-1. Next up y'all gonna get some bright idea not to wear gloves because they are used sometimes during hits. Shower yourself with cold water, wake up. Y'all steady keep trying to make this server into Sims. Soon enough we're gonna have to request a permission to kill someone on the forums.

Bro that’s what it is for real.

 

THE SAME REASON WHY WE CANT USE A FUCKIN CAR FOR A ROBBERY WHEN IN REALITY 98 PERCENT OF ROBBERIES IN LOS ANGELES INVOLVE A (STOLEN) CAR. 
 

We posted 4 fuckin pages of different IRL cases but because the civilian RPers whine about everything that isn’t cat ear lesbian bars or pansexual cafes we now have to do robberies on foot. An IFM member told me that if the robbery is planned out you can use a vehicle. But some admins don’t even think that and even if there’s multiple days of planning it’s still invalid. 
 

We robbed this dude Lucien Borjue or whatever for 1.7M outside of the casino that was closed. We was setting this shit up and waiting for 2 hours. Then cuz we didn’t get “permission” to use a fucking car it gets voided (no surprise there). My boy spent all of his half and said idk what to tell you to the admin. The admin set this mans bank account to negative 700k lmaoo

 

EDIT: video was 🔥 too ong me, @Writer and @speizkillerput that work in 😈

If people didn't MG so much via namechecking, people wouldnt be wearing masks as much. The amount of times I've seen people get shot in retaliation to something, despite them having an entirely different outfit on & shit, JUST because of their nametag is wild.

Because it was overused. Nobody was RPing outside because every 5 minutes they'd get robbed by some random group of 4 "gangsters" in a black STX that do zero roleplay other than riding around robbing every person they see,  mow down cops who try to stop them because "we just robbed someone & thought we were wanted" then PK out of any form of consequences by shooting it out with the cops, only to just start the same process all over again.

 

Even in areas which realistically would never have robbery crews, people would do it. Hell, even now I see people getting robbed right outside of police stations & government buildings IG, which would rarely, if not never happen.

 

Robberies are way overdone & its because most robbers only care about one thing, and thats guns.

 

The rules aren't the problem. The people who's mindset is nothing other than getting as many guns as possible are the problem.

The rules were put in to avoid the constant trollish nonsense of 4 deep robbery crews doing nothing other than robbing people.

I’ve never been robbed on this shit one time. Across 4 characters, 1 of them being very high profile gun supplier who would be the ultimate robbery target. I think yall just aren’t situationally aware and are just lacking too much. People will see 4 ppl in masks circling in a mask and just stand there like they think it’s a challenge or they’re hard. The same people whining on the forums in a forum report about getting robbed when they have 2 guns and 400K on them thinking they’re Chapo Guzman.

 

i agree you had people overdoing it. But then I hear you say in areas people would never get robbed, do you mean the rich gentrified areas? Cuz that’s literally where you go to rob people IRL and ppl get robbed in LA in Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Rodeo, Melrose, Fairfax, Malibu, etc and the list can go on. I’ve literally seen somebody get stripped in West Hollywood IRL in under 4 minutes and nobody did shit or helped the person. Why would you want to rob some homeless/poor tweakers in South Central or the Valley (SFV) or the IE when you can rob a way more lucrative and easier target in WeHo, Beverly Hills, Studio City, etc.

Make an illegal character first and post 10 sets of screenshots and I will look into your opinion.

Not going into shady places of LS to not get robbed is an IC issue, having fear of being robbed is also an IC issue. You can't make Sims out of GTA. Shootouts with cops also aren't rare. Nowadays PD is protected like polar bears with the current rules which is complete bullshit. And I don't get the robberies are 'overdone' thing, robberies aren't exactly a Tik Tok trend or am I wrong?

 

Also, you mention that people are robbing because of guns. Now this might be a first for you but check this, would you believe me if I told you that people rob people..... for their assets...

And I think you probably like running around in a mask all day, we're in California, its very warm most of the time and we've got gangs of people running around with masks on for no obvious reason, just that they want their identity kept from the rest of the server. Masks have a purpose for illegal RP, not day to day wandering the streets.

no you're wrong, some people wear masks just to wear masks IRL for fashion

That's because you're unwilling or unable to understand the reasons why this rule is in place. This has been discussed over and over again in countless of threads. However, you (not you personally) just refuse to accept the reasons why these rules are in place. When an explanation is given to you, you ignore it. When it is explained to you what you should provide in order to resolve this situation, you dodge the discussion and just complain. Guess what? Complaining doesn't solve problems, and it doesn't get you anywhere closer to a situation where robberies involving cars are allowed again.

You can keep caps locking all you like for the next 15 threads about this same topic, but until you start engaging seriously nothing is going to happen. Do you actually want a solution?
