I think we're all for semi-automated, cops and crims alike. Shouldn't be punishing players OOC because we dont have enough units on duty for you to get your car out. That being said, full automation would be bad because it's an positive interaction with someone.

-1. I don't want to see things become even more convoluted, there's already a bunch of reasons to argue in /b, we don't need anymore. Not worth the hassle.

If you want easy and safe, do a legal job. You're operating outside the law, probably as a solo or a small group. What are you expecting exactly? People to not engage you because they rules say they can't, while you print money in your bubble? I have played solo at these labs before, been robbed but i've also dipped at the first sign of trouble, hid my stuff in bushes etc.. There isn't supposed to be such little sights active, wasn't want i wanted it to be so maybe a few more could be made available.

I don't even know how we're getting the two mixed up in the same post, roleplaying things like sexual assault or even making threats of rape have absolutely no business being on the server. It doesn't matter what year we are in, it doesn't matter if it actually happens and its beyond a threat or if the other person even consents to the RP. No one, male or female, should feel forced or coerced into that kind of roleplay, ever on this server. I am reiterating that because I don't want your mumbling to paint a false narrative that I'm someone that either approves of or would look the other way on that kind of roleplay. I would not and I would not associate myself with someone that did. There is a massive distinction between that kind of role-play and the instances what the original poster mentioned, which I don't want to get lost. If you find yourself in the kind of situations where you are being forced to chop a car at gun point for someone and THAT is the sort of roleplay that is making you uncomfortable, then honestly, I don't know what to tell you or at the very least, try one of those content servers on Twitch where you need to file an application before doing something against another player. You are playing a game that is Rated M for Mature, PEGI 18 / ESRB. Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Mature Humor, Nudity, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content, Use of Drugs and Alcohol. In this open-world action game, players assume the role of three criminals whose storylines intersect within the fictional city of Los Santos. Players can switch between each character to follow his storyline, completing missions which often include criminal activities (e.g., stealing cars, executing heists, assassinating targets). Players use pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, and explosives to kill various enemies (e.g., rival gang members); players also have the ability to shoot non-adversary civilians, though this may negatively affect players' progress as a penalty system triggers a broad police search. Blood-splatter effects occur frequently, and the game contains rare depictions of dismemberment. In one sequence, players are directed to use various instruments and means (e.g., pipe wrench, tooth removal, electrocution) to extract information from a character; the sequence is intense and prolonged, and it involves some player interaction (i.e., responding to on-screen prompts). The game includes depictions of sexual material/activity: implied fellatio and masturbation; various sex acts that the player's character procures from a prostitute—while no nudity is depicted in these sequences, various sexual moaning sounds can be heard. Nudity is present, however, primarily in two settings: a topless lap dance in a strip club and a location that includes male cult members with exposed genitalia in a non-sexual context. Within the game, TV programs and radio ads contain instances of mature humor: myriad sex jokes; depictions of raw sewage and feces on a worker's body; a brief instance of necrophilia (no nudity is depicted). Some sequences within the larger game allow players to use narcotics (e.g., smoking from a bong, lighting a marijuana joint); cocaine use is also depicted. Players' character can, at various times, consume alcohol and drive while under the influence. The words “f**k,” “c*nt,” and “n**ger” can be heard in the dialogue. THIS is the game that you are role-playing on and while certain, reasonable concessions need to be made to ensure nothing happens that doesn't go too far, the last thing this server needs is to be more conservative than it currently is. Simply put, if there ain't a rule covering it, then toughen up buttercup.

Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story though Jett

Differences, yes. Discrepancies? No. While the above clip is from a movie, it's a movie based on real life events. Some situations require you to risk your life. Law Enforcement or Soldiers don't necessarily abandon their mission because they get fired upon. No character should disregard the possibility of death but it's also what you train for. The militia in that clip are locked in, fighting for their lives. The soldiers in the heli are tasked with performing a rescue. I wouldn't expect anyone in Kutte Throat to be running from the gun fight, crim or cop tbh.

If Osvaldon didn't want crims to do this, he'd release the drug update. Smoke up homies.

Haha, sociopath. Saying we are all here to have fun is an over simplification and false. You're here to, ideally, roleplay realistically a character, within the environment created around you. This environment has an ungodly death rate per day, everyone drives at 200 km/h, you cannot drink the tap water and everyone runs around in masks, some of which pretending they are animals. But getting forced to chop a car, being spat at and called names is where we draw the line? There is roleplay that you don't do on this server. There are slurs that you don't say. There are actions that your character should not perform. All for good reason. This scenario, isn't that. The rules we have now, are perfectly adequate. What the community doesn't need, is for everyone to start feeling they can pick and choose what situations work for them outside of those areas. All that will do is lead to sanitary, woke nonsense, where you can't say or do anything. Some of you wouldn't have survived here in 2019, I swear to god.

I preferred your PD suggestions to this

You're just going to have to learn to love it @Harley Happy Christmas to Eden, and you!

