+1 to prevent accidentally breaking nrp. Its easy to get caught up in a hectic shootout and forget to type /low which is a very small issue in the first place, but if staff is going to be issuing punishments for this as we've seen, I think there should be script support in place to prevent this rule break. Ideally I'd like to see the allowance of using a radio in /rlow in the injured state because I really don't see many situations that would rply prevent you from pressing a button when you are fully able to take out your phone and make a call, but that's just me.

Good luck. Sounds like some cool rp and the videos really nice.

Big +1 for the same obvious reasons

thread looks sick good luck

怀旧 (Nostalgia) --- Chris, Eddie, Conner and Thomas had sent out the invitations to the grand opening of their bar in Paleto. Of course there were many things to do in the city such as labs, cooking, fishing but high importance for FSO was showing face for some of their own. Upon learning the theme, FSO went to the clothing store to make sure everyone was dressed perfectly on theme: the 80s. After everyone was dressed on theme they traveled in one large convoy up north to Paleto where the event was being held. Upon arrival there was already a crowd and the venue was abuzz with life. The free entry matched with popping music and conversation filling the air made a pleasant atmosphere. FSO came in ready to party with their pockets open to purchase some drinks and settle in. Inside were all manner of folks from all walks of life. Some legal workers, some … less than legal workers. Everyone had a good time dancing on the floor. Overall the event looked to be a huge success with many people having a great time. There was one fight outside which Chi stepped in to help move away from the property, and one unlucky guy decided he wanted to be disrespectful to the ladies of FSO. But both those matters were quickly dealt with so that the partying could continue. It was important that no one would bring any of that shit to our homie’s doorstep. And to that goal the night was a huge success as well. While the venue was closing up for the night FSO stood guard on a nearby roof to ensure no funny business came by until the bar was all closed. The group decided how to spend the rest of the day when a text came in to Charlie from Aztecas. They were formally invited to a celebration that Aztecas had thrown together in honor of Mexican Independence Day. It was from one party on to the next. This Friday being a great day for relations and throwing your feet up and having a good time. FSO always had time for a little bit of fun mixed in with all the business.

태생 (Origins) Donny Bruno originally came to Los Santos from Sicily, Italy. He had been involved with low level crime syndicates in his hometown, but little did he know this would only be the beginning of his life as a criminal. Around 2010, Donny moved to Los Santos where he began his new life as a legal worker. Like many others, Donny began to mine as his primary source of income. This monotonous job was not fulfilling to Donny though, and it did not take long for him to seek out a new criminal organization to get involved with. Donny met Mikkel at the mines who ended up being a higher up with The Misfits. At the time, The Misfits were a relatively new organization who were just establishing their place in Los Santos. Donny communicated back and forth with Mikkel and eventually ended up as a prospect for the organization. Donny worked his way through the prospect phase and became an official member of The Misfits. This group had taught Donny what it took to be a criminal in this city and how to carry yourself as one. Through this, Donny made many connections with other criminal groups within the city and after attending a few parties, he became friends with several members of the Los Santos Triads. Donny had seen the triads around quite a bit and admired their professionalism and prestige. Eventually, The Misfits ended up at war with The Triads and The Zetas. Had everything been normal with The Misfits, Donny would have gladly stuck around to fight back, but seeing as their leader had been out of town for weeks, the organization was already crumbling with no central leadership and poor communication. Even at this time of war though, The Triads fought fair. They did not hit the Misfits HQ and avoided us in the city. Even when up north, they weren’t eager to jump any Misfit members. Donny knew it would only be a matter of time until the Misfits collapsed, so he met with Vince Draco of the triads to find out if he could become a trial for them. Donny knew how this would be viewed by his friends from the Misfits, and even though he knew he would be viewed as a traitor, he knew that the Triads had never wronged him and that he could gain more momentum in the criminal world by joining them. Vince allowed him to become a trial, and after a few months, Donny worked his way up to the rank of 49er. Around this time, Donny felt that it was time for him to return home to Italy. He loved meeting so many new friends in Los Santos, but he had gone so long without seeing his family. When he finally decided upon moving away from Los Santos, Donny approached Kai Fang, another Triads higher up, as well as his friend Dom Presky and brought up the discussion of him leaving the Triads. Both members were surprised by his decision, but Donny gave up his mask and explained that he must move away from the city for some time. This was not a spur of the moment decision. He had worked so hard to establish connections and make new friends in the city, but he knew that he could not abandon his family back home and thus, he must leave. Donny continued living with his family in Italy until his father received a call one day. His father said it was the FIB. They were looking for a man named Donny Bruno who was wanted for several counts of murder and armed robbery in Los Santos. This enraged Donny’s father who kicked him out on the spot. With nowhere left to go, Donny thought of the friends he’d made in Los Santos and began thinking of ways to get back into America without being discovered by law enforcement. He found a cargo ship captain who (once bribed) was willing to smuggle Donny back into America. He took this opportunity, and after arriving in America, hitchhiked his way back to Los Santos. Once there, he met with another old friend: Chi Lau. Donny had met Chi at a couple of the parties that he’d attended and was good friends with her. Chi invited Donny to join her crew called the Four Seas Order and with his criminal background and past relations with several of its members, Donny happily obliged in joining. With the FIB still looking for him, Donny knew that he’d have to change his identity to remain incognito and Chi suggested that he change his last name to Lau to match her's. Donny thought this was a perfect idea and ordered several forms of fake identification off the black market to prove that this was his name if any law enforcement demanded it. He was equipped with a passport, birth certificate, and most importantly a driver’s license to prove that his last name was indeed Lau. He even dyed his hair gray and rocked some kick ass new glasses so as to not raise any suspicion. After all of this, the new Donny was born.

