Instead of creating separate chat rooms for events, I've decided to create "General RP Chat". With this, it will help clean up some folk's chat room list, and it will also save time.
I'm inviting every member to the chat, so whenever there is an event you can simply join the "General RP Chat" instead of waiting around for an invite.

Also, I may start using "Closed Friend" lobbies on the events, so I no longer have to send invites to everyone. As long as you have me as a friend (which all of you do), you can just join without making me pause and invite everyone twice.
Don't know why I didn't do this in the first place.


Just found a major flaw in this - a maximum of 15 people are allowed in a chat room. So either I reduce the number of people in the club to 15 (which is not acceptable, btw) or I continue with the chunky create-a-new-chat-every-lobby plan.


I believe that keeping the chats how they are is no real issue, I delete the chat every morning after the RP and have no issue with chat spams. Just my opinion though. :)

It doesnt really matter to me as i delete every chat at the end of every rp anyway.
 
Out Of Character (OOC)
Name: Louis.
Age: 21
PSN: Saarai
Role Play experience: Star Wars Galaxies, City Of Heroes/Villains, Champions Online, Age Of Conan, Fallout series, etc.

In Character (IC)

Name: Maria Munroe
Age: 23
Job/Career/Money Source: Drug dealer/hired gun.

Bio: Born in Los Santos to a Jamaican mother and Peruvian father, Maria was no stranger to the hardships that immigrants to America had to face. As she grew up she was mostly kept away from the gangs and violence that plagued her neighborhood, at the time the projects in Rancho, by her older brothers who had left home to join the Ballas.

It wasn't until her father's murder by the Vagos when she was ten years old that Maria figured she could solve her family's problems, and get revenge, with a gun and dirty money. Now staying with her eldest brother on Covenant Avenue, Maria took it upon herself to make sure the Balla OGs knew exactly who she was.

Everything from being a lookout, to crawling through cat flaps and unlocking doors from the other side for the rest of the gang was done to garner attention from the elder Ballas. It wasn't until the war with the Families flared up that Maria was really able to prove her worth.

At age 17 she helped attack and kill several members of the Carson Avenue Families. Her willingness to kill and skill with a firearm earned the young woman a real space within the Ballas gang. In and out of jail for various crimes, but still lacking in the respect she felt she deserves due to her gender, Maria would eventually start putting distance between herself and the old gang.

Now aged 23, Maria works jobs here and there for different criminal organizations and drug dealers, often as a gunman to buy her mother a home outside of Davis and eventually come into contact with someone who knows who pulled the trigger and left her without a father.


Personality: Maria can be loud, rude, and sometimes crass. Typical for someone who spent more than half their life running with a gang like the Ballas. But, the young woman is also very smart despite her expletive filled manner of speaking.

She tends to hold grudges against those that wrong her, but understands that sometimes it's just business and is more than willing to work with those who have bumped heads with her in the past. What she isn't willing to do is work with police. Growing up in Davis as a Balla, Maria has no love for the law and tends to respond to them with anger.

And gunfire if she can get away with it.

Photograph (If available): Coming soon.

Name: John Jacobs
Age: 22
Job/Career/Money Source: Mechanic, Street Racer, Car Thief.

Bio (description of your characters past, present, and future goals):
Was Born in Midwest United States. Grew up in his Dad's car shop. Always had a passion for cars like his father. Was very close to him and wanted to be like him. Ever since John was a little kid he loved racing, and wanted to be a professional race car driver. Always have and will have a passion for cars. He knows the inside and outs of just about any car. Grew up in a modest, happy life until he was 16...

His dads shop was well known for performance modifications for cars and race teams. Business came booming for them and had most of the underground racing scene business. All this attention is good you may say but lead to something that forever changed John's life. With all the business the shop was getting other shops kept getting less and less. One of these rival shops was apart of one of the biggest gangs in the Midwest. The gang wanted to get back at him for taking most of the business in that area. So, they burnt down the shop with his dad inside. John was 16 and had lost his dad. He only wanted his dad to raise him and no one else. So he runs away to avoid going into foster care. He stays in the move for two years till he's 18, by doing illegal jobs like stealing cars and also by working on cars at the underground racing scene. At 18 he finally settles down with a friend in San Francisco.

He and his friend are partners in street racing. Becoming very good within this and are planning on opening there own shop and making the switch to professional racing. They continue doing this for roughly 4 years. Up until his friend gets killed... He was racing as usual, in the underground scene. He was racing against a rival in a high stakes wager race. He was faster. The rival knew this, it was best of 5 and he already took a 2-0 lead, taking the first two races with ease. On the third race he was about to pass the rival and take the lead. But the rival turned into him and bumped his car to the left. (Ok so bumping is racing right?) This happens and isn't considered a huge thing but it was into the median and he went in between the guardrails on the train tracks in the city... A train happen to be coming this exact moment. Struck the train head on and was killed. John has now lost his best friend.

After this moment John loses most of his money and has to restart. He has to start from nothing. He then decides to move again so he can escape all his losses. He hears about a city named Los Santos with a good racing scene. He decides to settle down there and start over. All he has is his clothes on his back and his knowledge of cars. He is willing to do anything to achieve his dream of becoming a race car driver. But this is not easy and it often seems best to get involved in "the wrong things". And this is where he is at today. Doesn't have much to his name, but willing to do whatever it takes.


Personality (Angry, depressed, obsessive, etc):
-Very competitive, makes him mad to lose and sometimes this leads to unneeded violence.
-Cares how he looks, will always make sure he has a good image.
-Cocky, he is cocky and will let you know it also when he wins.
-Intelligent, is very smart, street and book smart. He often already knows your next move.
-Ambitious, John will always complete his goal and will not quit until he does.
-Trustworthy, John will never backstab you. You can always trust him 100% on any task.


Photograph (If available): Not currently but will get one.

Plan on updating him, and keeping his story alive. Pretty sure I got everything and hope I get accepted. Also has anyone thought of opening a thread for Bio's and a list of all characters and what they do? This can be organized on google drive in a spreadsheet, or document so people can keep track of other people and can read other peoples story.

Maria sounds really dark - I like it. We have yet to have what it seems, a 100% hard-ass character. Accepted!
Now, this makes 20 out of 20 players. I've considered creating a possible queue of applications, so when someone leaves, the next person in line gets to join (of course meaning their application was accepted). But, I don't believe I need that quite yet.

Anyway, Louis, I will add you as a friend tommorow when the events starts so you can join/be invited.

@michrulejj, if you wish, I can read over your application now and add you to this "queue" list or you can wait a bit and alter your story a bit or do whatever you want to do. Pretty much all of the current members are active - least active so far would probably be @darren200cook - but he's talked to me a couple of times since joining, so he's just trying to find some time.

Aren't there a few people in the list who left the RP for good?
 
Maybe Rockstar will have police vehicles for delivery through Pegasus in the near future? From WarStock of course.
 
A dark character I see? Seems to be a likely companion for poor Kenton in the everyone v Kenton situation.
...Or could it end up as Everyone v Kenton v Maria? Who knows xD

Edit: I just noticed that Kenton is not yet on the character list. In case you need the link to his profile it is here.
