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.

yeah thats me

Hello sir, The thing is after situation happened first i left the faction after that i deleted character and u just told me you cant do that immediatly and you thinked im just trying to hide myself and you never gave attention to my words. In the sit i was just tried to tell his friend or he hit me in my back while the other guy(owner of clip) is pointing and yelling me with gun in his hand.I didnt see who exactly gaved me damage. In the clip"s first second you can see we was in the bush, the owner of the clip cutted the main conversation.As i said his friend punched me in my back i didnt see exactly who punched me and i told you " can you check the logs ?" and u just checked it and said The guy who killed you he didnt punched you + you dont have clip of anything so you are lying me and you RDM"ed this guy just because i dont have clip. He showed you the "cut clip".Im still saying you guys can check the logs for prove im not lying. i didnt mean to RDM or break to RP i just thinked " his friend punched me while this guy pointing me gun and threatening my life is enough reason to shoot them" ALSO the most important thing i forgot to say is WE ARE IN THE SAME FAMILY WITH THE CLIP OWNER so MY OWN FAMILY MEMBERS is trying to punch me , kill me and im trying to defend myself "WITHOUT CLIP" and you just banned me.First i open a ticket in discord to speak with authorities and they told me they cannot help in discord you have to make an appeal in forum im new at server as i said i dont know what to do in these kinda situations im sorry but as i said someone gaved me damage with his hand and i tried to defend myself not breaking the rule and kill a random guy. Also which player can know trying to get in server in your friend"s account while you are banned and Perma ban will be the punishment? if i will know that off course i wouldnt tried it. im just thinking and saying this both BIG MISTAKE happened im not rejecting yeah but not on purpose.Im just a human as you and others but if you give me a second chance im promise these kind of things wont happen again Thank you for your time and help have a nice day.

Reason for ban: Ban Evading Length of ban: Permanently Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Hello me and my friend used to play a year ago, He stopped playing but I was hooked and continued playing alone. Originally as i remember I got banned for lying to staff and RDM it was a 2 day ban. But as I said I was hooked and didnt wanna stop playing so I tried to enter the server from alt accounts and got Perma banned. A while ago I was reminiscing about the times I had on the server and I realized how much I missed playing on the server. I completely understand why I got banned and my appeal being rejected after, I just want to say I am really sorry. And I promise I wont make the same mistakes again. Why should you be unbanned? : I miss playing on the server and do think I learned from my mistakes. And there isnt any similiar experience like this server on gmod. Loosing that made me realize I should be careful and accept punishment. I am really sorry and there is nothing else to say.

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

+1

+1 I have witnessed several more times actions that show this person does roleplay and cares about the server, and I know how valuable this character is to him. I think it’s a ridiculous ban because the staff dislike people who mug others, since it’s obvious that his character is not a mugging-type character.

-1 First of all, I have to admit that I found it quite amusing that you decided to list your age as one year older in your staff application. That alone already says quite a lot about your level of maturity. At the end of the day, you’re still just a high school student, and from what I’ve observed, you seem to spend more time mocking other players and getting involved in pointless arguments than actually contributing anything meaningful to the community. On top of that, asking your friends or people around you to support your application with +1s doesn’t exactly make you look any more credible. If anything, it only reinforces the impression that you’re more interested in attention and validation than in actually taking responsibility. Because of this, I genuinely don’t think someone with your current level of maturity is suitable for a staff position. A staff member is expected to represent fairness, professionalism, and the ability to remain calm and respectful even in difficult situations. From my perspective, you still have quite a lot to learn before you’re ready for a role that carries that kind of responsibility. And to be completely honest, I highly doubt that a server like Diverge Networks, which aims to maintain a certain level of quality and professionalism, would seriously consider adding someone to their staff team who constantly looks for opportunities to be toxic and mock other players instead of helping maintain a healthy community environment. The fact that all four staff members you listed are in the same family as you is already quite a joke :D. ( Boosted, Dopeasretired, Schmekles, Lunar, ) Your Don, Your Underboss, Your Capo, And Your Senior Streetboss You’ve written a story claiming you won’t show bias, but I’m more than confident that once you’re on staff, you’ll become the king of bias. NOTE: And before you start making fun of it, yes, I used ChatGPT for this text because I felt the need to carefully explain in my own language just how pathetic and pitiful of a person you are.

