  1. Introduce RICO acts make it scriptable and if you get caught you've gotta do a month, two month whatever but a long bit of prison time. Don't just make it so any tom dick or harry can bash you a 1-3 month sentence either. Make it based around a full investigation, where the gang unit/investigative unit posts development screenshots constantly to a PRIVATE thread only they can see detailing the investigation, pieces of evidence etc. Admin must approve before they act upon the investigation and arrest, then take to court and trial giving lawyer RP judge RP etc. It'd create loads of RP. Admin approval checks for metagaming, powergaming, all that kinda stuff. Now that would make criminal RP more fun, can you imagine if your gang is getting sloppy and blatantly asking businesses outright if they can extort? And 60% of the gang gets sent down on RICO for a month? I'm sure they'd be a lot more careful in the future. It'd create a power vacuum in the gang where people try and pick up the remains, take over certain trades whilst people are away, fuck peoples wives, all things that happen IRL when criminals go to prison and would be absolutely great RP opportunities. Instead it's like, oh wow I got caught with a gun, shame not one of the people I sell large quantities of drugs to or businesses I extort will even notice cos I'll be back on the streets by tomorrow. Instead it should be "fuck I got caught on a RICO/with a gun and Firstname_Lastname has been trying to move on my drugs business for a while, he's gonna take over whilst I'm gone" Also would lead to criminals meeting other criminals in jail, networking out of their social circle they usually roleplay in which, let's be real, is the same group day in day out for most people. Creates more RP all around in an infinite amount of ways, either lengthier sentences or a functioning RICO act would create shit tons. Would give criminals more incentive to be discreet instead of going on 'List open businesses' and working their way down, asking each single one to extort cash because there's absolutely no consequences for doing so. Would also mean prison have a bit more depth to it. The issue I found rping in prison on lsrp was also the only people you interact with are active prison RPers and it was rare you'd deal with bikers, la cosa nostra, and other misc rpers cos they just AFK their sentence down.

  3. I’m not too sure on sentence lengths so I wont comment on that. It’s true though, people who view prison RP as ‘OOC punishment’ have the wrong view on RP. The point is an accurate as can be portrayal of a criminal lifestyle, prison is part of that. But if you get involved with prison RP you’ll find it can be quite fun getting into the politics of the yard. If you go into it thinking of it as an OOC punishment then you’re not gonna have fun. Prison RP is flawed, I did a lot of it on LSRP, but the biggest issue I found that made it so tough was people coming in and softly trolling, like lowkey trolling or just blatantly. They’d come in, wouldn’t RP prison politics and they knew damn well they could because they’d be out in 5 hours. And that was without time running down offline. The guy who said about investigations is right too, a lot of effort and dragged out RP just for the guy to log for 3 days and be out doing his thing all over. I support longer sentences cos it promotes good criminal and prison RP. Maybe I would be weary to drive across the city with 2 ounces of coke and a pistol if I knew I’d face some time and was known to IC police, I’d maybe take the back routes, hire someone to take it for me, who knows? the best RP I had was gang unit on LSRP shaking me and my friends down all the time, busting our balls. But that was in a group where the norm was to stay and RP in prison for a while if caught, so the stakes of getting caught were high as I’d be taken off the streets for a while. Was fun, people should try it.

    BERTELLI

    Frankie Bertelli is a thirty-nine year old from San Fierro. His grandparents on both his paternal and maternal side are Italian immigrants. Frankie has worked on and off jobs his whole life, usually on or around the minimum wage, occasionally dabbling in very small amounts of crime, such as buying a quarter of cocaine and selling it to his close friends and colleagues. His parents always opposed the criminal lifestyle and hoped this would rub off onto Frankie. However, he is well known amongst his friends and family for being the black sheep of his hard working family, both a reckless drunk and a very greedy man. He currently is not in touch with his elderly mother and father after borrowing $10,000 from them to pay off a loan and blocking their numbers.

  7. Got my support 100% It might seem far fetched or extreme to people who haven't done prison rp before, I did quite a bit on LSRP and it feels like an uphill battle constantly against tourists coming in for a few hours and not rping fear or politics - you end up feeling like you can only RP with your immediate faction and other prison factions Totally breaks your immersion n rp when you've got a black guy coming up to the entire white car like "fuck u racist ass crackers" or a white guy running around the surenos area and causing shit then when you tell him the rundown he just starts punching u or /s some bullshit Only a very small portion of people rp the fear of having a gang of people policing the system and the politics like segregation etc so you just find urself with a handful of people to actually rp with some guy comes up and causes some shit cos he's not rping fear/politics then you and your two pals get put in isolation for fighting him as that's how ur characters would realistically respond and that's the 3 of you out of RP for however long you get for it - get out and the same just happens again And whoever said above that it would reduce violence in prison rp is totally right prison rpers just wanna depict a prison car realistically it's not about fighting and stabbing 24/7 nobody wants to do that shit - not sure about the IC politics here but in my own experiences if you wanted to fight someone (speaking for the white car) you had to go get permission before you did it from the shotcaller the violence isn't a main motivating factor
