Hello there! 1st most viewed faction application below Cassanos have 38 +1s and 3 -1s Your application has 31 +1s and 21 -1s There is a MAJOR difference between the response of the two applications. Cassanos has practically no -1s and the ones that are there are from minges, rejects, etc. All of its +1s are from a wide variety of people but for the most part all respected and valued members of the community from both the Commission and Olympus. Majority of your +1s are from new forums account or +1s being posted multiple times by the SAME people that clearly have an IC benefit from you being accepted ( ehm.. takahsai-Kai ) Meanwhile most of your -1s are from people with actual experience on the server lol. Your application is the 2nd most viewed not because of its quality, but because of its controversy, it’s stupid to make the claim that you are getting attention for being great and amazing. Since the application was put up there been a number of issues you have made - Had the mingiest name I’ve seen in some time - Poached members of multiple other factions, ruining roleplay. I myself first hand witnessed one of your members whitelisting a girl to Takashai, then seconds later the girl made a ticket asking to be un white listed because she didn’t realize that’s what you were doing. - Have shown time and time again that your faction is primarily led by minges - Wanted a legal racket while being an illegal faction, demonstrates that you don’t understand server concepts and systems while wanting to start a faction, none of your members have been above capo and it shows. - You have a guy wearing a fucking backwards pot on his head in that meeting room, great roleplay! I suggest you stay as a crew since that seems to fit your needs best, from there you can work your way up and get more experience, then put this application up in the future.

Patrons will be able to experience a purebred Irish pub from the streets of New York City. There are many pubs/bars located around the city, but none will be at the quality of ours. The Irish are second to none. Additional unique roleplay experiences the O'Hara Family will add to New York City would be the introduction of authentic fighting sports, such as boxing, mixed martial arts, kickboxing, and Muay Thai. Car meets and car shows would be another addition to unique roleplay experiences. The addition of the O'Hara family would be the biggest faction addition Diverge Networks has ever seen. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): Events that the O'Hara would use to promote activity within our faction and to keep people interested would be our 100% purebred authentic Irish pub, our fighting games that include boxing, mixed martial arts, kickboxing and Muay Thai, in addition regular car shows and meets. Furthermore we would organized themed nights celebrating various aspects of Irish culture, such as whiskey tasting events to fight nights on a regular basis. These events would get all diversity groups interested from the African-American to the Jewish. By curating a diverse array of events and activities that reflect Irish culture, the O'Hara faction would be a massive addition to roleplay in New York City.

hi! as Takahashi I -1'ed this app so did a capo, and I can say to the best out of anyone in the server that this faction is not worth it they quite literally ONLY show up to meetings and then leave after that, they also main their clown characters over their actual characters and their erm consig/UB is a idiot minge goober if needed i can provide context to anyone wanting

+1

I would rather see this faction running around than a cassano remake

If im correct the ghetto's 4-8 apartments on the new map are going to be F2 buyable by anyone

Also, I'd like to note that you were doing Hashimoto Jewelers, and once that didn't come out well because a faction that solely operates on custom jewelry-related items wouldn't pan you. You didn't even try to make it a business or any RP after that; you just kind of dumped it. And now you're doing NASA, which doesn't even make any sense. It seems like you're just hopping to trash ideas that revolve around custom ideas with no actual RP. Kinda just seems like you're trying to scam everyone for their schekles then hopping to a new idea, like all of your ideas are new ill give you credit, but if you look at it from a bigger picture, it's the same thing random custom items that haven't been done "donate to fund the business' after a week hype dies down a new idea. You make about 2m off these, and you just try to continue to grow it, and after that doesn't pan out again, as stated, you just move like you're lame, and it needs to be pointed out. (Also erm you tried to bribe someone to marry you in game which is kinda cringe)

+1, basel himself has loads of experience running factions, beyond that I have spoken to him ingame on the character he plans to run this faction with and I can confidently say I'm sure he will do a wonderful job doing such.

+1, this guy was fun to be on Somespy's radio show with and is experienced.

