Would be good if you could put a bunch of songs into a playlist to play easier, also maybe a shuffle function

Forget the mafia, the real danger in this city is whoever taught people how to drive.

Hello! As already clearly laid out by Boom, you were PK’d for the blatant metagaming in the mugging. The mugging char was a separate additional report received on top of that. The metagame is clear as day which is already enough to have killed this character. For the mugging char, while you may have cared about the character in the past, all signs point to this being a mugging char now. 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.

+1 it would be much easier and faster then finding each individual song you want to queue in the hifi for your business

The real threat is Sos and there lag nuke.

(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) - Overall The Galician Mob is a faction focused on character-driven roleplay. Our faction is based on a real-world group (The Galician Mafia), meaning we will have ties to real-world history. In the 1970s, the Galician Mob began using fishermen to smuggle cigarettes through European borders and into Spain. With boats leaving from the US allowing for a state-based monopoly, the individuals stationed in New York will continue to do what their ancestors did before them, getting cocaine from New York and pushing it back out into the waters under the disguise of fishing. Through the 1980s, the pressure continued to rise on American drug markets and cartels. The Galician Mob continued to utilize these established routes, shifting their focus to more lucrative items such as money laundering and the infiltration of politics, individuals in power, and legal networks. Apparel The faction has the intention to wear a relaxed clothing scheme. We will not force our members to wear certain apparel, opening the door to individual diversity in terms of custom apparel, etc. However, at times we may wear suits during certain roleplay situations. We have no issue with members wearing relaxed clothing as long as it doesn't stray too far from our factions ethnicity. Restaurant We’d like to turn the West Side Drug Store into our restaurant of choice. We have the intention of having the interior altered and changed for our purposes, as our faction has background ties to “fishing,” and we’d like to explore that side of the server in terms of fishing on the docks. Our intentions are angled toward the idea of fishing as a whole, as it ties into our background. Faction Goals Fishing wasn’t good enough for us—working too hard and getting not enough in terms of pay. We have the intention of distributing our racket through the city. Our goals consist of importing and exporting useful items through New York, making money, and possibly being in a position of power within the city. On a side note, we’d like to push out weekly fishing competitions highlighting the fishing side of New York. We aim to provide for our fellow fishermen and push forward the fishing community, whether that be giving out prizes and rewards to those who compete, or having a custom DUP for the area when we go through with it. We would like to smuggle weaponry and illicit substances obtained in New York back to Spain/Mexico for profit. Hiring Process Instead of hiring white shirts off the side of the road, dressing them, and forcing them to work in Don Pez, we plan to make sure they are a suitable fit for the faction—maybe taking them out to the docks for some fishing. Having them prove themselves to our ranking infrastructure, or even putting them to work after a small but necessary screening process. After all, Don Pez is well known for its diversity in food, taste, and employees. In terms of the screening process, we will have our soon-to-be employees out completing small tasks for us, such as making deliveries, handling any outstanding debts we may be owed, and showing not only their worth but their value. We’d like to explore the roleplaying aspect of the server more thoroughly in hopes this creates an even better environment in terms of faction-to-faction talks.

