+1 absolutely needs to happen

+1 to both
The bigger picture is that Crim really needs an update but in the meantime these are NEEDED updates. Crim RP is becoming stale because it's a repeat cycle of what we know we can do without going to jail for ridiculous times. I know it's supposed to be realistic punishments and consequences to do but I'm sorry no matter how you look at it 5+ hours if prison is just ridiculous. Especially cause there is NOTHING to do in prison yet we punish for being afk where there is nothing.

+1 I like this idea a lot.

LSPD/LSSD should also consider doing more when receiving a call about a drug lab. How does the caller know that it is a drug lab? Were they inside? Did they cook? Were people seen cooking? These are all questions that can be asked prior to rolling up on a lab and also provide potential consequences on the person who made the call.
^^^ (I can't quote on my phone BUT @Aldarine is on the money here)
i have personally had someone call on a lab and had PD come to the lab and arrest me. Meanwhile the guy who called is down there picking plants and cooking and when I tell the cop "yo what is that dude doing?" They are dumbfounded and then are like "we can't confirm he's cooking" like WHAT? You rolled up and are arresting me for the same thing so ???.
I am all for more rp in this way being a thing. It also adds more RP for PD and IB rather than take opportunity away.

Name: Chi ‘Charlie’ Lau → Formerly Charlotte Hill
Date of Birth: 19/JAN/1994
Gender: Female
Hair Color: Red
Eye Color: Green
Language(s): English, French, Mandarin
Affiliation: Member of the Triads
hi Fang (nee Charlotte Hill) was born in Lee's Summit, MO. She was born to an affluent deeply religious family. Her whole life she felt stifled, trapped, not able to express who she was as a person. Despite that she didn’t have a horrid childhood - other than the fact that she was expected to follow in the footsteps of her older sister. Those footsteps being nothing other than getting married, keeping a clean house, and producing lots of children. She always longed for more and dreaded every passing day as she got older that she was nearing such a dreadful fate. Her chance for escape came with a handsome boy, Anthony. They quickly fell in love during her senior year of high school and following graduation they moved away - to Branson, MO. Life wasn’t perfect but at least she was able to be herself. For three years she was there working hard to support her life. During that time she fell out of love with Anthony - much to his heartbreak but the truth of the matter was that he had plainly been her escape and not much else. They ended things amicably and continued to live together in their spacious apartment. For the first time in her life Charlotte felt in control of her own life - what would she do with it?
Then there was the visitor. Her brother - the only family member she liked - showed up on her front door with news. What news? Mother dearest was deathly ill. Although she was conflicted Charlotte decided it was the right decision to go see her mother before she passed away. The drive back to her hometown was the longest drive of her life but they finally made it back to the farmhouse that housed her family. She walked through the front door and the first thing she felt.. was confusion. Her mother was in perfect health… nothing wrong with her at all. She found herself locked away into her room where she was informed that she had brought back home safely where she would remain until she was thinking more clearly about the priorities in life.
Charlotte was trapped for two more years in that house - everyday dying a little on the inside. She worked a plan however -being compliant, pretending to agree with her family, yes this, yes that, every moment acting the part that her family had written for her. Over those two years she earned their trust. The idiots. She announced to them the great news - she had been accepted to an extremely conservative religious institution in Alabama for college. They were overjoyed - and didn’t suspect a thing. Why should they? The plans were made and before Charlotte knew it she was climbing into a car for the drive to Alabama (or at least that’s what her parents thought) She drove her car over one state and parked the car in the middle of a national park before calling a taxi to the nearest airport. She was careful not to leave any clues as to where she was heading… the last place anyone would suspect. She boarded a plane and flew to her new life. When she landed, she found herself in Los Santos with nothing but the clothes on her back, enough money for some food, but most importantly… her freedom.
Starting out wasn’t easy. She fished most of the time to make enough money to eat and otherwise just focused on getting to know the city and its people. For the first few months she made many friends and had a great group of people to spend time with. A few months into her stay in Los Santos an experience changed her life forever. While relaxing at the bank a person who she had not met before walked up and asked a simple question: ‘are you a snitch?’ well the answer is clearly “no” and she was quickly told to get into the car. They informed her on the way to grab a mask as we were going to hit stores. She had a bit of an internal crisis - this isn’t what she was taught was right. But she was the master of her own fate wasn’t she?? Fuck it. She decided she would join them….. And on the first store…. They quickly got arrested.With one quick decision and on one day Charlotte found herself a felon with multiple charges. As a result of those charges she found herself in prison for the first time.
Prison gave her plenty of time to think about her place in the city and what she wanted to do in the city. She decided then and there that Charlotte would be no more. Charlie was born. Charlie met many people from that point on. A few of them Christopher Durnwell, Hunter Mason, Ben Barnes, and Jace Bianchi brought her around the gang life in Los Santos and she began to see the dark underside of the city. It wasn’t that dark to her. Christopher brought her around an up and coming gang, Legion where she learned about the gang life. A higher up, Jenna Maye taught her how to cook drugs the right way, another member Tyler Hall joined regularly on these cooks. Another gang, the seaweeds, had been giving Charlie trouble robbing her almost daily whenever they saw her around so life wasn’t all shits and giggles.
