There is a longer history on Diverge of ragtag groups of muggers, little gangs, and people trying to start factions who struggle to get a leg up when it comes to starting one. That is why I am recommending a new whitelist - similar to Civilians but it grants people a way to become criminals without joining a faction straight out. They'd get access to rumour, but would not gain access to any rackets or anything of the sort. How would you join? It would be similar to the old system of getting whitelisted to a faction most likely - you ask staff unless it's accepted and they had something in mind coding wise. Pros and Cons? This would give Detectives a way to get way more street busts. Go undercover as a basic level criminal, and finds way to root out criminals. Would give them more things to investigate, and how to investigate. It would give people a way to start factions without having to use another factions whitelist, and would allow them to build themselves up. It would allow people to start small gangs, as we all know the lords above will not allow another street gang. All in and all, it may be a healthy addition to the server to allow people to act like basic criminals without becoming a mafioso persay.

Rumour represents the connections you gain from being connected to a larger criminal conspiracy (a faction). To give this to lowly street gangs with no structure is illogical.

Diverge is a very diverse place filled with many different types of people. The Joe Pesci wannabes, the british kids, and even femboys, this server has it all. But what I really want to address is the duality of larp. On one hand you have a group like the Gambino family, they do a badass ritual just for becoming associate. They put the rp experience before all else. On the other, you have people like Codda who want to steal the Ark, Larp KFC, or even people who larp as clown bikers! One side puts genuine effort into improving the rp experience, while the other side seems to treat the server as if were are in a sandbox or darkrp server. This is like when immigrants flood into a country and try to change it to accommodate themselves when its them who need to acclimate and adjust to our way of larp. The immigrants are low iq minges, and the citizens are the awesome og larpers. Why does this matter? I think it matters because when people move into your home (my home is diverge) and try to fundamentally change the things that make it your home, its giving them an inch to take a mile. If you let these low quality players change the fabric of the server enough then we will become what we tried to separate ourselves from! Darkrp!! How do we fix this? We must enforce larp like its a hl2 server!! Not just the staff, but you and me!! #LetsSaveDiverge #InThisTogether #PlusOneMe In this forums post DopeAsRoe talks about the duality of larp, and how you and him can fix it together. Feel free to add me on discord tldr: make larp great again

and the sky is blue twin

You're right

make this guy UA or im gonna bring my freak turkish homies and coup the server ong

their* dribbler.

Organized outfits and even sometimes law enforcement saw these petty criminals as civilians, and creating an entirely new whitelist for something that can already be roleplayed through the regular civilian wl seems redundant. They would also likely have to rework escalation/conflict rules as well because I assume that a mix of criminal organizations under the same wl would cause some issues. They could just add rumour to civilian wl like its on the oil factions but i dont really see the point, they dont need rumour because they dont have any rackets. Street gangs often get a bad rep but for good reason, they are usually filled with low quality players or minges. Making a wl for them may cause more harm than good. What would these people do? Mug, steal cars, raid? Seems like a WL that only people like string would join. I noticed that you didn’t put any cons under the “pros and cons” section tldr: unnecessary, would probably turn into a minge faction. - DopeAsRoe, King Genovese I, The Cruel, Thinker, Genius.

yea or no me personally i dont care either way

did you make this or is this british humour?

me when evidence and evidence

I got to play youtube videos for like 2 weeks before this shit broke forever. Still can't use it till' this day!

yea its broke

Your simply buy the permission to use the media player this is an addon made by someone else

+1- Me and Jangerine were literally talking about this today- At reset the map should either go night or day

i remember pendred saying to one of those diverge troll videos something like “this is why people think we are like darkrp” and i think that pendred would agree with me, wherever he is now

serious mafia larp

Hello, Once upon a time we removed the ability for properties to have food registers, in place of that we set up Shipment NPCs where people could order in food items (in bulk obviously), and then transport them to the property, and store them for selling to people. At the time, this was somewhat unpopular due to a few issues. Such as: - Storage entities were frequently being wiped, which would mean people would spend many hours organizing stock and arranging deliveries, just for it to be wasted. This is no longer an issue as storages permanently persist. - Having to have millions of storage lockers to store them in, making it difficult to effectively organize. - Lazyness. But this is a task that should be delegated to lower ranking members. - The old shipment system had dogshit configuration, so you couldn't order multiple at once. - Whatever else, it was years ago I don't remember. So we eventually reintroduced property vendors, but with a limit of 15 items. Today, I was reminded that we once had this system. Thinking about it, I realize that its reintroduction would come with many benefits, such as. - Not having to rely on me or Canadian to get on and change vendors when you want something changed. Which is a lengthy process, getting approval from FL, making the UA ticket then waiting for us to change it. - Being able to sell a wide range of food and drink items, instead of being limited to 15 pre-selected options. - Boost of available roleplay - new hires can be assigned as delivery boys, restaurants will have to organize their stock and have dedicated people managing it, ensuring supplies stay available, and much much more. We would make the following changes with this: - We would create a new type of storage item, that has a much larger inventory space, but in return it would only be able to store food items. Thus resolving the issue of having to have 100 storage items. - We would update the Shipment NPC UI to have organized categories so it isn't all cluttered together (like it is now). There would be tabs, nice and organized. - Shipment timing for food would also NOT be the same as drugs/guns. They would spawn immediately for collection. So I wanted to see what you all think - would this be something you'd like to see? I cannot see any real downsides to this, other than lazyness / not wanting to RP. But maybe there are some - so by all means let me know if there are. Or perhaps there are other things that would need to be done alongside what I have proposed. Either way, please let me know your thoughts.
