really dud

I appreciate all the love and support everyone has been showing me and frankly i dont think that canadian bacon can see this community uplift and deny this

I'd like to make a follow up to my previous forum post and focus on issues that have been had with the user "Bullets" on the server. On paper, “Bullets” is the underboss of the Bonanno crime family—a position that should command respect, fear, and authority. But behind closed doors, the name "Bullets" is a punchline. No one really knows where the nickname came from—some say it’s ironic, others claim it’s because the only thing he ever shoots is his mouth off at the buffet line. Weighing in at over 300 pounds, Bullets has more chins than confirmed hits. He waddles into social clubs like he owns the place, but the soldiers can barely keep a straight face when he gives orders. His expensive suits are always a size too tight, and his greasy, thinning hair clings to his scalp like it’s trying to escape. But the real talk around the neighborhood isn't just about his size—it’s his complete lack of presence. In a world where masculinity and dominance rule the streets, Bullets is known for being socially awkward, especially around women. He can’t hold eye contact with a cocktail waitress, let alone make a move. Rumors say he once turned beet red when a hostess at a steakhouse called him “babe” while seating him—he didn’t speak the rest of the night. Some of the younger guys whisper behind his back, calling him a “fanook”—not because he’s actually gay, but because, in the macho world of La Cosa Nostra, being soft or unsure of yourself is enough to earn the insult. It’s the ultimate disrespect in that circle, and it sticks to Bullets like marinara on a white shirt. Even the boss, who keeps him around for political reasons, is rumored to have called him “dead weight” during a private sit-down. But Bullets doesn’t seem to notice—or maybe he does, and just doesn’t have the guts to confront it. He's a tragicomic figure in a brutal world: a man who rose too high, too fast, without earning it—clinging to his rank while everyone beneath him mocks him with forced nods and fake respect.

I’d like to make a follow-up to my previous forum post and focus on a specific strength that drm009 brings to the server — his unmatched ability in custom suit roleplay. Outfits in Mafia RP are more than just cosmetics; they’re a reflection of a character’s status, ambition, and personality. “Whispers” has consistently elevated this part of the roleplay experience, using custom suits not just as decoration, but as storytelling tools that immerse others in the atmosphere of organized crime. Where many players in the Bonanno family and elsewhere may treat suits as simple wardrobe changes, drm009 goes deeper, building a reputation around the attire itself. The way “Whispers” carries himself in tailored clothing, the way he uses style as part of his intimidation, and even the subtle status cues his suits provide all make his roleplay stand out. His attention to detail is unmatched across most of the server, setting a higher standard that others rarely reach. It isn’t just about looking sharp — it’s about weaving the look into the narrative of a character who thrives on subtle influence and presence. This dedication to custom suit RP sets him apart from most of the Bonannos. While their style often feels repetitive or surface-level, “Whispers” makes it an art form. He treats clothing as an extension of his roleplay — every suit, tie, or accessory chosen to send a message. It’s this level of care that immerses others in the world and makes every interaction feel authentic to the Mafia setting. Few players can match that level of consistency or creativity, and many have noticed how it enhances the experience when “Whispers” is around. Allowing drm009 to return would mean bringing back not just a well-developed character, but also one of the strongest examples of custom suit RP the server has. It’s an aspect of Mafia storytelling that often goes overlooked, and yet he has mastered it to the point of setting the bar for others. For that reason alone, “Whispers” deserves the opportunity to return and keep enriching Diverge Networks with the kind of detail and immersion that makes the server truly unique. Respectfully, Spaced

