I'll buy it 190k.

Will pay a 185k for the ZR

Can we get pictures of the interior design of the house at all, or come and see the place for ourselves? Also, does it have some form of garage?

Okay, here's a new point then, it's a video game, we're all here to have fun. Not sit and grind 24/7 just to pay fines, then grind another 24 hours and 7 days for the money back. At that point it's just a pain in the ass. Also, this is what I'd heard, or been told by those within the playerbase about the fines. I mean, carry on jumping on me about the fact I'm "trying to tell Americans how to conduct their law" though. Or better yet, any admins able to, close the thread for God sake. Since all this thread's become is an argument, a losing one on my end.

How.. Professional. You're going to sit there with a support badge and make an attempt to mock someone over previous suggestions. Great way for staff to show they're unbias. Is it just me or is everyone just trying to protect the way the PD works, like how they can just give you an ungodly amount of time in jail, write out on a ticket 20,000 when the penal code states 2,000 and when asking you get told that it was a typo in the penal code. Or how the PD straight-up have full body armor, or access to an unrealistic amount of interceptors.

Again, the point of this is the fact that it doesn't happen in real life, as far as I'm concerned in any country or state. I'd consider it more of an immersion break, if anything. It's funny how you instantly jump to the "Fast & Furious wannabes". Are the people who street race in real life F&F wannabes as well? Read first response to Helm.

It's a pretty simple suggestion, and it's to prevent the LSPD faction from giving other players fines/tickets/citations upon their arrest, the fact it being "up to their discretion" or "Misconduct IC" is unacceptable, if you have to request to be a corrupt cop to the higher ups within the faction itself, then surely this counts as corruption. I've never heard of, or seen, a case where a police officer, in reality, has written a citation or a fine out for someone who has been charged and sent to jail. I'd also like to add that the fact that cops are allowed to fine criminal characters up to 30,000 in one sitting is also ridiculous, I understand we've an inflated economy, but new players, and those who've struggled with money ingame, be that because they have IRL stuff happening so they can't get on to work much, or otherwise, don't stand a chance in Hell with that. If a rule could be implemented on, at the very least, the police officers being unable to FINE players while they're being arrested, that would be great, simply because one, it ruins immersion, and two, completely ridiculous, if we have to serve 3-4 days + and pay citations as soon as we get our money back there'd be no point in giving the cash back if all you actually have would be 2,000 (for whatever reason) and your fines are up to 5,000.

But they don't. Females and male are still in the same pod, because the SD are never on, and nobody moves anyone from their cells.

That bizarre rule came from the playerbase, not the admins, or the PD/SD, it's the gangs within the prison, such as the Nazi's and the Hispanic gang that are in there 24/7. They call every female character out for being a tranny because they don't believe that a prison would have genuine females. I infact almost took a beatdown from the Mexicans inside the prison because I was talking with what they call a "tranny".

What's the point in a PD faction, if there's no criminals to combat? None.

I've been in many VC's where I've heard veteran criminal RP'ers complaining about this stuff, so it's funny you should say that. It's not an IC issue if I'm complaining about things that have been editted within a handling.dat file, it's an OOC issue. Most players don't speak up against this because they don't feel like they'll be listened to, which tends to be the issue nine times out of ten on most servers.

My suggestion, is that you either do NOT get cited ridiculous prices whilst doing jailtime that's over 3 days, and/or the cites prices are lowered. Also, PD cruisers speed and handling should be lowered, if not both then at least one of them. No vehicle has perfect speed, nor has perfect handling, most vehicle sacrifice speed for handling and vice versa.

This is my issue, you have to SLOW DOWN to take a corner properly IRL, or else you spin out. However you seem pretty intent on the fact I was also doing 130 through the corner, which isn't the case, I had to slow down to take it correctly or else the vehicle would have slowed down. I would also like to add, that you still would have a run for your money chasing a vehicle in an interceptor, especially the more higher end vehicles that are known to lose police. This scenario with the Sultan Classic wasn't MY scenario, but it was a friends issue, so I used it as an example. I am, nor will I ever be, a firm believer that this server has more things added that help PD, rather than criminals. I'm also arguing more about the issues with the fact that citations reach ridiculous prices, in which most people barely earn, and the fact that you have to do 12 days+ in jail, AND pay the citations is ridiculous, what's the point in working 3 days if I have to pay the cash back to the server after being arrested?

