The escalation rules should be viewed as a shell and starting point, not a rigid checklist. UA looks at the full situation, all factions involved, and all relevant factors before making a determination, including faction size, recent hires, main character status, alt characters, and whether anyone is trying to gain an unfair advantage. The purpose of a lockdown / hire block is to prevent war jumping, temporary recruiting, and alt abuse. It also makes escalation uncomfortable for everyone involved, which should push factions toward a quicker resolution instead of letting the conflict drag out. If someone was actively maining a faction but never formally set it as their main, that is ultimately on the player and their faction leadership. If they were involved enough to be impacted by the escalation, they should have seen it coming and made sure their main was properly set. Leadership also has a responsibility to warn members before things reach that point. A lock can be adjusted or removed if UA believes the specific situation calls for it, but it should not be assumed. Unless UA clearly states otherwise, factions should treat the lockdown and main character requirements as active. In your case, you were scared because you thought Popov was going to PK you, so you left the faction to do hits for Supreme in another faction. Once you realized there was no orders you left the other faction and now are stuck as a civ. watching from the outside. If you want numbers.....at the start of the escalation Supreme had 140 alts(More than any other crim. faction) to Popov 30 alts, for mains there were 25 for Supreme and 13 for Popov...... this was taken into account during the main lock decision.

-1 I rarely speak out this strongly against giving someone another chance, but in this case, I feel it's necessary. Attached I've sent the recent DMs he sent me during the time to which I banned him. Besides that I'd like to say this. While he wasn't the worst staff member we've had, the team is currently running smoothly without him. We shouldn't lower our standards just to add more bodies. This is the Diverge of today, not a few years ago. He was recently banned and continues to disagree with the reasoning behind it. In his forum post, he simply dismissed it as "retarded." He lashes out angrily at anyone who personally disagrees with him. This level of reactivity is unprofessional for staff. Even in his likely response to post, he's likely to push back without any apology or politeness to me whom has been nothing but professional towards him throughout his ban that I administrated in good faith. That should say enough alone. As a staff member who's been here for nearly a year, I have zero notes on my account. He has over 30! A consistent pattern of bans and notes shows a lack of accountability or issues with emotional regulation which are essential for any staff member to have and maintain during their duties.

I guess you really do live up to your name.

so can i get unbanned now

what the fuck

irrelevant

Reminder that String made this staff app literally less than 12 hours after crashing out at AceAdmiral, Boosted, and me in general.

Andy will win this conflict by himself.

This just seems like everybody who doesn't like him -1ing, yet nobody has actual proof he cheated this time around, so perhaps we should wait before condemning the man.

Hi Tommy im the one who wrote the orders as it was brought to my attention that you as a felon had been arming whiteshirts who didn't have the proper licensing. Along with being arrested in your company suit multiple times after being told not to draw attention to yourself when wearing the company suit. When you joined the faction you accepted the risk of potentially being pked for violating Faction rules. The main reason you were deemed a liability was your willingness to arm whiteshirts who had been turned away for not having a gun license. When it comes to the Factions gun racket any potential liability gets dealt with asap as its the biggest legal source of income for the faction and anyone getting caught selling our firearms illegally can put the store at risk of being fined heavily or shutdown. Hope this clears things up for you and best of luck on your future endeavors.

Italian this, Italian that. WE NEED SOME MORE NON ITALLIAN FACTIONS Major +1 from me!

Thanks for the support

nice format usage bro

+1 THIS GUY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT GUY FOR THE COMMUNITY UNBAN HIM HE DIDNT DESERVE FUCKING PERMA BAN

+1

This nigga is a valid guy. +1

No hate here, just the facts and you know this better than I do

-1

Why not? +1

cuz he is gay

+1 Yeah, he might be messed up but it looks like he actually learned from it and regrets it. i think he deserves another shot. most of the people who get perma ban dont even bother coming back, but the fact he is opening tickets and trying this hard shows he gets what he did wrong and probably won’t do it again. I dont know him at all, but I got banned for the same mistake before, so I’d say give him another chance to prove himself.

logic just imagine about arresting arab people in your cop char..

-1 makes no sense

Its not public but U96 – Club Bizarre is a masterpiece. I paid 75k for it back then, and it was worth every penny deadass i definitely recommend it.

that shi aint happening gng

I realized something, when youre wearing a mask, everyone in the same family can still see your face model in TAB, even if youve never shared your name (F3) with them. The fact that people who don’t even have your F3 can see your player model just because youre wearing a mask… doesnt make any sense in my opinion I dont have this guys name at all, and Im pretty sure he doesnt even know who the fuck I am lol I think it needs to be fixed.

boomroasted otp

I get what you saying, but what i dontt understand is this after i switched everything about myself, how did they even figure out i was the one who mugged them? it had been hours since the situation, and I was in a completely different fit with a whole different playermodel. On top of that, i never used voice chat at all so taking all that into account, i really dont get how they managed to identify me IC EDIT: You still had the grey/white hair male09 model, with a gas mask on and a black bandanna on. After this you were set PK active to Popov This exactly what I’m tryna get at when they saw me i had my mugging fit on just like you said, mask on and all. After that I switched up everything, like everything, stayed low, and then 3 hours later I get identified and PK’d while I’m basically a whole different person? The reason i opened a ticket and asked Shauningt about it was to figure out if there was still any way for them to identify or hunt me. Based on the response I got, that’s apparently not even possible Also I wanna add this too, we killed the guy like 10–15 minutes before the incident, everything was within the rules, but he still got it comp'd and breaks the NLR rules because he was afk??? he literally came out of admin sit AND with the same weapon he got comp’d for, broke the NLR rules and came back to PK me??

this thread is the most jewish shit i have ever read in my entire life lol

I know Yoon since day one i joined the server. Some people fuck with him, some dont but RP wise he is solid and I think he can handle this role I really like the family and the ideas, but the application could’ve been a bit better Long story short, +1

Hella +1, this would be great RP. Also, the NYPD breathalyzer might actually be more useful now with this update, who knows?

+1 Looks like a solid application give him a chance!

L Tony soprano for ddos threat -1

Brother didn’t leave any comments to make, I highly agree with everything there. Good luck on your next application, but this one is a -1 from me.

lol

Holy crap +1 release the horde bro

-1 fuck da cops

nigga u aint fixed shit. This is a ban appeal section, u have to go post this shit to character appeals section

polar pk'ed his ass bruh thats why

-1 / +1 Great application tho

As someone who been through some similar shit before, i feel like you deserve another chance. Especially cuz enough time passed and i think you actually learned from it and became more self aware. +1

fw the idea +1

holy p2w

Everyone can make mistakes, let him prove himself with a second chance. I wish you good luck with your appeal. +1 from me!

Bro literally owned up to a mistake and explained the whole situation from his side, maybe he made a mistake maybe he didnt, You sittin here tryna give somebody grammar lessons talkin bout “consider to reverse” and “player you ban” when you cant even write that shit right yourself

not a bad idea +1

string is a good guy.

Thanks man my english ain’t great but that was not my point at all. He is new and probably just trying his best, no need to come at him that hard especially “as a ex staff member” in my opinion that’s all i gotta say. i don’t even really know what went down or who that guy is at all, much love & respect bro
