Why aren't you playing (pt 2)

From an rp standpoint, and I know I speak for players like @Garret_Pp and others who have left over the years for the same reason when I say that the there is very little rp left in the server. This isnt an issue with administration or rules, but rather the playerbase and the stigma around certain aspects that isnt going around raiding or growing. Its not hard to see this, players who are mainly cop are treated like scum and players who play RC are seen as minges and are to be avoided. Hell, these stereotypes are so bad it affects players in and out of the game, and as a result everyone who took this server even remotely seriously left and found different communities. I think this all ties into the general toxicity of the server but that requires a whole shitload of things that need work that other members of the community will explain in this thread. Generally, if the community decides to forgive and forget and realise that not everything here is a personal attack maybe we can have the title of "serious rp"
 
I feel like we have legal opportunities, but everyone can do everything so making a shop, while can be rewarding at times, is redundant and a waste of time since everyone already does things themselves.
 
I can see the point, but counterpoint: Wouldn't it just cause more shootouts, resulting in more cops being annoyed, resulting in more AR's, resulting in more toxicity?
 
To be fair, adding onto your point Garry's Mod in general has started to loose it's player base and the community that was intended for Garry's Mod (large variety in well made, unique and custom gamemodes) has dwindled to an unbelievable point. I am genuinely ashamed and upset how the whole community has ended up to be honest. Facepunch dying was the last lifeline for the game in my opinion. I remember actually struggling to make it into a Jailbreak server due to how high in demand they were and how every community had a unique take on the game mode overall. Now I hardly even see one server half full and it is all poorly maintained gamemodes and communities. I believe that things can be done to draw more players into PERPHeads again but at the same time there is only so much that can be done.

Having run multiple gamemodes and communities myself in the past I have this to say: I had more success running a shitty poorly coded and cheaply hosted server earlier on compared to when I actually learnt to properly code and made clean and sleek gamemodes in the more recent years.

Seeing that some people have bought up concerns about the lack of Roleplay that takes place on the Server it does need some attention. Garret and his concerts in the back of a Subs house were a highlight, a player that built a bar in Stonehenge and players camping there as well. People tend to do situations just to do something different from time to time, but getting these props costs quite a bit of money as certain items cost more money than others. There needs to be something in place that allows and benefits people when RP'ing, like a system that allows points to be given to players that unlock benefits that can be used to get better items or increase certain aspects, players can also recommend other players that they have seen just the RAP thread. One last thing is people that interfere with situations and ruin them as well just to get a laugh and think its perfectly okay to do this. I had to get Staff to watch over situations I did and stop people from hitting everything not frozen in place. Weird how people want more Roleplay situations yet ruin them and put people off from doing them again.
 
it was called Onlyfans you smelly foreigner, and it's been deleted now

sad react only
 
Roleplaying also sucks you in and ends up making you engrossed into the game when it is done properly. Most of the time I end up staying up late and missing my alarm on the morning is when I have had a good laugh with people where the events that are transpiring are so enjoyable that I genuinely forget about what is going on around me.
 
Too scared to just keep minges perm banned. I'd rather have 30 active players who actually RP than 80 who don't even know what RP is.

There's several players who I've seen have multiple bans for ruining RP sits yet they still get unbanned.


Also I can give 3 examples at least from the top of my head, I'll DM the names but I'd rather not catch a forum warning for slander.
 
I wanna just gon head and add my two cents here about the legal opportunities, not really gon talk bout the other stuff due to the lack of time i have.


Legal opportunities
The reason why i mainly wanna focus on this topic is because, growing can be really boring and the amount of time invested on it just not worth it in my opinion. i know the devs took time and made the meth system better which i am grateful for. but other than just spending hours and hours holding a gun and standing behind a barricade protecting drugs. i believe some people would like to actually GRIND for their shit, you know? be active. yall been sleeping on stone henge, add a mining job. make the players buy pick axes and a container and then get to mining, OR become a lumberjack. the forest been lonely for quite a while, let people buy hatchets from uncle cos and buy like a little container and cut down trees for money. Overall this would be great for new players to get a headstart on the server.
 
perpheads is not a serious roleplay server. any server with voice enabled cannot possibly be labelled a serious roleplay server, it's semi serious at best

i stopped playing because most players are either: very toxic and get hard over getting kills on perpheads, report you for 3.4 over everything and cry over everything or are a mix of the two, it's rare to find a player that isn't one or another.

also, 3.4 is way too strict of a rule for a voice RP server. who cares if you shot a cop over a 2-3 year sentence, and ESPECIALLY just evading a cop for a sentence? i can get not pulling a gun under gunpoint but when it's like "Nah Bro you Riskin' Prison Time" it's pretty dumb and demotivating, 3.4 needs to be more of a relaxed rule for a voice rp server about having fun, it'd be different if it were a serious text-based server about developing a charractacter

i know i'm not following the "5 topics" but i just wanted to address this

if i'm talking about the "5 topics", there's not enough to do. all you can do to make money is grow or do jobs like cop which some don't enjoy. there needs to be more ways to make money

ALSO REMOVE MARKSMANSHIP no one likes that

(re add the bazaar music too please i was never around for it but its very catchy)
