+/- 1
I disagree with the initial thread about completely disabled weazel ads, sorry but it's just dumb. Weazel ads are some of the only "RP" Weazel employees really get. It's practically the point of the faction, being able to disable them is basically just cutting off an entire faction.
I do agree with being able to resize the chat box to be bigger/smaller, I think this would be a great change that I'd love.
Yes that might be only way (besides talking to people face to face, making web site posts, interviews, videos, etc) in terms of rp, but it is forced on people. Just because everyone is literally forced to see it does not mean that people want to see it. It should be a basic right to choose if you see ads or don't, simple as that. Why should players suffer because of lazy developers who can't make simple phone app or other means for their interaction?

So I think that staff added this forum so people from the community have a place to propose and support community ideas, this way the devs can see what is being proposed or supported and maybe take ideas they like aswell and take them to one of the upcoming updates.
This forum is not a roadmap and the devs are not obligated to take ideas from here, its also not a place to complain or argue with other members of the community, sadly when I look at some of the recent suggestions, many threads turn into one guy arueing with the people who disagree...
I've said it before I really like all the people giving their ideas but I dont think the devs appreciate us argueing here, imagine being a dev loading up the forum looking for update ideas and then reading some of the comments here... very motivating...
If you get frustrated from the responses or the lack of implementation, take a step back.
Yeah its applicable for "suggestions" topic, however there is also "bugs" and other sections which IMHO are way more important and should be fixed asap.

I like the rgb ads, theres nothing wrong with it, it looks nice. People can choose how they want their ad to look withing the available colour palet or they can have Weazel use a template, either way the colour is not disturbing or anything imo, maybe if you have mods...
I also see nothing wrong with the amount of ads that come trough, sometimes theres an ad but its never enough to clear your whole chat and also the ads are a part of the city, they matter. If ads were disabled when the phone is off would make sence but then 90% of crims will never get ads because they play with their phones off.
Look I get it, you don't like ads irl and you dont like ads in game but changes to the server are made to improve the roleplay for everyone, the weazel faction is a necessary part of the city and if their leader thinks a change will greatly affect their ability to continue the roleplay then we should hold merrit to his opinion, definetly if more people agree. This idea has been proposed before and has received the same responses every time.
Honestly, I don't give a #@&#@ anymore. No matter how good or bad suggestion is added (not only by me), they get ignored 99.99% of the time. What is the point of suggestions section on forums, If it takes ages to either implement or deny it. Just scroll trough open suggestions that are still stuck somewhere in the middle, and you will see. Might as well add time limit after which new suggestion can be added, say, 6 months per one suggestions seems about it.

So yeah... It's not about weazel or ads (or what sort of info they carry in said ads), no, it's about game mechanic, where you wouldn't see ads with, for example, phone turned off, or dedicated app opened inside mobile phone UI.It just doesn't make sense, you wouldn't see advertisements if you would have phone battery dried out and phone closed! Those who will be interested in checking ads, would have to do something in order to see them, those who don't want to see them at the moment simply has no options to not see them. I Honestly don't know how much simpler I can explain it without people caching up on wrong ideas like "I want weazel to die" or "have personal antipathy against weazel"...

I've been looking on the discord and on the forums for updates on what's coming to the server and where development is at currently and can't seem to find one? I'm a new player on the server and there's things that I've been reading such as updates to drug role-play, a new clothing system, and other suggestions that are deemed as "Being worked on" but what does that mean?
Is it possible to get a development blog update once a month just updating us in terms of what the scripters are getting on? Percentages and even potential E.T.A's on when the server can expect things? Just to give us all a bit more clarity on what's to come and where the server is heading.
As a new player here I think something like that would be great, of course we can create role-play and use our imagination and work with what we've got but that doesn't mean we can't be told or updated in a clear manner on what's to come.
Don't worry, you are not first one to suggest it, and most likely not the last one. Something as basic as communication with players is being asked for a looooong time. Hope to see it happen one day

i have for years. been a supporter of removing Weasel ads from the chat. I personally find it MG/PG. of course it can be argued that it isn't as there are rules protecting us from Weazel ads being used to spread some IC information.
I've been trying several times over the years to get Weazel news their own App on the phone instead so that you're not forced to see ads in the chat when you realistically wouldn't without looking at a screen or being near a radio.
Yeah, it's a shame that people voices Are left unheard and ignored, yet we are encourage to post our ideas here on forums. What Is the point in posting them, if maybe 1/100 gets even reviewed and 1/100 of the reviewed ones get actually implemented.

