  1. Add revolvers in general and add some of them to ammo-nation.
  2. Nobody is avoiding argument, because your argument has no relevant point. You are going 0 to 10000, I'm just trying to make sure that people stop fast-tracking car scene, because its bad and too simple. Sure it works for people who lack RP and creativity and don't focus on development. You don't need to RP getting education on mechanical phase when you are trying to RP one. It's about /present/ not the /past/. Its not 1:1 to match the certain time-frames with IRL. Waiting 2 up to 3 days maximum for a car to be fixed when its something complex (Engine swap, respray, transmission change) you know? Not to everything, there has to be a compromise. But soon as its something that can take week(s) to work on, it should just be a few days thing here. And people can simply use taxi's, buses or rentals to move around until mechanical depo's are done with their passive scene. Because mechanical scene is just a NPC-fest. People go there, get their cars done under 10 minutes and that's it. It just takes away the whole perspective on car scene. Like I said, sure...it works for non-important players who don't care about development and can't go-with-the-flow, that's their choice for not keeping it fun and realistic. But the fact is, this is a heavy RP server. Certain things have certain consequences and processes, you know? Yes, nobody wants to spend time getting their stuff...I wanna join PD, but I don't wanna spend week going through process. Writing an application, doing some exams, interviews, academy and tests? That's like, week+ of work and worry, but you don't see law enforcement dropping their standards any-time-soon about it, because its the right thing to do to avoid fuck-fest, pardon my language. I'm just trying to understand, why mechanical RP isn't being taken seriously here not here to pick any fights. Plus in modern world...automobile is one of the most important things in our life, but here...we treat it like some traveling tube and nothing more. Have some passion for your vehicle, respect your property. It's what makes RP and development fun.
  3. You are the one that's missing the point, bro. Anyhow, enough of bickering and your personal shit, let's get back on topic on how mechanical RP needs a huge improvement.
  4. I wanna walk into police department and do /joinjob instead of going through process. Thank you. Oh wait, that doesn't work like that nor it ever will. See what I mean, dog? Besides, you got rental cars for a reason. You got taxi for a reason. If you need to drop the car off and be without wheels for couple days, use alternative transportation. GTA W got buses, taxis, rental cars to offer. You could use those for period of time until the car is completed. That simple. Otherwise, you are kind of taking away those roleplay's purposes, you know? Why join bus company or taxi depo gig if nobody calls them? Because everyone gets their cars fixed up in 0.1 second when its something complex. Stuff like this can affect multiple RP'ers around it. It's the same thing if people just /b Skip car crash. That takes away FD's RP and PD's and FD can only survive based on the activity and certain accidents, that's how they are motivated to get on and RP this gig, you get me? Mechanical scene is no different. You can't look at mechanics as second class gig, but you can spend days in prison RP. Consequences, they are everywhere. So you can wait days for certain /other thing/, but you can't wait for a dope emersion around car scene? That's just not practical.
  5. Yeah, but...its not for them to decide, you know? When people run autoshops they are expected to provide the out-most effort and inspiration, its one of those things that make RP community humble and great, since everyone needs to get their cars fixed up, and with mechanics being one of the front-men out here for numerous people, we should focus on raising the mechanical RP standards and not turning it into "Need For Speed" modding. Where people roll up, quickly get a shitty catalog and get it modded. We are supposed to be a "heavy-roleplay" community, but when we take away vehicle RP...we ain't really serious anymore, you know? If we can provide detailed and PROPER roleplay around mechanical scene, people's admiration for RP itself gonna be raised up, because something "basic" as mechanical scene is done PROPERLY and REALISTIC. Don't have time for it? Can´t afford it? You won't get the job done. IRL you wait couple weeks to get crtain stuff fixed up, just depends on the garages timeframe and all that. Here, you'd wait couple days, 2-3...maybe longer if you willing to be cool about it and enjoy the stressful phone calls about the delays of project, that's what makes RP so good. These small little details and every-day-shit. Since when has the mechanical scene became a backseat thing? You go into shops and its just fast-tracked and emotion/passion free gig. People don't even take mechanical RP seriously, its just a "purgatory". People go there, don't give two cents about how and what, they just want their car modded and that's it. But if we wanna get technical, every shop is straight up breaking rules. Powergaming. They are fast-tracking certain modifications for a play-2-win act aka, milking cash. What happened to the RP scene? And how come we haven't enforced adaption on it? If we have more garage shops forcing RP, quality over quantity....we'd have way better admirations and views on mechanical RP and if people don't like it and can't adapt' Well...no car work for you. Since when its okay to drop standards and act like its all good? Every detail matters in RP community, why become a mechanical RP'er or auto-shop runner if you can't execute it right. I'm one of the autoshop runners as well and I promoted the new concept where, a complexed mechanical work would require couple days of RP, so I have people sell me their car, I /vbusiness it and I drop a "work-list/order" in the discord for the guys to keep track IC-ly around the clock of the paper-work/cars. They spawn the car and RP around it fixing it up, we use our own money to paint it, mod it and such...and in the end, we provide the client with the invoice and they pay it down. It's that simple creating something dope, and naaah...we aren't milking money at all, we don't care. We are here to RP and not use mechanical depo as some cash-boost. It's an insult if you ask me and I'm surprised nobody has raised an eyebrow about it. It's embarrassing to be even saying this. I know this is gonna sound unfair, but....if majority of players who don't care about RP concept gonna want easier way on getting guns, joining PD's take away the standards and quality, you guys gonna do it? It's just wrong,....badly wrong. @mj2002 I love the idea, really digging the illegal possibility and the /vehixleexam for cars could be cool. Like, cops always leave a sticker on someone's plate or a piece of note saying that, the car owner has to show up in 2 days or so to a police department's impound lot and get cops to inspect the car, sometimes they do it on-scene, but when its certain things that may be hidden under the hood / car. You'd need it brought to the departments motor pool.
  6. I agree, it'd be dope seeing unique grocery items. Shit, I got a dog ICly. And it'd be nice to see the /createitem of a dog-food 😄, because if someone messes with you (local authorities try to mess with you) you got an actual dog-food item and such, proving that you was just out to get groceries, little things like that matter and take it in a long way, you know? So I 100 percent agree. Just give these guys /createitem and we are all set.
  7. Name: JCountyBiker Movie 1: Nobody Movie 2: The Matrix Resurrections
  8. We need this /kickstand freezing thing. I read that some people said that, it may be bit messy? When was the last time anybody really "rammed" a line of bikes randomly? People need to RP doing it, so when they do...party of owned bike(s) can just quickly remove the anchor / kickstand thing and bang, solution fixed. We need this thing, badly.
  9. If it ain't white, it ain't right.
