mobile devices also don't show percentage of battery left.
They do if you want them to do :D.

But yea I don't get the point of seeing the fuel in text, as dobby said:

They go red, or close to red = you need to fuel. Not that hard m8.

Well if I can give you a hand translating them into romanian I would be pleased to do it :)

There will be no "abuse" of spike strips, since its an object. The tire popping would likely be done server side (like it is already). Just a simple GetPlayerWantedLevel allows us to check if they're wanted or not. To everyone else it'll just be a normal object in the road. We could either assign it an ID and remove it after X seconds, or when the player goes out of distance from the spike strip itself (IE: cop places spike strip, drives off it goes).

It would likely be heavily restrictive as to encourage cops to get off their asses instead of sitting and waiting for wanted players to approach them. Once every 120 seconds and the spike strip itself lasts 60 seconds before its destroyed. Each car would carry, say a max of 10. This will be displayed on the speedometer alongside fuel and what not.





Staff will never get any form of auto payment system for their staff role. Its basically bribing them to come on just for money. They should WANT to play the server rather than HAVE to.




Perhaps there could be a way for staff members (mods & admins) to host events every week/two weeks:
  • Carshow (prizes for 1st, 2nd 3rd and craziest car?)
  • Biggest Convoy? (IE: win 50k and X convoy score for hosting the biggest convoy of the week).
  • Donor points: I like this idea, perhaps we could add some more skins/sounds exclusive for the donator points. Donator points can be earned via donations and can't be shared between accounts. 2 euro for 30 days VIP + 100 donor points. Plus the usual extras if you donate more. Unsure if these would stay or not along with VIP being permanent (this would likely be down to VIP's)
  • Frequent discounts on houses and cars: Two commands /cutprices (type = car, house) [amount]. Allows admins to cut the house prices by a percentage for 24 hours. So it encourages people to buy cars/houses more :) its fun.
I love your ideas, It would be more than awesome if they would actually be availible ingame.

So what I am suggesting for now is just an idea, it can be changed I'm just giving the basic idea.

I was thinking that only by giving the admins an impulse to be more active in game they will actually be( I guess), you can do that by actually giving them a monthly payment based on their playtime in that month like:
Let's say you have got a  total of 50 hours played in the month April. If you get at least 100k - 50k/ hour spent in game I bet they will come online alot more than they do now.
I don't think this will happen, nobody will pay you for playing on the server, nor if you are admin. Mick pays for the server hosting, that's enough.

I'm prett sure i didn't talked about real money but ingame money ...

About guys which already got all they want(house/cars, etc..), big score, and no need of money, well no problem the money they have to receive can be noted down somewhere in the forum or a special bank(you can name rename it however you would like to do) could be created where they can deposit money which will be used in events that are going to be hold weekly or that are going to be used in any way you want but for the players, ONLY FOR THEM, or just games like go to the Special Bank point at "blabla store, or bank or house or you just can use the 3 banks IN SF-LV-LS + the island ones if you want and the point they will have to go on will be randomly chosen" and type the following code "a random generated code" - you will have a chance to win from let's say 1% to 15% of the money that are in the "special bank" in that moment, first one who types the code in will get it, remember "special bank" can only get money lodged in by staff members ONLY from their payments and not from their work/borrowed and etc. This can make players get excited and like it very much and actually call out their friend on the server.
And create an activity thread that tracks down the playtime of the staff members weekly, that thread will be updated by a nominated staff member every week.

Yea about donating, there is no point in donating at the moment, like what ? only for VIP which gives you nothing, I tought of when you donate you get some "donor points" let's say which you can spend in shop, you will be able to spend those donor points on:
VIP rank - X donor points
"X" ammount of money - X donor points and so on.
(you can give ideas for what to add here)

And an idea which Dobby mentioned ingame, spike strips for cops, but it would be more interesting if the cops can only use it when the nearest suspect has 3 stars +.

I know this is not something usual but worths giving it a try.

I skyped sometimes with him
So far I know CT doesn't own Skype or any other things so they can't take decissions that are being taken over skype. It only has to be an in-game / on-forum chat.

Not sure if my post means something but that doesn't show to me like scamming, did he asked you for money that he will give back to you in a period of time ? Because donating to a club is what you decide, you are not being forced to do it. So unless he hasn't asked you for the money and promissed you to give them back to you I don't see any scamming in there. If you got any screens of him telling you he will give your money back if you donate on his club or something like that post them too. Sorry if I was wrong.

Ban Appeals / Re: Harvey ban appeal
March 26, 2015, 12:29
Sorry that I posted here, but as I see he was already past the half of that bridge, he could've simply use CC as he had speed before entering the bridge and when you get past the half of that bridge your car/truck/bus doesn't matter what car you do have can accelerate. I was doing the same and I never used hacks. Sorry again for the post, and sorry if it is useless.

Ban Appeals / Re: Dragos. ban appeal
January 16, 2015, 11:34
Heya,i actually have to say that the one who advertised it's not the real Dragos who used to have 10 or 11 achievements and whom account was deleted cause of 180 days of not logging in,i took a look ingame by adding him to my phone contacts and i saw the one who advertised has 0 score and was online on the server only for 2 minutes i guess the time he spent to advertise,the one who made this ban appeal had 10 or 11 achievements 1 year ago or so. Please do something about it as you have banned the wrong guy for ban evading.
