    Burnout Nation

    Sunday, July 12th 2020, eight people gathered one day near the Merryweather Docks and created the idea of a car club called Burnout Nation whilst fishing. All of the members except for one, Don, were a part of the prominent motorcycle club, the Los Santos Motorcycle Club (LSMC). The seven members wanted a change in scenery - changing from motorcycles to cars and Don being a recent addition to the group was all for it as he was a motor-head. The eight members solidified the idea of creating a car club and spent about 5 days brainstorming a name for it - names such as The Los Santos Car Club (LSCC), Street Nation, The Burnouts, and other general ideas for the structure of the club. Everyone was skeptical about all of those names until the then-leader Maccy Kentworth combined "Street Nation" and "The Burnouts" into one - . Everyone loved the idea for the name they would begin to identify themselves as. The name was set, and on Friday, July 17th 2020, Burnout Nation went public. Everything went up from there whether it was the club welcoming in their first few members that did not come over when the founders moved on from the LSMC (Ryan Blackwell, Axel Raven, and Serena Lionetti), or if it was the celebration of having the first car show (~September 10th, 2020). After some time had passed, people left, leaving only four of the original founders, Don, Asbo, Hazel, and Jamie to continue running the club. Throughout the tough times of seeing many of the founders leave, Burnout had continued to prosper. It was around the 1st of July when Don called Asbo and told him what his plans were for a celebration for Burnout's 3 Year Anniversary. They had planned to go all-out on a car show - hosting a 3-car raffle (one for each year), a car show, and offering food & drink services. Asbo was all for the idea, and the plan was set to do the event on Friday, July 14th, but with unfortunate circumstances, they had moved the event to Sunday, July 23rd. Don was unhappy that they had to reschedule, but him and Asbo both agreed that it was only right to still do something on the actual day of the anniversary, Monday, July 17th. Don had brought up the idea of a low-key bar-b-que at his house followed by a cruise, and Asbo agreed on it. Don sent out texts to members and began to prepare for the bar-b-que - going out and buying supplies for food, making sure that the propane tank in his grill was full, and getting meats to grill from a friend of a friend. The time came, and Don got to his house and set everything out; paper plates, buns, drinks, and small snack foods. After placing everything on the table, one of Burnout's Cruisers, Josh Durry arrived. Once Josh arrived Don got his campfire going near some seating, and set everything out on a table. After finishing all of the small prep, he turned on the grill and let it heat up as a couple more people arrived. Everyone stood around and reminisced on old times, and had general conversations about their days, weeks, music, work, etc. Once the conversations got deep enough Don went over to the grill and began to put on some beef patties and some chicken thighs. After he finished doing that, he went back to the small group and joined in on the conversation - checking on the meats occasionally. After a few minutes of the food cooking Don made the call to the boys to come get some of it - telling them about all of the plates and food items there were to offer. Everyone swiftly came and got some food and ate it - then continuing to talk as they finished. Once the conversations started to come to a slow end, Don let everyone know that they were going to go on a short cruise to go see some important placed from Burnout's history and upcoming. The first location being the pond. As they arrived, Don explained: The pond was not where Burnout Nation was started, but this location is where Burnout gained it's popularity and relevance as it was in the public eye where many people fished at the time. Burnout Nation made many friendships at this location, whether it be random people just asking "what gang are you?" or other interested clubs/groups wanting to work with them on events or general activities. After being at the pond for a little bit, they headed to the next spot - the Merryweather Docks. After arriving to the exact spot that members originally spoke and came up with the idea, Don explained to them: This is where the actual idea for Burnout Nation was conceived. Burnout used to fish at the pier as their "main spot", but too many people went there to the extent that the LSPD cracked down on people parking on the pier, so they moved there to get away from all of the noise to continue brainstorming ideas for the club. After getting done explaining this and looking out on the steady waters - he got into his car and led everyone to the next spot. Don, Asbo, and Josh approached the ranch in their cars - everyone immediately recognizing the spot and talking about what they did there. As they spoke, Don interjected and explained: This is the ranch - one of Burnout's "first" Head Quarters. Burnout used to use another location in the city to have meetings and hangout when they weren't fishing, but they moved as there was a plague of car theft ongoing at the time so they moved to a spot a bit more discreet. There were times where they'd have meetings and hear animals in the background or even talking to hunters in the area asking if they had seen any animals as they sat at the HQ. Don finished explaining this and spoke more about a few memories that had happened here, such as the movie night they did in memory of Chadwick Boseman when he passed away, even to the point that the ranch is where Don had became the leader of Burnout Nation when Maccy had decided to move back to the United Kingdom. After a short pause in conversation, they headed to the next, and final location. Everyone approached the final location - Weazel Plaza Apartments. There was minor confusion from the others as they were not in the club early enough to have been there for this location, but Don explained it: This is the first place that Burnout Nation considered to be their HQ - Asbo's apartment. They did not want to host all of their meetings or activities at the Merryweather Docks or at the Pond near the pier - they wanted a place where they could sit and chat in peace or have a nice evening without being bothered. This location was their headquarters for a short time as there was a plague of car theft in the area and they were unable to do anything inside without having to go downstairs to check on a car alarm going off - even there being a point where Don was held at gunpoint and the rest of the club saved him and took down 4 armed criminals ((2-0 baby)). After that incident, Jamie informed everyone that he had a house that is out of the way that they can use to have meetings. From that point on they used the ranch to do their business. After getting to the last location is became very dark. Everyone's stomachs were still full from the bar-b-que from earlier, and tired from driving around and overall hanging out for the evening. Don let them know what was planned for the public event to celebrate the 3 year anniversary, and everyone was excited for it. Everyone split off and went to sleep for the evening and Don sat back and reminisced on the last 3 years - then heading to his home in Mirror Park and going to sleep.
  14. I had this issue as well post-update, unsure if it is our end that has caused it, or the recent Nvidia drivers that have. So far the fix I've found is to navigate through your graphics settings and turn "Texture Quality" to normal.

