Name of Character: Riccardo Velardi Character ID: 133857 SteamID: STEAM_0:1:47817991 Your Discord ID#: xDutchCat <@272344652789579777> Date of PK: 1st of August 18:09 GMT +1 Reason for PK: Constant Schizophrenic Episodes and other dumb reasons imo Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: Punished twice for the same altercation If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guideline If it gets denied so be it, worth a shot, i feel like the orders were written based on things that were already handled? Whilst I have to admit; as Head Enforcer I was more than a willing participant of the family of Altoviti, I was their lapdog. I did everything they asked me for without questioning the Don. I know the PK Rules clearly says, when you're no longer an use for the faction you can still be permanently killed, however i feel like i am punished mulitple times over the same occasion that did happen. I've had some of these 'schizophrenic' episodes like no shit, you're trying to protect the family from a threat, however I feel like I was killed over something that was already solved before hand. 'Constant schizo episodes causing Command to question reliability and decision making' Knowing I was a "schizo enforcer" in a positive way for literally the whole faction but, before I was Head Enforcer, giving me the trust to kill Silvio, never mentioned anything i've done to anyone to something that sounds very close to vethar and fabrizio oocly trying to coup the faction and I was the one who went schizo in the dms of camilla and austin about the fact that zq and vizions looked like they were couping austin, there was a whole OOC Discord conversation about it this how Austin had a plan for the faction; I immediately apologised, we never really had a IC sitdown about this cause technically this whole situation got voided afterwards by UA (See most below pic, i was told to apologise to ZQ for being schizo for example this situation; i know where it also is OOC i still apologised) Embarrasement of the Family name was a genuine mistake from my side where I took the Altoviti last name, and was taxed $750.000 for the last name, 'absurd amount of money' tax on an associate, I genuinely thought I was approved to have it when they found out, i had to change it back to Velardi and was pushed immediately into a sitdown for a tax of $750.000 Again, I get why I got a hefty fine; I was never given a deadline; I was just told to hurry up, I worked my ass off to get the $750.000 pronto and to pay this back Struggle to properly communicate with capo and maintain professionalism with crew command; Due to my languague barrier and my clear poor skills of communicating I personally asked for a sitdown with Camilla; so we would work on proper communication since I've been told OOCLY! She was irritated about some things I didnt communicate about in a proper manner. We had a whole IC Sitdown, JJ and even Boomroasted were spectating the scenario, joking I'm getting my ass kicked by a female. Anyways; we worked everything out, the next way of approaching the future and taxtation of associates and how she for example disagreed previously how I taxed an Associate for an 'absurd amount of money' where I even admitted it was hard to adapt to the constant change of command within altoviti and how shit what ran constantly shifted directions, i said examples of before how certain people like head enforcer were allowed to call out who could be marked, but again, respecting the decision of change and that that fact was the past. After this sitdown I wasn't really online and communicating with any due to work IRL the only time was me giving jerry $800.000 for the fine i was given to be passed on and when we ICLY and OOCLY agreed upon making two made men possible enforcers and that was YESTERDAY! the 31st of july,

Name of Character: Fagurt "Pantyhose" Wopkilar Character ID: 203841 SteamID: STEAM_0:1:55215430 Your Discord ID#: 2222sushi Date of PK: 08/02/2026 Reason for PK: Gunfight with cops. Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: The circumstances don't seem fair here as I was a bystander. To me what happened seemed like RDA multiple instances happened that night of stove bombing and police were running around the city detaining anyone with no cause looking for stoves. In the clip after I was shot Character was broken, one office said "CLIP THAT!" and a Probationary said "PK" in text chat. I understand I choose to retaliate and died, that gun was all I had to loss so no harm no foul however I'm concerned about fairness. I've had a similar situation back in Diamond Sydicate when a motel lock picker was shot and the PK was denied due to someone saying "that's a PK" I feel like anyone can just break character now and people will be picky choosy in the moment. Thank you. If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/neKUVmO9x6KHLBWru?invite=cr-MSxOQWssMTQ1MDkzODgy

