-1 the type of person to pour milk first

I’ve never talked to you…

better then sage +1

oh i just saw the format i was supposed to submit the appeal in omg im sorry idk how this forums works i get confused sometimes

-1 actual brainlet with 0 roleplay experience whatsoever just does stupid shit metagames and gets banned then whines about it like a little bitch in diverge gen

Hey Pimpin and DivergeNet team, I’m reaching out to appeal the 1-week ban I got for "Mass VDM | LTAP" on your Garry’s Mod server. I’m pretty new to the server and didn’t even know what LTAP meant until now, which I guess stands for "Leave To Avoid Punishment." I swear I didn’t mean to do that. I was playing super late, like until 3 AM, and after the incident I parked my car for about 5 minutes before logging off to go to bed because I was so tired after hours of playing. I had no idea that could look like I was avoiding punishment. I feel awful about the Mass VDM thing too since I’m still figuring out the rules, and I’m really sorry for any hassle I caused. I had a family meeting in-game today that I was excited for, so I’m hoping you might let me off with a warning this time since it was an honest mistake. I’ll make sure to read all the rules and follow them from now on. Thanks so much for taking a look at my appeal, I’d really love to keep playing on the server!

In-Game Name(s): None RN RIP Antonio Caleno Steam Name: killerman10118 Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/killerman10118/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:569612902 Discord Username: string_000 Age: 17 When did you first join the server: March 2021 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): cant get in game rn but its a few months sorry Time Zone: PST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 3-5 hours a week or more depends if im not in school Have you read the rules?: Yes Do you have a working microphone?: Yes Do you acknowledge that you must meet the weekly minimum ticket quota of 20 tickets? (Unless you have posted a valid LOA): yes Are you familiarized with SAM and/or Nutscript commands?: yes Do you acknowledge that lying on this application will result in immediate denial and blacklisting from staff?: yes ------------------------------------------------- Long Answer Questions proceeded with an asterix require a response of 5 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: * My overall motivation for applying is my recurring desire to diverge after all that happens to me, either getting picked or banned; I always somehow come back. As I come back every time, I see how much staff truly changes, and I see how sometimes it’s good with tickets getting accepted in minutes while sometimes 10+ staff are on and they take 0 tickets and just rp on their main chars. I personally want to join the staff team due to my dedication to only my staff character, as I have no real RP characters, and I have been picked from most factions on the server. I want to help and support the server in which I had so much fun for the past 4 enjoyable years, even though a lot has happened. I want to fix my reputation and show myself as a dedicated member of the community once again and not as a minge and to help in any way I can, and that is by joining the staff team to help in any capacity. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * I should be considered over other candidates for 2 major reasons. My first reason is my overall experience/knowledge of good mafia RP. I have been playing for a long time, and I know the community to a tee and what the player base is genuinely like, unlike other newer players. The 2nd reason I should be a candidate is my previous staff experiences diverge. I have been staffed over 3+ times, and every time I get better and better, I have experience in taking all sorts of tickets and have experience in every situation as either the staff member or the roleplayer. I can give knowledgeable information to all. Also, I am very nice and helpful to all, no matter what they know about me or if they like or dislike me. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Diverge Networks Mafia rp 3x times Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes a lot of times. Now, I wouldn’t call myself perfect. No one is in GmodMafia RP, but I have a terrible / ruined track record. When I barely joined, I didn’t break the rules at all, barely getting 1 warning from 2021 to 2022, but after that, everything went downhill. I started minging and getting bans left and right, including a few permanent bans, but from Pendred allowing me to come back every time ( very thankful ), I try my hardest to stop and not get bans, but it still occurs like most players. But when I become staff, this would be the only thing I would do and, therefore, won’t get banned anymore. I know, my bans and warns are really bad but pls give another change gangy!! Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: * Yes, I have one of this community's most iconic / ruined reputations. Everyone knows me and knows who I am and what I have done (concerning bans and minging ). I would say when I play normally, and that 99% of the time, I truly believe I help with rping and try my best to act serious, but it's a game, and no one is truly an irl gangster, yk. But most players are divided in half regarding who I truly am. There are the players who like who I am due to my funny personality, and the other half who do not like me due to that same personality and take things a little too seriously. But most enjoy my presence. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: My favorite moment on Diverge would be in early 2021 as a new player and roleplaying as an associate in prime diverge and having fun being in vc with og lucchese with 20+ players and being the best security guard in all of nyc by protecting imperial and doing drugs and such. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: ------------------------------------------------- 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?: Well, it depends. If it is prime time and other staff members are online during that moment, I would ask them if they can pull me to a sit so I can explain what happened and for them to make a staff sit. But if no one is online, such as during downtime or late at night, I would make the sit and not be biased and ask for second opinions from other staff members so as not to be prejudiced. 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?: Well, first, I wouldn't want to talk directly to the person but rather gather evidence of everything they are doing and put all this info on a Google doc, making it easy for UA to see and use. I wouldn't want to directly confront the person because if we are the same or equal rank, they wouldn't care what I would be saying, but if UA talks to them, then they will care. 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?: Well, It doesn't matter who it is; it could be my don, it could be my brother in the game, or it could be I know very well in the game; the person does not matter, and it won't affect my judgment in game or have any bias towards not doing my complete staff duties against them. Also, regarding the "you know that this person rarely does this when you play with him" comment, the player could be brand new, but if they are breaking the rules, I have to do everything in my power to enforce the rules to the best of my ability, but if they are brand new like first time playing I would be more willing to give warnings/notes than ban unless it was a horrible rule break such as mass rdm or something in that line.

