Gambling should be made illegal. No more casino's and no poker table furniture for players to place at their house (no donators either). Instead leave gambling as a racket to illegal factions. LS-RP's gambling scene was an abomination. Players ran (if they were not bunnyhopping) to a dealer in a casino, paid them, then said 'hit' or 'stick' and usually bunnyhopped their way out again. Many of us thought things would improve with the release of the poker system. We thought wrong. Most of the poker games either had little to no roleplay at all. Soon players started exploiting the poker script. It was a way for players to sell their LS-RP money for real life funds without getting flagged. Then came a time poker could only be played at casino's, thinking it would improve roleplay and those looking to abuse the poker script to sell their virtual money for real life funds could no longer do it in private. However roleplay did not improve. LS-RP has one of the best illegal faction scenes (that is a fact). Making gambling illegal could be a huge win for the illegal roleplay scene. In addition to the drugs/weapons scheme, illegal factions should be able to qualify for gambling as a scheme. With a simple script, access to poker tables (and perhaps scripted blackjack and/or baccarat in a future update) is given to faction leaders who now have the ability to place the furniture in their businesses. Factions can be held accountable for players who abuse/exploit the system (as long as a faction is aware of what is going on of course). In addition factions can be held accountable for the quality of roleplay at their poker games. Most poker players on LS-RP are mallrats (with all due respect). Making gambling illegal forces them to interact with illegal roleplayers. Perhaps they can learn a thing or two about actual roleplay. Backroom poker games? LSPD/SD raiding those games? Stick ups? Amazing. Pros of making gambling illegal: creates additional roleplay opportunities for the illegal scene; improves the quality of roleplay which involves gambling; factions are now 'product owners' and can be held accountable for players abusing/exploiting. Cons of making gambling illegal: could potentially result in a loss of a small playerbase who only play LS-RP for /poker (good riddance I say); legal characters such as LEO risk more than illegal characters (e.g. getting suspended for getting caught at illegal poker games).

I decided to start an LSRP YouTube channel! I'm going to be covering some interesting topics about LSRP, such as fun facts, how to's, ask an admin etc. It won't be a channel which covers roleplay, but rather LSRP information. I have setup my first video to premier today in just under an hour, come along and watch at the same time as others and see if the channel is something that you think you'll be interested in. Looking forward to this! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFvmI3SAD_0&ab_channel=ROZELSRP

