  1. Past hour
  2. Hello, I was one of the muggers. My friend has already explained everything that needed to be said in detail. The mugging took place in a yellow zone, and neither the police nor anyone else actually witnessed us mugging you. The officer only started chasing us after hearing the gunshots, caught one of us, and released him after charging him with only misdemeanors. As Akira already explained, the officer had no idea what had actually happened and did not witness the mugging or the PK. If he had, there's virtually no chance that a District Attorney and a Lieutenant would have let someone involved in an incident like this go without felony charges. On top of that, my friend gave you multiple warnings and even counted down from 3 before taking any action. Instead of following our commands and walking back into the alley, you chose to stand there and stare at us. If you had simply complied with the orders we gave you, you wouldn't have been PK'd. I think thats a valid PK
  3. +1 Since I first joined this server and the Diverge community, Rebel has been an outstanding mentor to me. He has given me countless opportunities to learn nearly every aspect of legal and police RP. Beyond that, he helped me truly understand metagaming rules and server rules in general. Whether serving as a Judge within the courts, a Detective, or in any other role, Rebel has consistently demonstrated that he genuinely cares about his friends, but more importantly, he prioritizes what is right and best for the community as a whole. He approaches every situation with fairness, zero bias, and no personal grudges. His years of deep experience on Diverge make him an invaluable asset to the staff team. Out of everyone I’ve recommended for staff, Rebel stands out far above the rest. I strongly hope he receives this position and I know he will excel in it and continue doing great things for the community if simply given the chance.
  4. +1 genuinely helpfully, and knowledgeable player in the community.
  5. Hello, the guy who PK'd you here. You may only kill the victim if they DO NOT comply with your demands. Victims that comply are to be left unharmed. Likewise you may only make realistic demands, this means you can’t demand something unrealistic that the victim cannot deliver in order to kill them. Give them a realistic amount of time to comply. Don't order them to do something then shoot them < 5 seconds later, they barely have time to comply." First of all, I'd like to point out that your first argument is completely baseless. I pulled my gun on you, gave you clear commands, and the entire situation lasted around 9–10 seconds. You can verify that yourself by counting from the 2-second mark of the clip. If you're walking around in a yellow zone while watching or listening to something in the background instead of paying attention to the game, and you fail to notice someone pointing a gun at you and attempting to initiate FearRP, that's not my fault. That's your responsibility. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "You may not mug in a public place, you can, however, pull a weapon on them and bring them to a secluded area to rob them (This can only be done when there is no one else around. EXAMPLE: The victim is alone at night in the middle of an empty street. You initiate a mugging with your firearm and take them to an alleyway so no one stumbles upon the crime. You may not perform the mugging in the street, which is a public area.)" As for your second argument, this mugging did not take place in an invalid area. As you can see in the screenshot I uploaded, the incident happened in a yellow zone, where players are allowed to initiate FearRP against each other. Instead of complying with the commands of someone pointing a gun at your head in an alley, you chose to stand there and do nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As shown in the screenshot, you had a Tec-9 in your hand at the moment you died. That means that during the moment you described as being "in shock," you were fully capable of pulling your weapon and attempting to kill one of us. Despite me repeatedly telling you to come back and giving you a reasonable amount of time to comply, as permitted by the server rules, you ignored my commands. Because of that, I had every right to proceed with the PK. As stated in Rule 3 of the FearRP rules, if you refuse to follow my commands or actively resist, I have the right to shoot you. 3.If you're holding someone under Fear RP and issue them orders/warnings not to do something and they disobey you may kill them. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Regarding the witness, while the PK was taking place, I contacted Lieutenant Danny Silvershine (Administrator Psykho) and asked him to join the support channel. When he arrived, I didn't explain the situation. I simply asked him to answer one question, and told him I'd explain afterward why I was asking it. My question was, "What exactly did you see?" He told me that he never realized it was a mugging and therefore did not witness a mugging at all. After that, I explained that we had actually mugged and PK'd you, and asked him that if an appeal was made, he should simply describe what he personally witnessed. That's why we're here now. I pointed a gun at you and gave you clear FearRP commands, which you ignored. You claim the incident happened in an inappropriate public location, even though it took place in a yellow zone where FearRP is allowed. You also claim that a police officer witnessed the mugging, yet that same officer didn't even realize a mugging or PK had taken place. I explained every one of these points to Bullets, the staff member handling the PK ticket. After listening to my explanation, obtaining a second opinion from the appropriate staff members, and reviewing all the evidence and clips, he approved the PK. I'm sorry, but none of the arguments you've presented are accurate or valid. This PK was carried out fully in accordance with the server rules. Good luck on your appeal tho!
