Your Character or Steam Name: Kurt The Biggest Steppa Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561199013278969 Your Discord ID#: tobins Reason for ban: OOC in IC Length of ban: 3 Days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): dispute Why should you be unbanned? 3 days is absurd when chat violations warrant a mute as a former staff member, when i was in the sit room the staff said I was previously warned several times (I had just joined the server right before posting the message) which he used to build a fallacy that I am the bad guy in this situation. This is an absurd ban when it should be a mute especially for speaking the truth. Many people were upset by my ban and said I should appeal this to challenge the tyrannical group this pedobait retard surrounded herself with. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

(Yes/No): Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? (Yes/No): Yes Provide an example of the unique Roleplay your faction will bring to the server / what type of roleplay we can expect from your faction (Images / Videos Preferred) - Overall The Galician Mob is a faction focused on character-driven roleplay. Our faction is based on a real-world group (The Galician Mafia), meaning we will have ties to real-world history. In the 1970s, the Galician Mob began using fishermen to smuggle cigarettes through European borders and into Spain. With boats leaving from the US allowing for a state-based monopoly, the individuals stationed in New York will continue to do what their ancestors did before them, getting cocaine from New York and pushing it back out into the waters under the disguise of fishing. Through the 1980s, the pressure continued to rise on American drug markets and cartels. The Galician Mob continued to utilize these established routes, shifting their focus to more lucrative items such as money laundering and the infiltration of politics, individuals in power, and legal networks. Apparel The faction has the intention to wear a relaxed clothing scheme. We will not force our members to wear certain apparel, opening the door to individual diversity in terms of custom apparel, etc. However, at times we may wear suits during certain roleplay situations. We have no issue with members wearing relaxed clothing as long as it doesn't stray too far from our factions ethnicity. Restaurant We’d like to turn the West Side Drug Store into our restaurant of choice. We have the intention of having the interior altered and changed for our purposes, as our faction has background ties to “fishing,” and we’d like to explore that side of the server in terms of fishing on the docks. Our intentions are angled toward the idea of fishing as a whole, as it ties into our background. Faction Goals Fishing wasn’t good enough for us—working too hard and getting not enough in terms of pay. We have the intention of distributing our racket through the city. Our goals consist of importing and exporting useful items through New York, making money, and possibly being in a position of power within the city. On a side note, we’d like to push out weekly fishing competitions highlighting the fishing side of New York. We aim to provide for our fellow fishermen and push forward the fishing community, whether that be giving out prizes and rewards to those who compete, or having a custom DUP for the area when we go through with it. We would like to smuggle weaponry and illicit substances obtained in New York back to Spain/Mexico for profit. Hiring Process Instead of hiring white shirts off the side of the road, dressing them, and forcing them to work in Don Pez, we plan to make sure they are a suitable fit for the faction—maybe taking them out to the docks for some fishing. Having them prove themselves to our ranking infrastructure, or even putting them to work after a small but necessary screening process. After all, Don Pez is well known for its diversity in food, taste, and employees. In terms of the screening process, we will have our soon-to-be employees out completing small tasks for us, such as making deliveries, handling any outstanding debts we may be owed, and showing not only their worth but their value. We’d like to explore the roleplaying aspect of the server more thoroughly in hopes this creates an even better environment in terms of faction-to-faction talks.

Your Character or Steam Name: Kyle Smith Your SteamID: 76561198223298300 Your Discord ID#: 177956330550722560 (cheese_masta) Reason for ban: PD Raid Length of ban: 5 Days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): So i made a decision last night that was not the most intelligent, i took 2 guns out of an unlocked cabinet in the pd evidence room on my cadet char when i decided to quit the PD due to issues with management. I was under the assumption because it was an unlocked cabinet that it would be whoever left it unlocked that made a mistake presumably making it a warrant/IC issue for the char. I would not have done it if i realized it was a ban-able offense. Why should you be unbanned?: I've been on this server for over 2 years now if my memory is correct, and this is my first ban ever on Christmas day. I've done a good job of staying out of trouble to this point and feel my track record alone is a testament to my point. Which is i would not have done it had i known it was not an IC issue, I rarely have issues with anyone, i get along with pretty much everybody. For what its worth i am sorry for taking the stuff. I feel being Christmas, being my first ever ban in years of playing, i clearly like being here and wont cause more problems if unbanned. I think I deserve another chance. It is also holidays and i have a few days off of work and it would be nice to be able to play before I've got to go back. I've also seen people with actual records get far less time for doing far worse things repeatedly. Thank you for your time in reading this. Merry Christmas. -Cheese Man Additional Information (images, videos, etc): N/A

The Galician Mob Underground Association mega alliance faction #11

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.

