Name Changes do not effect your licenses, but your character will lose all 'charges' and 'imprisonments'.... Licenses stay the same!

That's a good way to dump car's out of the economy... only thing is, it brings money into the economy as it's money from an NPC not another player.... -1

I don't know what I was thinking when I typed that out XD 100k is far too much! 1)1000 kilometres = Car starting to degrade 2) 1500 kilometres = Prompt for a new engine or scrap the car *Kinda like a engine warning light in a real car* 3) 2000 kilometres = Engine Dies either replace or scrap Replacement Engines should cost 50% of the STOCK price... has to be specific to the car... @aon

Yeah, I updated it to the full numbers... it get's real confusing without the full numbers

Mechanics.... 100%. Makes the most sense there!

I think the cars 'degrading' should be a longer process than what you said... 1) It's more realistic that way... cars don't just start to fall into pieces that quick, it's takes decades for that process to come around... It makes more sense for cars to start to degrade after 100,000 kilometers of driving... (Driving from AutoRepairs to Bayview is already 4.5-5 KM) 2) Engine Replacements should be 50% of the vehicles stock price, it does not make sense that a T20 and a FUTO pay the same amount for a new engine..... 3) Engine repair propmts should begin after 150,000 kilometers of driving... 4) Scrap or Replace Engine should be done around 200,000 kilometers of driving...

That's exactly how it works in real life.... it's called 'SECOND HAND'

+1 - Great Idea! This would be perfect for dealing with the problem we are having

I understand what you are saying about buying and selling cars being a money sink.... Here is an example of how this is destroy the economy, if people keep under selling cars... especially MAXED OUT cars below stock. 2 Negatives will come from this.... 1) Dealerships now have no use as you can buy the same car MAXED OUT for less 2) The $ value in game would also depreciate due to the value of assets not being what they should be.... @flow

I would assume so, although Andor owns a dealership so he might know the facts...

Then maybe a system where the dealership owners can 1) Decide if they want to buy cars under import from players / or decide to opt out 2) Maybe set which cars they want to buy and how much they are willing to pay for example maybe you set it up so that you can only buy warreners and you max pay out is 5,000 maybe something along those lines?

Where would that money come from? The Dealership Owner? I don't know anyone willing to throw more money into the dealerships.... They are usually to turn a profit

Yeah, we just discussed all of this.... we also put forward that idea that if anyone loses a car with a custom plate, they should get their 500 credits back.... We also agreed that players must get a fair chance to fight their case and not just have their items stripped from them and assumed guilty....

Hello All, I would like to raise an issue I have seen unfolding for a while.... For some reason, people are selling MAXED OUT cars for less than stock price which is most definitely going to kill this economy... They don't seem to understand that messing with the value of the $ in game can really kill the economy.... I have taken a small road trip to high end and have some screenshots that I would like to share.... MAXED OUT T20 currently sitting here at 40,000 UNDER STOCK PRICE Another MAXED OUT T20 currently sitting here at 70,000 UNDER STOCK PRICE **NOTE, I've seen one of these sell for 450,000** 190,000 UNDER STOCK MAXED OUT Nero up here for 1,000 UNDER STOCK **I'm sure it will keep going down, just wait and see** MAXED OUT Bullet selling for 45,000 UNDER STOCK MAXED OUT FMJ sitting here at 5,000 UNDER STOCK **I'm sure it will keep going down, just wait and see** **NOTE: I've seen one of these sell for 400,000** 125,000 UNDER STOCK ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ These are examples of people who are literally killing the economy to try and make back some quick money, I would not be surprised if they all keep dropping in price... I think we need to implement something that stops this from happening... or at least spread the word on how to actually sell a car.... For Anyone who's car I have a screenshot of or anyone planning to sell their 'MAXED OUT' cars... sit down and listen to how to do it properly.... I will use the T20 in my example..... Stock Price is $640,000 (Auto Repairs | Auto Services) If you car is 'MAXED OUT' and you need to flip it quick.... Follow this formula.... Stock Price + Turbo Price = Quick Sell Price T20 Quick Sell Example: $640,000 + $35,000 = $675,000 (Credit to @KatieCat9 for the formula )

A more realistic recommended specification would be: 3.6Ghz CPU | GTX 970+ | 16 GB 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM

you have to enable cruise mode to fix it set your cruise to around 300 (/cruise 300) and you will be able to drive I have the same issue with my Karin Futo

FOR WHEN I'M FEELING FRISKY ;)

Go to the barber shop for hairstyles...

