It's been a while, huh? Well, it's that time lads. I want to address the community, especially those unwilling to login anymore - what the hell do y'all want, and what the hell is your problem? What the hell have you not gotten? Let me get back to you on that, let me first point out to all the stuff that we have gotten. Company Team: - We wanted revised business income policy and script in order to enable businesses to actually earn money and be worth while for their owners. - We got that. - We wanted for business furniture to remain free past the first month of the server, in order not to put aspirant business owners at a massive disadvantage to others that applied for a business a mere 15 days before them. - We got that. - We wanted the ability to do /cad from our businesses. - We got that. - We wanted the ability to be paid for doing a business/in-character work that isn't necessarily the stereotypical bar, cafe and etc. (e.g. magazines, news agencies, etc) - We got that. - We cried about being unable to afford an interior designer for our sex dungeons. - Company team spawned us money to pay interior designers. - We wanted trucking, taxi and etc player owned companies that are tied to actual existing script jobs. - We got that. - And much, much, much more. The point is that the company team has been nothing short of spectacular in not only listening to the players, but actively co-operating with them for the good of all sides involved, and of course the server and it's business scene. Faction Team: - We wanted schemes, we got schemes. - We wanted more schemes, we got more schemes. - We wanted solo schemes, we got solo schemes. - We cried for even more ways to make money illegally. Introducing scenario schemes. - I personally cried for /f chat to be enabled (it wasn't intended to) because why not? We got that. - We're getting faction cars and properties on request, something typically reserved for official factions, just to "help us roleplay or whatever" - we are getting those. I'll say that Faction Team has been moving rather slow in some aspects, perhaps too slow at times, but you have to give credit where credit is due, and we really did get a lot of stuff/most that we have asked for. I dare say we even got a lot more stuff from the faction team as random, 1 month old factions that normally roleplaying servers are accustomed to giving. These two teams are the backbones for helping create for players, or helping players create for themselves and for others. What the hell have they not given you? Property Team: - Y'all wanted the ability to request properties, interior changes, exterior furniture for businesses, outdoor script support for businesses and all that kind of quality of life cool stuff? Well, you got all that. And from what I can see in the forums the proprety team is getting shit done in an extremely timely manner. Economy Team: - Y'all wanted for the hardcore economy to be toned down a bit, for pay to be buffed across the board, for automatic paychecks to be added. What the hell have you not gotten? - Do you want /everything/ for free? If you're still broke, then that is because of your own self. There are /more/ than enough ways to make money. You can sustain/own an excellent car and a home at a great location for virtually doing nothing (no in-game work) but online time. Now, if you want to actually be rich/resourceful - you have to put some work into it. What's so wrong about that? General Administration: - Myself has been one of the most loud whiners about the general administration and the urgent need to crack down on all the stupid shit, poor escalations, deathmatching and etc in-game. All of that has been done in case you haven't noticed. I mean, come on, Tony Bilmain has been banned. I still feel like there is a lot of room to grow in that direction, but it should be obvious to anyone who cares to look that the general administration has been looking to crack down on stupid shit, or quite frankly have been getting sick and tired of stupid shit themselves. This is a win. Development Team: - Ah shit, here we go again with the development team being the villains, and the script being barebones as fuck. Unplayable? Innit? No, it is fucking not. Yes, the script is raw, but notice all of these cool things that we have gotten above from a variety of staff teams. More than half of them needed the development team to put in the work to enable the ability for these other staff teams to give us these cool things that we wanted. Yes, the server released with a script that didn't live up to expectations, but we have for the most part gotten everything that we have wanted since then, and the development team has been the key player and the fire starter in making sure that we do get all that we wanted. - So, what the fuck do y'all want? The lack of a hunting script is ruining the LS-RP experience for you? There's quality role play going on into the server. If this does not retain you, nothing will. Now it's time to expand on the original subject of the topic and just the above development team rant that I have written. Do you remember when roleplaying was about storytelling? Creativity? Imagination? Do you remember when you didn't need 9000 features/scripts to babysit you for you to have fun roleplaying? Do you need for an automated robot/script to do /everything/ for you? I'll ask again - What the hell do y'all want? There is great role play going on into the server. If this doesn't retain you - then absolutely no script feature will. Isn't this a roleplaying community? Are you not here to roleplay? Do you need for an RPG-esque system to hold your hand or even - do everything for you? This truly is an age of 100% self-entitlement and 0% self-accontability. Everyone wants everything right now, but doesn't want to do anything about it. Understand that, even with all the scripts in the world and paid developers working 24 hours around the clock - this server is only as good as it's communty. The staff can give us the tools (and they have been giving them), they can't use them instead of ourselves. If everyone sits on the outside and waits for LS:RP to become a better place before diving in, then it will never be. Be the change that you want to see. And this is coming from someone who has been hyper-critical of staff on many ocassions. And for staff members who are on LOA here while playing GTA:W - Please step down.
