    Yep! I'm all for implementing rules rather than straight up disabling or taking away a certain thing/way/action. 

    Then it's also easier to weed out non-RP'ers and the likes.

     

    Win - win. Suckers get jailed and later banned, those who abide remain.

    Justice!

     

    So you're advocating for the current situation where this remains a problem? It's already powergaming.

    Maybe you don't like it that it's Jim Crow era over there but it's the way it is because of all the roleplay done over the years.

     

    Regardless of which bad faction spawned in and instigated whatever with the locals, or how any factions conduct themselves in the county right now, I think this is just a bad take and you should reconsider this position.

     

    Sandy Shores didn't used to have a Jim Crow era when I roleplayed there for a literal years, on multiple characters. Many different MC, peckerwood, hispanic, and generic organized crime factions came and went during these years. Some were trash and got closed, some were decent, and some were good. Many of these factions had aversions to outsiders, and some specifically to black characters. However, those decent players that have roleplayed around Sandy extensively would welcome and respond characters depending on how they presented themselves. You look for trouble, you get trouble. You try to get along, then you may get along. But at no point was there any vague, clear, or otherwise 'general understanding' that Sandy Shores portrayed anything remotely close to a Jim Crow era. I would strongly advise you to look up what Jim Crow means in practice and then return here and withdraw this statement.

     

    If you seriously think Jim Crow is an inspiration for how you should conduct roleplay scenarios anywhere in this server, then I don't know what to tell you. Seriously, just rethink your position on this.

    If the comments and description are to be believed, there is an issue with LODs for the Annis Roxanne.

    The Penaud Gaulle (and possibly anything published by VanillaWorks, iirc) comes with a license that prohibits it from being monetized without permission. That might become an issue.

    The FXT reportedly doesn't have LODs. I'm curious as to why we need an additional Hellfire that doesn't look all that different.

    I'm pretty sure we already have the Dubsta and the Hachura R.

    I'd say if vehicles from the base game are eligible for being a charity car, then they should be put on the lease list instead.

    That Oracle has been suggested so many times, I just assume there's a technical problem as to why it hasn't been added. The Dominator, Vigero and the Stallion seem to have some LOD issues. 

     

     

    List of vehicles that would be cool to add;

    It's not that, the more rules you create, the more rulebreakers you'll have. Acting as if no other server was ever successful that had different rules is nonsensical.

    Take a look at the rules, server's got more rules than Saudi Arabia. Like someone suggested above, what should be tried is fixed punishments for PG, MG, DM and things like that. 

     

    But this is of course not how it all went down. Years ago, there were far fewer rules. But a substantial amount of people keep finding new ways to fuck other players over, in a community that's supposed to be about collaborative storytelling. Slowly but surely, as these play to win metas develop, new rules are necessary to negate the negative effects of this behavior.

     

    None of this is because people file petty reports.

    It's like saying, can we eliminate criminals from existing? No, you can keep locking them up but they'll always exist.

     

    This is why, famously, we no longer have police or a legal system irl any more. Why bother, right?

    For someone who was an admin once and was involved in making of these types of rules you have a seemingly clueless persona on why bodycams aren't roleplayed and the OOC reasons behind it.

    Realism only when it suits you.

    Because it's an IC Issue, yes. 

    I'll wait for the moment when the majority of forum posters that claim to represent illegal roleplay agree with you on this point.

    Been a few days that I noticed we have a bunch of petty forum reports and since I came from another community, I genuinely want to understand why's that.

     

    Probably because those that file the report have a genuine belief that a rule was broken? Either that, or they're trying to get something out of a report that benefits themselves.

    I would rather there be in game and in character repercussions instead of crying about it OOCly. 

     

    So then we don't have OOC concerns about body cameras either, right?

    you keep talking like there’s a fucking consensus among the entire server that this is good. There isn’t. Y’all are the only ones who want this shit. The overwhelming majority of illegal RPers do not.


    y’all basically said if you don’t stop getting robbed there’s gonna be no legal RPers. I don’t understand how the fuck you can get robbed multiple times. You see a car full of 4 masked ppl spinning and you stand outside. Get in a fucking car and drive off or go inside, it’s pretty simple. 

     

    There doesn't need to be a consensus. This isn't a democracy. These rules were set in place and Nervous has repeatedly explained that they aren't going to removed without an alternative that works for the community at large. Just because a group of people on the forums don't like them and refuse to provide a realistic alternative doesn't mean your input is now suddenly to be taken seriously.

     

    Again, all you're doing in this thread is continuously repeating your dislike for the rules in place. We already know this. You're not bringing anything new to the table. We've had these arguments dozens of times before you decided to grace us with your input in this next round of useless forum arguing. When are you going to seriously engage with this topic? Instead of just going back and forth and getting this thread locked, why don't we start now? In order for this to be resolved, there needs to be a solution to the following problem:

     

    Simply allowing vehicles to be used in robberies revives the meta where you can roll up in a group of 2+ to literally anyone walking around in the city, and through the use of the powergaming rule, instantly put anyone in a position where they either surrender their possessions or be reported for powergaming (not roleplaying fear). 

     

    Now, this is the part where you come up with a solution that allows the use of vehicles, and doesn't revive this meta. No more complaining about groups of people, legal roleplayers, illegal roleplayers, mallrats, grudges, or whatever keeps being conjured up. Just address the actual issue for once.

    its the same with rpqm reports, they ask you for the evidence while its nearly impossible to obtain solid evidence of the accused players sometimes.
    No evidence = report closed

     

    You may be overthinking this a little bit. You yourself have a reasonable suspicion that someone's roleplay quality is awful, right? Otherwise you wouldn't be considering to make a report to begin with. Whatever lead you to the conclusion that the roleplay is substandard, you can submit as evidence. Take some screenshots of whatever convinced you yourself, go to the UCP and copy some chat logs that you witnessed, record a video if you're in a position to do so, and then submit that as evidence. They're not asking you to present a foolproof case that could withstand scrutiny in a court of law. They just need to have a good reason to spend time on investigating it.

    Legal RPers absolutely do have an effect on rules, legal RPers are for sure to blame for us not being able to use vehicles for robberies. Because they’re the majority of robbery victims which isn’t just cuz there’s an OOC agenda against legal RPers. It’s cuz legal RPers (besides cops) don’t have the same situational awareness as illegal RPers because they aren’t used to being in faction conflicts. Same reason they normally can’t shoot as well either (besides cops).

     

    I don't understand why you keep repeating the same talking points over and over again without actually engaging in a meaningful discussion. There have dozens of threads about this, and every time the answer is the same. If you want to use vehicles for robberies again, then come up with a way in which this can be achieved without creating a meta where a few dozen players can ruin the experience of roleplaying on this server for pretty much everyone else. That's what the situation was before, and pretending it didn't happen or that it wasn't so bad isn't going to change anything.

     

    All you come up with is 'This is unrealistic and it should be allowed again', and then conveniently ignoring the consequences of implementing your ideas. When you make a substantial change in the rules, you have to consider all the reasonably expected impacts that this change may have. Are you willing to do this? If so, then please demonstrate for us how this would work and what your plan is for mitigating the glaringly obvious flaws in your approach. Is that really too much to ask? Once again, do you actually want these changes or do you just want to complain about this topic?