Allowing mixing of two different skin tones too should be a thing

The Los Santos Police Department ― “To Protect and to Serve” "It is the mission of the Los Santos Police Department to safeguard the lives and property of the people we serve, to reduce the incidence and fear of crime, and to enhance public safety while working with the diverse communities to improve their quality of life. Our mandate is to do so with honor and integrity, while at all times conducting ourselves with the highest ethical standards to maintain public confidence. The motto, "To Protect and To Serve," states the essential purpose of the Los Santos Police Department. The Department protects the right of all persons within its jurisdiction to be free from criminal attack, to be secure in their possessions, and to live in peace. The Department serves the people of Los Santos by performing the law enforcement function in a professional manner, and it is to these people that the Department is ultimately responsible." — Chief of Police Giselle Hardinger Official Site of the Los Santos Police Department Employment Opportunities Report A Crime The Los Santos Police Department provides law enforcement services to the City of Los Santos and is responsible for protecting and serving its citizens. The Los Santos Police Department is directed by a Chief of Police, who is appointed to the office by the Mayor of San Andreas. The history of the Los Santos Police Department can be traced directly to Spanish colonial authorities embedded in the missions of the Los Santos countryside in the early 1600s. Needing protection from native raids and frontier bandits, a contingent of Spanish colonial soldiers were hired to guard the compounds of the city. After San Andreas declared independence as the San Andreas Republic during the Mexican-American War, the Republic voluntarily petitioned for annexation into the United States after the war. After growth on the American frontier and continued western expansion, during the 1840s the first formal policing agencies were established formally subsumed under the San Andreas State Militia, the Los Santos Rangers. This frontier service was little more than a night watch service as compared to modernized forces following Peel's doctrines. The department's formal history began in the mid 1870s with the establishment of the City Marshal's Office. This uniformed service was the first municipal civil service within the city of Los Santos. Fifteen police chiefs served from 1879 to 1889, albeit it wasn't until Jim R. Door was police chief for 15 years that a consistency was developed. The department developed into the municipal Los Santos Police Department in the early 20th century. In 1910, the department was one of the first departments in the world to grant policing powers to a female officer. In 1918, the department granted full powers to the first African-American female officer. During World War 1, the force quickly became involved in federal offenses and was seen as a home guard to prosecute saboteurs and other fifth columnists. This persisted for most of the early 20th century, where the "dragnet" policing system was developed with formal beats and patrols. Anti-riot and metropolitan squads first began development here, with squads such as the "Red Squad," an anti-communist policing unit. By the time of World War 2, the department had been through several chiefs and had several issues with bad conduct. With the reformist mayor Bowyer Street in charge of the city, he forced dozen of corrupt commissioners out and brought in a new chief, John D. Halmann. Halmann modernized the force in his brief 2 year tenure, resigning after his refusal to use the force as a strikebreaker unit. Chief Edward Sadler took control during 1941, wherein the force has heavily depleted by the draft. The formal twelve-week training period was replaced by a shortened six week period. During 1944, the Zoot Suit Riots of Los Santos began, resulting in large-scale rioting between servicemen and Latino immigrants. Retired Marine General William Baxter took control in 1951 and had the longest tenure of any Los Santos Chief, serving from 1951 to 1966, only dying of heart trouble. This is when the motto "To Protect and to Serve" was introduced. The 1964 Crenshaw Race Riots were a notable event for the department. Crime rates steadily increased. The department quickly adjusted, greatly increasing recruiting efforts, and bringing crime rates to a somewhat manageable level. As the department grew, criminals became more clever, becoming more secretive, conniving, and illusive. In response to this, various specialized divisions began to emerge, where officers with specific skill sets would be deployed. By the 1970s the department had a full range of different divisions, from field investigation to public liaison, to firearms licensing. The fairly recent invention of the helicopter allowed the department to purchase a full fleet of aviation vehicles, to provide eyes in the sky. The department's SWAT team began development during this period due to shootouts with domestic terrorist groups such as the SLA. By the 1990's the Los Santos Police Department was among the best in the United States. They had become world renown for their ability to efficiently protect and serve the city of Los Santos. All of this was put to the test during the Los Santos riots of 1992. The public was profusely outraged after a hung jury on a trial, culminating in widescale civil unrest not seen since the Crenshaw Riots of 1964. The department was not able to contain the unrest and the National Guard was called in. Although the department was forced to call in the guard, they still showed extreme discipline and organization during a time of high stress and confusion. To date, the Los Santos Police Department has some of the most specialized divisions throughout the country, including the elite Metropolitan Division that houses D Platoon, affectionately known as S.W.A.T. The department has reputable police detectives assigned to particular functions such as gang enforcement, organized crime, and surveillance. Organized under four Bureaus, the Los Santos Police Department provides necessary law enforcement services for all living persons of the City of Los Santos regardless of age, color, national origin, citizenship status, physical or mental disability.

It's not being reluctant, it's knowing what is needed for launch. Right now the main priority is to make the server playable, if we start adding other ways into making a character it means things will be delayed and ultimately won't be playable on the date set. Once the server launch is over and done with and a few weeks down the line to flatten any bugs that might occur, the development team will start adding to the server and start listening to suggestions. Right now everyone can make a character that looks different from the rest, so it's not exactly a urgent priority.

I'd argue that having the character creator fleshed out and working well is very important. For many people this is the first impression given of what LSRP will be when it releases, since this is the first time people have been able to really interact with the script in any meaningful way. My first impression was not great, seeing as how the sliders are bad to control at best. Not to mention the missing features regarding skin tone mixing and other things brought up in the thread. Mixing skin tones is a big part of getting your character to look right, and some people put hours into making their characters look just the way they want. So, I would say this is an urgent priority, unless there will be some way to change our character's facial features after launch.

Just some digital drawings. Some are somewhat serious, some are fucked.