  6. In-Game Name(s): Sergeant Joe Marshall, Anthony Yablonski, Volodymir Kronov [Main], Judge Micky Mandate, Riccardo DeCavalcante Steam Name: RevampedRebel Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/RevampedRebel/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:81293869 Discord Username: RevampedRebel Age: 27 When did you first join the server: 2022 I think. Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 3mo 6d 10m Time Zone: EST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: A good several hours through the week, with more in the weekend. 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?: It has been a long time but I'm generally familiar with Nutscript admin commands, not so much with SAM. 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 3 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: So I'm usually a government main or when I'm on a civ its 90% LegalRP. I have seen it happen many times where there just isn't enough staff around especially in the later mid-week EST hours to make government chars fun to continue at times where the minge hour gets a bit too out of hand, people need autoplead but there's no staff on to validate it, people breaking nlr, etc. These days, I'm not locked into a faction where I can have enough skin in the game to be biased. In my opinion, we do truly need more staff who have little to no real conflict or reason to even be suspected of abuse. In my case, I'm just the legal guy who plays his cop a lot. I don't have a purpose for slimy nonsense I'd cut it down the middle just like I was acting on my Judge char. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: While my record isn't spotless, I feel I've proven that over a long time in the game that I'm capable of playing by the rules. I'm not going to say that my record is spotless and I'm not going to discount the severity of the only ban I have on record. The thing that should put me apart is the fact that I'm capable of ruling against people I like if they legitimately did do wrong. I've arrested friends on my cop. I've convicted friends or people aligned with my alt chars on my Judge. I'm capable of recognizing when there is an appearance of conflict and recusing myself accordingly. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): I was a Super Admin on IceMod TTT for some time, went on to own a Clockwork: HL2RP server in their network. I was a super admin on ShockCoreGaming's ClockWork: HL2RP City-RP server and an admin on their Combine Military RP server. I've staffed on some smaller nutscript projects as well. Most of these servers were 100% text based serious rp without voice chat enabled. SCG used to top 80 players in its prime before it died some years back and I had admined there for years. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: I was banned for Char Abuse and Metagame one time about a year back. I regret the incident and don't deny wrongdoing. I've since learned from my actions and ultimately went through a lot with Diverge from that point onward. I've matured a fair bit in that time, from getting my degree to settling down and getting married. I've had a long time to reflect on myself as a person, and the way I present myself when I play the game. Obviously the action was wrong, I accept that and feel that I have moved on and grown from the experience more than a year later. Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: That's a mixed bag. I used to be a major criminal main. I used to run SOS and was a crim lawyer. During that time my reputation was positive until the end of that time. I went on to do undercover work which is seriously unpopular even oocly leading to my blacklist in most factions. I then went on to be a detective who was very effective at his job, leading to many important people getting arrested. I also did not let little things go either, believing that small offenses often lead to big arrests. This leaves me seriously unpopular with the crims. However, I feel that I am well liked among the government mains. I'm presently a patrol Sergeant on my cop and I also play a Judge. I spend way more time in that sphere than others outside of when I'm doing court-based material which is most frequent. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: It's not so much a moment exactly but it was my time in SOS. It was a long road which ultimately came to an abrupt and sour end but the time was well spent. When I had joined, SOS was on an activity warning and getting ready to lose the whitelist. I joined on my former Cartel Monteria character as a Captain. I helped claw the faction back from the brink, with some help inside and outside the club. When Gecko ultimately lost interest in running the show, he gave it to Punisher where I went on to serve as his VP. We had a rough go at first since Punisher clashed with many of the existing members of the Club, and many people outside the club as well. I learned during that experience early on about how fatal your bank account can be on Diverge and narrowly escaped getting a felony charge which would have ended my run as the club lawyer. I remember the sweet wins I had in court on that character. I stumbled my way through Court RP, getting lucky mostly but making a ton of money doing it. During the legal trouble, it put a freeze on Punisher and I and later Gunny moved up to surpass me as President. Together, him and I did legitimately crazy plays that got SOS out of being a district of Takahashi