    As long as the end price is marked up by a percentage depending on the make and model of the car. +1

    This would be my suggested idea. Pay a higher percentage price for the banks to allow you to finance it. 

  4. Detailed Description: We currently have the lease system in the dealership which allows us to lease the vehicle. However, there is no "buyout" option to pay the remainder portion of the vehicle if you choose to keep the car. In the current system you'll be leasing the vehicle forever and still keep paying the same monthly installment. My suggestion is simple, make it so we are able to lease the vehicle for X amount of months and at the end of X amount of months we get a 'buyout' option just like in the real world when you're leasing/financing a vehicle. This will only help the person out if they wish to have a vehicle and own it outright but doesn't have the funds to pay for the vehicle. However, just like in the real world, cash equals to no interest rate but when you're leasing/financing a vehicle through a dealership an interest rate is imposed and the vehicle would be sold to you at a higher price because of interest. 

     

    To make lease-to-buy fair, the player must have a 50% down-payment of the vehicle available at hand, they'll finance the remainder 50% this is to avoid any possible abuse from the system. 

     

     

    Relevant Commands/Items:  No command in-game. 

     

     

    How will it benefit the server?  Players can finance or lease to own a vehicle without straining most of their funds to purchase an expensive car. Instead they can pay it monthly overtime and have the ability to pay out the whole vehicle at the end of their lease or within their lease terms. This will create more realism and give players an option to purchase a desired vehicle they want at in partial payments every month.

    Okay, I take that back. Now I wonder why does SD need automatic corruption perms then, hm? Something that is given to them once they are out of probie stage and no one checks if they don't abuse it in non-ic ways? You think 100% of the department irl is corrupt? Not the case. This needs to change if I am honest, where people need good IC reasons and background story to give them those perms, yet, here, no need for it whatsoever. 

     

    Biggest issue no one checks if this permission is not abused to the point where it breaks server-rules, and trust me, if there is a way to abuse something humans will abuse it.

    Dude this thread is about SAPR and not LSSD stop derailing the topic with your baseless finger pointing please. 
     

    staying OT: This topic is about how we can improve SAPR to better fit the server. I can tell you have done zero research on how these agencies operate then go to an open forum to embarass yourself with the little information you know. If you have any inquiries regarding rules with IC corruptions in factions you should maybe talk to the faction leaders directly. 

  6. I find it funny to be truthful how we (the community) tries to simulate fictional Los Angeles and its counties but yet completely neglect to acknowledge the importance of CHP in Los Angeles. SAPR already does exactly what CHP would do. They are routinely catching speeders on the highway and act as a 3rd LEO function. Their priority isn't protecting wildlife, when they pull someone over in the freeways. It's just silly tbh.. Park Rangers acting as highway patrol, since when was that realistic? In this case since people barely hunt and visit the parks to justify the faction in this case it will be common sense to rename the faction to SAHP. They'll serve a better purpose all together.

    Nearly everyone has a gun already, how could it hurt the economy more?

    Thats what i'm saying too, it can't get much worse. Just curious why are we stuck in LS-RPs 2017 era when it comes to firearms licencing. It's basically a step back from realism.

    Enough framework already exists. But as long as people refuse to update the firearms licensing system nothing will ever change. We’ll remain stuck with this dated system that comes from a time where it was realistic for a SWAT team to parachute out of a helicopter. We have had dozens of opportunity to change everything else here, but when it comes to licensing it becomes a whole discussion. We’ve gone as far as selectively and aggressively bending the law and fabric of reality, “voiding” entire legal developments just to justify this old system. 

    I guess the only explanation is they're afraid this will hurt the server with more easy guns, its not like obtaining a PF isn't hard at all. There's one solution to this problem, just like the real world. Increase the CCW cost so much that it will make the average person think twice if they want to invest in one. Problem solved.

    The inherent difference between the EU and the US is that there generally isn’t an established right to take another persons life in protecting yourself and especially your property. 

     

    Yep the Castle Doctrine Stand-Your-Ground law. The majority of states, however California and New York are not Castle Doctrine they're "Duty to Retreat". Meaning taking someone's life is the last resort unless you clearly cannot run away from the crime and must use lethal force to protect your own life. As in Florida since we're a Castle Doctrine, If someone breaks into my home whether armed or unarmed I can take that persons life because he broke into my home. It has to be a forceable entry however. It's crazy how the south is, our home is protected under the Castle Doctrine. If you do this in California or New York you'll be charged with a felony murder, crazy..

    That's why I said I don't know how it works there. All I know I had a gun in my hand once irl. During Yugoslavian war, luckily I never had to use it. But I said, not again, like never again. Least I have no problem admitting I don't know something. It took me a year to accept that having a gang in Mirror Park IS infact realistic.

