Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old lang syne?


For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup!
and surely I’ll buy mine!
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

And there’s a hand my trusty friend!
And give me a hand o’ thine!
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.


FOR THE MILLIONTH YEAR IN A ROW....

Anways, don't drink all the champagne.


Cheers,
~Phil

While many members may not play games anymore, one common trait among us is that we've all had to endure 2020. Accumulative of bad news and a pandemic, we still find ourselves here today. What we must remember is that we cannot dwell in the past, but press on for a better future. One of greater hope and joy. I wish everyone a safe and Happy Christmas.

Sincerely,
Phil

Mobster's Paradise is the dominant community in the MafiaRP game mode on Garry's Mod. My attention was directed to it lately by a friend, therefore leading me to log a couple of hours. Quite frankly, to declare Mobster's Paradise as a serious role-play server is a travesty.

With an impressive population, averaging roughly one hundred players daily, Mobster's Paradise attempts to give players a solid role-playing environment in the 1970's era in New York City. In the two or three hours that I spent on the server, I could notice the lacking development of people's characters. It's riddled with non-immersive players who act as though they are DarkRP converts through the quality of their role-play.

While the server has a massive map and an impressive population, you can barely find anyone in the street. The server itself, for the mobsters at least, is developed around a grind for money with NPCs around the map. As this wouldn't be a terrible way to give players a way to make money, the prompted issue is that its nearly impossible to earn anything without spending hours of farming and reinvesting your money into different tables or books that let you make any product. In addition to this, the profit margins are far too small to even bother with the grind. Sometimes, it's the more simplistic systems that will work more efficiently than whatever the hell is on MP. Not only are their systems of money-making worthless grinds, but they redirect the player's time spent on the server from developing their character to locking themselves in a room trying to grind these systems.

Overall, the quality of the server is unsurprising. Especially as it features former members of the Typhon community, cancer that they develop has undoubtfully created a poor serious role-playing environment for players. What's new with Garry's Mod, poor role-play, and servers? Sadly that has become a normal occurrence in the game.
