they are clearly not mexicans nor bandits, who approved this?

This. If you're crying that LS has less players, then you're just complaining about your assets. The fact that LC released and is doing so good is good for the community overall as it shows that people wanted a change. Instead of Nervous supporting LS, he should just focus on whatever the community prefers.

I can confirm that the moment you do a crime or anything against your agreement while on parole you get thrown back in.

If you had a three strike system you'd just push people to commit murders on LEOs more often to avoid getting a strike

When people can't be trusted with something then "RPG" might be the solution.

I am unsure if there's some OP attachments but the one time I used the Navy rifle it felt like it was kicking wayy too much when tapping.

I do hope that people that got banned for reasons such as doxxing or other IRL related stuff stay banned.

I might be wrong but I am pretty sure it's literally like two or three lessons and an examination, it's not much. I don't like it either but I'd prefer not to let anyone have a license.

There might even be 7 patrol cars and it could still be just a traffic stop. You cannot know it's not a traffic stop until it isn't.

What would an IC reason to change your name be? Genuine question.

TS3 is mostly used during pursuits and a wheel where you select what to say does not in any way equal to that. LEOs have the advantage of TeamSpeak, yes. However, both sides are not supposed to be equally as "powerful". Cops have their advantages and criminals have other advantages. TeamSpeak is fine as is.

There's a couple blatantly obvious self-inserts in the community and I am surprised that the staff team hasn't said anything about them. I'd say it's definitely a fact that if you roleplay a self-insert, then if something happens to your character you take it personally. I'm not sure if adding extra measures or what not would be productive or a good idea but they're definitely not good.

I'd say bad idea since they are logging in and teleporting to TTCF to actively participate in an already on-going event. Imagine if you went to rob a house/drive-by someone and suddenly all of their friends spawned there.

Remove restrictions on factions and instead judge concepts by the people in them and their roleplay. If the roleplay is garbage, close it down.

How's that robocop behaviour? If you need to go, you need to go. I'm not gonna start budgeting my available playing hours to do X amount of on-duty roleplay and Y amount of off-duty roleplay. I roleplay what I like each day.

The issue is not when a few people do it for a valid reason, it's when everybody does it like before vehicle robberies were disallowed. It's understandable that people do it IRL too like a lot of other things that aren't allowed here but are we supposed to wait until South LS is turned into a masquerade party?

I haven't seen anyone rock cat ears in such a long time. People wearing shiesties and using /maskname or going around 24/7 gloved up and masked up for zero reason is an every day occurrence.

In case people haven't seen the replies from the staff team in the previous pages, you may request a weapon to be fixed by an admin if there was a valid reason for the looting and it was properly roleplayed. So it doesn't punish everyone, just the people who go around looting.

I used to own a small goth dive bar literally twenty feet from Mission Row. Yet I always had people coming over from God knows where to cause trouble. Minors getting mad they're not getting alcohol, drunk people trying to start fights, one dude tried boarding the outside of the business up because he got mad for whatever reason, people trying to extort you for whatever reason. It just put me off owning a business because realistically I chose this place for "protection" since LSPD was 5 seconds away and my character wouldn't have money to pay for continuous security/taxes. This wasn't only my business too. I've seen people try to extort businesses in front of all the people, criminals (I won't say faction names) coming in groups and turning the experience for everyone sour and the list goes on.

If the vehicle has no plates scriptly, we already get a no plates indication.

Just letting you know that no matter if your car's model has a plate or not, the plate is RPly there unless an admin has removed it. You can /report to have your plates removed.

Sure, I wouldn't mind. But there's way more backlogs, supervision and checks in-place to make sure that cops actually did a warrant such as the judges that approved the warrants, all the information on the specific department's website and MDC etc. If a random person breaks into an apartment, then the admins would need to go over every single person that broke into a property and make sure they've actually posted everything.

Perhaps cops can do warrants without admin supervision. But after each warrant, the person in-charge of the warrant has to post the chat logs somewhere where the appropriate admins can see what went down.

If you NC to a new name then you lose all records. If you NC back to your old name, I believe the record returns.

On the same vein my biggest pet peeve are people who are basically roleplaying Jason Bourne. They name-change then they only buy non-contract phones, they never buy a property (just renting from friends), they never buy a registered car. It's basically like they're living under the grid when I am sure in real life you would have something on you regardless of your financial or social status.