  16. hey @Rage_. Click on the "Start New Topic" that I've circled below. Make sure you copy & paste the format for the appeal that is in the appeal requirements section. You do not need to make one in the "ban appeals" section, those are reserved for reviewing staff to see them.
  17. Thanks for the post. At this time, there are multiple appeals pending, and we prioritize appeals that have been posted before others. I can tell you that your appeal will be reviewed soon, but I ask that you please remain patient now knowing the fact that we work through appeals in order of them being posted, not in any other specific priority.

    Burnout Nation

    Don got the Burnouts together for a small cruise around the city on a nice Sunday afternoon. (Don, Asbo, Alex, Jack, and Hanzo hanging out at the lot before heading out Josh joined them soon after they all met up. Shortly after leaving, Colt arrived and joined them.) (The Burnouts making a quick stop at Mirror Park Gas to get food and gas.) (After a quick stop at Bayview, the Burnouts stopped at the Drift Gas station to refuel one last time.) (The Burnouts hanging out at the pier with Marco, Belle, Larry, Dan, and Jay. After a few words, everyone split off to go to sleep.)

    Burnout Nation

    Don waited for about two weeks for his parts to arrive, and in the meantime, he spent time with his friends and colleagues doing various activities. As May 13th arrived, he was driving around on a Reever that he was borrowing whilst blowing time waiting for Ava Raven & Johnnie Hill’s wedding to happen that same day. As he was driving, he felt a vibration coming from his phone in his pocket. After reading the notification, he drove straight to the garage to find a crate waiting for him. Now that the crate was there, he needed a way to get it into the garage. He was tempted to ask a dock worker if he could borrow a forklift, but he looked around and noticed a pallet jack sitting near the loading bay of the garage near the Burnout Garage. After getting the crate into the garage and returning the pallet jack back to where he found it, it was time to crack the crate open. Once he got his excitement out of the way seeing that his parts arrived, he walked out of the garage and noticed a smaller package sitting near the couches outside. After picking it up and opening it, he saw the Car Show Trophy he ordered had arrived as well. He closed the box and took it with him - now knowing that he had to find Kim Taek and present his trophy to him - finally.

    Burnout Nation

    After a short break from working on the car and focusing a bit more on his work within the LSPD, Don finally found some time in his schedule to browse for some parts for the Gauntlet and order them. After finding the parts he needed, he remembered that he needed to sort out a trophy for Kim Taek from the recent car show that he was a part of and won first place in. Once Don finished ordering what he needed, he sat back in his chair and left the garage building, beginning the process of patiently waiting for his parts and the trophy to arrive so he can continue work on the car and finally reward Kim their prize. - A zoomed in view of the websites Don was using.

    Burnout Nation

    On a Saturday afternoon, Don decided to rent some Go Karts for the club to have some fun with. He let members know and a few met up at The Lot. (Hazel, Don, Asbo, and Josh hanging out at The Lot - Photo: Hazel Adams, Burnout) After waiting a few minutes Jack got on frequency and asked what was going on. After being told, he clocked off shift at the LSPD and headed to The Lot. Once he arrived the 5 headed down to the Drift Arena where the Go Karts were waiting for them in multiple different colors. (Hazel parking her Go Kart next to her Tornado Custom - Photo: Hazel Adams, Burnout) As the 5 members got to the Drift Arena, Liam, Hanzo, and Jamie began to trickle in and get themselves a Kart. Shortly after the club doing a few races, Luca Quinn and Jacqueline Perinneau arrived to see what was going on, and they were invited to join in for some races. (The Burnouts & ENVY members lined up for a race - Photo: Don Mozzarella, Burnout) Once they did a few races, Luca and Jaqueline left and headed off. The Burnouts did a few more races and decided to pack it up and head to the car show happening at Old Bayview. As they arrived, they parked up their cars and began to socialize. Don spoke with Dima Flory about joining the club and ended up giving his Burner pin. Don brought his 190z which ended up winning the car show aspect of the meet, alongside Gaven Montasser and Francesca Romano in their Yosemite Custom & Panthere. (Burnout's Coquette D10 parked at the car show - Photo: Hazel Adams, Burnout) (Multiple people crowding around the final 3 cars - Photo: Oliver Mceden, Bayview) After the car show ended and a long day of racing around in Go Karts, everyone split off and went to sleep or went back to work.
  23. What the did you just say about my offer, you little prick? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Yelp: School for Food Reviewers, and I’ve been involved in numerous reviews on multiple restaurants, including Nusr-Et, and I have over 300 confirmed 1-Star Reviews. I am trained in food analysis and I’m the top reviewer on the entire Yelp database. You are nothing to me but just another Chef. I will wipe you the out with a review the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the "Other" section in the advertisements board? Think again, bozo. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of reviewers across the world and your restaurant's address is being released right now so you better prepare for the review storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your restaurant. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can review your food in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my phone. Not only am I extensively trained in mobile reviewing, but I have access to the entire contact list of the United States Food Review Committee and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable restaurant off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. Your "soggy doggy" serving restaurant is done for, kiddo. You could have politely said no. - DM ((No OOC hate Shawn xoxo))
