Name of Faction: The Callaghan Clan Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 25 Members and growing everyday Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc.): Mob Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Irish-American Name of Character running the faction: Kieran Callaghan Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): mamezee2233 Your SteamID: STEAM_0:0:189825768 Your Server playtime: 3w 1d 18h 33m 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): As an Irish faction, we plan on focusing on roleplay before grinding and becoming robots to quotas. Choosing to be a place where people can have a fresh experience on the server that hasn’t been done a hundred times. Doing special events for our Clan such as acquiring weapons to ship back home to our Fenian brothers who need our support in these dire times. Doing RP drug deals with other groups on the server. As well as other special Irish-themed RPs such as causing issues in the city by being obnoxious and drunken Irishmen. (This does not mean we will minge around but we aim to contribute to roleplay) With the experience that this high command of this faction has, we can produce a lot of organic roleplay that some others would rather not do. We aim to be a realistic Irish Mob doing events in whatever property we own, Handling any problems with RP always in mind and making sure our faction is thriving in all areas without pushing one objective over the other. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): As most people in the city do already there are obvious things such as weekly meetings, clan dinners, and organic Irish roleplay. But on top of that during the peak hours on the server, we will aim to contribute to roleplay with other factions. We plan on always being around going to different properties and trying to roleplay things out the best way possible. My goal is you will always see an Irishman at least once a day because we will be out walking on the streets. We want things to be anonymous when it comes to our new hires so taking them on drives without telling them where the destination is will encourage RP. We will teach all our new hires how to do whatever jobs need to be done and the basic grunt jobs that need /me’s to do them. It will define what kind of main base RP we do depending on what property we get. We would like to be hired to cause harm to people who need to be taught a lesson. I would also give Gamemaster privileges to use my faction in events where there is a chance for a lot of RP to happen. If accepted, we plan on making this a strong faction that will not be like other Irish factions that have been on the server before. We will bounce off of the Italian RPers and try and make a fun experience for everyone in each faction.

+1 great rpers and would be great to see irish faction.

+1 Thomas and the people he has chosen for leadership would do great for a faction. Finally an irish faction with opportunity to make it past a day in the server ( ehmceltic club, ciaron seamrog ) I cannot wait.

+1, app seems solid- especially the ranking structure. The backstory was also well written. When I played the server last, not to many people wanted to do “restaurant rp” anymore so to see it make a comeback would be mint.

+1 Thomas is a great active rper and would do amazing running this Irish Mob.

+1 Good rpers All Fax, No Printer. Good Good, No Bad.

+1 A good Irish faction will be great, and I think Thomas could do a great job running this faction. Just don't fall into the IRA trap and make it an actual nonterroristic Irish mob

+1 Was a capo in a previous faction I was in, and did pretty good job.

+1 good rp good guy and will make a good faction leader

prob gonna be commission but its wtv, solid app, solid guy. +1

+1 Thomas is a good guy and a good leader i think he will do good running a faction. i see alot of RP with an Irish mob.

+1 good rper, good application, good backstory, would be a great addition to the server

+1 A good leader always had the best RP nothing but positives if this gets added

+1 on this. Good application and I enjoyed reading the backstory and proposed hierarchy.

+1, Nothin but love from me, Best capo ive ever met and definitely gonna run a fire faction

+1, let the irish cook!

Name of Faction: Kostas Crime Syndicate Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 13 known members Type Of Faction: Greek Crime Syndicate Ethnic Background : Greek Name of Character running the faction: Cyril Kostas Your Discord # dopeasroe Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:116617909 Your Server playtime: 1mo 3d 18h 30m Do you acknowledge and agree to all faction rules as detailed on the server rules page?

(Reference your unique RP from the question above): We are a group of hardcore larp/impov players. Our members can always count on us to set up missions to go on, and story lines to be apart of. One example would be that when we are going promote a member to Senior Associate we set up a bait car without their knowledge. We would set up a mock up stealth mission in which they have to steal the car to prove their loyalty to us, as well as observe their problem solving skills.

In-Game Name(s): Walter "Lee Harvey Oswald" Dunbar, Lieutenant Kion Por, Ryo Masa, Assistant District Attorney Joseph Mariano, Jaxon "Jinx" Johnson Steam Name: anzati1 Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/anzati1/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:150242301 Discord Username: anzati1 Age: 20 When did you first join the server: 2021 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 1mo 4w 1d 2h 55m Time Zone: EST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 3-6 hours per 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?: 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 5 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: I get on at really weird times when not many staff are motivated to do tickets OR when there are simply just no staff on to do them. I wanna help with the "downtime" of the server, which is mainly when I get on. I've got quite a list of notes and bans, but with my schizophrenia I can instantly swap personalities to a serious staff man. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I've been playing the server for quite a while, and only ever stopped playing once between 21 and 23. I DO know the rules suprisingly. While I don't have the biggest name on the server, it's mainly because I don't care for ranks in factions. In general, you should chose me over other people so that the staff team can compensate for the people who get on at the same time as me. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Long ass list, don't remember ranks or lengths but just know that I have almost 17k hours in gmod. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: 7 bans, 7 notes. 1 ban is super funny. Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: They would all say I'm a great guy serving the community by donating clothing to orphan children and picking up trash off the street. I've been here for quite a while but not many old players from 2021 play anymore, if they do then they're apart of a very small group that has stayed playing. My reputation is usually Kion Por as the hard ass guy, or the clown suit guy cause thats a pretty big thing on the server. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: Probably approved riots or just playing cop, theres always something to do as PD. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Not a clue, didn't really ask anyone, I think if they cared enough they'd comment. ------------------------------------------------- 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?: Make a ticket or talk in admin chat like anyone else, I'm not above staff or rules whatever, I shouldn't be taking my own tickets or dealing with my own situations because of potential bias towards the player who RDM'd me. If no staff replies then thats that, other players have to deal with the same thing so I should also have to do that ya know. Its kinda like a DMV line, no one gets to cut it. 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?: Create an evidence list to prove my points then bring it up with someone higher ranked then me on what the next steps are and obviously hand over whatever i got and relevant information. 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?: Fuck em bruh, ruthless ass mf i am. If they're breaking rules, they get the appropriate punishment, don't care who they is. If its obviously intentional, its their fault and they should know the rules. Also honest to god, I don't know half the people in my faction.

