don't forget the legal RP, add some diversity to businesses so players have other things to do other then get into shootouts add things that players can do as small groups too, for example operating a drug lab where each player would have a certain role or things like that

Hi, CEB officer here. I won't talk about the realisticity and the RP quality of what you offer too much, since people already talked about that.. We don't create the laws that we enforce, so the discussion shouldn't be about us, but instead whether the laws (or rules) themselves need changing. The only thing this current discussion will bring is more hate towards CEB, from people who we issued fines to or closed their businesses. If you want us to let people open businesses unrealistically without guards or let them have secret dungeons under their businesses, so be it, just change the laws. You said that RPing a guard is boring, but I see it is as a great opportunity for new players to meet other people, make connections and also get some money, instead of grinding truck deliveries. As for us closing down businesses - While I do feel bad when closing down a business because it does kill the roleplay, we are not doing it for every violation, only for serious violations or after multiple warnings or uncooperative business owners. Personally, I try not ty close a business down immediately after it opens. We also try to do it in a way that brings more roleplay, which works when a lot of people are around. I also see it as a positive thing, because it brings more interesting RP that you don't see every time a nightclub opens. If you think RPing a guard is boring and repetitive, and not many people want to do it, don't you think the same could be said about CEB if all we did is inspections and forum work? What's the point of it anyways if it won't be enforced? I don't have an issue if it is decided that we should not be closing down businesses, and instead deal with it in another way, but to say that all we need to do is forum work... at this point it makes more sense to close the faction altogether.

Keep it up

Good luck! 💪
