Name of Faction: DeCavalcante Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 52 (currently 54 in the discord) Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Crime Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Italian-American Name of Character running the faction: Philip DeCavalcante Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): allholyheaven Your SteamID: STEAM_0:0:620513663 Your Server playtime: 3w 5d 20h 19m 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 DeCavalcante Family is a faction designed to offer completely serious, immersive, and character-driver roleplay, laid in stone by real world history, and the Italian-American Experience of the 1980s. While our hierarchy is based on La Cosa Nostra, this isn't just some 'Mafia' faction. We aim to correctly portray an authentic, tight-knit group of hard working Italian American's who decided to join this life out of need, not want. A real community with different sets of culture, values, and identity. who allegedly happen to be involved in organized crime. Our faction is built around a small family from New Jersey, not New York and especially not Sicily. We're not glorifying the 'Mafia' or the 'Old Country' or by using exaggerated tropes. We're directly roleplaying second- and third generation Italian-Americans, sons of construction workers, delimen, and union guys who grew up together, bonded primarily by neighborhood loyalty, and slowly becoming part of something larger then the race themselves. This is a family, where people go to church, eat dinner together on Sundays, and call each others mothers 'ma'. That sense of family and tradition of Italian-American's trying to become more 'American' through trial and error. We're devoutly committed to cultural and community rp, as I said earlier, not just criminal RP. One of our long-term goals is to involve the small businesses or organizations made by players in our roleplay, such as Construction companies that can shut down area's for construction through RP, painting companies, and the Italian American Civil Rights League, creating interactions with local leaders in New York and the regional government. This allows us to emphasize more on themes that are often forgotten about, such as ethnic identity, police harassment, and pride, while directly giving the faction more depth and legitimacy. We're not here to dominate South Side or start wars, directly or indirectly. At it's heart again, the DeCavalcante faction is about family, in every sense of that word. And we're ready to put in the time, discipline, and effort to make that something truly valuable for the server. - (Next question for easier reading) Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): Recruitment wise, we'd don't want to immediately make people an associate and have it be something that is earned over a small period of time. Being a hangaround for some time, doing small tasks like being a body guard for someone, driving affiliated members around, transporting items we need, and even buying things we need, before finally getting associated with our family. Structure wise, we completely adhere to the traditional mafia hierarchy, but we treat every rank with realistic responsibility and weight. Promotions are based solely on IC merit, devout loyalty, and character development. We're not nepotistic, giving out ranks to every single one of our friends. Everything is earned ICly, and absolutely nothing is rushed. We're committed to long-term characters, realistic progression, and in-depth politics. Our main goal, regardless of how much we're able to effect this, is to bring back serious RP. That means the basic's like /me commands, long form dialogue, and completely immersive interactions and scenarios that create tension, consequence, and atmosphere. We fully encourage our faction members and other people outside of the faction to portray believable characters, not invincible killers and street soldiers, but flawed, addicted, human individuals going through a challenging life. We stay in-character at all times and hold our members to strict high rp standards. Plenty of cultural RP, remember we're portraying Italian-American men, not criminals (allegedly). Sunday church sessions, weekend dinners, family parties, and more of these regular social events. Encouraging other factions to join us in local south side events.

Name of Character: Kane Maddox SteamID: 76561198032089467 Your Discord ID#: kraz_kane Date of PK: 07/13/2025 Reason for PK: Killed by cop. Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: How this whole thing went down it just feels like some NLR was broken. We killed all three guys, should've pked the one who didn't comply to the mugging. Shortly after there was noise in the bathroom, someone opened the window and came in, then gunfire and tazers went off. The house had the door kicked in and the officer (Garcia) shot me and killed me. The alley way next to the town house had shooting involved and then the officers kicked down the door. As soon as I see officer Garcia I was instantly gunned down. It felt a little fishy the way he snapped onto me. The person we were trying to mug and should've ended up dead, however there is a high chance the person who we mugged and killed called the cops on us using nlr information to fuck us over. More so, it's possible his two bodyguards broke nlr and tried to use meta information to bait the police into the situation. In a fashion that wasn't organic in nature. Officer Sebastian Garcia conducted himself unprofessionally in the admin sit showing there is a high potential bias against people in SOS. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/kGEaZz124JyzN60-R?invite=cr-MSxvRXMsMzQ0MzA1NDUw https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/kGEfF9Myffoa4PayR?invite=cr-MSxmQUYsMzk5NzY5NjE0