Name of Faction: The Wright Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 23 and Growing Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Crime Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): English, (British) Name of Character running the faction: Daniel Fernsby Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): ___alex____#0638 Your SteamID: 76561198829389343 Your Server playtime: 3weeks 2days 7hours (559 hours) 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): We aim to be a higher class of faction. Bringing elegance and luxury to the city, tying in with our British heritage. As our main business, we would run a gentleman’s club/lounge. This would be considered a higher class establishment, where a strict dress code would be enforced to uphold our classy appearance. Once established, regular members will have the opportunity to purchase a VIP membership to the club where once a member, they will have the opportunity to enter into exclusive giveaways, enter private auctions for exclusive items, eat and drink for free for life, attend private parties, participate in a gentleman's boxing league and much more. We intend to be more business focused, rather than on bloodshed. We aim to have a well established private society, with an illegal racket running in the background. We also plan to have a tailoring shop as an addition onto the club. We aim to make buying clothing a new way of Rping. For example, if someone is to come in looking for a suit we would measure the individual and tailor the suit to them to ensure each item purchased feels personal to the buyer. This will apply for hats, shirts, jackets, and pants. VIP membership would also apply to the tailoring shop, bringing discounts and first dibs on newly stocked clothing items. For our members, we aim to offer a unique and refreshing roleplay experience. Don’t expect the typical stand in front of the door guard that everyone is tired of. We will offer immersive tasks and roleplay for our members to keep them engaged, even from the lowest rank. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): As stated above, we plan to hold private auctions for our "High Roller VIPS". The auctions would start at a much lower price than buying price so there will be a real incentive for people to participate. For faction members we aim to hold weekly "block parties" where faction members and guests can come to mingle. Appreciation and awards will be handed out to top performers of the week. We also want to give new people who come to the faction a more enjoyable time. No more sitting on a door for five years. We aim to have different positions for new members. For example errand runners, bodyguards, drivers, and bartending. One of our biggest goals is to keep new members interested instead of staring into the street senselessly. We plan to have open bar nights where drinks and food are free for anyone. To further iterate on our faction being heavily business based, we intend to build relations with other factions, but in the scenario that someone tries impeding on our business we wont hesitate to show face.

What he needs is a shrink at this point, he keeps doing the same things that gets him banned over and over again expecting something different to happen, harassing people non-stop but then tries to make it look like he's the victim in situation by lying or leaving out all the stuff that lead up to him being killed, kicked out, or banned. Brother got some serious issues, he's obsessing over a gmod server where most people don't like him

Cool story. You’re talking to a guy that routinely wins hold ‘em tournaments. You fish wouldn’t last a second with me. I’m not wasting me time playing poker for fake money when I could be making 1000s.

Your Character or Steam Name: $hit Demon Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:95130491 Your Discord ID#: samsungdevice Reason for ban: Mass Raiding and Trying to alt Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): I miss playing Diverge with all of my friends. This game has meant a lot to me over the years from when we used to play it a long time ago. I made a mistake mass raiding and then tried to alt. I know it was dumb and after a long break and reflecting on my actions I want to come back. The reason I used an alt was because I was a bit disgruntled and just wanted to play with my friends, which isn't an excuse at all, but that's why I did it. I shouldn't have tried to evade my ban, it was childish decision on my part. There’s no excuse for it and I am deeply sorry. I want to make a fun return after reading up on the rules I feel now I will make a good addition to the server. Sorry for all the trouble. Why should you be unbanned?: So I can enjoy this server again like I used to and can play with my friends and interact with the community. I miss all the cool people I used to be able to interact with and I enjoyed peoples company on the server. There are a lot of cool dudes I can relate to on here. I have read the server rules extensively and I feel that I will be a good part of Diverge Mafia RP. I will not make the same mistakes. Thank you for your time. Please take this into consideration and have a good day.

People hate it because you can lose items and suffer character destruction. People are punished for breaking the rules around mugging (which there are many) because each mug and the context behind it is generally nuanced. Using it to target people for pks (engaging with it in bad faith) using alt characters to mug avoiding all risk, only mugging and not roleplaying as a symptom of dark rp brain. Mugging is an integral part of criminal aspects of the server and even as controversial as it is or has been it remains a part of the game, but it has recognizably flawed attributes which are mediated and covered by rules. Engage with it properly and don't be surprised if you get banned for breaking a rule. Placing a bounty and incentivising people to mug someone where the explicit goal (incentive) is to get that person pked? (Circumventing roleplay and mass target mugging them in hopes they make a mistake and get penalized) The very nature and goal being to inflict harm and ruin the other persons roleplay. People will be understandably upset if they feel they were subject to unfair, ooc motivated, non rp driven targetting

I say we replace all cars with bumper cars. It will fit the RP better.

What am I supposed to do lie? I've learned my lesson I'm tryna flip cookies abiding by every rule

Okay, okay, hear me out. Factions never go to actual war (they usually de-escalate) meaning people just sit there hoarding wealth, right? So adjust the PK rules so that you can sue a member of ANOTHER FACTION without getting instantly capped, although obviously with the same punishments in place if for some reason you sue someone in your own faction / an allied faction. This way, grievances can get settled another way, it provides a back-and-forth transfer of money if people successfully sue one another, and maybe it could LEAD to escalation if someone is pissed that they're losing 200k for crashing into someone on the sidewalk. I think it'd also breathe life into the much under-utilized civil portion of the legal system. Yes I'm a little biased because I am also a judge on one of my chars. Thoughts?

