Ranking Faction Hire RP

[Fox]

I'm making a stand against your boring, standing around RP!

I have decided to join every faction on the server, incognito to find out which factions have the best and which have the worst, 'new hire RP'.
Don't take it too seriously, it's all for fun. I'm aware that different people will hire people differently, take your factions ranking with a pinch of salt.

if your faction isn't listed. I'll be updating with the missing ones as, and when. There are some older reviews that I will also be updating to. 

For the factions that haven't been reviewed yet, you get the upper hand in knowing, i'm on my way.

 

 

Rules

- There must be a minimum of 5 players online for me to join the faction.

- There will be no bias from myself. The ranking is purely based on my experience with being hired into your faction.

- I will stay entirely in character and avoid any OOC talk.

- I won't let it slip that it's me, just in case there is any bias.

- I'll RP a lot with /me's

- If the opportunity presents itself, I'll make at least 1 mistake to see how the employer reacts.

 

 

Takahashi      1/10

I walked into the Pho King and asked for a job. After a few minutes of two people discussing who would hire me, I was brought to the nearby bank and given some clothes. I was then told to stand outside and work security, without being told how. I was left entirely on my own for the full duration of the hire. The only time people would interact with me was to get my name. There was a bunch of mid to higher up guys inside just discussing OOC stuff and minging for almost the whole duration. 

After my mandatory 30 minutes of being AFK, I was brought into the back and then whitelisted in. I was given no formal introduction, wasn't given any faction rules. Just a pat on the back and told to 'go grind'. 

PRO: None.

CON: Too many people messing around, nobody was serious at all.

 

 

Lucchese      8/10
I walked into the Blue Lobster and asked for a job. I was pulled into the back and quizzed right away. I was asked what experience I had and was made to answer questions about myself. I was quickly given some clothing and a bat and was put on security. The job was fully explained to me, and I was told who to go to if I had any problems. It wasn't standing outside for long before one of the managers shouted me inside and threw a cloth at me and told me to wipe down some tables. He watched as I was wiping them down, telling me I missed a spot etc. There was also another hire working at the same time who was making a bunch of mistakes, and was getting chewed out for it, which made the RP more exciting. I was then asked to take a milkshake over to a table, I deliberately dropped it on the table and the customer made some noises because it had spilt. The manager apologised on my behalf and made me clean it up and get a fresh one delivered. 

After that I was returned back to the door. After a small amount of time I was brought to a secluded location and was told that I was being invited into a family, I had the family rules fully explained to me and was eventually whitelisted in.

PRO: Good resteraunt RP. Was a little different from the usual standing around, although there was a little of it. Great RP skills of those inside.

CON: Could be amped up even more, really give the new hires some bitch work to complete.
 

 

 

Rudaj           4/10

I approached their bakery and asked for a job. There was a bit of back and forth with the employer asking me questions, to make sure I fit the bill. He got me fitted for a suit and gave me a bat and told me that I was going to be his personal security and I needed to accompany him whilst he takes care of business. He brought me along to his shipment collection, and to pick up some of his friends. During this time I was accidentally hit by a car and almost killed. The guy who employed me took it personally and made it his mission to track the guy down and make him apologise.  This would've been a good way to fill the time with some RP but the employer constantly spoke OOC and just wasn't taking it seriously at all.


After some driving around and recon, we found the guy working at the Takahashi gun shop. We went in and demanded an apology, the individual apologised and we moved on. We then went back to the bakery and I was whitelisted in straight away. Wasn't given any low down, or rules etc.

 

PRO: Fun little side mission, although I think if I wasn't hit by a car, I would've ended up standing around for the entire duration. A happy accident.

CON: RP wasn't taken seriously at all.

 

 

Sons of Silence        5/10
Headed to the Dead Dog Saloon and asked for work. I was quickly taken care of, and got situated with a suit and a baseball bat. I was put to work on security, which came with the standard 'standing around RP'. I was tabbed out for almost the entirety of this. Although the hiring RP was incredibly boring, I will note that the faction members stayed in character really well and the people who I did get to interact with, role-played really well.

After my mandatory standing around time - I was brought into the warehouse and this is where the RP got a little more exciting. The employer wasn't just going to invite me in. He conducted a full interview before hand. He wanted to know things like where I was from, am I a good mechanic and what certain things meant to me etc. I answered all of the questions and then was whitelisted into the faction. He then reeled off the rules (which actually sounded a lot like the Diamond rules I wrote years ago lmao)

PRO: The interview before whitelist was very in-depth and actually made me think about how I would respond, like my answer mattered to me getting into the club or not.

CON: Way too much standing around doing fuck all. With an entire bar inside, my entire RP experience was confined to standing outside a door.

 

Altoviti        5/10
I approached the motel and asked one of the workers for a job and he told me to follow him. He took me to the hardware store and clothing store to get situated. We then walked back to the motel and I was told to hang around in case 'something happens'. I waited for 5 or so minutes before he asked me to accompany him to the electronics store and back. After that I headed back to the Motel where I met some management, briefly.

I was then tabbed out for around 20 minutes, with utterly no interaction at all. Eventually the manager came back and my employer asked if he could get me in full time. He said he needed another 5-10... I waited. After that I was brought into the Motel back room and asked a few questions and then got invited into the faction. 

