The server shouldn't and should never have been about feeling a sense of progression when it comes to objects like cars, guns or drugs. If it truly was about RP then all of this would mostly have been on a level field, all cars would be mostly realistically the same, supercars still just about beating standard and sportscars.
And making guns cheaper by about 25-40% would do wonders for how people value dead objects over themselves. Nowadays IAs and ARs are thrown all over the place because someone confiscated/stole something when apparently it wasn't allowed, hell, even the officer might not have even noticed that... And still a bunch of people including myself create these reports because they lost something, and it just so happens that the rules were in your favor, it's gotten to the point where the words AR and IA is part of my phone's dictionary. I feel that a staff members job on top of moderating should be to teach the offender where, how and why they went wrong.
Coming back to the sense of progression thing I mentioned earlier, it should have been a roleplay thing, you'd feel yourself getting forward just by community interaction alone, that's the feeling that should drive you to coming back on the server. I stopped playing as much as I used to because I stopped valuing dead objects completely, you hear me scream as a cop as you're shooting me because I'd rather stay alive instead of sitting at a black screen for 5 minutes, have the situation over with and back on patrol, stopping speeders, solve traffic accident situations and deal with road closures and perimeters. I feel no satisfaction in confiscating random things, I make my montages mainly about the small amount of community interaction I'm able to get, because of the way the community is right now.
I said I didn't care if the server went through a full reset outside of playtime, because of what I said earlier about dead things, though I'd like keep my playtime because it reminds me of how long I've been here and of all the changes that I've witnessed. But these are my two cents on the matter.