     

    Yeah no worries bro, I respect that. Nothing wrong with learning, we don't have degrees in 'life' lol. But yeah, the EU in my opinion is much safer then the U.S. because there is less guns and less Tyranny from police.

     

    Actually having a gang in Mirror Park is unrealistic as hell. Who told you that was realistic? Literally people who live in MP buy homes for 3-4 Million GTA:W currency. I would assume people who live there are middle class. I have no idea why we have a gang in MP and crime for that nature. There should be a control of where gangs can roam around etc, its like saying in the real world we have an active gang in 'Beverly Hills" where all the actors and millionaires buy their homes. Just not realistic at all.

    Well that I can understand. Honestly I don't even know what good cause is. I am from EU, in here you can legally obtain a gun ONLY IF, you are  LEO, Private security with a requirement for being armed, like money transport or personal body guard, lawyer or attorney. Other simply do not need a gun in eyes of our laws. Now I understand that US is built differently. And honestly despite SA being SA. In order to attain a realistic surroundings, competent representatives of each sector should go with California ruling, because SA is based on CA, it's a just a parody, because Rockstar meant it as Parody of California.

     

    That is exactly our point.... No offense bro, nothing directly at you btw.; much love to you. But people like you created LS-RP and moved on to GTA:World, not you necessarily but hopefully you get my point; with no idea on how the U.S. side of things really work. I play the game as is and respect whatever the owners bring to the table. But I am voicing my opinion here that this is exactly whats wrong with this server, "I assumed, I thought, oh thats how it works here in the EU". It's far from how it is in the States. The U.S. is very gun happy lol. I wish I can show you a picture, you can buy a burger, get a haircut and next door is a gun-shop so you can buy yourself a firearm and some ammo and call yourself an "American"; it's weird I know, we're protecting ourselves from Tyranny. 

     

    LS-RP was a server to be known to have a hybrid mixture of the U.S. and a bit of European taste to it. I remember we had the "HSIU" unit in the LSPD. Where we had a Cheetah/The Bullet" to chase after criminals in sports cars. I found that to be hilarious, obviously it was phased off at the last years of the server before it died down.

    I dunno why are people so obsessed with guns. They exist for one purpose only. To take lives. Then another thing sooo many people here seem to be getting wrong.

    Having a gun on the server not only doesn't serve it's purpose for legal gun owners....no drawing a gun at someone on the server will not deter them from what they are doing.

    It will only escalate the situation to the point they jump you again in an hour or so. This time with more people and guns so they can take yours. Showing them your gun is literally the only thing people can achieve here, to be robbed of it.

     

    You're missing the bigger point here, it's not being obsessed with guns, We're mimicking the United States (San Andreas is a fictional make believe of non fictional California) and here in the states the 2nd Amendment is huge /This is why, if you haven't already figured the game has a bunch of "Ammunation Stores" across the map, because Rockstar Dev made it a comical perspective of how the US is like. The game is literally a comical version of the U.S. people oversee that for whatever reason. Additionally It's our constitutional right to bare arms and we're trying to make the server a little more realistic by removing the Good Cause Justification that was eliminated about a year or so ago. Nothing wrong with that. My point is... Why mimic a real life country into a game and not keep up with the constant changes? 

     

    And yes, the CCW process here in GTA:W is nothing like the real world anymore. It used to be a thing maybe 3 years ago because California was, once upon a time a strict state to obtain a gun license. However things changed now, it just costs a lot of money because we don't want the average person carrying a firearm.

    The weapon license system was designed and brought over by people from LSRP, it is a continuation of that old system. It’s not in-character. It is entirely out of character with a “roleplay” jacket slapped onto it to justify its existence in the game world. If there’s anything due for a revision it’s our weapon licensing system and firearms in general. For whatever reason there’s people who take personal offense to suggestions like that. Often the same people who either helped create it or helped keeping it in place. Wanting something new and different doesn’t mean that what we had was bad, it worked for a very long time. But it’s old. The system and climate it was originally designed in doesn’t exist anymore. Why couldn’t we evolve the way we do licensing and guns? Why evolve everything else but simultaneously hold onto few archaic systems? It’s that inconsistency in development and lack of willingness to change and renew things that people keep pointing out. Stop being afraid to make your own things. 

    I mean yeah, this is what happens when there's certain people in power in this server who try to mimic the United States and its laws, but doesn't keep up with the changes within because they have little to no understanding of the US laws. That or they put a blind eye into it afraid of server repercussions making it easier to access a CCW. I assume they have access to the news just as much as we do here in the US, who knows.  

