Improvement Suggestions (2)

[George]

1) VIP commands: As a VIP member, I see lots of cool commands which do not give us any kind of advantage which is pretty fair. I'd suggest the creation of a new one that could give us the ability of spawning all types of cars. Of course, in a limit time of 3 minutes, same as Infernus /inf. It could also give us the opportunity to spawn a jetpack. That may increase the interest of regular players to donate and contribute to the server hosting.

The VIP platform as it stands does indeed have some cool commands and perks, enough to diversify it from being a regular player, but not so much that a regular player has no chance of competing with a VIP in a duel, for example. This is a topic that we need treat with caution, as we don't want to scare non-VIPs away from our server. It's for this reason that I feel like some of the suggestions we've had in the past (e.g. the ability for VIPs to define a spawn point, Jetpacks, vehicle spawning) make me concerned. 

Vehicle spawning: We already do have this in some form - /cruise car - which is available for VIPs during a cruise. I like the way in which LVP only allows people to find vehicles on the street, it gives a classic GTA:SA feeling. We don't want to make the game easier than it already is, this could do more harm than good. 

Jetpacks: Not a bad idea, but I would request that we set vicious requirements to allow one to be spawned. For example, if you've been engaged in DM within 5 minutes, the command is unavailable. A jetpack would also make it easy to reach normally hard to reach props, in which historically players have had to find other ways to access, such as using /dive or vehicle ramping. This comes back to my earlier point of making everything too easy. 

In conclusion: I support your overall proposal for extra VIP features, but I'm on the fence about these two ideas.

2) Flame: Well, honestly open chat is such a great tool for communication as long as it doesn't help "flamers" out. I'd suggest you guys to create /block command to avoid players from seeing messages from this type of users. I mean, let's use the common sense.. Players don't change due to rules, they stop flaming due to kicks or bans. I can't kick/ban but yes report. I don't want to keep reporting. I want to play. My suggestion, as been said. it's a creation of a permanent block messages from an specific nickname (which should be a "flammer). The block longs forever until we feel like unblocking, which is different from /mute command.

For the current session only, this can be achieved using the /ignore command. Using this command will mean that any messages the ignored player sends in main chat, as well as PMs, will not be visible to you. It sounds to me like what you're asking for is the ability to permanently ignore certain players, as in, persistent upon quitting and rejoining. Did I understand this correctly?

3) Skin: I clearly see there are clothing style store in Lvp, so why not allowing it for playing to buy/wear some clothes? Skins/clothes are pretty the same. We could have some options to spend money instead of earning it and making it pointless in a way that there's nothing else to use it for.

I like this idea.
