Ahmed Abraham

Long live 67, from black to blue. Shout out all the homies that got banned while in the gang and to all the bums that got smoked by us too.

你好

The best of the best, keep running shit

You made excellent points. People will choose to critique one point that may argue in their favour but not congratulate you on the other issues that you made clear.

This happens with other cars too. The Rapid GT does the same but only when there is visual damage to the car which I can see in your second POV. It's a little weird but might be a GTA physics issue?

Hostage RP doesn't exist here. DM rule prevents you taking action against the hostage if cops fail to meet your reasonable demands. Cops fail to display fear rp - I have seen two outcomes of a hostage situation. The first ended with the cops using a sniper to line up a shot on the mans head despite being EXTREMELY close to the hostage. There's an emphasis on 'realism' but if we look at wind and other factors, that shot would have never been taken. It was the complete opposite of RP. The second ended with cops planning to blast the suspect when he stepped away from the hostage. What happened was the cops sprayed him down from several different angles with the hostage close by . The same issues from the first scenario applies to this. Once you lose your leverage, cops take action immediately because it's "realistic" and what should be done. There is zero focus on fun and understanding that we are playing a game. Cyrus above me summed it up well. Cops should still have a slight advantage but don't simply shutdown this type of RP because you gotta win to save the city.

Had the roughest start ICly but who would have ever known that we would have built such a strong relationship. All great things must come to an end but I'm forever thankful to the friends I had made

It's been a pleasure fighting along side you guys from More Blood to 67 and then to be welcomed into the family with open arms. Only proud of what we have built and become Mi Familia Sobre Todos !!!

Stop saying the nerf made it realistic. The nerf made it unusable. If we really want to talk about realism, that bike should be accelerating rapidly and hitting crazy speeds. Stop disguising your hatred for the bike as an issue of "realism", although a nerf was necessary it was without a doubt, too extreme. -1 for buffing the turning/handling. +1 for buffing the speed and acceleration.

Love this legal faction's RP, keep it up!

Yo this looks promising, can't wait to finally see a proper Illegal Italian Mafia!

With the nerfs to drags fuel before the nerf to the turning radius, I know a lot of people that used the bike as a tool rather than a vehicle that they drove 24/7. When preparing for a bank heist or assisting friends to escape police, it was a good and effective tool. The fuel consumption was so harshly nerfed, it required frequent stops to fuel up if you were just driving it about which made it very risky as you'd rather have it fuelled up and ready to be deployed as soon as you needed it. This felt like an understandable nerf that had the potential to reduce the amount of drags seen on the road accompanied by the fact that drags are unable to go off road it had also given PD a much greater chance of catching you. Of course a PD cruiser will not catch a bike especially one that cost millions but when a criminal's tool (drags) was facing up against PDs counter tools (xray, PD bikes and supers) then it was a different story. It was no longer a ridiculously easy game of 'take two turns and you've lost PD' or 'drive up a hill' but rather forced us to think smartly. Someone who invests into a drag deserves the full advantages of a 2.5 million dollar bike. From a criminal's perspective, things weren't the same - we would no longer put our full trust into the drag knowing that we could go from 0 to 100 in 2 seconds (a little exaggeration), drive up a hill/off road or sit on our drags 24/7 without refuelling. My point is, there are different ways to deal with the drag as a meta vehicle and since it has been around for an extremely long time and also a prized possession for criminals, nerfing it to shit is an extreme and inconsiderate way of dealing with the issue. I understand that the drag may not perform realistically, but as previously mentioned, Eclipse isn't a 1:1 of real life which can be reflected with many different scripts and things in-game. A better solution would be to see how drags would be used after a longer period of time with the current fuel nerf rather than giving it a couple of days. Or you could give PD a greater arsenal of tools if drags are really an IC threat to them rather than take this OOC. I could go on with the different ways that drags could have been dealt with but I think you get my argument here (hopefully). TLDR - The issue with drags could have been treated ICly by giving PD more counter tools or maybe not, shouldn't a rare bike deserve to win?? For the OOC aspect, factions and people who use drags outside of their lore vehicles as anything other than a tool for a crime, should be punished.

Very creative and unique, going to be amazing!

The homies for real. Only had great RP interactions from the very start to now - where we end. Appreciate it all and I wish all the best my gs.

