Nobody at all is suggesting not to RP. Just that there should not be some mechanical game feature to PK someone. Is it really that hard to drill into your mind? That in a Mafia RP, nobody wants potions like it’s D&D? That there’s already a variety of melee and ranged options for killing someone who is active? Roleplay is hardly mechanical. At some point, the “game” part is more relevant. We already have different ammo types, and most of what you’ve said here is already shit you could conceivably roleplay with people’s consent or some foresight. Being poisoned has to be the lamest shit ever in this format. I can’t believe anyone would get behind it. Truly sinister, metagame-heavy shit right there.

I enjoy the idea of low level tasks/jobs you can repeat as a civ that give small amounts of cash but overall serve as a teaching tool for new people in the City to learn different areas and their names, etc. but the delivery job does a small piece of that. Done more thoroughly and dynamically, this could be good. I disagree with the criminal side of this. I disagree with any tiers or leveling to this, and am against a way for advancement or to make any feasible amount of money. Yes, it’s a video game. We need to game-ify certain systems to make it work and Hell, make it fun. But anything that can be used to make someone think, feel, and fabricate/extrapolate their character having a certain level of experience in the city (outside of a well written backstory) or anything to give them a fat stack of cash defeats the entire purpose of roleplay or going to a faction to make money. This, to me, overall challenges the entire point of RP which is a social and multiplayer experience. However, a good and thorough system in play to make the world alive, give dynamic options for early level work, and primarily teach people about the City would be a great asset. Very soft +1

Police pay for their own gear and or supplement their gear and get paid bonuses and have payback/trade out programs etc in different precincts across the country. No, not all the gear is just issued to officers for free. Crazy, I know. At least they don’t pay for their vehicles and get gas cards/uniforms.

It costs money to do shit in the City? Literally 1984.

After gun bags, this is the type of shit we need. Not big backpacks for tons of items but shit like this taking up chunks of our inventory so we can hide contraband from dropping in plain view but not breaking the inventory limits

Had to read this a few different times and think before coming back. -1 Sorry. Maybe if this replaced the already lackluster Russian faction.

I am retarded. Please, help.

Honestly, fair. If there’s zero incentive then it’s just a labor of love. So if you don’t love it, leave it.

-1 just go fucking play something else. What is it with you goddamn people? Fucking minge retards. You clearly have no intention to RP and have no clue what the essence of roleplay is. Go the fuck away.

+1 fishe

Abso-fucking-lutely not. -1

Lots of models are bugged I’d be shocked to see fixes

We should make our own Divergian version of these by editing this source material into IC papers and spreading them with typewriters. I’m sure that’s kinda the point of this but we can do less direct ripping and make it a fun project. I know one of my characters would be willing to do a gaming zine as a hobby

+1 as long as it is as outlined here and is in no way made able to gather your name or fish anything, as discussed

-1 can’t even stick to your guns and this seemed like an IC issue that was already addressed

Computers have always existed to take away mundane or redundant and time consuming jobs. There was a time people couldn’t wait to be replaced because we thought the economy would balance it out. That… does not seem to be the case.

I hope to never learn who this dude is in game. The urge to metagame and find a reason to hate him would be crazy but I have a sneaking suspicion he could earn it naturally and that I probably already do.

I guess I just don’t understand the rules for this “war”. I thought PK was not a possibility when you exhaust efforts to find someone and they’re inside. We have fully discussed potential raids for targets (if/when targets are stacked) and have been fully prepared for raids from opposition when we are suspected to have targets harbored in our own. We never thought PKs or bans would even be discussed as a result of this. Unreal, the AFK farm prevails. Very cool event. A conflict escalated from OOC issues turned into a shoddy and ill-conceived war, with harsh punishments for violating flaky rules. +1 this guy wrote the fucking rulebook on Mob RP. Anyone supporting this should be ashamed.

I guess I just don't understand gmod or props enough, cause I gathered a large list of props and they either weren't available for whitelist or they were too illegal w/ item counterparts so they denied it due to potential metagame/powergame/police issues. I wanted to be able to at least have some drugs broken down for use in a private setting. I was willing to take the hit if I got caught with weed props or whatever. I don't see how it's any different than spawning crates full of guns or whatever, but eh... whatever. Good luck getting some new props put in. I love using them for RP.

Hacker/metagamer/powergamer coming back to get unbanned during a conflict where tons of said behavior is the driving factor behind massive egos, metagaming/OOC beef, and idiotic escalations? Sure, dude, welcome back! -1

First time I met this guy, he OOC ranted at me about how everyone hates him because of his "rape list". I kept trying to correct course toward IC chat but he just couldn't stop talking about the server, his characters, and how everyone metagames him. He's young, from what I can tell, but that doesn't excuse the fact that he doesn't seem to learn or stray from his victim complex. I think RP isn't your thing, OP. Maybe find a new hobby and good luck in life. -1

I’m too new to appreciate how much everyone is in this but it seems unanimous; even opps agree to agree on this. +1
