Hello, After seeing what the banning admin has said, after speaking to him, and viewing the clip myself, it's blatantly clear that you are apologetic for doing what you had done. While this whole ordeal may have been unintentional on your part there were ways you could have easily avoided this. I hope you recognize those things so this can avoided in the future. Overall all things considered I see no reason why you should not be granted some leniency. Have a good day.

Hi, banning admin here! As explained to you when you DM’d me, the issue was not you getting him initially, it was you continuing to turn to run him over enough to get stuck on him and killing him. This situation with your already very recent history of the same offense, I had originally opted to issue the one day ban for you take a change to better understand the rules on our server. However, after speaking with you in DMs, I can see you are genuinely apologetic and wish to continue to improve your behavior and enjoy your time RPing in our city. With that being said I will recommend the ban be lifted.

Your Character or Steam Name: Hans Hunnebun | Hans "Big Steppa" Martinez | Shalisa Spintavion | can't remember the rest if any Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:628592126 Your Discord ID#: Crispytacos#0439 Reason for ban: Mugging char: Unauthorized pd raid | Mugging Char | Extensive POs Length of ban: Forever Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): A little bit of both Why should you be unbanned? First of all, I would like to say I had no idea that shooting someone inside of the PD before they were put in cells was "raiding the pd". To my knowledge, only lockpicking or trying to break someone out of a cell would be considered that. After I have been banned many times and knew I was on the verge of a permanent ban, I was trying to keep myself out of trouble. Not thinking I was breaking the rules, I tried to help the guy that was cuffed in the lobby, when you first get into PD. At no point was I trying to cause any trouble other than just simply trying to rp and not break any more rules. I would also like to say that I never mugged anyone on that character I was on at the time and have no idea why Monaclu just added that on to be extra. The only person I had even been apart of tying up was "TANNER" with his consent. I would also like to point out I took nothing from him and if you check my logs it's pretty obvious that I didn't mug anybody. Im not stupid enough to keep mugging on alt chars after coming right off of a ban for it. As for the pd raid part, I had never done it before and had absolutely no idea that I was breaking the rules. I would just like to say if I do get a chance back on this server I will never get banned again and will do a thorough look at all of the rules again and will only strictly rp with my peers. I will also never mug on alt chars again and will be a good diverge player and only RP. I have played this server for so long that I have realized I dont know what I will do without it. I also have never heard of that being a pd raid and a lot of people were just as suprised as I was. . #didnt mug on an alt PLEASE PENDRED/CANADIAN Additional Information (images, videos, etc) I cannot afford an unban man please, I beg https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iGfAaSPIPZ-nrZwtw/d1337fVt0Sue?invite=cr-MSxtOEIsMTk3ODk5MjU1LA

I will never recover from this.

Mingiest faction ive ever seen. This is worse than the Flamingo Crime Family. They go around spamming textscreens saying some dumb shit like "Bushwick crew" or "Calabria Crew" On top. Even if this faction did get accepted, it wont ever go anywhere. Legacy Enterprise V2. Would genuinely just be another faction to war, and buy drugs from, i have no doubt they will contribute absolutely nothing to the server. -1

Joining for 5 seconds and running into PD being hidden in a room to fish rumour and then abusing it and buying the car isnt detective work. Your no Bman he did real detective work

+1, its a faction car for a reason, losing 1k isnt a big deal, easiest fix will be literally the garage spawner check if the player is STILL that faction

(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.

(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.

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.

