Antonio_Colombo Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 Hello! I have had this what seems to be great idea - black market web-site for criminals and not only criminals. In two-sentences: Idea is that criminals can utilize either phone or laptop ( or other means of accessing WWW In Game using RP means ) web-page, where they only can leave their contact info ( they can also input fake info too, these can be undercover cops, scammers, etc. ...) and order for any sort of illegal item/service they look to either sell, buy or exchange. I have already designed such web-page and you can test out the idea behind it - [REMOVED URL] ( PLEASE NOTE THAT PAGE IS NOT ACCEPTED FOR IG / IC INFORMATION EXCHANGE, BE ADVISED THAT I DO NOT HELD ANY RESPONSIBILITY OF WHAT YOU LEAVE / READ THERE !!! ) Main idea is, that this web-page could be theoretically installed into everyone phone as app, much like LifeInvader LLC, where users can access it both via In Game phone menu and Real life web-browsers, phones etc. as simple website. So far it was deemed that this idea should be developed/held from administrators of EC:RP side, and it is understandable - more control over what is left there for anyone to see, data safety etc.  Idea is to some day implement such "black market" page for everyone's disposal, as in my opinion it opens up a lot of RP possibilities, to name a few: 1) Shy criminals, whom are not socially engaging, could easily find someone to sell/buy items or services they need/want, it can make them step ahead social anxiety and socialize more. 2) Police can put traps there, for example, listing an offer for assassination's or drug buying, where they catch some sloppy criminals whose are not too carefully. 3) People do not need to interact more than they need - if someone just wants to order a G or two of weed, they don't need to risk their life going on dangerous journey of obtaining such items from streets, filled with killers and other type of shady personnel. 4) ... ? As you can see, I believe this would enrich criminal life in a realistic manner, whereas not giving them any big BUFF ( speaking of buffs... *coughs * ) or advantage that Police couldn't countervail.
1Maor Posted January 31, 2023 Report Posted January 31, 2023 +1 already filled 2 listings at your site to make a decent list 1
Antonio_Colombo Posted February 5, 2023 Author Report Posted February 5, 2023 Minor adjustments: °Only user who leaves order can edit/delete it from this point (it can be deleted in other mettods accessible by me too in case user loses access to his profile or content is harmful) °UI updates I'll keep updating this until I'll loose interest Â
Salvador Rivera Posted February 5, 2023 Report Posted February 5, 2023 - Big No What I think :  this thing will Lower server Roleplay for gangs/familys/crew/corps Now people/civilian need to find people who is doing gun/drug smuggling Need to make contacts , friends Â
Smoke1 Posted February 10, 2023 Report Posted February 10, 2023 Good effort I dunno I feel like u need to grind to get in a family that also grinds to be able to access black market. Defeats the whole purpose in my opinion. It feels like a participation award. And u wanna give the cops more survence and power? Big no for me   2) Police can put traps there, for example, listing an offer for assassination's or drug buying, where they catch some sloppy criminals whose are not too carefully.

Yes that was the idea, I plan to implement some sort of autentification code, that user gets when he posts order and can tell that code, for example, in game, and then buyer enters that code in order listing to be sure that listing is original and not a trap posted by police or some maniac. On the other hand, if user does not care about safety he can fall into trap, just like in real life. At the moment it is really raw and I am still learning how to make this or other ideas that I had. It is a process, not a destination that I am looking to enjoy Edited February 10, 2023 by Antonio_Colombo
pooria Posted February 25, 2023 Report Posted February 25, 2023 -1 this will kill the interaction that we have in the server already and if you are shy as criminal maybe this is not a good RP for you to follow.
