This sounds good in theory but it should be left to roleplay. I hate 13 yr old characters that act tough and fight adults and then cry in /b asking why you're not scared of a middle school kid, but it happens. If they wanna use the script fighting to powergame how strong they are, report it.

Green/yellow means keep going. Red means stop like a stop sign. Some cops go off of outdated information and pull you over for going through a green. It's dumb but you can deal with it IC and clown them for not knowing their own traffic code. Lights used to be synced but I'm not sure if 1.1 changed it. The driving test we have already is wrong, outdated as hell, makes you drive up a parking garage for no reason, and no one's updated it for some reason.

Absolutely necessary. I've seen plenty of people get completely demotivated and lose tons of hard work they put into their characters because of this. More recently, an active business that was opening, but some of the previous were employees kicked as it was handed to a different owner. And someone who was active and rp'd on their property but not specifically inside the house. In both cases, it was yanked without prior notice, and they did not get it back after reaching out. Another case, someone who was renting the property to ic friends, so the property was active but not by the owner. Again, yanked without prior notice. You need to push for activity or request an explanation before just yanking it. That's just decency. I'm not against the 2 week to 1 month inactivity timer, if you don't log in at all you're kind of accepting that. But the recent questionable property removals have all been manually done.

We've changed sites like three times already and lost nearly all our data each time... And with every single change and update, the site's performance was great for about a month, and then slowly died. Guess we're here again. How do we make it so that an entire re-work like this wouldn't be an exact repeat and break down in a few months?

Everything Alysssa's said is valid here. Stealing cards is not a get-rich-quick scheme and unlike being being robbed of cash, the card holder will likely get reimbursed for the money by their bank/credit card company the second they flag the card as stolen, IF your transactions go through at all. This even happens in the case of card skimmers: once you flag a withdrawal or charge as fraudulent, the bank's investigations start and the victim usually gets their money back within a day or two. Most banks instantly start calling/e-mailing/blocking charges over a few hundred dollars - not even CLOSE to $1k. Also in the event you do rob a debit card, you need the pin #. And if you don't have a way to make an instant transaction inside a store, the victim could give you the wrong pin. And if you steal a credit card, you might need the zip code, which they could lie about, as well. If you try to be sneaky and buy crypto with it and vanish, you'll have to fill out tons of info and verification measures (like selfies holding their license) and so that's not an option either.

Yes please. We lost a few hairstyles like that one with the bangs, and the neat bun and sidebraid. But don't overwrite all of those other hairs listed. You only need to replace a few, like the female cornrow variants that are rarely used. Also, several of the new hairs are duplicated. The dupes could be replaced with the extra styles.

This sounds great in theory but also could could cause a lot of imbalance. Yeah, it sounds like another tool for detectives and more fun rp for forensics. But for the rest, it could be damning. There are plenty of times that you could end up accused of something because you get shot in a crossfire, or get forced to shoot someone because they drew on you first and escalated something like a psycho. Now what? Your character catches a case/prison because they defended themselves from someone who makes throwaway DM characters back to back. The same problem exists now, if you get seen or caught with a gun matching the bullets/casings of a shootout. But it’ll be a lot more common if blood is added.

Short description: Undo the recent update that makes the server save your health even after a relog or /changechar. Detailed description: Just undoing this feature, because it ignores several bugs and problems that can lower your health. It's also bugged (affects other characters) Commands to add: N/A Items to add: N/A How would your suggestion improve the server? Undoes this recent change. Honestly, the game itself is too prone to random damage like tripping over props, falling due to disappearing furniture, and misclicks, for this feature to be useful in any way. People who exploit /changechar to fix their health after a shooting are already breaking rules and I've heard this damage is logged and visible to admins anyway. Additional information: One of the last updates pushed this: "Health will now save on your character, if you relog or use /changechar you will spawn back with the same health" Now, this sounds great. I understand, people abuse /changechar to reset their damage after a fight or getting shot. It's exploitable. But this change completely overlooks the following: Misclicks. How many times do people get punched out of nowhere? You can't even keep count. Cars. Using /vget or /fixveh sometimes LITERALLY brings your car down on top of you. Sometimes the driver opens the door and the game physics decide that door will fling you 10 feet for no reason. Tripping over placed furniture causes damage sometimes. Like jumping over that one annoying chair might ragdoll you and make you take damage. Furniture disappears while you're furnishing. Sometimes even after the furniture is done, the interior reloads. You may spontaneously fall anywhere from 5ft to 20 stories depending on the interior's location. Sure, you can use /fixrevive if it kills you, but sometimes it just injures you. You'll be chugging water bottles. On a side note: it's bugged. I tripped over a prop and took some damage earlier. I swapped to a different character, and it took damage upon logging in. Changed character to another one, it ALSO took the same amount of damage upon logging in.

Christ, that's ridiculous. Yeah, +1, please use any other prop. That would send my bike FLYING even at a proper speed.

It's way too cold currently. I understand that it's desert weather and much colder at night, which is why it dips to the 40's, but it feels excessive. During the summer there were only a few days I recall it hitting above 90 during the daytime. And the rain definitely shouldn't be 20 minutes here and there. If it rains, let it rain for the whole day/weekend. It's not like Florida where it'll rain every day for a little while, it's not the UK. Rain comes in waves or not at all. Minor things to pick at but if there's any changes to be made, that'd be a start.

