Hi banning admin here. I was asked to weigh in on, and then enact your ban during a conversation with at least 6 other staff members, including staff higher ranking than myself. Looking through your logs, it is blatantly apparent to me, as well as the other staff, that you don't intend to roleplay. In your previous appeal, you said: "If I get unbanned, I plan to roleplay and add to the servers experience instead of take away from it. If I come back to the server I won't be mugging at all, shouting at people for no reason, or breaking any rules." So far you have spent most of your time mugging, outside of that AFK'ing at your property, and making negative and cringeworthy Underground Advertisement endlessly. It's worth noting that hiring a few people and ordering oil is not what constitutes roleplay. Your provided evidence of roleplay is also pretty sub-par. You have been known to mug various people who blatantly have nothing of value on their person, which to my eye is likely PK hunting. You make the core of your character, down to his nickname, about mugging. You post a large number of rumours per session gloating about your muggings, and announcing plans for your next muggings. All of this adds up, as well as your previous bans and reputation - to show that you are just a mugging character, who can provide little to no valuable roleplay to the server. The testimony of a small handful of Takahashi players that you "have been helpful in the 1 week you were there" is not doing much to disprove that, either. PK hunting, most failmugs (which you have done at least one) and NITRP are all bannable offenses. Referencing Canadian's judgement on your perma ban appeal: "If you are banned again it will be extended to permanent once more." Thus I extended your ban to permanent. TL;DR - I was asked to ban you if I believed your actions constituted a ban, I did, as did numerous other staff. You had a 1 strike, you're out policy laid out to you when you were unperma'd. Good luck on the appeal.

“but I simply utilize it as a way to roleplay and make money” >mugs someone wearing 0 custom clothing

As many of you may already be aware, there has been a noticeable influx of “hitman” characters among various factions on the server. I would like to suggest that players should only be allowed to PK someone within a faction if the character performing the PK is set as their Main Character. The intention behind this proposal is to discourage players from freely cycling through disposable characters or creating new ones solely for the purpose of PK’ing others. When characters are treated as expendable tools, it undermines the risk and consequences that PK is meant to carry. Currently, some of these hitman characters do not even bother to pick up their own bullet casings or take basic precautions, because there is little to no fear of losing the character if they are identified or killed in the process. This ultimately weakens the purpose of Counter-PK mechanics, as the individual carrying out the hit has no meaningful attachment to the character being used. Requiring PK actions to be carried out only by a player’s Main Character would restore a sense of risk and accountability, ensuring that those involved have something meaningful at stake. For clarity, this rule should only apply to faction-related PKs. It would not apply to fail-mug situations or other forms of PK outside of faction conflicts.

-1 The real life Mafia had expendable men from all around the world depending on the race of the crime syndicate. Like for Italians they had zips from Italy come to America to murder somebody for them if they didn't want to risk their own men getting pinched or whacked, take The Tailors from the Sopranos for an example they were zips brought from Italy to be hitmen , when the war between the two families was happening they sent an Asian zip to go take care of a guy. It's just part of the roleplay and I honestly think taking away that aspect of the Italian Mafia it closes a lot of doors. I can see where you're coming from on this but it really doesn't make a difference in the long run because at the end of the day somebodies dying.

I’ve been thinking about how some current mechanics could lead into deeper criminal gameplay if they were expanded a bit. Right now we can lockpick vehicles, but realistically the only thing people do with stolen cars is drive them around for a bit and then ditch them. It feels like the mechanic is there but it doesn’t really lead anywhere. Since vehicles can already have premium tracking, once a car is reported stolen the police automatically get the vehicle description and location. That part works well because it creates a reason for police to respond. The problem is criminals don’t really have a next step besides abandoning the car. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Vehicle Theft → Tracker Removal → Chop Shops One idea would be allowing stolen vehicles to be brought to hidden mechanic spots or illegal garages where players can attempt to remove the GPS tracker. The removal could take some time, meaning the car's still traceable while criminals are working on it, giving police a chance to intercept. If the tracker is removed successfully, the vehicle could then be taken to a chop shop. At the chop shop, players could dismantle the car and receive things like: scrap materials illegal vehicle parts a payout depending on the vehicle This would turn vehicle theft into an actual criminal loop instead of just a temporary joyride. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Black Market Buyers Stolen goods could then be sold through black markets buyers. These could be NPC buyers that appear in rotating locations around the map and purchase things like: vehicle parts stolen electronics jewelry contraband Because the location moves, criminals would have to transport the goods across the city instead of selling everything in one place. This also gives police opportunities for surveillance, stakeouts, or interceptions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cargo Truck Robberies Another idea that could fit well would be cargo truck robberies. Delivery trucks moving goods across the city could be intercepted by factions. Players would need to: hijack the truck secure the cargo transport it somewhere else to sell Police could receive alerts like cargo theft in progress or hijacked delivery vehicle, which would create moving situations instead of static robberies. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- High Value Transport Robberies A similar system could work with armored vans or jewelry shipments traveling between locations. Factions could attempt to intercept the transport while police respond to protect it. This would naturally lead to bigger RP situations and vehicle pursuits. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overall Idea The goal isn't just adding more crimes, but creating connected criminal activities. For example: steal vehicle → remove tracker → chop car for parts → sell parts to black market buyer or intercept cargo truck → steal goods → transport them somewhere else → sell through the black market This kind of system would encourage planning, teamwork, and longer RP chains, while also giving law enforcement more situations to investigate and respond to.