-1 a bunch of minge losers; you don't even want to RP in the faction you're in now. Ur, all just a bunch of dickheads. You also would rather RP as literal clowns, minging than on ur main chars, like I'll solo ur entire faction. Should replace your consig iris Kostas/transitioned is not a good one

+1 more legal factions would be cool and Basel knows how to run a faction. Great RP.

Name of Faction: Brown & Sons Co. Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 7+ Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Legal Oil Company Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): American background; though all races/ethnicities will be hired. Name of Character running the faction: John Brown Jr II Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): baselsamarah Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:708116014 Your Server playtime: 3mo 6 day 23h 1m 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): My top priority will be ensuring the sale of oil daily, and creating a legal faction/company completely neutral and uninvolved with any faction conflict/politics. Members of every faction is welcome and encouraged to join/participate. I hope to also shine a light on Law Firms and Security Firms, giving them an actual platform, a form of compensation, allowing for RP and hopefully bridging a gap between the legal and illegal aspects of RP. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): Hella oil sales, events related to Gambling such as game shows, Sports-betting and Paintball matches available to the entire server to participate, that will take place on various faction owned properties (with permission) to gain mutual positive attention, Introducing a mega-company that would induce IC RP with lawyers, government personal, members of PD, members of illegal factions regardless of "conflict/politics". Another big plus is the extensive yet simple discord server, that will be extremely supportive for newbies to Faction Leaders. The wind blows a brochure into your face… (only works on pc) Long Backstory

+1 Come outchya black n tans

Display car you have access to, do not display car you do not get access to, or pages. Perhaps !

+1 great faction

×1 classy gentlemen

+1 oh my god another italian faction in 1980's mafia roleplay

Hey so i was the guy who requested order's on you and also killed you. last night/early morning you were driving around city hall like a retard on the sidewalk part and atm area. you also ran me over and a worker at bella luna and drove off. the worker at the bella luna and i chased you and i saw you enter pd. later that night me and the bella luna worker saw you hanging around cops after a few officers were looking for a guy matching my desc for shooting someone in your car. an hour or so goes by and your in your car in city hall trying to sell 2 workers at the bella luna (of them is a manager there) meth around city hall and being pretty open about it too. i suspected you as a rat after cops were looking for me and you hanging around cops even driving one of their cars and trying to sell meth openly. you were bring heat to yourself and could hurt the faction and also me when you snitched on me and the bella luna worker when he tried to shoot you in self defense after you ran him over. and i also been hearing from friends of ours that you been acting like a retard before that and i had also seen it for myself. this pk is valid don's can order pk for any reason and i gave my consig a few reasons to order your pk and he gave me the order.

+1 Well mannered people from what i've seen. Would def like to see them around

+1 white boy summer

+1 Good RP with these guys, would be good to see an Irish faction on the server.

Thank you for applying for a faction. Unfortunately your application has been denied. We do not believe your faction or application is sufficient enough to be accepted. You may re-apply with the above issues rectified, when re-applying keep in mind that a well written application with good grammar, and a detailed backstory will help in getting accepted.

This will be getting an enormous, massive, gigantic, monumental, bulky, colossal, jumbo-sized, and all-around hefty +1 from me!

bro forgot he was banned on this account

AI checker said 2.08%- more like I wrote only 2.08% 🫨

An application so good you gotta +1 that bitch twice.

+1 Dont know em as they’re never anywhere to be found IC Distasteful interaction EVERY time (the boss seems cool tho) irate screaming in VC Openly disrespect our family ( then wonders WHY we dog shit on them verbally) Never able to attend scheduled meetings (WEEK/S in advance, inactive??) claims they are NOT part of family (though when you press “tab” you can see them CLEARLY listed under the family, so thats kinda… delusional) looks for ANY reason to start or be part of an argument IC and OOC about the DUMBEST most IRRELEVANT shit one could even conjure. id love to see em out of our hair.

great guys, rp'd with them. very reliable. +1

GRAHHHH THEIR DON KILLED HIMSELF ON HIS COLOMBO CHAR BECAUSE HE DIDNT WANNA PLAY LET ME MASS -1 THE FACTION APP GRAHHHH

so that's why you make a new discord account for your new steam account, "why can't I join!!" god some people are just utterly braindead

-1 the app could be written better. Nothing really Unique about this faction. You also put hard core rp” for the kind of rp your going to bring to the city but there isn’t really any details about the hardcore rp you would be doing.

