  1. Role-Play thread.

    The masked man jumps, startled by Steward "Shut Up!" he nervously yells. He points his gun at Stewart, Whispering something to his partner he walks towards Stewart holding out a shaking hand he timidly exclaims "Your w..wallet... n..now." As he does this, the masked women goes around to all of the tables stuffing everyone's wallets into her purse. As she approaches Kevin's table and takes his wallet she screams "You're Keys!" Jack remains seated and straight faced trying not to draw any attention to him or his briefcase. This is becoming increasingly difficult due to the strange green glow it is emitting as well as the increasing frequency of beeps. Fortunately neither of the robbers notice, however both Stewart and Kevin becoming increasingly aware of the briefcase.
  2. Dollabank Job Listing

    Accountant: Keeping track of all of our clients accounts is no easy task. Although we are a small LLC we expect to have several sources of open debit or credit. As an accountant, it is your job to make sure that all this money and dept is kept track of. Without you, our business would surely fail. This position is all about trust. You will start with a few small accounts and work your way up to more and larger accounts. As an accountant you will make a set salary paid out daily based on the amount and size of accounts you manage. Salesman: Salesmen are the face of the company. As a salesperson it is your job to strike deals with the citizens of Identity. You will then write down and transfer the details of the contract made with clients and give this information to the accountants to keep track of. A great deal of charisma is required to fulfill this position. You are what the world sees first of our company. As a salesmen you will make a commission based off of the size and the amount of accounts you open. An option is available to take a salary with a smaller commission, but this is optional. Debt Collector/Repo: We run a peaceful business here at Dollabank. Here our employees abide by the law and handle currency. Violence is not in our nature. Here at Dollabank our way of violently collecting a loan is simply to deny you credit. However we realize that once people have money they seldom want to give it up. Especially if they just bought a new car or house. However, people also forget, that the money used to buy that house or car, wasn't theirs. If someone uses money that isn't theirs to buy a new house or a car, that house or car isn't theirs. If you work in repo it is your job to make sure that everyone really owns what they claim to and if they don't, fix it. Please PM uncannierlink with your application if you wish to work for Dollabank.

    That just gives me more time to advertise and more time to find respectable employees. It's never too early to make plans.
  4. What is your concern about Identity.

    This is honestly my only concern. Economy sounds like it will be laissez faire so no qualms there. Lots of players will be cops or have civilian jobs. Money is all server side so hackers can't do anything with that. Really the only problem is if the game actually comes out. As much as I want the devs to be capable as it stands I'm skeptical.
  5. Parties

    Political Parties are formed when politicians with similar ideas collaborate and form organizations. As it stands there aren't very many people who want to be involved in government, much less run an organization of politicians. After the system is more fleshed out I think we'll definitely see political parties form.
  6. Role-Play thread.

    As Kevin sits down to order his usual at the diner, A masked man and women stand up drawing their guns. The couple scream in unison "This is a robbery! Everyone put your wallets and purses on the table!" Almost everyone in the diner starts to panic and puts their belongings onto the tables, except for Jack who calmly clutches a brown briefcase with a firm grasp. *This commotion is heard by everyone nearby, except for the police who are too far away*
  7. Modules

    That's troubling IMO. I'd rather they have a system where they say, "OK we've made this much progress in this much time" Instead of "Oh I feel like we can update this arbitrary scale an arbitrary amount"
  8. Modules

    I based my math on the fact that it took them 58 days for them to update the percentage 9%. My math checks out but, they're development pace could change. I have yet to recieve a comment on my estimate from the devs. What makes you so sure it'll come out around April/May?
  9. Modules

    I did the math in one of my other posts. That's probably worst case scenario though. I said it would take 232 days from the day I made the post which was on the 19th of February. I don't really have time to do the math now but the rate is 9% every 58 days.
  10. Worst Pickup Lines?

    If I was trapped on an island With 6 million girls I'd put them all to work to build a boat to take me back home so I could be with you.
  11. So whose putting there names down for elections

    You've certainly owned my vote and hopefully a reasonable amount of financial support from my company!
  12. Please Block Russians!

