I had an idea for a job, basically a car collector or "repoman" if you want to call it that.

You would go on duty, which would give you a mechanic type skin and a semi truck.

You would go around and look for abandoned vehicles, if the vehicle had 0 hp then you could "respawn" the vehicle and earn $200.

This job would help keep the streets nice and clean from abandoned cars, and would provide more cars for new players to use as they would be getting respawned more often.

If the car wasnt completely dead yet, then maybe they could move the car into a parking stall or move it out of the road to a safe place.

Maybe this could be an addition to the towtrucking job (repairing broken cars)?

Giving you two options; to either fix it (for a player that is near to you) or respawning it (if no-one is around)

It's not bad to make a mistake. It's what you do after, that's important.
What is messed up is your perception of IV:MP. Probably because they do not allow guys without balls there.

In addition to both of yours ideas I think you also should be allowed to carry an amount of emergency fuel that allows you to fuel up the persons who are in need of fuel, they should be given a small amount so they can go to the nearest gas station to fill up.

Currently inactive because of work, coming back when I find more time to IV:MP..

The point was to offer something beneficial to the player and the server at the same time.

A payout to the player for services rendered.

Less vehicles broken down cluttering up the server and roadways.

More respawned vehicles for new players.

There are lots of things that you can RP here, this suggestion was meant to offer something more than to just "RP it".

That little sentence you just wrote can be said to almost every idea, if you think in that way then let me ask you, why do we have scripted cop work when you could just RP being an officer of the law? This idea was thought by him in addition to the jobs that maybe should and could be implanted in the server so I don't understand why you just write "RP it" while you don't even argue for it or give ,positive or negative critics. This idea got my support as this could be one of the future jobs to be added as I see no problems with this!, full suport..

Unfortunately on argonath we have those players which we define as "trolls" and he is one of them with their two word posts as you can see "RP it". If they insist on Roleplaying everything, they should not ask for script support for criminals although they still do when they should do as they say, "RP IT!".  ;)

This is a good idea, but without the respawning part. It should be done by administration.

So you define JDC and "Troll"
The only thing i'll say, this can be fucking role played... Get a damn Tow truck or semi truck(w/e you call it)
And find for abandoned cars. Saying that "We will earn money from this" is like admitting that you are money hungry...

Thank you for your input Charlie, though as you are not a regular on IV:MP your opinion on the matter really carries no merit.

Log in and play with us a bit, RP with us, have fun, and become more familiar with the IV:MP server. Maybe then you will understand why I made the suggestion for this job.

If you understood what he meant by this topic is to have a scriptable job where you can get an income, who will go tow cars away if they get nothing for it?
Yes you can role play it, but you wont earn anything and he suggested a job where you can at least get some form of income.

You, sir, fail...


For your "f**king" intelligence (I like to lower my level to yours), Charlie - who hasn't ever showed up on any IV:MP server and makes it even more obvious that he doesn't even know what cars GTA IV has - IV:MP (nor GTA IV) has a towtruck. Only one of the expansion packs has one, but you can't use it. And before you say "see, it does have them".. IV:MP doesn't run on expansion packs!

Not being a Member throws me out of the discussion? Cheap.
IF you had imagination, and you are eager to RP, you won't care about scripts. Money is just an excuse to play...

Money yes, you won't get it if you RP it. But everyone is here to play, Not to f**king earn money...

As you can f**king see, i myself here admitted that i don't know what you call it...
You, sir, fail...

And for that..
