RE: LimeLight is Boring. - Montyfatcat - Apr 28, 2020 @Vauld It's more along the lines of this:

Too many people focus on script instead of roleplay. For a Serial Killer RP you don't need to actually kill players. The first few kills can be ragdolls and then you have the opportunity to provide an interesting backstory, get people involved and then people might be OK with being Serial Killed. Blackout has done a few RPs like this and they work very well. He's even had people consent OOC to be victims.

This is exactly what I did the other day with Oneshott and Ketchup. I roleplayed having barrels in my vehicle and got pulled over, The police found out I had bodies in the barrels. No players were killed and was alot of fun. Just feels like people are not so interested in joining roleplays and that's one of the main issues.

In my almost 7 years of moderating/administrating at FL and LL I've come across many situations where spontaneous RPs really brought life to the server. I enjoyed those spontaneous country rps such as hobo RP and alike where parts of Industrial/suburbs were like ghettos. People were afraid to enter those areas and local news reporters (citizens) would keep the public posted while securing an exclusive interview with those groups. The whole server would adapt to that unseen situation and it was great. (Apr 27, 2020, 11:05 PM)ForceGhost Wrote:Quote:(Apr 27, 2020, 06:38 PM)ForceGhost Wrote: Rules need to be revamped. After all we are a semi-serious server thus taking vehicle access for running red lights is stupid imho. It's an IC matter and cops must deal with it. 2 weeks pte for simply building something that small (fishery) is weird too. I'd get it if that build was interrupting other rps and/or stressing the server too much. Now I'm not familiar with your case and am not going to question the executing staff members decision, I am just generally speaking. Restricting V access for stealing vehicles by using a tow truck is reasonable. I think I would have taken it away too, mainly because a tow service owner/worker should not abuse their functions. Now if a civilian stole that tow-truck and decided to steal other cars with it, that wouldn't be failRP imo, simply because there is now context to this situation. We just had a staff meeting two days ago and I wished your points were brought up earlier @Vauld . Nonetheless I am grateful you all voiced your concerns because it shows you still care. I respect that and appreciate. Thank you. Maybe a community meeting would be the next right step or similiar. Like I said, I haven't been active in-game for a while now (mostly due to the backend part I'm dealing with), so I can't really judge the current situation. I can only read your reports, assess them for myself, put my experience into that assessment and form an opinion. Once thank you all for raising your concerns and keep voicing them.

RE: LimeLight is Boring. - Catfish - Apr 28, 2020 Now here are my thoughts on things to possibly change, and as always, I’d love to hear feedback. - Car theft rules. Like I said previously, cars get stolen all the time for the purpose of having a vehicle that cannot be traced back to the suspect. They commit a crime, and dump the car. In my opinion, this is completely acceptable, and should be allowed. - The “Cop Baiting” rule. There is a fine line between whipping through Main St. at 100mph and going 10mph over. Speeding is not necessarily cop baiting, but I can understand the confusion. If you want to ensure the people aren’t cop baiting, perhaps have a license system. Something like if you pull them over for speeding, and you decide to give them a citation, it takes a point off your license. After three tickets in a certain amount of time, the license is suspended, and you have to pay to get it validated. - FearRP. Honestly, I’ve found the FearRP rule to be quite restricting. To put it simply, if I pull over a car, and dude hops out of car with a gun, you bet your ass I am too. That is not me disregarding my life, that’s me protecting it. Now granted, if you’re severely outnumbered and outgunned, then yes, you’re likely going to give up. Same goes for civilians though, if you ran over somebody in the mafia, and now the mafia has their guns out telling you to get in their car, you know you’re going to die. At that point I see no problem with attempting an escape. My point for that is if FearRP is truly about valuing your own life, it should be changed (IMO). Waving that white flag when the guns come out is not always valuing your own life. As for racism, I agree with @Theo. I’ve never seen a Roleplay increased in quality because somebody dropped the hard r. RE: LimeLight is Boring. - Lord Octagon - Apr 28, 2020 "Lmao it's just another wy-sec gang bang here" - Stell after the 1000th RP group @Judge Rage and I set up. Player turnover is the issue. If you want people to stay, you've got to keep them interested and I don't mean with more content (pls you're killing my poor computer) but rather stop restricting RP. Oh, and did I mention stop adding useless performance-killing content? Takes me 3 hours to load into the server, that's off-putting.

Lack of new players, lack of any fucking roleplay whatsoever, the bureaucratic attitude of the staff team where they can't make any changes to the server or ban any players who are toxic and making shit not fun for other players without going through a magical committee in their internal team discord, the contents of which will never be revealed because muh secrecy despite the community being founded on the basis of transparency (and if you tell me to apply for a community feedback role, fuck off I shouldn't have to).

But in reality, most government members wouldn't support this sort of dictatorship so the president would have to do a lot of work to first convince the government to 1. Not overthrow him and 2. Enforce his laws. Both of those are difficult and have already created a ton of roleplay. If these two objectives are not met then two things will happen. The government takes down the president themselves ( A lot of roleplay and quite easy ) And/or the government doesn't enforce any ridiculous laws and therefore players' roleplay isn't affected. Although these things will happen, the problem is at the moment we allow this to happen with the rules. " Oh no my dictator roleplay was ruined and I died" Well you should have been a better dictator and ensured you had enough support. Then the whole community would adapt and become more interesting.
