RICO shouldn't, and doesn't, need to return because, as others have said, it is simply too broad and powerful. This was the reason it was removed in the first place (among other issues with the FBI at the time). Instead, there should be systems or processes added to place that supplement the OOC rules to verify the integrity and reliability of evidence so that the hard work detectives do don't get voided at the last minute because of suspected metagame or powergame. Good place to start may be verifying with UA, before thorough investigations begin, that a certain confidential informant is actually a long-term player that would have realistic knowledge of a faction's high command identity/activities instead of an ordinary member with a mere grudge, or a new member with no knowledge of what they're really doing.

+1 Bring back shubert trucks for this as well (possible lobster racket return??)

We'll look into this

This has been done and should now be reflected on the form.

Might need to bring in the NSA as well...

what happens when interest rates are high (25 January 2022)

You do know that Commerce gives people like 5 days to register one before they get fined?

+/- 1 I'm not sure about your idea on the drug pricing, but I've been waiting 5 years for a dynamic economy that changes prices according to supply and demand, even for drug npcs. Sell too much of a single drug -> supply is too high, demand is low -> price falls. On the other hand, if a drug isn't getting enough sales --> supply is low, demand is high --> price rises. UA faction events (those that canadian runs) could also impact the demand levels, idk. Food for thought! I'm sure there are some math/programming nerds on the server (mr john green...) who would sacrifice their time to help come up with such a system! +1 re: rotating npcs for the pure reason of needing to find them every now and then, and needing to adapt supply routes, etc.

Like I said in a comment to a previous suggestion, I don't think money laundering will ever work unless the server develops a way to distinguish between "legal/clean money" and "dirty money". @Bodges has a really good idea regarding this. End of the day though, aside from bi-weekly flat rate taxes, no one wants to report any sort of income or do document rp. I tried it before 3 years ago and it wasn't very popular at all.

If a gun is more OP or dangerous, it won't be a class 1. If a gun is bigger than a pistol, it won't be a class 1. Guns are classed based on size, difficulty of use, and the danger they pose.

money printing rp. Can only work if they add a dirty money / clean money system. @Bodges has a good idea for this.

Enterprises with gambling licenses can already do horse races or sports betting. Nothing stopping them from doing it as long as it isn't rigged or fraudulent.

No. Instead, public executions.

Just put more thought and time into creating your character

5 years ago, Winston Yu entered politics as a city councillor.

Marketplace (or Mall) area where people can setup stalls idk, maybe in or near the park? Also this:

flash backs

The "tools" cops have at their disposal is just shooting the guy that's running away from them, which is not what they're supposed to do lol

+1 Always wanted to see the other stuff around the city like billboards, phone booths, and the static properties being used somehow and in some way.
