After James and Jimmy arrived back to Los Santos, they go straight to work on creating a path for where they would like County Lines to go. While the past couple of weeks had been slow, they were productive. With the help of Christopher, James started building a mini lab to start drug productions in Los Santos. James had received some info from back home and was told a shipment would be delivered to one of the docks, the shipment contained 100 bricks of cocaine, this would prove useful as Los Santos seemed pretty dry of drugs currently. James asked Chris and Emma to meet him at the location to help him obtain the bags of cocaine that would be delivered. These would later be sold to a large organisation in the city known as Irish. After receiving 100 small bricks of cocaine from back home, James decided to call Mark Handley, an old friend of James'. James told mark he had some cocaine he needs gone, sooner rather than later. A meeting location was set for the sale of the drugs. County Lines wants to maintain their relations within the city. While there may be gangs in conflict, James wanted to help every organisation that could help him. James and Jimmy agreed that they would not be starting County Lines on bad terms with anybody. After a few days pass a short meeting was quickly arranged with Irish to get everyone to know each other. During the meeting James explained that County Lines' main focus would be on the distribution of narcotics. James explained that County Lines would happily help Irish as maintaining relations is one of County Lines' main priorities right now. James also made it clear that he still has family in LFM and there will be times when he would also be helping LFM too. Jimmy and James let Irish know that they have no conflicts with anyone currently and would like it to stay that way. Irish did not have a problem with County Lines helping LFM as long as they weren't shooting at them. Overall, James felt like the meeting had gone well. Irish understood that James and Jimmy still had family in LFM and were still on good terms with them even after their departure.

James Salamanca and Jimmy Highland made a trip back to England to meet with the leaders of County Lines back at home. There were long discussions about: money, expectations and leadership. James and Jimmy made it clear, they would be running the operation how they want to run it back in Los Santos. Agreements were made and it was agreed that regular updates would be given to ensure the operation starts smoothly. Once the organisation was up and running communications would then be kept to a minimum to reduce risk. Information was given on how County Lines works back in the UK, information that would prove useful to James and Jimmy. After endless meetings, it was time to go back to Los Santos. James and Jimmy would be escorted back by a High Commanding member of the County Lines UK branch. Christopher and Billy would be waiting at the Airport to pick James and Jimmy up. After landing, very few words were exchanged between the UK branch member and the Los Santos County Lines members... "Business at home is good, this needs to be worth our while or we're out" "You boys better work hard and show us you're dedicated to the cause."

County Lines originates in the UK, being one of the biggest drug trafficking practices known to the country. REDACTED and REDACTED had always been brought up in a bad environment, but there’s nothing like home. REDACTED and REDACTED were contacted to expand operations in Los Santos, an offer they couldn’t refuse. This would bring in tons of cash, something that can be hard to get your hands on in such a big city. With Italians in the family and tons of gang experience, County Lines within Los Santos is born. REDACTED and REDACTED had been contacted by a County Lines boss back in the UK to expand operations. It wasn’t public knowledge that County Lines was a huge underground Crime Family with great power. When REDACTED and REDACTED received the call it came as a great surprise, it had been years since moving to Los Santos and hearing nothing from the Crime Family. The sound of money was all they needed to hear before agreeing to start up County Lines in Los Santos. County Lines in Los Santos will be its own branch, taking its own footsteps in running operations. REDACTED and REDACTED do not want County Lines in Los Santos, to receive the bad name that had been given to County Lines in the UK. The organisation sets out to smuggle drugs throughout the city under the radar. Illegal activity will not be limited to drugs; however, drug trafficking is the main goal. Drug runners for County Lines should look like your average street thug, as the ranks go higher up the Crime Family begins to show what they're really about, running one of the biggest drug rings in the city. • Establish a hierarchy within the Crime Family • Meet with other organisations within Los Santos • Find and obtain areas of interest • Establish relations with other organisations in Los Santos • Find a reliable weapons dealer • Get drug operations up and running within the city The Boss’ rule the organization. All orders given by the Boss’ are final and should not be questioned. Any major decisions should be run through one of the Boss’ before being made. Failing to do so may result in big consequences Should the boss’ be unavailable, the underboss is able to make decisions in place of them. The Underboss has one of the biggest responsibilities but carries the biggest risk as they must always make the right decision. The Boss’ right hand man. The Consigliere should advise the Boss’ on their decisions and plays one of the most important roles in the crime family. Consigliere should be considered trustworthy and able to provide sound advice when needed. A Caporegime, otherwise known as a captain has the ability to lead a team. Typically, a Caporegime is expected to lead teams of at least 10. However, more can be expected of them if needed. County Lines wouldn’t be County Lines without a Trapper. A trapper is able to lead rings of traffickers and look at potential recruits. A trapper is expected to keep drugs running through the business’ and teach the new soldiers how it’s done. A Street Hustler knows the ins and outs of the business. They are trusted members of the Crime Family and are expected to be an influence to the soldiers. A full member of the Crime Family. Soldiers have proven their ability to be welcomed to the family. They have gone through an initiation and an agreement has been made to bring them in. Associates are not only friends but also potential soldiers for the future. County Lines do not have recruits. Associates are not apart of the Crime Family but will typically work for them and help their organisation. • Respect everyone within the Crime Family • Understand the hierarchy within the organisation and respect it • Show no hostility to any organisation unless instructed to do so • Respect other organisations space and privacy • Be available. You may be needed by your family ⦁ Admin Records should not be extensive. Large amounts of admin logs will be taken as if you cannot follow server rules. ⦁ No Toxicity | We will not tolerate any toxic behaviour from our members. Anyone who does so will be removed without warning. ⦁ Have an excellent understanding of the server commands: /me & /do. We pride ourselves in creating unique RP experiences and you will need to understand these commands appropriately. ⦁ You must be willing to adapt your character in a way that makes sense within the faction. This means understanding where County Lines originates and understanding what type of organisation we are portraying. ⦁ County Lines should lead by example. Anyone who is seen as playing to win or playing to “fight” others will be removed. The faction should be focussed on RP over everything else.