    The solution to this is to have Russian servers but not to region lock them. I think it's bigoted to essentially ban someone from a server because of their region/language. What If I have friend in Russia I want to play with but we can't because of region locks? That would just be stupid. Just have it so that some servers have RU in the name and some servers have ENG in the name. Problem solved.
  13. PvP Rules / Passive mode

    I believe they said that metal detectors would remove guns and weapons from players inventory. Idk where they would put these (spawn and the hospital maybe) but I think there needs to be a lot of balance testing with invincibility zones before we find a system that works.
  14. Hiring

    I think the AI are just going to be the cashiers. I don't really think a large portion of the playerbase is going to want to sit in a shop for 8 hours a day waiting for customers. Maybe it's just not my cup of tea but RPing a cashier is not very appealing to me. That doesn't mean there won't be jobs in sales though. I know of a few companies (including mine) that are planning to hire salespeople. Also I think I heard somewhere that players will be able to be used car salesmen, though I don't know if the developers confirmed this or not.
  15. PvP Rules / Passive mode

    I think that's fine actually. If someone in real life is chasing you with a knife and run into your house and lock your door and windows, they most likely won't be able to get in. Honestly if I were in that situation I wouldn't log out I'd just call the cops.

  17. Truly a Miracle

    Brothers and sisters do my eyes deceive me? Is it true? Is this some cruel trick played on me by the heaven, or is it truly a miracle granted to our unworthy souls? The town square module has been updated to 64%! Truly a GLORIOUS day for all to remember.
  18. Truly a Miracle

    That's what I hope. But realistically speaking I haven't seen much REAL evidence they're working hard. Just the occasional screenshot and even then there's only been a couple. It's not enough to convince me personally one way or the other.
  19. Truly a Miracle

    Well if it was 55% at the launch of the website on 12/22/2015 and it took until 2/18/2016 for an increase to 64% the rate it's developing is 9% every 58 days. With 36% remaining this means it will take 232 more days for the bar to reach 100% at the current rate it is going at. However I think (and deeply hope) the devs just forgot about the percentage and/or it doesn't represent the reality of development. Any feedback from them in regard to this would be great (though as of recent they haven't said anything.)
  20. Negative Response to Role play.

    Before you read this I should state that i realize it's the forums and I realize it's the internet and people are going to say stupid shit but it does slightly worry me. In a thread I was reading there was a small RP exchange going on between 2 members(Wasn't in the pub in case you were wondering), and someone commented on how the exchange was "cringey" and the people were "kids." I know that this person is entitled top his opinion and can think whatever he wants, but this is still concerning for me. I feel that this kind of attitude is going to discourage people from really getting into character and Role playing. It's the internet and this is a multiplayer RPG. It worries me that people are going to go into 2 players RP discussion and say "LOL check out these cringey kids they're role playing ew gay." If no one RP's in this game it's going to turn into a grind fest where literally the only activities in the game are going to be the automated ones put into the game by the devs. For my final point just imagine how much more fun Altis life would have been if the cops weren't such hard asses and RPed out a bribe every once in a while, or if the governor introduced a new law and the cops actually agreed to enforce it. That would be really cool. Except that if every time someone tries to RP another person comes over and says, "You're making a fool of yourself haha" when it already takes a lot of confidence to RP that cool stuff will never happen. I'm not saying everyone has to RP and I'm not saying that everyone should RP (But that would be really cool). But I would like it to be that I don't have to join a private community server if I want to RP and that RP isn't looked down upon by a majority of the players. What are you're thoughts?
  21. Pros/cons of intoxicants

    See the thing is, Drugs need to have serious positive benefits otherwise people will never use them and they'll be worthless. Like cocaine needs to make you be able to tank and extra 3-5 bullets Meth needs to make you run at least 50% faster IDK what you could do with depressants.

  23. Dollabank Official Accounts

    This information will require further assessment of your assets, employee base, business model, financial history etc. Also I would prefer to not give this information out publicly as I'm fairly certain you wouldn't want your competitors to know the information we require for assessment. Though most likely, as Aegis is a household name at this point, you would be considered an established corporation.
  24. Dollabank Official Accounts

    In terms of corporations, we offer business loans to those that are first starting out, and for more established companies, you can set up checking and savings accounts in your corporations name. Also for business expansion you can get a loan with a smaller interest rate for your company. Currently we do not offer a credit card service even for corporations.
  25. Zeus Corporations™ (Zeus™)

    That's what I'm thinking. if you don't specialize your company and are going to do whatever it takes to make money, What makes you any different from a gang or a mafia family?
