Personally I think the way it works is good as is.

Perc stated it perfectly; there’s no reason to punish players when they were already pushed to the point of rage quitting, it’s pointless. Sucks that you don’t get their stuff, but you just gotta move on and raid some other base. 

At least add something where if they change jobs or leave the server, the props/loot stay behind for a certain amount of time. I know it's possible because other servers have it. I mean don't punish the raiders because the defender was upset that he lost his items. Like I keep saying, If you are basing accept the consequences. Otherwise what's the point at all?

What punishments would you like to be seen given in these scenarios?

Honestly In my opinion it should be 

Changing Jobs = Warn + the money the raider lost for the raid in general. Since not only was their time wasted, Money was too.

Leaving the server in general. should be a ban for at least a few days. the reason I say this, Is because if they rage quit they aren't really losing anything anyway since they were probably going to leave the server anyway. So they'd just do again because it's a Loop hole for the rule in general. also the money the raider lost for the raid

Leaving and joining back - This is just pure toxicity. in my opinion it should be  Warn + the money the raider lost for the raid + Jail time.

Player dies in a raid > they disconnect; so now not only did they lose their items, but now they've lost their base and have to reconnect

Yes but that base could be duped IF that's where you was going with this, It doesn't take that much time at all to put a few keypads down, I'm thinking more about the Raiders perspective and how it wastes their time and money for a mardy excuse to leave the server.

28 minutes ago, dr. snortthisperc said:

I mean surely they've thought about how dumb it was to disconnect when they could've just re-setup their jobs, and continued playing.

I completely agree with you, they probably cried and left and then realised how stupid it is. But at the end of the day it's thinking about both sides. 

28 minutes ago, dr. snortthisperc said:

Imagine how irritating it would be to lose a raid so bad that you felt you had to just straight disconnect, and then later come back to being banned for that same reason. I'd probably never rejoin that server again.

Although they might be upset over a Video Game I believe they shouldn't be treated any different because they've had a tantrum and can't keep their dummies in their mouth. In general I believe that again you should be willing to accept that risk if you are willing to base. It just seems like a massive loop hole in the rules. I mean I could just leave every time I get raided and have 0 consequence towards it. I mean what am I losing? Pretty much nothing.

I appreciate you taking the time to read my opinions and what I have to share.

Like Jouaram said in this screenshot, it's kinda like throwing salt to the wound; if a player is angry about a raid and wants to remove themselves from the situation, I can totally understand that. This is much more preferred than the players who get angry and start fights and arguments in OOC. Now if they rejoin, then they obviously didn't do it because they were mad enough to rage quit but out of spite which is pretty toxic I agree with you.

Changing jobs while being raided, while there is no set rule against that I find this 100% punishable through either the same guidelines as if you rejoined, or Job Abuse.

From the raiders perspective I can why you'd want the person who left to be warned, it's just not Aethers best interest to warn these types of players.
 

+1 for a guideline showing punishments for those who "Switch jobs during a raid"

 

Thank you for the response, In general in my opinion if you are to base you need to accept the risks and the punishment if you lose. That's the fun about basing. If they can't accept a loss than maybe basing isn't for them? But In general. a Player should be willing to accept the risks of losing everything they have placed if they can't be grown up about it then again, They shouldn't be basing. It's just unfair for the raider who's actually wanting to gain something from it. But thank you for the comment, I agree with you .

Suggestion: Being Punished For Leaving Mid Raid.

Link To Relevant Addons: N/A

Media/Screenshots/Videos: N/A

How will this improve the quality of Aether?: So basically I've been told and I've looked on the rules for people being punished for leaving or changing jobs just after they've been killed to remove their Bitcoin Miners or Meth Labs for example that they've placed down removing the sole reason for a raid in general. If this suggestion were to be accepted I think that if they are being raided they shouldn't be allowed to change job or leave the server till the raid is completely over. till the person who was raiding has adverted over. I mean people are just spending more money to get into the base with no pay-out for the raid at all. Apart from the kill of course 😄

Personally I think it falls under FailRP I believe this is a player trying to gain an Unfair advantage.

