BOOM BOOM BABYYY

Due to the hostage situation in City Hall - Los Santos today, I have decided to open up the ammunations. It seems we have to protcet ourselves and not rely on the police, if terrorists can enter the city. UNITED WE STAND, PROTECT EACH OTHER

Less than 1 hour remaining to the protest! GATHER UP, BE HEARD!

Citizens of San Andreas I call each and every one of you to stand up and raise your voice, against the lockdown we are forced to live in. The virus is gone, why do we need to be locked up again? The goverment has allowed such closure, not allowing any trucker, farmer, mechanic or taxi to do their job properly. The goverment is allowing people to travel extra kilomiters to travel around the state. The goverment is turning this into a dicatorship by not asking their own citizens if they want this closure for the so called "safety" I ask everyone who suffering from such closure to STAND UP and raise their VOICE - Satruday 17:00 ((CET SERVER TIME)) at the main LS-FC tolls. WE STAND UP TO SUCH DICTATORSHIP, TOGETHER! #voiceofthevoiceless #antidictatorship #iwanttogobackhome

Hello citizens of Los Santos, As the owner of both Ammunations, I want to inform you that I have decided to close the Ammunations in Los Santos and cut them out of use for the unforseen future. Due to the large amount of attacks and murders caused in the city, that are done with my weapons (despite the weapon license being a thing) I am withdrawing my stocks from the city. I have felt unsafe in the city myself and have been rethinking of what should I do regarding my businesses there. As of now I am residing outside of Santos, for my safety and I advise all citizens to keep theirselves safe. I will still keep open the ammunations I own outside of the city, as the crime acitvity isn't high there. Stay safe, keep the streets clean, we will live to see a brighter future. Regards, #Pete3Ammunations

Comienzo Desafortunado Back in 1976 a new Cartel was formed in Mexico, a powerful organization took over a lot of drug lines from a destroyed crime syndicate, after a huge drug war. That year the Almas Cartel was formed. Ruling to this day the streets of Mexico, the powerful cartel was feared by many and not touched by the law. The head of the cartel - Emilio Almas was a feared man, among his men and his rivals. He ruled with a heavy hand and had no problem facing anybody. He had one little pet peeve - women. His wife was aware of that and was hardly against it, for his unfortunate luck, she was the daughter of a powerful man in USA, who he needed the connections of - hence he had to keep his pants sealed. But you know when they forbidden fruit is much, much more wanted. One of the maids feel in Emilio's hands one night, months later, she learnt that she is pregnant. Having to hide that, Almas Senior sent the maid to the states, where none would look, or care for her and her unborn child. So on July 7th 2000 Andrade Almas was born. La Sombra Andrade's mother didn't have the financial support of the Cartel's Jefe. She was all alone raising the kid, working two jobs, begging, stealing to put food on the table. As a young kid Alms Jnr. wanted everything a normal kid would want, due to the lack of money he got it himself. Six year old kid stealing of a bike, six year old kid robbing wallets of rich men on the street. He earned money by stealing the local gangs important items or spying on others. By the age of twelve he was planning small, but well calculated robberies, not being caught once gave him the nickname "La Sombra" - The Shadow. At fifteen he started participating in local gang's fights, not the best with his punches he got beaten up quite a lot. Making him tougher than the rest of his fellow teenagers, he wasn't afraid of much, despite his lack of fighting skills. Lucha, Almas, Lucha! Not long after Almas found his passion - boxing. Sadly with the lack of money the only gym or training ground for him was the street. Training with the older and watching old DVDs of matches, Andrade learned a few moves, enough to keep his head on his shoulders. Few years passed, sadly Andrade's mom wasn't in her peek age, at retirement age, close to sickness she couldn't work...the teenager had to earn for both. Working was not an option for him, as the payment wouldn't be enough to feed his need for luxurious sneakers, nor chains. Earning by stealing and fighting, kept it together, until one day on the way to the store, Almas's mom got shot. Rushed to the hospital, her live was saved, due to the damage to her organs, she had to be put into induced coma. Andrade had to earn for him, for his mother's medical bills now. Knowing that his fists aren't enough to mug people, or compete with other street thugs he got his eyes on cold, ranged weapons. El Idolo It is rare to see a thug on the streets beyond twenty-five, Most end up 6 feet under, or behind bars. This is why Andrade was an idol in the eyes of most kids around the block, who wanted to follow his footsteps and earn enough money for their pleasure. Almas had a scheme figured - he would find good hits, either on men or stores, assemble a small group and hit it for the money, or worthy items. That way he earned enough to treat his needs and pay for his mother's medical bills. This is how he got to be called "El Idolo' - The Idol. To this day he is on the street, living as much as possible for his area peaceful life, earning of robberies and planning such. This young man might have not been raised by his father, but sure as hell had his brains and goals of his. To this day you can see Almas roaming around the streets of Los Sanos's Ghetto side with his fancy low-ride, planning on the next hit. ((This is the newest addition to my characters, I will be roleplaying as Andrade during my days in SAMP onward, hope you liked the story and would like to follow and see how he develops))