Your Character or Steam Name: delilah avicenna Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:784526431 Your Discord ID#: delilah.avicenna Reason for ban: i was told global rule 4, which i think is promoting Length of ban: permanent Reason for appeal- dispute Why should you be unbanned? i had left all diverge discords and after like two weeks or whatever, i made a discord faction server for civics and started asking people if they wanted to join. i was then told by dutch cat that i was banned due to promoting. this confused me bc its not promoting if i had already left the diverge discords on my own terms, well before i even made my own faction server for another mafia server that i ended up not even playing on that server. Additional Information (images, videos, etc): id say check logs, it will show that i was never banned from any diverge discords. i left on my own. this confirms that i was falsely banned as there was a misunderstanding somewhere or a confusion that caused me to still get banned considering i had already left all diverge discords before i ever asked anyone about joining a different server. the times and days will show the proof

My suggestion is simple. Add a take all button to shipments. Why shouldn't we be able to? Another option would be to make it like a crate so you can shift click the stuff out. Would still be better and feel better than spam clicking take. Also why is there a drop option? When have I ever wanted to drop items out of a shipment crate? Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

The application is well-thought and the content is impressive. I think this faction would add a fun environment and flavor to the existing Italian roleplay. It would be cool to see the DeCavalcante family on the server. +1

yeah this is pretty awesome +1

+1 Active, experienced, and knows how to run a faction. I’ve seen them lead before and they handle RP seriously. Would be a good addition.

+1 Would be cool to see them running around out there

+1 trying to grind bricks for the don more efficiently

don’t worry my special needs friend, i’ve just banned him from diverge networks.

Bro is gonna shoot up diverge like it’s a school PaRkOur

So true. Keep yourself safe buddy

no, when did anyone ask?

WELLLL WELLLLLL WELLLLLLLLLLLL WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE

taking damage from other players will restrict you from unequipping the gun or clothing items, stashes are a little more restrictive is all. not voting yes or no to the suggestion, just information on the clip cause you run it into a wall inflicting yourself with damage

One of the main reasons you got banned, yet in one of your only chances of being unbanned, you directly admit to continuing what got you in this place.... I'm not staff anymore, but I do remember investigating your mugging chars, they weren't mugging chars, because you mugged on every single char, and constantly item transferred. While it wasn't an item transfer 1:1 as the rules define, you abused your characters and consistently rewarded your other characters with your mugs. This completely takes out the risk factor of losing your character, hence you're giving yourself just the reward part left. All this to say, in your appeal, you directly say you'll continue doing what you were banned for. I'm not staff nor does this message even mean anything, but I do genuinely do not believe you fit anywhere into the server and cannot find your ground.

genesis and icefuse

first ur looking for women, now ur looking for gay men? did you come out of the closet or something in the middle of the two posts?

my favorite is @yort but only when he wears the striped thigh highs

You wrote my name, but I didn't blacklist your flags, as per usual you were cop baiting for hours on end, you finally get caught by the cops then you push my cop car, exploding it, yours gets unflipped and you get away once again, just to rinse and repeat cop bait. It's not been remotely long enough for you to get your flags back in my opinion, not to mention you still have 17 bans and 21 notes. (No bans since December, notes I can't check), but still. Keep up the good work and you'll get there. PET Blacklist Blacklisted by: STEAM_0:1:45640448 Reason: prop abuse

