Good point. However, the gang that owns the cartel did put in the work to cap it. Meaning, they were at a disadvantage and overcame those difficulties. Shouldn't they now be rewarded with the same advantages they had to overcome?

I see what you're saying now. 

I was thinking about that area below salt flats that could possible be turned into something, then I was wondering if there was a way to make someone elses vehicle yours. For say you are at a cartel and you obtain an enemies ifrit, you bring it to "Crack House DMV" (can call it anything but I mean that name would be cool :D) and depending on the type of vehicle you pay to have it re-registered to your name and will appear in your garage! Tell me what you guys think if this is a good idea or not?

As any player who has been around from the start or at least for a number of years will know, the community just isn't the size it has been in the past. There will obviously be a number of reasons for this, and therefore it CAN and should be countered. Whether or not it can be fixed is something that cannot be known until honest attempts are made to kick start the community and get our population back up. When discussing with newer players, of course the obvious things come into play such as:
bugs server stability (can't lie, it is absolutely atrocious) staff In my opinion, the staff has gotten considerably better as a few people have left and new ones have came in. The only current issue I have with the staff right now is that they do not seem to play the game in a competitive way. The development team also has a big history of not fully understanding the extent to which bugs and issues impact the players who regularly (talking hours a day, making this game their HOBBY) play the game effect the gameplay. Of course, an example is the new prison. It, in my experience, is nearly impossible to succeed with even a full group of competitive players against an EVEN number of cops. If the staff took part in the rebel side of prison breaks for example, they would potentially see it has really serious issues.
Secondly, I see so many suggestion threads, however the higher authority in the community (Devs, including Paratus) have no system implemented to respond to serious suggestions. One potential fix is taking the polls the community generate seriously. The money cap that came with 6.0 was hated, and I have no doubt that is when population went down-hill. It has been amended and is in a balanced state currently in my opinion, however, the community was already split and many people moved on due to that and other issues. (Who wants to play a game where your HARD WORK no longer gets you anything until you die and buy more gear, only to be capped within 30 minutes again?)
 
Server Stability and bugs are of course noticed by the development team, the matter seems to come with fixing them. On top of there being issues with the staff realizing how the bugs effect gameplay, it can take months for minor to moderate bugs to be fixed.
 
The biggest thing we as a community can do is reach out to people and advertise it. When the server was at its fullest points, streamers and Twitch users were involved in streaming, watching, and PLAYING the server. It got us TONS of attention, and it was amazing. We need to reach out to popular streamers again, and encourage them to play. Possible ways include:
Offer starting money and help guide them through what there is to offer Host more community events and actually try to get players to come together Unfortunately, the fixes for the community require everyone's input; share the game, share the server, and spread the word. On top of that, we need a 'bug-less' server that is playable and not infuriating to engage with.
Please spread this around, vote in the poll, and please get people to notice this post. Do your part if you want the community to grow, and then we can make sure never to let it lose population like it has (if a patch infuriates 50% of people, please don't just force it down their throats, they are YOUR community, and serve you)

hey i was thinking about how a good way to make carrier lites would be so something new was in the game i was thinking if shears were added to the market and you had to harvest wool/cloth from the goats and put that with iron to make carrier lites would be a great way

You Tony Hawk?

Atleast he's trying bro ^^
Don't get why you're being a dick :3

And you sir are an ass hole.

What about more boat spawns? Alts is an island after all. I see the piers all the time. You could even leave them unmarked on the map to avoid clutter. 
Maybe even houses that are really close to the shore could spawn boats. IDK just and idea. a

It seems like on server 4 once the player count gets above 80-90 the server severely lags then does its kick every 15-30 minutes while the player count is this high. Also while this is happening my fps continues to decrease from 70-100 to around the 20 range. Could there be some kind of script that is constantly running when the player count reaches that possibly spawning something in or continuously running to cause the decrease in fps? 

I remember long ago all servers used to be 100/100 and this shit never happened....

will this ever be resolved seems to be getting worse and worse, when it happens server 4 is unplayable, people loosing so much money, also every time you get kicked say goodbye to your Y inv. cant count how many times ive lost dirty money or helis from these kicks. 

Hi everyone, just made this Guide today because i felt like the old one is misleading and missing a lot from the new updates, hope you enjoy cheers!
if theres any change or something i got wrong let me know.
Crafting Recipes:
The crafting of various items can be completed in Asylum. This is done at either the Black Market, Vehicle or Firearms production facilities which can be found on the map in-game. It requires the following recipes to create the various items.

Crafting Recipes with Turf (Panagia) :
All recipes can be completed using reduced materials if the crafter is a member of the gang in possession of the turf at Panagia (DP23). Panagia Reduces the cost of crafting by 20 - 25%.
Thank you @Nic Rage for Assisting me with the Guide by making the Crafting Recipes with Turf