(Reference your unique RP from the question above): We wish to be sort of in the same area as a typical Crime Family with Italian RP, but with the introduction of new elements. The crew does not tolerate their members to commit spontaneous and impulsive muggings, robbery, violent altercation or disrespect, however, the HC will have all their focus on managing to gather all members at once, to do some sort of action/rp/event. It is HIGHLY important for us to do something exciting. Previous experiences from other factions have been mostly satisfactory, however we wish to eliminate as many boring aspects as possible, of course without removing absolutely necessary things no matter how repetitive they are. Events will be our bread and butter, and it won't necessarily be a peaceful flea market, but things such as: One day, organized stealing a RIVAL faction's cars as bountys, getting the muscle of the crew to trash a certain area for RP reasons, host a professionally organized talent show, having a themed restaurant (Sea Restaurant), buying all lower members drugs for huge crew deals, etc. It is our goal to be noticeable on the server, people see our RP, they know our RP, and they love it. (Also potential to work with News teams OOC to make banger stories with the help of Singleplayer artwork like in the Google Doc for the organization backstory, and also looking forward to making videos about the Server/City life and events) The organization structure is also very different from a Crime Family, and does not play in the same way at all. A hierarchy structure is in the pager. We'd be very open to expand our RP to various things, in the hopes that it gives us the ability to give our members an event RP type of experience that makes things exciting, and a player wanting to come back for more, and to build ambition into people.

Name of Faction: Sindicat din Umbra Number of Members : 12 Type Of Faction: Syndicate Ethnic Background : Romanian Name of Character running the faction: Dr. David James Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210):theoneswholives Your SteamID:76561199679320466 Your Server playtime: 2w 6d 5h 5m 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 Roleplay Example: https://youtu.be/Si65coJKZMI?si=goWi2w6pVizCCeu- Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): Founding Members David James - A man who’s complete backstory isn’t entirely known.. Some say he was a war hero in an unnamed war, others claim he was an orphan who pickpocketed tourists to get by. Shortly after immigrating to the states, he changed his name to a more American sounding one to fit in. His true name is only known by Constantin and Alexandru, but their lips are sealed. Constantin Dimitrescu - A Romanian immigrant who landed in New York with Alexandru and David. His degree in accounting makes him the perfect candidate for the position of Master of Finance in their new company. Muhammad Bali - An ex-mobster retiring from the Polish mafia, looking for new business opportunities with the riches he gained from prior enterprise. His past connections provide this group with a plentiful supply of mercenaries and drug suppliers. Alexandru Boswell - An all around “Tough guy”, who doesn’t take shit from anyone. His skills in intimidation keep everyone in line and working towards their common goal of profit. Jani Ramone - An American man who was saved by David and Constantin from a human trafficking operation run by the Italians. Owing his life to his newfound friends, he’s fiercely loyal to their cause. Lore The Beginning: In 1984, David, Constantin and Alexandru immigrated to New York with the goal of sending money back to their impoverished hometown and families. With their new American citizenship in hand, the three set out to start a restaurant. “A Taste of Transylvania” was opened, serving Southside as one of the few high class accommodations available to residents. Business was slow- extremely slow. Most of their nights were spent alone either drinking plenty of Schnapps or chowing down on fine Transylvanian cuisine. A Change in Direction: Their restaurant wasn’t turning a profit, their families were starving, and there was no clear way to continue in view. With no other way to turn, the three took to lives of crime in order to