you're full of yourself lmfao, you literally know nothing. if you actually played the server or knew the community, you'd also know i dont play the server, the faction i run is fully automated other than once every 2 weeks i need to get on to pay taxes (oh, btw since you're new, theres taxes for factions dipshit) get a bigger grasp on what is what and then come back and re-think your dogshit ideas. you're nobody trying to act like you're a big hotshot who knows every little aspect of the server, but literally in your own words, you don't know what detectives or operatives do , you have multiple lives for a reason, go join the pd and put a stop to crime like you said. (mafia crime based server by the way) oh also just to shit on you more, i do touch grass, im in college you really think i spend my days sitting on gmod grinding bricks for the don? ayt u do u pimp but don't hate on me

offer document rp for a cut in taxes, im sure people will outsource tax-men to deal with all of it

no.... garry's mod is very old and even with the best code ever, the server will already be under a massive amount of stress. (from a developer) yes code can be GOOD, but remotely having a server that's interesting needs to take a performance hit once in a while. or you can have zero features with zero lag.... (also im pretty sure diverge runs one of the best possible purchasable VPS machines lol) garrysmod servers are also limited to a certain amount of CPU Cores, once again, its an old game. at most servers can be hyper threaded if i remember but at that point its time to look at the server code and not the hardware

hours of cooldowns for individual cooldowns per car per player lol if car1 owned by player1 gets scraped then they cannot scrap car2 owned by player1 (obv a cooldown between different players cars too) but they can scrap car1 by player2 an achievable xp thing gotta be added other than strength please

Not the banning admin, or anyone of importance, but heres my opinion and some numbers. You had set up for a shoot out to occur, it is clear as day in the first clip, otherwise, why would all those people be specifically on that one roof that had a perfect view of the business you were intentionally harassing. I don't know who anyone is on this server, nor do I even know who you are as a character name level. Since joining in september 2022, to march 2025, you've had 0.37 bans per month. (Sounds like a good number right? kind of...) Since your first ban in November 2023, to march 2025, you've had 0.69 bans per month. (Almost doubling, the time between first join and first ban) You have 22 notes and 11 bans (excluding the most recent permaban) with 54.45 DAYS banned and only 38 days, 3 hours playtime. From your "total time experienced" (bans + playtime), you have spent 58.84% of your time banned. Banned time to playtime ratio is at a high x1.43. With your notes and bans being considered now, you were punished nearly 2.06 times per month for every month since your first ban. That is very slightly more than once every 2 weeks you either got a ban or a note, since sept 2023.... that is sad. TLDR: Extensive notes and bans will always lead to a permanent ban, now if its actually permanent, that's for others to decide, there is no bias here, if I was still staff I would've done the exact same thing regardless of who you are, or who you think you are to be able to continue to break the rules without any actual punishment. You need a break from the server to realize what you actually want to do on here, other than break rules consistently.

system worked exactly as intended and the ban was warranted. if you ask for a dollar, and someone gives you a dollar, your request was fulfilled. the system was coded to stop someone who is currently banned, from joining on another account, using the same ip address. without breaking garry's mod TOS by writing a 'hwid' and not easily exploitable, this is the simplest way. garry's mod function GetIPAddress is the most identifiable thing that they give developers, unless hey, give us your full legal name, address, hwid, and download this funny exe every time you join the server for server 'security'. doesn't that sound a little crazy? sorry ill stop causing beef, but you are negligent, be happy you're getting unbanned

Younger brother? Your account https://steamcommunity.com/id/Yatonokami/ (STEAM_0:0:168293099) was created 07 Apr 2016 yet 'your younger brother's' account, https://steamcommunity.com/id/ttdfghfgfgfgfgfvfgfvgfgfgfgf/ (STEAM_0:1:82277669) was created 30 Jan 2014. ay but dont worry, im not staff anymore, just be honest next time and it'll get accepted much easier!

mf it gives you notifications every like 15 minutes saying its about to restart, and incrementally makes more when its closer and closer to it im pretty sure....

cars requiring players to function probably is gonna be a no-go and i can guarantee that. the problem is that there is no certainty that players will be on to fill up your pumps, and even at that, if it was an npc doing it for you, its just more steps to driving a car.

let me steal peoples identities and give a cop the wrong drivers license

PET flag taking admin here, I'll start off by saying, you have two POs. Your flags have been revoked before if I remember correctly. From this situation, you were borderline RDM baiting at the Lucchese property on the corner, with all of their cars parked infront I remember you taking out a prop, and just flinging them all, killing one of the guys and knocking out the others.

Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

A two day ban for mass VDM is lucky. Falcon was very nice on this one, I checked your notes, you received one a couple hours prior to your ban, it may of not been a sit, or it might've been, but its a note to stick with you to say what the person of interest might or might not do, it means at some point someone told you to cut it out, yet you continued to do it and got hit with the ban. Be happy with only the two days. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this ban to be reasonable and/or justified. Ensure you have read our Server Rules.

The reason this appeal took so long is because when metagame is an excuse to something, its looked into deeply. The outcome of that, is that we found no evidence of metagaming, infact, we actually saw more proof to justify no metagame happening, than proof that they were metagaming. There was a 911 call, false or not, thats an in character issue. The person also who made the call, had no mutual factions with the person being kidnapped, and the call was made right infront of your door. Now for the cops raiding the place, they saw the 911 call and were already in the area, hence why they came in fast and hard. You should not of shot at the cops if you wanted a chance to not be pked on the spot. With all of that information, the only foul play here that I could find is the basis for the 911 call. The raid by NYPD was also an IC issue, because 911 calls are not probably cause to kick a door down. The tying sound is also very loud, and very easily can be heard through the walls. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

I think you got the wrong discord ID man! You've made multiple tickets under the account murshadsmith. Oh, you also didn't talk about this in your appeal at all. Also forgot to mention, your reason to unban is 100% AI. You're not even remotely serious,

You’re a joke, is what I was getting at. A laughing stock that people enjoy for a whopping 5 minutes everytime you come back, you provide nothing for the server.

Banning admin here, 15 notes and 13 bans over 2 years. 3 Permanent bans, need I say more? Actually I will. You and your friend both admit to it. When I first tp your friend to the sit, he calls you your friend. You're wearing the same exact outfit. You then get tped to the sit saying you've never seen this man in your life. 'Going to the PD to test our guns'. Yea.... Alright.... Are you in the NYPD faction? No, so you're just cop baiting then, because when you got banned, you were on 'Mark Scheck'. Weird how he doesn't have a gun license, but you're a lawyer, and love to roleplay legal rp so much. Cool, so thats the second lie detected. You are a plague that simply has no cure, you cause nothing but pain for everything around you. You get other people implicated without them even knowing about it, not only did you get re-perma banned, but your friend caught a week ban. While Izumi, also caught a 3 day ban for supplying this mass rdm. Oh also, forgot to mention, in the sit you said and I quote word for word 'I never shot anyone'. Then we pull up the logs, and.... you did.... Ontop of that, literally just having your friend do the RDMing for you, doesn't mean you get off scott free. I really would say the classic line of 'you know better', but you genuinely do not and never will, you cannot play by the rules, nor can you follow simple instructions to not crash-out at every second you have. You got un-permad on the 14th. You did not make it more than two weeks without breaking a rule or mass rdming. Congratulations? I don't even know what your goal is at this point. As much I'd love to say I dislike you for being you Hamburgler, its not even about you anymore, its about the fact that you never learn and I hold nothing against you, but you simply are not fit to play the server whatsoever. Hate me if you must, but you brought this upon yourself.