Probably true! ahahhaha

Hello All, My Name is King Zaki and this the story of how I become a REFORMED roleplayer on the server... Before we begin, if you would like to get any refreshments or use the toilet please do it now so you don't miss anything good! Have you got your snacks? Good! Let's begin! Chapter: 1 - The Beginning My Story starts back in the middle of May 2017, when a few of my NATO friends (Joe Savage & Mason Savage) from Arma 3 started to play on the server and I joined them... This was my birth into The Savages. My Original character was called 'Zaki Savage' and I freely admit I was a rulebreaker. Though it was never intentional. I just never took time to read the rules, It takes me longer than usual to read and write so I just used my previous roleplay knowledge and began to play. I quickly racked up admin punishment, and before long I was given my first ban.... and the bans just kept rolling in! Total Weeks Banned: 3 Weeks Chapter: 2 - The Controller Incident For those of you that already know about 'The Controller Incident' this is my side of the event... So, I had my original alternate character called 'Derrick Rose' who was a reporter at Weazel News and I was damn good at it. I hated having to tab in to the game and move my character due to the AFK script while I am writing an article... I was advised by a higher up at Weazel News that I could use a controller while I am writing my articles so that I don't get distracted (I have ADHD) so I did. How The Picture surfaced... At the time of this happening, I was in The Savage discord talking to some friends in the voice channel... We somehow got to the topic of the AFK timer and I explained what I was doing so i didn't have to tab in every 10 mins, he asked to see a picture and I sent it to him via the discord... The picture and caption were taking out of context by an admin in the discord and I was punished for it... I was given a 21 day ban... Total Weeks Banned: 6 Weeks Chapter: 3 - The Fresh Start After I was given this 21 day ban, I decided I wanted a fresh start without any negative or biased opinions against me because due to my previous action a lot of people hated me, rightfully so. I bought myself a new copy of GTA, I made myself a new Social Club account and a new set of character in game... This was the birth of 'Alex McRee'. One thing that a huge amount of people don't know is that I was actually ban evading for the 21 days...and I got away with it! How I got caught.... After around 23 days, I made my forth character called 'Thomas Luciano' and during a gang meeting we started to shoot eachother and Joey/Glubu who was a medic at the time came to revived us, long story short Joey somehow found out about me ban evading and he told Osvaldon about it. I spoke to Joey after he told Osvaldon and he said it's Osvaldon's decision on whether or not I get permanently banned for my actions of ban evading... an hour or so pasted by and I was ready to look for a new game to play.... I get a message from Joey..... Chapter: 4 - REFORMED After speaking to Joey for another hour or so, talking about my future on the server, I decided that I needed to personally thank Osvaldon as I knew he was 100% in the right to permanent ban me there and then but he gave me a second chance and I was not about to go and waste that opportunity I was given. So I sent Osvaldon a message on discord.... Now that i knew I was not going to be getting banned, I wanted to make sure I never get into trouble again. Luckily, at the same time i met someone that wanted the same thing for me... someone that was willing to help me not get into trouble again, someone that cared about me... As previously mention, I do have trouble reading and writing but this special someone sat down with me on discord and read me all 8 pages of the rules just before i went to sleep... This special someone keeps me on the straight and narrow everyday i'm on the server to make sure I don't get banned again.... Chapter: 5 - The End It's now been a couple of months and I'm still going strong with no reports against me, I'm having a lot of fun on the server and I'm enjoying this new level of roleplay I have experienced... I would like to become staff one day and give back to the community...although this is highly unlikely due to my history unfortunately.... Special thanks to my special someone.... @KatieCat9

Picture: Rundown gas station inside Bayview Auto Center I think it would be a great idea to add 2-4 gas pumps inside Bayview, now that all the explosive barrels and burned out cars have been removed from the lot it opens up a great opportunity for useful expansions. Adding gas pumps will allow easier access to fuel for players on the server, also it would help draw more players towards Bayview which could then translate into more business for the company. More Business = More Roleplay

+1 Paying the fine should be a choice, otherwise you will never get fines that are expired which cops can arrest you for... Makes the game more fun for a criminal when the cops pull you over and call you out for it and it gives you a reason to evade without just running for no reason when they pull you over.... That's bad roleplay!