Hi, I'm one of the officers you shot. An arrest being made on you unlawfully (As in my clip; Do not arrest him we do not have probable cause.) is an IC issue! You should've made an IA report instead of shooting a cop! Me fumbling with my keyboard "*@ VCWP Pk*" and my superior officer telling me to clip it for a ticket, Doesn't invalidate the PK due to it being training for a new probie (Alfredo explained that I'd need it for a ticket), and a typo in my haste to make a (my very first) coroner's ticket! I had just got out of a gunfight with you and was rushing to make the ticket. I utilized reasonable force after you engaged me with your PM9 as in the clip, and you were PKed on the grounds of VCWP (Violent Confrontation With Police), because you hospitalized a police officer with a firearm, you then got gunned down by the other five officers, causing your death and subsequent PK. TLDR: You were actively involved in a VCWP and lost. Neither of these were OOC in nature, as stated in PK rules "Initiating a shootout or violent confrontation with Police can lead to a PK. Killing or attacking an Officer after initiating a violent confrontation leaves you PK active from officers for about 15 minutes. Generally we want people to not immediately go for the gun when dealing with Police, as a result if you escalate a situation to a shootout and lose you can be punished via PK as your character was killed. This does not apply if it is the Police that fired first or escalated to a shootout." Both clips utilized in this situation provided. You seemed to "Not care" about the PK, but have gone to the lengths of appealing and getting salty OOC! :C Best of luck on your appeal friend!~ [LOOC] Fagurt "Pantyhose" Wopkilar: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/neKSUtiNRQEJ5-si0?invite=cr-MSxIa24sMTQ1MDkzODgy (Deleted, Shows him engaging PD with his PM9 after an officer tells him to "Stop moving, and that he's being detained") [LOOC] Probationary Officer Erik Henderson: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/neK6FfzD0JOC00ug_?invite=cr-MSxjWW8sMjUwMzU5MTAz

Hi there, As we discussed during the sit, you being a bystander during the situation and being detained / arrested was not RDA and could have been played out IC. If you felt this arrest was unjust then you should have let the RP play out as you most likely would have been released. But as you stated you retaliated by opening fire, which then ultimately led to you dying and the character being PKd. If you notice or feel like cops are randomly arresting people during your session of playing, your first point of call should be making a staff ticket, not using it as leverage when it may benefit you in a situation involving staff. By doing this it eliminates the problem before it turns into a bigger issue. In regard to the similar situation you reference, every situation is contextual. The officer saying "@ VCWP pk" in chat was clearly them trying to create a staff ticket, and the other officer saying "clip that" is irrelevant and does not invalidate the PK. In my eyes neither of these acts where an exaggerated or malicious break of character, nor did it affect the RP situation. Best of luck with this appeal!

Your Character or Steam Name: Andy Bingting Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561198147955113 Your Discord ID#: I dont think i was ever in the discord? Reason for ban: Nitrp PO x7 Length of ban: permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Listen I know this looks bad, the ban says to take a break and its been 2 years. I just want to play on a populated good server. Its hard to believe but I have learned my lesson please I'm begging let me back in. Why should you be unbanned? This is one of the only good servers left on this game... I was banned a long time ago so just give me a 8th chance

shut up you loser hacking on gmod and ur still trash and paid i dont wanna even know how much lol

Yea no shit, Your underboss really begged me to get on all of the sudden, very suspucious if you have a very "schizo" dead enforcer, lemme just break rules by avoiding rp on purpose. Aint finna argue further!

holy Schizo post

You got 2 perma bans under your belt, take a hint. The way you word your appeals keeps getting dumber and dumber too. You're in no position to appeal shit just enjoy what was already gifted to you.

We all know you're gonna go straight back to that shit

+1 We need a replacement turk on the staff team after Velocity died... GET HIM ASAP!!!

