Each week we at the Buzz interview two random players of Bootleggers. How random? Well, we go to the Users Online, close our eyes and we have a few clicks. Awesome, we know. So, here are the two interviews of this week! Enjoy!
tsud5tsud
Alrighty, Dust2Dust, could you introduce yourself to the Bootleggers Community? Well I'm dust2dust. Been playing since 04, most people know me. I'm 20 years old. From California. Um, 6'1, average built 88 killo's.
Do you work/study/robbing banks?! I'm a drop out, fuck school. I used to do something similar to robbing banks to get by, not saying what, but other than that, at the moment I work. I used to play varsity football back then, but then got kicked off when the school found out I smoked. Um, other than that not a big sports fan, don't watch it or anything. Not a TV fan either. I enjoy hanging out with whatever close friends I got left and having a smoke with whiskey. Um, oh! And my car, I love working on my car. Currently it's done, so I'm probably gonna sell it and buy a new project!
Tell us about your car! I push a 2004 Mercedes C class. Coupe. Evolution rims, Gucci interior, tweaked supercharged, chipped, with a custom built exhaust to add that few extra HP. In total it's a 1.8L engine, 240 something HP. Built in Wifi, so I get wifi every where I go, all speakers where exchanged to nice Sony ones, then minor stuff like smoked stop lights, under dash glow, Xenon lights, LED's. it's lowered by 2cm's but that's not really noticeable. Hide away plates, limo tints, viper car remote starter. The paint is stock and its nearly perfect. I have pictures I'd love to share, but they're on my computer, so we'd have to wait till I get home. There's a few more things I've done to it, but can't remember lol. Oh, and VERY minor stuff, air filters, strut bars etc.
Alrighty! What about the Wifi? Why the hell do you want that?! I was working (and still am) on either a) removing the stereo and implementing a mini iPad in there. Or b) putting a notebook (a small little laptop) into the glove compartment, on springs, so when opened it would smoothly roll out. And I would need Internet to use the notebook if I do that. And have it connected to the AUX port so I can practically play bootleggers on the go while I'm in my car it just seems like a fun mod, and. You have the power of the Internet at your finger tips (maps, music, Facebook etc). You can never really finish modding a car, you can only stop.
Haha, awesome! Bootleggers time! Current state of the game; your opinion?! Ah, the big question. Well, in my opinion BL is in a little tough spot. People leave and rarely come back, and too be honest I wouldn't say it's BSF's fault. However mods and admins do play a big part, another big part is played by the players. So I feel as if we the players have to kind of work on bringing BL back. Then there's another part, the advertising. Long ago BL was advertised on gaming websites, where we the players would go to other websites and vote for bootleggers, in return we got points, or bullets, I can't remember now tbh. But that's a factor. Anyways, BL is struggling but there's hope. Too much to mention for the buzz to write in a small article unfortunately
Seems legit. Opinion of the current Staff? Yellow minions included. I feel like BSF should bring back mods like RazTaz, And, well lets keep sky. Riserva's been missing in action for a while, so can't say much about him. Sky is fucking awesome! Alda has been turning around lately. Used to not like him and his attitude, but lately, it's been much better. Now Mika, got a lot to say, but I'll try to keep it short. Unfair as far as bans go. Unfair as far as sides go (he takes sides with certain people and goes easy on them while waving his ban stick at everyone else.) Gets butt hurt a lot and starts taking things personally. A lot of bans are based on personal issues. In my opinion EVERY ban made by Mika should be over looked by BSF himself. Anyway lets not give Mika too much attention, he might ban me for being right. The yellow guys are cool, I kind of feel bad for them though, they're an open target, they can't hide or go UG. So they're just pretty much out there, and I feel like they're doing a pretty cool job as far as interaction goes.
Awesome! What feature would you introduce if you were BSF2000?! The option to block the casino section. I lost so much lately, but I can't help it! And perhaps the Russian roulette in the casino section, where people can risk their account. But it'd be something in a sense of kinda like the poker page. Long to explain, so lets just say casino block!
Fair enough! Favourite feature? It's a tie between the achievements (awards given for ranking), and the graveyard. DEFINETLY not the private investigators and gymnasium haha
Rofl! Random questions pl0x. Favourite vegetable? I like potatoes. So much you can do with em!
Fair enough. Favourite crew on Bootleggers? There's a lot that I respect. Shout out to Winter Hill Gang, Enemy of the State, Novus Ordo Seclurem (Lyam and Hayden we miss you bitches) Death Row, The Deadly Aliance, and of cours, Mobb Figaz, my first crew, my first crew I was boss of, and no other crew will ever be as great as Mobb Figaz was.
