument.

There's animations of riding & sucking penis in the server, I'm assuming the server is already directed towards 18+. There's a lot of things wrong about FaceBrowser, but throwing the "what if a underaged person reads this" argument is stupid to me. What if a 14 year old logs ingame and watches a player commit mass murder with an assault rifle. What if a 14 year old opens up a faction thread to find a woman getting her back blown out, or a stripper clapping cheeks? What if a kid jumps ingame and catches somebody committing suicide or sticking a dirty needle in his wrist? It can be made for literally anything. Is FaceBrowser full of horny motherfuckers, sure. Is it annoying when people murder somebody then post the picture on FB? I mean, sure. I don't mind it, but I can see why people wouldn't. Is it a direct reflection of social media nowadays, whether it's Instagram or Twitter? Absolutely. If I got a dude posting a dead body on his FaceBrowser, you block him. If a chick makes a post about wanting cock, who the fuck cares in all honesty? It's not like people are drag/dropping videos of their characters slobbing down cock for the entire world to see like it's Twitter.

A lot of instances people are using here are completely reportable. There's people that perform retarded robberies, sure, but they're reportable. If someone pulls up in an expensive vehicle to rob you, that's reportable. People are actively ajailed over that. There are people who perform brazen robberies with little development behind it, like immediately knowing how to perform a successful robbery without showing little to any emotion whatsoever for instance. Totally agree, but that can be applied to anything. Everyone knows how to shoot a gun straight off the bat without having to practice. There's people who make characters, buy a fast car, then immediately become drag racers with insane technique out of the blue. Should people put more development and depth into robberies, sure, but expecting EVERYBODY to have some deep background behind robbing someone for $150 and a cellphone is insane to me. If a "robber" gets caught by authorities, he gets hours upon hours in jail. If he's killed, it's a PK. If people think that the player should be CK'd, I totally agree. There should be some fear on both sides, but there's a limit to it. The robber's worried about the authorities or bystanders in the commission of the robbery. The victim is worried about his LIFE. He has a gun or knife to his person, which more than not transpired within seconds, and being told to either empty his pockets or more than not get against the wall or he'd be murdered. Two different things to worry about with two different limits to them. They're incomparable. Too many people are expecting the furthest of the furthest standards for robbing imo. If we're talking robberies in high end neighborhoods, and using Los Angeles as a prime example; high-end neighborhoods are the hub of house invasions. Crime isn't non-existent for the rich and the fortunate, if anything they're more of a target. The suburbs are literally 20-30 minutes away from South Central in LA. On LS, ride the bridge from Jamestown to El Burro Heights and hit a left, you're in Mirror Park. Take the street behind Forum through the tunnels and you're in Legion. If we applied the standards everyone is applying to robberies to everything else in the server, there'd literally be hell on Forums and InGame. People would rather die than hand over their cheap ass Nokia or licensed pistol. People would rather murder a police officer in cold blood over getting a speeding ticket. This isn't just a "robbery" problem. It's tunneled through a bunch of other shit that's wrong with a lot of players in the server.

I'm speaking of people contacting people OOCly to help them out, like on Discord, and then stall the situation by prolonging it intentionally for their friends to come. Anything else from that I don't see a problem with. Some factions are just too extra with it. To a degree, I understand but there's a point that I could say that some people just cross all the time. Not everybody has to be a hardened motherfucker with 60 tattoos and bodies under his belt. There's a boundary to everything. I'm just initially saying, at some point you'd have to adapt to your surroundings and understand that Rancho's an overly aggressive and political neighborhood. That's all.

If someone's just over-using /me and /do whilst being robbed, or taking over 1-2 minutes to let out a simple line in RP is always accused of stalling. Stalling's another thing thats aids in robberies. Someone's robbing somebody, and then 2 minutes later out of nowhere a car of people pull up and just shoot you down. It's a usual thing. For instance, if I ran up on somebody and put a gun to his head, demanding him to give up what's in his pockets; it'd be a bit weird for him to take a whole 2 minutes to just type "/me raises his hands", or asking irrelevant & out-right stupid questions in /do to prolong the situation. Seen that happen too many times. I'm speaking of my own experience. Bunch of people in South LS get robbed, the most you'd get out of anything is DeathMatching. Too many people using females to lure people into apartments, and then someone coming up from behind and robbing them blind. It's a everyday thang, everyone who's in South LS can relate to all of that. Me being me, right, if I was living in Rancho then I'd have to adapt to my surroundings. Start a character off fresh that's not into shit except minding his own business, but obviously things'll get more grimey sooner enough. You'll be targeted, as your character doesn't know anybody to vouche for him to the local street gang that reigns over your neighborhood, and nobody knows his face. Getting beat up, robbed, whatever. That's usually the case for a lot of people. You're in a gang ridden, crime ridden neighborhood that's based off people showing face. If I went to Chamberlain Hills and got ran up on by Tortilla Flats, they'd immediately press me. They've never seen my character before. Some people tend to get physical in things like this, some people tend to actually rob you, and some people just let you be. Mainly what I'm saying is adapt to your surroundings. If my character is in Mirror Park, he doesn't have to move as he would if he for instance lived in Rancho. Rancho is a dangerous place. There's a lot of aggression and targeting going on. If your character doesn't want to be victimized all the time, he'd have to show an equal amount of aggressiveness to survive.

A robbery between two people who evolve themselves around Illegal RP more than likely goes smoothly, at least in my own experience. The few times that I have robbed people, more than not the problems came out of people who were just regular citizens. Lots of civilians in the server just plain out refuse to be robbed, and immediately get triggered by the fact. Admins get involved, an OOC fest unsues, etc. To me, it always fall on people just not being aware of their surroundings. It doesn't matter what neighborhood you're in, predators are lurking around the entire city. Crime isn't just sanctioned for South LS, the entire city's in flames. Walk around by your lonesome late at night, soon enough something's gonna happen. Whether that's a robbery, kidnapping, whatever. Another problem was people playing hero. Someone runs up on somebody, initiate the robbery, and a random chick in her Sultan stops in the middle of the street and hops out with her Combat Pistol to engage in a full-on shootout in the middle of the street for somebody she doesn't even know nor has spoken to prior. People risking their lives for other people over petty robberies is insane to me. There are a good portion of people who roll around in whole Fortnite Squads, masked up and looking for people to rob throughout the night. Gives Illegal RP a bad name, and leaves a bad impression on a lot of people. I never used melee, but if someone performs an action that evolves around putting something to your neck or head like a knife or gun, then you just turn around and shoot them, is just plain out PowerGaming to me. Communicate through /me's and /do's. Don't know why people wanna use Voice RP logic for a text based server. That's crazy to me.

Never cared ab people making long ass lines for RP. People RP how they wanna RP, it is what it is. Only time I find it annoying is when someone makes a whole 2-3 liner over something as simple as shaking hands, eyeballing somebody, retrieving something, or making a facial expression. Don't want my chat filled with some chick writing a novel over how descriptive her character's smiling. That type of shit is annoying. Other than that, whatever.
