Black Organized Crime in modern day Los Angeles is decentralized - heavily rooted in prison networks, streetgangs, and out of state DTO's using the city as their stomping grounds. Our faction hosts a wide variety of characters to accurately reflect this. Great attention is placed on fostering long-running storylines that tie every person in the faction together, as well as offer depth to each individual one's portrayal. Membership is open to both new characters and pre-established ones used in streetgang factions or solo roleplay, queries about joining should be sent to @boris1 ,@Iamkaciii or @Gnarp.

Keep it up bosses!

-Shady friends-

The faction aims to accurately and fairly portray a group of white, and Mexican kids between 13-16 years old, who have been influenced by White Fence 13. Character development is the foundation of the faction, as we want all faction characters to have well-illustrated traits and each have their own particularities. Upon joining the faction, members of the faction's high council are allowed to give you CK whenever they deem it necessary. For information regarding joining the faction (e.g., the Discord server), it is recommended that you send a PM to @Hoodstyle. We accept, for the most part, any member with a minimum of roleplay. The only requirement imposed by the faction for roleplaying with us is that all your actions take place ICly, avoiding the use of OOC chat (/b) as much as possible. Through this faction, we are trying to show that roleplay can be fun even if we don't include so many wars, shootings, and so on. Roleplay can be fun because you have a family besides gangbanging, you have high school, you have a mother or father or in some cases both, you can be punished by them depending on what you do in character and so on. The faction is based mostly on character development, and most of the time you won't see us making money from one thing or doing just one thing. We try to diversify things and make the roleplay as realistic as possible. For more information, you can send a PM to unknownmember0 on Discord or on the forum @Hoodstyle

We want more 🔥

SAMP is a community driven game. People love to point fingers - a lot of the replies to this thread; people are very subtly pointing fingers at styles of roleplay that they don't like, or even this boogeyman that they dub as "idlewood roleplayers" or "newcomers" while, in reality, these factors were always here. The gameplay loop hasn't changed since I played LSRP in 2014. It's the same formula; less players, of course, but LSRP has not changed one bit. What changed is the community... And if you wanna speak on broader terms - the internet itself. We ended up with a culture where being passionate about something online became condemnable, something to laugh at. A 180 turn from the "nerd" culture of the 2010s during which LSRP was flourishing. Caring about roleplay is now "cringe" because: "it's a dead game, why do you care?", but the same people saying so, quickly turn around and talk about "roleplay standards" when it concerns their rival factions. To add onto that, any concepts that don't mimic oldschool, "grimey" roleplay are shunned for this exact reason. God forbid a teenager that wasn't there for the server's peak finds your roleplay "cringe", God forbid you stray away from the norm whatsoever. The norm being: self-insert gangster characters neutered into being breathing, walking, tasteless stereotypes copied straight from r/LaGangbangin and pasted onto LSRP; in terms of skins, lingo, and personality. Widespread insensitivity killed the internet, and it killed SAMP. Yes, there was a "golden age" when the people playing this game were 16, still laughing at nyan cat memes, and discovering rap songs in-game from aazoradio to download onto their ipod. Will that golden age ever return? Probably not, but there's nothing we can do about it - making a majority of this thread's replies needless; a medium for salty people to take subtle digs at their OOC opps, knowing that they'll see it, because we, as a community, and users of the internet, have become waaaaaaay too obsessed with what other people think of ourselves. Regardless, there's still some kid out there trying SAMP out for the first time in their life, and the best you can do to bring this golden age of yours back is, give them a chance before they either get mixed up into another copy-paste streetgang faction, or find more enjoyment in messing around as a mallrat.
