Revive the crim life!!!

[Samuel Shire]

Bring back the days of robbing kore with a rook but hiding it behind the counter and saying it’s an item scanner and you are doing a stock take.


But Tbf in crims defence there are so many officers that unless you have a 25 page business plan signed off by a judge they won’t accept avenues of roleplay other than the fact you broke into a store…

sometimes with this it gets to a point of, we turn up to a robbery, the people say hello sorry we are just doing some work and accidently set of an alarm, so you let them go, but when it gets to store number 5 and the same reason its kinda like okay this excuse has ran its course

i mean shooting someone for some petty reason then kidnapping someone else in that family then getting mad because all the head of the family wants is an apology before selling coolant again but the one who needs to say sorry refuses to do so but lets the rest of the server suffer for it, is less of someone gatekeeping it its more of why arent other groups puting pressure on that one group to go and say sorry to get it flowing again, instead all i get is waaaa just sell me some this is BS, and ill drop hints like well if X just said sorry then it will allll flow again but its like nobody wants to RP and just wants to get the coolant

Even before that it was bad tbh mate, about a year ago we made documents requesting coolant under the guise of mirror park motors and other affiliated businesses and that RP wasn't really entertained either lol

Don't make sense to hold it back on the entire server though but heyo you can hold it back on the group that threatened you. Especially considering its a fucking warehouse begging for an apology which makes absolute sense, If someone threatens jeff bezos i reckon he should shutdown amazon

Crim Life is 100% dying on RPUK, this is one of the reasons.

Listen to the reaction, instead of carrying on the RP and "actually" RP'ing as gangsters, chasing him down, shooting him calling him a twat for trying to escape like a lil weasel, no. Straight away you hear.. "get that on bodycam" and the shock and horror from the rest on the radio seeing someone do a tiny jump like they have just shot off mount chilliad.

Not even 5 seconds after going to type in OOC

So in your eyes, you want RP to stem from people breaking rules?

He is saying people looking to report to much instead of sometimes letting it go when its something small that dont affect the outcome to much (thats what i think he meant)

I would agree with newer players but this individual was a veteran, this situation they didn't want to face the consequences of bad positioning so they broke a rule, a minor one but a rule regardless, to escape. People should know better, by good RP and situations that may involve conflict and still following the rules.

This really isn’t the place for an argument over a report but if someone breaks a rule… it gets reported. Cant make fun of of people for reporting rule breaks…

What would kill the server is if people broke rules daily because others where too scared of getting bullied to report it…

why are you trying to spin this into some sort of victim attack? no one is being made fun of, no one is arguing and no one is being bullied.

The main issue I see here is people are complaining the gang scene is dying out but are quick to report over little things which in turn gets an active gang member banned and therefore goes against everything they are advocating for.

Instead of carrying on in RP, reacting to new scenarios or situations, the first thought is to "bodycam it" and for everyone to go back to base so someone can quickly write a report up.

I agree with that crims should have more content. As a police main I wouldn't mind trying to catch crims while they are doing some different kind of illegal activities. The only thing I don't appreciate is the images without proper context and twisted to fit your views.

Firstly the main picture. Yes a lot of police showed up to that but in the next few minutes a lot of them were de-assigned and only a handful of officers were left on the scene.

I don't think its nerfing but more of a balance, Crims always are for nerfing themselves when it comes to Markys, Smgs, Shotguns but why feds can never see a little change to see what it does.

Today there was a combined 58 feds/G6 in a 200 pop server, Something needs to change or its going to be feds cuffing other feds soon.

Again you are missing any sort of context. About half of them were around as there was a massive high risk raid that was planned so half of these callsigns were dealing with one certain OCG while others were dealing with the rest of the city. These numbers are rare. You only get them for big operations/raids and are definitely not a daily thing. Usually you get around 20 people on as police from 20:00-23:00 and maybe a handful of G6.

It's rather clear you don't really know what is happening but that is fine. Cooling Liquid is rare but very much available! Just because you ain't getting it, might just mean the that people dont want you to, both the origins and whoever's got it Check the vending machines!

But naturally its in the mind of the few to sidetrack everything because nobody does their bidding anymore.


@G.Mendes - It is something we are looking into and are well aware of. There are things spoken about in the backend to maybe have a look at but that's for its time.
I do however suggest that if you do want more to be done, we are very much dependent on ideas coming from the outside. We don't have all the answers ourself.
I don't think capping scenarios is the one and only solution, so if you want contribute to making the illegal side / civilian side more enjoyable. Think of other things as well and post up another suggestion. It does help the PL, D. Leads and Developers make the right call.

That being said *click*

EDIT;
Will move into Accepted as its a WIP.

My foreignness have caused confusion; Moving to accepted as improving the criminal experience as a whole is a work in progress

So in your eyes, you want RP to stem from people breaking rules?

This is a bit of straw man's argument.

There is nothing stopping them from continuing to act as gang members, chase him or her down and beat the shit out of them, and then later if they are still considering a report or liaison or whatever to do it then.

This is a pretty obvious rulebreak sure, but that isn't always the case, players shouldn't really be altering the course of roleplay because they believe something was a rule break, and it shouldn't matter who the person is that has broken the rule, because new player or not it shouldn't affect the roleplay.

Just because a potential rulebreak (because yes, it's still a potential one until staff have given a verdict) has taken place doesn't mean all RP has to immediately stop and the situation can just die out.

If it was a police pursuit, maybe it would be realistic for the police to say, well this is to dangerous and in the interest of everyone's safety we aren't going to continue this pursuit, but angry gang members would arguably do the opposite, keep the pressure on and force them to make a stupid mistake.
