Trentino hit the crux of the issue here, and also landed the nail on the head. We are a small server with a dedicated population that is only here for a very, very minute host of reasons. In my case, it is that I am unwilling to run GTA: V and have no interest in moving to another server, nor will I. We are a gasping-breath dying breed, granted, but that doesn't mean we should go out in geriatric fumbling for our oxygen tanks and wondering what went wrong or if we could have salvaged this opportunity. We may not attract the array of new roleplayers that LS-RP used to, but we can lock down the old and those willing to take the plunge into something serious and, in my opinion, wholly awesome. Though our playerbase is low in comparison to past eras, it has cultivated a symbiotic criminal and faction-based ecosystem that I, as a roleplayer, have been chasing for over a decade now. I have been on the same account since LS-RP reopened and have used that time to cultivate IC relationships with a host of factions and independent roleplayers, that encompass the legal and illegal worlds and those that blur the lines between the two. The venture-specific, based-on-criminal-merit-and-modus-operandi archetype is something that has never entered the realm of IC materialization as well as it has right now. I am experiencing some of the best roleplay I've had on the server since 2008 at this exact moment. Each and every character that exists on LS-RP right now serves a purpose, or is working towards doing so. Every niche, no matter how small it may be, is a niche that deserves to be filled. The administration have done a great job of removing trolls that are not working towards this goal. To personify this, I have not been robbed in-game by those that aren't here to roleplay in the manner of past eras in months. To continue to foster this ecosystem, the importance of managing factions is of utmost importance. This does not constitute micromanagement of factions, but instead should consist of supporting factions that present good ideas and good roleplay and, thus, allowing them the space to succeed in their endeavors, or in their failure attempting to do so in-game. The reality of this quagmire is that we need to cater to our current playerbase. We do not need 700 factions, but instead a world where 700 micro-factions exist built off the backing of existing factions and their connections to these factions paving the way to success. There is no good way to encourage players to only join factions instead of creating their own, but it is not necessary, regardless, as it can never be feasibly attained. The illegal faction base is one of the strongest I've seen to date and I count myself as one of the lucky players to have helped so many long-standing official factions of the past to success, and still, we are looking better than ever in my eyes. Kudos to our current administration on making this a reality. You all deserve more thanks than you will ever receive, but you can count me amongst the utmost thankful in your creating this environment wherein roleplayers like me are able to succeed and develop characters in the manner we have been allowed to by good management. To the rest of you hanging off the fence, asking if you should leave, hop off my nuts and go. Hang from them, because they sag low at my age. Sharif Reynolds said it best. If you're asking if I'm arsed, I'm not, but you're negatively impacting a server that should be allowed to succeed with every factor already existing against it without your comments. We don't need your "dead LS-RP" comments, but instead constructive collaboration on how we can make a run of this server until it can't run any further. When this server dies, so, too, do a lot of good roleplayers. I have nothing but the utmost confidence in this server and all that it's brought to the table. This era of administration has the whole world before them to be the best I've ever seen and are actively working towards this goal before our very eyes.4 points

Eastside Hustler Crip (EHC) is a predominantly african-american street gang with it's roots going back as far as the 1980s. The gang has a long and rich history that revolves around gang violence and wrong doings, with the majority of members following a common theme of the desire for power, respect, women, money and protection. Gangs that fall under the Hustler Crips are loosely connected and are not necessary allies of each other. The term "street gang" is commonly used interchangeably with "youth gang", referring to neighborhood or street-based youth groups that meet "gang" criteria. Currently the gang has an active membership consisting of around twenty to thirty members. The gang operates around Jefferson, a district slightly to the northeast of the city center of Los Santos, San Andreas. North of Jefferson is Las Colinas, while to the south are Idlewood and Ganton. West of Jefferson is Glen Park, while to the east is East Los Santos. It's turf starts from Crenshaw Boulevard and stretches all the way over to Washington. The area has prominent gang activity and is a low-income district with a high crime rate. The gang is divided into three separate cliques: Crenshaw Hustler Crips (30s), Slauson Hustler Crips/Cardinal Hustler Crips (60s) and Washington Hustler Crips/Rowdy Hustler Crips (80s). In previous years there has been a noticeable downfall in the gang's membership, with the 60s Cardinal Hustler Crip sub-set being considered defunct for a period of time. Lately however the sub-clique and the overall function has seen an up-tick in new members joining, especially youth that seem to be driven by a promise of power and/or protection from other gangs. The Hustler Crips operate independently, which means each Hustler Crip set carry their own allies and Rivals. Eastside Hustler Crip doesn't fall under trays or deuce, they operate independently due to previous beef with both Gangster & Neighborhood Crip sets & also the majority of Mafia Crip sets as well. The Eastside Hustler Crip are rivals of 99 Mafia Crip, Florencia 13, Lennox 13, South Side 13, Bounty Hunter Bloods, Palm Tree Piru, 54 Van Ness Gangster Brim, 83 Gangster Crips, Kelly Park Hustler Crips, with Florence 13 being the longest running rivalry being directly responsible for the increased gang-related crimes around Jefferson. Police has an increased presence around Jefferson, making an effort to combat gang-related murders, shootings, and general violence related to gang activity.1 point