-1 not enough writing

Hello, Banning Staff member here, at this time you have 4 hours left in your Ban, I do believe it would be best you wait the time out, you did tried to stab a large group of people, including cops actively arresting someone for no reason, I sent you a YouTube Video showing proper Escalation - Link, and I hope you watched it.

-1 it’s all jokes til they get caught. also fuck u and ur mass mugging

you were a menace but this is what an appeal should be effort wise+1

I have already sat down with him earlier this morning, and explained and showed him, how to obtain, and what evidence is "IC", and also gave him a pretty long lecture, he has a much better understanding and is, well aware of his mistakes and does not intend to make then again.

Hi, banning admin here. You are much more apologetic than your counter part so I won't give you the full spiel. Yes, the investigation uncovered that the information used to push for the PK was metagamed and the other reasons were just tacked on as the main reason was shaky. As a member of HC, in any faction, the powers granted to you to get orders or to put orders are very strong and must be used responsibly. As you are new to this and you seem genuine in your apology, on the grounds that pimpin sits down and talks to you about the level of evidence that must be upheld for clean orders, I am okay for vouching for a reduction to 5 days.

Hi, banning admin here. I was the one investigating the original PK. While doing so, I reached to pimpin as he was the one who issued the orders. When I did, it was made clear that the reasons given were on shaky ground. During said investigation it turned out there was no IC evidence and even clips that were stated to be held were not existent either. Based on testimony from those closest to the situation and people present during the VC that lead to the metagamed info were able to confirm that it was in fact metagamed. Those involved and interviewed believed it was done maliciously because of an ongoing OOC situation your friend group had going on. For these reasons, you were punished for metagaming information to push for the orders to be given.

Ultimately, whatever transpired between Yourself, Tak, Graves, and Ties from April 3rd to the 6th, are the leading factor in the Ban, the reasons for his PK can be argued that some information could've and was Meta-Gamed threw Private and or Public VCs, in which was the ultimate cause for his death. Everyone involved needs to take time more to gather IC evidence, such as Clips, Pictures, etc. I cannot speak on if your appeal should be accepted of not, as I am your Acting Don, Rules were broken, and that I can confirm.