I was messaged by the admin that closed the thread to use the proper formatting, so thanks for the concern.

Short description: The PD vs Criminals RP is way too unbalanced. The PD have vehicles that can reach, and go over 140mph and take corners like it's nothing. And have a very unrealistic presence. Detailed description: The police faction on the server have a very unrealistic take upon their vehicles and power. They're very overpowered and their vehicles are very unrealistic. Police cruisers can and have reached ridiculous speeds, around 130mph, and cornered at this speed, they were able to keep up with and take down a Sultan Classic, which in reality cop cruisers can barely keep up with the real life counterpart, i.e Subaru Impreza. Not only this, you have every police officer on the server show up to petty crimes, such as a homeless man getting their hand stuck trying to shoplift. Logically this would be low priority and would have one maybe two officers answer, if they have a partner, however the entire PD responds to this. A simple traffic stop, there has been six+ cruisers stacking up on a vehicle, logically it would be two cruisers. Cops are also HUMAN's, which means they aren't ALWAYS on duty, like most of them are, they show zero emotion, and have act like a robot, hence why the playerbase in the criminal RP and the civilian RP have come to call those cops "Robocops." This term has become IC for some people, because it's that much of an issue. I would also like to add, if I am to get 45k in citations, why should I be forced to do 12 days and 20 hours in jail, and still pay the 45k? It's so punishing that I have to pay 90% of my wealth to the server, after working for over 3 days and then have to pay it right back to the server because I'm also trying to do decent criminal RP. I have contemplated quitting the server over this, and have already stopped with my donations on the server because I refuse to donate to a server that is so broken and so one sided on RP. How would your suggestion improve the server? Criminal RP can rise again, and players can genuinely have FUN rp, instead of having to lose their main characters for over two weeks and half of their wealth. The playerbase might even rise where as old players who left due to the OP police force. Additional information: If you ARE a cop and about to post a bias comment, please remember most people have footage and/or screenshots of a PD cruiser going over 130mph around a corner and perfoming exactly like a sports car would when in fact a REAL LIFE police department wouldn't have the funding for a vehicle that handles as such, nor a vehicle that can reach those kinds of speeds. I understand police are supposed to be fun, however so is the criminal aspect. Have a few "high speed" units, not every car being able to keep up with high end sports cars that have more than likely been modified to be race vehicles, like a rally car, or for street racing, or maybe even circuit racing.

Westie, please, PLEASE agree with me that the PD are genuinely too OP. You have zero chances of evading when the ENTIRETY of PD are chasing down one vehicle that they could EASILY keep up with. If you can't keep up with a Kanjo, and have to have 5 or more cops with you in order to take you down, please don't be a cop. That isn't realistic at all. Plus, 90% of the cops I've had to deal with are literally RPing robots, they're never off-duty, they're never acting like a Human, they just act like robots and don't even listen to reasonings behind stuff. And not only that, I've seen cops running red lights and driving at 100mph just because they think nobody is watching, THEN have the nerve to pull over the person who CAUGHT THEM doing exactly that. They also have the nerve to LIE about something such as saying "that wasnt desync, rp that" which I've had plenty enough times, and even taken a BAN from it.

You say this, but that's not what the whole suggestion is about. IT IS about how OP the police actually are. The server is set up so that PD are the controlling force, with vehicles that are able to keep up with high end sports cars and can argue that a desync ram "wasn't desync, rp that". They're so OP, and they also give you 5 days+ and citations that could easily add up to 100k, or more. If you haven't got the cash to pay those citations, you instantly get SWATT'ed.

90% of the PD are robo cops, I respect the ones that genuinely RP being Humans, but I can tell yout his much, EVERY cop I've met so far since returning to the server, is a robocop, it's like 1 in 10 aren't a robot. Which is another issue I have. Cops need to RP GENUINE humans to get respect from me IC and OOC, I don't go as far to OOCly insult them, however ICly I do. I've turned this whole Robocop situation into a genuine IC thing, because that's how bad the issue is to me. I'm genuinely unimersed in the RP because of this issue.

Exactly! And if I have an admin tell me this is an "invalid suggestion" I'll take it straight to Nervous, because it's a fucking joke. I'm genuinely pissed off and gob smacked by this.

