I was talking to Kase earlier on steam about players first impressions to this server, really it's pretty obvious that when a player joins, he gets spawned somewhere on mars, gets into a slow vehicle, drives around, see's probably 2 mini games, and a bunch of people cussing at each other shooting each other in front of the ship. This really does not make a good impression, Pedro may most certainly be onto something, a few things regarding the rules, I will explain those below.
I would like this to be like a poll sort of, a survey if you will, I'll be numbering my proposals and you answer in a Yes/No format to each number, if you vote no then please state an opinion.
ex: "1. Do you think xBlueXFoxx is smehxii? (Yes/No)" you respond with "Yes!".
I will also be asking for Op. 1 and Op. 2 (Op = option)
1. First impression, as I stated, joining the server and looking around there is really not much to see unless you really look at into the features of the server, most of it is well hidden from the normal eye, as this has already been acknowledged many times, do you think there should be improvements to the menu's and overall HUD and UI? (Yes/No)
2. The ship has been a large issue for quite awhile now, people shooting and throwing grenades at the ship, do you think grenades should be removed in such areas? (Yes/No)
3. Argument of fowl, offensive, disturbing, and discriminating names have been an issue since dirt was invented, today there was someone in game with the name "Nigga" which in fact may offend some people, there has been argument on the forum about it just meaning "friend, homie" and so on. Some people only do this because they feel they can take advantage of the lack of constant administration around the server as admins can't be playing at all times as they are human, or just want that as a name, but as we know such usernames is not tolerated in L.V.P. So do you think some kind of name filter system should be added, if someone joins with the cuss word or racist word in their names they be auto kicked from the server, I'm sure there are already premade lists of name filters around the internet, and I'm also pretty confident that a system for it already exists on the SA:MP forum, does this sound like a good idea? (Yes/No).
4. Racial swearing in the main chat, this one may be complicated as there is too many loop holes around this, people can always been a smart-asses and come up with something to find their way around this system, but I was thinking a system that detects racial swearing and filters it, warns the player then mute, but people can always say for example "N!gger", which yeah would clearly not be detected. Do you think such a system should be added? (Yes/No) (I choose no.)
5. The stunt world that has been in discussion for a bit now (remember, what's said in the beta forums does not leave them.) but yeah a stunt map is currently being worked on for the main world, but also trying to be effective and not interfere with the main world, for example nothing will be placed around the ship. If this idea does not approve of players, or effect the player count to a decent increase past version 2.94, should it be a stunt map or a second world? (Op. 1/Op. 2)
6. More main world mini games, this idea is rather raw and has not been in discussion at all, but I believe Kase said something about this earlier on steam. People love the terrorist game (/chase),but this is not about that, people love the recently discovered filterscript Jay found, "Don't Get Wet!", should such mini games be NOT be added to the mini games menu, but be added to an hourly event? Because face it, people don't want to get bored of this really fast like everyone did with HAS, maybe have a nice sized reward, 200k? (Yes/No)
7. New spawn points, Holden's been riding my ass about this for awhile now.
Do you think some new spawns should be mapped? (Yes/No)
8. Vehicle spawning, a friend of mine recently made a cool looking filter script that has a plane fly across the sky and drops a vehicle via a parachute, this system actually looks pretty sweet and well balanced than just slamming you into a car and letting you drive away. Instead, if you try to escape a fight with it, you will have to wait for the plane to fly by, drop it, then you have to run up and enter it. This gives anyone attacking you time to shoot you down or blow up your vehicle with a dropped grenade if you attempt to escape with it. There could be a 5-10 minute use time added with a nice pricing too. Possibly even a car lot added outside of LV where vehicles are added, so instead of creating vehicles as we found to be buggy, it just takes one of the vehicles from that lot, if the certain vehicle of choice is out of stock, the menu should mention if it is, this would be a great additive to a fighting and stunt server. If you would like to see the system in use, I encourage you watch my friends video below. Maybe throw a nice suitable price for each vehicle.
pVehicle - Dynamic Private Vehicle System for SA-MP
Does this look like a good idea to add? (Yes/No)
9. In-game bug reporting? Moderators and above have the /dev function that allows them to contact development to state an issue, possibly add a feature that logs bugs and such for players? (Not actually contacting the dev channel, just logging the issue in a nice format.) Also if this is added, I would suggest a system that allows you to block players from it, maybe a delay between 5 minutes for each bug report. So we don't have people constantly spamming the logs with garbage, then instead of people rambling on in the CSI and complaining about it all over the forums, they can be referred to this system, or the bug reports forum. Like this idea? (Yes/No)
10. Plus point rewards!~ What I mean by this is possibly every time a player gets a plus point, they instantly get 5k or 1m thrown into their bank account, just as a thanks for contributing in the server and help them to a great start. Good idea? (Yes/No)
LVP used to be an official server but people are making it appear as if it's a run down empty buggy server with corrupt administration. Hopefully we can change those opinions and reflect positively to new players.
This concludes what I think, please post your answer and opinions below.
