I have a very mixed opinion for this ban. As much as I really like Chief Sosa and want to see him unbanned because of how funny the guy was, in the administrative perspective it is very difficult to justify unbanning someone who has been perma'd 2+ times and there being genuine proof for the unperma. At the same time, I want to vouch for Sosa because his appeal seems apologetic; once again. How would you ensure that these bans don't happen again? It feels like the same mistake may happen in the future and that the appeal wouldn't have been all the worth if that was the case.

Ignore this, thought you were a different day that got banned on the day you made this appeal

Hi, I was the banning staff member. Multiple tickets were made complaining that you were talking OOC and making OOC threats after an altercation that happened. after spectating you for a bit I saw you were claiming to be a staff member on an "alt account" and could get rid of people, not only that but you were saying "say goodbye to your steam account" to players in character. After this transpired I pulled you, spoke to you and informed you that if this repeated itself you would be getting banned, you apologized and said it would not. not 15 minutes later you again make vague threats towards someone finished with "DDOS will be the least of your worries" this is not tolerated behavior. I wish this was the end of it but unfortunately, this behavior continued on our discord, where you first asked to speak with me you then made suicide threats, asking if I wanted to watch, saying you were serious and you would end your life if you had a gun, I sincerely hope you seek and find professional help. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/k3gssG4f1PBLNWDF4?invite=cr-MSw3a0YsMzY2ODgxMDk5 https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/k3fZKd0JOQ2BY_qi1?invite=cr-MSxYRmMsMzU0NzY4NzA3

Steam Name: Qas SteamID: STEAM_1:1:240356511 Discord ID#: qasorok Reason for ban: Don't remember Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology. I want to take responsibility for whatever actions led to my ban. While I don't recall the exact incident since it's been years, I understand that I must have seriously violated the rules or harmed the community in some way, and for that, I apologize sincerely. Why should you be unbanned? Everyone makes mistakes, and I recognize that I clearly crossed a line at some point. While I don't remember the exact details, I'm not here to make excuses. I'm here to acknowledge that, take responsibility, and move forward. If given another shot, I'll stick to the rules and engage with the community the right way. I'm not asking for special treatment, just the chance to prove that I can do better.

+1 haven’t had many interactions but from the application seems worthy

(Unless you have posted a valid LOA): I do Are you familiarized with SAM and/or Nutscript commands?: No Do you acknowledge that lying on this application will result in immediate denial and blacklisting from staff?: I do ------------------------------------------------- Long Answer Questions proceeded with an asterix require a response of 5 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: I have been playing on Diverge for the past 3.5 months, with my experience I've come to notice that there are some time frames where tickets can take up to 20-30 minutes (experienced this when I got my first PK), or times when there are 0 staff online / staff online but AFK. As someone who regularly plays Diverge, I can help the community during the dead hours when there are no staff active. The Majority of my time on Diverge is early afternoon and or late at night, i work night shifts so I like to hop on Diverge to unload, i am used to seeing the server >40 throughout my days and nights. My ideals with being in diverge have been to be kind to the community regardless of how they act. I want to make sure that they feel they are being properly treated within the city and all around have a good time. Watching the community through my time of being here has brought me so much happiness and helping them with any issues would be a dream come true. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: In my nearly 1 month of playtime in Diverge I have kept a nearly clean sheet having 4 notes, 2 of them being related to PET Flags from me being an idiot (I'm sorry Darnell ), 1 for a pamphlet I made, and 1 for RDM (which I believe wasn't right but I'm not here to fight). In my eyes, the time I've spent in city vs the amount of notes I have helps prove that I keep my nose clean. I've grasped all of the rules and I believe that my knowledge of these rules can make sure tickets are dealt with properly and unbiasedly. I am able to get points across with little to no backtalk regarding serious matters due to my manner of speaking and how I give them the news, which can be helpful against rowdy folks who Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): I do not have any previous experience. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: I have not Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: I like to believe that i have a good reputation within the community. I by no means am famous but I do think that a decent amount of people know me. In my time of being in city ranging from civilians to people in the police department members of the community commend me for being nice to them regardless of where they work. I have made alot of friends within the city and I do take pride that so many people respect me because of how I treat them. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: PD Protest https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/k3txf4OZ3taE_ZiJL?invite=cr-MSxIakosMTg3NTU1MzYx Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: 4Lights ------------------------------------------------- Problem Solving Detail step by step exactly the actions you would take. Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: I will wait a few minutes for the ticket to be taken, if the ticket goes unclaimed I will swiftly take the ticket and collect the evidence, (I do NOT know if this is a feature) I will then request someone who is currently on duty while I help the person. With time, hopefully someone will take the ticket and I will pass on the person who got RDMed to whoever takes over and I will go back to what I was doing. You have seen a fellow staff member of higher or equal rank than you abusing fairly often, but never doing anything too noticeable. What do you do?: Collect as much evidence as possible of their actions, anything that can be used to make sure they are punished for their actions. When I believe I have gained enough evidence I will submit the evidence to UA where they will be able to properly deal with the staff member abusing. A member of your faction / friend of yours has a ticket made against them accusing them of RDM’ing, and minging. You know that this person rarely does this when you play with him. How do you proceed knowing this? Does it constitute possible bias?: I would start by asking for any evidence, anything that can help figure out any details that are needed. If there is adequate evidence that proves that the person did indeed RDM and minge I will properly deal with the situation, depending on the severity of their actions it could result in a note if there are no priors, or if it's a serious offence it would result in a ban. Regarding the "Does it constitute possible bias" has a simple answer, anything regarding someone you know can have possible bias, but I can be unbiased when needed regardless of who it is. ---------------------------------------------------------