(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 ------------------------------------------------- What is your motivation/reason for applying?: My main motivation for applying is I want to better the server that I play on every day. There are way too many minges that roam around and hardly get punished, this goes the same with long time members of the server, way too many people with make alt characters to go around, talk shit, cause issues, RDM and RDM bait. I've been an active member on this server for over a year now, and the amount of rulebreaks that I have witnessed in my time and they get away with it, it's honestly unbelievable. I also feel like most of the time when a staff member is on, they only want to reach the minimum tickets required for quota and not actually try to help the server that they play on. It's unbelievable how braindead some staff are and completely oblivious to the rules of the server. I feel like I would be able to change that in the little amount I could. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I don't just care about meeting quota every week, I care about bettering Diverge Networks and actually putting in the time and effort to make it a better server to RP on. I show zero bias towards anyone, not my friends, not factions that I play in, I'm my own person. I can also devote a lot of time towards staffing since I don't have a j*b and spend most of my time on Diverge Networks anyways. A lot of time spent when I'm online is sitting around waiting, but that could change. If I become staff I would spend that "useless" time that I almost always have into staffing. I'm extremely passionate about enforcing RP and the rules of the server and I believe I could do so adequately. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Diverge Networks: Moderator (Around one month) Frontier Networks: Administrator (around 3-4 months) Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, Character Abuse - Organized Item Transfer / Metagame / Unapproved Diverge related discord Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: I can't speak for the community, but from what I can tell I'm in the sort of middle range. I'm not extremely well known like Coco, Vinny Lucchese, or Monaclu. But due to some positions I've held and controversial past, I'd say I'm known by many. I wouldn't say I'm 100% respected at all, I've been banned for extreme rulebreaks in the past (which I have learned from and I have improved on, I haven't broken a single rule since then and I'm trying to keep my record clean from there.). Of course, within RP I'd say most of characters are respected and looked up upon, I've mentored associates and I provide lots of help for new members not just in an RP sense, but to understand politics and rules of the server and stuff like that. I've never had a "minge" character before, all of my characters (from what I remember) are for serious roleplaying only, no tomfoolery. In character I'm sensible and dedicated, but out of character I like to help people with understanding the server and how it works, not to be "mingey" and showing the ways of MafiaRP. What is your favorite moment on Diverge so far?: I have 3 moments in mind. #1, my first interaction with gozmouz. I was dealing with a minge while on a cop character and I had to call staff for a force plea, when gozmouz accepted it, he came in and played a God/Jesus character and ultimately settled the situation. It was a super funny experience and great first impressions of Mr. gozmouz. #2, my first ever PK. This was back when the Callaghan Clan was still around, me and 2 other guys were brought to the barge and we had to wait there for a good 10 minutes when the caporegime brought in this associate that hadn't pay kickups in awhile. He gave us the codeword and we all unloaded our clips into him. This moment on the surface isn't all that special but it has sentimental value to me since after that day I was extremely dedicated to MafiaRP, I felt immersed and I felt like I belonged somewhere. 10/10 Roleplay back then and I wish I could experience it again for the first time. #3, another moment when the Callaghan Clan was still around, it was the biggest boxing event that I had ever hosted, me and (my IC best friend at the time) Gregor O'Connor were running a weekly SBC Shamrocks Boxing Championship night. It was the first time I ever ran a boxing event and it was the best one we've had. I don't know what particularly made it so great but about 40-50 people showed up, people from all over. We had around 5 or 7 matches that night and it started my love for boxing and it made me go on the whole "The Cannon" persona. It made me make boxing my characters whole personality and like I've stated previously, I wish I could experience days like this for the first time again. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: N/A ------------------------------------------------- Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: I would take a clip of the situation and make a report to any other staff member that is online. If I am the only staff member available, and I'm not in a Roleplay scenario at the moment, I would switch to my staff character and handle the situation on my own. (I would clip everything from the sit, to the incident that happened and send it to a staff member that holds seniority and get their opinion of everything, like if I handled it correctly and stuff like that.) 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 would gather evidence against them like clips and screenshots of how they are abusing. Then I would send everything I have to a member of UA or make a general ticket in the Diverge General and report whatever staff is doing so there. I would not confront them publicly nor directly as that could cause problems and conflict in the future or even during the moment. 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 not take the ticket immediately, I would wait for another member of staff to take it, I would also make it known in staff chat that their one of my friends or faction members and that I could possibly be biased if I take the ticket. If there is no staff besides me, I would take the ticket and continue with it as professionally as possible and as adequately as possible. This does constitute possible bias even if I don't realize it.

