I agree with most of the stuff you suggested like:
+2. Edit the Explosives dealer NPC.
+3. Lawyer and Secret Service jobs but not removing the prison guard. I think the Secret Service should infiltrate gangs and enemy bases then report the information back to the PD but cannot destroy anything or kill anyone when infiltrating gang bases.
+4, 5 & 6
I do not agree with the new skins for the cops and the removal of a prison guard because the new skins look really weak compared to the current combine ones we have just now. I quite enjoy the combine skins that the server has just now as they look like powerful and evil characters which in most cases they are.
I do not think there is a need for a new vendor that only VIPs can have because that would bring about another job that could just have easily been squeezed into the black market dealer (who would sell explosives).
