This thread will showcase the realistic portrayal and ground-up development of a fictional predominantly Hispanic Motorcycle Club from San Fierro, primarily following their construction of an official Los Santos chapter via the hands of the club's Nomad Charter. Roleplay will consist of general 1% MC aspects, including organized crime, religious practices, enforcing club laws and the positive and negative process of politicking with local clubs as a newly authorized charter. All recruitment and relations will occur IC.

The Los Santos Tribune "The Ghost Crew" Haunts Los Santos Nicholas Manicolo - 6th of June 2024 In the dark hours before dawn, a new menace has emerged on the streets of Los Santos. Dubbed "The Ghost Crew" by locals, this elusive car theft ring is making vehicles vanish without a trace, leaving the community rattled and authorities scrambling for answers. Over the past month, a string of car thefts has plagued the city, with residents waking up to find their driveways and garages empty. The mysterious crew, believed to operate under the cover of night, has shown a remarkable ability to evade detection, earning their spectral moniker. "These thieves are incredibly sophisticated." said Detective Maria Alvarez of the Los Santos Police Department. "They strike quickly and leave no evidence behind. It's like the cars just disappear into thin air." A peculiar trend has emerged in the investigation: only specific makes and models are being targeted. While the Los Santos Police Department has identified these preferences, they are withholding the details pending internal approvals. "We understand the public's need for information" Lieutenant Nathan Reynolds stated in a press conference. "However, we must ensure that releasing this list does not compromise our ongoing investigation. Rest assured, we are considering the viability of making it public." Residents are growing increasingly anxious. Michael Polidano, a resident of Vinewood Hills, discovered his Mercedes missing early Tuesday morning. "It’s terrifying" he said. "One day your car is there, and the next it’s gone without a trace. We need answers and we need them quickly." The Los Santos Police Department is urging the community to assist in the investigation. "We need the eyes and ears of Los Santos to help us bring these criminals to justice" Lieutenant Reynolds implored. "If you see anything suspicious, no matter how minor it may seem, report it to us immediately." Local auto shops and security companies are witnessing a surge in business as residents seek to protect their vehicles. "We’ve seen a huge increase in people wanting advanced security systems" said Antonio Torres, owner of Secure Auto Solutions. "Everyone’s on edge and looking for ways to keep their cars safe." Insurance companies are also closely monitoring the situation. "We are aware of the recent spike in vehicle thefts and are advising all policyholders to take extra precautions." said Laura Jenkins, a spokesperson for Atlas Insurance. "Our claims teams are ready to assist affected customers, and we are working with law enforcement to provide any information that might aid in their investigations." As the investigation continues, the Los Santos Police Department is committed to keeping the public informed while balancing the integrity of their efforts to catch the perpetrators. "We are doing everything in our power to solve these crimes." Detective Alvarez assured. "The safety and peace of mind of our community are our top priorities."

Hey everyone. If you know me you probably used some of my old web tools I made years back. One of which was a screenshot archiver for the old forum. I've re-written it, scraped the old forum and also set it up to archive screenshots on this forum too. You can currently search by forum post title, author and also text that appears on the image. https://k-underwood.com/ Sadly lots of images, especially from Discord, are broken. I've tried to filter out as many broken images as I can and also the "Hide dead images" option will hide images that load up broken just for you. Enjoy and let me know if you have any issues or suggestions. Note: feel free to move this if it's in the wrong place. I've had permission off Mmartin to archive screenshots.

For those interested in getting a more thorough look into the car-theft and chop-shop operations within the Valenti Crime Family, you can follow this thread. This thread serves a continuation of this: https://forum.ls-rp.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=763678&p=9803231&hilit=Rip+%26+Crew#p9803231