Wouldn't be surprised if this post gets deleted just like the comments mentioned previously, but huge props to you @Luxas for actually having the balls to make a public discussion about this. It's so disappointing to see such favoritism within the server. It's insulting to a huge portion of the player base of ecrp to just give away official status for free to higher staff members and I hope that those staff members can understand our point of view. On the LMC faction thread, Archaeah said "All current factions (with handlers) high command members have been told what this is and informed of the purpose and future. If you want to jump to conclusions and make up your own information, keep it to yourself. None of you have actually asked directly or found out the information yourself." If this really is just a trial system for a new means of factions to gain official status, don't keep that information to yourselves and other official faction leaders. If you want to avoid drama let the rest of the player base know why you have just completely bypassed a system that countless others have worked months for so they can understand your point of view. All im asking for is transparency.

Donny's Story Donny Bruno originally came to Los Santos from Sicily, Italy. He had been involved with low level crime syndicates in his hometown, but little did he know this would only be the beginning of his life as a criminal. In the late 1990’s Donny moved to Los Santos where he began his new life as a legal worker. Like many others, Donny began to mine as his primary source of income. This monotonous job was not fulfilling to Donny though, and it did not take long for him to seek out a new criminal organization to get involved with. Donny met Mikkel at the mines who ended up being a higher up with The Misfits. At the time, The Misfits were a relatively new organization who were just establishing their place in Los Santos. Donny communicated back and forth with Mikkel and eventually ended up as a prospect for the organization. Donny worked his way through the prospect phase and became a member of The Misfits for several months. This group had taught Donny what it took to be a criminal in this city and how to carry yourself as one. Through this, one of the many connections Donny made was with Chi Kwang of the Los Santos Triads. Chi held parties late at night when there was nothing else to do in the city and Donny was always invited. He became good friends with chi and through these parties, he met many more Triads. Donny had seen the triads around quite a bit and admired their professionalism and prestige. Eventually, The Misfits ended up at war with The Triads and The Zetas. Had everything been normal with The Misfits, Donny would have gladly stuck around to fight back, but seeing as their leader had been out of town for weeks, the organization was already crumbling with no central leadership and poor communication. Even at this time of war though, The Triads fought fair. They did not hit the Misfits HQ and avoided us in the city. Donny knew it would only be a matter of time until the Misfits crumbled, so he met with Vince Draco of the triads to find out if he could become a trial for them.

He loved meeting so many new friends in Los Santos, but he had gone so long without seeing his family. One day, Donny approached Kai Fang, another Triads higherup and discussed this with him. Donny gave up his mask and explained that he must move away from the city for some time. This was a hard decision for Donny. He had worked so hard to establish connections and make new friends in the city, but he knew that he could not abandon his family back home. After a few months back home in Italy, Donny received a call from his old friend Chi Kwang. She explained how her and another Triad, Jae Fang, were planning on leaving the triads to form their own organization: The Four Seas Order. They invited Donny to join them as one of the founding members. This offer was tempting to Donny. He felt conflicted to leave his family, but after some thought, he decided to take Jae and Chi up on their offer and move back to Los Santos. When he stepped off the plane, the first thing he did was arrange a meeting with the two to discuss their plans in more detail. In the end, they agreed to bring Donny in as a Green Koi. Donny’s family in Italy was furious that he had abandoned them once again. Tensions rose between him and his family and it got to the point where they said they never wanted to see him again. This weighed on Donny and he felt as though he had wronged his family again, but he came to the realization that if he wanted to leave his mark on Los Santos, they would only hold him back. Eventually Chi and Donny formed a new family: the Lau Family. This is where Donny belonged now and he felt no regret leaving his old life behind.

I suspect that it could be someone hacking if it isn't a bug. One of the main things that differentiates one of the new apartments from a normal house is that you can simply unlock the door and walk inside, where as with any other house, you would select enter and be teleported inside the house. This means that if someone was capable of teleporting past doors, they could access everything inside the apartment quite easily. This does not explain the missing items from safes though.

Can confirm. Had 2 storage cabinets emptied overnight. One full of .50s and ammo and one with a couple AKs. Both were behind 2 locked doors excluding the main door to the apartment which was also locked.

Looking forward to rp in the future good luck boys

Agreed. In what IRL scenario would a gang leader/higherup reject someone who could be a helpful asset to the organization because they don't need any more members. Gang rp should have the same sense of working towards a position of power that real gangs work towards.

Huge +1 current crim rp opportunities are suffering and has killed my interest in returning to the server. If the purpose of the member cap really is to let smaller gangs compete in the crim world and for new gangs to emerge, this makes little sense realistically. Most major cities with a major criminal population are home to 1-3 major gangs that play a large part in the criminal activity within the city (think Bloods, Crips, Latin Kings, MS-13, etc.) so why should ecrp cap its major criminal influences in size? Realistically if a small street gang were to give rise in somewhere like LA, which Los Santos is based on, they would most likely have ties with a major organization like Bloods or Crips, or they would be pushed out of the city by one of these organizations. In the current state of things, The Triads and Zetas have built their numbers entirely off of IC decisions and becoming appealing options for someone looking to rp as a crim, so why should their IC achievements be restricted OOCly? As of right now there are around 15 active crim factions in ecrp which present each person with different rp opportunities. I think that the current faction population is diverse enough and implementing OOC restrictions to increase the number of crim groups will just spread the crim population thinner.