     

    Additionally this community was created by a small group of people who came from the old LS-RP in 2017. So they kept all their old ways of thinking and slapping a roleplay jacket to justify it just as you stated. The server is extremely far from realism and I live in the state of Florida moving from New York (The Anti 2nd Amendment State). It literarly took me 2 weeks to get my CPL here in the sunshine state. I went to a Gun Range, signed up for their CCW class it was a 3 hour course, got my Firearms Proficiency Certificate took my Certificate to the FWC (Florida Wildlife Conservatory) Office here in Florida; got fingerprinted, they took my picture presented my US Citizenship (i.e a passport is enough) and my social security card along with my Florida Drivers License. As long as your background clears, it literarly took me 2 weeks to get my CPL, now I can legally carry any amount of firearm I please, of-course it has to be concealed as Florida does not have an Open Carry law (Unless you're hunting/camping/fishing).  I assume obviously we're mimicking California, however like explained previously due to the SCOTUS case, Bruen vs. NYPSA all states are now "Shall Issue" and the CCW reasoning justification was removed because it was unconstitutional of our 2nd Amendment right to bare arms.

     

    I can school these kids all day, but honestly I feel that they won't change the current gun system assuming this will affect the server with more guns. I mean, then raise your prices. The 1,080$ I came up with was a YouTube video I saw about the cost of a California CCW, I believe its dependent on the county. I don't live in California so I could be wrong with the pricing. 

  14. Not sure why we still enforce the 'good cause' for CCW, when in the real world all of the 50 states have gone from "May Issue to Shall Issue" states. Especially after Bruen v. New York Rifle & Pistol Association https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf it was determined in the SCOTUS Supreme Court that this is unconstitutional and goes against the 2nd Amendment for the right to bare arms. Not sure if Los Santos will be included as a fictional state that was impacted by Bruens case. But if you look at the LASD website / NYPD as an example (https://lasd.org/ccw/), they have to adjust their CCW application to remove the 'good cause' portion followed by Bruen v. NYRPA 

     

    However, most states have discretion to increase their CCW fees to obtain a license. For example, in California it would cost you about $1,080 to obtain a CCW from beginning to end, and comes with a nice whopping 600$ renewal fee, to keep your CCW every 2 years. This is done so you don't have someone in poor low income areas getting easy access to a CCW and you'll think twice about paying for a firearm license. Since we're roleplaying a fictional city in California, make it according to GTA$ currency. So, 1,000$ will realistically be 100,000K$ for a license, with a 60K renewal fee plus all the hurtles to be competent with a firearm, i.e. go to a firearms course etc., not sure if someone would rather pay 100K for a license or buy a car with that.

    Your honor, Deputy Emilio Velasquez, thank you for having me. I was the only deputy survivor in that incident taking a few blows to my groin and was in an induced coma at Pillbox Medical Center after losing almost half of my blood. Doctors were convinced I wasn't going to make it; I went on an extensive two weeks FMLA recovery from my job and back on the force on modified duty to fully recover. I am grateful and thankful to god to be alive today. I have a family that still needs me and the hardest part about my job is not knowing if today I'll come home to my girls. I want to share with you my experience and testimony.. On February 13th  02:40 I was assigned to Radio Car Paleto Bay 65 Edward serving the Vinewood Area. I was routed by the Sheriffs Communications Center, AREA Tactical 1 for a vehicle pursuit on a red four door and I joined the pursuit as a backup radio car that day, on the pursuit line which is atypical with the LSSD. Not much to be said about the pursuit however the suspect drove to La Puerta and barricated himself inside a business or home of some sort. We stacked up ready to breach, following orders from the initiating unit, we was located about less than a mile south from the heliport. Suspect barricaded himself, before I describe to you what I saw inside, I want to let you all know, I was as sober as most judges that day so I'll explain what I saw inside that structure; I was inside somewhat of a submarine style interior of some-sort, bulky heavy doors, it looked like a bunker of some sort. Me and a few of my colleagues who are no-longer with us was sprayed and slaughtered like animals as soon as we entered the structure, didn't even have time to return fire. It felt almost like a movie at that point, I tried to turn my back and leave the premise, however I was knocked down due to blood loss right outside onto the street. 

     

    Now your honor, this man here, is careless of preserving life and is a danger to myself and others in the community. Bail should not be granted, additionally doesn't deserve to see not a blue or dark sky, not a shine or dim of light, not a bird in sight. From now on, his only daily sightseeing should be 4 inch thick heavy duty steel walls for the remainder of his life.

     

    That's my testimony today, thank you, your honor. 

     

    **Emilio Velasquez would sob a bit, wiping his tears with a napkin as he explains his part of the story, taking a seat in his bench thereafter**

    Yes I totally agree, if it wasn't for Blaine Aviation discord I wouldn't have known about the no fly zone over Vespucci for the coming days. Make things simple for QoL OOCly, +1

    Perhaps a prompt could appear when you get into the pilots seat of a plane *A NOTAM was published on [Date] then you can manually go and check it out in depth. 

    Piggy backing on Late, aside from the UI it'll be nice to get a warning line indicating said TFR and location. 
     

     

    This is a must needed addition to enhance aviation RP in the server.