Would love to see how this develops

An deireadh After a few months of tremendous dominance from the Mob, Dunne was pleased with the results. He never expected it to be this slik. The so called "war" that started with Gambinos for Los Santos's dominance was entertaining for him, after managing to take the upper hand Pete was on top of his game. Everything he did brought the Irish money, all the members were fed and earned enough to retire. You know how when cats are about to die, or they get sick the run away? Tigers do it as well. At a normal Friday night at his bar, The Irish Tiger was enjoying some high-class cognac and some good ol' cocaine, sadly he got a stroke and had to cut off the rock 'n rolla act. Thinking it's just from a low-class white powder he didn't give it much thought, after awhile tho, he felt drained. Coughing, not being able to sleep, barely any energy to get out of bed, he knew something was wrong. After a few tests and a few doctor's appointments, Dunne new he was ill. Not curable and not fatal (for now) the disease was killing him - not physically but mentally. So he did what any egocentric, proud man would in his position - left without notice. None heard a word, none knew....the only trace he left was one rose on his dead wife's grave. The Tiger was gone, no longer the King of the jungle, no longer the hot-headed bastard that beats up wankers for fun. No longer a Godfather or a man, just a shell of a once great Irish lad. ((( This is the first character that I give a proper finish to, I really enjoyed the journey I had with him, I really hope everyone who interacted with me in any way, were left with a good impression, I will be bringing someone else to live soon, thanks to those who read my story and those who RPed with me. Thanks to TIM and it's members. See you around))

Tá na leoin imithe After deep cycle of drugs, drinks, pills and a senseless violence and torturing Dunne realized he is just trapped in a magical circle and he needed to move out of that. Snapping back to reality he realized he had feds on his tail and a Mob to help out to. After walking back to his normal stance, accepting his wife's betrayal and death, Pete did what he did best - went on the streets and showed everyone that the Irish aren't scared of the feds, nor anyone else. The lions are gone, welcome the new king of the jungle - The Irish Tiger. After a betrayal between the Kavanaghs, the main leadership force in the Mob the Godfather himself disappeared, along with him a big portion of the leadership was gone or murdered. But from the ashes the Irish did rise back up. Dunne not only took it into his hands to lead up the Mob, but formed an alliance greater than any before. The Pact was strong, despite a big change happening the Irish were led with a strict hand by none other than the Tiogair. On top of the food chain, leading the rest to greatness. After some time people got used to the change, most embraced it and those who did not fell under the personal wrath of the new Godfather. New deals were made, new products were being pushed, new tactics were being used, but one thing never changed - Dunne's confidence and self-awareness. Even after all that he was focused and ready for anything, after all he was below the bottom and managed to come out on top without a flinch. What does the future hold for Dunne and his Mob, we'll see.