These guys are constantly running around just grinding ive seen 0 RP from them and any interaction ive had is absolutely fucking terrible these guys are just stuck up ass holes tbh. PENDRED DO NOT ACCEPT THESE RETARDS HUGE -1

+1 need more place for oil, rockefeller keesp getting seized

+1 Legal faction great idea. I think we need a couple more legal factions.

FREE BOURBON FOR EVERYONE AS SOON AS THE SHIPPING CONTAINER REACHES SOUTHSIDE DOCKS!!! As the lore of the faction; Brown & Sons Co. Is the largest and oldest brewer in the United States! That can only be true if our alcohol is available for sale to the public and sold by all/most businesses active within the city! (totally a bribe lol)

+1 I thought I +1'd this a while ago but I didn't. This could be a really interesting faction and I think Basel has the right idea.

Me and you are gonna be besties

As the CEO for Rockefeller I support this being a faction. I look forward to working with you.

+1 I think the server can benefit if we decide to add another civilian faction.

+1 definitely has the chops

+1, obvious reasons

HELLO EVERYONE Thank you all for +1’ing my faction application! Promising to do something and doing something is two different things, so I do not plan to throw out a bunch of empty promises- I truly do wish to improve the server for the better and I do feel like the “legal side” of the RP on the server could benefit from it; as well as benefit it. Yap aside, the reason for this message is to update everyone that Brown & Sons Co. will not be indulging in the stock market as promised in the brochure (as the new business system created by our Governor won’t have any), so in it’s place I plan to open up 2 other successful, profitable legal operations that I will personally ensure the workers gain profit, along with the other 4 legal operations within the company that are planned- Best part is, not every person working for the company has to be whitelisted(only the main ones and oil workers have to be of course, which understandably a lot of oil workers may be alts for their own factions which is fine as long as they don’t break server rules), however I will set a swift oil production in place that will see a daily sale of oil at any given time of the day. Legal work isn’t boring, it just doesn’t pay very good- though I will see to it that it works well, pays well, and is supportive. A true “all in one stop n’ shop” company that is on the people’s side. All the people. This faction/company will guarantee a wide variety of value to anyone and everyone and touch all bases from new players to faction leaders, with a wide array of assistance from legal help, to dupe builds, to event management and help- You name it, Brown & Sons Co. has a team that can do it! Last but not least is I encourage people to dm me, and help me with whatever they’d like to help with- any ideas you may have; im willing to work with everyone! Just because the application has not been accepted yet doesn’t mean we cannot plan and prepare