+1 Good rper, good dude.

Thank you for your reply. First I want to explain that this is not going to be the IRA. We never planned on it and it never will. This High Command comes from years of Italian roleplay. There is going to be no IRA or anything of the sort happening in this faction. I have seen some Irish factions that have been accepted, and have either turned into something else or as you said turned into an IRA. While I am in charge of this faction, we aim to contribute to roleplay as a proper Irish Mob. Taking Inspiration from movies and how they acted in real life. I don't know if we know each other, but I hope with this I can change your mind about thinking this faction is going to be another IRA.

+1

Had a blast multiple times and everytime it has been different an brings more players together

+1 bring em back

+/- 1 Would need to be very careful with balancing this so it wouldn't be abused or just turn into a grindy mess. My idea would be make it so a player can only "lockpick" an ATM if there's another player currently accessing it (using the menus actively making sure they're not AFK). Gives a $100-250 payout, then there's a 5-10 minute cooldown or something which applies to all ATMs to prevent someone from running from one to another. Could implement Hoovis' idea (quoted) about getting an individual item which it sold to a different NPC or another player.

Fuck the weather, we need those pants.

I think what James was trying to say was when people pay the fee for surgery, what they are really paying for is the medical event that these guys will perform and as well as the medical event they get an event item like a rib, jar of organs, etc. depending on what the RP situation was. It creates RP situations and event items with some significance behind them to build character background.

Making certain items like fish only acquirable through fishing with a fishing rod. Would create a fish market for businesses to buy fish from frequently.

Niggas who dont complain ONG (real shit)

Basel returns and brings oil with him. +1

+1 Good application PRO - Great backstory content, love the brochure idea. - Great play time and an established player of the server. - There is a need for some oil competition atm, I'd love to see some more activity in oil CON - Don't really think there are any, just that I think oil factions need to start having a degree of RP in them so they're not just copy and paste of previous oil factions, which tend to be quite boring.

+1 - Good application, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what this organization can bring to legal rp on the server. Basel knows his shit and has the experience needed to run a faction. We're so sorely lacking in interesting legal rp, and this could be part of the solution. Easiest +1 I've given recently, good luck to you my man

+1 History speaks for itself. Most factions that are around that long, fall on hard times once in a while. The Cassano's have been one of the pinnacles of mafiarp for many years in the past, there's no reason it can't return to its former glory.

+1 I've already fallen in love with the Rockefeller's as far as legal factions go, but as with all good companies, competitive fuels the passionate soul of a business owner. I think Brown & Sons Co. can fit into that slot perfectly. However, the +1 isn't given simply so I can see competition. Basel has a reputation as an amazing faction leader and a man of the people from what I can see. My friend Lemon has told me a lot about him as well, and if Lemon trusts him, I'd trust him with such ease. To that end, if I ever venture more into the legal side of roleplay, I know a place I'd love to call home. Good luck to your faction!

Dude look at the taxi job, speedy delivery drivers, and city workers jobs. Theyre not factions made by people, thats what the @Micky2DEvito is trying to say here. I also support this have more jobs that new players can join into can really help retain and teach some of the basics of the server just by existing.

+1 I don’t think i need to glaze but i do 100% believe he is capable of changing the legal rp and bring people to that side of the server.

+1 Experienced leader , current void in legalrp outside of the lame ass courts

+1 I would be very interested to see how this faction impacts the legal roleplay aspect of the server and the broader rp environment as a whole. It seems like they've got their stuff sorted so I think it's worth a shot.

+1 Basel is a former faction leader so he knows what he is doing.

Basel finally posts after question number 956

+1 As the Head of HR for Rockefeller Oil, this is a well done app from what it seems, you did an amazing job with the back story, and the brochure is a beautiful touch, would love to see some healthy competition in the oil market!

+1 more oil would be good sounds like a good idea to me

-1 IRA was a thing and was taken done, it is basically the IRA

no addon needed, James, you are an okay guy!

I originally put a -1 on this but i'd happily change to a +1 Cassano was my first faction all those years ago, on a diff server. I just hope the right people come back to push the faction forward.
