  1. What kinds of mods will be allowed? I realize that it's already covered by the rules & might be practically impossible to enforce, however certain sound mods can give you an unfair advantage over other players because they're louder. Same applies to certain graphic mods which increase the brightness drastically during nighttime. 

    Also, does this

    Objects should not be altered in any way whatsoever.

    mean that ENV mods (graffiti packs, street signs, etc.) are prohibited?

    Generally, I don't agree entirely with a wholesale replacement of California with San Andreas. It leaves very little scope for us to define our own history, and the LSPD and government agencies alike have their own history and policy that isn't 100% based on their real life equivalent. To scrap that all the way up to 2019 can be damaging to the factions. 

    As a matter of the fact replacing the state gives your far more leeway in terms of craeting your own history. You get to choose which events you acknowledge (as I mentioned in my previous reply) instead of having to come up with them on your own.

    Most other things look good to me, though. Bordering Oregon and Nevada doesn't sit well with me because we have a very real coastline in San Andreas. How could you explain away the east or north coasts? 

    Suspension of disbelief. I believe it's not that much of an issue and we're all able to agree that it benefits the server.

    How could we possibly hope to enforce a "San Fierro doesn't exist" rule, or Liberty City for that matter when so many people incorporate it into their roleplay and character? I don't think it should be officially mentioned but it certainly can't be banned. 

    I agree. I believe we could just allow people to use those terms interchangeably and say that they can be recognized as nicknames for those real life cities. 

  3. I agree with everything you wrote here for the most part. There's a couple small changes I'd like to see though:
    a) Paleto Bay should be replacing Bakersfield;
    b) A list of real life events applicable to the server should be established; i.e. are we allowed to acknowledge the 1992 Rodney King LA riots as a thing that happened in LS? Are we allowed to acknowledge the Rampart scandal or North Hollywood shootout, and the corruption of Lee Baca (LASD sheriff)? This has to be touched upon in order to clarify whether those occurrences can be referrenced IC or not;
    c) Does Cali caselaw apply on the server? I realize that this is something that concerns primarily legal (court and LEO) roleplayers & not the entirety of the server, but this is something quite important in my belief. As a matter fact they also apply to illegal roleplayers (for example Ashker v. California is a very important precedent when it comes to prison factions and SHU).

    But that isn’t the most realistic approach, at all. SD can handle Custody Operations as much as they choose. Only because SD is technically Custody Assistants in real life and they have no SADCR faction.

     

    Also, incase you didn’t know SADCR would technically handle Boiling Broke. SD would handle Twin Towers, so that isn’t as realistic either.

     

    As listed above, SD can continue handling Boiling Broke, allow for Probation Department to handle the probation, parole, and so on side of things.

    I'd rather they do it despite it being unrealistic over having a whole new LEO faction centered solely around this very small piece of the community. It just isn't needed in any way or form. 

    Also, it's actually not even that unrealistic. SD can just NPC that the probation dept. exists somewhere in the background. http://pars.lasd.org/Viewer/Manuals/13233/Content/14325 LASD has probation/parole compliance teams.

    I have been roleplaying on this server from 2017 and never has it been roleplayed as an individual "island." San Andreas has ALWAYS replaced California. I don't know where this analogy is coming from.

     

    The existence of California has never been acknowledged throughout the course of LSRPs existence.

    Literally this. Not only by 2018-19 most factions acknowledged that we replace California, but also attempted their best at portraying the Californian aesthetics, lifestyle and culture.

    We will be adding a new wiki book called 'Lore' and add the 'San Andreas' and 'Los Santos' lore to it, so that no one will be confused as to what to roleplay. We will under no circumstances be roleplaying a bridge connecting us to the mainland. This is due to the fact that we do not have a bridge on the physical map in-game that connects us to the main land, and we will not be mapping one. Therefore, we are defined as an island. More information will come when the wiki page launches on wiki.ls-rp.com.

     

    Of course the lead team will take the comments here into consideration when writing the lore, so feel free to post still if you have anything to say that you feel is important should be mentioned in the lore book.

    I mean you didn't really clarify anything. If per server lore the entire state is considered an island, will you guys at least acknowledge that it replaces California/Southern California.