I think currently GTAW finds itself in the shoes LSRP were once in. By that I mean that they have a monopoly over the genre simply because there is no alternative, similarly to our community on SA:MP. Players stuck around because there was nowhere else to go. On GTAW what you've got is a server and community tailored around legal roleplayers, ran by legal roleplayers and heavily influenced by legal roleplayers. One sticking point that comes up time and time again is their IFM's lack of engagement, transparency and knowledge and this is the driving force behind the bulk of our roleplayers leaving their server. Now, a lot of people use this a basis to promote their roleplay but the fact of the matter is that it's the truth, their lack of regard for their illegal community is what will offer LSRP a way in. Over the course of the last few months it's been more evident than ever and their management's obliviousness to the fact is what adds insult to injury. For this server to hit the ground running what you have to do is capitalize on the shortcomings of the aforementioned server and strike while the iron's hot. Transparency will be a key factor in attracting these players. Deliverance will be what keeps them and the expectations and promises need to be fulfilled in order for this to come to fruition at all. Illegal roleplay shouldn't be prioritized by any means but it should be treated with the same amount of respect as legal roleplay and given the same opportunity of prosperity. Illegal roleplay has always been the foundation of LSRP but what made LSRP so consistent was its honesty, its openness and its lucidity. Transparency was always there one way or another. One look at their faction's forum and you realize that their faction management team are driving people into LSRP's arms and for years it's gone unnoticed and unaddressed because their has been no alternative. You can forget about servers like LCRP making a wave because they're not battled tested like LSRP is and don't have the following LSRP do, coupled with the fact that their management are as corrupt as the day is long. All these make-shift beliefs and idealisms are used to lure people in but it's nothing more than a false pretense and a power grab. In other words, in certain communities if you don't agree with somebody's modus operandi, they will find a way to ban you, silence you or misinterpret you. On LSRP I believe that the number one priority should be to put the power in the player's hands. For this to overtake its competitors and scratch the surface it's got to recognize the flaws of communities that don't work. LSRP is genuinely the last hope for those interested in illegal roleplay. We need to do as much as we can to emphasize that and promote the fact that the community and management are receptive to that or we're back to square one. It's in all of our interests if we're on the same wave length. All old community politics should be disregarded and the slate should be wiped clean. This will only work if we're all on the same page. Make LSRP great again.

If you've lost access to an account you've had in the past, we aren't able to help you. You can try resetting your password, or making a new account. See ya IG soon, - Martin

Hey, Today everyone got access to the character editor, and after trying it I feel like the user experience leaves a lot of space for improvement, for example: Selecting heritage is very hard, the popup menu feels clunky and the fact that there is no displayed parent ID, you have to manually count them and hope you get it right. Would be nice to have the parent IDs displayed Eyebrow and Hair color are tied together, they should be separate to allow people to have different colored eyebrows and hair. The sliders on the face attributes are a bit hard to use and they jump in increments of 0.1. The GTAV customization allows for values between -1.0 and 1.0, so it would be nice if we had like a small input box where we could manually input these values, like 0.64, etc. This is what I could think of about the character creation system, what do you guys think about it?

good luck with this

Oo yes also if you want hints/tips on video or audio editing then hmu. I use Audacity and Premiere Pro.

Pretty good idea, could start that sort of thing monthly and if it works well, change to weekly 😁

Best of luck, looking forward to watch ur vids.

Interesting. Good luck mate.

Hah, I was thinking of making weekly/monthly covers of the most coveted events of both sides of the board - though that needs some intense dedication and constant scourging. good luck nonetheless ✌️

Good luck with this! 😄

have fun with this

Good luck with this channel! It's interesting for me to hear some interesting facts about this server!

Pretty cool idea. You should definitely work on the way you edited the video or the way you recorded the sound; something was off. As for the entire tutorial idea; I'm not sure it's necessary, but if it helps people then great.

We stan this, good luck and if you want a guest speaker about Gov / news / generic legal RP I can join in de fun. Subbed mainly for the sexy accent tho.

