Code:
[b]Explain your suggestion, [i]in detail[/i][/b]: Buff woodcutting to $100 a piece of wood instead of $75
[b]Explain why the suggestion should be implemented[/b]: Woodcutting gets you literally no profit
anymore, especially when you can sit in a room with contra and weed and make tones more

I hardly see anyone woodcutting now.

Not until you have a reason to woodcut and a risk to it, not necessarily meaning being able to lose them from crime but rather through a process - such as converting wood into something and a % chance it wouldn't be successful and so forth.
It would be economically destructive to boost woodcutting again since you would not only be able to stash contraband that will continue to generate enormous profit but you would simultaneously be able to cash in on woodcutting in between the times you needed to refill/collect from the contraband. You shouldn't be able to do both.

$100 would be good

It's not really a major buff considering it used to be $200 a piece and I'm suggesting $100
And it's very easy to get bored when woodcutting
Ever since the contraband has changed, almost everyone is doing it. As for woodcutting it is about to die thanks to contraband and its ridiculous amount of generation it produces.
+supporting it or not supporting is kind of useless ;/

The thing is you don’t have a tree in your house so you have to leave to woodcut and the warrant notification is gone so you could be raided without knowing

Don't see an issue with a +$25 increase on it.
Don’t forget to vote on the poll

i dont really see the reason why the initial price got nerfed after all. Sure its not a good rp o have a bunch of people idling, cutting wood the entire time. On the other hand we need to maintain and offer new more realisitc and casual ways to make money. With this community getting older un dealers are not that busy anymore as there are already mmassive arsenals of weapons swapping owners through private deals. The Online Marketplace keeps boooming too. So Vendors etc, are not a relaiable way to make that much money anymore.
This leaves us pretty much wich contraband, petty theft, weed and other crimes as the only convenient method to gain money. Sure Anything thats criminal should reward your risk with a higher pay than legal things would give you.
On the other hand: If criminal actions are the only reliable way to make money, fewer people will become regular vendors or conduct passive rp as a larger part of the playerbased is primarly guided by money and will therefore prefer violent crime above less rewarding passive rp. As they measure their reward by the money they gained rather then the joy they got throuhg an rp (criminal rp can be quite entertaining too)
Whilst wodcutting doesnt boost passive rp, it will at least take some tention out of a economy thats primarly guided by crimnal activites.
Contrafarming aint that entertaining too, as well as locking yourselv in a doomfort with no windows and a bunch of contra aint specificly contributing to a more entertaining and btw realistc rp.
Therefore we need to boost civilian/realistic/legal ways to make money including woodcutting.
However we still need to add new, actually rewarding oppurtunites to passive rp such as a logisitc or an improved public transportation system (see the suggestions regarding logistic or mailman jobs).

There is not a single risk involved with wood cutting. You said it isn't profitable? What do you have to buy to wood cut? An axe is expensive? In the case of steroids, it is an optional purchase that is not needed to wood cut. As stated above by Nevy, when a percentage for success is made, yeah, it seems reasonable to increase the cost, but at the current moment, woodcutting is super easy and doesn't deserve a huge profit count. I just think people are getting mad because they can't make millions of dollars as fast as they used to by doing something that takes minimal effort.
