Keep deleting the threads boys, that'll make them change their mind on leaving
it's like the kids that say it's never their fault
but they ruin the fun for everyone.
management should accept this as it is and will be: dead lol. even open or closed. (waiting for someone to probably ban/mute me and delete my posts anyways)

Just give up guys, Mmartin has been on holiday in Slovenia for the last days, right after he came back out of nowhere saying the Sunday meeting will be postponed. Dude's living his life lmao.

LSRP would've been great if people like Mmartin would be kept away, he's just lying to everyone for months giving fucked up reasons and thinking that everyone will buy his lies for the 100th time lol. This will never see the day of light, and even if that happens, it'll be a massive L because no one will return here, for the obvious reasons. LSRP was great when you played it with your friends and enjoyed it, but looking back, there was hardly any activity regarding updates or implementing new features. People kept donating regardless of that, and that's why Suggestions were locked for years :). To whoever still hopes this opens up, just move on and remember LSRP as a good old memory where you learned wonderful stuff and met great people.
For me LSRP was logging in in Carson for around 3 years and spending hours and hours trying to bring some action in the county. Having barbecues and talking about aliens and basically just having fun.
LSRP was when your mIRC would ping and your PC would buzz like hell.LSRP was when you spent many nights playing with your friends and simply had fun with almost nothing.
LSRP was.
I've tried to join this once I saw the GTA V server and I was surprised to see updates being pushed regularly, but what happened since March proves me that I wasn't wrong - LSRP will be LSRP. It's too late to return and try to change something now, any excuse is useless and no one will ever believe anyone in the Lead Staff anymore. Zero transparency = zero players.
Whatever and whenever opens here, it'll be either old relics playing for the nostalgia, or banned players that are not accepted anywhere else by now. And the relics will leave as soon as they realize that.
i'm probably getting banned from this forum by now, but I've seen enough crazy shit in my time here.

it all depends on the mood and what I do.
I go from craft beer, usually red ale, to whiskey and scotch.
I like wine, I have this little italian place next to me and the lady always recommends good wines - depending on what I cook for dinner.
I like gin, with tonic water.
Whiskey with an ice cube
Ron de Jeremy - very good
these are usually the drink that I enjoy, but it’s based on what I do that day - if it’s a mens night I’m going for beer of course.

I wanna learn german, and some italian.

Like others have said, more drug-addicted/homeless chars. Homelessness in L.A. is a serious problem.
Also, more regular civi chars living in the hood that aren't actually trying to join the local gang. More unique-looking & odd chars.
Would be cool to have an active "music scene" where bands/artists play music live at different types of venues.
Currently there’s an ongoing talk about music scene in LSRP and how it will be realistically portrayed. hopefully all the discussions will lead to it.

I remember when I joined LSRP after leaving it for like 3 years and it was an earthquake/meteorite event and I had no idea that was going on, so I was so freaking confuse about the whole map being turned upside down and why are 600 players but not a single soul in Los Santos. Then I realized that FD was trying to rescue me to take me to the shelters and my first encounter with rp was a lemon stand where people came to buy in the shelters.
afterwards I ran a “charity business” where I used to wear a suit and ask politicians for money, not very proud of it tbh.

ngl players not knowing the difference between live mixing and a YT playlist sounds like a you issue. punishing them by restricting access to a popular feature just so you can rp a DJ better is selfish as fuck
sanitize inputs properly and give players a quick-client side toggle to mute stations. other communities do this just fine and if a beloved server with dozens of admins and testers cant find the time to teleport to someone playing explicit content, listen for 5 second, ban them and then leave then idk lol
the most obvious solution is to just have a place on the UCP you can upload custom streams to and have testers/admins/or even a selection of hand picked players hop on to accept/verify which i think is whats gonna happen anyways
this sounds like the best option, with the UCP. I doubt people will abuse it because it’s quite hard to find something disturbing to play, but it would be nice to be limited to inside areas where it wouldn’t mess things up. for open areas, a boom box with the classic stations would probably be enough.
and I believe that no one said to stop the customized music to Djs, it was only a point of view. realistically speaking, anyone can listen to their own music.
It would be nice to see a headphone feature where you can listen to your own tracks uploaded by UCP as a simple citizen, not necessarily in a car or a building, and you’d be the only one hearing the music - but this feature can wait, it’s not so important in my view

Unfortunately, EVERYTHING was at the mall and it was an easy way to be spoon fed so called "RP" so people would just flock there.
Ads, clothes, some cosmetic only melee weapons, etc all available at the mall. So if necessities were available across a few hotspots where different types of people would naturally flock in to is crucial to ensuring a mall situation doesn't occur again.
I totally understand that, but mall roleplay always was poorly made - what I’m talking about is that chaotic type of roleplay that doesn’t involve anything to it and it affects the reputation. Sure, role playing at the mall about various activities sounds like a lot of fun, if it’s made properly. I always roleplayed at the mall when I went shopping and so on, and if that happens, it’s great.
The mall is normal to be crowded because that’s how it is in real life, but to be at least quality roleplay.

i would love to see some sociopath or psychopath rp tbh, i might even do it myself
working on this one. hopefully it will turn out into something nice.
I'd love to see more character development, in any type of roleplay, but especially in SASD/LSPD - there was a problem back in the day where some people from LSPD/SASD ignored any development and were basically robocops(a cop with a beach house and 3 expensive cars, yet the salary was very low and this would not be possible in real life). I'd love to see more country roleplay, where people genuinely do it for the love of it, and not trolling. More in depth roleplay in country areas, not just meth heads and rednecks, but some typical country guy that owns a farm, curse at the government, etc. More realistic gangster roleplay, with more emotions shown - no more 13 y/o guy who drives a Bullet..that was horrible. More in depth mobster roleplay, with ups and downs, with fights inside the mafia, stuff that would happen in real life, you know?
Basically, more involvement in everything, meaning that people will dedicate their time in their characters, this way every faction would have its unique features, and every player would be different.
And please, for the love of God, no more mall roleplay - just interact with people other ways, that mall on GTA SA was horrible, it ruined things.
-
Yea, the second option sounds more suitable. Certain places with personalized music would be a nice touch in such places, I totally agree - even in cars, it's your own personal vehicle so it doesn't matter what you listen. I'm just not OK with hearing personalized music on boomboxes on street, it would be a bit messy.

