  1. +1 Was going to say neutral... I think this would be a great idea but Garnet said implementation would be downright ridiculous due to him needing to whitelist every class in the PD vault. Alternatively however, what if he just blacklisted the classes that shouldn't raid the vault? I haven't seen the code but from a theoretical standpoint I think it would work.
  2. +1 this is one of the most iconic lines and would be a great addition When I was doing this roleplay, I spawned in a Trashcan, bought a shipment of Water cans from the Bartender, and then swapped to PD. When someone would walk close enough I'd hit them with the line and if they didn't cooperate (in an RP way - i.e. "fuck you pig!") I'd stun stick them I had the voiceline on a soundboard but with it ingame that would be even easier for everyone
  3. M95 dragon. Does more dmg than Dlore, has 5 in it's clip, just doesn't have pinpoint noscope accuracy. It's also cheaper than the Dlore. It's the only sniper that can consistently 1 shot people with perks not on a headshot, making it the most powerful sniper in the game.
  4. I was under the impression that CS:GO and Garry's Mod are different games. Your "additional information" shows one of the top 5 highest rated eSports games has, as of last month, nerfed the AWP sniper. Garry's Mod should not be subject to change because the developers of a competitive shooter deemed it so. That logic simply doesn't hold up. Your entire reasoning is that "CS:GO did it so we should too" but that's foolish. "If CS:GO itself feels that the Dragonlore/AWP needed its magazine size reduced, then it's pretty safe to say that reducing the ammo on DarkRP would both help keep the accuracy of the CS:GO weapon and improve the overall balance of the server." like CS:GO is some guy who decides what happens in the Garnet Gaming DarkRP server --- Regardless, the AW50 already exists in DarkRP. The AW50 (being the AWP that CS:GO nerfed - as skins are cosmetic in that entirely different game), and the Dragonlore sniper being a separate 30$ beatstick for donators. These are separate weapons with separate power as one is a standard sniper that anyone can get and one represents "the most expensive/godly sniper" which has had 10 rounds in it's clip for ages. I won't even bring up any other points as there are no other points to this suggestion.... just "CS:GO did it and we should too!" TL;DR: I don't think competitive shooter titles making balance changes (which happens much more than GG) should affect donator weapons on Garnet Gaming Dark Roleplay.
  5. Exactly, I don't see a reason to make this any worse. Adding actual theft into the game when people are legitimately paying for credits on the store ( @ChrisRid you can't tell me you've never seen someone pay for credits on the store) seems excessive. If I'm not going to be able to play on my main without a constant 2million target on my head I'll be on an alt or not playing at all. I know there isn't anyone else who's prestige 20 but if there was I'm sure they'd agree with me. I don't think there's anything wrong with the current mugging system either. It's been around for ages and is about as vanilla as a mugging system can get.
  6. -1 to OP and to Chris's counter-suggestion I already have a hard enough time trying to come on and RP as it is being Prestige 20. If I try to RP with some new players, before I can even say anything "OMG PRESTIGE 20 HEY BRO CAN I HAVE SOME MONEY" etc. etc. etc.... A perpetual 200K target on my head won't help. I can see people who aren't highly prestiged +1ing this suggestion. I got to my level back when Prestiging got you nothing. No hats, no points, nothing. If I could go back and never prestige I would. I would rather be able to hide prestige levels than be worth 200K+ to any thief who sees me. So for the people who are +1ing this, consider that his is how much currency costs in the store: If I saw someone walking around that was worth 8$, I would nonstop be trying to mug that person. I don't think this is a good idea overall. This is just a punishment for progression.
  7. +1 ˳˚॰°ₒ৹gulugulugulug˳˚॰°ₒ৹๐
  8. +1 simple and low-effort. I have instructed many people on this very subject as well and if this being in the description helps people understand without having to hope someone is willing to help them then why not?
  9. -1 Level 20 is too easy to get and abuse AdvDupe2 with. Maybe something for if you get prestige 1/2 without AdvDupe to "earn" it but that would be quite rare. It's actually easier + faster to earn ingame and trade for VIP than that, plus it helps support the server, which is the point behind donating.
  10. +1 This would make bailing during a lockdown less of a slap-in-the-face to Cops but more of a payday. Maybe not the whole amount, but it wouldn't make sense to exclude bail money from the vault. Added benefit is, that when someone sees a lot of bails happening in chat, that might cause a large-scale PD raid. I can't think of any negatives.
  11. +1 even though sex time is a little low you have great referrals and well-written paragraphs, as well as staff experience outside of GG. I'm sure you'll make a great addition to the staff team.
  12. -1 Love ya Doge but you don't have your playtime listed and your paragraphs aren't paragraphs. Need 4 sentences each paragraph for it to qualify. Not listing your playtime and instead putting "[REDACTED] at the time of writing this" along with your hidden disclaimer at the end of your app "(i decided to reapply after some guy tried to raid my base with a prop in front of it smh)" makes this feel a bit rushed and insincere.
  13. +1 Hoal is a tier of excellency all on his own. I have no doubts he will excel as a staff once more.
  14. aj bread head