Steam Name: ASkull Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198016118146/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:27926209 Discord Username: .askull Age: 18 When did you first join the server: around 16 Oct 2022 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 4mo 3w 6d 9h 32m Time Zone: MST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 6 hours or more depending on the day. 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?: Forgot most of the stuff and need to be retrain Its been years since I was staff on a gmod server. 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?: * The reasons why I'm applying is because a lot of people minge late at night or early in the morning due to most staff members sleeping around that time. I normally play till really late at night/ early in the morning compared to most est players due to being 2 hours behind so when its 4 am for me I would still be on when its 6am for est, I also sometimes get home really late into the night from work and up for a decent bit and would hop on during minge hours. I been playing diverge since 2022 and I would like to help out the server in any way I can and make people feel welcome on the server and have a fun time with less minges just trolling around or rdming people because they got nothing better to do. I want to keep up RP in the sever and when the server is high pop I would also be on during that time and would help take tickets when other stuff would normally be busy taking another ticket like admins doing a pk ticket and someone has been waiting for an rdm ticket for 15 minutes. Most of my reasoning didn't change from my last appeal because I still want to apply for that reason after giving it some time since my denial I feel like I would be a better staff member now than back then. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * I was staff on gmod for a Jailbreak and TTT server so I have some experience in dealing with gmod players including the ones that come onto a server to troll and rdm (like bub games). I been playing since 2022 I have had experience on the server and RPing. I feel like I could manage a sit well because I have experience in dealing with customer support IRL and people like teenagers coming and being disrespectful, or straight up annoying as a manager you kind of just get used to it so when dealing with a minge I would be acting like it's a normal person and I wouldn't lose my cool in a sit. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Jail break for 2 months before the server shut down. TTT for 3 months before the server shut down. it was before covid so I don't remember much. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yeah a ton I used to be a minge way back in the day But I matured since then and take the server as serious to the best I'm about to. 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 I'm well known in the community, I been apart of a ton of factions rising in the ranks of them. I was Don Lispy for 2 months. And I been apart of 2 different alliances. Some people may not like me but a decent amount does. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: I have a ton of moments that are my favorite like GM events with faction members and friends. A fun moment for me was being don of a faction for a little bit even with 2 coups going at the end of the day it's apart the RP. This clip is just a fun GM my faction did with another faction that I found fun because it took a little break from grinding to having fun for 30 minutes. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/lSSDX7BqZpDb_vPzN?invite=cr-MSxUaHEsNzkyNzY2ODY&v=33 I found a ton of other gm events fun not just Pvp as gm event's just add something to do and helps force out RP in a way and it's a way for everyone to have fun when not grinding. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: None (Didn't Ask anyone this time) ------------------------------------------------- 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?: I would swap to my staff char and then take the ticket. If for any reason I can't because I'm in a middle of a RP Scenario I would ask if any other staff member could take the ticket for me. I would try to take any ticket I can and help them with the best I can. 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 would gather clips of the staff member abusing his powers and send it to a higher up staff member or make a staff report on him. I would also talk to them before to see if they know if what they were doin was abusing and wrong and try to help them out for the future but if it keeps going on I would report it when fit. 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 wouldn't take the ticket unless theres no other staff and DM a higher up or another staff member to be a third person in the ticket and ask for their opinions after sending them both clips. Before I dish out any punishment I would consult with both parties involve and a third party staff member through DMs before concluding anything in the sit while trying to remain unbias as possible and if needed beg another staff member to take it if I'm being bias.

Your Character or Steam Name: Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:628592126 Your Discord ID#: crispytacos0438 Reason for ban: Unauthorized pd raid | Mugging Char | Extensive POs Length of ban: Permanently Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? Back when I played this server frequently, I was very immature and would just go around calling everyone the n-word, go on random mugs and troll. I was mostly focused on making money and robbing people on my main character and did stupid stuff on my alts. In this time I did really enjoy the roleplay aspect of the server, but I did break the rules on occasion by accident. Although I did try to avoid getting into these situations and breaking the rules, but I was always doing something stupid and would always get caught up. I've been banned now for a little over a year and I want to say that in this time i've really stepped away from gaming for the most part and matured as a person. I really do miss roleplaying on this server and all the fun I've had. If I get unbanned, I plan to roleplay and add to the servers experience instead of take away from it. If I come back to the server I won't be mugging at all, shouting at people for no reason, or breaking any rules. I plan to join a mafia again, meet new people and have the same fun I had when I started without being immature and making rash decisions. I really do regret all the stupid things I did in this server that led to me being perminately banned and I apologize for them. If this does get accepted I just wanna say that I will be coming back to the server with a different headspace. Not someone who wants to mass mug and minge, but someone who actually wants to enjoy what the server has to offer instead of just troll people. Also, for this specific ban in question, I came into the PD and started shooting at like 3-5 cops that was arresting one of my friends and ended up accidentally shooting him aswell. I was on an alt character being stupid and just trying to find any reason to kill someone and didn't realize that killing cops inside of the pd is considered a pd raid. Even though I was just being stupid, I genuinely was trying to stay within the rules of the server as I had just came off a permanent ban. In this particular situation, I was trying to kill the cops and save my friend but I clearly wasn't thinking straight. I had no intention of doing an "Unauthorized pd raid" and didn't even know that that was a thing. Since playing on this server i've matured a lot and will be coming back in a completely different way. If I get another chance to be apart of this server I can promise that I will contribute to this community. No more minge, muggings, harassing people, and doing stupid stuff. I will be coming back strictly to roleplay and have fun with the people in this community. Like I said previously, I've read the rules a few times over and can almost recite them by heart. I enjoyed the time I had on this server and it would mean a lot if I could comeback. I apologise to all the people I came at for their race, religion, gender, etc while playing this server. I would like a clean slate and I promise I won't let anyone down if I get unbanned. Note: I can take the diverge quiz to prove that I am well versed on the rules now Additional Information (images, videos, etc): I've deleted all my medal clips so I can't really show this last altercation