Sorry but your proposal sounds like an RPG server. People have a lot of fun roleplaying realistic characters in realistic scenarios - the mall rats had the name for a reason, that always ruined the fun for whoever was in the area(got my car stolen more than 5 times from there even though the place was in the middle of the city and realistically no one would steal a car from a place like that, countless fights, people just messing around), and it created this 'bubble' of middle to low roleplay, which eventually affected the server's reputation.
The whole purpose of LSRP is that here people have a high standard when it comes to roleplay, compared to other communities or servers where players want the 'fun(which is not fun at all) part. Lack of roleplay would basically label LSRP as a middle to low roleplay server where people can mess things up - that's why people who acted like that always got punished. I remember when I was an admin that I caught this group of 4 guys in a car basically killing people at 6AM for no reason, and when I questioned them they simply said 'we just wanted to have fun', which, to me, makes no excuse to their behaviour.
As someone else said above, the definition of fun can vary from a guy to another, that's why we have a variety of factions and groups, where some are more character development oriented, where others are oriented to making money and have fun like you said (brawls, etc.). I think that we have the right balance between fun and realistic environments. Mall rats will always exists, and it's OK because it creates the proper place for people who want to 'have fun' to have a place for that, but for the rest of us I believe we would want to keep it classy and realistic. The mall had an RPG feeling around it, because those people barely did any proper roleplay or had any intention to pursue a development of a character - they all had expensive cars and fancy clothes and went from a club to another, had some 'fun' and that was it. I was a mallrat when I started here because I had no idea what to do, so it's OK to hang out at first when you don't know anyone and you look for any roleplay to exercise, but after a while I joined a lot of factions and changed my attitude when it came to roleplaying.
tldr: LSRP is a high standard roleplay server, the 'fun' part that you're describing sounds a lot like an RPG server which I doubt anyone will want to have here - 'fun' means something else for everyone of us, and I think that more than 50-60% of people here are for quality roleplay and not DMing people.

As some people said, this would ruin any music-orientated roleplay that people may enjoy (I wanna roleplay an artist/DJ/producer with a record shop and label and this would basically mess up the roleplay). Also people would probably play a lot of anything that's basically forbidden just to mess with it. I'm against this, people have enough stations to play, from rock to foreign music. I'd love to see this in clubs though, DJs could actually put some work into it and come up with a list of tracks for the night, for different venues.
Also a DJ is not someone who just looks for tracks on youtube :), it's more than that, if you wanna do it properly and roleplay it by the book - which I hopefully people will.
edit1: I'd love to see personal playlists in cars and businesses, not on the street though. And saying 'admins can punish those who break the rule' would mean more work for Admins and I believe they have more important stuff to take care of, instead of looking at what people are playing on their speakers. Sorry, but this logic means that there's no reason to have anything restricted because admins can punish people...some features are restricted because of it, so admins would not do the detective work over players to see stuff like this.

Damn, that's right, I do remember that. I enjoyed lurking through the screenshots, keeping up with all the different stories and such.
You had a good thing going on there, would be great to have it here as well.
Thank you, kind words.
I'll join as a simple guy in the country side, I don't have the time fully commit to it, but I will help as much as possible with everything.

I'm too lazy to read everything but I'm willing to help with anything that I'm capable of, I own two labels in real life and I collaborated with booking agencies and have some knowledge about events in the music area(usually eletronic) - we can make a proper business if it's done right here. Would be nice to have a way to stream mixes through radios inside clubs, I'd love to see more diversity, rather than boring commercial music in clubs. I'm thinking a podcast series weekly where people can actually show their real life work in terms of music (from ambient to rock, whatever is their passion), along with interviews, photographies, etc.
I remember owning a pseudo-fashion design house with some friends but we didn't had the time to take care of it - I'd love to see something like that too.
Everything else sounds great, from museums to journalism. We could make some Andy Warhol type of business here and combine them all into one unique hub of arts, one huge group of friends that combine music with photography, film, painting, journalism, and so on - this is just my main idea, but I'd adore to see this made properly with a touch of the 70/80s, people being all artsy-partsy and developing characters in that way.

Thanks for the backstory it was very good!
People always misunderstands when the subject country roleplay comes up cause people think we are all about redneck alabama charles manson shit.This is not the case, you can roleplay a redneck if you do it proberly. But there is so much more to do than that, a normal citizen living in the countryside, a farmer, a moonshiner, somebody who brews beer locally, the guy who owns the local bar, and the dude that works in the nearby shop, and of course the guy who plants his own weed and sells it for almost no profit to the locals. and the bikers, the people on a dirtbike everybody, and the guy with the tractor.
So many roles out there to fill out and so many possibilites, I want trailer parks to be a thing out there, and not for meth RP but because it is a lifestyle for some people, and because it is alot cheaper.We want that kind of RP because it is a minority, and trollers would be dealt with no questions asked.
Yea, that sounds like what we had on Carson - even though that type of redneck alabama charles manson shit can be very authentic if someone manages to do it without looking like a total troll. You can count me in, I'll roleplay a mentally ill polish guy somewhere in the country side, not sure where, but I'll be around.