Kanjos and the cars with the anime liveries bug me to death. It's totally realistic for randomly souped up cars to exist in LA or anywhere else, even in the poor parts of the hood where they DO spend all their extra money at the "is this potentially stolen or made in China?" auto shop. Trust me, even the neons aren't outrageous, they sell the kits and other stupid modification kits at the same stores. I've seen butterfly doors on a 2004 Ford Explorer. People will take nice cars, classic cars, even basic looking cars and absolutely destroy them with gaudy modifications. It's realistic and terrible.

I think you're forgetting how many things still take money from on-hand instead of your bank. Pay-G phones, Ammunation, gas, convenience stores, clothing shops, furnishing, and some parts of the mechanic modding menu (locks & paint used to take on-hand cash while everything came from the bank) Literally everything that most people would use cards for now, we're forced to use cash instead. Giving cash physical weight isn't a solution, it's just a reminder that we still have to pay on-hand cash for stupid things. And robberies would absolutely go out of control, like they're not already. People try to rp one in 20 seconds with 1-2 emotes and cry about stalling.

Yes please. Sound would help. Also there's currently no way to /bell or /knock on a multi-interior door as far as I know, and that'd be a good addition.

Just loads of little bugs that have been around forever: /DeleteAllMessages is no longer an option on Nokias, /deletemessage *ID* is also missing and makes it so you can't even delete individual messages on those. Meanwhile, smartphones can delete entire message threads with one click. Something about hitting backspace to exit out of a clothing shop menu has frequently teleported me across the map, usually back to wherever I last hit i for the interaction menu. Inventory items sometimes rearrange randomly. Phones re-organize themselves in your inv and /myphones list - I'll have a Nokia specifically at the end of my inventory list, and name it 'go.' Meanwhile, 2 other smartphones named 1 and 2. Sometimes, they shuffle all around! So I'll use /smp 1 thinking I'm changing to the smartphone named 1, but it goes to slot 1 which will magically rearrange to list the Nokia instead. Loads of people want the old Hair Salon menu back, but we're forced to use the CEF version with no alternative command (like how the plastic surgeon CEF still has a /surgery option that people like better) Plastic surgeon: the CEF menu magically gives you some of the blemishes/complexion options without them being selected. Even with the /surgery menu, you have to finalize/buy to be able to see the moles/complexion/opacity that you selected. Don't like it? You have to re-select it and buy again.. and again... There's visual guides on the forums, but the trial and error sucks. Buying makeup is a process of setting the color, opacity, then toggling the model 1 forward then 1 back so you can see what the updated/chosen color/opacity look like. /hairtie ponytail(etc) only syncs for people around you at that time. Someone new enters the dim/streaming distance, you need to repeat the command. You turn your smartphone off. You do /ph to pull it up and the screen is magically on despite it showing as off in /myphones. So you have to manually turn it off THEN back on again. Sending PayG phone texts/calls takes money from on-hand cash. Buying gas, convenience store items, guns, clothes, etc, all take money from on-hand cash instead of just coming from your bank. It'd be nice to do /withdraw # or /deposit # at the bank & ATM again instead of using the CEF keypad.

Support. More rp for garages instead of making a car vanish in the parking lot.

This. The basic asset taxes already leave some players with with a $500 hourly paycheck or less. You have to leave people an option to be able to exist, play, & throw a little money at the rp economy (shops, bars, drugs, etc) without having to grind for it. You already create your own cost of living by how much you spend on your house, car insurance, repairs, gas, clubs, drinks, drugs, guns, clothing shop addiction, etc.

+People are definitely buying the outfit slots individually & as part of the donation packages. There's a few unique shops out there with the clothing shop script accessible inside of them and that's a nice feature for immersion. But this should not be this complicated, ever. There's also been servers that named all the individual clothing items/variations and categorized them, put them in different stores, at different price points. One used an inventory system, and another used CEF. Unfortunately, both flopped because it was just too complicated and a hassle to everyone creating AND using it.

This please. Same thing, but /toglow might be easier to remember.

I also have this issue. It said I had 2/3 boosted posts but I had none. At the time, I had boosted 2 posts from a page I have admin permissions on. However, they spontaneously un-boosted themselves.

The /voicemail option already exists and shows up when you call a phone that isn't on or doesn't pick up.. but it doesn't work. it never alerts the person about your voicemail.

This. This suggestion is just a money sink. It doesn't add any roleplay that you can't already do yourself. You can roleplay having no insurance, medicare, or private health insurance, it's your call in the end depending on what suits your character. Adding a COST to getting an ambulance/FD treatment will just make a lot more people /acceptdeath or adamantly refuse any roleplay with FD - and they can. Because unless they're downed/unconscious, they have the right to take an Uber to the hospital, not go at all, or find an alternative.

Hooooly shit......I can finally stop incessantly copy pasting /hat on. THANK YOU.

This. Also, the community has seen lawyers waste their time, effort, and money to sue over petty comments left on business pages.