into being its own faction. I recall sitting there on the first racket event with the credit cards and seeing an opportunity to buy our way out. We gave all of our cards to Takahashi but one, where SOS then bumped down to H but Taka paid us $1,000,000 and released us from district in exchange for giving them all of the SOS and 14K credit cards which they gave to Kosher free of charge for some godforsaken unknown reason. While we lost the racket event, it was the sweetest victory since we achieved a major goal. Watching the club grow under us, it made me proud. I fondly remember on New Year's day 2025 I made a long winded announcement where I shared my appreciation and celebrated SOS' comeback from the brink where Pendred replied to it that it was indeed a great comeback. One of the craziest moments I ever did have on Diverge was going toe-to-toe with District Attorney Jeffrey Blake in the case People v (Whatever Candles' UB of laventine was called). I had ultimately fought a hard fight and got an unlikely win after arguing a case that had a shaky defense. As we were celebrating, I recall getting surrounded by detectives and shuffled into the Judges chambers where I was then arrested on weapons stockpiling charges. I could go on for some time but sometimes the losses I took along the way are just as astonishing as the wins since the circumstances are both funny and memorable. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Psykoh, AUIAnimator, Greenghost ------------------------------------------------- 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?: If possible, I'd try to get another staff member to handle it considering I'm likely mid-RP. If none are available and my flagging up wouldn't be a major nuisance to others around me, I'd handle the ticket ASAP on my staff char. 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?: I'd preserve all evidence I have of the abuse and bring it to the attention of UA. It wouldn't need to be a case of "fairly often" but moreso "happens at all". Staff abuse is never tolerable even if the offense is viewed as minor. 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 first try to get another staff member on the ticket as there could be an appearance of bias. While I may be mindful of the fact that this person may rarely commit that offense, I'd always be inclined against giving out punishment without evidence anyways. Even if someone has 10 PO's for an offense they're being reported for, the default opinion should be that there won't be punishment where there isn't proof. After coming to a conclusion on the case, if there isn't another staff member able to look at it in game, I'd reach out to one by discord, show the evidence I have, and ask if the verdict is reasonable if I can do so in a reasonable amount of time.
  7. This is probably going to be denied but I just have to say that waiting that amount of time for a shipment can be abit frustrating whilst grinding. There should still be a wait time but not 10 minutes, instead it should be 5 minutes or less depending on what staff may think. but yes in short, reduce the shipment delivery time.
  8. Today
  9. Name of Character: Rocco Sacrimoni Character ID: 196230 (unsure but probably it) SteamID: 76561199864149296 Your Discord ID#: 298613226080305152 Date of PK: July 2nd 2026 Reason for PK: Supposed fearRP Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: "You may only kill the victim if they DO NOT comply with your demands. Victims that comply are to be left unharmed. Likewise you may only make realistic demands, this means you can’t demand something unrealistic that the victim cannot deliver in order to kill them. Give them a realistic amount of time to comply. Don't order them to do something then shoot them < 5 seconds later, they barely have time to comply." You can see in my clip that I was running along past the laundromat, I was first engaged by the muggers at about the 6 second mark, when I heard the muggers finish their first command during the 6 second mark, I stopped, trying to process the situation. They ordered me to come back, so at around the 9-10 second mark, you can see that I started walking towards them, complying. They then, for the exactly 4/4.5 second delay in my processing of their commands in this stressful situation, they shot me- while I was starting to comply. The server rules explicitly explain that "Don't order them to do something then shoot them < 5 seconds later, they barely have time to comply." The mugging that resulted in the death of my character, where I started to comply and was given barely even 5 seconds to process the situation does not align with this rule's understanding of how muggings should work. I was given too little time to comply, and at the moment of my death at the 10 second mark (~4 seconds from the end of the first verbal command), I was complying. "You may not mug in a public place, you can, however, pull a weapon on them and bring them to a secluded area to rob them (This can only be done when there is no one else around. EXAMPLE: The victim is alone at night in the middle of an empty street. You initiate a mugging with your firearm and take them to an alleyway so no one stumbles upon the crime. You may not perform the mugging in the street, which is a public area.)" The mugging was not performed in a secluded enough area. You can see in my clip that I was walking along the sidewalk adjacent to rockefeller, a fairly public place- and while if rockefeller