SAMP is super Niche amongst english speaking gamers & the roleplay scene is pretty niche too. Combining these two you're left with a community that has very limited growth potential. On top of that, being a fairly hardcore roleplay server (By todays standards atleast) it's very difficult for new players to adjust especially when there's a plethora of RP servers that don't encourage a realistic approach but rather a "Fun" & "Quirky" approach of "Roleplay whatever you want!". But, I do think there's a few USP's that SAMP & LSRP has that need to be capitalised on. 1) Easy accessibility. GTA SA is so easy to crack, it's basically free & virtually any computer nowadays can run SAMP at a more than stable frame rate, something that cannot be said for other roleplay games such as FIVEM, RAGE, G-Mod, ARMA etc. This is one of the only RP games that pretty much ANYBODY can run on ANY System and it's actually what made me play this back in 2015 for the first time, I had a piece of shit laptop and I always had a fascination for RP games but I couldn't run any of them, today with a high-end PC I still choose to play LSRP over any other RPing game and I think that this can be a massive selling point for the server. 2) The RP scene: The scene is growing, something I never would have thought would happen! Back in 2016/2017 I never thought that RP on GTA had even a chance of blowing because of how fucking nerdy it really is. But here we are, 2024 and GTA RP is on a steady incline, everyone wants to play it & there's massive communities built around RP, unfortunately it's all on GTA V, but as mentioned above, the accessibility to playing a modded GTA V server is limited to those with the correct hardware. IF there was ever a time for LSRP to swoop in, it'd definitely be NOW. 3) The Past: Someone has already mentioned this and I really think that someone needs to put on their big boy pants and fucking do it already. There's over 100,000 unique members with LSRP accounts, get that fucking email list and send out emails every update! Let people know that LSRP is back! I'm sure there's still thousands of people out there who just don't know that LSRP has made a comeback! This community is more than salvageable, there just needs to be an action plan put into place. We're struggling to maintain 200 players now and honestly at this rate by February next year we may struggle to keep the population above 100, It'd be a massive shame to see the community go out like that (Again) so I really do hope that steps will be taken in the right direction... And the FINAL point, the LSRP admins clearly are trying SOMETHING, they've recently created a "content creator" programme for players to submit content to their instagram in an effort to help promote the server, it's up to us to also help out in trying to uphold the PB not just the admins, they have lives just as much as we do, if we can all come together (lol) maybe we can make it happen.3 points

Luca Antonelli 60 Years Old Luca Antonelli, 60, was a well-known man from Revere, Massachusetts. After spending over five years working for G&J Towing, he unexpectedly fled to Los Santos without explanation. His sudden disappearance left the community puzzled, and rumors began to circulate—some thought it was due to personal issues, while others speculated about family matters. Now living quietly in Los Santos, Luca keeps a low profile, though the mystery surrounding his departure still lingers. Taxi Identification Card2 points

Carmine Torciano born in Saugus, Massachusetts, to a family of Italian immigrants. Around the age of 25, Carmine became a property manager for Francis “Cadillac Frank” Salemme, a notorious figure in the organized crime scene. This type of work gave Carmine the connections he needed in the North Shore, as well as access to the area’s underground network of power players. Carmine often found himself at Wonderland Greyhound Park in Revere as a form of networking with local business men, as well as the degenerate gamblers and loansharks. This is where Carmine was able to meet an individual by the name of Luca Antonelli, a well known figure who controlled the taxi rackets in Lynn and Salem. Luca was extremely charismatic individual with a high level of ambition that kept him moving forward. Carmine found himself in these traits and the two ultimately became close friends. The two quickly recognized a lucrative opportunity: they began loansharking at the greyhound park, leveraging a fleet of taxis that provided direct shuttles to the park, easing traffic for their loaning operation. The two were able to successfully continue this operation up until the Park’s closure in 2009. The shutdown was a devastating blow, as it obliterated their main source of income. Ontop of the pressure of societal changes, technology was a surprise opposition for Luca as well. With the rise of Uber and other ride-sharing services, the taxi racket that had became their lifeline faced unprecedented competition. The duo found themselves at a loss. In a form of panic, they began to look at the developments in the area and discovered a opportunity on the resources construction would provide. Scraping up the funds together. The duo started to pay off insiders at the local unions to get tips on various metals such as copper, iron, and even equipment to steal. Eventually the duo found themselves in over their heads with the development of the Encore Casino in Everett. Given the project was worth a staggering three billion, Luca and Carmine saw potential, but they did not outweighed the risk. During the planning phase the head of the steelworkers union was charged for theft and racketeering in 2018. In a panic, thinking the union lead would give the theft ring up, they fled to a new city on the West Coast. Immediately establishing their knowledge and forming Westmont Transportation Company. The following will follow the lives of Carmine and Luca as they readjust.1 point
