Gangs

See Also: Gangs FAQ

• The gang system is a text-based roleplay system on the forum.
  
• Gang wars do not involve online GTA multiplayer (yet)
  
• The gang system was created by Chris exclusively for The GTA Place.
  
• It is not a downloadable mod for IPB, and it is not for sale.
  
• Anybody can join a gang, you just need the permission of the gang's Don (owner)
  
• Do not beg gang officers to be accepted into a gang - if you do they are even less likely to let you in
  
• You can create a gang if you meet the minimum requirements of 100 posts and 300 days on the forum
  
• You can not be in more than one gang at a time. You cannot create a gang if you are already in a gang.
  
• The largest gangs have their own private subforums, where they can discuss things in private.
  
• If you are not in a particular gang, you can not access their private subforum, and you should not attempt to.
  
• Being at "war" with a gang does NOT give you the right to flame them or spread hate.
  
• If you are not part of a gang, you can not take part in wars, however you can attack individual members.
  
• Gang wars are infrequent, and there are currently two proposals in the work for a replacement gang system.
  

Money

• As you post on the forum, you gain forum money in dollars
  
• You can also gain money for completing quizzes in the store
  
• Forum money can be spent in the Store on weapons, vehicles and property for gang wars
  
• You can also spend forum money on other members, for doing favours for you
  
• For example, you can pay people in the Graphics & Writer's Pad to design a signature for you
  
• This is also a good way for you to earn your own money, by setting up your own shop.
  
• You get 5 points for replying to a post, and 10 points for creating a new topic
  
• If you are found spamming (creating useless topics/posts) in order to gain money, you will be dealt with by the staff
  
• Staff can fine you of points as a punishment for spamming or breaking other forum rules.
  
• Do not ask Staff to give you forum dollars, they will not.
  

Store & Quizzes

• The store is the place where you can spend your forum dollars
  
• The store is currently out of stock, because there are no gang wars approaching
  
• You can also take quizzes in the store for fun and to earn money
  
• Quizzes are not currently fully working due to technical problems, but you can try them anyway
  
• Do not point out that these do not work, as we do already know and are working on it. Do not beg for them to be fixed.