Your appeal boils down to the following points: 1. I stopped when asked. 2. It's not harassment because I stopped when asked. 3. It's not harassment because freedom of speech lets me accuse him of being a pedophile for no reason There's no acknowledgment of wrong doing, no acknowledgment that accusing people of shit like that is not chill, etc etc. Point 1 and 2 are contested by multiple staff members who say you continued despite being told to stop, you argued with JMZ and continued after the fact despite claiming you instantly listened as well as arguing in the second sit (refusing to comprehend your actions, a consistent theme) You don't seem to grasp the severity of making baseless accusation, yes as a one time joke these comments are whatever, but to continuously, after being told to stop, try to besmirch someone simply because you don't like them or you think they might not like you is irresponsible as hell. Anyone can claim anything but without actual proof you're just hurling baseless libel, which obviously isn't "Freedom of Speech". This isn't the first time you've gone out of your way to harass people you have issues with, I have seen the way you behave in personal messages with people, your overall attitude isn't very much different than a spoiled rich child. I've seen you crash out about when being made to leave factions or for getting pk'ed. You have on multiple occasions professed your 'hatred' of persons in the community and claimed you could easily go find them, maybe to harm them, etc. Harassing or other factions on alternate characters, you have already been reported for this poor behaviour and I wanted to see if this was a one time crash out or indicative of a repeated pattern of schizophrenia. Ultimately this proves it, I liken your behaviour to that of a child. It's a video game server, you get too invested, too emotional, you ascribe issues in roleplay to that individual's character as a person and bring the beef OOC constantly. It's embarrassing. I think the permanent ban here is appropriate, if this harassment of Riggs was the only issue with you I honestly would not mind reducing the ban, but based on your inability to take responsibility, the other past threats and harassments, concentrated efforts to damage factions on alt chars and the very suspicious arrests you were making on your PD char I think Boomroasted's decision to extend this to a permanent ban is more than justified. I don't know how old you are or why you behave the way you do but I think you need a serious period of self reflection, not only to realize what you did was wrong and why but to actually fundamentally change who you are as a person, because as it stands it does not seem enjoyable to be around you. Consider this an intervention. You may re-appeal this ban in a few months. Incase you don't understand why I am denying this appeal ATM, read here: I think your have a problem with your anger and emotions, I think you lash out verbally when things do not go your way, in RP, related to staff, in DMs, regarding money. I think it's immature and a negative trait and to allow you to continue to behave this way is damaging for the people you interact with and your own well being.

I hear you, but if you read what I said just above what you said. I just said it shouldn't have been said. I reacted out of anger based on how he was treating me and thats not okay. Not once did I justify the comment said, as it was wrong. I justified it being classified as harassment, as I stopped the negativity asked of me to be stopped. I will send my formal apologies regardless of the appeal decision, I am just confused how you dont see me trying to take accountability at all?

I could care less about the effort you put into trying to justify your actions, at the end of the day your actions were wrong, and were harassment PERIOD. I am done commenting on this appeal, as you still have not taken a single once of responsibility, or are in way taking anything I am saying to heart. You are deflecting the blame, and I'm done sitting here trying to bang my head against a wall trying to get you to understand that your actions were wrong, and you should take responsibility. It is clear you don't want to accept responsibility, if your actions were not against server rules, there would be someone supporting your claims, I have not seen a single person supporting you. SO with that, good luck with your appeal bud.

My appeal has been much more than " My ban is unfair, I did nothing wrong." can we please be for real? if you look at other ban appeals, and see the effort I put into making sure I genuinely didn't break any rules, you can see the difference. harassment is the repeat offense, I stopped after JMZ pulled me. I 100% had nothing left to say about that subject, and am perfectly fine with saying It should have been said. however in the rule itself freedom of speech is literally stated, I made him uncomfortable and for that I'm sorry. However when made aware, I DID INFACT STOP. Maybe I don't know you well, but I'm basing everything off of this situation, why? because its all I know? It does seem very bias, as like I mentioned above I DID NOT harass him. You know what you are... a criminal, he kept arguing that I had no reason to arrest him. I did. multiple. I was sent back from a sit, and continued the rp. No comments made about the metagame knowledge? or how he started the interaction? Didn't think so...