+1 I have known them for a long time, and even though our relationship hasn’t always been perfect, I cannot overlook how they have consistently tried to help me and contributed to my understanding of right and wrong. I believe that sharing this quality with other players would benefit the server and set a positive example, which is why I am giving a +1.

under normal circumstances i don’t respond to anyone’s messages, and I have respect for everyone’s opinions. However i want to clarify that I didn’t answer the questions using ChatGPT or Translator. I first wrote them in my own language and then used ChatGPT to check for grammar mistakes and fix them, so the answer to your question is no, I won’t.

+1 Looks like a valid app, why not

where is the democracy nigga

that shi aint happening gng

I actually read the whole thing, making clothes non-muggable and saying actions during a mug don’t count as FearRP or PK doesn’t really make sense to me. From a roleplay perspective, going against people who are trying to rob you is literally putting your life at risk, so I definitely think it should count as PK. As for the money system, I think it makes sense, but if they add a rule like that, everyone’s just gonna keep their money in the bank and stop carrying cash. Instead of this, Im more in favor of fixing the inconsistencies in the Mug Char and Mass Mugging rules. The main reason is that there are a lot of players whove been in the community for a long time, follow all the RP rules, but still end up getting perma banned because of how flexible and unclear the mugging rules are. Even right now, there are a couple ban appeals pending from well-known and respected members of the community because of this.

There is already a setting for that. Just open your Q menu, go to the top right and click on Options, then you’ll see ‘Attachments’. Go in there and if you set ‘Attachment Locking’ and ‘Lose Atts. On Death’, it should fix it.

Appreciate you taking the time to respond But I honestly dont remember ever talking while I didnt have my mask on, and no offense, but I’m like 99% sure I didnt make that kind of mistake If i actually did, then it is what it is, i only lost like 20k anyway, so its not a big deal for me What I really dont get is why the PK was still active hours later?? I just cant make sense of the logic behind that

Appreciate your help and honesty.

Im not tryna find a loophole at all This is my fifth time getting PK’d, and its the first time Im actually appealing one with all due respect, in my opinion this whole PK situation is straight up bullshit Y’all are the ones who need to admit you took the L on that mugging lol you camped in front of Garrison for more than 2 hours just to PK me I didnt lose anything on my character that I actually care about anyway. Like I said, it’s just that this whole situation ending in a PK doesnt make ANY sense to me, and Im here to stand on that bro like tf?

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

Please no I love my car randomly getting hydraulics

Russian approved +1

W idea +1

+1 Been on Diverge for 2 years, and he is the most RP-respectful, serious player Ive ever met. No doubt he is gonna handle this and bring some solid RP to the server. Really liked the idea and the application, so it is a straight +1 from me!! -Andy

-1 Nigga tf is that

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

nigga is a OG release the horde +1

I’ve run into this guy a bunch of times, and I can say he’s funny asf. I don’t think he’s a troll at all from what I’ve seen, he’s active on the forum and Discord. In my opinion, he could be a great staff member for the community, so it’s a +1 from me. Good luck on your appeal! -Turkish Guy

+1/-1 Low playtime.

monaclu.. this guy... hates... incremental games....

Holy crap +1 release the horde bro

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

dont know why I get -rep for not knowing what to do exactly

My homie got so fucking mad he camed back with an valid idea to fix the issue, +1 this nigga is onto something bro.

Eggsy you alive bruh?

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

So YOU'RE part of the reason there's a queue and connecting to the server at 8PM on a saturday isn't a skill, I've practiced TOO LONG on cookie clicker to perfect getting on my 2nd favourite incremental game (I love incremental games) basically first try #Worstdonever

