Stovebombing is literally an RP only thing

Gonna be whiteshirt detective and destroy every faction on the server

My first PK they just Rp'd putting me in a trunk and burying me in new jersey

Huh, I guess I am retarded I don't remember seeing that but I guess it was there, sorry about that everyone, Thanks for being understanding, I think I was more upset about the first time that happened with Grants Oil Company, which I genuinely believed it was a legal faction before I got PK'd there. This time I did misunderstand the rules about PK's not applying to new hires if i had understood them better I think I would have just left the faction before my insane crime spree, I appreciate everyone informing me, I'll know that for next time.

I know this is bitter and salty but I made a new character, and I didn't really care what happened to him at first but later I came to regret that because I actually had fun doing RP as a crazy homeless type guy, I did some RP washing tables for the first time, took a free 10k to wash tables at a restaurant, I asked "What do I gotta do" they say "You work in restaurants and get oil shipments" I say "oh is there anything illegal about this" they say "no of course not" I ask "Do i get killed if I do a bad job?" they say no of course not, and it's frustrating because I know it's realistic for gangsters to lie to you, but also It's unrealistic for murder as enforcement to extend all the way down to people who haven't even been threatened at all and are theoretically supposed to be oblivious to the fact they're working for organized crime, it's a tad unusual too because any old idiot off the street can accept these offers then get killed for accepting them which seems exploitable, It would be cooler if they framed it as a loan or something all mafia like instead of being as non mafia as possible up until the point they kill you, which I mean maybe that's realistic, but a popup with a warning like " Hey kid you're joining a criminal faction, High Risk High reward, but Don't piss off the don" it's extra annoying because I used to work for Grants Oil company, and I thought that was legal and above board faction where you just bought oil, then I get PK'd instead of fired, when It should be obvious to someone they're working at a criminal establishment where they kill you instead of fire you, or at least something they only do when someone becomes aware of their criminal activities. Do former cops get Pk'd when they're fired for incompetence? Writing makes me feel much less salty about my PK, and If you guys want to call me or my suggestion stupid, or suggest a less stupid version of the same idea I would appreciate it. Sorry if I've been salty enough to make anyone very upset.

implement this yesterday +2

Fun RP heavy way to let people park their cars for longer WITHOUT destroying the server with lag :D TLDR: Parking meter system like the one NYC has IRL you get a pass, use it on your car, it takes more time to despawn I saw someone suggest to remove car despawn timers, but as someone who remembers when cars had to ocasionally be disabled entirely due to lag, I disagree with this, but's still annoying to have your car despawn every 2 minutes, especially if you're someone who likes to sit around and do stuff. But since I've been to NYC I thought of these old ticket systems (Model from GTA Vice City) basically the idea is these would be on the map, you'd go up to one and use money to buy a ticket, then use that on your car (like a vehicle repair kit) and it would take more time to despawn. Pros: Fixes the annoying parts of car despawning Adds a cool RP feature that isn't too obtrusive "Let me put some money on the meter" is something I've heard a lot in NYC If done properly shouldn't horribly increase server lag, but provide a great deal of convenience for players and give them something to spend money on Something new for NYC workers to fix? I don't think that matters too much Cons: Dev time, especially if you wanted to make it in a way that incentives keeping server lag down by making tickets more expensive when the playercount/car count is high or something like that, it's not too bad, i went on a journey looking for this model and for pictures of the actual tickets so at the very least that part is done. I tried to see if parking meters already existed on the map but it's protected by some program and made noises at me, so if they do this idea could just use them. You'd probably need to make a menu, just with the time you want to buy on the meter, with more money for more time. Potential to cause server lag by cars just sitting around, this could be offset easily, either disable meters when there's a lot of cars, or make them much more expensive. Disabling them sounds much easier, I should have thought of that from the beginning I could say so much more about this idea but the inside of my head is getting away from me a bit, i want to talk about dynamic pricing or the specific font on the tickets, or the specifics of how different times would be priced to discourage people from leaving cars around forever, or how they would be placed around the map but I am going to post the suggestion now and people will think about it and tell me what they think about it and that will be great. Real parking meter pass/ticket (it's confusing because the penalty for not having one is also called a ticket) this could be a MODEL/SPRITE :D :D :D :D :D
