Group Script

It is next to impossible to get all possible clantags to show up

That's why I posted the idea in this topic. It's a reason to implement James' original idea of some kind of group recognition, so the server is aware of all the registered groups and their tags.

As for specific gangs skins, I don't like it. That screws over newer players by giving regulars access to something they cannot access

I wouldn't say it "screws over" newer players. I think you're being way too conservative. Firstly, the skins would be supplied by the gangs themselves (if accepted by devs). If a new player wanted to start his own crew and had a custom skin that was acceptable, I'm sure the devs would support him as long as he was able to convince his group was active etc. Secondly, regular players should have more access than new players, it's a completely normal concept for any roleplay server. Can a new player buy a brand new Stinger? Or a Mnasion on Starfish Island? Does a new player have access to sell Cocaine/Heroin on the Black Market?

You want graffitis? Make the graffiti properly and talk with Marcell about it's possible implementation.

There are better ways we can do graffiti.

Eh, I wouldn't like seeing gang specific skins, especially since those would be sold at all clothes shops and would still be available for anyone to use. We already have a system where if someone makes a sick skin or few, he can talk with managers about getting them implemented to the server.

Same is with graffitis, but obviously there is a limit to how much we can / will add to the server so the download for a first time player doesn't get too massive (people with 256 kbps internet is pretty common in VC:MP)

Obviously if a skin was gang specific, it wouldn't be found in clothes shops, just like it is currently with VCPD specific skins.