Yo I'm ying bao in this situation in the clip there is three of us ying bao me out on the streets coming to ghetto after the callout, Harry Paul Sack is the guy inside the apartment y'all were lockpicking into, and the person that killed you is Harry Ding Dong aka tokyoo. He's been in the server for a little over a year of what I know his name is out there people do know him. Theres no third person peaking he's already actively on third person and before the engagement y'all are not seen until after when he peaked out shooting. so anyways 1. No third person peaking 2. different person giving comms 3. The sig is very tight spread with hip fire 4. The third guy died accidentally when he moved from brown coat to you (hence why he's strafing after killing you expecting the third guy to peak) 5. It's called having a rapid trigger it's not hard to click a gun consistently after pvping for long in the server 6. You got wiped and you do care of the character if you're pulling this just get better at the server man

Muh why isint this cartel a paramilitary or terrorist organization that is full of retarded psychopaths why do they change the way they operate in the US muh Muh why don’t they dress like ranchers when NYCs setting makes dressing like this impractical muh muh I don’t know anything except what a far right podcaster told me about CJNGs retaliation towards the Mexican government for the death of their leader Muh muh why faction not 100% alive when it’s not accepted yet WTH Muh

/looc Is there for a reason people need to utilize it.

In-Game Name(s): - James "Noir" McGriff [Underboss] • Steam Name: Andy • Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/xsfqnn/ • Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:439522528 • Discord Username: xqkhu • Age: 21 • When did you first join the server: 25 August 2024 • Total playtime on our Servers: 2.162 Hours (2mo 4w 2d 2h 34m) • Time Zone: GMT +3 • How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: Even on days when im busy i can probably still get on and put in few hours of work • Have you read the rules?: Yes • Do you have a working microphone?: Yes • Do you acknowledge that you must meet the weekly minimum ticket quota of 20 tickets?: Yes • Are you familiarized with SAM and/or Nutscript commands?: Yes • Do you acknowledge that lying on this application will result in immediate denial and blacklisting from staff?: Yes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • What is your motivation/reason for applying?: In my free time i usually spend time on the forum and Diverge Gen. I honestly enjoy helping people and giving advice to new players, i also reached a point where i dont have to constantly grind money anymore so i want to try something different and experience a non faction role. I have been roleplaying on the server for almost 2 years and i really enjoy being part of this community. Over time i became interested in how things work behind the scenes and how staff deal with different situations. That interest is one of the reasons why i want to become a part of the staff team • Why should you be considered over other candidates?: There are three different things that set me apart from the other applicants. First i have a lot of free time that i can dedicate to this role. Second, because of the time zone difference the hours when the server needs staff the most are normal hours for me so i can help cover those dead hours. Lastly i used to be someone who broke a lot of rules and didn't really care but once i realized how much being part of this community meant to me i made an effort to learn them. At this point i'd say ive memorized almost all of the rules. I learned from my past mistakes and because of that experience i believe i know the rules better than most players • Do you have any previous staffing experience?: I've been playing Garry's Mod since around 2016-2017. During that time ive been a staff member on several Turkish servers mostly DarkRP but also servers like HogwartsRP and StarWarsRP. However compared to Diverge ive never held a staff role on a big server or any platform worth mentioning before • Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, I've been banned and received notes multiple times before. Like I mentioned when explaining my motivation reason, i used to be a player who didnt care much about the rules. However over time i learned them and i truly believe ive changed. Its been almost 3 months since my last Staff Application and during that time ive spent around 1,100 hours on the server. Throughout those 1,100 hours i havent committed a single rule violation that required staff intervention or resulted in any punishment • Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: * At this point i believe i am a well known person in the community. If you asked me this question in the past i would have had to admit that my reputation was terrible. However after i started caring more about the server, respecting the rules and changing the way i treated people, i believe many people started seeing me in a better way. I dont think there are many people left who have a negative opinion of me • What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: When i think about my best moments the first thing that comes to mind is participating in Racket War '89 with Le Mob French as part of the core group. We were only 6 people but we managed to finish 7th on the server. Other than that joining Racket War '90 with the Bruno Scarfo family, moving to Supreme Team, being allowed to create my own crew, having 15 people flag up on the first day and eventually becoming HC (Underboss) are some of the moments I value the most.These are easily some of my happiest and best memories on Diverge • Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: DopeAsRoe (Ex-Seasoned Administrator) Boosted (Administrator) Sips (Administrator) SexaphoneGod (Administrator) Alfe (Administrator) Jennay (Administrator) Crocie (Administrator) Ka1 (Administrator) Wickers (Administrator) Plummet (Moderator) Auxiliary (Moderator) Ender (Moderator) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: It depends on the situation. If there are no staff members online and the player is clearly going into MRDM or seriously ruining other peoples RP i would switch to my staff character and step in. but only if there are no other active staff available and the player is actively disrupting the server. Otherwise i don't think its right to handle an RDM case that im involved in or witnessed myself. In those situations i would either create a ticket or let another staff member deal with it if possible • You have seen a fellow staff member of higher or equal rank than you abusing fairly often, but never doing anything too noticeable. What do you do?: It kinda depends on the severity of the situation. If its something minor and i dont think they did it intentionally i would simply warn them about it and tell them to be more careful. Howeve, if the situation is serious i would make a Staff Report like any other player, provide the evidence and information i have and let the UA handle the situation • A member of your faction / friend of yours has a ticket made against them accusing them of RDM’ing, and minging. You know that this person rarely does this when you play with him. How do you proceed knowing this? Does it constitute possible bias?: If a situation like this happens and there is evidence i wouldnt care at all if the person was my friend. I would do my duty and take the necessary actions. However if a complaint was made and i knew this player was capable of doing something like that but there was no evidence, i would seriously warn them and make it clear that if i ever witnessed something like that our friendship would not stop me from giving them the punishment they deserve. I think the most important thing for a staff member is not letting personal feelings affect their decisions. Whether it's a friend or someone you don't like shouldn't matter. I would look at the situation, treat every player fairly and make sure the correct action is taken no matter who it is