Your Character or Steam Name: Bullets Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:746698861 Your Discord ID#: ibullets. Reason for ban: Metagame Length of ban: 3 days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): I'm disputing because its pretty retarded I was banned for the lightest amount of "metagame" considering I've been playing this server for nearly 2 years and only have been noted for metagame once because I identified a mugger without having IC knowledge of it being him and that was a year ago so I don't really understand why I was hit with this out of the blue. Why should you be unbanned? I'm pretty sure this is about the situation with myself and the Jewish folk, I sent a full clip to Byte about the situation and it had me logging into my character, and talking in discord for like 5 seconds with some buddies that are LITERALLY PERMA BANNED and are on a whole different RP game, once I started speaking with Rain and his friends I deafened immediately to actually play the game. I wasn't conveying any information that might benefit my situation, the only thing that would even be related in the slightest to the server is the fact that my friend I was whitelisting was talking about suits in the VC. I don't really see how this could be in any way metagame. The entire reason I was on the server was to whitelist my friend and then get off, I got into a gun fight with Rain and lost so I grabbed a gun from my ATM and logged off. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

Go look at my bank accounts. Try to tell me I don't care for that char. It's disrespectful to tell me that I don't care about that char, especially spending 300 hours on him, being made+ on it, and it being my current oldest character. I got whitelisted into Colombos and no one gave me starting money (they assumed I already had some) but I already spent most of the money I had on that character on suits and gambling.

If I wanted to start shit I wouldn't have kept my identity a secret. You never had my F3 so you wouldn't even know if I got on to RP or not. Plus, I actually did get on frequently and Roleplay on that character. I wasn't in there long enough to pay my first kickup, it wasn't a full week or anything. And, I got permission from Colombo streetboss to go out and mug. You're a prime example of someone speaking out of their ass lmao

How is my character supposed to know that a member of HC (Streetboss) isn't able to give permission to mug? And what do you mean you never saw me on? You admitted that askull was the only one with my name so how would you know that I wouldn't be on? Use your head buddy, it could help sometimes. You're taking this completely OOC.

Mugging has been a staple in diverge for years. If we cant mug people why is it in the server? Even if you follow all in game rules you still get hit for things because its so disliked Mugging is a part of roleplay, if you never had a risk going into the ghetto, what's the point of there being a ghetto?

My character doesn't know what position Askull is, just that he's high command. My character got permission to go mug, so he did. Also I don't recall reading that in the Family Rules. If you could, please send a screenshot of the specific rule that states that.

I don't "dick ride" people that get on my nerves. The dumb reacts are more dick riding than what I'm doing This rage bait is so successful

+1, church going individual, shamed chud admin for wasting 10k hours of his life on gmod. Seems genuinely apologetic. I say give him a chance.

Your Character or Steam Name: maverick Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 7656119907768138 Your Discord ID#: merrymav Reason for ban: RDM 2x PO (Alt ban 7 months ago from DC) Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? Hello, Canadian and all of the staff this may regard, I wanted to come and apologize for my actions a year ago. I had minged and rdmed people around a year ago. I have fully changed who I am and truly changed my RPing by venturing into other RPs like Fallout, DarkRP, FiveM, Halo, Half-life 2, and etc. I really want to come back to serious roleplay and I know that I am actually ready for the environment than I was from a year ago. I truly want to come back and impact MafiaRP positively with a good RP experience and give others the same. I have been clean for a long time now and I really am interested into playing a server like MafiaRP because I am really into crime and am taking undergrad to get into law and I am super interested into crime. I have really matured and have a lot more time to play the server. I have been clean for almost a year now from alting and have been working with staff to get rid of some of the inconvenience they may cause today. Thanks, maverick

What a guy! Love you man, God bless you

I have truly changed my ways and have not been alting at all
