Looks like the jail has been made harder either by the admins or due to a bug

Topic: Busting too difficult?

I have to say first off I was one of the first and foremost people to be in support of having more people in jail and more difficult busting but after looking over the massive list of people in jail now I'm starting to wonder if this is a bit much.

As I write this from jail, I don't really mind all that much. In fact this will draw a lot of money out of the economy too and slow inflation, maybe even lead to deflation, because people are buying others out of jail. I've been bought out twice today for about 88k each time. That's money gone out of the game for good now.

There won't really be much negative affect from this tweak and I'm not complaining (not -really-) but I'm starting to think now that busting just might be a little bit too difficult. Trial and error, I understand, is the only way to see how these things will turn out but what do you all think?

Is busting too difficult? Personally I'm in favour of this tweak but I think it's just a little too far on the difficult and 'not fun any more' side. I'd be happy if it were made slightly easier but still made difficult enough to keep some people in jail.

EDIT: The key here is to find the point where busting is challenging again, people are still stuck in jail to some degree, but its not frustratingly difficult.

I thought you were supposed to get 2 merits for the beginner award?
I only got one, could this be because I went up to inexperienced at the same time?

Well, you were renting it out in the jail....so I can't see a prob

[DB]

Shit he must've got a taste for it, i told him it wasnt gonna happen outside those walls.

[beerman]

can someone bust me out please.

[grint]

Looks like the site has went down.

(nah, its back)

[Mule]

I'd try but it's doing it's nightly backup thing at 4 in the afternoon...

[beerman]

You're doing better than me mule. I can't even get that message, just times out

[Mule]

While trying to bust your friend out, you were caught and put in jail yourself, maybe that will teach you to try break out your friends!

...

Result: You begin filling up the hole but the guards find you. 'Looks like your gonna be here longer than we thought' one of them says.

[beerman]

lol, sorry mate

Muleman 1 hrs 39 mins 3 Was caught trying to break beerman2007 out of jail.

[MercuryRises]

Bloody thing, Everytime I click on any of the areas it tells me that i'm not logged in, even when I am.

[grint]

Been hitting the gym this afternoon...can feel the biceps getting tighter (unlike dappa's arse). So can't bust anyone out yet.

Could maybe throw something up into the window....anything in particular?