+1 good application and hes been around for long enough to know the rules i dont see why not

You were scitzophrenic most of the time, while this served useful in very rare cases you were seen as a threat the past couple months.. Signed - Don Todaro.

Can you take it once again and score better

Hello! I was the one that wrote the orders on you and was responsible for your death. The reasoning behind your death stems back to the beginning of my time within the faction and for some a lot further, you have given us reasons time and time again to get rid of you and yet we let it slide every time. But at some point, the time comes where you are of no use to us anymore. You had seen too much and could implicate all of us in too many crimes to just simply demote you so you were taken care of. At the beginning of your time in the faction over 2 years ago you accepted the risk. We wanted you dead so now you're gone.

idk why niggas be hating

In the middle of a gunfight?

It Says in your DM's you knew this was gonna happen......so whats the issue twin.

1. These mean nothing. This is a front someone is putting on to try and keep relations/whatever other purposes. It also doesn't negate my point which was you retired because you lost a position. You swear vows/oaths to commit yourself to the Don and his family. If you ask me, I do not believe retiring because you lost a position demonstrates that. 2. There were numerous other small things that contributed, including but not limited to how you spoke to Faction members and dressed. The security vest was ridiculous looking and is not professional. Recall when you were asked to take it off. I did not want to air this out, but we have also had more than one person reach out about how you've made them feel uncomfortable, especially women. Pet names over the radio in front of other faction members left female associates feeling uncomfortable and inclined to mention it to HC. This is unbecoming of someone in a high-ranking position that you had. We can chalk this up to a language barrier, but the effects on the faction persist. You keep mentioning things that have occurred years ago. I cannot and will not speak on them, but please note that it is consistent behavior and errors that have led to this. From what has taken place in the last few months, this was coming (as you said yourself). Regardless, you've lived the life and now this path has been ended. This is the risk when you join a criminal faction. I truly wish you success and long-term stability with whatever route you choose to take next. Much love and good luck on your appeal.

