I agree with the consensus but I think it should be much more than just playing illegal characters. Mostly because anybody can make an illegal character, anybody can throw up a thread, garner some support and use it as a justification. There should be mountains of experience, seasoning and understanding of the bracket other than "I've had this character, and that character." I don't want to say members are role models because they're definitely not but they should definitely lead by example. Not only their knowledge and understanding of the genre, but their roleplay should also stand out from the horde. I don't want to see legal roleplayers in faction management. I don't want to see inexperienced illegal roleplayers in faction management. Everyone should be tried and proven with successful characters or factions behind them, making it a case of "we must practice what we preach." If it becomes institutionalized by legal roleplayers or roleplayers because they're "modders" or "staff" then the house of cards falls apart and everyone calls it quits. The selling point of this server is its promise to the illegal community and without that, most of us lose interest. So far we've seen very little, heard very little and know very little. We know that there's pre-launch supplier applications but other than that, we're in the dark for the most part. More communication should be a priority considering we're 23 days out and even the turnaround times for them aren't looking great. We should be doing all we can to make sure factions hit the ground running so that it helps their longevity long after launch. Businesses, for one. Otherwise we'll all be roleplaying in public parks and alleyways. Another thing to consider is that we'll all most likely be vying for the same territory so this disorganization will cause a mass amount of factions who are gunning for the same spot to bump heads almost instantly. I've been a little disappointed in the lead-up to launch in terms of communication and being clued in. Not in terms of management or development who are extremely busy and focused on the actual activation of the server but to those who have been entrusted with the functionality of the server itself after launch. As someone who's going to be leading one of the server's biggest factions and one of the longest standing ones, I feel that we're left somewhat in the lurch by multiple departments who should already have all of this done by now.

faction management needs to consist of people who actually play illegal characters and actively roleplay in the scene

Mine is slang for bullshit. Anyone who's seen band of brothers probably saw Captain Sobel telling one of his guys this.

hello! rip capo where my wraps???

You just download the PSD and then open the PSD in Photoshop. Should load right up.

This is me, in need of a hair cut:

Text based, thank God haha in my opinion, voice RolePlay is sooooo cringe , and I simply can’t take any of the scenes seriously 😂

You make some good points, though I still disagree. It's against the rules for criminal RPers to use voice chat, and imo it should be, but it should also be the same for LEO RPers. Yes, the leaders of LEO factions say that they heavily moderate VOIP, but all I've seen is the opposite in my several years of playing, so I'm sure you can understand my scepticism. I've observed LEO RPers actively calling for backup while literally standing in the middle of the street shooting at somebody, which shouldn't be considered cool in my opinion, I was even in a situation some time ago where an officer that was shot down continued calling for backup even after he was death screened, the only reason I found out that he was doing so was because he recorded it and reported me for whatever reason, which is why I'm sceptical when I'm told that VOIP is heavily moderated. It's easy to say that it's heavily moderated, but it's hard to really prove that. Police aren't supermen, even if they have 'gadgets' at their disposal. If you're actively being fired at by multiple thugs, you're likely gonna be in a state of panic, I doubt you'd be able to reach for your radio and calmly broadcast your location all while shooting back and reversing your car in the process, your aim is gonna be staying alive and not catching a bullet to the forehead.
