Attacking will gain you experience when you win, but you lose experience if you lose. The amount of experience depends on the comparative strength of your enemy, if they are much weaker, you won't get much experience Attacking is a good way to get experience, and exert your superiority over those weaker than you. In order to attack you need 33% energy, and a weapon. When you win a fight you will get a percentage of experience depending on how much stronger you are compared to the person you are attacking. Clicking another link on the page to try and get out of a battle will result in massive experience loss. When you start a fight, you will have the option of using any weapon that you currently have equipped. Guns will require ammunition; weapons, and armor may break during battle. When they do, they will be unequiped and the broken item will be put in your inventory. Broken items can be repaired in the repair shop for a portion of their original value. If you win in battle, you can either mug the other player for money, leave them lay for experience, or hospitalize them for revenge.

Families are a group of players that band together to work for a common purpose, for fellowship, or taking down the losers in a rival family. Families cost $100K to create, and once you buy it, you are the boss of your family. Only players with the player rank “Boss” can create families. Your faction will initially be able to hold 5 members, but will be able to upgrade to more as time goes on. The Boss will be able to assign an under-boss to the family. Under-bosses can have the player rank “Boss” or “Skipper”. There are two types of Families: Crime and Citizen. Citizen Families are basically peaceful and are unable to carry out Organized Crimes. Crime Families are essentially warring families and are able to commit Organized Crimes for profit. The Boss can also select to go to war with another Family. One should be careful about doing this though, as it may come back to haunt you. Staff will delete families with fewer than 3 members after 1 week, so make sure you have members in mind when creating a Family.
