I feel your pain I like dealing drugs and all the roleplay that comes from it.. idk if adding NPCs would fix that, and I wouldn’t want it to replace the interaction and development I get from an actual player. In my opinion, People seem to usually over emphasize or under emphasize the role of drugs in their characters development (you either buy drugs because that’s your characters whole identity or people feel that their character is too good to use drugs) or because they already have a huge stack because they are in an illegal faction. The reality is that you have Bill and Marry smoking some pot, slipping some scotch into the green smoothie, taking a bump at a gathering, etc. people in real life are using drugs left and right for various reasons but this is just NOT being represented by this or any roleplay community at large. It kinda limits the role play in both illegal and legal side of things. At the end of the day, it’s just how far people are willing to go for the realism and if they will put in the effort to represent that. However, I always thought a good way to incentivize drug consumption, in place of the NPC idea, could be with a drug rebuff script. To explain, after some time of not taking a drug or consuming alcohol the screen would change (changing into something fuzzy, or mildly annoying) based off a set timer. Something like a hunger bar that some fiveM have?

Evidence for anything you said? Nah, giving out the "whole story" is usually just noise to distract from the report. They had to add a limit because people would really drag on and on and usually talk about nothing relevant. It keeps it concise and if you can't explain yourself within a paragraph and any evidence you provide then you probably deserve the admin's action. If your report or response to said report, is like an essay then someone should have reported something much sooner before it even escalated to that point...

I agree with you that drugs are not taken In large amounts like how it is In game.But I was tryna say that just because the inventory says a certain thing, that it’s not exactly what your character is taking. So, Its assumed your character isn’t snorting one gram but rather some reasonable amount. But I /think/ the way it’s currently designed is meant to consider the whole economy behind drugs in general in a roleplay server.

The only faction I actually enjoyed waring with.

Idk about this. I feel like this is a huge micromanagement issue On a server were you are making assumptions through your roleplay. Cocaine for instance is sold per gram on this server- one use and it’s gone. However, when taking cocaine you aren’t snorting one gram in a line because you’d die. Also, It’s probably unlikely you are going to come across anyone snorting .1 grams, as well, in just one line. People usually binge this drug throughout all the night taking small dosages throughout the binging period. Cocaine in this example has a very short period where one experiences a euphoric high or whatever, on top of being an expensive drug, people consume little amounts at a time and usually pace themselves throughout the binging process. I see what you’re saying though, but, at the end, it’s roleplay and if you want to roleplay binging you could probably buy a couple grams consume the usages throughout that time but roleplaying as a different amount. TLDR: i feel like a change like the one promoted by op could possibly LIMIT the roleplay instead of realistically trying to portray it.

W interaction with this faction so far. Keep it up.

Run it up 🏃‍♂️