Your Character or Steam Name: sodafang Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561198971359721 Your Discord ID#: 1450957454681702461 Reason for ban: Item Transfer Length of ban: 1 Week Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Dispute Why should you be unbanned?: Well it started when I saw my friend who I knew had suits, and I had a suit which I wanted to trade to my friend. So, I traded the suit to my friend, a Clause's White Suit, for the Blue De Niro and the Crazy's Suit. Around 10-15 minutes later he and I were banned for item transfer. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

if gun bags can carry one large gun, why shouldnt they be able to carry 3 pistols

Name of Character: Franco Varone Character ID: I don’t remember SteamID: STEAM_0:0:109334551 Your Discord ID#: dodsoldier Date of PK: 03/12/2026 Reason for PK: I was being stupid minge Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: I was playing on my other character with a good buddy of mine. When we decided to rob somebody. After they refused to pay at our shop, eventually, the cops caught up with us and I made this stupid idiotic decision to swap my character. To avoid the interaction. My character was then PKed. and I know it probably won’t happen and this appeal is a lost cause but I still wanted to come on here and apologize for my actions ask for mercy in this decision as it is the first serious punishment I was given on the server whatever the outcome of this appeal I promise I will never partake in mingey behaviour ever again I will follow every global and server rule down to the very letter I can only end off my apology by begging the staff team for leniency If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: N/A

I miss the diverge days when you could get on alt chars and 11 deep raid Sanzen's tire shop because they did something to your main chars faction. Oh how this server has fallen.

"Colombo UB is like alone alone"

Bro can't even RP when he's mugging, all his mugging clips are literally like darkRP muggings if adverting wasn't a thing in darkRP "don't move don't move don't move don't move don't move don't move don't move hands in the air hands in the air hands in the air hands in the air hands in the air " lmao

How can you promise not to do something and then carry on doing the same thing you promised not to do? @Cam said it clearly, mugging is an addiction you can't kick. Might as well pay Pendred for an unban at this point.

-1 He muggered me and i REFUSE to cope i lost my 1k suit and has to grind CRIMES sHOULD BE ILLEGAL AND AGAINST THE SERVER Rules. I want fun to be outlawed this guy should stay out of my wop mafia larp

Your Name: Mike Brown SteamID: STEAM_0:0:537580088 Staff Member involved: can’t really remember What was blacklisted from you?: PET Reason for blacklist (if given): I went over the top with prop flipping cars Why should it be returned?: There’s not much I can say to dispute this, if a clip exists of me doing this, it looks very very bad. I prop flipped multiple cars one night, on a sort of rampage. A mass car flip incident. At the time it didn’t matter much to me that I’ve lost them, I was so busy with life I simply couldn’t be bothered by losing my prop gun. However one night I decide to play the server and went to my ghetto apartment, only to find an empty space that I could no longer make my HOME. An overwhelming wave of sadness washed over me as I stared at this empty room. I am proud of my interior design skills. My ghetto apartments are truly a great area for all players to enjoy. A tsunami of grief washed me away when I realized I could no longer set up my hood drank stand independently. PLEASE FORGIVE ME STAFF TEAM. My actions were reprehensible, maybe I had to be reminded what it was like to play gmod without its essence. It is truly an unpleasant experience. I will not commit such acts again.

If you're gonna pk someone's (potential) main, you ought to have the same amount of skin in the game.

I feel like instead of it being Main locked it should be a minimum amount of char play time. Locking it to main would suck for those that don’t get to enjoy those mechanics or certain types of rp that they may not be able to do on their mains. Having a minimum amount of play time on a char would force individuals that try to abuse to actively put effort into their char and that faction.

+1 Hans my top shotta frfr

Add the possibility to favourite songs on the hi-fi, which would appear in their own respective section. Feel like this would make it easier to find my favourite songs this way to add to queue rather than having to scroll through the vast selection of music in order to find them Perhaps also add the possibility to rearrange the order songs play in the hi-fi queue

I mean I havent been on much but all i see about you is that you are a mugging character and back to the old habits instead of being a positive contribution to rp, and i think the best thinng atm is to make a donation ticket to prove how serious you are

I can see how being an avid mugger could be breaking the rules if that's the only thing I do in the server. But it's pretty clear and people have even said it on this appeal. I run the gunstore, sell guns, grind, and hire as many people as I can as of now. Just because I mug frequently doesn't mean mugging is all I do. Who cares if I mug someone every now and then? I'm risking the character that I've been grinding on and had for the past 2 years. It seems like if mugging is this much of a problem, even when done correctly, it shouldn't be in the server.

Anyways like Hans said HC and I had been talking to Hans trying to encourage him to do more than just mugging and he became one of our top recruiters and most active members filling in the gaps left by less active members. Not saying bro was perfect I did have to talk to him alot about his mugging habits but he genuinely made an effort to recruit order oil and contribute to deals and pay his kickups. Obviously the ultimate decision comes down to upper staff but imo I think its a stretch to say its a mugging char based off of what I saw from bro and our sale records and training logs. Overall sure his rp wasnt 10/10 but he did genuinely make an effort to make sure he was abiding by server rules and for the most part faction rules as well people are upset bc they got mugged and lost their shit which I get but idk to be crashing out and tweaking bc you were in a red zone without a gun out is kinda silly imo so idk overall he was making a solid effort so its a +1 from me

@ix_crazy_xi @Eviddy @Jxy3 Watch out there banning muggers!
