Daylong Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 The faction's essential goal is to maintain a high standard of roleplay while trying to illustrate a realistic view of a Tongan Crip Gang. We believe that factions are made and build by people and communities who are capable to develop and create unique characters, so the proper character development stands in the first place. If you would like to roleplay with us, simply approach us in Grove Circle or Covenant Avenue area. We would like you to start “small” and preferably with a backstory which fits the area itself and an appropriate age. All those characters who are above the age of 16 or “arrived straight from the Liberty City” are not getting accepted in the gang. If you are planning to join our faction you can freely join our faction discord down bellow. Link to the faction discord: https://discord.gg/M9TTtnXb5Q If you have any questions in regards to joining, about the faction or even have any tips or would like to get to know anything about the faction, feel free to private-message @Daylong or @Epic. Faction reserves the right to carry out a character-kill to any character that aspires to become a part of the faction (hangarounds). All members must abide by the rules, if broken punishment will be handed out by leadership. Link to comment
Daylong Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) Excerpt from Gang Profiles (source) Polynesian / Pacific Islanders Tongan families also moved from Tonga to the Los Angeles area in the 1970s and some Tongan youth joined gangs. In the Lennox/Inglewood area of California, some Tongan youth initially joined a predominately Black called the Raymond Avenue Crips. Some Tongan kids wanted their own identity and started the Tongan Crip Gang (TCG). In Seattle/King County, WA, some Tongans claim TCG and some belong to the Tongan Crip Family (TCF). The Salt Lake City and West Valley, Utah, area also has a lot of Tongan gangs, especially stronghold in the Rose Park and Glendale areas on Salt Lake City’s west side. There are TCG members in northern and southern California, Hawaii, Utah, and Nevada. (...) There may be Guamanian, Saipan, Fiji, New Zealand, and Marshall Island gang members. The close family ties of Pacific Islanders may cause other PI youth not involved in gang membership to be introduced to the gang and become associates or later full-fledged members. Loyalty to family is often easily connected with allegiance to the gang. The gang may take the place of the village on the islands. Family ties can also lead to difficulty in investigating crimes and prosecuting these individuals. Many times they will provide false alibis for family members. Witnesses may be reluctant to get involved due to their not wanting to be considered a “snitch”, being afraid of retaliation, or outcast from the extended family unit. Gang members will often intimidate witnesses, victims, or other participants with threats of violence if information is given.
