  1. Script opportunities are limited for ALL crims. If you are saying you think that there should be a feathery bed for new crim faction to sleep on I disagree with that.
  2. This is honestly appalling. As far as I know no actual reasons have been given for the cap. I have been playing for about 2 years now and have played as a criminal for 80-85% of my time here and as a LSPD member for the other 10% and a mechanic for 5%. The rules have never been something that was felt fair to us as crims as where it seems to cater to other factions. For about the past year now I have to rethink my decisions 5 times before I even make them due to the fact that the rules seem to be getting tighter and tighter with a lack of definition. It honestly feels like they are trying to push existing criminals off the server which confuses me. We have worked countless ours building our factions and for it all to slowly dwindle away due to OOC restrictions just seems horrific. It feels like whenever we ask for more things to do we get the answer "Make your own RP" when most factions don't have too. It doesn't make much sense that the RP we partake in is being taken away and nothing is being given to supplement that.
  3. +1 The import situation has been rough for quite some time and only gets worse with the new additions to official. It is actually disgusting having to 15 people hound me to order 30 micro rounds when I offer to order.
  4. Good fight boys I enjoyed the RP
  5. It fixes Sync issues, thats why it is commonly used. Regardless of rolling or not people are going to be different on your screen than yours until they fix the sync.
  6. Huge +1 Our HQ can be extremely laggy and i believe this would definitely help solve the problem. Most vehicles parked are parking in an NCZ anyway where no RP is done regarding them excluding the few officers that check for parking pay. This implementation would force people to actually pay for parking instead of just leaving their vehicles at an NCZ over night and praying it doesn't get impounded.
  7. You think typing 2 extra letters takes way longer than typing 1? It seems like a matter of 1 or 2 seconds maximum.

    The Body Timers

    +1 OOC pickups are horrendous now. It can influence situations heavily especially when dealing with rule-breakers talking on the radio or calling police.
  9. This is how poker is played? Why should it be changed. Highest kicker wins if I'm not mistaken. Its like saying that we both have a pair of sevens and i have an 7/Ace in my hand and you have 7/K and we should split it?
  10. If you had ever owned a business this topic wouldn't be here. People put EXTREME amounts of effort and time into obtaining this business's. When they are inactive for an extended period of time they are auctioned off and it should stay that way.
  11. High end cars will ALWAYS be faster and have better handling/acceleration than normal cars. There is a reason they cost so much and they are so rare. 90% of the supers under-preform and are out preformed my a lot of the new cars and some of the old ones. the 811 and the comet are rarity's that people have to pay extreme prices for. Not everything should be balanced and fair. Both sides have advantages and disadvantages.
  12. Dm 2 is a perma ban which is extremely low and easy to achieve. There is no amount of time that allows a punishment wipe either, You are suggesting that someone who got DM 1 a year ago should have all of his assets wiped because he miss-judged a situation a year later. There is too much time people put into this game and work in order to obtain these assets to have someone that made a few simple mistakes to have it all ripped away. I promise you if anyone who has any amount of assets such as a business or supercar and their assets were wiped due to DM 2 or a Disrupting server operations ban that they would quit. I know people with an absurd amount of assets and I also know how long they have been playing and understand the work they've put in. Assets are always wiped if it is found out they are obtained through RWT or cheating which is more than acceptable. Mistakes should not lead to legitimately obtained assets being taken away. Huge -1
  13. -1 Like Polar said, Your character never dies unless you choose to CK which isn't an option anymore. Someone essentially finds you and brings you to MD when you get injured.