make enough money for their family’s survival. While their restaurant wasn’t very successful, it still proved to be a valuable networking opportunity- Muhammad Bali was a frequent customer. Muhammad Joins the Team - A fast solution to their finance problems was in front of the Romanians. Muhammad was able to provide suppliers for firearms, Cocaine, and other drugs which were processed and sold for a healthy profit. After four long years of living in squalor and shame, the taste of profit was addictive. They closed the restaurant, and their criminal enterprise grew at a rapid pace with new members appearing seemingly out of thin air. Ghetto Rescue (this is actually how we met) - On a hot August afternoon in Southside, Constantin was approached by two Italian men. They captured him, blindfolded him, and trapped him in a grimy room in the Ghetto. The room had another prisoner- Jani Ramone. Scared and confused about what was happening, the two didn’t know whether they would make it out of this one alive. Suddenly, the door swung open and three men filed in. The captives couldn’t see who they were, on account of them being blindfolded. They conversed about the sale of both captives, first the Italians spoke, and then… David?! By some stroke of luck, David saw what was happening and decided to play it cool. He bought their freedom, and all of them made it out alive. What happened to the traffickers? They don’t know. What they do know is that David saved their asses, and for this he was chosen unanimously as the leader of their new crime organization. A New Opportunity - With the restaurant closed, the team had to find a new front for their operation. Considering the resources at their disposal, it was decided that a “security” agency would be the new legal enterprise. Protecting the assets of other companies would be the primary goal of their group, though other endeavors such as bounties, escorts, and surveillance would also be part of their day to day duties. “Ardelian Holdings, Limited” was formed as the legal entity, with its name linking the men to their Romanian heritage. An Ardelean is simply someone from the Transylvania region of Romania. The Present - Our five men, and a handful of underlings, are ready to take on (Or cooperate with) the other families who preside over Southside. It was difficult and extremely dangerous work, but their teamwork has allowed the five to compile the necessary resources to expand their operation. All that’s left to do is begin making moves. Hierarchy David James, Conducătorul (Leader)- The boss of the operation. His say is final, and he runs the business with an iron fist. Constantin Dimitrescu, Maestrul Finanțelor (Master of Finance) - The “CFO” of the business. Not a single dime slips through the cracks on his watch. Alexandru Boswel, Maestrul Operațiunilor (Master of Operations) - A man with no tolerance for idiots. Under his leadership, the operation runs like a well oiled machine. Muhammad Bali, Maestrul Securitate (Master of Security) - Experienced, competent and talented, securing the operation is a breeze for Mr. Bali. Jani Ramone, Supraveghetor (Overseer) - The manager of day to day operations among non-executive employees. Aesthetics Clothing - The syndicate traverses the shadows of Southside typically in long overcoats and some sort of red colored article of clothing. Their coats and overall look give an air of secrecy to all of their actions. They look like the kind of men you wish you hadn’t noticed. Vehicles - Dark black sedans prove more than adequate for the syndicate’s purposes. You may spot one of their cars in an alley, or parked behind some bushes. Look again and there is a fair chance the car will be gone. Architecture - A dark, traditional gothic theme is put to use wherever possible in the Syndicate’s operations. Deep paint colors, tapestries, and complex wood ornamentation from their homeland adorn the spaces they occupy. OOC We’re a group of friends, of varying levels of experience, who just want to have fun and have some decent RP with everyone! The faction side of gameplay has been very appealing to us for a long time, so this is our entrance to organized gameplay. We’re easy to deal with, generally chill, and not afraid to accept the consequence/risk of our actions.

