One might say, BOOM, ROASTED!!

irrelevant

Hello, I was the staff member that banned you. Last night you were reported for RDM and when I was provided a clip you were shown shooting a player for seemingly no real reason. He was driving up the stairway between the jewish building and the Bruno-Scarfo building and you just shot him down. Now I couldn't get your side of the story because you had logged off but from how it looked you were kinda RDM baiting all last night and acting sorta mingey so I don't think the story and clip that was provided at the sit is far from the truth. If I made an error I apologies but as of now it looks valid.

New gen freak of nature try hard gets trolled by scary auraful @String If you take GIFS in your DM's as a sign of "crashout" then you might be serverly autistic and should be tested dude... String and I were in VC laughing our asses off when he was sending you them because WE KNEW you would sperg out like this LOCK IN GANG!!!!! SHIT AIN'T THAT DEEP!!!!

all of this is government propaganda and i will not stand for propaganda against string still a +1

Don't really see what this reply is trying to prove

All of this is government propaganda and I will not stand for propaganda against String, still a +1!

Reminder that String made this staff app literally less than 12 hours after crashing out at AceAdmiral, Boosted, and me in general.

-1 I rarely speak out this strongly against giving someone another chance, but in this case, I feel it's necessary. Attached I've sent the recent DMs he sent me during the time to which I banned him. Besides that I'd like to say this. While he wasn't the worst staff member we've had, the team is currently running smoothly without him. We shouldn't lower our standards just to add more bodies. This is the Diverge of today, not a few years ago. He was recently banned and continues to disagree with the reasoning behind it. In his forum post, he simply dismissed it as "retarded." He lashes out angrily at anyone who personally disagrees with him. This level of reactivity is unprofessional for staff. Even in his likely response to post, he's likely to push back without any apology or politeness to me whom has been nothing but professional towards him throughout his ban that I administrated in good faith. That should say enough alone. As a staff member who's been here for nearly a year, I have zero notes on my account. He has over 30! A consistent pattern of bans and notes shows a lack of accountability or issues with emotional regulation which are essential for any staff member to have and maintain during their duties.

The escalation rules should be viewed as a shell and starting point, not a rigid checklist. UA looks at the full situation, all factions involved, and all relevant factors before making a determination, including faction size, recent hires, main character status, alt characters, and whether anyone is trying to gain an unfair advantage. The purpose of a lockdown / hire block is to prevent war jumping, temporary recruiting, and alt abuse. It also makes escalation uncomfortable for everyone involved, which should push factions toward a quicker resolution instead of letting the conflict drag out. If someone was actively maining a faction but never formally set it as their main, that is ultimately on the player and their faction leadership. If they were involved enough to be impacted by the escalation, they should have seen it coming and made sure their main was properly set. Leadership also has a responsibility to warn members before things reach that point. A lock can be adjusted or removed if UA believes the specific situation calls for it, but it should not be assumed. Unless UA clearly states otherwise, factions should treat the lockdown and main character requirements as active. In your case, you were scared because you thought Popov was going to PK you, so you left the faction to do hits for Supreme in another faction. Once you realized there was no orders you left the other faction and now are stuck as a civ. watching from the outside. If you want numbers.....at the start of the escalation Supreme had 140 alts(More than any other crim. faction) to Popov 30 alts, for mains there were 25 for Supreme and 13 for Popov...... this was taken into account during the main lock decision.

First of all thank you for respond and sharing what you know. However I wasnt asking this question specifically about the Popov x Supreme situation. I asked it because despite spending hours and days researching it i couldnt even find any clear rule or official information on the topic. Like you also mentioned nobody really knows the official “ruleset” behind how faction lock is used/works in conflict so I thought it would be better if someone from the UA or Canadian side could give a proper clarification for everyone. Other than that i definitely agree with your points regarding the system being fair ETC. But if we take the Popov x Supreme conflict as an example the lockdown was implemented suddenly and very early without prior notice which meant that some people who were genuinely mains in the family were left outside the WL and cant get back in. If there had been any rule or announcement about this beforehand everyone would have been able to prepare accordingly. (Speaking for Supreme, we dont actually need the lockdown to be lifted at all. If they really want to try their chance with a maximum of 5 people they can try their luck lol, but I dont think that would be fair or fun for anyone involved)

Faction lock to my knowledge started being used in the UA vs Commission war last year, but maybe it was a thing prior, I wouldn't know. Basically it keeps things fair in conflict. In Supreme v Popov's case, I think it's fair to say if there was no faction lock both of their alliances (and wider friends) would be mass creating characters in their faction, and then the conflict becomes 'who has more friends who can effectively mugging char them to victory' I don't know the official 'ruleset' behind its use in conflict, but for us, we had a 24/48 hour hiring and ordering period when escalation ended before the war began, I can't remember if that was intentional or not. But yeah, the lock makes it fair - if you are a main character who truly supports and works for your faction, it's on you to show up and fight, not a bunch of alt's. I think the more interesting thing for you to look at are the upcoming escalation levels you guys can reach. It get's pretty hardcore on your lower guys economy.

i did both can i play now i called myself samuel hartley in the quiz

Supreme Team is sweating hella bullets rn

ALSO, I wanted to mention the slot machines. I dont know who came up with the idea to remove them but THANK you.

Go all in on green every time? Yeah bro we know

Nvm I read that wrong I’m retarded

That’s level 5 escalation I’m fairly certain either that or it’s level 6

I have read all of the rules multiple times and paid close attention but I could not find any rule or level information explaining whether the two factions involved in an official conflict enter a lockdown period (hire block and main character requirement) I also asked several long time players who have experienced previous conflicts or wars in the city. Some of them told me that this lockdown is temporarily lifted before the war starts in order to give both factions a fair chance. However I am not sure if this information is accurate. Could someone explain how this system works in general? Why is the lockdown applied? Under what conditions is it removed? Is it true that the lockdown is temporarily lifted before an official war begins? I would appreciate it if someone could clarify and provide more information about this situation.

I'm the professional gambler here and I know for a fact 95% of this community doesn't know how to apply perfect roulette strategy so it's just a random stroke or luck unlike blackjack that requires some sort of skill and user input.

bribing a staff to set you offlineactive. good luck pal
