Since our Content Creator Program began in June, we've had some of LS-RP's best Content Creators sign up and get to work with some great videos! We have been so impressed by our Content Creator community, and I personally didn't even realise how big it actually was! As promised, here is our first Content Creator Spotlight, showcasing some of our favourite community content created over the past couple of months (Spoiler: it's not full of DM videos!). I am also pleased to announce that after careful deliberation, and feedback from other community members, we have pushed 6 content creators up to Level 2 Creators. This allows these creators to take advantage of some additional perks, including being able to submit content to be posted to the official LS-RP socials, and make unique requests in order to help them create better content. Congratulations to the following creators: New Level 2 Creators: @Angellify @mourn @Ralau @Thabiso_UNPLUGGED @BigTank @Hrovk1L If you are interested in joining the program yourself, please shoot me a PM. You can find out more information, as well as perks, here: https://community.ls-rp.com/forums/topic/26075-ls-rp-content-creator-program/?tab=comments#comment-257249 Below you will find some our favourite recently posted content.

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.

Howdy gamers, Today marks an incredible milestone for our community - Los Santos Roleplay is now eighteen years old. That’s old enough to vote, drive, purchase alcohol in most of the world (shout-out US of A), or take out a an unfavorable loan to finance a vehicle that’ll drop in value by half the moment you drive it off the lot. Yay! Around this time last year, when LS-RP was turning 17, we re-released our San Andreas Multiplayer server. Although it’s been a whirlwind of a year since then, I must say re-launching SA-MP has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made - which is something to say, considering I was adamantly against it until last minute. I feel our unsuccessful effort to transition into GTA V throughout 2023-2024 humbled us a lot. We learned a great deal about our approach to the community and how to prioritize our efforts so they’re as impactful as they can be. I’ve said this before, but I can’t overstate how happy I am with the place LS-RP is in currently. Not without flaws for sure, however after years of looking at descending trendlines, barring the occasional boost (RAGE launch, SA-MP relaunch), we’re finally seeing organic, steady growth month over month, for the past half year or so. A statistic that keeps surprising me every time I remember it is that over half of the players who play our SA-MP server today have never played LS-RP before we relaunched the SA-MP. That really goes to show this platform is still thriving and gives us the drive to continue improving it for a long time to come. Credit where credit is due, none of this would be possible without the amazing staff we have, and the passionate, engaged community which keeps pushing the envelope year by year, and day by day. So shout-out to all of you, and an even louder shout-out to people who refuse to simply embrace the status quo but instead choose to actively look for ways how to improve the community and our servers. I do my best to surround myself with people like that, as comfort and complacency are my (and LS-RP’s) worst enemies. To bring you some RAGE updates - we’re currently working on the last few features to finish before relaunch. We’ll be integrating the new Insider scheme shortly as we enter a testing phase to make sure all the features our RAGE team has worked on tirelessly for the past year work well. I’m stoked to show you some of the features and mechanics we came up with. There’s so much more I want to say in regards to RAGE, however as I mentioned a good few times previously, I’ve learned from my mistakes and I won’t speak on them too soon. But we’re close. Very close. Birthday Giveaway To celebrate LS-RP turning 18, we’re also giving away a month of free Premium membership to 18 of our players.
