Either their UCP name or player name would be best If you really don't know either of these then you can write after their name that it's their forum name

We'll note that down for next year 🙏

COMMUNITY AWARDS 2025 The highly requested community awards have finally made a return! This is an old tradition that we used to do on our old forums. With the return of the Community Awards in 2025, we have decided to do things a bit differently from previous years. This time around, if you win a category, you will receive an award badge on your forum profile corresponding to the category that you won. This award badge will remain with your profile forever. In some categories the badge can only be won by one person, whilst in other categories, the corresponding badge can be won and applied to all members of an entire faction or company. This year the community awards isn't just a popularity content (although some categories will still cover this), but we also have categories that are won based on activity stats, such as "Most Active Unofficial Illegal Faction of 2025", or even view counts on videos. Starting today, you will be able to find the Community Awards 2025 survey on the UCP, where you will be able to vote for your top picks for any of the votable categories. You don't need to vote for all categories, but after you click submit, you will be unable to change your votes. If you would like to enter a stat-based category, you will need to fill out the form found near the bottom of this post and send it to @ROZE. Your faction/company and all of it's members will then be eligible to win the award. Some of the stat based categories only consider stats over the next 2 weeks, meaning if you are a new faction/company, you will still have a chance to win. Scrolling down you will be able to find all of the categories for the Community Awards 2025, as well as the corresponding profile badge that can be won. The ability to vote will end on the 23rd of June, 2025, and the winners will be announced and awarded on the 25th of June, 2025. Votes will only be eligible from accounts created before 11/JUNE/2025. I recommend not rushing into completing the survey as quickly as you can - Give it a couple of days to make sure that you vote for the right people GOOD LUCK!

Congratulations!

Following this!

Just here to show some love

Amazing stuff as always!

Big congrats!

Congrats! Merry Christmas!

I'm not getting involved with the drama posted here before me. My reply is to the topic's original title: "Can we bring back the old playerbase count?". Do you remember when first joined LS-RP, reader? It was exciting being thrown into a world with loads of people living their own virtual lives, you were meeting new people, joining new groups, you were having fun and learning more about the community. Everything was new and you were impressed by the big factions and businesses. We still get a lot of new players here, and this is still the experience that they have when they join the server for the first time. I'm in the unique position to be running such a big company in game, I speak to a lot of new players, probably more than almost anybody in this community, my company receives about 3-5 applications a day, a majority of them being from new players. We give them a chance to learn how to rp and get to know them. I often ask these new players how they found out about LS-RP, what they like, what they don't like, and how they feel about things overall. I hear positive feedback from nearly 100% of the new players I speak to. Unfortunately when asking old players the same questions you will receive negative feedback from most people. The new car smell has worn off. My point in saying this is because one of my main goals as a new lead admin is to create a strategy to bring in new players and improve the player count. New players that end up sticking around are generally some of the nicest and most motivated people that I get to talk to. With the way things are setup right now, LS-RP is not user friendly for new people, we don't have an up to date tutorial, the news paper is gone, it's complicated for new people to join factions or jobs, the /help system is outdated, our website does not have a clear home page, etc etc. These are all things that will be worked on with urgency after the 14.0.0 update, which is coming very soon. When asking new players how they found LS-RP, an overwhelming majority of them say that they found us via YouTube. With this information in hand, I have recently been in discussions with a couple of prominent content creators in our area of roleplay, such as Userone, in order to gain feedback on how we can work with them to make the content-creation experience better for those looking to do so in LS-RP. In the coming days we will be launching a content creator program where people can earn credits, additional support, and recognition for their videos from the staff team. Making LS-RP user friendly to new people and creating a better platform for content creators, hopefully we can bring in new players and retain them, upping the overall player count. We also have plans to have our server back on the server browser. You can also help with upping the player count by being more open to new players, you were a new player once and people probably helped you, you might even still remember those great people from back when you first joined. A lot of people are extremely dismissive to new players.
