No cap this is going to official in the end. Good RP with your members so far.

Hi everyone, July has escaped us all! As summer winds down, we're excited to share updates regarding what has been happening across the community. Ranging from Illegal Faction Team updates to our Staff Update. If you haven't already checked out our Content Creator Spotlight I'd recommend you do so, this also provides instructions on how to apply and insights regarding perks you can get whilst being a content creator. A brief note from @Mmartin: Over the past few weeks, there's been a focus on making adjustments in our server management to allow for a more decentralized, self-sustainable and efficient structure. A couple of weeks ago, we opened LOIs for Lead Admin positions, and as a result there's been quite a few recent promotions and a great deal of progression within the staff team. I'd like to share the changes to our management structure; @badhbh is taking on the Head of Operations (HOO) role; she knows that side of the server inside and out and I've no doubt that she's a great choice and will do well to ensure the teams that fall under Ops run smoothly. This will require her stepping away from the day to day of Legal/Illegal faction management however with the help of our newly promoted staff members, these teams have not been left unattended. She will also be supported by @Lemon as Assistant Head of Operations. @bobster is taking on the Head of Staff (HOS) role; bobster has been leading the admin team for quite some time now and has done an excellent job with it, so once again I'm fully confident in this choice. Due to this change, it opened open the position of Head of Admins, which has since been filled by @risen and as a result Head of Testers has been filled by @celestine. I'd like to thank all involved in the management of our staff team for the immense effort and dedication each one of you have shown so far. We've also taken on three new (and returning) members to the development team as of late. It's great to see that we've so many passionate staff members, and I'm excited to see what the future holds. There's still further changes to be made, and positions to open up which will be discussed/announced in due course. Without further ado, our August Community Update: Illegal Faction Team July has been an extremely productive month for the Illegal Faction Team. Over the course of the month the Illegal Faction Team has been working side by side with server developers, coming up with ideas on how to increase the level of roleplay surrounding illegal factions, from clothing items to new scripts. Look out for these in our current and upcoming updates! If these discussions are something that interest you make sure to either reach out to @Kev for Illegal Faction Team Public queries or keep your eyes peeled for Illegal Faction Team recruitment openings. We would like to congratulate @badhbh on her recent promotion. She has held down Illegal Faction Council for some time now, and with her recent promotion, will be taking a step back from IFC. With this change came an opening in the Illegal Faction Council. We would like to thank every applicant who sent in a LOI for the position. It's great to see how many people are motivated to lead and encourage changes around the illegal scene on the server. Ultimately, despite there being serious competition with the applicants, we would like to congratulate @Rye on becoming the newest addition to IFC. We look forward to seeing his contributions to the team. Rye has been an active and dedicated member of the Illegal Faction Team, and his promotion to Illegal Faction Council is very well deserved. We would also like to congratulate a faction that over the last few months has been generating nothing but terrific roleplay. Following their recent application to join the ranks of Official Faction Candidates, alongside Harlows, we would like to congratulate The Marat Gusarov Brigade on becoming an Official Candidate. We're excited to see the new heights you reach with the support of your faction handler. We'd also like to welcome @LaMarcus_Boone and @meri to the Illegal Faction Team. Company Team We have been busy making important updates to the company system! One of the main aspects that we have been working on is the economy between companies and the wider community. Company assets now have real value, where companies can now sell assets to eachother, and when a company closes down, it's assets are now liquidated, allowing other companies (and soon everyone else) to have the ability to purchase these liquidated assets on auction. We have also seen a massive uptick in company applications lately, hitting a record high for this year! Along with this, we have also noticed the activity of current companies increasing across the board! Things are going really well, and we thank everyone who is putting in so much to bring opportunities to players through their companies. If you're interested in applying for a company, you can find out more information here.

Welcome Home

PRE-SKITS / MEMBERS ONLY.

BREAK-INS / BUSSDOWN JOINTS.

RECRUITMENT. Allow us to introduce ourselves; on behalf of all of the ALL SIDE 40 CRIP leadership and high council we'd like to hold ourselves up to a pretty high standard of roleplay and we say that in the humblest way possible. Instead of instantly trying to roleplay with the faction, it is recommended that you join our Discord server for a more in-depth look behind the faction's infrastructure and how we operate as a whole. Keep in mind that before making your character, the community is the key. We're portraying a street-gang within a community, however, if you are looking for something higher to tie it all together, this is where our emphasis on our community development and interaction comes into play. Our ultimate goal is to portray a realistic street gang with a community like atmosphere within the Western Jefferson (Vermont Square) neighborhood. It is imperative that you check it frequently to stay up to date with the conversations and topics that are present revolving the faction within the Discord. If you're not serious about role-playing with us and don't have any quality role-play to contribute to the faction, then don't even bother joining because you will be weeded out and removed without a warning. The faction itself consists of a majority of American-time zoned members (GMT -4 to GMT -8), however, there are quite a few members in the European time zone (GMT 0), so people should keep in mind that you will probably catch people in-game no matter what time zone you are in. Every day is different, so our "peak" times cannot be specified. You will most likely catch more members online during the nighttime and sometimes during the afternoon due to school and work (between 2:00 PM and 12:00 PM).

La Mano Negra The Mexican Mafia (a/k/a 'La/The Eme', 'Emily', 'Maria', 'Mariposa', 'The Hand') is a Mexican-American criminal organization which was founded by juvenile felons incarcerated alongside older convicts in "vocational institutions". These juvenile felons were rumored to have been thirteen in number, though this is likely a legend propagated by Mexican Mafia cadres. They were members of Mexican-American street gangs who had been incarcerated for violent crime and street gang related crime. Since its founding in 1957, the criminal organization has grown to be one of the most powerful forces within the criminal underworld in the San Andreas correctional system despite its comparably tiny size. The organization is infamous for its unwavering influence over Hispanic street gangs throughout Southern San Andreas.