The LOS SANTOS TIMES' relation with the LSFD has never exactly been the healthiest between agencies and institutions, as far apart as their nature, purpose and duty may be. It takes a few seconds of looking up news articles to realize that the number of outlets claiming and pointing out the BAD APPLES and many negative aspects that have been present in the FIRE DEPARTMENT's structure for decades heavily outweigh anything positive that has ever been reported by the news agency — to no one's surprise, specially when one remembers that it's any news outlet's job to speficially point out the dark side of PUBLIC AGENCIES. Despite the immense and rapid change LOS SANTOS has gone through in the last few decades, being submitted to a complex process of gentrification that altered not only the reality of a FIREFIGHTER and the way the Fire Department works, but also the way it serves the city — this applies to the first responders in red, of course, but also to the ones in blue and the safety hat-heads and all the other public and city employees; everything is much more sensitive and fragile, the act of seeing everything through a third eye has been made necessary and extremely essential if one wishes to maintain their badge — the LOS SANTOS FIRE DEPARTMENT continues to appear on the very front page of the LST every once in a while to be reminded that, no matter how long it's been, a news agency with a grudge will make sure to show its fancy fonts, grammar and text structure to reprimand whoever it doesn't like, whilst also making sure that the entire metropolitan area, as well as a few of the educated men and women of the east and south of LOS SANTOS watch everything. Those firefigthers and paramedics could save as many children and adults as they'd like, one or another's face and dirty - and often illegal - story would end up appearing on an unexpectedly large number of computer or cellphone screens under a title written in black and gothic letters. Without a doubt, the existence of PETTY JOURNALISTS who've got their eyes everywhere is certainly taught in many academies across AMERICA, not only in Los Santos, though part of being "held to a much higher standard" also revolves around mastering the act of being the center of the media's attention. This isn't to say the department is spotless of corrupt individuals, even if that may be what most of those same individuals would like people to think - or think themselves. It's difficult to have any sort of reason when your department has been the center of news stories in the region, or even in the entirety of the west coast, and it takes a lot of courage to say that, maybe, perhaps, at the end of the day, "it isn't as bad as people claim it to be". As long as there's a specific bureau, division or unit responsible for speaking in the name of the FIRE CHIEF, as long as there's a specific bureau, division or unit responsible for speaking to CORRESPONDENTS, GAZETTEERS and PROPAGANDISTS, as long as there's a specific bureau, division or unit responsible for investigating those who are (hopefully) saving lives on a hand and grossly flirting with the idea of infringing department policy on the other, this department will continue to cherish its own image. Even if, eventually, in one way or another, legally or illegally, those same correspondents, gazetteers & propagandists end up finding dirt on someone or something. That's what they were hired for. Whether inspirational or nerve-racking, a news article, most of the time, comes from a scream of help heard from the inside - anonymous reports made by sworn-firefigthers aren't anything new. In fact, whistleblowers exist and have been existing since the beginning of each, any and every industry. Within the context of legal, government agencies, things do not change. If anything, whistleblowers might have an easier time letting their truth out. It's not like a FIRE OFFICER, or even worse, a CFO is going to send someone to shut a fellow firefighter up. Right? In either way, one thing is a fact: LSFD's history is, somewhat, even if only by a percentage, marked by corruption and scandals; and corruption scandals. Restoring the department's reputation has, in a way, been an easy fish to sell - they save people, after all, and are one of the largest fire departments in the US, behind only the brothers in the county and the strangers in the east coast. After all, if corruption was expected to come from anyone, it would, ninety-nine percent of the occasions, be expected to be coming from the POLICE DEPARTMENT — which is also historically (and specially) corrupt — instead of expecting it to come from the firefighters and paramedics who serve our people. Perhaps the department is nothing other than ordinary, but with a much larger structure and relevance as consequence of serving such a broad area - whether the EMTs like it or not, this does come with the consequence of, again, being held to a higher standard. Or perhaps the city of Los Santos is doomed to harbor the most corrupt of individuals. However, no matter how many times the department may find itself victim of thirsty journalists, it truly is such a huge lack of luck to be a firefighter serving the city of entertainment.

good stuff boys /treyvon crooks

Great roleplay from Napoleon, I loved it. Keep it up, I'm definitely following.

You post actually scares me. This issue is underlooked and is I think this is potentially a LSRP killer. If LSRP falls, this may not be the main reason but must be one of the main reasons. I am scared, concerned and worried. EDIT: What I will say does not represent any factions or anybody. But I am told that my friends in those factions share the same thoughts but are hesitating to say it publicly, but I will say it. I disagree with your reasoning of passive police roleplay. Passive police roleplay will only happen after police roleplayers had enough fun of the main stream RP, aka pursuits and shootouts. What is so fun about police? Shootout and pursuits. Now we axed pursuits. Many people will prove me wrong but, tell me why SEB / SWAT is always more than 50% of online LEO playerbase? Just check ts.ls-rp.com:9988 and you'll find the statistics. Somehow, LSRP thought having a pursuit line chasing a car with normal speed for hours is realistic so they axed most PITs, interceptions and boxing. Then they thought well, chasing for long is bad so supervisors will not terminate pursuits if it goes for too long for too tiny reasons. Is it fun? I do not find it fun. I avoid most of the pursuits, really. A shootout is basically a torture for anyone that's not directly firing or SWAT/SEB. A barricaded suspect requires police officers and deputy sheriffs to stand outside guarding and watching the screen and basically staring while SWAT/SEB go inside and roleplay. In worse scenarios, random player will come to you and ask you very repetitive questions or just drive pass it, ruining the immersion and giving you burdens. In terms of the reasoning of Investigative roleplay in shambles, I have a lot to say about it. Let's first talk about how does a Detective win. Based on my experience, I can conclude two ways of detective roleplays. One is script-win and another is collective-win. Script-win is you use the scripts to locate the suspect and apprehend the suspect, without needing the suspects' OOC cooperation. Collective-win is when the suspect roleplays with you, PMs you non-script evidence and leads to their own conviction. What is more demotivating when you write 2,000 words in your investigative report, you do everything perfectly but the suspect CKs, doesn't respond to you, voids the situation and whatsoever? Another topic I want to say is Play-to-Win mentality. If Anti Play-to-Win works, why our PD/SD plays Robber/Cop servers when free? Play-to-win is a good concept but we took it wrong. We are taking Play-to-Win to an extreme where we are basically "Playing to lose". From a PLAYERS' perspective, if the suspect breaks the rule, we /ff. If the suspect non-rp drives, we /ff. If the suspect fails to RP and whatsoever, we /ff. We have unlimited free guns and cars doesn't entitle us to /ff everytime. How are we expecting our people to do passive roleplays and be passionate about passive roleplays when the needs for aggressive and active are not fulfilled?