I've noticed that everytime I get arrested, the entirety of the Police Department, AND the Sherrifs department both combine and all chase after one criminal, that's not very realistic to me, and I'm sure others would agree. Everytime I get arrested, I have to pay back half or more of my wealth on the server, what is the point in RPing a criminal if I'm getting over 7days in jail, which has very little RP anymore. Plus, you get citations which take half or more of your current paycheck, and cops make thousands, if not millions from their Government paychecks. (Seen screenshots and have been told by police members OOCly that their current wealth is ridiculous) if I now have to go to jail for 12 days, why should I have to pay 45k, or more in citations? Why should I have to deal with 5+ cops chasing me down and desync ramming me and forcing me to RP it? How about, you lower the citations, and have some more criminal aspects to the server, that don't require applications? Like making drugs easier to do so we don't have to apply for it? Or letting regular "civilians" become arms dealers instead of having the gangs do it? Make criminal RP more rewarding, or else the player count is going to keep dropping, lower the citations because of the already punishing jail times. Because, as I've said, the playerbase will keep dropping. I've stopped donating to the server due to this issue. I don't want to play on a server as a criminal if I'm going to have to pay ALL of my cash in citations, PLUS impound fees!? Lower the citations if I have to do 12 days and 20 hours in jail. NOTE: Once I've calmed down, and can put my anger and frustration into words that sound more and more professional, I will do so. However this will have to do until then.

I would like to apologize for the fact I haven't been keeping up with my own thread, I took an LoA because the server had begun to bore me, I want to thank you all for the support and the feedback, you're all legends! Love you all!

Honestly, even if we just got off road tires and kept the sports, I'd be a happy man. Yes, mate. I was referring to the Vanilla GTA rims, as well as the ones that come from the DLC's within GTA itself. However, modded rims would be a nice touch too! Yes, mate! Only muscle car I've found that has a single set of suitable rims for is the Gauntlet Hellfire, and even then I've had to lower it to make it look better for my eyes and others! I was saving this for a separate suggestion when we finally get the other tires, one step at a time type stuff. But, I do agree we will need this option, but rules will have to be implemented so people don't make absolutely ridiculous looking cars, for instance bright pink rims on a neon orange car, nobody'll take you seriously and we'll have a lot more hate towards the vehicles, so I am on the fence with painting the rims at the moment. Thank you! Sorry about that too, I was half asleep when I wrote this then took a break from the server! I'll fix that as soon as I possibly can! Kindly fuck off, you're not worth our time, if you don't support it, fine, I can accept that, but if you're going to cause arguments among other members of the community then I don't think you should be in this community. Ignore him, my guy. He's just here to cause problems and make the rest of the "car enthusiast" genre of roleplay look back. Just let him make a fool of himself and pay him no mind. You have my permission, Smonk. Hello, baby ❤️

Short description: I've seen people put custom rims on their vehicles and they all have low profile tires, meaning very thin tires, which in most cases, certain types of vehicles, such as a muscle car, would have thicker tires to facilitate the extra torque and the burnouts they have, and drift cars, or tuners, would have less traction and more rubber in order to prevent the tires burning out so quickly. Detailed description: I've noticed that everyone and their mothers have thin tires, unless they choose to use stock rims, which isn't very realistic, especially on some vehicles like muscle cars, or the more drift type cars such as the Futo. To facilitate having more rubber so you don't burn through your tire and end up with cracked or buckled rims for your vehicles, you'd choose to have more rubber and thinner rims. So, I have come up with the idea (and I have heard people talking about this in the past as well, it's not just myself) to add a categorization to the different tires within the mechanic shop menu, so rather than having it numbered with the same rims, you have to choose to go for "Muscle" rims for instance, as you would within GTA:Online or GTA V's base game, meaning more variety on rims, as well as having off-road tires for the vehicle that would have them and not just the same set of rims on everyone vehicle. It would also be nice to have colored rims as well, but that may just be pushing it, and some people argue that would be tacky, but done right and colored rims look very nice, however I would make another suggestion form for that in itself. Commands to add: None, it would be to add tabs onto the mechanic wheels menu. Items to add: Other rims and tires from GTA:O and possibly, in the future, modded ones as well. How would your suggestion improve the server? It would add variety to peoples vehicles, and if someone has a Sultan that they bought specifically for off-roading they would be able to put off-road rims onto it in order to avoid confusion between the fact that it can or can't go off-roading. And for the larger trucks that are more often used for such an act, you could have a different set of rims for them, and rather have the tiny pieces of rubber that would snap like a guitar string on the slightest of sharp edges.