After landing in Los Santos, it was Kane's and Sam's priority to find a place to reside. It was definitely a difficult obstacle to overcome as they were not willing to lose their London culture but little did they know about Dutch London St. Upon cruising through the city, they noticed that this area resembled hoods that they used to live in - council estates. Thus it was a perfect spot and decided to purchase property immediately after they could afford to. They informed their other friends who came from London about this and they quickly approved of the area and called it home. After claiming this area, they would slowly start to gain new neighbours who liked the vision of More Blood and decided to rock purple. Little did they know that this area would turn into a central hub for the gang as a place to gamble, vibe to music, flaunt their wealth and discuss important matters. More Blood’s continuous growth and success lead to their members pulling up to Dutch London St in their expensive and luxurious cars, flaunting their iced out jewellery and heavy weaponry. While some members enjoyed flying around on motorbikes, performing wheelies and burnouts others would be throwing dice for a couple thousand dollars. As people learnt about Dutch London St, it became a place where allies would turn up to relax and feel a sense of security but also where the opposition would ignorantly try to slide, only to be immediately shut down. Dutch London is of significant importance to the gang, not only has it allowed them to grow into what they have become today, but it continues to provide them with growth and a safe haven to members who lack a sense of security from our main enemies, the Los Santos Police Department. While it is standard for members to always be strapped up, having a home and a family provides them with a greater feeling of security as they never know what LSPD has to offer. It is the norm for members to despise the feds as they are the gangs biggest threat, being able to shut down their drug laboratories, street sales and intercept during the process of chopping vehicles. Gang members are proud of where they originate from and sometimes like to ride in vehicles that remind them of their time in London. Their culture and tradition is significant as they have only seen success from living by it, so from time to time they enjoy flexing their roots and times when they couldn’t afford much but a cheap scooter.

Congrats brothers, all well deserved

Sadly, all good things have to come to an end, we appreciate all the fun RP opportunities you gave us. So long friends

Love the recent posts, keep it up!

Some lovely posts and great people to rp with, keep it up!

"Oh how times have changed... You get a different vibe when you now focus on developing your organisation internally. To say I don't reminisce being the underdog is a lie, but the city decided it was no longer More Blood's time - instead, it chose [REDACTED] and [REDACTED]." Every time someone shouted "war", Ahmed Abraham knew nothing but to swing his assault rifle over his shoulder and tuck that micro in between his hip and jeans. Why wouldn't he? These men in his sights once fought with the goal of turfing More Blood from Los Santos, but they still rose. Countless months of guerrilla warfare against several gangs had only made him hungry for more blood, so you'd think he would sympathise with [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] but that made no sense to him. He had no choice but to fight them and tuck any excuse away, it was his time to make them pay for their cowardly ways. Of course, the feeling of guilt would rush him but a little glance at his brothers would remind him of everything they've been through and what they're fighting for. He curls his fingers into a shape resembling 'MB' and shouts "More Smoke, More Blood, More Blood, the better" After talking with his fellow higher ups, they agreed that it was time to develop relations where it seemed fit and it was determined among them that while bloodshed is necessary, it does not have to be forced. To be continued...

Hell yes, +1

@retronub Fire brooo!!

It's been 4 months since Ahmed Abraham joined the city and it's been nothing but mistakes and learning to adapt to a foreign environment. Learning experience number one - "peds" don't work on these huge streets since roads are not narrow like London. Speed has grown in importance and Ahmed quickly learned that an affordable bike that would remind him of his nippy, scooter days was a Hakuchou. It's increase in engine power would correlate well with the larger roads and facilitate his fast paced lifestyle. Whether that's dipping from a crime scene or racing to back his boys, it was essential that he was equipped with the right vehicle. While he spent his days learning, some things never changed. Ahmed reminisced of the days where chilling on the block was an everyday occurrence - a spliff was sparked that kept his hands warm and ready for any opps that would try slide. Bumping into good friends in Los Santos called for one thing, and that was having a zoot outside the shop after purchasing a cold beverage. Police were built different here. As police would drive by in London, he and his homies would taunt them by throwing gang signs and threatening them but Los Santos was different - most of these cops were evidently cold-hearted killers and wouldn't refrain from pulling the trigger for the slightest sign of disrespect. It's obvious to Ahmed that this learning experience will not end any time soon when he found out the hard way that his trusty kitchen knives and crowbars were of no use when handguns and heavy weaponry were roaming the streets. Ahmed's ego and status can't be protected by such simple tools anymore as even a foolish armed with a handgun would be prepared to tarnish it. It's inevitable that he'll get his hands on some firepower but it's curious to know what he plans to do with it...

I love the whole approach with PD being your enemy and not other gangs, very unique and interesting. Good luck