Good luck with this, you did a pretty rational introduction with what you want to do, but one thing that should be frequent is not to rush when talking like you're marathoning to finish your sentence. I guess that comes with experience. Best of luck!

Getting closer to the premiere!

Due to the sheer lack of options and the Circus Strongman vibes from some of the moustaches; I would recommend this. https://www.gta5-mods.com/player/more-vanilla-like-beard-overlays-for-mp-male

I’ll forward this to our team who works on the Penal Code and laws. Thank you for the suggestion. Personally, I believe gambling should be legal for few establishments that are licensed and proven to have quality roleplay, and anything outside of that considered illegal.

I'm on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFvmI3SAD_0

Good luck mate!

It's an IC issue. Everyone can literally buy pokerstars chipset online or some random poker set in a local store. The real poker games among the criminal roleplayers happened quite often, it was a mix of almost every mob sending their men to play in set places. As far as civilians wanted to play, they did their own thing, the factions ran their own joints. I see the point, making the games ran by facs so the average joe could get in debt and all, but having script restrictions is a bad way to go.

really cool

My faction's real life counterpart dips its fingers into illegal gambling and things of that nature in real life California, it's something we're planning to replicate and I believe other criminal factions will also try to get involved in things like illegal gambling, it being ICly illegal on the server would be very beneficial for the illegal scene in my opinion.

If you click on the slider then use left and right arrows it's way more accurate. That's how it is intended to use anyway, says right there if you read.

A fan of the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich One for the Money Two for the Dough Three to Get Deadly Four to Score High Five Hot Six Seven Up Hard Eight There's 28 in the entire series so I'm slowly making my way through

Amazing read. The movie wasn't a let down either. 2021 The Kite Runner (Khaled Hosseini) A Thousand Splendid Suns (Khaled Hosseini) And The Mountains Echoed (Khaled Hosseini) Normal People (Sally Rooney) 12 Rules for Life (Jordan B. Peterson) Where the Crawdads sing (Delia Owens) This is going to hurt (Adam Kay) 2022 (currently reading) Violets Bent Backwards Over The Grass (Lana Del Rey) The Bell Jar (Sylvia Plath) Zodiac: The Shocking True Story of the Hunt for the Nation's Most Elusive Serial Killer (Robert Graysmith) I'd welcome some recommendations to read this year.

Thank u, I like your gif minus the celery 🤮

i don't know why mmartin is so reluctant to add skin mixing and more customizable options like ped skins. like if you've watched his stream he keeps saying there's more than enough variation already but if you've played gta 5 rp for longer than an hour you'll know that isnt the case at all for example the asian tones are either green or homer simpson yellow. they look awful. the ability to mix is needed + not having parent names in the UI sucks cuz people generally make their character from a select few which look good

well.. if that's how you say it 🤷‍♂️ I hope it gets added

Thumbs up for nickname

You won't be arresting me. I'll be running a legitimate business!

Thumbs up for vice city pfo

Getting on the character customization server reminded me of how much I hate GTAV's version of it. Any word on when/if we're gonna get ped skins? All the hairstyles look like complete ass and I don't want to regress to spamming /ame's so I can properly RP a fat character.

Sexy

i love your avatar

Thumb up for you

Regarding scripted stock, I'd like for it to be more open simply. For example players should be able to make their own food/drink menus with their own names and it should not be limited/divided between certain businesses such as bars, nightclubs, strip clubs etc. Giving freedom to players to sell what they generally want is the way to go to create diversity. I'd like to see commands like /selldrink or /sellfood but not only for businesses. The commands could be tied to companies though, but I'd like to see it used for outside bbq's and events as well. It should be rather easy to have gatherings and could create more jobs. Jobs: Food Caterers, Exterior/Party Bartenders (Alcohol Serving Certificates Required outside bar use) Be able to stock food within a van for BBQ's/Caterers, allow them to bring food/drink in boxes which then grants perms to /selldrink and /sellfood within a certain distance. You'd be able to also sell these items without a box but only a limited amount within your personal inventory or even house inventory. Different methods of purchasing goods. - Small grocery stores, sells in smaller quantities and is more expensive per 1 item. (Typically for general house parties or small time events, house food items, general public etc. ) - National Food Stores for businesses/companies only, sells larger quantities and is cheaper per 1 item in bulk. ( May benefit catering businesses, bonuses of being apart of business/company for more profit value. ) This is all just an idea but is realistic regarding sales and food items, but something like this should be put in.