Actually a really unique idea and look forward to seeing more. Like that you got some Kali Linux in there haha.

Nosotras Somos Familia (We Are Family) James Salamanca AKA McPuffin, wanted the family to get together at their HQ. He wanted the members of the Familia to show that they are dedicated and faithful to one another. James wanted everyone to show that they could trust each other with their lives, so he decided to carve the letters "LFM" into each one of their chests. This would not only be a test of their commitment but also a test of strength. James asked everyone at the HQ to line up against the wall, apart from High Command and Higher ups. Everyone was asked to remove their shirts. Nobody had any idea what was going on so looked at James in a funny way. However, it all started to make sense as he got to work. James went to each individual in the line asking them if they are willing to show their commitment to the Familia. Each one of them said yes before having LFM marked into their chest. Diamh stood out to James as he took his hand and carved LFM into his own chest. James took this as a sign of courage and trust. This made James happy as Diamh was one of the members of the Familia who he had recruited. It made James feel as if he had good judgement of character.

+1, Personally I find myself typing /do's to check anyone that's conveniently walking along multiple cars. A bit NRP to be trying trunks on a row of cars and people do it because they know there's no indication to them doing it.

Agreed, I think a better solution would maybe to reset the AFK script timer each time a game input is given. IE When fishing. If someone is actively fishing it should be resetting the timer. Generally just some extra parameters that reset the timer would be a huge improvement. As Alexalex as said a 60minute AFK timer? - This is 60 minutes for someone to contribute absolutely no RP what so ever to the server so why should they be on the server doing nothing for 60 minutes? There may be exception where this would help but i think the cons outweigh the pros by making the time 60mins.

+1, WE NEED THIS

I like this a lot I've heard some stories ICly and hopefully we cross paths at some point to back them up haha

I find this happens almost all the time until you pull the heavy out and then put it back on your back which seems to resync the script for the client. So when you join the server heavies most of the time wont show on your back until you hold it in your hands then place it on your back which gets the script going.

Mischief In a time of boredom James Mcpuffin decided he would get a few of the soldiers and recruits together and cause a little bit of trouble around the city. The night started off with scouting around for potential vehicles to take to a chop shop. Someone had conveniently left their bike behind a stall on the pier. With people minding their own business, Rebecca got to work on the bike while James and Kon kept lookout. They were all keeping an eye out for witnesses ensuring nobody was watching them. The pier is a popular location even during nightfall. Unfortunately the bikes tampering system notified it's owner so the Familia made a swift exit from the pier, they were not hanging around for the police anytime soon. After a long night of stealing vehicles Familia decided to hit up a few stores. The city was surrounded by cops so the best place was to head up north. James, Rebecca and Kon kept lookout while the others went into the stores to hold up the clerk and grab the cash. Everyone hid their vehicles out of sight to ensure any officers driving by would not suspect a thing. The morning was successful with multiple stores hit up north. After hitting some stores up north the Familia decided it would be a good time to head to a drug lab. Nobody had interrupted the Familia at the drug lab and they relaxed while they let their plant grow. James Mcpuffin loves the smell of weed, he likes to smell how potent the plants are as they grow. Each member gathered enough bags for themselves and decided to split ways. Throughout the night and morning the Familia caused issues for anyone trying to get in their way. As a Mexican cartel La Familia do not take kindly to people trying to stop them in their tracks.
