Dragged... wayyyy off topic. This post was not meant to be an attack on a specific gang, and the only reason the gang base / turf abuse was mentioned because it's the only one I can mention publicly without posting people's gang shed locations on the forums.
Apparently this was enough to warrant a diss track, so be it. Moving past that.. It would be nice if our Senior Admins+ could assess the situation and reinterpret the rules and then apply them to the server in the new environment of group based play instead of gang based play. All I'm saying.
And despite what a lot of people are saying to do with just player reports, all that's going to result in if they did rule against the current situation, is a surprise bans and shock enforcement of something they've sat idle on for a long time. A notice would be preferable to getting people banned and having things stripped from them, and following through and developing opinions on whether some entities constitute separate gangs or not or whether they are basically the same group.
That being said, my personal opinion, if players in a gang spend more than 70% of their playtime in a group with another gang, that group should constitute a single entity and should be treated as such with gang sheds, gang bases, and gang turfs. That's just common sense.
