Coming from a background of older traditions, they are against hard drugs being sold on their turf as opposed to the Ballas and Vagos. They are very stubborn and Sweet refuses to adapt to changes in the Los Santos criminal underworld.

Your background story: Jeffrey grew up on Grove Street, where he was friend with several members of the Grove Street Families, including Sweet Johnson and Big Smoke. Jeffery lacked the physical capability to join the Families, but he was still enamored of the gangster lifestyle. Sweet told him to get out of the ghetto and go to college, but Jeffery was set on becoming a gangsta-rap superstar. Some time after the year 1987 he began going by the name OG Loc, and committing any small crimes, mostly traffic violations, that would get him thrown in prison for a few weeks in order to build up his street rep.After the downfall of Grove Street Families, Big Smoke chose to launder his drug money by granting Loc a record contract, making him rich and famous. Using Madd Dogg's rhyme book, he recorded his first and only album Str8 From Tha Streetz, immediately paired with a clothing company, Loc-Down available at Victim. He was interviewed by Lazlow on WCTR. Despite mocking him in the past, Big Smoke goes on with the charade that OG Loc is a gangster, and juxtaposes it with another falsehood that he is a philanthropist trying to fight off the crack epidemic. After the recovery of both Madd Dogg and Grove Street Families, OG Loc was chased down by CJ and Madd Dogg himself from the set of his music video in Flint County all the way to Blastin' Fools Records in Los Santos, and finally extorted for Madd Dogg's rhyme book and royalties from his album. In 2013 OG Loc combine a group with his good friend from grove street named William Kennedy. people called him "Wax" he wanted to become an rapper so OG Loc and Wax decided to establish a group of two gangsta rappers named "G street B'z", what means "Grove street Brotha'z". In year of 2013 came out their first song named "Straight up snitch" it was time when the streets was full of snitches and unloyal gang members, they was rapping about it, the group were getting bigger and bigger. Later that year was released their first album "Ganton menace" produced by Curtis "C" Jefferson with two songs "Purple bitch" and "Str8 outta' Ganton". It was period of crisis, drug dealing, and murderes on the streets of Ganton, also Grove street gets their main enemy "Kilo Tray Ballas" set when Kilo tray member and rapper Quaren "Lil Dizzy" Walton started dissing them with his rap lyrics. That day becomes an seriously rap war betwen OG Loc and Lil Dizzy, that means gang war betwen Grove street families and Kilo tray ballas. Lil Dizzy's first diss was song named "OG Joke" intended to OG Loc. When Jeffrey heard his diss he was about "What the fuck is this, is he kidding? I'll show to that son of the bitch what means a rhyme.." Than he wrote some lyrics for back diss and went to the studio record it. People was like "Woow, OG Loc killed him with his rhymes!" The whole LS were talking just about Lil Dizzy's and OG Loc's rap battle because it was very tense betwen them. Anyway after a few more disses from Lil Dizzy and back disses from OG Loc was Wax shooted on the streets probably by Kilo tray's, but later we figured out that he wasn't shooted really, he was just running and hiding from mafia, which tried to kill him. Jeffrey still didn't saw him since he acted his death. The rap battle stopped betwen Jeffrey and Lil Dizzy, but the war betwen Grove street families and Kilo tray ballas is not over, also the others balla sets.Since the Grove street don't have leader, because CJ, Sweet and Smoke are out of city,
Jeffrey wants to take over the Grove street and becomes a leader of gang.

1.) Driving with high speed crashing in wall without rping injures..
2.) Jumping from tall building without rping injures
Players can PG with /me commands also
1.) Someone is aiming at you, and you just simply write "/me fastly grabs his colt and shoots at individual", because in real life a guy who is aiming at you would react on your movement..
2.) /me grabs the AK from his pocket and shoots towards individual - this is also know as "Gun from ass" but it's PG also.
3.) /me grabs the car and throws it in building..

Neutral for now, but I might change my mind.
You're not that active and I think you won't be able to.
I don't think its good to RP as OG Loc leading the faction, maybe its better for you to RP as Sweet.
Or make your own character?

Well to lead GSF with OG Loc is something unique and I like it also (but it's up to applicant how he want to lead it) Wink

Being active for 3 days doesn't mean you're gonna' be active enough to lead a faction.
I like the creativity, but you missunderstood Q4 to explain some info about GSF.
They aren't the main gang on server, lol. Every gang/crew/organization is equally valuable.

I think you should read something about GSF on gta.wikia to help you understand, or make it look even more pro by comparing it to the articles written about street gangs IRL. You need to write down some info about the gang, not the FACTION. It's not the same. Use SP GSF info, it'll help you.

Yeah, I kinda agree with Jiggy that OG Loc is bad as a leader.
Maybe creating a new character or something, but it's not up to me.

I'll give out my vote in close future.
Good luck and prove yourself!

Please take your irony for yourself.
He is almost always creating roleplays, and roleplays fine because of his personality IG.

Huh, those "3 days", well, I'll try my best with my activity in future, any yes I'll be IG two hours a day maybe more definitly. about GSF I wrote just some basics things about gang and not the whole background story, true. Anyway I edited some things, check it out.

I think that OG Loc is perfect person for leading GSF since CJ, Sweer, Smoke are ICly gone/out of city and since we rping 2013, Jeffrey is an old Grove street member who knows a lot about this gang and how things going on there. He is also known around Ganton and peoples respect him as a loyal member. He is a bit older than back in late 80's.

And yes, I'll try my best, and some pics will come soon.

"creating roleplays" does not mean that he is leadership material and i don't think there's a reason to argue due to that being my opinion and everybody is allowed to shared theres..if they follow the rules and can actually do so. and i have encountered him in doing some stuff in character which a leader shouldn't be doing.

V.I.P Posts : 937 Age : 24

-1. Reasons mentioned by white and also because i dont think og loc should lead gsf ic even though hes a old member hes just not the kind of person. And also because you dont go into rps if you know what i mean

Hitman Posts : 264 Age : 28

Creating Roleplays is a good attribute for a Leader isnt it? Or do you want a Leader which just stands in your turf like a tree doing and saying nothing.
I'm just trying to make you think about your vote once more. He deserves it more then anyone. He's also loyal to GSf. Just because he was inactive doesnt mean he gets inactive again, and if so he can get kicked from the Leadership. I dont see a point in not giving him a chance.

creating roleplays can be done by anybody pretty much, and it's not the only thing needed for a leader. as i said you're getting nowhere with this and should just stop.
