Time of Incident (Server Time): 17:50

Amount your claiming: 

192 Mexican Wine 

903 Wine (Also counted as Mexican wine because unprocessed steel is usually compensated as processed steel).

TOTAL: 1095 Mexican Wine x $350 = $383,250

Description of situation:

Server unexpectedly went down in the middle of our gigantic Mexican Wine operation. 

The wine was in the process of being transported to Mexican Wine Processor and some had already been processed.

+1 The economy is apparently the easiest it's been so replacing loadouts shouldn't be much of a problem 

+1 Definitely need more end game stuff for grinders. 

Would be sick if they could add some kind of articulated or huge lorry 

+1 I believe this was already considered and they are working on it's feasibility. 

I understand Daniels point, and in some circumstances I can agree there should be an option for anonymous posting. 

In situations where it is not necessary staff should have the ability to request the poster identifies themselves. 

It was a seize sorry but it went to the impound. 

I get the risk vs reward thing however 75K is just excessive. You would need to do more than 2 runs of moonshine for example to pay that off. I don't think this helps the server's direction towards more illegal runs being done.

You are taking the risk of losing the run and your gear anyway let alone the risk of having to pay 75K in impound fees.

I think I'll just stay in the steel mine thanks

So my 850 truck got wrongly impounded (I won't go into it here). 

I have checked to see how much it would cost me to pull out and I am shocked to see it will cost $75,000!!!!. 

75K seems absurd to me, and I am wondering why it is not capped like the price of insurance is. 

If the fee was capped at 10K, the same as insurance, it would be more likely that the person who in my situation wrongly impounded the vehicle would compensate me or I would just swallow the loss. Now, the person in question is unable to pay such a large amount of compensation and I am left with the bill. In order for me to get my money back I will have to go through the rigmarole of submitting an IA dispute with a senior police officer or worse take the officer who impounded the vehicle to court - both lengthy processes. 

Solution on how to make this work?

Put a limit on impound fees.

Pros & Cons?:

Pros: More likely to get compensation in some scenarios. 

Cons: Gov makes less money from impound fees. 

Pablo is always there to pick me up when I fall out of cars

+1 PLEASE ADD LIGHTS TO WAREHOUSES

Not sure if this is on purpose, if it is I can't see why, but currently there are no gas stations at airports. 

At some of the major airports there should definitely be a place to get fuel, especially since the C130 cannot land on roads. 

Also, why is there no air garage / air shop in Kileen, seems like a waste of a huge airport in an ideal location for Wine.

Solution on how to make this work?

Add gas stations to airports and an air shop/garage to Kileen.

Pros & Cons?:

Can't really think of any cons

Problem with this is when you start stacking effects you get people able to instantly craft or process. The intended effect of buff items is to buff not be over powered. Thank you for the suggestion

I think he means to extend the timer, not to stack the buffs. 

For example instead of eating one burger every 2 minutes you eat 5 to give you the buffs for 10 minutes. 

+1 rep I think it is a good idea

+1

I have mixed feelings on this one to be honest. 

I accept that I and many others have made a fuck load of money off of contracts, especially when they were at over 150%, but I do also agree that those who benefited most are those who are able to play the most. 

I believe that the reward for illegal activities should be much greater as they carry a lot of risk, especially with all the PvP people looking for situations to get themselves in. So I am happy people are now looking to risk doing illegal stuff, and I am also glad that those that want to PvP have more opportunity to rob runs. 

I like the idea of having a loyalty system for both legal and illegal, and maybe even get a leaderboard going to encourage competition?

My suggestion however, would be a little bit more complicated but I feel it would be fairer. I suggest instead of having the same list of contracts for everyone, we have client side contracts that are different for everyone and we only have 3 at a time to choose from. 3 Tiers - Short, Medium, and Long.  For instance, you could have the choice of either a 2K Iron, 4K Steel or 1.5K Tobacco (Because it is a longer run and heavier obviously). Then, in order to get new contracts, you would either need to sign one or pay Port Staff to re-roll the contracts. You could also incorporate a loyalty system and leaderboard into this too. 

I believe this would lead to a greater variety of runs being completed, and less communal moaning and shooting up of the export :D. Because there is also an element of luck here, I believe you could also buff the rates back up without breaking the economy. 

As it stands, I am pretty happy continuing doing legal contracts but I do believe we need to eliminate the less than 100% contracts and buff them so 140%+ contracts are more commonplace again.

Date of Incident: 04/04/24

Time of Incident (Server Time): 03:10

Amount your claiming: $101,500 (2900 steel at 135% contract price ($35 per)) 2050 Unprocessed on the floor and 850 processed in truck (Not in clip).  

Description of situation: 

Hacker situation the other night - I was in the middle of processing a load of steel when we was all TP'd to prison. 

I had a 850 slot truck full of unprocessed steel outside the warehouse and another 2050 on the floor which I was processing alternating between floor steel and storage steel in order to fit it all into the storage. 

Because I was waiting for the contracts to refresh I left the processed steel in the truck which I don't have a clip of because I hadn't gone out to the truck for longer than the maximum 10 minutes clip I could take following the prison TP. 

I have cut the clip down so you can see the last time I opened the box on the floor before the TP. 

As mentioned above, I am claiming for the 2050 lost unprocessed steel and 850 processed steel. I had a 4K 135% steel contract meaning each steel would have been sold for $35, totaling $101,500.
