Ajax Thornton

Name: Ajax Thornton

Steam64ID: 76561198336918749
CharacterID: 3652
Date of Incident: 30/11/23

Time of Incident (Server Time): 14:30

Amount your claiming: 544x Cannabis, 1172x Joints

Description of situation: Won a fight against TFK for the items in question, when they were revived they kept spam opening the box together to break it then wouldn't relog to fix it.

Evidence: 

+1

+1 either make it a perk or something you can buy that you just "unlock" if that makes sense (so isn't lost upon arrest)

They cost more to buy and use anyway, just change the price of crafting not the sentence because I have never heard in my life "Was it an M4 or an AK he had?" "He had an AK", "yep fine him more"...

-1

Ehhh, think cop uniform is a bit different to risking like $500,000 on a full ghillie suit

Type of Suggestion?: Server Rule Suggestion

Please explain what the suggestion is about and why you're posting it?: I am not completely sure how this would work so asking for opinions to add to my own. Currently, the ghillie suit is one of the hardest items on the island to make and obtain with it costing 8x ghillie netting and level 85 crafting. The rule as it stands is that if not in gang uniform then there has to be a separate initiation from that player. Make a distinct rule in that ghillie suits would be illegal to wear but the player wearing them would share initiation with the gang they are in to allow them to have some use. 

Solution on how to make this work?: If the player is wearing it they can be arrested but they share initiation with the gang. This wouldn't be a massive problem for cops as they can arrest them on sight to crack down on use and it is so unbelievably hard to get that this wouldn't be rampant at all. They are costing around $500,000 on the civilian market which with currently being absolutely useless due to the initiation making them just redundant and a waste of time in being on the server. Please make them have some use

Pros & Cons?: Possibly cops may feel that sometimes the first one to die was killed out of the blue but I mean paying so much for the item, it has to have some benefit to it.

no reason to have people on the server that never interact with the populace. its a roleplay server

Yeah a roleplay server, they do interact cus they selling stuff to people. Roleplay doesn't mean combat.

Not a bad idea tbh. Maybe even make it as a paid app or something which costs like $50,000 to unlock to add some balance to it.

Crafters are on-board with this idea. +1

Type of Suggestion?: Server Rule Suggestion

Please explain what the suggestion is about and why you're posting it: Make some rules about head-on collisioning boosts at 300km/h. The whole point of boosts is to be a racing mechanic to the game but when cops can just ram you head-on at such high speeds it's stupid. They should have to pull over and set up spikes which forces them to actually use their brain when playing and plan for the routes people are going to take. 

Solution on how to make this work?: Put rules about pitting above 200km/h and no head-on collisions over even like 80km/h

Pros & Cons?: This allows for civilians to actually have a chance with boosts the second cops respond with more than one or two cars. Also creates a sense of roleplay about these boosts. Only con I can think of is that they can't just blow up our cars head on to make it super easy for cops...

Cool upgrade to help the advanced crafters

+1 Positive for cops and civs. Brings something to the server other than combat.

I understand this but they would have to make it a script that makes numbers fair and it could easily by won by any gang if played right. Plus i think combat is a big part of the server and a once a restart thing which you can at most loose a kit at sounds fine as it can create more rp.

Okay so some crafting gang who is just doing their thing either logging or make steel and none of them carry guns as why would they need to get raided by you lot so 6 people just doing their own thing get gunned down and their time wasted.

Type of Suggestion?: Server

Please explain what the suggestion is about and why you're posting it?: (try use an example of what has happened in-game) Removing the full auto 7.62s from the server, these guns make it no fun for anyone and make the major crimes impossible to push within the current PD limitations.

Solution on how to make this work?: Remove full auto 7.62s

Pros & Cons?: Pros less aids for everyone, Cons angry people that use these guns 

This is one of the most pro cop suggestions I have ever seen and just creating divides. Crafters will spend literal months of their time grinding to the level to be able to make these guns and then spend days working to get all the resources. Not even factoring in the fact that they have to have access to a warehouse to even make these which is at minimum around 2.5 mill with the advanced bench. Then the people who are buying them are spending around 40-60k for their loadout. 

If people spend so much time to get something good, then they have worked for it. Just because your old tactics aren't working with the current style of gameplay don't ask for stuff to be removed just reinvent what you are doing. The old trick of send the cadet then the whole force doesn't work anymore. REINVENT...

Will be too messy in practice but theoretically fun. Gangs that want combat go to cartels to fight over them, gangs that don't stick to doing their stuff. Don't force non-combat players into combat, not cool bro.
