this seems to be a hot take but I am actually for the queue monetization. Let me explain..
I understand queue being about effort instead of ease of access is favorable for some. While others might prefer the ease of access.
My thoughts are pertaining to a few key points surrounding the idea of monetization:
1) Developers and management are working to maintain this operation. Monetization rewards them for that work without upsetting a balance in the game itself but the few members who love the game and want to support it through monetary means rather than taking up a staff position.
2) Queue is nowhere near as crazy as FIVEM. FiveM servers can go up crazy numbers, but PERPHeads is a very niche thing that long queue waits are non-issue.
3) Those who own priority will probably have premium. This double-stacked commitment will deter even more people from breaking rules because there is even more risk to such misconduct.
4) This opens a door for other forms of priority as a question too.
* Priority can be given out to good roleplayers too, not just those with fat pockets or the ability to staff.
* Priority for cops who clock in a lot of hours regularly or hold a certain rank (Supervisor+).
These selective forms of prio are tangible rewards that incentivize people to contribute to the community, which are things that successful FiveM communities already do. I am aware FiveM is not PERPHeads, and I say this with a grain of salt because logically it looks sound as a beneficial addition.
