similar to this, but there'd be different groups formed within the same gang of 'drillers' with the good shooters being the ones to go out etc which is the opposite of what we want to achieve
All these excuses that it is hard to enforce how about people just respect that the rule is there for the good of the server and people put their egos aside and stick to it? The point is exactly that. It stops you pushing a gang turf unless you fancy your chances. 6v10 for example you can still win if you send your best hitters and catch those 10 off guard. or maybe you see 15 people on turf then a few cars roll out to go somewhere so you strike. You plan it instead of just pushing with all your numbers.
Another plus side of this is that by limiting meetings to 6v6 at neutral locations this would more than likely result in it being the gang seniors who attend. These people SHOULD by definition of being seniors have superior roleplay and be able to see beyond the actual meeting to create/dream up more imaginative scenarios instead of mouthy gang members chipping in and mouthing off which usually leads to one outcome.
It can't apply in the exact same format for the police as they should still be the overwhelming stronger side in any situation given they are the police. This is what adds to the risk for the group of 6 - However, they should have set limits in place for certain scenarios to ensure they are not too overpowered.
Personal opinion but police should be feared more and crime should not be so out in the open and public. It would require a slight change in police mentality and tthe way the police operate in the interest of being fair, but there should not be like 30 cops chasing you and trying to TC you at 130mph that's for sure.

Huge +1Reading some comments here made me chuckle. There's so many positives to this rule yet people are too tunnel-visioned to realize the good it can bring to the server.
You're here to make a story for your character, make an impact on the server, the community and ultimately have fun. How do people make stories for their characters if you're sitting behind a gang with 20 people waiting for something to be initiated by another person? You're gonna roll up to the situation, have nothing to say and pray somebody shoots so you can get involved. Please tell me I'm wrong?
If you're dependent on another person to start something for you because you can't make a story for yourself, you shouldn't be here. This is the mentality across all gangs on the server. There's only a select few people from each gang to actively go out and involve themselves in RP and these are the people that appear on login screens and are known in the community. So many members in gangs however if somebody asked you to name half of the members from the opposing gang, you wouldn't have a clue. You're not gonna get your name out there because you're wearing colors and you took part in a shootout.
The rule of 6 is to incentivize new and existing players to go out and participate in stories that are based around your character, not your gang. With so few people in a party going around with you, you have the opportunity to talk and introduce yourself to the server. You're not in the shadows quietly listening and waiting for the situation to resolve, you're participating.
Having little parties going around the city, brings life everywhere around to the server, not just your turf. Seeing people log on just for disputes and wars because you have the free pass and the opportunity to RDM someone, please get the fuck out.
Everything else has pretty much been covered already. The rule is not there to punish anybody, it's there to incentivize more quality RP. If there wasn't a problem, this topic would have never exist, but as expressed by some of the members above, there clearly is one. If you're here to just to shit on the idea because it doesn't suit you and you have nothing interesting to add to the conversation to try and find the solution, again, find the door and fuck off
My only concern would be the 30 cops chasing or just a never ending wave of officers… if your team of 6 manages to wipe the responding officers there should be a limit to how many back up officers can arrive… I agree police should have more power than gangs and should be feared but a never ending wave of heavily armed officers wouldn’t be any fun
I feel the only reason there's so many armed officers in the first place is the fact theres a million armed idiots in the city shooting whenever someone looks at them funny. The first port of call for a team of 6 should not be to "wipe" the officers but to avoid getting in to a situation where you have to murder police at all, be smart about attacks, avoid standing around when the police are watching over, escape as you hear the sirens. It all links to that other post in suggestions about gang revamps and changing mentality in the city. It wouldn't happen over night thats for sure.