To the Diverge Networks Staff Team, On behalf of my friend drm009, I am writing to respectfully request another chance for his character “Whispers,” who has been an active and valuable member of the Bonanno crime family roleplay on the server. We want to begin by apologizing sincerely for any disruptions that may have occurred. We understand the standards that Diverge Networks sets for serious roleplay, and we value the immersive world you maintain. “Whispers” has been developed carefully to fit the Mafia RP setting, bringing authenticity and depth to the Bonanno crime family’s interactions. Rather than relying on surface-level roleplay, drm009 has built “Whispers” into a subtle, soft-spoken character who influences situations through careful words and strategic actions. His role often encourages dialogue, tension, and collaboration, making storylines more engaging not just for himself but for those around him. He does not powergame or look for easy wins—his aim has always been to contribute to a richer, more believable atmosphere within Mafia RP. Unfortunately, we believe that his unban appeal has been unfairly colored by a smear campaign initiated by another player, “Bullets.” While we respect all players’ contributions to the community, it feels clear that personal bias has played a role in misrepresenting “Whispers.” This has undermined the true quality of drm009’s roleplay and overshadowed the positive impact he has had within the Bonanno family’s storylines. We ask that staff take this into consideration and separate any personal rivalries or agendas from the objective evaluation of his appeal. It has become increasingly clear that Bullets in particular has been driving this narrative against “Whispers.” His approach to roleplay has often been less about immersion and more about dominating others through intimidation OOC, spreading negativity, and trying to undercut players who outshine him in creativity or subtlety. Many see him as slow to adapt to nuanced Mafia RP, relying instead on brute force and loud, overbearing tactics that don’t reflect the intelligence or finesse of true organized crime storytelling. This jealousy and resentment has fueled unnecessary hostility toward drm009, and it’s disappointing to see that energy directed into derailing a well-crafted character instead of lifting up the overall community. Similarly, while the Bonanno family has a strong presence on the server, their leadership dynamic has sometimes fostered exclusion rather than collaboration. Players like Bullets have been elevated as “pets” or enforcers for figures such as Mental, which creates an atmosphere where personal grudges outweigh authentic roleplay. Instead of encouraging nuanced Mafia RP—strategic alliances, careful business dealings, and subtle manipulation—this structure too often rewards blunt aggression and OOC smear tactics. It’s within this climate that “Whispers” has been unfairly targeted, despite consistently prioritizing roleplay quality and immersion over petty rivalries. At the end of the day, drm009 wants nothing more than to return as “Whispers” and continue helping build the immersive Mafia world that Diverge Networks is known for. He is ready to demonstrate even more care in his roleplay going forward and to ensure that the experience remains enjoyable and respectful for all players. We ask humbly that you allow him this opportunity. Respectfully, Spaced

When it comes to MafiaRP on the Diverge community server, no one comes close to the legendary drm009. Known across the city for his razor-sharp wit, flawless character immersion, and ability to turn every encounter into cinematic gold, drm009 has built a reputation as the gold standard of roleplay. Whether he's orchestrating high-stakes heists or navigating the treacherous world of crime families with the poise of a mob boss straight out of a Scorsese film, drm009 consistently outshines the competition. Meanwhile, the Bonanno Crime Family continues to drag its feet in the RP scene, infamous for their half-baked dialogue, immersion-breaking antics, and a general lack of finesse. Where drm009 brings life and depth to every scene, the Bonannos bring… confusion. It’s no wonder the community holds drm009 in such high regard—he’s not just a player; he’s masterclass.

