Yputi Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) Hello! So I have been working on a simple site for Bayview lately, using Google Sites, which is free! I came with the idea when I found out Google Sites got updated to a new version and I gave it a try. Then I started to realize that having IC sites (actual sites) would make more sense RP wise. I went ahead with starting to make some sort of demo site, so I could later made a topic (this one) and include that example in here. I talked a little with people in the Bayview Discord about it and they agreed it would be cool to have an actual site instead of forum topics. Many people refer to their forum topic as "our site" already, so having an actual one would be very sweet imo. A good adventage is that Google Sites works very well with all other Google Service; Sheets, Docs, Calendar, Forms, etc and it's also super easy to manage, giving people different permissions to edit, view and do many more to the site. The main reason why I create this topic is to discuss/get to know if having an IC site is not against the rules and/or more factions like DCC, Weazel and LSC should/have the option to do it. Here I have the example I made. Be aware, some things are just there to test it out and the information given is random, just as an example: https://sites.google.com/view/bayview-auto-center Edited October 10, 2019 by Yputi 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobottoOtto Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 This would be so cool! Hope this is possible and can't wait to see other government factions having something like this! Especially Weazel news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yputi Posted October 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Someone also showed me this, which was made long ago for a vehicle dealership using Wix https://rval74.wixsite.com/heavyflow/off-road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenichis Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 I think this would be a great idea for business and government factions such as PD, DCC and LSC etc. However, I think an OOC thread for official gangs should stay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same goes for SD, MD and DOC. Anyways, really cool idea there! That's looking really good, would be cool if all factions could change it up (other than gangs ofc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FleecyJake Posted October 14, 2019 Report Share Posted October 14, 2019 We at LSC have made one but I believe you need founder approval or approval from a higher up admin looks good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a good place to post press releases or events for PD, say a fundraising event for a local charity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they got people willing to spend time on it and as long as we can find out where/who to exactly approach for this to get this done for factions that want it Edited October 14, 2019 by Yputi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the meeting the factions have organised, I believe they switch to OOC after the IC stuff is done and an admin is sometimes there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
