  1. Market Price: 75K Furniture Worth: 4K (Small additions to Franklin's Aunt's) Don't offer me anything lower than 150K or you won't get it, too much of a loss for me. (paid 250K) Not looking to auction, best offer I get is getting it, I don't plan on having this up long. Closer your offer is to what I paid, the more likely I'll sell it to you outright. Simple as. Contact me through Facebrowser (click), it's the only place I actively respond. Interior: https://imgur.com/a/YvaTJ90
  2. Good roleplay isn't determined by the length of /me's that's for sure. Your /me that's short and concise leaving details vague and simply just displaying action isn't better than one that details it, and over the top long and extra for no reason /me's with details that literally don't matter and have no purpose are just as bad as a bland, extremely short /me. What makes a good roleplayer imo is knowing when and where to be concise and when and where to be detailed, outside of simple preference. RP is a form of writing after all, it shouldn't be treated as if it's a video game, a good RPer recognizes this. Sometimes you have to flow and type as short as possible to be quick, but detail is also nice so that people can accurately react if its certain things, more info prevents MG/PG. Truly good roleplay is simple: Accurately portrayed, realistic characters creating believable, real scenarios without planning and letting things progress naturally so the roleplay becomes it's own story. Characters that feel like real people are good roleplay. Development that feels realistic and authentic is good roleplay. Scenarios and handling them in a way that's enjoyable for all parties yet sticks to the situation at hand (difficult at times since some people don't like losing) is good roleplay. In terms of post lengths of someone's /me though as mentioned earlier, /me smokes a cigarette. is just as bad as /me uses his index and thumb to slide his hand into his pocket and apply pressure to the corners of his cigarette box as he pulls the box from inside his pocket to lift the lid open and grab a single cigarette to which he then reaches back into the cigarette box with his index and thumb to grab his stashed away lighter bla bla you get the point. A good /me is not as short as possible, nor is it as long as possible. Peak is somewhere inbetween. A good flow with good detail as well, just detail that has a purpose. There's a hundred ways to do something, let someone know which way /your/ character does it. Show habit, not simply action. It's a character, your /me's should have character in them. The only time a /me should be nothing more than an action for things like /me gags. or /me looks at Gerald. If you're doing something, be a little creative. Creativity is key to good RP, not boring one liners. No flair to something is stale, bland. Too much is too extra. You can't read someone's character through /me eats a pizza, however you can see quirks of their character when through something like "/me grabs his slice of pizza and folds it, taking sideways bites while he sits leaned against the arm of the chair." There's character in that, you see habits. How he eats his pizza, his relaxed demeanor since he's leaned over, etc. It portrays a character, not a blank, emotionless action. The sole point of roleplay is to portray a person, so do so in more than just 3 word /me's. Golden rule: If your character feels like a movie or video game character, you're doing it wrong. Save that shit for fantasy roleplay. Normal life characters should feel and play as if they're normal life people and your obscure 1 in a trillion reference that says it's a thing in real life means jack shit. Common is good. Extreme rarity is bad.
  3. why is this post even a thing and why are people even still commenting on it? this entire thing just screams "im an illegal rper and im sick of civilians stopping me from commiting crimes against them with their pf guns" lmao its america half the country wants guns and the other half wants to take them away. deal with it? if anything you SHOULD have a gun to protect yourself, LS is like a fuckin warzone because of how trigger happy people are. and thinking you need to know even basic details to own a gun is a joke, there's people out there with firearms that learn as minimal as possible and buy one once able, then forget everything they've learned because they never train or practice. doesn't deserve/shouldn't have doesnt equate to doesnt own, unfortunately.