  15. 69 rep? nice

      Honestly I agree!

  17. Fantastic idea, and as you said there's no downsides. Would actually provide a reason to RP as a baser, and would make bases more interesting all around by having an actual roleplay storefront/restaurant to interact with instead of a street full of impenetrable blast doors.
  18. This sounds basically perfect
  19. +1 I didn't even really need to read it, add Gordon
  20. The gun doesn't go away after an hour, it stops respawning after about ~90 minutes. Meaning that you continue to spawn back with it for that long. If you're able to hold your base the entire time, you're able to keep the gun until you die. The Credits system was designed for people who are unable to financially support the server are able to obtain these items in other ways. One of the most common methods would be to AFK overnight so that by the time you wake up you have "free" credits. This helps boost the server population during late nights and qualifies as supporting the server, which is why the Dragon Lore is available in this way. Alternatively, many of the people I know (myself included) have used ingame currency to purchase a Dragonlore by selling that ingame currency for credits/the item itself. During a non-sale period, you're looking at around 15 million (though it could be more or less depending who you find) without having to actually pay any money yourself. You get a weapon, Garnet gets his donation, player gets their money, everyone wins. Lastly, you're able to obtain these items from Gambling crates from !unbox. I'll say now that this isn't very sustainable, but if you're opening boxes and content with the other drops this is an effective way to gain an arsenal without having to pay physical money. All that is to say I cannot support the suggestion of lowering the effectiveness of this gun. It's been this way for ages and still lends itself to higher-skilled players. If you're able to scope effectively, there are stronger snipers than the DLore, however it is unparalleled in noscope effectiveness so I do agree it is the most dominant weapon in the game. However, with all of the options for any player to be able to use it, temporarily or permanently, I don't think it's an outright necessity nor do I think weakening prior donation items is a good strategy. A base built for the USAS is only behind in DPS by about a second tops, and many other automatic weapons make quick work of a raider. Build your base so that they must face away from you when cracking and it's hard for a Dlore user to even assault your base. I could go on about the ways around it but I think I've already over-spoke. I just hope this information is useful in some way
  21. Use !tokens and purchase the AWP with your free tokens earned from playing. It might not be permanent, but it certainly isn't only usable by people who are supporting the server.
  22. +1 Yes, Shizzle left a bad taste in the mouth of the community upon his last departure. Yes, his last apps have been lacking. Yet he has shown his inability to give up, and his ability to improve if even slightly. Look at his last app. Now back to this one. Now back to his last app. Notice a difference? He is acknowledging his criticism and trying to improve. Read through this app and realize he is literally 14 years old. This is very well written for a 14 year old and shows a level of self-awareness I've not yet seen in Shizzle. I'm giving him my +1 and I believe that even if he is declined, the (valid) criticisms here will only help him improve on his next app. So keep at it, criticizing every detail of a 14 year old who's in love with the server; I am sure that it will only benefit him in the long run.
  23. Good luck fellas I'd like to acquire hats or something STEAM_0:1:18378805
