  1. Short description: Moving the advertisements from the chat into a menu which you can access via a command. Detailed description: Upon using the /ad(vert(isement)(s))(s) command (so /ad, /ads, advert, /adverts, /advertisement, /advertisements etc.), a menu will be brought up. It can either be a CEF menu (I believe they are called) or just a small, light, normal one. There's going to be four categories - All (all adverts), Private (for normal /ads), Business (for /bad) and Company (for /cad). This menu would also show in the X menu and in the I menu. Choosing either of these categories will show a live list of the adverts. 3 cool features that could be added An option inside the menu to use keywords and strings. A notification will be shown (like the SMS ones) whenever an advert containing your keyword or string will be placed (ex. "Kawaii", "House", "Out of Towners", "Hiring" etc.) An option to search through the ads based on specific keywords. (Optional) Whenever you post the ad, you could have the option of using a category (or none if you don't want to). We could have adverts divided between vehicles, properties, businesses, events, jobs, items etc. in the same place. The adverts would remain in the list until the person disconnects or removes them. Using /ad or /cad again (after 20, 15, 5 and 3 minutes as it is right now) will bump them to the top of the list. If the person posts a second advert, only the last one remains. It would not clutter the menu because everyone will either log off, crash, disconnect or delete their advert at some point. One way it could have been abused is if people were to post multiple versions of the same ad, thus populating the list with their ads only. This won't happen though, since only the last advert will appear on the list. I think this is pretty straight-forward and will go a long way towards helping people get in touch with one another without resorting to spamming /ad and hoping someone sees it on the spot. The chat would also be clean, the adverts neatly and simply organized and the menu easy to navigate. We'd also be able to get notifications whenever something an interest is advertised, thus not needing to check the list every X minutes and all in all, it'd be a great alternative to the very old system which we're currently using. Commands to add: CEF or normal menu for adverts containing the options described above. Items to add: N/A How would your suggestion improve the server? It's literally what we have right now but moved out of the chat, thus reducing spam and clutter, making everything more immersive and easier to navigate. Additional information: Until it's properly and fully implemented and developed, there would be a way to switch between receiving the ads in your chat, the old way, or in the new way.
  2. Short description: Raise the personal timer for every player with a donation package (Bronze, Gold, Platinum) to 15 minutes. Gold & Platinum still retain the ability to post a business ad and use /blip, but the cool downs should be longer. A global cool down of 5 minutes should also be more than sufficient. Detailed description: For Gold & Platinum packages, remove the additional personal timer cool down on advertisements. Keep them at 15 minutes (made available at Bronze) instead of 5 and 3 minutes respectively. Without donating advertisement cool downs are still on 20 minutes, so there is still an incentive to donate. Raise the global cool down to 5 minutes. There is plenty else on the packages to justify donating, this would just be a small change to reduce the amount of spam that we see on a daily basis. Commands to add: N/A Items to add: N/A How would your suggestion improve the server? This is not a total end-all-be-all solution, but this will at least help curb the amount of ad spam with businesses posting every 3-5 minutes. I understand that it's already against the rules to spam and advised to report, but sometimes the reports are never answered during peak times and even trashed. I've gotten reports trashed with a "report it if you see it again" for reporting people for spamming the same ad every 3 minutes. When blips are placed through /bad, they are on the map for 30 minutes. It's reasonable to say that a timer of 15 minutes should be more than sufficient to remind people that your business is open. Company ads are only supposed to be used to advertise when a business is going to open, promotions, hiring, etc. There's also no reason this needs to be less than a 15 minute cool down. The packages should be reworked so that advertisement cool downs do not go down the higher package you have. There is plenty offered between /bad and /blip for gold and platinum, among other things. The person and global ad timers should be 15 minutes and 5 minutes, respectively. Until a completely reworked solution comes out for advertising, I believe this will at least help.

  3. Short description: Implement scaling costs and time limits for repeat adverts. Detailed description: It's becoming very difficult for players and businesses to run ads due to the ever frequent macros/spam. Implement a system that scales the price and time for players and businesses to run ads in succession. First Ad - Regular Price - 3 Minute Cool Down Second Ad - Double Price - 6 Minute cool Down (Adjust for Gold) Third Ad - Triple price - 9 minute cool down. (Adjust for Platinum) and so on..... Commands to add: none Items to add: none How would your suggestion improve the server? Allows more diversified ads for all players and hopefully helps reduce the repetitive ad spam. Additional information: This can be circumvented by two or more people running the same ad content but it is what it is.