  4. it has nothing to do with suppressing crime. gang rp isn't about "AY CUH U ON MY TURF NYIGAAAA" -GLACK GLACK- gang members dont just go around shooting and robbing and doing crime every single hour of the day. the rate of which crime happens has consequences. don't go around doing nothing but crime and then complain when the cops go around doing nothing but trying to stop it. that's their role and you have yours however you decide to portray it. there's a lot of people in the gang rp scene that ruin it for the rest of you guys by treating it like a cops and robbers server with trash rp and portrayal because they went on reddit and watched a bunch of videos of younger bangers acting a fool to look cool gtaw's had the last several years since swapping to ragemp where gang and cop rp was just trash, although its starting to get a bit better, ik there's a lot of people that actually know what they're doing but the stigma of how much crime is actually happening is still there from the days where you could walk into the area and do nothing wrong and still get shot for nothing. just like gang rpers tell civilian rpers "its an ic thing deal with it ic" this is also an ic thing and you need to roleplay it the way it is. the gang areas are hounded, what does one do in a criminal environment when things are far too hot to actually commit crimes? stop commiting crimes in that area and go somewhere else where it's safer to commit a crime and get away with it. common sense. that would equate to the consequences of the cop RPers making it too difficult to do criminal acts in the hood, forcing criminals to find their marks elsewhere. complaining about it ooc gets nowhere. it's not something you can just go "HEY FUCKER STOP DOING THAT" and everyone stops. it's something the gang community has to fix ICly by slowing down the criminal activities in the areas. Gang RP isn't about going around doing crime. Your focus should be more on the gang and the politics of the gang life, hanging around doing random shit with the homies, just living. RP is playing a normal human being, not a video game gangsta gangsta 50 cent shootemup. the way it is right now is literally caused by y'alls own actions, deal with it accordingly, don't whine about it out of character. the police KNOW oocly /and/ icly that there's gonna be shit popping off left and right if they leave it unmonitored which is why they focus on that area. it's a problem when every single person on the server refers to these areas like warzones and physically avoids them out of fear of being shot over nothing. gang roleplayers created this reality and defended it on forums for ages. if you want it to change, ICly the communities have to come together and stop any problems, squash it with fist fights not nines. bring the heat down so you guys aren't held on a leash. if civilian rpers have to 'deal with it' when the crime is skyrocketing unrealistically, then so do gang rpers when the pressure from the police is skyrocketing unrealistically.
  5. comparing irl response times is irrelevant when half of LS is like iraq at times. actions have consequences. encourage everyone around you to not be trigger happy and get in so many firefights over literally nothing. the more calm the cops think things are the less likely they are to patrol around and hound the area hoping something pops off so they can get in on some action. the main center of crime is in gang rp areas, obviously cops are gonna focus on being around there to do their jobs. you're not going to get real police response times on an RP server unless you're RPing a civilian doing random shit cause they're focused on gang stuff since that's where the lspdfr action be at. a shooting usually has a response time of anywhere from like 30 minutes to an hour, sometimes far less but not that often(especially in LA), that's just not going to happen in a GTA RP server. cops have their role to fit into and gang rpers have theirs. there isn't an extremely high standard of rp or behavior set on either side IMO (but there's some good hidden in the bunch) which is the cause of half the clashing. stop giving them a reason and they wont feel the need to patrol those areas so they can respond quickly to criminal activity.
  6. generic plot but the plot is tits and egirl jokes
  7. no, shits ugly as fuck but no
  8. How someone reports someone for "promoting subpar RP" then goes on to promote even worse roleplay only moments later is astounding. Bravo, truly. I'm impressed.
  9. Strengths I do personalities really well Weaknesses I fucking suck at literally everything else including even logging on
  10. why do people say extremely unrealistic representations of the crime rate in LA that happen in LS is just an IC issue that the gov should handle but when cops roll deep af with the blicky and the blicky stopper to protect themselves in an environment that has more gunfights than a western movie usually, topics like these get made? i dont understand that
  11. cant wait to fuck people up at pool & the sync, god the sync. please 1.1 zaddy bless us.
  12. What Wirbelwind said. The ooc side of RP communities is what makes them so toxic. The purest and most fun/enjoyable experiences are ones with people you don't know and when you don't know whats going to happen. No OOC interactions aside from admin shit is peak.
  13. nah. keep it how it is so people can just rp it as w/e they feel interested in rping it as.