Your Character or Steam Name: Spooky Pyro Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:1:69780698 Your Discord ID#: 666780178290311175 Reason for ban: Metagame | Extensive POs Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? It has now been more than a full year where I have been banned from Diverge and I still think about this server. Diverge has never really left my system and this is due to the amount of time I had invested into it as well as me nearly spending 3 years playing. I have around 4 months playtime and most of my hours on GMOD came from me playing this server. As I stated before, my ban stemmed from the completely unacceptable behavior that a server like this wont tolerate. On my first permanent ban appeal, I was unbanned on the claims of no longer exhibiting the behavior but 6 months later I was re perma banned. I was mad like anyone else would be but once my appeal got denied by James, I understood. I am not commemorating what I was doing but I will say that I had fun. Regardless I have seen the consequence trough me being perma banned and I can say I regret the metagame which lead to my permanent ban as well as the behavior I showed the server. No matter how little the rule break was it still gave me an unfair advantage and my IC/OOC actions had consequences like when I stalked Bonnano chars, trough what I knew OOCly, and then ratted them to Kosher about them planning a robbery which began the whole Olympus and Commission giga war, that never happened. I have never told anyone about how I got ahold of this information and it was 50/50 metagamed but I only snitched once they said something in game. My reason for snitching was because I knew it would cause some conflict and it in fact did. Not because I wanted Kosher to fight back but only because I wanted a conflict to fight in. This is not my first perma ban appeal and despite the 1 year that has passed I am still persistent on trying to return to Diverge since gmod is easily on my top 5 of games. Majority servers are the same Dark RP slop aside from a few serious RP servers. Gmod Dark RP servers are so saturated, its depressing trying to find another server that has different roleplay and genuinely can captivate my attention. As I have said before, there is not another server like Diverge and it's gun, law, and roleplay system. I do not intend on being as active as I was pre-perma but I want to at least get on from time to time to play so I can experience something different than the hundreds of Dark RP and Clone Wars RP servers there are. At the end of my last appeal Canadian said "Your ban record is quite extensive and I don't feel comfortable with giving you another chance sans conditions". Those conditions were I pay for an unban or I wait longer to remake another appeal. I not only waited the 6 month period but 2 more for a total of 8 months. I am deeply apologetic to harm I caused. I will hold myself for contempt but it has been a full year and I ask may I please receive another chance. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

Name of Faction: The Patel Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): Eleven Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Indian Name of Character running the faction: Aarav Patel Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): apolloooooooo. Your SteamID: 76561199497272726 Your Server playtime: Ten Days Do you acknowledge and agree to all faction rules as detailed on the server rules page? (Yes/No): Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? (Yes/No): Yes Provide an example of the unique Roleplay your faction will bring to the server/what type of roleplay we can expect from your faction (Images/Videos Preferred): The Patel Family brings a low-violence, family oriented, and cultural based crime RP. You can expect our faction to provide the best curry and Slurpee from 7/12 to bring TRUE diversity to MafiaRP. We are legitimate sales people and are very conservative. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): We will offer "Curry Sundays" and have special discounts on our cultural food. Our 7/12 will act as a community center like QuikTrip rather than just a shop. We’ll run small activities like tabs and IOUs, part-time jobs, and weekly specials to create interaction with our beloved NYC. A key feature is the late night snack stop, where after midnight the store becomes a quiet, safe RP space for players to socialize over slurpees and snacks which can build strong relationships and storylines without the need for crime and violence. Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): The Patel family arrived in New York quietly in the early 1980s as refugees after the India's prime minister Indira Gandhi's death, part of a wave of Gujarati immigrants chasing freedom rather than power. While the other big factions fought for big parts of territory in New York City, the Patels focused on building their entrepreneurship in supply chains, favors, and ultimate credibility with their peers. Over time, people began to rely on the Patels, not out of fear, but the feeling of trust and necessity. Loans/favors were given when banks refused. Jobs appeared when no one else would hire. Problems were solved prudently and the family learned that their way of power doesn't come from crime/violence, but from the dependency of the people. Today, the Patels present themselves as highly accredited business owners embedded heavily in the community. Behind closed doors, they operate through trades, obligations, and balanced relationships with other families. Everyone owes something and the Patels never forget. But they are patient, Very patient. We are humble people who care a lot about our people. Therefore, we will offer customary signing bonus to ensure all of our family is well-taken care of. We will also make sure to give out free food to the community and those who need it and serve as a charity. We will also ensure to practice our primary faith, Hinduism, after any conflict. As well as praising our Lord Krishna after any victory. We really want to focus being community oriented rather than having an individualistic mindset. As Patels, we believe in brotherhood and will die for any one of our trusted members. We believe in true authenticity and building trust with one another. Therefore, if you betray our trust we will not be as patient and will not take this lightly. Due to us believing in family principles we invite everyone with open arms and offer free curry, free deodorant, and other conveniences. We have our "Curry Sunday" which is our time to give back to the community and help each other. Our motto "Debts are remembered longer than insults"

