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.

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.

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.

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.

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

-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

+1 Hans my top shotta frfr

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

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

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