Lets get real.

Yes but it's kinda hard to sit back and relax when you lost everything, you can barely do anything and all you m8s left because of this.

If you plan on sitting back and relaxing, what would you do? Surely that doesn't mean going into the server, AFK'ing, and leaning back in your chair while you watch the world go by...

I'd assume you would be doing something that would be furthering your roleplay experience while in the server, relaxing. Even if you don't intend to, it is still being done any time you roleplay with another person. It is just your decisions which decide how much or how little you earn from it in terms of money, experience, and fun.

I could go to my house, I could /load 100 deagle, I could take my own car and go to my friend and then we went somewere and shot the sky.
Now everyone left cause of having a chance of doing it again, we need to farm firemission every 20 min to have a chance of getting money and most stuff are still bugged and that is no fun. For you it might be, but not for the 100 people that "moved on".

...we need to farm firemission every 20 min to have a chance of getting money...

There is your mistake. You wish to misuse an existing system to get money you think you need to have fun, instead of just roleplaying it all out and having a good time doing the same, exact thing you wanted to do.

Money isn't required for everything. There are also plenty of other ways of getting it. People just don't want to use their imaginations because there aren't scripts that exist for these ideas...

Oh I'm sorry hasn't management said the current fireman system is actually to inject money into the economy?

I agree with this point in particular. However, I also have to point out that in the current state of things, the injection of money into the economy is needed to finally get the system going. You can have a really good engine (gamemode) and parts (players), but you can't get it going without the right oil.

Haven't they also said that it is not there simply to earn money, but to be a roleplaying mechanism? Oh wait, I forgot...everyone just plays here for greed. It isn't a roleplay server.

Come on now. If you really think the scripted systems are there purely for money, then you are sadly mistaken. They are there to give a monetary incentive for roleplays that are successful, yes, but not just so you can walk up, accept the challenge, and walk away rich. That is not the point as to why they exist. If you are just playing here to earn as much money as you can, then you are playing on the wrong gamemode...

Then they can do it properly. There is no need to abuse anything just to "jumpstart the server". They could easily roleplay out the scenarios like they are supposed to while earning the money.

Noone will give you cash for RPing, because noone has the cash to give you.
Still not sure how making money as fireman is abuse. It's just the only source for people to get a decent ammount of money.

It's not fun to pretend that you have fireman skin, that you have imagionary exstinguisher and that you're spraying imagionary fire.
Same as it's not fun to drive a blista and pretend that you're driving an infernus.

People want visual objects and script is there to provide that.

And people could close their eyes when dreaming.

Most people do. The sad part is that none of them wish to even try opening their eyes.

Just lol

What do you want me to do? Sell weed to the other 3 AFK players?

You could always ask your friends to get online so you can roleplay with them. Communication is a wonderful tool.

But the thing is, nobody wants to go online because of - RS5

In a gamemode that took years to script, I expect being able to actually send money, not just pretend I did.
