≫ WHAT'S UP WITH GATEWAY ROLEPLAY? ≪

  • We've been radio silent for a long time now. We posted an announcement in our Discord server back in April of 2025, but never updated the forums. So what's up with Gateway Roleplay?

    After 5 long years, we've decided to place the development of Ties That Bind on an indefinite hold.

    This doesn't mean it's cancelled. We fully intend to run Ties That Bind: What Lies Beneath and Ties That Bind: City of Angels eventually. But to do so, we need to take a step back. In the meantime, we'll be working on smaller, invite-only projects.

    Thank you to everyone who has stuck with us this long! MindGate and I (Pika) have been working on this server for over a decade now. It truly is a passion project for us.

Title: Handgun potentially stolen without RP/through powergaming
Character Name: Lynch

On August 9th at 10 PM EST, Pika took my bag from me on her admin account and put it in the storage lockers in front of the western gate into Monroe. I needed to leave the bag, which had my weapons in it (a lumber axe, a crossbow, a hunting knife and a Glock 21 with ~5 bullets), at the gate because Lynch is a guest in Monroe, not a citizen. I couldn't place the bag in the locker myself because somebody had padlocked one of them and the other was full, so Pika did it for me.

~2.5 hours later, at 12:30 EST, when I got my bag and left Monroe my Glock 21 was missing. All the other weapons in my bag were still there, but the handgun was gone. It's possible it was stolen by a member of the security team who might have a key to the RP lock on the containers, but there weren't many people online during that 2.5 hour span, and I don't think any of them were security team members. So it seems pretty likely to me that either somebody took it without roleplaying the locked container or it glitched out in some way.

I've gotten a chance to look through the logs, but I couldn't find anything. It makes no sense. 3 other people accessed the container in that time span, but all of them removed duffel bags. Lynch's bag is a big hiking bag if I'm remembering correctly. I'll have someone else look over the logs and see if they can find anything I may have missed, but it's looking to me like it just disappeared somehow.

I looked through the logs once more. I found that Lynch set the bag down briefly and Charles picked it up then immediately placed it back down, but the Glock was already missing at that point. I'm ruling this as a glitch and I'll provide her with a new gun. I'll close the ticket for now.
