Tony White Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 How would you guys feel about the idea of making a forum that's private for illegal rpers. It will obviously be monitored by IFM or even LFM, and it can be a place where illegal rpers get to voice their concerns, or even post suggestions to better the scene on the server. Obviously this forum section will be exclusive to illegal rpers handpicked by IFM and faction leaders on the server. The discussions and topics that will be discussed will obviously be monitored by IFM, and obviously since it's only people who are known in the scene or run factions, the dialogue should be good - and hopefully better the scene on the server. 3 Link to comment
joshua Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 there's already a discord for illegal FM & faction leaders/higher ups, don't see why that needs to be reproduced on the forums 1 Link to comment
.Pluto. Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 +1. There is a discord for illegal community, but still, it can get messy there, so yeah. Subsection on the forums sounds good. Link to comment

On the forums it's more formal, and people will always contribute more. And also instead of the chat getting clattered up, it will be easy for IFM to see everything. Someone will post a thread on a certain topic, and people can discuss the said topic. There's a big difference between forums and Discord. 1 Link to comment
Ketamine Kowboy Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Would be useful, discord has the difficulty of discussing multiple topics at once, it's near impossible to keep it comprehensive for any admin who wants to read back on it. Link to comment
SCANDALOUZ Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Illegal RP doesn't need a think tank. It needs Jesus, because it hasn't (or has barely) moved since 2008 Godfather script RP. 1 1 2 Link to comment
borhoi Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 That'd quickly and easily turn into an echo chamber. If people want to air out ideas about RP, be it legal, illegal, or just civvie stuff, let it be aired out for the whole community to talk about far as the forums here go. 2 Link to comment

Why does it need to be aired out infront of the whole community? I’ve seen multiple discussion on the forums where they start off good, but end up getting derailed. This solely will be a platform between illegal players, and Ifm/lfm to monitor it all. 8 hours ago, SCANDALOUZ said: Illegal RP doesn't need a think tank.

Trupiano Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 I don't think we should section the community off like that. When it comes to discussing the community everyone should be able to voice their concerns, even if those concerns are invalid or completely baseless from the prospective of those of us near the issue. What I would like to see however is staff coming down more and making official statements on shit. The thread about extortion should have been closed weeks ago, From what I've seen the stance by staff right now is "deal with it IC" yet there's no official comment stating this, instead the threads allowed to continue to fester and spread more misinformation. 1 Link to comment

It's not really about sectioning off the community, that's not what I'm proposing here. People should definitely still voice their concerns, especially the civilians on the server. I'm talking about a section that is closed, and monitored. A place where people can discuss issues they have, or even suggestions. Once something is discussed, IFM can inform the rest of the community about it if they ever want to implement the suggestion. This will be a section for IFM/LFM, and illegal roleplayers. A place where everyone can voice their opinion and contribute towards the illegal scene. The only way to better the scene on the server is if people can engage in discussion.