Hi. I am the banning member of staff involved. You were fired from the PD by one of the IA LTs, this is something you can battle in a ticket with the Commissioner, they made a ticket and I took it, changing your name, removing your PD whitelist and giving you a charkick to reset you to make sure you didn't have any firearms/cuffs etc on your person before you were allowed to leave. Then the LT and a few other cops that were present told you that you needed to be searched to make sure you don't have anything on your person that you're not supposed to have. You instantly swapped characters to your other one, Aarav Patel. Then you swapped back to Amir Magomedov and when the cops said you will be arrested if you do not comply with their orders, you said "kill yourself fag" and then swapped characters again.

discord is a pretty big source of metagame also I think we should get rid of it also nobody should have discord

who is surprised gay taxi’s server didnt work out?!???

Hello diverge family! I am formally applying for a position on your staff team! I have been described on LinkedIn as a "rockstar" and "office superhero". My work experience is mostly people oriented, I was able to strike deals with Afghan villagers for opium. This proves my ability to work with the large British population on this server. I am a disabled veteran, I am a honest god fearing humble man, I am a proud divergian and long term player, I am committed to my role as an elderly black man and I will not break character even when taking tickets. Due to my experience I did not feel it was necessary to use your pre provided prompt, that is for the chumps. I think outside the box that's just the type of guy I am. Thank you for reading and accepting my application.

Turn the 7/12 into a functioning petrol station. This would increase realism and immersion on the server, create more possible roleplay scenarios, and help fight vehicle minging. Making 7/12 a petrol station would also help populate the upper side of the map, which isn’t really used most of the time. Giving players a reason to go there for fuel would naturally bring more activity to that area. A fuel system would help reduce vehicle minging. With the recent update to car repairs already taking a big step toward stopping people from just respawning cars, fuel would make vehicle minging even more expensive and inconvenient. 7/12 would also become a much more valued property. The owners could have workers who optionally fill up cars (similar to how it’s done in New Jersey), and players could tip them if they want. This would add small but immersive RP interactions. Another option would be to make 7/12 unownable and turn it into a convenience store. It could be robbable and sell things like food and vehicle-related items. Some items from the hardware store could possibly be moved there. Some other ideas this change would bring include another civilian job, the fuel deliverer. Shipments could spawn around the map at the request of a dealer, and workers could go pick up the shipments and drop them off at the 7/12. Portable fuel cans could also become a thing. You would be able to fill up cans of fuel and have them in your inventory incase your car runs out of fuel, could also be added to the pk system to burn bodies with. Companies could also create side businesses where people who run out of fuel can call a number to have their car refueled. There could also be a crime aspect added, such as the ability to siphon fuel from vehicles. This could use a system similar to lockpicking, with a 10–15 second timer. After that, you could start siphoning fuel into small fuel cans in your inventory, which could then be used for your own car or sold to an NPC.

