This used to be a thing back when the server was created. After the move to RageMP in 2018 and the increase in players that followed, the system was removed. Random players were essentially farming them in high end sports vehicles that could very easily outrun police. At a time before vehicle mods were a thing, Sultans and Schafters were always seen outside 24/7s robbing them. On the off chance these vehicles could not outrun the cops, it almost always ended in a shooting. Following many smaller groups being punished for poor RP and DM stemming from these robberies, they had to be removed. At the current stage of the server, where the playerbase is four times as big and the overall RP quality is lower, this is not a good idea.

What system do you propose then, to avoid players standing for hours all for nothing, because the store ends up closing before an admin even takes it up? 

And you also have to take into consideration that the standards of roleplay before the move to RageMP was EXTREMELY POOR. It was comparable to GMOD. I don't think it'll be as bad as you say it was now, given the restrictions and regulations we have now.

There's certainly a middle ground between having something stuck behind admin permission and just allowing a free for all. The restriction does hold back a lot of potential RP from happening, but giving too much freedom will give us what we had before, only this time the meta cars are even faster and there's a lot more cheats being used on the server.

Perhaps allowing unofficial factions that have existed for X amount of time to do these as a way of proving they can uphold standards could be a fair middle ground. The previous issue was quite literally anyone could do it. The admin team simply does not have the resources to make sure the amount of robberies this system would create will provide a net positive to the server. Where if factions could get involved, all their leaders would theoretically have to do is tell their members to not pull up 4 deep in an STX with automatics and to not use it as an excuse to get into a shooting with the responding police. Something as simple as not using a meta car and not arming themselves like they're in a faction war for a simple store robbery would already be a huge step in the right direction compared to what has happened in the past.

An idea I've thought of was the potential to take screens of the robbery like you would for the port container scheme and send them to the admin team to review during downtimes to pay you out at a later time. Potentially after having to report for the go ahead to proceed.

i have an idea might be good or might be bad idk

 

why not have these kind of store robberies under a 'scheme' which is supervised by ifm and the players involved should have the freedom to pull them off without admin supervision. i think that'd solve most issues. figure out some workarounds surrounding them to prevent abuse while also allowing players to perform them when there's an opportunity.

Sometimes i honestly feel like there should be a team for robbery requests specifically due to how long they take lmao