Had somewhat similar experience - wasn't able to add 4x water bottles to the stock, because, as told by Dr.pathetic, one of the bottles was "scuffed" from burger shot. He was able to put water bottles stack inside my vending machine once he bough one additional water from 24/7, so eventually it was 5x water bottles. Maybe it was the same as in situation here, who knows. Since that happened to me (around 2 months ago) it hasn't occurred anymore.

Great suggestion and it's strange that it isn't fixed yet. I'll add my suggestion to add bleeding out effect for melee stabs - 1 stab and victim bleeds visible blood for 5 minutes dealing 25% of damage to health bar, 2 stabs - 7.5min with 33% damage etc. If someone wins a melee match by tiny bit, he/she can move or run for couple of minutes before downing due to blood loss. It could be stopped with either bandages sold/craftable, or ems. So there is more interaction for medics and it wouldn't be "broken leg" 99.999% of time
-
+1 to the pile of good suggestions. Definitely needed, 0 reasons why it shouldn't be implemented.

The thing with a /conceal or an extra "hidden" slot in the inventory is that a character in his underwear could still hide his gun and thats unrealistic.
Not that i'm against a way for people to ccw I just cant find a fair way to implement it as it would be dependent on your choise of clothing, in a sence people can already do it with clothing, bags or the glovebox.
maybe with the upcoming clothing update we will have more freedom in this.
... If that update ever rolls out, and that's a big if. Simple check could be placed, and if person isn't wearing anything, then the slot simply don't work hiding gun, it is visible the way it is now with both slots. That one hiding slot could work only if player wears clothe, then it wouldn't be abused, I think.
-
Maybe even better suggestion: since we have 2 slots for hand guns, one of these slots could have ability to hide gun by default. This way, there is no need to worry if hiding gun synced properly or not. And in case someone carries two guns, which is ICly illegal, on of the guns will be visible and it will remain it somehow balanced for police.

The issue is absolutely realism. When's the last time you saw anybody with a gun on their hip outside of their clothing? Cmon, it's unheard of. I don't think it's a matter of size in this case either because even a knife in game sits on your hip...
In my opinion, I do feel like a lot of people who disagree with a conceal option are those who seem to benefit from being able to see armed people coming a mile off. I think it really takes away from solid criminal RP which is already lacking as it is.
I have tried every jacket there is and nothing can completely hide a .50. I understand it is a larger pistol but it's still very much concealable. A long hoodie and a coat should suffice.
If the issue is balance - people being able to see that you're armed straight away doesn't feel very balanced to me. I do not see any positives or "balance" in not being able to conceal a pistol or even a knife. It works against the person RP'ing as a criminal and nothing else.
That is perfect reason why "some people" criticize it this much. Because then they will have to do actual rp to find out if someone is having illegal gun on him or not, thus less chance to trow that person in jail, and as we all know it, for some it is all their main goal and "win mentality". It makes perfect sense that one can have gun hidden under his clothes so that it isn't visible from bystanders pow, however I do believe that anything larger than hand gun (Pistols, tazers, knife and maybe some other small deadly weapon) should be visible, because realistically there is no way that someone might hide Ak47 or ak-m or whatever big rifle under his clothes.
Big, biiig +1 to this idea and it shouldn't be taking ages to be implemented, as it is important qol aspect that also should lessen the amount of MG reports due to the fact that it is uncertain if someone "sees gun poking out of someone's pocket" or no.
Overall, in my personal opinion, I don't see any negative sides to this suggestion only the one that someone has to actually script it. Please prove me wrong, I like to discuss and maybe some of my believes are wrong and maybe something slipped out of my hands.

+1 and it needs to be added right away without delaying such good suggestion for ages.

While you can take out coroner car as freelance coroner worker and put bodies in bags and then in cars, nothing happens when you want to drop off bodies at dropoff point. In past it was like this: you come to dropoff place, inside circle, and press E button. Then pop up message appears and states that bodies was dropped off, and you get +500$ to salary for each body bag that was in car (max was 5, but would be great if it was increased, to, say 10) and then after bodies are dropped, you can proceed to collect next portion of bodies. Currently, nothing happens when you press E on the dropoff point, bodies are not dropped off, money isn't paid. Please fix.

*PLEASE CLOSE THSI AND ACHIEVE*
No point in making suggestions if they never get implemented. Ill devote my time and energy elsewhere.