While yes, as per rules this is not a raid. But you did still force yourself into the place. The killer had given you an option to leave, with his gun pulled prior to yours being pulled, then you pull yours out and instantly start shooting. PKing rules also state You were given a chance to leave the scene after the Ranger was pulled, yet you decided to pull out a gun and try to fight it out. The person killing you is not going to be PKed because he was defending himself, in his own property, and had his gun pulled first, thus nullifying any fearrp related PKs. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/jlrGpG9Jux35eFwh2/36HiXNKja4Uf?invite=cr-MSxQSGgsNTEyMjg3MSw Your appeal has been reviewed and denied.

Not the banning admin here, but heres some numbers and cool information. First join, September 17th, 2023 Last Join: December 4th, 2024 Play time: 22 days, 16 hours, 11 minutes, 14 seconds Total Bans: 6 Total Notes: 6 Ban time: 20 days Ban time as % of Playtime: 88.20% 6 Bans, 6 notes, 14 months, on average 0.75 punishments per month. Last year you were banned exactly on the 23rd of December. You were then unbanned on the 25th of December with the reason 'christ forgives you'. What makes this year any different? I have a sneaking suspicion that you believe our leniency on Christmas will get you another 'get out of jail free' card.

Your ban appeal has been reviewed and accepted. The ban will be reduced to 1 week.

queue system would require the 128 limit to go down to constantly have 5 open, but waitlisted slots. not worth at all. ontop of that, deciding who would have priority is just stupid, would it be superadmins because they need to staff? would it be donators because they donated? would it be the standard roleplayer? would it be faction leaders? exactly. useless.

With your extensive history of playing the server, notes, bans, etc yadada. You should know better, and continue to strive to NOT break rules intentionally. The clips provided while SOME were muted. But we have full context clips with audio. Reporter is standing beside the taxi, not even remotely involved and you shoot him then blame it on something that never happened.... Before killing someone, you should learn the context or ask SHOULD I shoot this person or not. You're already on a very thin rope, chances are if you continue to fuck up, it will be a permanent ban soon. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this ban to be reasonable and/or justified. Ensure you have read our Server Rules.

While yes, you were mainly in the wrong, you have such a clean record and the whole Mass VDM was not intentional nor was it targeting a group or people etc... You were being a little silly and no one stopped you until then. There were mainly two clips provided, in which wasn't proving intentional ruining of others roleplay experiences. Wrong place, wrong time, and you got a little out of hand is all. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and accepted. The ban will be reduced to 1 day.

You were pked by your faction for breaking their rules, ontop of that bringing heat to the faction. That is all I can tell you and I can guarantee you that no rules were broken in this dons order pk. As bullets said, when joining a faction you accept these risks of having to follow a new set of rules inside of that family. Not just server rules, but roleplay rules implemented by your faction to deter people from doing stuff they shouldn't or put the family at risk. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

Super evil admin guy here, I logged onto the server to see multiple tickets asking if they could assassinate you. In which I said no, as it shouldn't be happening in the first place. You were named "Ronald Trump", wearing a MAGA hat, with a massive dupe completely blocking the meat market. (You are in a civilian faction). You have multiple notes and PET blacklist related incidents. This alone would get your PET flags revoked, and most likely permanently as you should know better being such an old player. I, as the staff member had the option of not only removing your PET flags, but also banning you. I felt nice, and instead I shot you, deleted the props, and gave you a name change prompt. So that it would be continued in RP that you had 'died'. Political leader names are not accepted in the timeframe or at all on the server. Hence why you don't see Joe Biden running around on the streets, nor do you see Barak Obama running for governor. When I joined, I had seen there were a few tickets asking to assassinate you, in which I said no to. Obviously duhh... With the name Ronald Trump, you were rdmed 4 times (5 including mine as staff intervention/gm intervention) While yes, my course of action was not necessary to shoot you, I felt it needed to stop one way or another. Just tping you away in the middle of a rally with a bunch of people is not appropriate, but an assassination on a fake political figure that shouldn't exist in the first place was in my eyes, the right thing to do. Now for every other punishment I gave you (none), I was being extremely nice considering no ban, no pet flags removed, no notes added, nor no pks given.
