I'm not 100% sure comm removals/ 6 months have to do with staffing ability. If someone being banned(for any length of time) has to do with their staffing then they will be staff banned or denied staff when they apply.

cant wait for you to come back in a week, dont let the door hit you on the way out!

The server is meant to be fun, not serious RP, being dragged to PD every minute over a $500 fine is cancer and not fun

This isnt a realistic RP server, if you want to book them use the arrest feature built into the server, otherwise fine and move on

small bases arent viable because of the titsrp raiding system, not because of doors or windows or whatever else. Still think more unbreakable windows could be nice

fat pig terrry

Seems kinda basic, but was there consistently a mayor for long enough to get the demands to pop up?

add more drugs that are good for something other than selling, i.e. adrenaline damage reduction could be added but thats something thats already plentiful in the server and realistically a pretty toxic feature gameplay wise.

add basewars raiding with a giant ticking timer in the corner of your screen

I think this is the real issue. If someone kills someone right as they are exiting a base with ents, and then immediately is added to the doors or joins the party, then gives the base back their ents, its obvious that it is loopholing. Idk about now but historically staff refuse to punish any loopholing that the player didnt directly admit to to avoid having forums posts made or dealing with higher ups

Player comes back from not playing for a month and breaks an "unwritten rule" again despite not remembering it exist cause its obscure and quite frankly retarded, and is now banned for it lololol(we need more of this for sure) In the current state unwritten rules are just an excuse to punish people you dislike and a reason to not punish those you like

this has been an issue hope this helps

you are such a silly billy

actually i was gonna flame but you make some good points, namely this, a lot of players(both new and old) cry about how people utilize features to get them changed, without even giving a way to make it better, just complaining saying "erm this needs to be changed cause i dont like it." If you don't like a system then either find a way to work around it, or put up suggestions to actually fix it instead of perma flooding forums and discord with crybaby posts

what does this even mean

can you explain how this is relevant

no one is raiding a new players solo base like this btw

omg sugar and rubik ruined the server so now its dead lolololol also if you look at the same graphs youll see that consistently gmods highest player counts are during july, august(summer) and december

heavy disagree. If you are saying its cyclical then the cycle lasts literally forever as consistent basing has been down for more than 2 years now. Raiding has been made harder with every update to it, and basing has been made less worthwhile as the amount of money it gives for each individual ent has shrunk( anyone who argues that making drugs with 40 plots gives you a lot of money is retarded and ignoring that a 1 person base with proc, print, bitminer, and plots make marginally less than it used to, making it much worse for new players). This has lead to less and less new people basing, and raiding, also leading to old players stopping basing as it's incredibly boring to afk base with no raids ever, and most of the old players dont go to do other stuff on the server, they just completely quit. They then either log on every few days to weeks so they can keep CC items or dont log on for months or years. I think adding back in fun sweps that were very common on old titsrp (2015-2017) could help as that added a ton of variety to raiding and basing aside from just being the same shit over and over. Also almost every change that gets push back is literally just someone saying "raiding is op" "no its not" yes it is" "okay then raid me" "no i wont" and thats the entire convo on loop 24/7. If the change was actually good no one would argue with it.

If they are never raided they will never know that they dont know how to base properly and keep doing what they are doing. A lot of new players just have subway surfer brainrot and actively choose to not learn how to base after being raided a few (or one) times. Saying that people only stick around when not being raided is silly considering all of us were new players once. I would be raided on cooldown by players who were better than me multiple years ago but I chose to keep playing. If new players don't want to do this then no amount of letting them base for free will make them actually want to deal with raiding later on when they do have money. Also buff raiding and access to raiding tools.

Ego-maniac loser crybaby alert

because it is part of the server. He also is using the excuse of "I asked for -rep" which he only started doing at around -80 rep.

when you are in an area with a high render tax ( anytime you are raiding and they have ents and smokes and bombs are going off) opening inventory makes anyone frame drop. Players with aircraft carriers for pcs have this issue.

erm okay
