  1. Unless they're trying to use emojis in chat and typing things like lol and lmao it's incredibly petty for those who are actually trying to learn proper grammar.
  2. 10k Email [email protected] ((Forum PM)) for phone number
  3. Yes, literally doesn't make sense why you can't buy even cheap cigarettes at a gas station when you can get most popular brands in nearly every gas station in the United States. Just have a limited selection of cigarette brands available so tobacco shops can still have a reason to be around.
  4. Not sure if this would change that considering they can just skip out on insurance if they want, its risker without but if there's a will there's a way. Other than that I think any change to insurance wouldn't be a bad thing, so long as it makes it more important.
  5. You could have each rental vehicle generate a randomized license plate (from different format of normal plates to avoid possible duplicates with rental and owned) and save general information like the player's name, time they rented it, etc. to address the de-spawning issue but it wouldn't solve how to prove the name (ID card) used to rent it real or not without MGing or proper screenshots/logs of them using stolen/fake ID/credit card. I don't think making a rule to not allow rentals to be used is the right approach since it does happen plenty irl.
  6. Changed to the proper format, thanks for telling me I forgot lol And my suggestion is that irl when you get insurance on a vehicle, you will always have insurance on that vehicle until you decide to cancel your insurance or do not/cannot pay the bill. irl you don't get called every month by the insurance company saying "hey there, you got 1 day left, care to renew your insurance?", that'd be widely inconvenient for everyone involved so instead you just buy a insurance plan and pay a monthly premium to keep your insurance.
  7. Short description: Add option to have monthly (31 days) insurance bills when you buy a new vehicle, go to DMV or call 207. Detailed description: Have insurance that can just be billed monthly so we don't have to manually renew it every time it runs out. Commands to add: N/A Items to add: N/A How would your suggestion improve the server? QoL Additional information: To address the "what if someone goes inactive and keeps getting billed?", you only limit it to 1 month so when they finally become active again, they only get charged for 1 month.
  8. here's hoping they can work on rdr2 compatibility after 1.1 😛
  9. I agree that robberies would increase from the removal (or increase) of a limit from the p2w players. I can't remember what features or possible rules that the administration rolled out some time ago but they approached it from a similar way of "we'll do it like this for a few weeks and see if we can go further with it or not", I don't think it'd hurt to try to increase the limit just to see how it'd play out, doesn't need to be 25k like I mentioned earlier, it could be just 10k. They could easily revert the rule back if it became a shit show so at worst it'd be a few weeks of increased annoyance but it'd help give data to staff on how else they could possibly attack this issue. Also, I wanna reiterate that with the issue with players carrying money OOCly, I think it'd be good for some features like furniture but you couldn't make it for everything otherwise nobody would carry cash on them but at the same time, I don't think its a negative if they turned to stealing objects rather than money since robberies aren't always about cash. Some examples I can think of where you wouldn't need to change it is buying items from any business, buying gas, used car dealerships and taxi services (never used a taxi on the server so idk if it uses bank money or not already).
  10. I think it could be good to increase the limit to something like 25k to get a feel for how removing the limit entirely might turn out. However, I think to address the concerns with how players carry money OOCly for certain script features (such as furniture), simply give the option to use bank money for some of these features instead of using money on your character.
  11. I believe the problem lies in the people who don't look at it this way and simply put the ad up to get any business to get $$$, this is good reasoning to put up an ad like that but sadly most people who do aren't thinking from an IC perspective but more OOC reasoning of "i will be rich!!1".
  12. Can be archived, ended up re-downloading the server assets and it managed to fix it somehow.
  13. I'm one of those guys who writes simple and direct to the point /me's, always have been since RC:RP in 2010. In my mind, having to write longer /me's to fit some kind of standard is similar to having a required word amount when answering a question. You're just asking me to fill it with pointless shit when I've already gave you the necessary context and detail that it needs (think of the things you did to make your essay paper longer in school). Most actions don't require more than a sentence worth of words to describe, such as getting out of a car or entering a business. Even with roleplay that requires to be in depth, like mechanics, I would never go to the level of detail of: Some will see this as great descriptive roleplay and I'm not saying anything's wrong with going into detail like this if its what you like, I just believe that you can condense it down to... ...with no real loss to the detail. All the extra bits are simply flavor text, nothing that adds to what needs to be known in said action. Again, nothing is wrong with filling your actions with flavor text but some people can describe an action clear and direct with a single sentence without adding anything extra, you shouldn't ask them to add more detail just because you personally think it needs more detail.
  14. When I try to connect to the server, it says "Establishing Connection" and doesn't advance past this. It randomly decided to do this a few days ago and I've tried reinstalling RAGE, verifying game files, having R* launcher open while using RAGE and nothing changes.
