Rehab not working for any other non-subs? I've had 2 gangers there in rehab for at least 2-3 months, no change at all.

This topic was split off as a separate topic for discussion and for Sam to review.

It does work, just not as well as we hope. I had 3 guys in rehab and the only one that showed improvement was the one who had a minor addiction. My other two were heavy addicts and they used rehab for almost 2 full RL months without any noticeable change.

Dirt, can you list your characters names ID numbers so Sam can check these when he has a spare moment, thanks.

I am sure there are more than a few players possibly having issues with this.

I had six gangers in Elms for rehab. One of them was a Motivator 3. All of them saw improvement over two weeks, with four of them completing rehab last night.

Unfortunately, one of the gangers leaving is the motivator. So I expect the last two to sit there for quite a while now.

I dont fire them because I couldn't hire any replacements for them, and also have a lot more gangers that need re-hab but why bother till it works for these 2 gangers?

Dirt, you are not a current subscriber. So that may be the reason your guys are not showing signs of improvement. Weekly Training is done at the same time as Rehab, which is not available to non subs. Still, we need to hear from Sam that if this is correct or if it should be changed so rehab is made available to all player types.

Sorry for the delay! Yes, rehab is processed at the same time as training and as such non-premium players could not use it. However, that's a bit unfair so I have just modified the code so that anyone can use rehab.

Thank you Sam, that makes a lot more sense for the new players, especially for the ones who have not had a chance to subscribe.

drunks are a hopeless cause?

Did you know, IRL, if you go to a AA meeting, you have about 3% chance of still being sober in a year? if you quit cold turkey with no help you have about 2.8% chance of being sober in 1 year. If you use religion to quit, you have about 2% chance of being sober after a year.

sure a rehab works, but it's only a fraction of a percentage more effective then quitting on your own and in darkwind quitting on your own is not even a option.

besides AA based rehabs all work on the principle of religion. They don't cure anyone that way, they just replace the chemical addiction with a god addiction. Trading altered reality world for an illogical fantasy world.

Rehabs can get in the 5% range for permanent cure. There are alot of factors involved, the most important ones being the person wanting to be cured, good support system and having an environment for the person after rehab that is the least likely to get them to relapse. Its well worth it even if it cures just 1 person out of 100, or 1,000.