Oke, time for me to join in on this as I think out of all the people I wanted this to prosper the most as I was hyped for it for years. -First I would like to note that one of our Owners got banned of the UG discords while he was not toxic, aggressive nor offensive towards any of the UG staff, showing how professionally you handle things. - dkluin wasn't willing to provide us some things such as a complete list of weapon names, vehicle model names, tuning component names and such from the source code. Which resulted in a lot of manual work, while there was already barely time. There is SOME data in the documentation, but to develop and add features/components we needed raw data which we didn't have access to so Mikro had to dig manually of their site for everything. This proves that you didn't really have a real grasp of your own creation and how it will prosper. I think because you put on so many hours into this you thought it was going to be full on success, that it would put out SAMP of the equation. It didn't. You were saying? When your own leader disrespects and "bashes" the platform you have based your mod you can't really talk about professionalism and demand respect. LocMax put tons of hours of hardwork on that server and abandoned the developing of our SA:MP one (which is quite successful BTW, with features equal to the ones in OGRR) so he could make it work. Also the fact that there is no changelog registered doesn't mean he didn't work on the server's updates., despite the lack of players. Another blind statement of yours, I really think you guys just can't admit that the project flopped and fail to see what you did wrong. When UGMP opened people wanted to explore EVERYTHING - weapons, all of the cars, maps. The only server that was stable and whitelisted was ours, a ROLEPLAY server. You might not like rolepaly servers, but I think you know the concept of such servers you have to earn cash to buy things and as it is sticking to realism we can't make available every weapon or car to be buyable, let alone usable for everyone for free. We needed only those few minutes of free roamers and high-ranked Underground staff to be seen flying around to think the server is a joke by all the roleplayers that were expecting the release of UGMP so they can join and roleplay in a server. After seeing people using "non-roleplay methods" in a ROLEPALY server, of course they will have a low opinion. So our server was screwed for being the first one to open, rather than rewarded. Pushing away the player that we actually wanted to attract, which were lost not only for the server, but for the platform. - The Truth was quite frequently unprofessional and using his position for malicious things - The truth's public shaming of the server in UG discord If by worked hard you mean flying with me in a car to show me the lighting of two buildings during the night, while we wanted to test out bugs two days before the release - YES he did work hard. Not counting the random shooting that led to us being knocked down, that led to us crashing (God forbid, your mod had a bug) Not to mention his hunger for power and the lust to acquire assets as stated by LocMax above. Ugh...WHAT? Valrise's team best effort was to launch a server on your platform where people can enjoy roleplaying at. None tried to bring you down The REAL Conclusion: While the UG team, tries to blame the lack of features in OGRP and the attitude of ours, they neglect the fact that their platform itself now is empty, while we have a stable SAMP Server running, proving the fact that nothing was wrong with Valrise's UGMP server, but with UGMP itself. Furthermore the server is partly built and formed by it's playerbase - which the platform lacks, so you can't expect from us to have a healthy server running. If it was our fault I don't think other UGMP servers (you are probably aware which) would give up on developing/releasing the server on their platform. Your ambition and hours put in this project makes you fail to see your mistakes and it follows wit denying any critics as you seek the blame in others and not yourselves. NOTE: Despite you thinking we want to bring you down, I really hope a reality check hits you and you make this mod work and attract players and have a successful run. Good luck.

I want to thank all who tested, developed or worked on the server as I legit was fanboying and hoping this would work and we made the server out of thin air in negative time. Even tho it failed I am thankful for at least trying and spending some time in-game

Thank you all for participating, if any of you have pictures, videos POST IT HERE

Previously hosted by Pete Dunne in Ireland, now planning to move to Valrise! It's a live attendance brawl between a bunch of men with a bit of a twist.

Name: Most suited time for you in CET: Or just show up with a pair of balls to the event in-game. Rules and Rewards of WAR GAMES! Rules are simple: After a random shuffle it is decided who versus who will fight and how many people will fight at once. All men/women step in the arena without weapons (they can have armors if they bring some themselves) They start fighting once the announcer starts the fight They can use all the weapons that are pasted in the arena PRIOR to the match starting - weapons placed by the audience CAN NOT be used and you will be DQed if you do. The last person standing (not knocked) wins. REWARDS: The winner of each fight wins - 100,000$ At the end the winners of all fights will fight against themselves for the big reward- 300,000$ Further down the line if the event is successful we will have an ALL STAR WAR GAMES where the winners will fight for 1,000,000$ You can earn money without participating in WAR GAMES! If you are too afraid/old/lazy or just don't wanna fight you can still earn money in a few ways: 1. You can be a medic reviving the knocked guys - I will pay you a bit of cash for helping 2. You can organize bets and bet with friends - GAMBLEEE 3. If you are a DJ I am going to pay you if you play during WAR GAMES some cool fight/motivational songs. I am really keen on this idea to work so I will do my best to make it happen, if you have any questions let me know I will answer. See you on Sunday for WAR GAMES. (the name is taken of a PPV event)

Grá agus bás The party animal, the strip club Guru, the one man band! That is how you would name Dunne if you wouldn't count all the ruthless stuff he did...or at least that was, before he found her. The love of his life, fearless as him and brave. The pause button when he would turn red. She was everything to him, two things he cared about - ruling the world and his queen. She was fast introduced into the Irish Mob. Learning from him she became an earner and a loyal soldier. For the first time ever, Dunne was ready to settle down and focus on maturity. Sadly sooner or later the two worlds collide, mishaps from her side led to Pete having to act against her. That led to betrayal and love rapidly turned into hate, Pete got caught off-guard by her and almost got killed by the hands of his own wife. But the hunter became hunted, his ex-wife fled and ran into FBI's protection. After betraying the whole Mob, and breaking any code of silence there was no exit other than death for her. Despite the protection of the feds she got gunned down by the very people she would call friends. Despite Dunne not being around, he made sure to give out the order of the execution. Make no mistake, Pete loved her as much as he cared about the Mob, but he had to make the decision. Shattered, in a blackhole, lost he turned back to the bottle. Despite all that his fate was not sealed, the story continued.