Favourite Superhero? DEFINETLY don't have one, sorry spent about an hour thinking. Got nothing.
Kill or Hitlist? Kill, always kill, hitlist gives them an opportunity to to buy off and ruins the surprise!
Beer or Wine? Beer, hands down, can't handle wine. Too rich for my blood.
Favourite car? It's a tie between the C63 AMG or the Ferari California
Aaaaand, what's behind your name?! The nameeeeeee, back when I was in MF and we went off stats for a few weeks, I took refugee in another crew. That's right! Winter Hill Gang! Anyway, a member from TDA really stood out. Helped me with OC's etc. his name was Ashes2Ashes. And when my account died, I made Dust2Dust and joined TDA. Then later became the boss of Mobb Figaz and people just remembered me as Dust2Dust
Lannister
Alrighty Lannister! Could you introduce yourself to the Bootleggers Community?! hello my name is tom im from the U.K im 23 years old. I have been playing bootleggers on and off for about 6-7 years and think i probs will for a while lol.
Awesome Tom! Do you study/work in real life? im working atm yes, i got at a hoilday resort in the kitchen untill i find something more long term 6 days a week i might add lol. i did study my A-levels and wanted to go to uni but i didnt go as i wasnt 100% on what i wanted to do, so here i am now.
So you're a cook?! hmmmm no not really, im more of what we call a 'floater' i just sort of help out whoever needs helps. cleaning, washing, preparing the food, topping things up. That sort of thing.
I see! What about your hobbies? I like to play a little football, but only with friends nothing serious (not fit enough for that lol). I enjoy going out with my mates having a drink, or simply chilling out watching a film or playing on the xbox. I also like to play RLT in real life
Any luck with the Roulette?! hmmmm sometimes i only bet small amounts really, im to scared to lose anything big. If i can make about £30 to £40 on a £5-£10 bet thats good enough for me
Haha awesome! Back to Bootleggers; what is your opinion of the current state of the game? To be honest shyguy, i think if it gets much worse the bulk of the bootleggers players will quit all together. A few years back i remember seeing close to 2000 players online at any given time, now we are lucky to have 200, its a shame.
What would you do if you were BSF2000?! I honestly dont know, i dont know how easy it would be to advertise something like this but im sure that would attract more players. and maybe get an app for the game, with so many people on iphones and ipads that would make it easier. However i think the main problem for already existing players is the random shootings. Put in all this work and one day you logg on and your dead for doing nothing wrong. i know right now im in a crew so that comes with risk but i have had accounts where i have been shot when not in a crew for no reason
How to stop these random shootings? no idea you tell me lol
Rofl! What's your favourite feature on Bootleggers? ooooooo thats a tough one... for some reason i really like to lose alot of money on keno and i love our crew forum
Awesome! Talking about crews... Your opinion of the current crews on Bootleggers? hmmmm well this round i have only been in TPR, and personally i love it, i plan on staying here. The other crews seem pretty strong aswell.However i think the current crews have some work to do before reaching the fame of TDA, TO, TR ects. They are legendary among the bootlggers community and will be for some time to come, but i dont think it would do any harm if they dropped a couple of spots, theres always a couple of crews that come and go with in the space of a month or so
Interesting. What about the feature itself? Does it need a change? I think they are ok as they are. If i had to say something maybe they should add something to make it more beneficial to being in a crew, maybe crews get a little more income or they can buy there own personal bullet factory. I used to play a game slimier to this one and crews could buy business which would in turn give members income. now i dont think they should do this as sooner or later the money just gets stupid and the game economy gets out of hand, but maybe something along these line perhaps
Interesting! Random questions incoming! Favourite band?! lol errrr im not really a fan of music i dont really listen to it (no im not joking). Maybe queen?
Queen is awesome. Favourite roulette number? ooooooo thats easy 0. i have to have atleast something on that on bootleggers and RL lol
Rofl! Most awesome Pokemon? haha been a while since i looked in to this, but i remember always liking mewtwo or kadabra (just had to google that lol)
ZOMG. Mario or Luigi?! has to be Mario
Kewl. Most beautiful female on the planet? ooooooooooooo man this is the hardest one yet lol, well a couple of days ago i started to watch lost again so at this moment im love with evangeline lilly lol
Seems legit! Alright Lannister, what's behind your name?! im sure most people will already know as i get messages here and there saying how amazing game of thrones is lol. but i LOVE game of thrones and lannister is one of the character names in the series. I wanted stark but that was already taken so went with lannister.
Fair enough! Two awesome interviews this week! A huge thanks to tsud5tsud and Lannister for the interviews! I hope you liked it, till next week!