(Yes/No): Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? (Yes/No): Yes Provide an example of the unique Roleplay your faction will bring to the server/what type of roleplay we can expect from your faction (Images/Videos Preferred): We aim to be a higher class of faction. Bringing elegance and luxury to the city, tying in with our British heritage. As our main business, we would run a gentleman’s club/lounge. This would be considered a higher class establishment, where a strict dress code would be enforced to uphold our classy appearance. Once established, regular members will have the opportunity to purchase a VIP membership to the club where once a member, they will have the opportunity to enter into exclusive giveaways, enter private auctions for exclusive items, eat and drink for free for life, attend private parties, participate in a gentleman's boxing league and much more. We intend to be more business focused, rather than on bloodshed. We aim to have a well established private society, with an illegal racket running in the background. For our members, we aim to offer a unique and refreshing roleplay experience. Don’t expect the typical stand in front of the door guard that everyone is tired of. We will offer immersive tasks and roleplay for our members to keep them engaged, even from the lowest rank. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): As stated above, we plan to hold private auctions for our "High Roller VIPS". The auctions would start at a much lower price than buying price so there will be a real incentive for people to participate. For faction members we aim to hold weekly "block parties" where faction members and guests can come to mingle. Appreciation and awards will be handed out to top performers of the week. We also want to give new people who come to the faction a more enjoyable time. No more sitting on a door for five years. We aim to have different positions for new members. For example errand runners, bodyguards, drivers, and bartending. One of our biggest goals is to keep new members interested instead of staring into the street senselessly. We plan to have open bar nights where drinks and food are free for anyone. To further iterate on our faction being heavily business based, we intend to build relations with other factions, but in the scenario that someone tries impeding on our business we wont hesitate to show face.

(Reference your unique RP from the question above): In the Kinahan we plan to open a good ol’ Irish Pub called “The Rusty Shamrock”, at least that was the name of the Pub we had back In Dublin. This allows us to not only have a good experience for the citizens of New York as they come through and get a drink, but lets us operate behind the scenes, doing deals, having sit-downs, and having that Irish private experience behind closed doors. Running the day-to-day of the Pub will be nice and time consuming for our Hangaround and lower members. In addition to the Pub and its dealings, The Kinahan also prides Itself on Its Independence, being made up of surviving members of the IRA and families who were victimized by the Orange Order. As such, we don’t tolerate being controlled or bottle-necked by other factions. Compared to your usual “Italian” group, we don’t just sit behind closed doors and complain, we get out there, we get our hands dirty, and most of all we’re not going to be quiet about it. The Kinahans are a group that won’t take shit, and aren’t afraid to receive it. We’ll frequently get our boys together to trash stores owned by people who’ve disrespected us, key their cars, and do everything we can to drive them mad until they’re ready for an ol’ Irish Shootout (aka we’re firebombing ya and lighting you up with AK’s, up the RA). As for event Ideas there are plenty of things we can do for our boys to keep them engaged. Being an Irish faction we can "Receive shipments of weapons” from the IRA, or even hold mini Racket Events (Context: NOT that racket change event you guys had recently) where they encourage members to bring in the most money they can to support our efforts with the IRA. Another type of event we can hold is a good ol’ drinking contest. We can work this into a variety of ways, maybe things like “Fastest while Drunk, Longest police chase while drunk” Etc. At the end of the day, the Kinahan Clan Is a brotherhood that prides Itself on Independence and not taking shit from any group or party, and we’ll do everything to remind our remembers that so long as we have one another, the Kinahan Clan won’t be suppressed or put-out by anyone. Tiocfaidh ár lá - "Our Time Will Come" Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): By the mid-1980s, Dublin was on edge. You could feel it in the air—the city was changing, the streets harder, more desperate. Christy Kinahan wasn’t a stranger to those streets. Raised in the rougher parts of Dublin, Christy wasn’t born into anything but struggle. He’d seen the kind of life most people couldn’t imagine. But it was a life that shaped him. A life where the only way out was to get your hands dirty and never look back. At first, it was small. Christy wasn’t from some big crime family—he was just a man with an eye for an opportunity. When the drugs started hitting Dublin in the '80s, he wasn’t one to shy away from the chance. Hashish, cocaine—it wasn’t glamorous, but it paid. And by ‘86, Christy was already working his way through the supply lines, moving product quietly but steadily. He didn’t need the spotlight. In fact, he avoided it. Christy knew how to keep his head down while other guys were out there making noise. He worked with the old-timers in the city—dock workers, shady business owners, the kinds of people who knew how to get things done under the radar. But by 1989, Christy wasn’t just sticking to Dublin anymore. He’d started making connections outside the city, talking to people who could help him spread his reach. He wasn’t just about the street trade anymore. The Kinahans were starting to grow, quietly, strategically. Money started moving through other businesses—construction firms, bars, shipping docks. It wasn’t the kind of work anyone would ever boast about, but it was the kind that kept the empire alive, building piece by piece. The real shift came when Christy took it international. The early ‘89s were when the game changed. Christy made his move with European and South American cartels, controlling the cocaine flow into Europe.

i really liked when he doxed me and multiple other players of diverge networks after being told to stop multiple times! haha what a silly joke that was right guys #freejmoorsey