is unoccupied it would be fair to mug in an empty street, there was literally a police car just down from the mugging watching it taking place, which you can see in my clip. My mugging was not done in private, was done in a location where someone "stumbles upon the crime" something that is explicitly disallowed as not a valid mugging location in the rules. You can see the police car in the 9ish second mark approaching from behind the pillar on the side of the road, and, after I was sent to the hospital, at the 15 second mark- you can hear "Lieutenant Danny Silvershine" calling out shots fired on the radio. You can also see people just down the street in view, in the same direction of the police car- who would be able to see the crime. In NO WAY was this a secluded incident, where the mugging was done in a "public place", and the only exception for mugging in such a location, where "no one else around" is observed to be true- is false. Ultimately, the mugging was not done in an appropriate location, and I was not given enough time to comply (which I was doing anyways when they shot me if you watch my clip closely). I was given less than 5 seconds to comply, which server rules specifies is not enough time, and the mugging was done too publicly for a PK to be issued. Server rules gives the victim of a mugging this buffer time to respond to avoid a needless death of a valued character, I was not given this time, nor was I afforded the consideration of an appropriate location for mugging RP, seeing as the location was fairly public, and nowhere near "secluded". If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/n1TnA2zTlFfgk2X6n?invite=cr-MSw0dmUsNDUxMjY4Mjc3
  10. give him a second chance
  11. Prayers bro your a good cop to play with; Dumbass for not waiting but they tend to be pretty forgiving over dumb african american moves like that one. Prayers
  12. Your Character or Steam Name: Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561199086673621 Your Discord ID#: bmanzick1 Reason for ban: Alting Length of ban: Perma Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? I will admit, trying to alt was a little impulsive and retarded. I shouldn't have done that considering how much I like playing on the server. I have spent a lot of time on my characters and I think I'm liked by many of the people I play with. If it's at all possible, I just want to wait out the ban for my VDM (that I don't even remember but that's a lost cause honestly idk why I didn't just try appealing that). I'd like to continue playing the server and not make the same mistakes I just made. I've made a lot of friends and don't really want to lose them over this Additional Information (images, videos, etc):
  13. Yesterday
  14. I appreciate your support, you're the goat too! Yeah, honestly the playtime is a little rough. I would wait until I have more recent playtime, but I wanted to get an application in early since I know how long it could take for a response to come. Plus, with tickets taking so long for most staff members to respond to recently, I feel like it's a really good time to throw my hat in the ring and try to contribute a bit more to the cause. Besides that, I used to have a lot more playtime before I stopped playing most video games for a couple years for work, and when I came back the playtime had been reset. But if you check my forums profile, you can see my badges showing how long I've been in the community (at least on the forums), so I promise I'm not trying to be dishonest about anything!
  15. for the record, the opposing counsel was Mr. Waffels, Mr. Waffels is INDEED a "retard".
  16. +1 I'm turning this to a +1 because he passed my ragebait and making IC matters OOC matters test. Best of luck on your application. PS: If I see Andy react to another one of my messages I'm going to ragebait him into the Istanbul State Pen (not a threat, we are "friends", thank you.)
  17. Thank you for applying to the Diverge Networks staff team. Unfortunately, your application has been denied. You may apply again in 30 days. You may apply sooner if you receive permission from a Super Administrator or higher.
  18. +1 I’ve interacted with Logic a lot and can confidently say he’s still a young soul. That said, when it comes down to brass tacks, he consistently approaches situations impartially, shares knowledge, and enforces the rules fairly. Having played nearly every role on the server, he has both the experience and the availability to get the job done effectively.
  19. Retard that used his ESU char to help the Japs on his main when I had them by their necks btw.
  20. +1 A strong staff candidate needs to handle responsibility impartially, stay active and available, and actually understand the server. Ender has been here since 2025 with a clean record and a solid grasp of the rules. We especially need coverage during off-peak / awkward hours. An international player like Ender helps fill gaps that most of us can’t, which benefits the whole community. Age isn’t a real concern. We already have younger staff, and I was admining at 15-16 on one of the few original servers that inspired Diverge. Ender isn’t immature he’s a DOJ main who already makes jail decisions daily, respects due process, and shows creativity. He’s also played every character type on the server. We’ve accepted worse candidates. Giving anything less than neutral or +1 (unless you have serious objections) does the community a disservice. He deserves a fair shot.