Unless they're in the middle of the road, you can only hit them if you're losing control of your vehicle. Ya'll wanted Christmas for the month, so deal with it lmao, I tried to help.

Jesus Christ. There are certain topics and topic areas of roleplay that have absolutely no place being explored, considered or expanded upon, such as but not limited to, rape / sexual assault, racism, homophobia, transphobia etc. Those things are excluded, in part because they are broad topics which negatively impact some of our community on a daily basis in their personal lives. No black community member needs to come on the server and be called the N word. No gay person needs to come on the server and be called this slur or that slur. Because things being the way things are, they're going to hear that shit offline too. It's not necessary to have it be a part of a person's roleplay and frankly, there are a lack of people that appreciate the nuances of those topics to be able to do that roleplay in a way that isn't just an excuse to spew hate at people indiscriminately. We're already a care bear server because of the amount of protection players have, even people playing as criminals before they can be attacked, robbed, shot. That directly references when you were forced to play mechanic at a chop and didn't like it. Nothing to do with Latvia or modern day slavery, we just got too many people not willing to take a justified L and play the loser in a situation and we don't need more.

I think if you consider the server that you play on and the type of roleplay that you do, asking people to chase their behaviours on the server, as a matter of rules is a big reach. You see your role-play one way and for you, you see the positive impressions of what you're trying to do. But, by going to these locations, you're inserting yourselves into their scenarios and expecting that they'll react to you in a way that you feel is appropriate for what you're trying to do. I'll be honest, in the past when i've been doing cop stuff, if the wrong Bathsheba entered a situation I was in or even some of the elderly roleplayers before your faction were involved, i'd feel somewhat negative towards those individuals because I'd feel they were ruining my RP by being something completely out of left field. I wouldn't want to start shooting people, but instead I'd want to leave because I couldn't be doing with it OOC, it took me right out of what i was trying to do. I'd suspect to an extent, some of this is that. Character roleplay isn't the best here, if we're honest. It's not a 'content' server where every interaction is going to be, or should be something positive for everyone. So, I can sort of understand people that are cooking drugs, looking at a bunch of old people rocking up and wondering if they are hallucinating. If they were coming to where you hang in game and fucking with you for no reason, different story. But you're going to areas of the server that are in essence, for a specific thing. I'm all for you what you guys are trying to do but there is most definitely a time and in this case, a place for it. A drug lab? Not if you don't want to be carrying it like everyone else that goes to a lab does.

I am disregarding his experience, bro had to chop a few vehicles for someone for an hour while he was called some names and then wrote a thesis on it. I don't feel indifferent to it, it was a longer winded and polite way of telling the guy he was being soft. We're enough of a carebear server already.

There was nothing gross about what happened to you and putting things like this on the naughty list would only serve to further sanitize the role-play experience, to a degree where it starts to become debatable whether anything negative can happen to you or not. End of the day, sometimes you are the one doing the punking and sometimes you're the punk. Something like sexual assault (which has no place, either in the action or the threat, on this server) doesn't belong even in the same topic as whatever this was and if you being made to chop a vehicle by someone at gun point is hard for you, I dunno what to tell you. I disagree with the guy above and what he said about the RP should be enjoyable, because i think people take that to mean they should get a positive out of it too. What the RP should actually be, is engaging and emotive. Fear and shame are emotions. You decided to make the decision to live outside the confines of the law and you paid for it. You should feel good, you did something to help someone else!

Bruh.. why would you

Logout button in the U Menu. *ducks*

I'm down with semi-automated when we don't have enough people to staff it, players shouldn't pay the price for a lack of availability. That being said, in the case that we do have enough people, it should be us that releases the vehicles. After all, it's not singleplayer.

+1 for this and +1 for @Larbear shortening his signature

I don't see any downside to this, at all. Helps the person(s) injured and the person helping them.

This is a really old suggestion but honestly if it’s not the case now, it should be. makes perfect sense. @Timmaayy @Chrisy

I don't necessarily see any flaws in what you posted, if it's supporting SD or Bayview for example who are going to be up there regardless then I'm all for it. The banks should be scripted, there's like three extra ones now to be robbed. I don't think pulling more people out of the city, when the majority of the server's anchor points are there is necessarily good, especially without a population increase though. I get you want more people up North but the balance is already off and the server would benefit from some consolidation but that won't happen at this point.

An phone app with a skull on it

The credit conspiracy theory is wild. I personally thought the public labs were the better choice and still do. It's a multiplayer server, not story mode right, so there should be that element of danger. Not just being able to run through printing money. Am I content with the implementation of the public labs? Ehhh, they could be better but overall they fit what Eclipse is better than private labs do.

Plus, if you did this Osvaldon and NBDY would probably have to use real money to pay me for my modding efforts. If more and more people have super cars, they lose their value which isn't in the performance but in the look of the vehicle and the novelty of owning one or three.
