well tbh this is an RP server, people should make half an attempt to drive responsibly and actually make an attempt at a real sorta approach rather then a GTA online style of play.
Maybe if our cruise control worked properly. You are looking at this from a vet perspective, not a new player perspective.

I like this idea, I at one point made a suggestion on a point system.
Good behaviour (normal day to day life) accumulates points +1 every 10mins or something
Ticket = -5 points
Misdemeanor = - 20 points
Felony = -50 points.Each type of job would require a certain amount of points to be eligible.... kinda like a criminal record check
Each new player would start with a point balance of 0 if they got a ticket they would lose 5 points, and can go negative.
Jobs
Courier 0+
Farmer 0+
Bus 25+
Trucker 40+
and even player run factions could use this system also if they choose.
If someone employed in one of the above jobs drops below the minimum points then they would be terminated from employment and would have to reapply (rejoin) once they meet the requirement.
Example:
I am employed as a trucker with (43points) making my deliveries, (or driving home from work) I speed through a speed camera and get a speeding ticket.... well I just lost 5 points and once I complete my deliveries should I not be above 40 points by the time I return the truck my position would be terminated.
I am employed as a farmer, and I rob the farmer beside me and the cops catch me, well that's robbery - 20points, I lose 20points, that puts me below the minimum points requirement and paul wont hire me anymore.But.
I am a trucker with a perfect driving record and don't do anything wrong, and have been well behaved for a long time. I get a speeding ticket, well I lost 5 points but im at + 65 so now im at 60 points... so I don't lose my job just need to be careful.
I think the downside to this is new players get hammered over and over again with speeding tickets. New players will be in the negative on points due to not knowing where speed cameras are and will never be able to get a job, and many of these jobs are specifically designed for new players.
I would be okay with the crime points, but I'm reluctant to take away jobs from new players over speeding tickets. That seems counter productive to me. -

We do not need even more ways to pray on the dying civilian population right now.
Until prison sentences are increased to match the rewards of stealing a 50k shipment, and better RP standard rules are set in place for middle of the day robberies, this is a big no.
We don't want this to turn into hunting truckers, we already have enough people robbing civs buying clothes.
I'm a criminal, and I'd have to agree with this. I don't want to see truckers get robbed at gunpoint for their cargo.
However, even with the system as it is now, you could technically cut off the stores supply chain by stopping trucks from dropping there, and charge the store owner money to fix the supply chain. This would actually require some RP beyond "Hands up", as well as some time and persistence.

Did a 1k job, I also did not notice any payment. I immediately stopped after that.

This happens for me as well. I fix it the same way as Cutesander. But it's definitely annoying to do that every time you connect to the server.

If we're talking about making an allowance for roleplay's sake, such as for passive roleplay and/or character development by stunting around parks and stuff, sure, I could see that.
However if you want a carte blanche exception from the rules, where we will have Sanchez's stunt jumping away from cops or people chasing them with faster bikes, I'd rather not, as that will get very GTA Online, very quickly.
Here's an example. From Braddock's to Chiliad there is a route through (on top) the mountains. This route involves a series of cliff jumps to get from point A to point B due to a series of 10 foot ledge drop offs. It's how the trail is built. It seems to be, this should be an acceptable use for dirt bikes. It's great fun to go up there and just screw around in your free time.
I'm not talking launching off mountains to get away from cops. To be fair, I can see how not having a black or white rule on this specific vehicle could be problematic. Maybe only allow it during solo RP and/or RP where that is your sole intention, and keep the rules the same when chases are involved.
I'm open to suggestions. -

There's more cars parked stupidly at bank now than when I posted this, and there aren't server issues. Well bikes and motorbikes actually.
There's definitely a lot of bicycles and motorcycles. I belive (don't quote me) the next server update is adding flatbed trucks which will resolve that issue.
I was just pointing out why the cars were so bad in that pic. The Orange comet is owned by a buddy of mine "Clutch". I tried to move it for him when it got stuck there, but it was locked so I left it.
The time right before that was one of those server kicks every 10 minute days. -
I'd really like to see the ability for the Sanchez (or other specific dirt bikes) to stunt jump. It's a dirt bike, and should be able to successfully make reasonable jumps. The bike is intended to be used for this purpose, but can't be RP'd for its intended use.
I think taking that away from this vehicle removes any value the vehicle has since sports bikes and cars can now climb mountains.

I can tell you, I know who's cars some of those are. This was the aftermath after a server instability issue. These people kept getting DC'd and rolled back which caused them to stop trying to log in. Hence why those cars were parked in the middle of the road for hours.
Those cars weren't parked there just to park there.

Currently looking for a bigger place. I have an apartment just north of Los Santos Customs. I'm looking to trade that and 100-200k for a bigger/nicer place. The apartment I have now is walking distance to the bank, LSC, and gambling as well as right in the center of the city.

I don't care about location, I don't care if it's a dump, and I don't care if I have a hard time sleeping due to constant gun shots in the distance. I just need a house. I can't fit anything in my car, and it's too cramped.

Wait, these prices are per minute or meter? Also, are we being charged for the distance from body to car? Asking for a friend...

You absolutely have to rely on cruise control, this isn't a pedal. Our cars don't function like IRL vehicles. There is no partial gas, you're either to the floor, or giving your car no gas. My car gets up to 70 kph in a split second. Even today, I get tickets I don't even mean to get in the blink of an eye. IRL cruise control allows you to not have to have your foot on the gas, which definitely does stop you from going over the speed limit. I'm not sure what kind of vehicle you drive, but my car both speeds up and slows down based on my cruise control setting.
Secondly, if you want to talk about "realism", camera tickets don't count against your driving record in most locations that I am familiar with. Only tickets from actual traffic stops. Beyond that, if we want to talk realism, we are getting traffic tickets wearing masks in stolen cars. Why is that? Because the primary purpose of tickets are to keep people from speeding in NCZs, and keep innocents safe. Let's not confuse those OOCly as an intended functions of "the law". Speeding tickets are not for law enforcement, they are for public safety in areas where large amounts of people congregate.
Lastly, guess how many times an officer has tried to pull me over for speeding in Los Santos in the past 400 hours? Zero...If you want to stop people from speeding, start pulling them over.