  21. my pfp is from a niche synthv vocaloid song titled Saints of Sacrilege by rai1367 and it's literally just a woman that is a cow its not even remotely what you're thinking
  22. Honest opinion: a little more recent playtime would be nice, other then that you seem very nice
  23. Yo im not one to hate, and idk if we have even talked before but I am simply -1 because of the profile picture. Something is up and I can't put my finger on it.
  24. In-Game Name(s): Benedicto Ferratio | Changin Hoerstenreich Steam Name: Changin Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/PiggehGamezing/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:120968128 Discord Username: yeardsly Age: 23 When did you first join the server: I've existed since launch. Was part of the initial launch staff team. Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): Your play time is: 6d 2h 37m (SKEWED due to playtime reset a long time ago) Time Zone: EST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: On AVERAGE, 3-4hrs a day. Up to 6 on the weekends, roughly 2-3 on weekdays. Have you read the rules?: Yes. Recently realized there were some updates to the rules which I had not noticed, so I did a full read into the rules fairly recently. 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 3 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: I would like to help the community be the best that it can be, and I believe that I can contribute a lot to that goal. I have noticed how long some of my in-game tickets take, and I feel that it is appropriate that I contribute to making that time as short as possible. I have been around for a while and have a lot of experience with being staff on a multitude of servers on Garry's Mod, and it is just something that I enjoy doing. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I have much more experience than most other people would (or should) realistically have. I believe that I have a greater-than-average understanding of how to effectively communicate with other people in a calm manner. From my experience, problem-solving is not a skill that many people have refined, and I think that I could be very useful to the community in that sense. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): There are a lot of servers I was staff on, I'm going to be honest. But I will list the most notable ones here: Typhon, from Moderator->Super Administrator (took 2 months), was a Super Administrator for the last 6 months until the server shut down. | Diverge, was a Senior Administrator on launch and was removed by Pendred (still not 100% sure why but whatever man no hard feelings) | Pyro Networks, Super Administrator for the server's lifetime (a year and a half, 2018-2020) Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: I hope not. Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: I would say that I am more well-known in my main character's faction and amongst some staff members than anywhere else. The community probably doesn't know me very well, but there are a few prominent figures who I've had a lot of interactions with. I would hope that my reputation is a positive one from all fronts, and I like to believe that people view me as a mature, but humorous person. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: Oh fuck. Here we go; So, a couple years ago, I played Diverge for a solid month almost every day. I would sing at the Trat & the owners' respective gatherings/events. Now, there was this one performance I had where I had informed one of the upper management that I was been talking with a girl from "out of town." I was singing a song, and during the song I had received a "missed call" (snapchat notification) on my (OBVIOUSLY IN-GAME) phone. After the song, I felt obligated to inform the managers that I had received totally SFW content after returning the call-hence my new nickname, "Nudes". Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: I hope they all recommend me after reading this application. ------------------------------------------------- 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?: So, this situation can go multiple different ways. First off, if I am in an RP situation which I can't get out of, I will attempt to contact other staff members to take care of it. If this situation includes myself, I would be biased in the scenario, so I will also call another staff member and provide details/evidence if I have any. Finally, if I am not busy and not involved in the situation, I will go on-duty and assist in taking tickets/resolving the situation. 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?: If this fellow staff member is one that I fear retaliation from, I would take my evidence (which I WILL collect prior to saying anything) to a higher staff member. If this fellow staff member is one that I know will not react uncontrollably, I will simply speak to them myself. There is no reason to cause unnecessary drama when this situation could be handled at the lowest level possible. 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 inform my fellow staff members that I know the guy and that I don't realistically see him doing anything, but I would let someone else take the ticket instead and allow them to make their own decision regarding the situation. This constitutes a heavy bias from me, so in any situation, I feel as though it is extremely inappropriate for me to get directly involved in the decision-making process. However, if I am aware that this person has no prior offences, and I know that it's not a regular occurrence, I feel as though it is fair for me to share that input with the staff member making the decision. Prior offences and general attitude whilst on the server are a huge indicator for player intention and should play a role in any penal decision made against them. ---------------------------------------------------------