Hello, I'm the admin that did the pk The reason you were pk'd is because you tried to tie someone up at an atm. This is considered an attempted mugging. When you tried to do this you were killed by the person and subsequently pk'd. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/801274454436610058/1289882798781632532/pked8.mp4?ex=66fa7078&is=66f91ef8&hm=a4cac2a959f9cad288ad10e43ac78b9ef6be6c8ea46fe6bf87dfa5c4f9d20761& This is the clip of the incident.

Name of Faction: The Nightshade Crew Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 7-15 Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Italian-Black Name of Character running the faction: 5 Possibly more in the future Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): Trojanman14 Your SteamID: https://steamcommunity.com/id/LookHarderRetard/ Your Server playtime: 5 Hours, but we are all very well immersed into RP Servers 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): 1. High-Stakes Glamour and Danger: Sophisticated Transactions: Players can expect to engage in roleplay that combines the opulence of high society with the underworld's danger. Whether attending a lavish gala at The Nightshade Club or negotiating multi-million-dollar arms deals, interactions will be rich in intrigue and strategy. Players will navigate both public appearances and clandestine meetings, blending the glamour of the 1980s nightlife with the grim realities of criminal enterprise. 2. Intricate Undercover Operations: Dual Lives: Members of The Nightshade Crew might lead double lives, posing as legitimate businesspeople or high-profile entertainers while secretly managing the illegal firearms trade. Roleplay scenarios could include undercover missions, espionage, and subterfuge, providing a layered experience where characters must constantly balance their public personas with their criminal activities. 3. Dynamic Power Struggles: Internal Drama: Expect intense roleplay scenarios involving power struggles and loyalty tests within the Crew. Internal conflicts, rivalries, and betrayals will create a volatile environment where alliances are fluid, and trust is a scarce commodity. This adds depth to interactions, as players navigate shifting loyalties and personal ambitions. 4. Complex Dealings and Negotiations: High-Stakes Deals: Roleplaying negotiations for high-value firearms or forging new criminal alliances will involve strategic thinking and careful negotiation. Players will engage in detailed discussions, employ coded language, and manage the risks of leaking sensitive information. Scenarios may include securing contracts with international buyers or managing fallout from failed transactions. 5. Diverse Clientele and Rivals: Varied Interactions: The Crew's wide range of clients—from local criminals to corrupt officials and international arms dealers—means players will encounter a diverse array of characters and scenarios. Interactions with these clients can lead to alliances or conflicts, creating a dynamic roleplaying environment where players must navigate complex relationships and rivalries. 6. Secretive and Suspenseful Scenarios: Mystery and Deception: Roleplay will often involve secrecy and suspense, with hidden agendas and covert operations playing a central role. Characters may undertake covert missions to gather intelligence, sabotage rivals, or protect their operations from law enforcement. This adds an element of suspense and strategy, making each interaction layered with potential consequences. 7.

Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): In the heart of a gritty metropolis, where neon lights flicker against the backdrop of dark alleys, "The Nightshade Crew" rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most feared and respected crime families of the 1980s. Their story begins in the late 1970s, when Vincent “Viper” Moretti, a cunning and ambitious figure, saw an opportunity in the city's underbelly. Originally from a small-time crew involved in petty crimes, Vincent recognized that true power lay in controlling the flow of illicit goods and influencing key players. Vincent’s vision materialized with the establishment of "The Nightshade Club," a luxurious nightclub that quickly became the city’s most exclusive and enigmatic venue. On the surface, it was a haven for the city’s elite, featuring live music, exquisite dining, and an ambiance that hinted at sophistication. However, beneath the glamorous facade, the club served as a front for the Crew’s more sinister operations. The true revenue for "The Nightshade Crew" came from a clandestine gun ring operating in the club’s hidden basement. The Crew specialized in trafficking illegal firearms—handguns, assault rifles, and high-caliber weapons—catering to a diverse clientele ranging from local criminals to international buyers. They prided themselves on discretion, with each transaction conducted under a veil of secrecy. The Crew’s rise to prominence was marked by ruthless efficiency and strategic alliances. Vincent Moretti forged connections with corrupt officials and influential figures, ensuring that their operations faced minimal interference. The club’s elite patrons were often unaware of the more dangerous dealings that transpired behind closed doors. As the 1980s progressed, "The Nightshade Crew" expanded its influence beyond the city’s borders. They established a network of reliable contacts and allies, consolidating their position in the criminal underworld. Their reputation for high-quality firearms and their ability to handle sensitive transactions without leaving a trace made them a preferred choice among those who operated in the shadows. Despite their success, the Crew faced constant challenges. Rivals coveted their lucrative territory, law enforcement agencies sought to uncover their operations, and internal power struggles threatened to destabilize their carefully maintained empire. Yet, under Vincent’s unyielding leadership, "The Nightshade Crew" managed to navigate these dangers, adapting and evolving as the criminal landscape shifted around them. "The Nightshade Crew" became synonymous with both elegance and menace, a symbol of the duality of power and deception. Their story is one of ambition and survival, a testament to the lengths one can go to dominate the shadows and command respect in a world where trust is a rare commodity.
