Getting Los Santos more crowded

[OmaR_RuLeZx]

But still it would suck to have San Fierro and Las Venturas empty, It would be best for the players to spread around the map.

The only solution here is for the player count in-general to increase and not have everybody in 1 city. It's just that 30 players is a low number of players for a RolePlay server especially here which as Mikal said

All the civilians are at Angel Pine.

There are two main reasons Gvardia chose to base itself in San Fierro:

1. To bring activity into San Fierro
2. To avoid the cesspool of chaos and excessive police presence in Los Santos


I recall a situation I had with TeaM_Louise and Koneko_Forlenza when there were like 8 players online in the middle of the night (UTC -5). Louise and I were on fireman duty bored waiting for a fire to happen. I jokingly suggested that I call someone to help us start us a fire - because after all, we gotta get paid somehow! Briefly, it went a little like this...
Me: "Man, is somebody going to start a fire, or am I going to have to do it myself?"
Louise: "Right?"
Me: "You know what? I can call someone right now who will light a damn fire for us."
Louise: "Do it."
Me: "Okay." *Calls Koneko.*
Louise: /lol

So we brought some gasoline and kerosene to the pump at LSPD, soaked the place up, and lit it up, cracking stupid jokes throughout. During this roleplay one other guy I forget the name of who wasn't initially involved joined in. It was an interesting way to kill time - now if only a fire had actually started at LSPD not long after

Anyway, my point is, crowding up one particular location isn't going to fix anything IMO. Those who want to roleplay will find it, or otherwise create it - even when there's 10 players online. And those who happen to see it are likely to get involved as well. Don't wait for a solution - be the solution.

We are trying to get people out of LS and this guy starts complaining there isn't enough. Good grief!

Still a missing sidejob in SF...

Or to encourage people to move to LS, we could have one day a week where all crime is legal outside of LS for 12 hours. All police, fire, and medical services outside LS will be shut down for the said duration. Government officials above rank 8 and individuals inside the boundary of LS may not be harmed, and the usage of explosives and weapons above class 3 shall be prohibited.

We shall cleanse all the evil within us. Blessed be the new SA:MP Developers. Blessed be Argonath, a community reborn.

If that's what you want.

How about we stop arguing and settle on relocating everyone to Bone County? 

[TheGreasyChopper]

Fuck Los Santos.

How about we stop arguing and settle on relocating everyone to Bone County? 

Please, no. There's a reason some of us moved out to Bone County and that is to avoid the bullshit from other areas. When AOD moved to Fort Carson last year there were only CIA and MGI in Bone County, noone else. We had the freedom to do anything and interact with everyone whenever we needed to. But we had no sultans full of armored MAFIA to provide us with QUALITY ROLEPLAY. There's no FLA and SAPD fighting or anything. You gotta find a way to bring people to Los Santos one way or another, and it's not via posting on forums.

Gonna give the Fort Carson example again, when AOD moved there, the town had the PD, Hospital, Bar and Motel. Aside from a few other houses there was nothing. Eventually a Binco,Furniture Store, Gym, Barber Shop, Tattoo Studio even a Bank showed up. And they were bought by people in no time and there was interaction between people. People just came over you know...

Personally I find nothing in LS to make me wanna move there. Sure there's gang "roleplay" but judging from most posts on the group topics it's just brawls and shootouts between the two sides. Can't really believe it will be much different with more people in Los Santos.

Couldn't have summed it up better.

lol.


Anyway, I actually still believe that this would work. The best arguement I've seen so far is that Los Santos is 'chaos' because most people are there. That means that the community itself isn't able to find a way to interact without issues occuring.

That's mainly caused because of your egoism.
I wouldn't mind having my group based between lots of people; I'd actually work harder so I motivate them to improve instead of moving elsewhere and limit my roleplay within 'good roleplayers'. We as a group have been in El Corona as well, where shitstorms of newbies visited us daily, and if it wasn't more than half of them hacking and ruining our roleplay we wouldn't move to ELS.

You people choose to distance yourselves from others just because they are not as decent as you consider yourselves, and that's clearly distancing the community's members from each other. When I returned I thought the 'changes' had actually changed something, but no, the cast of mind of most players is the same, and that has to change.

Let me have my opinion and have yours, but in the end there's a reason the server can't reach 50 players online and so many veterans left again even when they tried to do something in RS5. Also don't focus so much on 'LOS SANTOS' - it can be any other part of the map, but I chose to suggest it because of this:

Los Santos has the GREATEST advantage as it is as far as population, resources, economy, interactions, roleplays, jobs, etc.

LS is the best city in GTA San Andreas. I'd rather stay in LS than any other city.

No dude, let's have a project in Flint, one in Fort Carson, and one in each big city. And never reach 40 players, we'll have too much roleplay!!

And how will getting Los Santos "more crowded" gonna bring more people to the server if I may ask?

I'll tell you.

More interaction and more roleplay in the server will surely make it better. It may even make Argonath an actual roleplay server. Two big roleplays every week is not what happens in a roleplay server. With this happening, old players who've left may find a good reason to stay once they return, and new players who are interested in roleplaying will stay instead of laughing at us and go to LSRP or any other server.

The projects that have started in other cities are really decent and bring more opportunities, but it's not the right time for the. A server with 30 players cannot be a roleplay server with groups so distanced.
