Your Character or Steam Name: SinisterShiba Your SteamID: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199754938595/ Your Discord ID#: sinister_shiba Reason for ban: Poaching Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): I was banned for switching over to a lesser RP known as Golden Coast Studios Crime RP, I was mad I was unable to make a Underground Association character and was locked out of playing with my friends. I wanted to find a new server to which I wasn't locked out of having fun with a couple buddies of mine that I met previous to getting on this server, as I found out about GCS I realized it could be a new opportunity for me to start fresh (It was not all that nor worth getting banned). I never intended to pull people from here, just kind of worked out that way because I brought my friends over and they brought some of their dude-bros over so it. I wish I could just like erase doing what I did but, I can't really change the past only the future. So, I'd hope to gain a second chance if you skygods pity me enough. Why should you be unbanned? I simply wish to be unbanned because I want to be able to play with my friends again even if I have to start all over from scratch and am faction locked out of UA. I've learned alot from my time over in GCS and I want to be a pillar of the community over here instead of in retard-ville, Please Pity me.

Yea but if i get pk'ed from your faction and become resentful I can go around on discord / an alt char telling all your associates the number to fuck with you. I guess there is a possible way to "re-roll" the number to change it up but it just means more of a backend recode. If it's whitelist then there's no point in the number besides being a little gimmick, you'd be denying access to the possible RP of an associate who is using or doing something they shouldn't be in a criminal org and if the whitelist truly controls who can buy what then entering a silly number is pointless and just becomes redundant, I guess the solution is simply requiring it to be entered once per session so it does not become cumbersome, but I easily see a guy going LOA, getting back on, not remembering the number and hopping into discord #made-men-ic "@here hey what's the fucking number for the fucking racket i forgot" The system has changed once significantly. at least the back end (and some interaction elements on the front end) so it's already far superior to what we launched with, and as it's a system that you would interact with more than a dozen times daily it is purely function over form. It needs to work, and it does. In the same vein, since it's a system every user interacts with constantly the idea that you can add 'RP' interactions to it that won't become redundant is nearly impossible. Even if you think it's epic to enter a number every time to get a shipment there's someone that will think it's cringe. The intended use case will be run out and optimized by users. I'm not saying it can't be done (a recode) but it takes time and all the niche questions and holes that I'm asking and poking need to be answered with full diction before I can even consider making a mock write up for it. So keep it rolling.

The first point, I think, adds even more to the RP. Instead of dealing with "This new recruit can see the whole racket and can buy whatever shipment they want whenever they want" we are dealing with "Okay this person is leaking info he shouldn't be, let's crack down." Now i understand the point about that maybe being abused for PKs, but I think HC would still need proof of who did what at the end of the day for the PK to be valid, which if you think about it, no more or less proof is needed with the current system we have. For the second point, logically the number should be set up by HC, and obviously there would need to still be whitelist access to use the number. Since phone numbers have to be at least 5 digits, the racket numbers could be 4 digits for ease of access. I get your point about this type of system getting dull over time, but I still think it's a good step to the right direction. Now for the third point, what is "The right direction" that i just mentioned? Well I think the vendor recode is long overdue already. We've had basically the same system for 5 years now, besides some UI changes, and as far as interactivity goes it's gotten pretty stale. I think the community as a whole should collectively think up ideas to replace the current system we have, at every aspect. This suggestion with the payphones came to me because I was trying to think of a better shipment system. Now I know that making a whole new vendor system is a tall order, but small implementations can take us there.

Me and my buddy old screenshots on the server

I have also thoroughly read all the rules a few times over.

Your Character or Steam Name: Frankie Montana Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561198803913474 Your Discord ID#: imonpluto Reason for ban: MRDM Length of ban: PERM Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Server is the best RP serv on gmod hands down Why should you be unbanned? I have waited a full year in timeout like a good boy, I'm looking to turn a new leaf with all the friends and staff on the server. I got right with God in the mean time. 2026 is tonight and i think its a good time start my new years resolution, especially sorry to my friend Canadian bacon, my good fellow. I'd love to hear back soon. Thank you Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

Hello! There seems to some confusion around this whole situation. First off, you were breaking NLR and that should have been handled by staff. Second, they did try to have you PK'd prior for the mugging. Both of these would been invalid reasons. You were then PK'd for not valuing your life. While this is a reason to be PK'd, it doesn't exactly apply in this situation. With that being said, your character will be restored. I hope you take this second chance at life to become a more valuable contributor to RP! Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Cool thought, maybe better for drugs instead of typing it to every individual shipment, or a group of shipments (1 number to access multiple guns for instance) but 1) What stops meta/powergame/racket abuse of someone who isn't HC sharing the number with others? I guess the default argument is "HC would know they did not give that person the number" but someone the HC gave the number to could give it to that other person, or the HC faction could lie to try and find a reason to pk someone. 2) Would the number have to be entered every single time? I'm sure someone would eventually whine about having to do that each time, the novelty of the 'rp' would wear off after the first hundred uses. There's a certain threshold of 'interactivness' that someone can tolerate before being annoyed, functionality over form when its a menu you will interact with thousands of times. 3) Does this suggestion aim to completely remove the existing racket NPCs and replace them with payphones and number in totality? This would likely be a fairly hefty vendor recode on the backend.

maybe after you jumped off bridge

yeah bro go ahead and log off for us

Would also happen if escalation rules got loosened, weak factions naturally die out when not protected

i fucking hate that map

Since a new year is about to begin (2026) it has been two years since the server changed from 1988 to 1989. Now I don't know exactly when this server was released on gmod but I thought it would be very interesting to celebrate I would like to propose, a new mafia era. Here's many ideas i come up with: NEW MAP: First of all, since are the 90's, to be Historically accurate the map still kinda the same but it gets bigger, new buildings, new constructions etc. so to give a little more space in the map for exploring and of course for roleplaying; https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2925489145 NEW MODELS: New face models, so I might suggest something like Assassin's Creed, Half-Life 2, and Dead Rising. At least something new, instead of using the same models when you have to create a character. NEW OUTFITS/SHIRTS/PANTS ETC. I think the developers will have to look for this one, the only thing I can suggest is to create a command to raise the sleeves of a shirt or an outfit. NEW FACTIONS: Of course i couldn't missed the factions. These are all the factions I searched. Families: Patriatca Family; Black Mafia Family; Camorra; Russian Mafia; Capaci; Via D'amelio; Falcone. Streets Gang: Crips&Bloods; Asian Boyz; Rascal Gang; The Ghost Shadows; Public Enemy No.1; United Blood Nation. Triads: Wo Shing Wo; San Yee On; Wo Hop To. That's all I had to suggest. For more information, DM me on Discord: davemaio6454

+1 2 years ago i was part of a irish faction, the ruain collective. if this faction got accepted, then its time to back in business! (I miss them)

+1 would fuck with this hard, adds RP and is just cool as fuck

-1

+1 great idea for RP and would make more sense to why you would need to pick up a shipment compared to “oh talk to this guy and he will tell you where the shipment is in 10 minutes”

Thank you for applying to the Diverge Networks staff team! It is my pleasure to inform you that your application has been accepted. Submit a ticket on our Discord for training and to get setup.

i actually like this a lot. +1.

Like the title says, the shipment NPC system is as uninteractive as it gets, my idea was that HC of each faction would have specific phone numbers to plugs, they'd give those phone numbers out to whoever they want(reducing the amount of racket abuse). You'd type out the phone number on one of the payphones and you'd be able to order whatever shipments through that.

Unplayable. Im going to jerk off.
