To think, after attending 100 clubs, they wouldn't even try one spliff? One line? One pill? Or, even one bottle? There isn't a SINGLE event in one's development that has their character so stressed-out that they actually consider experimenting with narcotics or alcohol? People, out here, witness murders as civilians and they shrug it off the next day... I don't mean this in an offensive way, but this makes me wonder how often you interact with people outside an illegal faction. The majority of non-illegal faction characters I know does marijuana, AT LEAST. A lot do ecstasy and coke occasionally, too. Maybe this is because I self-select and make legal characters with a seedy side to them, but still... And while I'm thinking about it, my illegal faction character has also given and sold drugs to legal characters. Taking one specific example, have you been to, say, ULSA? I am pretty sure you're aware that there are drugs being sold at ULSA,, and where do you think the drugs that are being dealt at ULSA go to? Parties get shut down because of drugs, the university implemented random searches because some characters were brazenly doing and talking about drugs in front of authority figures, or stumbling around after underage drinking, etc. I just don't recognize the game you're talking about.

Never claimed that it applied to every one, as my characters have interacted with countless members in U.L.S.A. It isn't a blanketed statement about all "legal" players. However, you have a good chunk of them that have this mentality. I dislike tossing around the "M'-word that ends in a "T", but those are the players that I am referring you.

Engelbert Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 My characters are regular drug users, well one is usually weed only, the other goes from cocaine to alcohol to weed and back every few days. Yet they are "legal" characters. Link to comment
ScottieP Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I tried selling marijuana around Los Santos. You won't believe it but someone said that his character was going to get cancer from it and most of the others were trying to sell their own inventory instead of buying so it seemed to me like mission impossible until I found someone that almost left me with nothing. Marijuana is the most healthy and used drug of them all IRL and still there is almost no one that buys any on the server unless you get lucky and don't tell me that I have no idea because it also seems as if everyone has their own 2 seeds at home.

If you were talking about drugs like meth and heroin, sure. Yes. And honestly, there should be a lot more drugs so people don't go from smoking a joint to shooting up tar. A lot more people would be likely to use some benzos and oxys, I think, that's a problem with the drug system that really should be looked at, I see a lot of people renaming ecstasy to other drugs because they simply don't exist. But I see a lot of drug use on the legal side, and have occasionally helped supply it on the illegal side. Link to comment

We do buy it. There's just dozens of players in your same position trying to sell it like it was the morning paper, riding around in bikes, cars and sometimes even high-end cars to stop a random bystander to offer them drugs. I usually keep a stash of about 50 units/grams of Marijuana (as a legal character) and I simply can't keep up with the amount of people that push their phone number on me or chase me around, calling me up to several times a day to see if I need more. Walking around South LS on foot, if you look over your shoulder it just looks like this: 1 Link to comment
orangejuice Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 all though in all fairness, a single shot is often 400-500 dollars lol Link to comment
Sim Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) All the drugs I do I portray through my own experience. I've never taken MDA or MDMA so I don't do meth IG, I've never taken cocaine so I don't do cocaine IG (that much) but I've done weed, lean & ket, so I portray how I remember feeling those times. My current character doesn't drink as her mental issues would probably get her hooked on it forever, she'll only begin drinking if character development brings her that way.

lambchops Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Realistically, seeing 50 cars parked outside a club is an indication that it's a lame club. Get wasted for once, folks. 1 Link to comment

Get wasted for once, folks. As a counter argument, there's a fair few players who don't actually know how to roleplay under the effects of drugs and alcohol. Screaming "COCAAAAAINE" with /s is not you being under the influence imo Link to comment
