2009-2010 - Long history 🙂

From GodFather RP to LS-RP – A Story Worth Telling As LS-RP celebrates its 18th year, I can’t help but look back at where it all started for many of us. Long before this server became what it is today, we were just a bunch of passionate roleplayers trying to find our place, and for me, it all began with the GodFather RP server. Back then, around 2005 to 2007 if memory serves, we were all part of the same faction, the Cuneo faction, led by Jonathan Doe, and later taken over by Margus. We were a tight-knit group and honestly, we probably took the game a bit too seriously. By the time GF-RP reached its final days, Cuneo owned almost everything: player-owned houses, businesses, you name it. Margus even ran the only gun shop on the server and had stacked up close to 2 billion in-game dollars. It was a wild time. Eventually, things reached a boiling point. Some drama sparked between the scripters, Fear was the main one back then, and the server was wiped. When it relaunched, everything had changed. There were no name tags, no OOC hints, you had to actually talk to people and figure out who they were. It was immersive, chaotic, and completely unforgettable. After that wipe, Amef, K, and I decided to try something different. Me and Amef are real-life friends, and we had played with K on GF-RP. K knew some scripting, so we figured it was worth a shot to build something of our own. We launched a small server, hosted on K's backup PC at home, and within a month or so, we had over 50 players online at all times. The numbers kept climbing. I was just 17 years old, had recently quit school to look for work, but instead I found myself glued to the server with Amef, playing day and night to grow the community. Then Mow joined and offered to host the server on a better computer, and that pushed everything forward even more. One of the key people who joined us early on was Fed. He brought a lot of creativity to the scripting side and was responsible for developing one of the first versions of the vehicle system, along with many other features that helped set the server apart. His contributions laid a solid base for what came next and helped bring the world of LS-RP to life. Hreno stepped in with a huge amount of dedication. He wasn’t just helping out casually, he sometimes spent up to 14 hours a day coding to improve the server and push features forward. His commitment and effort during that phase were a massive part of the foundation. Following that, DamianC came on board. He was part of the SA-MP tester team at the time and brought a more structured and experienced approach to scripting. That was another major turning point that helped LS-RP grow into something truly stable and long-lasting. Fun fact for those who didn’t know: our first forum domain was kjelvik.net/forum, before we managed to scrape together enough money to buy the LS-RP.com domain. Humble beginnings for sure. We brought in most of the old GF-RP player base, including nearly all of the original Cuneo members, and from there we started doing what we loved most, mafia roleplay the old way. And now, all these years later, I also want to give massive respect to the current leadership. A huge shoutout to mmartin, who has been running the show as developer and owner for what feels like forever. The work, the consistency, and the dedication it takes to carry this community forward year after year is no small task. Thank you for taking LS-RP to this level and keeping it alive for a whole new generation to experience. So here’s to the old days To Jonathan Doe(R.I.P) and Margus, leaders of the Cuneo faction To the Cuneo crew and LS-RP beginning: SpitZ, Giorgio Moretti, Fed, Monty Carlo, Tobin Wright, Pxm, and Amef (and mostlikely many more) To the admins messing around To the grind, the fun, the chaos, the friendships, and the factions we built together To everyone who played a part, big or small And to mmartin and the current team for keeping the flame burning And of course, happy 18th birthday to LS-RP Here’s to another 18 years of chaos, stories, and community

Just out of curiosity, what was your in-game name? Neither amef nor I can remember it – but that might just be because it was so long ago.

Well yes, Probably the first LS-RP movie uploaded to youtube was 17 years ago. When Paul McCullister and Meg McCullister got married the first ever wedding on LS-RP - The whole server attended to the wedding. Here is the link to that movie, you can see my old name Vito Tagliano in the beginning of the movie as Witnesses To prove I "was" Vito Tagliano this my admin log when I was admin back in the days - The dates goes so far back it isnt objectiv any more. https://imgur.com/a/bkDthJQ Need any more proofs ? 🙂

I am 🙂 Actually from the first hour to be exact 🙂

Hei 🤪

I am thinking of SAMP, sports cars like the Infernus, Cheetah, and Turismo to the server? We could also introduce off-road options like the Dune and Bandito to give players more variety. It would be great if the Patriot could be made available for civilians, and if it's possible, we could allow customization for the FBI Rancher by disabling the sirens and change colors and tires. The Hotring Racer in red and blue could also be added, especially if we can offer custom paint options for them. Additionally, it might be worth looking through the current vehicle list and adjusting prices to reflect their value better. If possible, maybe even consider creating a dynamic script that adjusts car prices over time, especially to target players with a lot of money, which could help balance the economy a bit more.

How about adding more sports cars to the server? The vehicle options haven’t been updated in a long time. Introducing new cars would provide more value and create an outlet for spending, helping to reduce the amount of money in circulation. While it might not completely solve inflation, it would at least remove some money from the server without causing too much pushback from players.

Hi, I am throwing out a suggestion that I think would fit the the RP of LS-RP and atleast now that it is going over to GTA V. LS-RP is creating jobs for people to do to earn money that is something everyone can do to earn money. But what if they let people make their own companies with the possibilites of hire people and buy a property for that company and set the wage that the hired people will earn based on the income for the company ? lets take Trucker\Taxi\Bus\Mechanic\ as an example. You join the company you buy a car and you start working - But what if you can extend this Some people will extend this with RPing a company and buy a radio and recruite people and give them a radio channel to join to share information. What if we look on this from a new angle - You can create a company - buy a property for this company, hire people (promote\demote\give them a title), buy company cars for the employees that can be used for doing the job that they are hired to do, set wages based on the income. People can use their RP experience on a whole new level. With this system you can have much more fun with the fact of taking a job. People will use their imagination and try and create the best and most sucsessful company Have proper Law firm's, Trucker Company's, Mechanic companies, taxi, bus, body guard, airplane, and so on. Just a suggestion.

Actually 100% wrong 🙂 Mow arrived like 5-6 months after we ran it on K's private PC and only provided a server for us 🙂

Everyone got a new forum account ? 😮