It took me awhile to cut up that body, probably all the scitzo meds @Cam

Since were showing DM's

Hey Grizzly! As someone involved in the PK and a significant contributor (as you said, an "ass-kicker"), I wanted to offer some further insight and clear a few things up. Firstly, the decision to have you as Head Enforcer was a large topic of debate from the very beginning for a variety of reasons, most notably how you retired the second the Enforcer role was temporarily no longer being used by the Family. That is not a display of unwavering loyalty and dedication to the Family, which is something that is essential for those within the Family, especially a Head Enforcer. You also heavily implied that a coup was forming against Austin during one of the Family's most turbulent periods while we were sorting through HC members and leadership changes. This only added to the immense distrust within the Family and contributed to the continued loss of activity and trust between members. Secondly, the family name situation was egregious. This is something that would cost a lot of people their lives, and I truthfully believe that a $750,000 fine was more than reasonable for something of that severity. Thirdly, our communication as Capo and Enforcer. Communication has never been your strong point, and I do believe that is partially due to the language barrier. While that is not necessarily something with a quick fix, it has hindered the relationship between yourself and others in the faction and has had a direct effect on my crew. There have been multiple occasions where you mistakenly pulled people (including myself) into "meetings" with Company Security as a scare tactic over things that were simply not accurate. Whether or not you received a list of people who supposedly had not paid kickups, it was your responsibility to verify that information. A high-ranking Enforcer should do their due diligence before confronting people, especially when the information was readily available to you. I would never make a lasting impact on someone or take action against them without first weighing the consequences and confirming that a violation had actually occurred. You almost drove both myself and Anna (at the time, the two highest contributors and, frankly, two of the four people keeping the faction running) away, which would have had dire consequences had Austin not stepped in and resolved the situation promptly. Lastly, I noticed you were using screenshots of our discussion about moving people to Enforcer as evidence that you were still useful to the Family and to support overturning the PK. Frankly, you were not calling those shots. Those were two people who had already been hand-selected by myself and other members of command. You asked me who you could move, and I gave you an answer because you had little information or experience with them on the server. I have been working to improve the enforcer role within our Family, and have established with other command members expectations for that role. We now have a successful security team because of these efforts, and you did not play a part in that. As Head Enforcer, this is something that you should have been doing. You ultimately made your own position redundant, and because of that, the decision was made to PK you. With your tenure, your position, and your previous "schizophrenic" episodes that caused command to question your reliability and judgment, it was simply too much of a risk to demote or retire you. You held one of the highest positions within the Family, had knowledge that could heavily implicate us, and once command determined that you were no longer an asset to the organization, the decision was made to PK you. Despite all of this, I appreciated my time in the faction with you and consider you a close friend. I genuinely wish it hadn't ended this way, but at the end of the day, this is just a function of the game, and ultimately, it's Mafia Roleplay. You went out honorably, and I think you should reflect on your time here with gratitude for the experiences you had and the friends you made along the way. Best of luck moving forward. I'll always be a supporter.

Good afternoon, sir. It is great to see your ban appeal, though I do have some unfortunate news as a professional Larpologist. I am not sure what you are hoping for in terms of quality, but the Fritz Perfect Server Impossibility Principle states that a gmod server can have very good roleplay or a very high population, not both at the same time, and that this is due to fundamental player dynamics like the law of minge toleration, and high-playerbase maintenance theory, which makes the cost of maintaining high populations on gmod servers exponentially higher, but we won't get too into that stuff today. What's important to know is the equation itself: σ · Ψ < κₙ Where σ = Average Peak Player Count and Ψ = Roleplay quality on a scale of 1-10 The constant is defined as the Fritz Capacity Constant (κₙ), equal to 512, an experimentally determined upper bound on the total social coherence a Garry's Mod server can sustain. It is treated as invariant across roleplay gamemodes. As the population increases, the maximum possible roleplay quality decreases inversely. The constant 512 shows that a full 128 player server, such as Diverge Networks, can sustain, at most, a roleplay quality asymptote to 4: lim σ ÷ 512 = 4 σ->128 The principal also predicts: Since RP quality is capped at 10, the limit of player in a server with perfect roleplay is also defined. σ < 512 / 10 = 51.2 I will take my Honorary Ph.D from Pendred now