Your Character or Steam Name: Chxnge Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:574656352 Your Discord ID#: 735907102140137524 Reason for ban: NITRP Length of ban: Perm Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? 6 months ago I received my second permanent ban, I want to give a sincere apology to the staff and community I affected with my selfish actions by constantly rdm baiting, having no intention to rp or get along with anyone on the server. I was usually just running around and mugging random people as a way to hustle my money but I would do these things in the wrong way (on newly made chars) and I would usually start problems with many businesses in the city. I genuinely want to apologize for my actions and the bad experience I gave to others, I would love for a second chance to prove that I've taken these 6 months into consideration and wont ruin this chance again. I honestly just want a new start mainly because I will not be causing problems and arguments with factions anymore, I was targeted by certain people in the community and was taking my anger out on people who didn't deserve it which was not okay of me. I got a brand new PC for Christmas and would love to come back to the diverge community, I would love to get hired somewhere and start a relationship with a faction that I can actually build many friendships with and make connections other than constantly making enemies. I miss the experience of diverge overall and will no longer take it for granted if I get another chance, I want my apology to be heard to all the staff members and members I affected even if this appeal gets denied.

Name of Character: Howie Hoang Character ID: dont remember SteamID: STEAM_0:0:90789839 Your Discord ID#: rufie. Date of PK: 1.1.26 Reason for PK: cop death - I was offline at time of PK but spoke with PKing admin over discord. Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: So essentially from my perspective, I was firing a warning shot at a guy from hardware rooftop - and by warning shot a leg breaker at Derek Caputo. After the shot everyone started running towards hardware including two cops (larry and the PKing probie). It seems I missed acccording to a lad with me iron sights suck (but skill issue is the real cause ;-;) The probie then gunned me down immediately with no dialogue whilst I was just about to have a dialogue with senior officer larry and derek who was coming up to rooftop to be the negotiator [for some reason HAHA] (the probie asked larry "can i shoot him" and then just shot me without any confirmation by larry. When he said "can i shoothim" Immediately i was hovering over the gun incase he did whilst i was hugging the wall to hide the g3 gun on my back). I was trying to get out of it by complying and talk my way out of it (as in my head I thought they're detaining me and the guys on the rooftop but larry was talking about jumping off the roof top so was like oo chance to escape and they werent aware of the case). But the probie immediately gunned me down and then PKd me after I logged off later on. I gave him the benefit of the doubt cos he was new and its new years so didnt report him for RDM, but when offline the Pking admin (Moon) messaged and we briefly talked about the case - she made me aware the shot hit the probie instead accidentally. Which I wasnt too aware cos i wasnt aiming at him and waited to isolate the guy, hence surprised I was Pkd (and definite cross fire) the gun mustve had wacky recoil for it to hit him. Nor was I an active threat whatsoever and being fully compliant, I was NOT targetting the cop etc. But even if it was the case there were a couple other people with me on rooftop so how did he know it was me ;-; point being it was quite the cross fire and insta gunned me down and coincidentally turned out I was the one who got him in the crossfire out of 2/3 people. Twas crossfire Moon said that on the logs it looks valid which i understand but tryna an appeal in case i can get my char back given the wacky circumstance. If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: I managed to get a clip but sadly only managed to salvage just after the shot being fired cos i clipped it far too late it seems like..

In taking away the ladder behind little italy, the only way to *get onto the rooftops* is now this: \ This provides access to the railway, which you can use to get onto a number of public rooftops, that the police utilize for surveillance. Right now, cops are unable to do that. Because this is a fire escape. If they go on the rooftops, they've implicitly broken the law. NOW, the EASIEST way to fix this is to just have the DOP designate this as public usage. Very simple, a small memo, legally protects officers, reboots a HUGE portion of cop RP (sitting on rooftops, spying.) it didn't go well. My suggestion is simple Either: 1. Add a new ladder, public use 2. Have the DOP make the ruling. BRING BACK DETECTIVE ROOFTOP RP!

It would be nice if our characters could come home after a long day of committing crimes or enforcing the law to a family in their townhouse. It makes no sense that they’d just be hanging around their front and trafficking drugs all day, where do gangsters sleep? Family roleplay, more town houses, more props, npc children that will grow up as time goes on, when fully grown it can make money for you but you have to bring it food and items or it will die. Family dinner roleplay, thanksgiving overhaul. Vendors and or factions that can sell equipment such as couches, Gun safes and lock boxes in your town house. Laundry machines, dish washers, ovens, gives female players more realistic roleplay opportunities. Just doing some brainstorming here, hopefully some of this is taken to heart, I just want to see the townhouses utilized more. Think Skyrim hearth fire dlc.

Right now with the recent changelogs, you cannot process a whole inventory/have multiple processed shipments anymore. You must collect your shipment to be able to collect the shipment out of the processor. What a lot of people did before was process a whole inventory and have all the processed shipments sit there until they were done and then they would sell them. However this new update has totally killed processing and now takes even longer to do a full inventory. I'd like to see it reverted back to how it was or just make it so all the shipments combine into one like @DopeAsRoe suggested in staff chat, or even just put a cap on how many shipments there can be at one time.

