As many people are screaming for a reset, the ROM hasn't even been opened yet. With the resets of .nl and .dm around the corner, are admins turning a blind eye towards .com? Who knows! Rumors say the reset of .com is delayed so more dc's will be bought once .nl/.dm are up and running for a while, but ofcourse these are just wild speculations.
What do you think? Reset or not?

What most people seems to not realize is that this is a old as fuck game with outdated content. With all the facebook and app games out there good ole omerta just doesn't bring in much new blood. So we got the same people here that has been here for years, and believe it or not people stop playing a game sooner or later.
Whats killing omerta more than cheaters is the following:
* Old game, repetive tasks aint fun in 2016
* Aging playerbase, most people started playing when they were 13-18 years old (and that was 10+ years ago) but are now into their mid 20's thus less time to play a time consuming such as omerta.
* Harder market, back in 2004/2005 omerta got big because there weren't much competition. People got too many options now and a 12/13 year old textbased browser game just doesn't bring all the kids running.
So even if omerta was 100% fair and clean (which its obviously not) it would still see a large decrease in players.

Let all that mofo`s stay away.
And give us, who love that slow, boring game, our game back !
There are people who love this game, that isn`t played on barafranca.com but on IRC.

Lackeys - retained but rank progress per action reduced
to a level between 50%-80% of manual progress.
Sluggs to work a max of 8hrs in a day .
O'Rourke+freekowski - max 12 hrs day .
Retainded means they stay -- in case you misplaced your dictionary .
Slugs time reduced to slow the gaining of bullets down
B/N lackeys reduced to drop the money flow into game
The idea on lackeys isnt an anti cheat measure - sure scripters will continue to try and get caught sometimes .
But it will curtail the worth of dupe accounts and not seriously affect and even give an advantage to manual ranking .

Maybe if you would explain why your argument could be valid.
Removing lackeys, would disadvantage fair players over scripters that's a fact, no doubt about that. The fact that manual playing is faster then a script doesn't mean fair players have disadvantage over cheaters. When fair players go out and have fun scripters turn their script on.
If you think you can't script anymore cause admins will akill you when you script then you are being naive.

A script doesn't make a lackey run, yes people were akilled for script that was hiring in lackeys, but the majority was akilled for a script that perfoms crimes/car nicks, booze/narc as if you were playing manual, but the script does it for you. Sadly not all the scripters were akilled. Scripts are still being used.
As people can still use scripts without being akilled, it favors cheaters who uses script when the lackeys only work like 10 hours a day and you would have to do the rest manual. The cheaters will just let there script run for the other say 8-10 hours, and let their script 4 hours off (pretending to be asleep).
Removing lackeys is a very very bad idea.

Lackeys are not removed. Just modified some.
And exactly how would this benefit cheats? If they've got a script that makes a lackey run More than its allowed time, I'd think that would stand out like a sore thumb and be irrefutable proof of cheating.
Same for accounts advancing too fast on just lackeys, if lackeys don't rank as fast as manual.
It seems to me that this would encourage people and discourage duping. Also encourage people to be on live more. Without totally taking away the lackeys (I've come to appreciate them. Even though I have more time than most to be on, I can't rank while cooking dinner, among other things.)
For a game that really is far more about IRC chat than the actual mechanics live people are really what we need to revive Omerta.

Sluggs to work a max of 8hrs in a day ?
and besides that you will have to buy them manually?
I understand your suggestion to get the game more active instead of putting on lackeys, login couple of times a day and that's it. To make a difference between lackey account and more active players.
But the problem with this sort of ideas are scripters (cheaters) will get advantage of that, they will let their script buy bullets for them without putting any effort in it.
If you put time and effort in your account i undertand you want to have an advantage over lackey accounts (more then it is now), i understand that logic, but cheaters with scripts will have the same advantage without the effort. And i don't believe 75%+ of the cheaters would get caught and akilled. It's sad so many cheaters exist.

The problem is cheaters. Nothing more nothing less.I don't know if the admins can see ip addresses, but surely to god they can. personally I don't think lackey's should be touched, because I don't cheat but can not get on this game for at least 10-12 hrs a day hence I use lackeys. So by curtailing lackey's puts me at a big disadvantage. Instead of just akilling ip ban them, I know you can get around IP bans but make it more difficult for them to rejoin. Also start coming clean with the reason they have been akilled, let the admins come out and say yes I do know this person in real life, make things more transparent, I am aware that I am rambling at the moment, but if lackey's do get curtailed or stopped, I wont be playing anymore, what would be the point because I can't rank 8 hrs a day manually. I work, I have a family. The uestion is am I the kind of player Omerta needs? I pay for DC's not as much as some people seem to brag about and honestly I don't believe. 100 dollars a version ? nope.

Same for accounts advancing too fast on just lackeys, if lackeys don't rank as fast as manual.
It seems to me that this would encourage people and discourage duping. Also encourage people to be on live more. Without totally taking away the lackeys (I've come to appreciate them. Even though I have more time than most to be on, I can't rank while cooking dinner, among other things.)
For a game that really is far more about IRC chat than the actual mechanics live people are really what we need to revive Omerta.
A script doesn't make a lackey run, yes people were akilled for script that was hiring in lackeys, but the majority was akilled for a script that perfoms crimes/car nicks, booze/narc as if you were playing manual, but the script does it for you. Sadly not all the scripters were akilled. Scripts are still being used.
As people can still use scripts without being akilled, it favors cheaters who uses script when the lackeys only work like 10 hours a day and you would have to do the rest manual. The cheaters will just let there script run for the other say 8-10 hours, and let their script 4 hours off (pretending to be asleep).
Removing lackeys is a very very bad idea.
Sir you have no clue.......Regards
Maybe if you would explain why your argument could be valid.
Removing lackeys, would disadvantage fair players over scripters that's a fact, no doubt about that. The fact that manual playing is faster then a script doesn't mean fair players have disadvantage over cheaters. When fair players go out and have fun scripters turn their script on.
If you think you can't script anymore cause admins will akill you when you script then you are being naive.

You're my hero seiffus. I love how you stand up for the little man.
You're my hero seiffus. I love how you stand up for the little man.
The game is played there.
I also played a full version on .PT and am very enthousiastic about it, it kept my sarcasm on .com alive and let me play the game I played on .com this time.
I died on .PT twice because of lack of communication with my family.
Which shows the personal bond you need between players to play the game wisely.
I enjoy .pt and detested .com.
.com was a ripoff this time and kids should be aware of that.
What most people seems to not realize is that this is a old as fuck game with outdated content. With all the facebook and app games out there good ole omerta just doesn't bring in much new blood. So we got the same people here that has been here for years, and believe it or not people stop playing a game sooner or later.
Whats killing omerta more than cheaters is the following:
* Old game, repetive tasks aint fun in 2016
* Aging playerbase, most people started playing when they were 13-18 years old (and that was 10+ years ago) but are now into their mid 20's thus less time to play a time consuming such as omerta.
* Harder market, back in 2004/2005 omerta got big because there weren't much competition. People got too many options now and a 12/13 year old textbased browser game just doesn't bring all the kids running.
So even if omerta was 100% fair and clean (which its obviously not) it would still see a large decrease in players.
Let all that mofo`s stay away.
And give us, who love that slow, boring game, our game back !
There are people who love this game, that isn`t played on barafranca.com but on IRC.
seiffus for President \o/
