Its time for a rework of the busting system. Its time for players to be able to see their busting skill (hidden) and to make a career out of busting much like revivers. At its current state busting is just a tool to get some merits, there is no real flavoured text when you bust someone out and there is so much potential to make this section of the game so much better.
I suggest a rework, where busting is connected to some CPR positions in some crimes (maybe it is atm maybe its not) and where we can see our busting skill much like racing skill, reviver skill and hunting skill.
CE should be connected to the Busting Skill (BS) where higher BS gives more CE and other factors determining CE is time and lv of the imprisoned player.
Busting should also be integrated in the crime chain where some players can bust out other prior of a hard crime and get a boost much like the crime chain we have today. Its my understanding that busting has its own chain (making it harder to bust as one keeps busting) but there is no connection to crimes 2.0 making crimes there easier.
That would make people be able to strive for a high Busting Skill in order to do and succeed with some higher lv crimes boosting the busting faction perk/tree in the process.

Hi and welcome to my Auction, Property and Hosp Service!
I am Vita a semi-veteran in the game who can help you with the following:
-----------------
Auction Service
How it works:I will help you auction anything you want to sell in the auction house to help you save on the auction fee. Below you can see the various conditions for my service, were time the object will be available the auction house determines the savings. After the object has been sold according to the length of time you wish to have it in the auction house, I will deduct my cost and set up a trade so you can accept the money in a safe way. I will also send the event for you for transparency.
I dare to say I am one of the most trustworthy players in the game, working as a medical dr irl (if that helps).
Some objects that are of higher value will be promoted in the post below as "hot right now". Double orange bonus and red weapons will be prioritized if the current demand is high.
Feel free to contact me about any questions/inquiries
NEW: I also help create 4225 happy or other PIs for a small fee of 3m/per.
* 4225 happy PI costs 1.655B * 3725 happy PI costs 930m
--------------------- Hosp Service
I can also hosp you for a small fee of 4m (or 5 xan), approx 7-8h (if faction has no reduced hosp time). Suitable for traders. Small bully contracts can also be ordered (contact me for more information). For larger perma hosp contracts I recommend my home faction CR.
Now when we have some racing in personal statistics this one feels pretty obvious. Let it primarily be based on driving skill and secondarily on races won, so if two individuals who share same driving skill can be separated on races won..
Lets upvote this now and make it happen, it should have been there long time ago..
This is exactly what this post is about. The two faced situation about suggestions. Here we can read Ched himself saying " at least a comment". After what? 3 years?
No one knows if their suggestion is shit or not. There is no feedback in a reasonable time so people wait for years for a review that might not even come. I would be more happy to get a straight "this is shit" after 250+ votes then be in the dark for years just to hope the suggestion one day will get a review.
You have a good point that the quality of the suggestions needs to be improved Pen. I do think people see it as a waste of time to "flesh out" their ideas since we already have a lot of suggestions that has reached the 250 + upvotes and been waiting years for a reply. In Cheds own post from 2020 he says " may be looked into" and "at the very least make a comment on those getting 250 upvotes". But there is no comment in a lot of suggestions passing 250 upvotes nowdays, hell some have been waiting years and keep spamming their own already upvotes 250 votes + to get some kind of feedback. Players dont know if their 250+ suggestions will be looked into nor when they can expect some kind for feedback nowdays, the whole suggesting section is just a mess and interestingly it has almost the same amount of posts as GD...
Yee sadly this is the consequence of poor handling about suggestions hence this post. I hope Ched will read this post and give us some kind of clarity or else the younger generation will just stop suggesting/ think its a waste of time with suggestions.
Thanks Leafeh. I updated the post. The idea was to show just a few of probably many many waiting for some king of "review" not knowing if a suggestion will be "looked into" or not. I added that last part as well when I updated the post.
I have been around for a while, there used to be a reply on suggestions made back in the days. First it was 100 upvotes and then later changed to 250 votes. I get it, the first threshold was low and I remember that I thought to myself when I read it was changed to 250 that Ched will prioritate these much more and take a look at them in a reasonable time. However, the current situation in the suggestions section of the forums is out of hand.
When I read the post above I assume we will get some kind of review where in the past 80-90% has been a "NO". One out of 10 suggestions ever made might maybe be feasible with a big "Maybe"..
But currently even with the 250+ threshold suggestions keep collecting dust in the cyberspace waiting years for a reply. Whats the point of suggestions. I dont like to complain and it was years ago I posted in GD, but I really would like to know why it has become like this?
Are our suggestions not worthy a answer in a reasonable time? Have our suggestions been so bad in the past that devs dont even bother spending 5min on one of them when reaching the 250+ votes?
Here are just a few 250+ votes suggestions waiting for some kind of "review".
I could probably find even more. We reached the 100 000 active members recently. Is it not important to show the younger generation that their "suggestions" could be part of this game as well one day? Is this the way to do it? By first increase the threshold and then ignore (it surly feels like a ignored part of the game).
Why not just take away the whole "suggestions" secition Ched? Whats the point of it nowdays? Some people have been waiting Years,yes thats right Years, to get a review.
And "May be looked into"...
If a player collects 250+ upvotes for a suggestion at least a small review could be sent to that person right? Something like "this has been looked into and is not feasible". The whole waiting for years for a review not knowing if it will be "looked into" or not is just wrong.