On some real shit fuck you -1 but its the day of gifts so i gift you a +1 for ban appeal. Let this man back in since his socks look like this.

genovese had their banks raided by *someone* odessa got wiretapped to death kirov got wiretapped, and both pked the don and the replacement don and died bonannos are the future victim of 30 colombo detectives 14k is dead, basically, just out of lack of interest i guess i think it was the OG cassanos that UA just deleted iirc whatever that gay russian one was that had like 5 players, i pked 3 of their guys on my crim character when they tried to mug me, then I got pked for triple murder and then their faction never recovered (i mean, it wasnt doing well anyway) and was deleted there was some irish faction that the detectives infiltrated, got into their HC, and persuaded to leave their alliance and then they phased out of existence every irish faction dying was sad, they had good RP they just couldn't keep people interested

people like ix crazy abuse the mechanic and do it on people like new players with no roleplay behind it just to bait names also if enough people do it it’ll cover your screen

Brotato chip is mugging niggas with nothing on them

You’re retarded nigga

Nice rep pal

No! -Sent from my Motorola DynaTAC 8000x

-1 All in all, I think this would run a lot better as a civilian faction rather than randomly adding a crime aspect to it. PRO - Diverse ethnicity CON - Backstory leaves a lot to be desired. Lots of 'this happened' but not enough 'why' - Low playtime. - RP ideas are stale. Don't really see anything new in terms of RP ideas. When it boils down to it, you plan on running a shop. - Your whole faction idea doesn't make sense to me. You're 'low-violence'? to me that just reads like you're going to get bullied by everyone because you won't retaliate. IMO, you may be better creating this faction as a civilian faction and becoming Indian oil barons. - It would be great to see someone successfully run 'IOU's / Loans' but in my experience it doesn't really work. What do you have in place to stop people creating new characters, rocking up and asking for 20k and then them blowing it and getting PK'd by police? - I can honestly see this very quickly becoming a minge faction where people join to use an awful indian accent.

I was playing and noticed the time on my menu was different than the NORMAL timezone: I've compiled a list of reasons why we should use EST (normal time) 1. It's the middle of the earth. As you can see from this image of the earth, It's obvious that EST is the center of the earth (please see the even distribution of all continents AROUND the east coast) 2. It's where our founders LANDED and COLONIZED (stinky natives need not apply) The FOUNDERS were such fans of the east coast they literally decided to make a COUNTRY there (based), the western timezones were an AFTERTHOUGHT to expand SLAVERY (bad we hate that ew) 3. Florida is on EST, which is where all the resorts are and disney land. This means people LOVE the east coast. 4. If Charlie Kirk were alive today, he'd want us to lowkirkenuinely use EST as the main source of our service (peace be upon him) I don't know what timezone this gay clock is but I KNOW that est is the way to go. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

First off I can understand the thought process of that being an in character issue cuz in reality a trainee could 100% rob the police station if a higher up left something unlocked and be on the run for it. So I don't believe he purposefully did it to break the rules. Secondly some of you seriously responded with some unnecessarily hostile and from what I can tell intentionally aggravating messages in discord. The first dude was being a dick over cheese masta asking if he could get some help because he doesn't think he should be playing gmod on Christmas eve. Which is none of his fucking business when he plays and there's no need to be an asshole about it. Nor is it anyones place to start telling him he's bullshitting or covering up him snapping by saying his mom is sick. he got a reply saying "go spend time with family" (like he can't play gmod cuz it's a holiday...) he then replies saying he's on gmod cuz he cant be with family and y'all start saying he's bullshitting and making excuses? Who the fuck do you think you are that you can be talking to other grown ass men like that? I know Cheese irl and his mother is struggling with her health and y'all are calling him a liar and wonder why he crashed out so hard on you guys. He asked a simple question got a rude reply then stated why he's not spending time with family and then y'all say he's using his sick mom as an excuse for "snapping" when he literally did no such thing. Yall were nothing but disrespectful to him and quite frankly your willingness to jump in and call him a liar and use his sick mom and as ammo against him is sickening and rather infuriating. YOU people need help and YOU went too far way before cheese did. P.S. I dont think you guys really know what snapping is cuz saying "Thanks for being a dick about it" is not what you call "snapping"

Although He DID ROB THE PD AS A CADET, I think five days may be a little long. Maybe some holiday cheer and a reduction are due. Would be an awesome Christmas present for Mr. GI Jew the American Hebrew.

bro i told u the other day, it literally already happened, no one just invited u to help lmao

what football club does the wright family support?

not sad, but very much deserved was the NOI, for whatever the most recent iteration was (i think the 3rd or 4th atleast)

what kind of advantage did you gain through cheats? if you care so much for the server, why even cheat in the first place?
