    If two people have the exact same cards, the one with the highest kicker wins. That means if you both have the same straight, the person that has the higher kicker (the 6th card) will win. That is a rule I have first seen on Eclipse.
    Hands have 10 ranks in poker, going from 10 being high card to 1 being royal flush. All hands go from a single card (high card) to a maximum of 5 cards. In Eclipse a winning hand can have 6 cards with the 6th being the kicker.

    If the 6 cards also result in a draw, it will count the 7th as well.

    I think the automatic alarms are not an issue personally. The automatic alarm doesn't even go off until after the robbery is finished and any decent crim that knows what they are doing will already be long gone by the time cops arrive. I don't personally think the alarm is the reason stores aren't being done. Likely more tied to the payout amount and the marked money. 

    It is absolutely tied in with the alarm but it is not because you will be caught at that store, it is because you will be caught at the next one. 

    Prior to the automatic alarm, you could rob 4-5 stores before the cops were onto you and you had to stop; right now after robbing a single store, cops will be aware of your activity and you will need to stop.

  3. All reports are handled on a case by case basis; while previous rulings can be used as a loose reference, they are not to be taken as "precedent"; roleplay scenarios are too dynamic for that.

    Instead, you should immerse yourself into your character and it's surroundings, and try to act in a way that makes sense for an average person to act. (i.e. average Joe not hardened navy seal).

    You missed the point where I just said remove the labs. Then why do these changes need to stay if they're removed? They don't. They don't make rp sense. But again, that was not the point of my post...

    They did not miss the point. The changes are there because it's a video game; they are there for balance/economy reasons. If they do not make sense RPly, you will just need to suspend your disbelief.

  5. From mechanics to gang members, a lot of organized groups on the server have at one point used a speaker to play some music during down-time, and most of them have likely had it stolen with little to no roleplay because of it's relatively high value and extreme ease of picking up.

    I think we can all agree it would be way harder to steal a speaker from a group of people realistically, but besides the realism, this change is proposed in the spirit of making the game more fun, and increase social RP.

    I propose that in order to pick up a speaker put down by someone else, you will need to have a crowbar in your hands, and you will need to wait 15 to 30s in an animation (can be the same animation as ATM robbery).

  6. I like the idea but I believe it could be abused as in people just go around and break into cars for the weapons with no intention to chop them.

    I feel it would be better if the NPC had the chance to gift you a weapon when you sell the weapon parts, that way you are rewarded for doing the full activity instead of cheesing it.

    First of all, public drug labs are not profitable ENOUGH.

    The fact that they're being used almost non-stop seems to be evidence to the contrary. If public labs were not profitable enough, no one would use them.

    They might not be as good as private labs, but nothing will ever be as good as printing money with zero risk in a private interior.

    Literally every way of making money criminally has been buffed substantially; even doing ATMs is worth it, maybe not for someone with millions from cooking, but for a new player? definitively.

    I do think that sometimes new players will run into heavy opposition at labs, and that is fairly good, but there's also times when I've seen newer players cook solo at Chilli and no one shows up for hours, and even then, they can drive off on a BF400 which is a cheap bike.

    I don't think it's as bleak as you paint it, on the contrary, there's so much money on the map, it's hard to stop people from making it.
