Some thing need to be done.

Agreed, removing the PNS and making us wait for the mechanic makes no sense, it's like if you do /taxi you can't enter a car anymore untill the taxi comes, let the people decide if they want to RP mechanics or not and the juristriction.. I can't comment on because I just don't get it..

In my opinion the closure of Pay N' Sprays was a smart think,reasons... let me show why i think that.
1- Raising the level of Roleplay in server with different cases that belong to mechanics.
2- Stopping the "Destruction Derby" ramming as hell outside Pay N' Sprays.

About the second point; I wouldn't mind getting rammed after fixing my car because PNS was free. Now you'll have to pay to the mechanic in order to get your car fixed; if right after you fix your car someone rams you I think you'll be pretty "pissed" because you actually wasted money getting it fixed.

I think keeping PNS would be good and I believe Gandalf said that was a misunderstanding and it'll soon get fixed.

Just to make clear, RS5 will certainly be updated and worked on for a long time to come. As you may know, RS4 was worked on and updated for 5 years, and R5 will probably be no different.
By the time 2018 is finishing, we hope that there is something much more exciting available as SA:MP will by that time be where VC is today.

Ah yea.People in 2018 will play GTA 8 MP

1. Nobody will roleplay it, they will just /repair ID
2. Easy way to get people warned and ruin their punishment history for a month, I liked it.

I think they closed it to raise the opportunity for more RP around and to stop rule breaking outside PNSs, which is perfect thing to do if they want that right?
About the payment, it will not be a problem if u meanwhile earn money by working around or making drugs so its kind of the same thing, i don't think paying 250$ (i guess thats maximum payment) will be a BIG problem to be paid.

1- According to what i can read this is a ROLEPLAY server and by doing this it will be more attractive for other players,instead of ramming and making a DD outside a PNS.
2- If u like  to get punished, get in game now flame an admin,get banned, DDoS and say goodbye to the community and u will have your punishment story always full

Well I'm not fully sure about it but I think Gandalf said it wasn't purposely and it'd get fixed soon.

It's not only about the payment but I guess it would be pretty annoying to pay whatever you have to pay to the mechanic and get rammed right after getting your car fixed.
Also Jaka is right about this:

Nobody will roleplay it, they will just /repair ID

[Devin]

The commands do not define the roleplay, the players do.

Whether roleplay is used whilst repairing players cars is up to each of the players and not the restrictions of the commands.
Any command we add can be used without players roleplaying however if you are here to roleplay you would make the effort to roleplay when repairing the other players vehicles.

It seems people are going in circles here for the last 5 pages.

I know, right?

1. The reset was decided when we started to develop RS5 about 3 years ago. As we expected a drop in player count the moment it was announced, it was just never declared in public.

Then you been lying us for 3 years... You always said us you didn't have any decision taken :/.

[Ragdoll]

Then you been lying us for 3 years... You always said us you didn't have any decision taken :/.

Had they announced it or not, the reset was obviously going to happen.

[Kirgiz]

You could've said the same about RS4 release. Don't be so sure.

[Gandalf]

Then you been lying us for 3 years... You always said us you didn't have any decision taken :/.

There was always the option to read in old data, however the design was never made to include it. If we would have designed RS5 to include history, we would have needed to spend a lot of time on ensuring integrity.
While reading in old data and assets was always an option, it was never decided to work on that and with progress it became more clear that not doing it was a huge advantage to everyone except those who are stuck on virtual pixels.