+1 love legal rp and competition to go with it

+1 basil is the goat

Sure, this'll be super fun to go through. Sombras De Parana (Joseph Johansen): This was the first family I jumped into the game with. They were super friendly, funny and enjoyable to be around, so it felt like it was perfect for someone like me who really loved the social aspects of these kinds of games. When I was brought in, I was a hardcode grinder. The normal gameplay loop sort of spoke to me because it was something I could easily do while working from home. I'd consistently pay double my kickups, but on top of that, I loved to volunteer for security work. It gave me a chance to really put my character out there. Eventually, I was even being invited to the dinners themselves and got to enjoy myself with other families. This was a great time and it was the first time I got to put myself out there as what would be known as 'Certified Best Voice'. I have an announcer like voice and I use it a lot to my advantage, being able to capture attention with a voice that's unique, clear and fun to be around.. at least according to others. On this game, the voice does a lot to make the man, it seems. I worked with Sombras for a while, but eventually, I moved into my next horizon. C.C.N.G. / Colombo (Cazzo "Abominio" Testa): This was the second family I hopped to, and this time, I was equipped with experience in grinding. Getting my hands on the C racket meant I was an absolute menace and I'd still keep up with doing double kickups. However, at the same time, this is also where I got to really shine. I was consistently talking to people, getting my name out there and making a splash within the family and outside of it. I'd start getting recognized by my voice alone. However, it wasn't until I met up with Ruler that I realized I could be doing so much more. To that end, I began to expand my horizons. I'm a huge fan of the Hajime No Ippo manga. I've also been a fan of boxing for over seventeen years. So over the past few months of seeing boxing relegated to something familities did internally, I thought to myself: why not built out the system for an actual ranked circuit? Of course, it'd be a good bit of work and would require dedication, but I love giving that out in spades already to my family, right? Why not do it for myself? 14K Triad (Atlas "Genesis" Crowe): And then we land on my current character, the one I've dedicated the lion's share of my time to now. Working alongside Ruler, I've been making a name for myself in the city with a lot of different things. Spoke to Willy Wonka about building amazing creations for our business Wonkaland. But I do have to say my crowning achievement has been Wonkaland Fight Night. We're going to be holding the second one tonight (April 6th, 2024), but the first one was amazing. 17 consecutive exhibition matches of families and citizens alike just jumping in the ring for a good ol' fight. Something they could chill out with and feel there were no consequences over. It really made me feel like when it came to organization, I really could do something a bit different. The enjoyment people felt that night - it's something I wanna replicate. People having dumb fun, people coming onto the server and taking a break from the mafia grind to come and have some laughs with friends in a different way than normal. To facilitate that and be able to indulge in both sides of the coin. That's what I want to do, not just for the server, but honestly for it's people. I view the faction as a vehicle for great roleplay that I can share with everyone and give them a place to say 'Hey, if you want to really roleplay and have a hell of a time, I'll give you the place to truly get into character and indulge.' If you have any questions about what I do or just wanna talk to me, my DMs are always open or you could reply in here and I'll try to respond quickly. I super appreciate you saying it's a solid application! I'm a writer as well so I really enjoyed making the small snippet of background for the cult's lore and writing through all of our activities. Have a great day!

It can function as a gang. The cult dynamic is mainly there for flavor, a way to create interesting roleplay. We don't intend to functionally do business much different than other families on the outside, but we want to utilize the cult aspect of things to stoke in-family roleplay in unique ways that I believe a cult only could. For clarity, there's no intention to go out on the street and attempt to crucify people or judge them for not believing in what we do. Instead, we'd like to foster a more inclusive roleplay of sermons that border on the edge of cult-y, the creepy speeches that make you wonder how the man gets followers. Rituals for those who believe in what we do, to truly get them immersed in the roleplay. I heard about former cults that were very abrasive with how they did things and I'm not a very abrasive person. Rather, I'd like to create roleplay scenarios that people might not otherwise be exposed to. People reading scripture on the street (scripts given to new hires to earn money for spreading the word), public events like our Wonkaland Fight Nights where we attempt to spread our word through Southside's language of violence and ceremonies that aim to both include those outside of the faction in a taste of what they could have with us and celebrate and reward those who have tenure with us. I had a system in mind where I would compensate people in the form of 'Divine Deeds'. It was mostly comprising of stuff like the above where they would read scripture on the streets and gain money from us and assist in recruiting for their efforts (a special way of both recruiting and giving people something to pass by, similar to NPCs that would boost your immersion in other games), speaking to people and not even bothering to recruit them but rather make connections and boost their social confidence (we'd even provide conversation starters, topics to discuss, activities to do) and running the various events we have in store such as the boxing gym where our fighters can come to train or be recruited into the ranked circuit we have planned or the game shows we have dupes for thanks to Willy Wonka. I would like to say we'd function as a cult in name only. My plan is not to intrude on people's roleplay with horrible actions like mass sacrifice or witch hunts, but I would like to help make this server more immersive with something that could serve as background noise to them at worst (passing our people by) and something to indulge in that's a break from their normal mafia gameplay loop at best (being a roleplayer and 'drinking the Kool-Aid' so to speak). Forgive me for typing a lot, I just want this to work. If you have any other questions about what we can do to help adjust to Mafia's climate, please don't hesitate to let me know. Thank you for replying!