After I was brought in, the manager told me to come with him to the car dealer, where I was given money for a company car. He then took out his own car and told me to drive, to get a feel for the city. He told me to head to Corbizzi's, I was given directions because I didn't know where it was. 

As we arrived, he brought me up to the Napoli rooms and this is where I was given the full family rules and told what is expected of me. The manager's RP was very good and stayed in character the whole time. As we left Napoli I was introduced to some more whitelisted members, who all interacted with me and asked questions, rather than just fish for my ID.

PRO: The post whitelist RP was fun, eventful and I actually felt like I had joined a mob.

CON: It's a shame everything before it was incredibly boring, with little to no RP. It's crazy that with a property the size of the motel that new hires aren't cleaning rooms etc.

 

 

Bonanno       2/10

I approached Dom's Diner and asked the guy outside for a job. He asked a few questions and then said 'wait here whilst I get you some clothes'. Around 5 mins later he returned and gave me some clothes. I put them on and he explained that I would be working security. I was never told how to work security and wasn't even given a bat. I stood around for over half an hour almost entirely AFK. There was occasionally a higher up who would pop in and out and interacted with me and showed his RP skills by making comments on my chars description (i put that I had a silver cross around my neck), but it was mainly to get my name. As time went on there was the odd conversation with my employer but he every time he would go somewhere else and leave me on the door. There wasn't much RP at all. 

Eventually I was pulled into the back and given the discord link, He didn't have hire perms though, so I was left without a whitelist and told to 'find someone who can hire you in, you are fully hired but you just need to find someone who can whitelist you'. 

There was no formal introduction. I didn't feel like I was about to join a mob at all.

PRO: One of the other hires was always in character. 

CON: Everything else. Almost no RP at all. Standing around simulator.

 

Supreme Team      6/10
I made a black character and hung out where I knew Supreme hang out. I spoke to a random dude and asked for a job. I was brought to the apartment block near the car dealer and told to hang tight. I met a few people whilst my employer ran off to get me some clothes and a bat. When he came back he gave me them and got me situated. I was standing on the door for maybe 5-10 minutes top when I was then told to get in a car and brought to the docks. From there I was whitelisted in straight away, after joining the discord.

From then, I was brought to the car dealer and was set up with a custom car, I was told to get in another car and go with some of my new gang members. I was brought to the ghetto and was told to empty the trunk (it was full of weed growing stuff). I was brought to a room and my employer explained to me how to grow weed and he went through the full process. After some time doing a grow, I accompanied them to to the docks and I was told I need to make 15k in a week to qualify for a promotion. I was told to grind oil, I then left on my own to go and do that. Worth noting that everybody stayed in character pretty much the entire time. Definitely felt the African-American vibe.

PRO: Stayed in character, set me about growing rather than standing around.
CON: Where this falls short is how quickly I was whitelisted. If the growing and stuff was included BEFORE I was whitelisted then this would've been a higher mark. Also the rules, and formal introduction are needed. The only thing i was told was 'get 15k'. I was never even told the name of the faction lol




Gambino     10/10
I approached their restaurant and asked for a job. I was asked my name and briefly quizzed about what I was looking for, my employer was roleplaying with an accent and brought me into the back. He got me situated with a knife and some clothes and he told me to stand at the door, and in the same breath he changed his mind and invited me to go for a walk. I was brought around all of Little Italy and explained where was good, where was not so good etc. We walked through city hall and stopped off at a bakery and had some good restaurant RP where we ate banana bread and talked openly about the city, my history etc. After that we hit a server crash so I just went back to the business and was introduced to somebody else. He took me on a short walk to Napoli where I was frisked. We roleplayed him taking my boot knife off me. I was then brought into a room where I met some shadowy figures and was presented with a choice, take my pay and leave or take a weapon and see how far the Italian RP rabbit hole goes. I of course chose the gun, I was told that there is someone who owes some gambling debts that needs to pay up or I need to take him out. My new hiring rep walked me down to the area and waited outside. I knocked on the door of the boathouse and asked to use the phone because my car had broken down, once inside I pulled a gun and demanded the money from my mark. He shrieked and started shouting about not having it as he spent it on his daughter's cancer treatment. I executed him.

Upon walking back to the room I was made to recite an oath, if I wanted to continue on my journey. I was asked to make promises for the faction and the don etc. After answering correctly I was invited in and was offered the discord link. 

I then went with my hire rep and he showed me where to process, where to obtain oil and where to sell it. Staying in character the entire time. 

 

PRO: Outstanding RP. Not once did anybody ever break character, this RP was very reminiscent of when I joined my first RP server back in 2021 (shout out Backwoods and the OG Cassanos). I felt like I was joining a crime family. Not ONCE was I made to wait around doing fucking nothing. 

CON: The only con I have is that I wasn't really told anybodies nicknames. This review was conducted during some server fallout, luckily I didn't need anybody's names to continue the RP.

The problem here is you went to the meat market instead of the La Fucina.

IMO all people within a faction should be able to hire with good RP,  shouldn't depend on the location

Very informative and insightful thread, Fox. Thanks for taking your time to do this.

You really need to try GCF. Quite different RP-wise from all those listed.

Interesting takes here, on my end, we will look for areas to improve. Unfortunate you had a bad experience.