    Los Zetas

    Liam Gunarr: A New Chapter My brother would always tell me about the city and the trouble he got into, he talked about his other “family” often and that always interested me. We talked on a weekly basis for the most part until he went dark one day… nothing, not a text, a call, or a voicemail. I knew what had happened, no one needed to tell me. He mailed me a key to his house a few months prior so if anything ever happened to him I’d have access to it. I chose to venture down to Los Santos about two months later to find him. The first place I went to was his house, which was surprisingly large. I stuck my key into the door and had an unsettling feeling in my stomach. I opened the door and I found the TV on and discovered a stockpile of guns after a little digging. I thought I'd stick around the city for a little while and see if Sven popped up. I figured my best chance of finding him would be to join the Police Department. On my way to my first interview, I was chased by four men in a windsor, one having an Ak-47. The taxi driver drove me straight to DCC and gave me up. They kept calling me Sven for some reason and they didn’t believe me when I told them that I was his brother. I narrowly escaped after stealing their car and driving to the Police Department to do my interview. I was accepted into the Police Academy and underwent an intense training program over the course of a few months. These courses included callouts, arrest procedures, target practice and much more. Only after I finished the training program was I promoted to PO1 where I could obtain my shotgun licensing. My methods while serving as on officer were mildly unethical, which I got into trouble for on multiple occasions. I opened my locker one day where there was a notice that I was “Dishonorably Discharged”. I glanced around me for a moment before taking a kevlar vest and putting my hoodie over it in order to hide it. I walked out of the Police Department with a grin on my face. I met Jay Gamble, Thraxamillian Reeves, and Jon Purmineli which were all prominent people in Sven’s life during my time in PD. He spoke highly of them in the past, so I introduced myself to them and they treated my like family. I finally understood what my brother meant when he would talk about his “family”. After I was let go from the Police Department, I knew exactly where I was heading: the same path my brother went down. I started frequently hanging out with Jay and others in his organization known as the “Los Zetas”. I felt a sense of belonging and felt like I was a part of the family. I quickly put the money that I earned from PD to work and invested into weapons, which is where I made my fortune. I invested in legal avenues as well as illegal. Jon Purmineli took me under his wing in the gun business and fronted me large amounts of firearms to sell for him as well as helping me purchase my first gun store. I never found me and my brother to be alike, but at the end of the day we were the same person. Some say Sven is dead and some say he took a one way ticket to who knows where. I’d like to think it’s the latter, but I know in my heart that he’s buried in that desert somewhere… All I have left to remember him by are a pair of elf shoes, a few carbines, and an LMG. Now I stand here and look over the city as he once did, I see everything he used to talk about and why he lived the life he did. Now I live a life much like his, hiding from the law like he used too, constantly looking over my shoulder, and instilling fear in others.
  15. The timer is by no means a bad idea and should maybe last around 1-3 hours, and I couldn't agree more with you when it comes to NCZ's and how they are used. You also have to understand that if it is profitable and there is value in having an alliance between two large factions theirs no reason that there shouldn't be one. There is a value in PD working with SD is there not? Criminal RP is already extremely bottle-necked and definitely needs changes but i believe that these changes would only make it more stale. Forcing wars to have an end date doesn't make sense because gang rivalries don't end until one group is gone or if something is negotiated. If a war is declared on a faction and they simply don't want to fight it they could just be inactive for the duration of the war then pop back up like nothing ever happened. Criminal RP has been a dirty portion of RP for a long time, and what i mean by that is its a blood sport. Only the finest criminals make it through and thrive and thats how it should be, I feel that majority of the changes spoken about in this thread only add crutches and push it away from being a competitive area of RP.
  16. I think its insane your trying to talk about what needs to be changed in criminal RP when you aren't a criminal. It is much more beneficial for us to be allied rather than to be at war, it is not our fault that other gangs cant hold it together long enough to get to where we are.
  17. Our refund requests were valid by rules previous rule-book. It doesn't make sense that you will perma ban someone for not paying one of these loans back and refuse to issue a refund. It is scamming and this seems to be odd that if someone breaks this rule the staff team refuses to repay it. If someone were to DM me and i had 3 aks on me you would refund me due to rule-break. When someone scams you it should be no different.
  18. I play on your Eclipse RP server and i wanted to ask you a few questions about an idea me and a couple people have had. ive been playing for about 3 months and I've been imprisoned multiple times without my rights being read and with police using excessive force . im aware that the Admins act as lawyers but they just aren't around a ton when it comes to that they have other obligations such as answering reports. I was wondering what you thought about starting a law firm for a faction people would have to go through training just like the PD but would practice law It would be a player run faction just like PD or MD i think it would increase the criminal and PDs experience as well as push PD to do their job better. of course i would be willing to help with anything regarding the creation of the faction and would like to run if possible if not that wouldn't surprise me i would appreciate if you took the time to read this but if not i understand that you are probably busy and would would greatly appreciate if you could get back to me. Have a good day.
  19. Hello sir i appealed a ban earlier and said you were going to reduce my ban to 24 hrs. When i look at the status it still says 72 is there something i have to do on my end to make the appeal go through.