One day while she was trying to sell some fish she got robbed by two people clad in blue. They told Charlie that if she wanted to truly be safe in the city all she needed to do was go talk to the people in blue at the store behind the bank. This gave Charlie a lot to think about. The next day she met someone outside the store by chance who introduced himself as Hunter Mason. He offered to go fishing with her and she took him up on the offer. They spend the whole night fishing and talking and found in each other kindred spirits. There was something familiar about this person but she couldn’t place it. She shared her goal of purchasing an elegy retro and Hunter said that he would help but that there were much quicker ways to make money than fishing. He drove her around and they chopped cars and did some cooks. She was curious why no one ever messed with them during these trips and he told her about the Zetas, a gang, of which he was a member. He pulled out his mask and that’s when it hit her. This was the same guy that had robbed her a few days prior at the fishing sell point! They shared a good laugh over the whole thing and from that point on they were inseparable. They would spend nights hunting, responding to zeta backup calls, and otherwise setting up cooks. Before she knew it she had earned enough for her new elegy. Legion fell apart at this time and Charlie knew that as much as Hunter and her clicked that Zetas were not the home for her. She never stopped hanging with Hunter but she found herself without a family again.
Charlie wasn’t affiliated with anyone and relied on making connections to not get robbed on a daily basis. She did pretty well for herself in this time making connections. She counted amongst her acquaintances members of all the major gangs. She had talked to two members of Wanted but nothing went all the way through. By chance a group came together of friends who were eager to find safety in numbers but also to make their own mark on the city. This group of friends would do different activities such as cooking, robbing stores, etc in numbers for safety. During this time the biggest opposition came from a gang named The Rooks who would often come and rob us of all our hard work and supplies. It was a hard going but we had each other and worked hard to make it at the end of the day.
After a few months the NAG Family went their separate ways with many of our members leaving the city, others pursuing legal pursuits, and others joining different gangs in the city. It was also around this time that her dear friend, Hunter Mason, left the city for seemingly good. Charlie was left back at square one.
Charlie had heard of the Triads but she had only seen them around the city a few times. Twice she had run into them while checking labs and once they had robbed her while she was at Chili cooking. But other than that she hadn’t heard anything other than what she knew from her friends Jin Kwang and Tyler Hall who had always spoken highly of them. She ran back into an old friend of hers who had a new name, Lucas London. He had recently joined the Triads and had nothing but good things to say. Between Lucas London, Tyler Hall, and Jin Kwang she got a fuller picture of this group and what they were to this city of Los Santos. The more she learned about them the more she wanted to be a part of this family. She worked hard to be around and show off what she had to offer in hopes of being recruited.
Finally one day Jin Kwang invited her to trial for The Triads. She happily took this chance to trial and to show that she had a lot to give and that she would be a great addition to the family. She worked closely with two of the other female members Nova and Niki Zhou, as well as Jason Shen during this time. She passed her trial just as the gang went to war with Vice. Finally Charlie found herself feeling at home. More at home than she had felt her entire life - she had found her family. And now she was going to work hard to prove her place there.
She rose through the ranks from Blue Lantern to Straw Sandal through hard work enjoying every minute of it. She saw many faces come and go - friends she had loved who went on to pursue other things and close friends came into the gang as well. All three who had originally brought her to this family left the gang. But her determination and commitment to the Triads had never wavered once. She was disheartened to see her close friends Tyler Pong, Jin Kwang, and Lucas Kwang all leave the gang but she wished them all well as they went on to different things. On the other side of the spectrum, though she was absolutely delighted when another one of her closest friends, Jace Bianchi joined the gang. Jace and Charlie went far back to when she had first met Hunter in the city. When she came into town and heard the news that he was on trial she was so stoked for she felt he would make a great addition - and he has.
Change is a part of life and with some losses and some great victories Charlie counts herself lucky to be a part of what she considers the best family in the city. In her time with the triads three things have became of utmost importance to her:
-
Supporting her fellow sisters in the Triads. When she first joined it was through the overwhelming kindness and direction of Nova and Niki Zhou that she found her way. She therefore in turn always supports and helps her sisters in anyway.
-
Guiding the new faces in the gang. Charlie always makes herself available to lend a helping hand and to educate those who are new to the gang so that they are set up for success.
-
Being present when needed - No matter if someone ran into a fence or finds themselves surrounded by countless enemies Charlie will always come when needed. She is fully prepared to go down with her family. No one will stand alone. She expects nothing less from any other member of The Triads.
During this time she was adopted into the Fang family. This is how she became known as Chi ‘Charlie’ Fang. She counts this a great honor and always works hard to bring honor to the Fang name. Most recently she found herself promoted to a new rank - Red Pole. She was incredibly humbled to be honored with such a position. Her new goal now to use this position for the best of the gang always and to continue to work hard and be a good example. Time will only tell what is next for Charlie Fang. It's been quite a ride thus far and doesn’t show any signs of slowing anytime soon.

