How to make your own hobo army in DarkRP
By Bootleg Froot Loops and 1 collaborators
Got RDA'd by the stinking fuzz or murdered by some junkie on the street when you threw bugbait at them AGAIN? Does people doing that make you feel a certain emotion? Is that emotion anger? So angry that you have the urge to punch your computer? To quit and shut it off completely? Do the sensible thing and report to the admin? WELL FEAR NOT, HOBO BROTHER! Most would report to the admin, but did you know that 85% or more are skrubs or noobs(and 99% of statistics that I say I make myself? Let's just say this is the 1%)? Plus, the unlawful A-hole will probably weasel his way out of it, get back on the streets where he shouldn't belong, killing other unfortunate hobos. Or maybe worse: He's the admin and he's abusing his power going around murdering and arresting the homeless for no reason. You don't want that, do you? Well read on, then!

Step 1: Grab some friends(or you can recruit other hobos, or be a one-man army)
Now, say that you're trying to have a good time and play with a friend. He gets RDM'd or RDA'd or whatever and now he's plssed. You talk to him a bit and congrats! You got 1 new recruit! Or maybe he'll just enter because you know each other. Then, once you've rounded up friends or other hobo bretheren or just yourself(the possibilities are endless!), it's time to move up to step 2.
Step 2: Build your base
Every hobo has a shack built of trash or boxes or spare vending machines, so it's time to have you(and your buddies/bretheren) to build a base together.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

Don't build your base out on the street. If it's too big, people will accuse you of propblocking. Then you'll get banned before you even get started tearing everything up. Build it in an alleyway or in a parking lot or somewhere where a normal hobo would make a hut. You're a hobo, so think like a hobo.

Now, on to step 3!

Step 3: Get some firepower
Unlike most of the homeless on earth, the ones in DarkRP start off with money unless you spend it all on bananas or whatever people buy in DarkRP. So, when you start off, grab some guns for you and maybe for some of your bretheren if they spent all their money on stuff. Then, head back to the hobo base and lock n' load.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

It's best to assign roles in the base(i.e.: Bobby'll be the watchman, Jake'll be the bouncer, John can be the worm, and I'll be the supplier)

Terms

Watchman: A hobo who keeps watch of the entrance and notifies when non-hobos approach the base

Bouncer: A hobo who will set up a password and lift up the door for anyone who gets it right(remember, you're a hobo which means no fancy keypads or fading doors. Those are for the rich. You're not rich)

Worm(optional): A hobo who will join the police force or gang or whatever you're up against to keep an eye on your target.

Supplier: The hobo who will become a gun dealer or medic or whatever to give you and your crew easy access to medical supplies and guns. If you want to stay a hobo, find a way to have connections to others who can give you guns and stuff.

Or if you're going alone, all this is not necessary.

Gradually get attention

If you go out guns ablazin' you won't last 2 minutes. It's best to slowly but steadily let everyone know the hobo revolution is acomin' and it's coming soon. A way that I did this was I had my friend coo any unwanted stragglers who wanted inside our base in and killed them like that. Then it'll get to the point where they'll call the cops on you and the fight is on(it's the same with other gangs or whatever you're putting up with. You kill annoyance to the point where annoyance brings his annoying friends, then the fight is on).
Step 4: Be persistent
Now you've got to the point where the hobo revolution is really on the map(or actually on the map if you or one of your bretheren is filming you and friends striking back at annoying people). You are having an all-out war against the police/mob/cartel/whatever gangs are being put in darkrp. Your friend gets shot in the face, he falls. Don't tell the admins, but in this situation, everybody's going to have enough crap on their plate to notice a young man breaking NLR. Granted, there is probably going to be someone who's going to call you out on breaking that and ban you, but hey, I'm not responsible for you trying to follow in my footsteps, I just made the guide, you performed the action.
Anyway, enough of that. If you don't get noticed, you can probably snag some guns and a cheeseburger if you still have spare cash, or snag it off a dead annoyance that your hobo friend killed, get back in your base and keep fighting. Especially aim for the annoyance in the group because your aim is to throw what he does to people right back at his smug face. And do it to the point where he will eventually punch his computer and hopefully quit. If he's the ringleader of the group, even better! Once the dust settles of your little war, it should cause them to leave, and the hobos shall triumph over the RDM/RDAers!
Step 5: What next?
Congratulations! You've just become a savior of enraging an RDM/RDAer to the point where they ragequit over something they've probably done to people a long while. So, what now? Will you not rest until this group is done with RDM/RDAing once and for all and hunt down his scumbag friends until they punch their computer in rage. And if they report you to the admin, you know that they're a dirty hypocrite and call them out on it. Maybe you'll side with the police force and be hobo crime-stoppers(or if you were fighting the police, make a truce and say that the man you were after was abusing his job and things just really hit the fan when you retaliated), or maybe you will work to see the day where hobos run the streets and the fuzz starts living the struggle that you were living the entire time. The possibilities are all endless! Now go out there and make me proud!



EDIT: Wow, thanks for making this my most popular guide of all time! I couldn't have done it without you, hobo bretheren! Now, a wonderful person came up with an idea to make the official Hobo Army group, so if you liked this guide, be sure to join that group right over here => http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/groups/HADRKP and we can all send the message that we are strong, independent Hobos who don't need no welfare.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

PLEASE NOTE I am not responsible for whatever shenanigans you pull from this guide on servers and get banned for it. I just made the guide because my friend and I thought it would be cool if we were hobo buddies and this guy kept trying to get in our base and he stabbed him, one thing led to another, we were having firefights with the police. I only made this guide if there was a RDM/RDAer bothering you, not some average joe who just happened to step too close to your base. I don't want to be framed for any sort of encouragement and that's why I'm typing this out. So be sure you read this instead of just saying "OMG I GOT BANNED BECAUSE OF YOU FROM MY FAVERIT SURVUR DURR DURR DURR etcetera etcetera" because that's on you, not me. If you don't read this, I will only say "Did you read Step 5's things to remember?" if you didn't I'll refer you to it, no hard feelings. But if you did read it, I'll assume you're lying and tell you to read it again. If you call your mommy the admin who banned you on me, I will refer him to this, and we'll just see how he sorts things out from there. Anyway, enough serious stuff. Go get those annoyances off the streets!

Note to everyone, I said that you should use this if people are RDMing or doing stupid shit, so hopefully the admins will understand your cause.

But you can always just start the revolution and I'd be powerless to stop you from getting banned or whatever, but if you are feeling the need for some good justice or even an uprising, this group's for you(it's a public group, so feel free to join without asking) http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/groups/HADRKP

Note to all of you, 90% of the servers dont allow weapons for hobos and second of all they wont allow uprisings becasue players would be pissed and call admins

To all: You should probably read the rules of a server before doing this because no matter how fun it may seem it can be bannable.

Oh ok.

@Captain Nemo You're not limited to just hobos, you can do this with citizens and other stuff for all I care. I just chose hobos because nobody expects the hobos to do anything, so they don't put laws on them and instead put laws on hitmen or gangsters or drug dealers or whatever when hobos can still do all that with the right resources and can do it right under the nose of admins because of their appearance.

TL;DR: you can do it with another class, but admins will most likely suspect a group of gun dealers or crooks to be up to no good more than a citizen or hobo.
Captain Nemo 26 Mar, 2015 @ 8:50pm 
So why a hobo and not another class?