It completely invalidates it because the supposed summary was inaccurate. You can't summarize something that's not even one of the points brought up and the quote proves that. That's putting two and two together and getting five. Legal roleplay is just as important as illegal roleplay. None should be prioritized but neither one should be neglected or given precedence. There must be an equal balance. But to synopsize the argument: I'm not suggesting that LSRP should deviate from its system, what I'm suggestion is that it takes advantage of known issues in its own and other communities and corrects it. A lot what has people crossing its fingers for LSRP is problems that were on LSRP but weren't as bad. If you can rectify the problems and be receptive to constructive criticism without being sensitive to it then that's a step in the right direction. A lot of the time constructive criticism is perceived as discrediting when in reality all it is is a suggestion in the interest of bettering something. A lot of it has to do with miscomprehension as well. Instead of saying, "the server has so many problems," I'm saying "the server could be better if..." At the end of the day what I'm trying to do is bring forward an opinion that has the potential to better the server. Again, it's an opinion but it's one I feel is shared by the wider community. 1. People with no experience in a genre shouldn't be handling reports that require experience in said genre. 2. People with no experience in a category or minimal experience in a category shouldn't be making decisions based on "rules" alone. They need to be able to put themselves in a character's shoes. 3. In terms of transparency I feel that players should be clued in on the decisions that either negatively or positively effect their characters or accounts. These "discussions" sometimes remain hidden and secluded and I've witnessed my fair share of hidden agendas impacting decisions. It cancels out the bias claims that are always associated to subgroups and gives players clarity. 4. Be consistent and forthright. If the community plays on this "case by case" or an arbitrary system then it opens it up to claims of double standard. Don't enforce a standard at your discretion. It must be on-size-fits-all. 5. Be engaging and ingenuous with the community. "Verified discussions" was a step in the right direction but after the departure of the administration that implemented it it was neglected and the public were given very few answers. A system like that should be implemented universally. 6. Put more power in the community's hands. In most communities discussions and decisions are open and closed. Meaning that any administrator or support member can close threads based on their discretion. In other words, if they don't like or agree with it then it's not worth the time of day. Stop this and let them play out. 7. Don't confuse "heavy" roleplay with hyperrealism. On other servers your faction is given virtually zero chance of existence if it doesn't go in line with Southern California. In a nutshell, if you're not an Armenian, Russian, skinhead or gang banger then you're held to an outrageous standard. Let players do what they want as long as their concept treats San Andreas like Southern California. All this "they wouldn't be here" shit is nothing more than micromanagement. If their concept isn't too far fetched and outside the lines of realism then leave them be. Who gives a fuck if there's three Italian crime families and a Serbian faction? 8. Put more investigative powers in the PD and SD's hands. Good criminal roleplay means good law enforcement roleplay. They bounce off of each other. 9. Make people value their characters. Enforce a CK rule if they put their lives at risk. 10. Stop with the excessive amount of OOC prison time unless it's murder. Maybe even repeat robberies to try and crack down on chain robberies. People will just name change and it ruins longevity and continuation and also investigations. 11. Give players breathing space. Less micromanagement and bureaucracy. If we have a business and change characters, let us keep our move our businesses without stupid levels of scrutiny. We shouldn't have to account for every little thing our characters do down to the color of its socks. 12. Don't lower the standard because "they're all we've got." There's always ways around work load, most just don't want to spread it around. I wasn't planning on writing this much so that "synopsis" I had planned is out the window 😂 But this has been on the back of my mind for months. And for the record, as a former member of staff, very little in the aforementioned "staff meetings" ever came to fruition. Most of what was said or brought forward was wrote down like something was being done but very rarely was. It was always put in the rear-view. But a fresh start will change that, I hope. Again, it's food for thought and was brought forward constructively. At the end of the day it's going to be a collective effort. Why not start prior to launch?