With the amount people turn off their phones to avoid tracing, crims would never see any adverts
I'm not fond of weazel posts being any less visible than they are currently, it's hard enough for them as is but i'm sure there's some other way other than the chatbox.
Potato pot-A-to case... Let's say people turn off their phones to not see ads or news, I think that is best of opportunity Weazel can have to prove people otherwise! If they make content that has high added value and quality, people will not turn it off that much. Because as of now, it is stale in means of, that Weazel do not have to compete for audition of viewers for their news. People see their ads on default, no matter if they want it or no. This is definition of monopoly, and under such conditions, it is rarity that any positive growth happen. On the other hand, one can argue that Weazel put a lot of work to be where they are now, however this discussion is not about this, but rather just one simple (and more than logical) mechanic, that you don't see ads while phone is turned off.
-
Good idea and You got my support. Either this, or as mentioned before, adjustable font-size/text-line count etc, or simplest of all - put weazel as seperate app on phone. Phone off - no adverts, phone on - see it as it is now.
-
+1, additionally player could be put into small space but in other dimension, so he can check how many trunk space there is, and how car handles on small speeds. It only would make sense that you can find out how big trunk is or other features, before you actually buy car.

https://imgur.com/a/xM1haC5 these are just few that i scraped from random SS without even trying to catch distracting ads, yes maybe there is not more than 3 ads per 5 minutes in my examples, but please honestly tell if this is distracting to you? to me it is. And that is on TOP of server sided messages like "remember that refueling in middle of pursuit is non-rp" etc. Too much unnecessary information, that could be avoided if these messages (weasel adds) would not pop-up with phone off.

Legal Faction Management.
Okay fair point, to me it felt like You rubbing it into my face to make me feel lesser of myself, if that was not the intent then I ask for apology. Anyways, the fact that there is now two such posts from me and XeV, clearly indicates that some things are out of place, and I don't want to explain them, if You get it then you get it. For all I meant was that players should not see ads when phone is off. People turn their phones off for sole purpose to not be distracted(and not get traced)

I'm sorry, but are you serious? Me saying I'm the leader means I can make changes alongside LFM?
I'm sorry I felt a bit out of control and might gone unnecessary cringe In my previous comment, I have difficulties to understand the meaning of some things said to me (IRL condition), but that is not excuse, of course. Anyways, I do t follow what is meant by "LFM", could You please elaborate?

Hello. You've said this on various thread, and I fail to see how using two different colors per ads is RGB, My only interaction with you ICLY is that you wanted a grey ad and got very upset over the fact we have to use two different colors.
Do you have ANYTHING construtive for me, the leader of Weazel, or do you just want to give your two cents on everything?
We have a rule that were put in stone back when weazel was first made an official faction, 3 bulk ads per 5 minutes. Which is more than enough time to respond to RP.
I'll be waiting for your collection of screenshots.
I don't have anything against you as person or weazel as organisation, yet I am against the way about how it is regarding choosing what I want to see and what I don't. This said, if I want to see ads or other news, I should have choice, my choice, made by myself and not someone other than me. If I don't want to see them, I should have choice not to see them, and I am 99.95% confident I am not the only one who thinks this way, in case it is that I am only person who has this believe about right to see what I chose to see, then I take all my accusations back, suck it up, take it like a man and ask for forgiveness out of my heart because I acknowledge that I might be wrong in the first place.
Aside from this, yes I get it it's your thing to have at least X amount of colors, and while our IC interaction did not went the way I imaginated, it is undeniable fact that most of the ads have at least 3 if not more colors and various symbols, that are larger than rest of the text font. For me this is a distraction, that I personally would like to avoid at all costs, but sadly there is no such chance to avoid it (SCRIPTLY). As part of IC logic, I believe customer is (almost) always right and he is the one who pays for service of his needs, if my character wanted only 2 colors, so what? I mean, my character would still pay a price for a service, I don't see why it needed to be such a big deal. Anyways, that is a topic for IC and I do not want to go into IC details other than explaining my vision and logic behind why I address it the way I do. If by miracle such feature gets implemented, it would mean that news would need to work harder to keep potential news users interested into using this content, meaning better quality and engagement, Listening to what customer actually wants and not just rubbing in his face "oh sorry it's policy we need to follow, nothing we can do, so here take ctrl+c ctrl+v template of colors/effects"... I hope you see where I am going.
I also don't get the flex of You "being the leader", should it change my mind or leave me speechless? Well, do You have anything constructive to answer to me, "average player, leader of nothing", or are You just gonna add "Your two cents" without listening to what is said between the lines?
In short, as I have already stated, I have nothing against weazel as such or You as "leader of weazel", what I want is simple right to choose wheater I want to consume content created by weazel or not.
Peace.

I think all cars (including helis) gas should be nerfed really. Going around the states 2-3 times before having to refill is kinda stupid. Would make people have to think more on what they are going to do.
By all means that should be done, but with the small catch. Catch being, that any Leo cannot despawn their vehicle for at least 3 ooc hours, only way to despawn by trashing vehicle. That would force for leo to finally play fair, just like non Leo players do (up keeping their cars, refueling etc) . Just do that and you will see good things happening in city