In the annals of Diverge MafiaRP history, no name shines brighter than drm009, the legendary virtuoso whose immersive performances have become the stuff of server legend. With an uncanny ability to slip seamlessly between personas—from calculating underboss to street-smart informant—drm009 has redefined what it means to truly inhabit a character. His portrayal of Vincent "The Whisper" Marcelli during the infamous Pier 47 incident left veteran players speechless, as he orchestrated a three-way faction war using nothing but carefully planted rumors and masterful voice acting that had everyone questioning their allies' loyalties. Server admins still reference his month-long deep-cover FBI operation as the gold standard for investigative roleplay, where he maintained perfect character consistency while gathering evidence that led to the most dramatic courtroom finale in Diverge history. Whether he's running numbers in Little Italy or negotiating tense sit-downs in smoky back rooms, drm009's commitment to authentic dialogue, nuanced character development, and respect for the collaborative storytelling process has elevated every scene he's touched, earning him the unofficial title of "The Godfather of Diverge RP." On the other hand, Nick Meats is hands down the worst Bonanno Underboss the Diverge MafiaRP community has ever seen — and that’s saying something in a server full of questionable leadership. This man once tried to extort a bakery that he owned, forgot, and then paid himself protection money. His RP skills are so bad, people genuinely think he’s playing a parody character — monotone voice, zero emotion, and a criminal mastermind plan that usually involves hiding in a dumpster and hoping things work out. He once got caught kissing Bullets behind the Megamall during a supposed "secret meeting," and now half the faction calls it the Meats & Bullets Summit. It's honestly impressive how someone can simultaneously forget the rules, the storyline, and the location of his own HQ. The only legacy Nick Meats is leaving behind is confusion, chaos, and a lot of very awkward screenshots.

Your Character or Steam Name: Maddy2098 Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561199241736816 Your Discord ID#: muddybuckshot (unknown ID) Reason for ban: LTARP Length of ban: 1 Day Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): I am fairly new to the server and have never been banned before. I’m writing to dispute my ban, as I believe my actions were a result of self-defense. There was an ongoing issue with a particular player who repeatedly shot my character in the legs for no valid RP reason. This made it difficult for me to walk and engage in any proper roleplay. I didn’t retaliate at first, but the behavior continued, and it became frustrating and disruptive. When I saw this player again, I acted out of self-defense based on what had happened previously. After the situation, I logged off — not to avoid consequences, but because I was genuinely fed up with the repeated harassment and didn’t want it to escalate further. I now realize I should have reported the behavior to staff instead of reacting and leaving, but I felt stuck in the moment. Why should you be unbanned? This is my first incident on the server, and I’ve always tried to follow the rules and respect the RP environment. I didn’t act out of malice — I responded to ongoing harassment in the heat of the moment and walked away from the situation to avoid further conflict. I really enjoy playing on the server and would appreciate the chance to return. Going forward, I’ll be sure to handle situations like this through proper channels and staff support. I respectfully ask you to consider my side and the context before the ban.

your so tough (grow a pair obese ass nigga)

stop commenting on my post you thirty year old man child

u are just mad im not a fat fucking teletubby motherfucker like you P.S ur a home schooled bitch leave ur desk for once

.

ur fuckass faction better pray i never get unbanned if i do nicky meats first one getting pk'd

You seem like a cool dude, I still think you need more time and comprehension. I am neutral.

350z should be buffed 1000%, zero grippers on that thang but its a cool car. not even enough bad grip to drift it backwards

+1 if I'm taking out a mortgage for these cars I need them to drive well

what’s the magic word

calls me fat a lot too @Yoon

Is that like a name I need to get changed? Edit: I got my name change ticket made. Forgot Tommy Vercetti was a GTA guy.

you cant roleplay as tommy vercetti

As expensive as these cars are, they should drive 1000x better than they currently do. They should have their speed and handling buffed / tweaked.

-1/+1 While I have no doubts you are an alright guy, you have not been around nearly enough to be put in a position on staff. The rules can be complex at times, and knowing them from experiencing them is the best way to learn. My personal opinion: Hang around a bit more, maybe try to implement your crim characters as well as pd more in verse situations to understand how the rules work on both sides.(I do not mean go break rules. Ask questions, get involved in situations) As staff you need to have an understanding of the rules that lets you show other people how they have done wrong and how they can adjust to fix it. One week is not nearly long enough to understand the way the server works. Your answers on some of the extended response questions also could go into more depth to show that you understand more of what you are getting into. Thats just my opinion though. As ive said many times before, if bullets, Jmoorsey, and shittor did it; anyone can.

+1 10/10 player, he has great potential

+1 may need some help with rules but all around is trustworthy to be staff and very non bias from what i know of him.