I disagree with being allowed to AFK. I DO however think we stamps should be less useless (cant even play poker if i wanted) and if you die and lost your stamps you are so fucked. I also think there needs to be some updates to how charges are stacked and max prison time. The jail times can get quite ridiculous (anything 6+ makes me want to honestly quit at that point its beyond a punishment) especially since your stamps are useless. Also if there were other things that you could do in the prison to encourage rp.

Based on how unrealistic GTA's shooting injuries is, all injuries would be fatal as it takes dozens of shots to shoot someone down. however I suggest making the decision of deathRP sort of random by the script like 30% chance that you get offered DeathRP upon getting that you would RP dying (without getting OOC permission from anyone) and then /acceptdeath (would only be usable if you got the 30% chance, you can avoid using it if you don't wanna RP your death)
I actually really like that. Its fair and unbiased and takes the decision out of all parties involved I like that. Perhaps have the chances be slightly more dependant on the amount of injuries on your person? ex: if /analysewounds showed 1 GSW you would have far less a chance than someone with 10+ GSWs? Also there have been situations where I have chosen to take my sentence rather than die cause it made more rp sense I like that you can avoid using it.

How so? I'll use last night as example: if you are felony evading with multiple other charges that have been stacked leading to a long sentence became aware that we could not shake the cops likely leading to your arrest but that you have backup. Why does it not make sense to attempt to engage in a firefight as we have more numbers and a fair chance of escaping a hefty jail sentence? I would think IRL a gang with the organization to do so would behave the same way but perhaps I am mistaken.

+1 ordering ammo is one on the primary issues for criminals factions currently, whether other may see it as minor, it's a critical issue. It essentially removes any form of cash flow that once came from that system, leaving yet another gap in criminal rp.
It would make rp sense that each "official faction" has their own supply line as each of them comes from different back stories and locations e.g. Zetas importing from Mexico, Triads importing from China and so on.
Overall with the moving ammo to private supplies I personally believe that aspects of the old import system should be brought back. The big red containers would vastly improve ammo delivery rp and changes it from 1 person required to get a drop to a whole gang potentially as there are multiple crated to unload.
If the old system was to be implemented, it would be highly beneficial that the order could pick their location dynamically literally anywhere that correlates to their import method, e.g. If you use boat import to a dock, or a plane to an airstrip.
Following with this PD could get a similar system where instead of the exact location of the drop being given, they'd receive a radius circle of where the drop may be in (like phone tracing) , bringing some actual detective rp when it comes to locating the drop.

You say death rp is rewarded for good rp, even when doing good rp all it takes is one person's ooc mood to deny it for simple reasons such as "he belongs to X gang"
Yes in my previous statement I did say it was a reward for goodrp which it is but I also will confirm this statement as well. I've personally been in the middle of what I thought was goodrp only to have someone run up and go straight to /b to say 'don't even try it' based solely off the gang I am in.
Since it is a reward it should be given unbiasedly to those displaying good rp and based off the wounds they have received. Not the officers mood or opinion towards a gang.

I would think, that this happens, because Criminals dont have their place. They havent got any updates in ages and now, when drug running is boring and AFk money grinding, store robbing is too easy and also boring, they just dont have any other ideas how to express themselves as criminals, just robbing other poeple. I would highly suggest adding more things to do as criminal.
What do you suggest they add? If you had to give your best suggestion as to things to add to make crim rp more engaging what would you request be added? I am actually curious - Because I agree - there should be more both for criminals and civilians to engage in rp - but what? I would love to see a discussion with actual suggestions. I have seen some good ideas recently (money counterfeiting, turfs, etc) let's keep these ideas coming.
QuotePersonally, I think the biggest contribution to this is the police. For what ever reason, and don't tell me this isn't true, because I see it every single day, the established gangs are not much concern for the police.
I don't agree to this statement as both a gang member who has to deal with police and sheriffs on a daily basis AND as a cadet who is now learning all about that side of rp as well.