  14. in terms of that vespucci gang hangin in the canals since i got experiences with them, tbh despite it being a little goofy to see gang members in the /middle/ of the canals, (i think the outskirts would be better or more legit, which from what i see they do hang out more toward the outskirts than they do smack dab in the middle), i havent personally had any problems. my current character (tyler holbrook the sk8r retard) is some rich kid living off his parents money in an apartment there and all the encounters with the gang've been good, whether funny or chill. they weren't provoking me or trying to fight, 1 of em was joking around with me and i joked back & another one basically became my weed connect & was bein chill asf. others have been cordial asf cause i'll just nod and say whats up when im around to make it obvious i dont have an issue with em and they do the same. in a lot of cases, it's all about how /YOU/ interact with them thats getting you fucked up. its not hard to be passive/respectful. quit acting hard and swallow the pride, the issues dont just stem from gang rpers its on both sides this shit what some of yall need 😂😂😂 BIG time. someone please lock this thread LMAO its goin absolutely nowhere
  15. pretty much this lmao, i agree with you. i withnessed that in GBZ a lot with locals just acting hard and being idiots to all the wrong people in the gang and getting killed for it. i personally think a lot of gang members are a bit TOO aggressive sometimes (roleplaying a hothead is cool and all but u should be going out of ur way to avoid gunning someone down just cause they test u. a lot of people just dont know how to rp in that environment yet, killing them doesnt teach them) and especially in areas that they really have no business being in, but like everyone says that is still pretty much an IC issue even if it is kinda sketchy portrayal. and there is a huge ass double sided blade type situation at play too, because civilian rpers think they're hot shit and the second coming of frank castle the moment they get a PF and/or CCW. there's a lot of problems on both sides whether its bad rp or just plain ole headassery at play. lets not even talk about leo rpers 😂 people really gotta learn to be weary/scared of criminals and portray their own characters realistically before they expect a gang rper to do the same. ik in p much every encounter i've had with illegal rpers i rp some sense of fear, whether defending myself out of fear when backed into a corner and having no other choice, or being a pussy and trying to talk my way out of a situation as best i can and show respect, and the latter almost always works. a lot of the issues stem from the ooc toxicity between civilian rpers and gang rpers tho IMO. mallrat this mallrat that bla bla and gang rpers treating civilian rpers like they're NPCs in a gta game and expecting them to hurl over the moment they encounter a gang rper, or civilian rpers just throwing every single gang member in the pile of idlerats that are o-dogg cosplayers and have no idea what they're doing when infact a lot of gang rpers are actually p decent/good rpers, just usually pretty toxic and aggressive oocly for no reason whatsoever. everybody acting hard when we're all a bunch of lame ass nerds playing a roleplaying server on GTA. none of us are hard no matter what we think. at the end of the day we're all here for the same reason, to rp and have fun. it gets a little outta wack cause people not being able to keep their cool oocly and that is a big issue on every side of the spectrum. nothing's really gonna change that until people grow up though, and i dont see that happening any time soon. especially on GTA RP cause this shit been hella toxic since day 1 lmao. thats p much why topics like these are pointless like everyone keeps saying, all it does is make more arguments for shit that's mostly an IC issue and occasionally a player quality issue that nobody's gonna report cause its easier to complain about it instead of either taking the L and moving on with your day or reporting them to plm an admin should lock this thread tbh. it's a broken record argument thread that's gonna go nowhere and already was before it was revived.
  16. lack of creativity usually, but its not that big of a deal lmao. if ppl wanna rp the same shit and its not harming anyone, let them (within reason obviously dont hit me with some dumb extreme example)
  17. Currently looking for a Hakuchou The condition of the bike doesn't really matter, but if it's stock I'm not going to pay dealership prices for it. Will pay more for one that's souped up and not crazy high miles. Insurance doesn't matter, but registration is a must. HMU if you have one here on FaceBrowser (click), easiest way to get ahold of me. I'll pay registered dealership price (96K) for one with security measures and aftermarket performance.
  18. dont get involved with anything ooc roleplay what you like roleplaying dont play unless you really wanna play, jumping on just to be on is going to end up boring and burn you out explore randomly, few and far between, but some of the best rp encounters i've ever had is just wandering around and ending up in the middle of something try going to things you wouldnt go to normally, might end up running into some entertaining rp make friends on fb, good way to weasel your way into social groups, RP is clique-heavy as fuck and GTAW is no exception don't take things all that serious, because gtaw is a place that will frustrate you if you do take things serious enough to not ruin other people's time. what do i mean by this? it's a game, dont get too invested. but it's roleplay. maintain a standard that spreads the fun to everyone around you, not just you. there is no player 1 in a roleplay server, we're all playing coop and it's no fun if you try and make everything about you and yours. factions are VERY good ways to have fun, if things are going well, and solid ways of steady rp as you'll usually have a reason to be on or be reached out to often in character and pulled into things with other members. they have their fair share of annoying shit to tho. best advice i can give honestly, a lot of the posts in this topic have good advice too the less involved you are with the ooc toxicity of any rp community and the more focused on the RP you are, the more fun you'll have. this isn't to say you cant make friends ooc, but in general, just don't get involved, or be as involved as little as possible on the ooc side of things. you'll have more fun in most cases. pay attention to the types of people you're roleplaying with as well, and by this i mean, in every niche of roleplay, whether its illegal rp, legal rp, cops, gangs, bars, lesbians, racers, whatever it is you do? there's going to be more bad than there is good. a lot of people on gta don't really understand what rp is and tend to treat things as a cops and robbers + racing server than they do a roleplay server, and a lot of people are also pretty scumbaggy oocly. (hence why i say to not be super involved with things ooc), but my point here is that a lot of the times people will bleed ooc and ic back and forth and be completely unreasonable and it can completely ruin your time. most of em are pretty easy to spot. tl;dr, watch your back and who you decide to invest your character's serious affiliations with, can land you in a lot of really stupid and petty drama that just ends up being hella cringy lmao