Welcome back

Thank you, I appreciate it 🙂

Hello I'm Ophelia, I've previously played the community and looking to get back into the server. I hope everyone's day is going amazing. 🙂

In-Game Name: Ophelia

SteamID: [STEAM_0:1:80665242]

Player/Staff You Are Reporting's Name: BakedPotato

Is This Complaint For A Staff Member Or Player?: STAFF

Reason For Complaint: As I was brought by Baked Potato. He was quite unprofessional in general of the Admin Situation. He wouldn't hear my side to the story and started to speak over me when asking me questions. And the person who I actually demoted was trying to even explain the situation to me why he was actually trying to Randomly Warrant her. and he just physguns the guy away and gags me and then warns me for false demotion when in general I couldn't really care about the warn because my friend keeps getting harassed and warranted for no reason. in general he didn't even know the situation at all. Yes I believe I should be warned for Demotion when Staff are online (I didn't know it was a rule break and I'm sorry for these actions), But he can't just assume that I wrongfully demoted him and there isn't any reason behind that demotion. Especially when he didn't even Investigate the situation at all. In my opinion from what I witnessed was sloppy and unprofessional and should be meeting higher standards.  If anything It would be nice to see BakedPotato to go through at least some sort of staff training. I don't know if he was trying to speed run the report or what?

My friend at the time died and then went AFK then was warranted for literally 0 reason. I would like to see the Staff Member at least see his wrongful behaviour and at least be a man about it. But I appreciated the people taking the time reading this and sees both sides to the story. Instead of 1 Sided. 🙂

1. Because Wind Staff 

2. AFK Farming 🤣

Welcome back 🙂

I didn't know you personally but.

Good Luck, I wish you best for the future.

With all due respect I don't think this is the server you're thinking it is or looking for. The goal is not to be same as every other DarkRP server in existence. Some people just come for the simplicity and community interaction. We have money making jobs with complexity, and we have simplicity mixed in. There's something for everyone while maintaining good performance and a not so serious RP environment. Adding an extra level of complexity to printers doesn't make sense to me personally. Some players throw them down in a base and forget about them while they RP or just have fun with their friends. They require 0 maintenance and effort which makes them the perfect thing for some easy cash. I see no reason to change it.

I didn't say anything about being like any other darkrp server. So with all respect stop putting words into my mouth since I did say

 3 times already, please read the definition. I do like the server, I'm just suggesting NEW addons being added to the server. Like I said before.

This will be my last comment on the matter since in all honesty I cannot be bothered to argue over a Garry's Mod server. Enjoy the rest of your day 🙂

We have tried it and the exact same style of addon with a direct link to poor server performance, we also have had less intensive addons cause issues. Why would we willingly add it knowing it will cause issue, all the while having a perfectly functional existing party system that works as designed 

Maybe because it has territories, a printer for the gang which the party system doesn't have. You may of tried this "Style" of addon but that isn't this addon which I've suggested. Completely different download size, Ratings on the addon etc etc. 

You've had a bad experience with a addon with one I haven't suggested. Therefore you are being ignorant.

That's kind of a laughable thing to say, Just because it works doesn't mean it's amazing and updated. Look, I'm just speaking from experience the things that would attract more players is updated addons which are made from at least the past 6 years, I'm looking at other peoples perspectives who first join the server. They'd expect to see something fresh and up to date.

I understand your probably reading this thinking what the fuck do you know about running a server or knowing what addons to exactly add to the server. I would be thinking this too, But I've been around on Garry's Mod since 2014 the year the current printers have released and some of you probably have too. maybe some of you even before my time. When I suggest these addons I'm not exactly saying you've should add this exact addon it could be any other printer system which is updated and with the time of today.

It's just like getting on a new game you've just downloaded and seeing the same shit as the last game you've been on.  

"Be Originators"

I hope you read this with a open mind. 

Suggestion: Up the prop limit to 110 for example.

Link To Relevant Addons: N/A

Media/Screenshots/Videos: N/A

How will this improve the quality of Aether?: Can build bigger bases than usual and use bigger dupes from other servers what others have saved.

Suggestion: NEW Money Printers.

Link To Relevant Addons: https://www.gmodstore.com/market/view/oneprint for example.

Media/Screenshots/Videos:

How will this improve the quality of Aether?: Due to the printers being massively outdated and hasn't been updated since 2014, I believe a new look to the money printers would be a nice touch to the server.

Suggestion: Make the items which are overpowered such as the Breach Juice more expensive 

Link To Relevant Addons: N/A

Media/Screenshots/Videos:  N/A

How will this improve the quality of Aether?: since it literally opens up every fading door for 75k you can make that in under 2 mins, which is seriously overpowered for raiders and isn't balanced what's so ever. It seems completely useless to build a massive base just to take a L by a Breach Juice since it's literally everything that's carrying them when raiding a base you can get 1000x more than the Breach Juice is actually worth.

I can't lie it's kind of ignorant to say it's going to take up a lot of performance without actually trying it first.