Thank you to the OP for attempting to highlight what you see as a big problem. I want to ask tho - what suggestions do you suggest that you feel would improve the server? I think it is reasonable to ask for clearer rules on nrp and robbing. What else?
Instead of 'all gang members are lazy and bad' how would you like them to improve? Asking them not to rob is not a valid suggestion as that is a completely realistic thing for gang members to do. As stated before someone has to be the victim. It sucks - but we all have to take our turn. I am in a large gang and I have still been robbed plenty of times. Sometimes you just have to take the L.
As a part of a large gang I disagree with the notion that all we do is rob and hit labs. There is a multitude and depth of RP situations we explore. However that being said I am always open to hearing suggestions from others how they think I (as a rper) and us (as a faction) can improve.
I also disagree with the notion that PD do not confront or make our lives harder. They certainly do - as do other gangs. I think one of the things that was mentioned about how there are 60 gang members To 10+ cops is a valid point though. Unfortunately that is realistic though if you look at statistics of large populated cities.
Anyways thanks for your thoughts. I don't think we need to start calling people out on their specific rp quality just because they are in an official gang. That's just immature frankly. If you want us to improve state your suggestions so we can all ponder them - no need to be petty oocly about it. If you have a specific complaint with a specific person bring it up with them privately or through the report system if you feel someone has behaved in a NRP way.

Yes I can replicate this every day and every time i perform that action as a passenger in the car. Would you like more footage or anything from me?
-
Date and time (provide timezone): This occurs regardless of time but the time I captured on video was 12/18/19 around 10pm PST
Character name: Chi Fang
Issue/bug you are reporting: Whenever a character is a passenger in a car and pulls open their phone and then puts it away it causes the car to lurch off the ground as if it has hit something. This also happens on occassion when a passenger removes their mask. How far the car jumps is dependant on speed and momentum at the time that you so do the trigger.
Expected behavior: The car shouldnt lurch like that when using phone or removing clothing.
Evidence, notes worth mentioning, steps to replicate:
To replicate simply be a passenger in a car and open phone and then put phone away while the driver drives.

Time is ever marching on - especially when it comes to being a Triad. As the days went on and on, less people were to be found at the labs, hitting stores, etc. This just meant that there was plenty of opportunity to continue hustling on. Charlie spent most of her time organizing cooks and hitting stores. When the nights got really boring she started to host parties in and around Los Santos. It was a simple and easy way to be entertained in the city when there weren't enough police or people in the city to make criminal work worth it.
It was at this time that she got pretty close with a group of people, The Misfits. They were a cool group of people to hang with and whenever she needed backup all she needed to do was send one text and they would be on the way. This was helpful at those points in the night where there were not enough triads or zetas around as backup and random people or young gangsters needed a little reminder of their place in the city. Two Misfits in particular were always there when she needed, Brad Gordon and Donnie Bruno.
Well times march on and it came about that Triads and Zetas found themselves at odds with Misfits and a number of other smaller gangs. This was uncomfortable to be against a group she had considered friends but the saying is true - blood runs thicker than water. As uncomfortable as it was she knew exactly where her heart and loyalty lied. She spoke to Brad and Donnie about the allegations and issues against Misfits and found that it was the actions of a few and not the whole that were complicating the situation. Shortly Misfits were officially disbanded. Although this was a sad day for Misfits she knew that she had to recruit those two who had always had her back to the family. But before she could those two had already spoken to Higher Ups and started a trial on their own. She was happy to have two close friends attempting to join the family. It seemed that though time marches on that it all turns out for good in the end.
Another big change came to Charlie's life in this period. Chi had joined the Fang family months prior at the invitation of Lin Wong (nee Fang). Some months had passed since he had been deported from the city. Her brother Jae Fang had also left the city. For a good time it was just Kai, Joo, and Chi. She loved her family but for months she had found herself getting closer and closer to the Kwang family. There wasn't a member of both families that she wouldn't lie her life on the line for. When the invitation was extended she had some soul searching and thought about what she would do. After some thought and time she decided that she would join Li Kwang, and the other Kwangs as a member of the family. This is how she became known as Chi ' Charlie' Kwang.
