TOPIC: Jailbreak Suggestion + Poll!

We have already discussed and thought of a few things but it will definitely be custom and not a default jailbreak server. Unfortunately giving out what we've planned would ruin the surprise, but a few things were mentioned in the main post.

There has been many cases of people getting hyped so they vote yes for something that wouldn't happen and seen has you said minecraft just look back on its history..... Hows minecraft doing now? If the story looks good people will be excited and vote for it no matter how bad of an idea it really is.

If this gets accepted would i love to helpby making the maps having some zarp features in it

You are far more experienced with these stuff Red since you are in Zarp for many years, but that's just my opinion: People are hyped if they like something. For example, an SSRP player won't be hyped for a TTT server. I asked many people from other servers if they were hyped for TTT S2 and many of them didn't care. Apparently the majority of the community likes Jailbreak. If someone suggested an Chivlary Medieval Warfare server for example, i am pretty sure many people would vote No. ZARP never had an Chivlary server, so there's no bad nor good History behind it. But people understand that Zarp can't expand on a game like this because it has nothing to do with Gmod and the Community's gaming style. Also people can see that this game is dying so i don't think they will be really hyped. All in all in my opinion most of the people think before they vote and don't just click yes on every single suggestion for a new server.

You'll see how the Minecraft server is doing soon^TM.

Polls are there just to give a rough idea on what some members of the community would want. You can't base everything off the polls, but they can still tell you in some ways what the community would want, and if you would have people who would want to play on the server.
In order to create a good server, you can't just push forward some empty ideas and promises, you want to create what you want to push forwards first, and tell people what you have created, not what you will create. People make promises and it hypes people up, making them say that they want it, you have to base it off of the promises and whether the promises will actually be delivered. That is one of the reasons the last Minecraft server died, because of promises that were not fulfilled and a lack of updates (which is why I haven't said what I am currently working on for the Minecraft server, just said that I am working on something and that, if all goes well, it'll be something cool).

TL;DR:
Polls tell us a little bit, not everything. Promises can be made, what matters is the execution and whether they are delivered.

You did not actually give hazzenator the original idea I'm afraid. Myself and hazzenator were talking about this a little while ago before you spoke to hazz about it.

As long as someone bullies EMP when he goes on then I see no reason to not have a jailbreak server.

It was me who approached Hazzenator actually, he hasn't stolen any of what you've discussed as far as I'm aware.

Coutinroy supported me in everyway he could so its wrong for me not to give back.

I know absolutely nothing about this game mode , but it should be fun to learn.

not to mention the fact that Coutinroy is a very trusted person with "powers".

"EMP" Haven't heard of that name in years, where has he been?

Bump!

Yes please!

Bump if anyone has anything to say or any questions.

Also this could bring more players to ZARP with the custom plugins and then we would have more members and staff

I feel like you have something really good here and i believe that it could keep a solid player base as currently the polls are over 50% yes meaning people want it and in general i think this would be a great addition to ZARP and many people would play it.

Bump, going for 100 votes!
