Its been very fun guys. Really enjoyed the time here! Here's some inspiration, for all of us! Video coming soon!

You don't need a script to rp or have fun, but it does help in that it gives people an area to congregate where they don't have to go far if they need something (alcohol, food, gas, clothes, etc). Paleto has a good amount, but its just short of enough. Hence that little push I suggested. Paleto is never going to be a place for everyone, as not everyone enjoys county rp, and that's totally fine. EDIT: I think a closer sellfish location for paleto would go a long, long way to creating great rp there. If anything, fishing is less about the cash money and more about the socializing you get with all the country bumpkins.

Vespucci Johnny meets with an under boss of the Luppinos at Vespucci to discuss current and future business opportunities in the area.

Because the person in question failed to log back and in fix the issue for whatever reason they may have. Jumping to a script addition or administrative report because the person in question is incapable of fixing the issue in character is something we shouldn't strive for. Call a taxi, call a friend, walk, run, jog, crawl on your hands and knees like a dog, lay down on the ground and roll your way back to the police station, neighborhood or graveyard. The issue can be fixed in character and in character it should stay, regardless if it is a crash or not. We're claiming to be roleplayers, so roleplay a situation as to why a character may be in this sort of predicament. Creativity people.

The Pier So, bit of a random story here, but I thought "I may as well write about it." After meeting a few of Randy's friends, in particular a charming guy called Franky, he asks me if I want to ditch the club. I think "sure, why not" and join him in his car. We chat a little, flirting and what-not, then we pull into a car park. I think "shit, is he just gonna kill me or something?". Turns out, he knew I was a 'party animal', and several lines of coke later we're speeding along on our way to the pier for a swim. I can't really remember much, but I remember shouting "I LOVE AMERICA!", leaning out the window of his speeding 4x4. So we pull up at the pier, and I say "Let's go for a swim!". We strip down, naked I think, and do a few more lines. Obviously by then, we were pretty buzzed, so I take his hands and give him a grin. "Let's jump off the pier!" I exclaim happily. He grins, agreeing, and on the count of three, we hold each other's hands and... SPLASH! It might not look it from this photo, but the pier is REALLY tall.

Since this has been bumped I might as well add to it. Ike is unbelievably committed and probably one of the best admin/moderators I've ever seen on a server/community. Ike is a legend.

Well I can see where you're coming from about splitting the server and people being half way over the map from each other, it's bound to happen regardless because of different role-play stories - some people are Mirror Park people, some South LS, some Vespucci Beach, some Sandy Shores, some Paleto Bay...etc. and no matter what server you go on, people will want to role-play characters from these backgrounds. I think we should continue our path. The way I see it is, while it may be slow and annoying at first, as the server grows you'll find the same amount of population that used to be in Los Santos a month ago, will easily return, and a growing population in Paleto Bay. Already there's a higher average number of players on a normal weekday then there used to be. :) (End of my discussion)

i. hate. you. so. much.

Really like the graphics.

E: Go vote! Started to think Vespucci would make a much better hotspot in comparison to Mirror Park. Here's why: Vespucci supports more character backgrounds, whilst Mirror Park is restricted to middle class Mirror Park is a small, entirely middle class area. Vespucci on the other hand has lower class housing to the south, some middle and upper class housing around the canals, and is a stone's throw from the richer area that's only a few roads north of it. Venice Beach (Vespucci IRL equivalent) is a popular tourist destination and bustling with different backgrounds from all walks off life. It'd make much more sense to have many different types of characters visit there in comparison to Mirror Park - some people could be having days out at the beach, some people could be panhandling, some people could do street performances etc. Vespucci is not too large and is open - making it easy to find people Although the Vespucci area is slightly larger than Mirror Park, the beach areas and the nearby roads are quite wide and open - it wouldn't be too hard to quickly drive around and find people either on the beach, on the pier, or by one of the businesses. Playerbase size has grown to support it At the moment of writing this up, the playerbase online is almost at 90. Although Vespucci is slightly bigger than Mirror Park, the playerbase size is starting to outgrow Mirror Park. There's a lot of times during peaks where Mirror Park will be brimming with parked vehicles and people, I'm currently IG whilst typing this up and there's over a dozen people in the car park alone and cars almost completely filling the small carpark hotspot. Vespucci has more 'things to do' than Mirror Park There's not a whole lot you can RP with Mirror Park besides walking around the park and visiting its businesses. On the other hand, Vespucci boasts a beach gym and tennis court, a skatepark, various small vendors to interact with, and a pier with all of its attractions + businesses that players can open, and a place to casually fish at to pass time when no one is around. Huge local business diversity There's a huge amount of interesting businesses around the Vespucci area. The beach is full of different store fronts that could be incredibly cheap to rent out and run, and then there's a lot of unique restaurants and other RP businesses just next to the beachfront. Mirror Park has a few interesting businesses, but is quite limited in its choice due to its size. All 'essential businesses' exist in Vespucci All the essential local businesses (clothes store, tattoo parlor, hairdresser + mask store) exist around Vespucci. There's some from SP/Online and plenty of spare unscripted buildings of these types that could be added in too. Makes more sense: 1) It's Summer and 2) More likely to have people at the beach vs in a car park With it being summer, people would be likely to hang around the beach a fair bit. On top of that, it makes more sense to have people 'just show up' around a popular attraction area/beach than in a car park. Mirror Park is isolated and has a "No Man's Land" around it, whereas Vespucci is surrounded by stuff in almost all directions The area immediately outside of Mirror Park is basically a "No Man's Land" - there's an industrial estate to the south, a completely empty mountain area to the east, a huge highway to the west, and very little to the north besides a few potential businesses in Vinewood to the north west. On the other hand, Vespucci is surrounded with other areas that players could expand out to later. Highway connects Vespucci and new Paleto hotspot directly Vespucci connects directly to the new Paleto hotspot through the western highway - it'd be much more convenient to travel between Vespucci and Paleto than Mirror Park. Businesses are scripted there already There's already a few initial businesses setup around Vespucci, including two(?) player owned businesses and a few NPC businesses nearby. With some stuff there already, it's not as bad as transitioning to an area with absolutely no support.

DESTROYED. I feel betrayed. I feel destroyed. I'm mad. I'm sad.

I personally like the SD. I also think Paleto is too far away from the "must haves". If additional script support were to be implemented in the county, I'd love to see it and would welcome it. But living and Paleto and working in the city just doesn't make sense, unless of course, you have a helicopter.

Hey Thanks for taking the time to clear that up.. I've seen the thread in question and that just relates to characters from other servers. We didn't see mentioning Glen Park as an issue because there's no rules against it and didn't see it mentioned anywhere and every one knows Glen Park is now Mirror Park. I guess if it's an issue we will look into changing our back story and maybe some rules should be set up for it to stop further confusion as currently we're not in the wrong?

Please no, we already have too many options of where you're able to spawn reducing the need for taxi's. Taxi RP should be encouraged not discouraged.

There's already a radio(Not GTA Vehicle radio), but it's bugged.

Checking out the new office.

Kick up recruit. Johnny had good thoughts about George, the new outsider and wanted to seal the deal. Johnny and Benny brought George up to the dam in order to carry out a search on him, making sure he wasn't an undercover. Once all was clear, George got the nod. Hey George, don't forget your weekly kickups.

Making El Burro great again

Awesome work guys! The future is bright!
