  1. +1. this should be implemented when it's, for example, someone being banned or jailed for reckless driving. I think this would also improve the behavior of these players because they would think twice before doing anything that's forbidden.
  2. +1 I feel like there should be a difference between calling the cops as a normal civilian that respects the law VERSUS rival gang member/thug from the street, especially if you've been seen in the rough areas and your character is most of the time a 'thug'. Killing someone because they called the cops on small time crimes should be forbidden. This would mostly apply for murders, and more serious crimes, not mugging or stealing a car.
  3. I feel like there’s a lack of knowledge on how to roleplay such characters and everyone’s a redneck or a meth head which is rather poorly made. Realistically speaking, you got those types of people, no doubt, but also got a ton of other people in there, from simple citizens to rich farmers and so on. In my experience, Sandy people are like this because of town folks coming and “taking their land”. While I understand this, I also cannot ignore the fact that there’s a lot of hate within the small community and folks don’t really stick together. I tried making a community some years ago, but compared to SAMP, this was really difficult to pull off, as people don’t seem so open minded as I thought. I think Sandy has amazing potential for really unique individuals who would make that place really magic, but that’s rare to happen if things don’t change. I role play an old male in Sandy and it’s rather difficult to approach people as I feel it’s full of hating and discriminatory people, luckily I don’t mind role playing alone. Maybe we need some balance out there… some more civilian role play, owned businesses by normal players and not factions, especially illegal ones, maybe more places for people to interact more easily. For my character it’s particularly difficult to spend time with others because the people are so secretive you can’t even find places open to have a beer. edit: I also want to add that these things might happen because they want to keep the community to themselves, rather than sharing. I’m not saying this towards any faction or individual, but generally speaking.
  4. Username: ercky2700 Comment: looking forward to the event - seems like a nice exhibition.
  5. I feel like the entire insurance system needs a revamp. For once, insurance should be calculated based on fines, age of character, accidents, car model, etc. Secondly, would be quite awesome to have insurance inspectors, part of the Government, so we don't have private insurance companies, that would check dealerships and different accidents scenes to determine whose fault it is. Anyway, this is quite huge and probably takes a ton of time. +1, your idea sounds easy to do and will be useful for everybody :).
  6. One very random thing you could do is have it installed on Windows, and basically copy paste the already installed folder? If you can run GTA 5 as a game, you just copy the RageMP folder and see if it works. I did this thing for some software programs on iOS because it was too tricky to install so I gave up. Then it really depends on how good your Macbook is. Mine is really old but it runs perfectly for movies or web browsing, but I never played games on it. You might give it a go, but I think you'd need a rather new Macbook with quite new components to run a game like GTA 5. 🙂 Let us know if it works, I'm curious lol.
  7. Totally. I believe it's rather easy to add more demographics and statistics to this, especially to businesses. +1
  8. I think it's OK to get into a fight without too much roleplay as you'll basically lose because of that - so maybe they should write it in a way that it states when to do the roleplay. But I also feel like the 'after the fight' roleplay can be tricky, as they might get into an argument of who did what, and when. This is rather a tricky situation either way, and we should definitely address this problem so both parties of such things are happy. +1 for me.
  9. to link this to another suggestion, if everyone will have their forum accounts link to their UCP, as they suggested, this will be very easily made imho. I get into reports very rarely as it's not my business but I think it would notify people more easily, and automatically they would get an email. This comes from someone who logs in whenever they have time because of life schedule, so I guess I might miss a report if I'm not tagged on forums.
  10. +1 with the option for people to turn them off so you can easily surf the forums without being bugged by signatures, if that's what you want. but I wanna have that signature thing back.
  11. +1, linked to @Fireworkssuggestion with URL avatars, this will come in handy. I want a bigger picture.
  12. I feel like this is an exception, and while you are right about this, it doesn't mean we shouldn't implement this. I feel like it's better to have a link between UCP and forum mostly for everyone's avoidance of trolls, haters, etc. With or without that, people will still ban evade and make fake forum accounts, but with this implemented it'll be less as it's a bit more to do to have a forum account :). I promise you that trolls and haters will give up when they realized they gotta do an UCP account as well just to mess with someone. +1
  13. +1 seems easy to do and it's not affecting anyone
  14. +1. IC section should have /way/ more attention to it than it has. Especially anything else than Classifieds. I'd love to see more involvement in news, in events, etc.