W idea why not??? +1

fw the idea +1

Hello, first of all i want to state i wasn't involved in the situation at all. But i wanted to argue that "Due to your behavior in the sit room, your punishment was needed to be bigger." You cant just extend somebody’s punishment based on the way they talk or the words they use. The only topic banned by UA here is “ERP”, besides that players aint obligated to respect nobody or talk all polite n proper. And considering the dude you banned is clearly not somebody who’d even raise NITRP suspicion, plus you literally admitted yourself that you extended the punishment because of his behavior, it’s kinda obvious the call you made wasnt really the right one. Now if the player bein disrespectful makes you wanna use your own judgement and hit him with the max punishment for the rule he actually broke, thats fully your right as staff. But you cant increase somebody’s punishment just cause they got emotional, mad, or started venting their feelings. I know you still pretty new to being staff and my intention aint to teach you your job or point fingers at your mistakes, I just wanted to respectfully say that I dont think the decision you made really lines up with the server rules. And in a situation this complicated and open to debate, where the player clearly wasnt intentionally doing RDM and doesnt even got a crazy record/history, banning him mainly because of the way he acted over the admin sit, just dont feel like the right move to me. Just wanted to put that out there. Wish both sides good luck on the appeal tho, much love n respect.

When a black woman speaks it should automatically mute everyone else’s mics so we can listen, and learn.

its been long enough since it happened i think everyone can make mistakes he deserves another chance why not +1

well well well.

string is a good guy.

In-Game Name(s): Tyrone Slander, Liam "Akira" Keegan, Andy "Akira" Noburu Steam Name: secret Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/xsfqnn/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:439522528 Discord Username: xsfqn Age: 21 When did you first join the server: 25 Aug 2024 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 1,300 hours (1 mo 3w 3d 6h 3m) Time Zone: GMT+3 How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 20+ hours weekly 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? (Unless you have posted a valid LOA): 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? I've been on the server for almost 2 years now. With summer coming up, I probably be spending most of my free time on Diverge. I always been curious about how things work behind the scenes, and I think becoming a staff member would be a great way to help the community. I've been part of this server for a while now and wanted to be part of the community in a different way whics is like a non-faction role. I finally hit the point where I don’t need to grind for cash all the time anymore at all, and I realized I can actually enjoy the RP. I have a lot of free time now instead of just grinding drugs/oils all day, and I wanna try becoming a staff member and try some new stuff along the way. Why should you be considered over other candidates? I think there are two main reasons that make me different from other candidates. First is the amount of time I can spend playing on the server. I usually play on Diverge for over 50 hours a week, so being active and handling tickets would not be a problem for me. Second thing is my timezone. There are times when staff might not be as available, especially very late or very early. Those dead hours are normal for me, so I believe I can help when support is needed the most. Do you have any previous staffing experience? Yes, I do. Back in 2017–2018, I had staff experience on Turkish DarkRP servers. I was a Helper on MoonRP and later an Admin on NarkozRP. Of course, compared to Diverge, those servers were much smaller and less serious, but they still gave me experience in dealing with players and handling staff situations. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why? Yes. To be honest, when I first joined Diverge, I did not fully understand how serious the server and its rules were. I acted immaturely at times, and because of that, I got banned more than once. Looking back at it now, I know I made mistakes. Over the last few months, I’ve been trying to improve myself by staying out of trouble, reading the rules again, and changing my behavior. Would you say that you are well known in our community? What is your reputation, and what do other members think of you? I would say some people know me in the community. If I have to honest, my reputation was not good in the past. I made a lot of mistake, and people had tons of reasons to think badly about me. And if I have to speak the truth, I gotta admit they were not wrong at all. I was bringing a lot of emotions and acting dumb, which was not necessary at all. But over time, I realized where I was wrong and tried to improve myself. I tried to stay active, respectful, and on my best behavior on the server, forums, and Discord. I hope people now see me as someone who has changed and matured, instead of an annoying guy. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far? Without any doubt, the racket wars of ’89 and ’90 were some of my best moments on Diverge. Besides that, becoming a made man under Le Mob French and even simple moments like playing golf with Governor Winston Yu were some of my favorite memories on the server. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names. No. I didn’t want to bother any staff members or ask anyone for recommendations for my application. Problem Solving Detail step by step exactly the actions you would take. Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this? If Im off-duty, I would handle it like any other normal player will do and create a ticket. I would not involve myself at all, other than that ill provide any evidence if i have any. The only exception would be if there were no other staff members online, and the person was seriously disrupting the roleplay, such as mass RDM. In that kinda situation, I would step in and try to handle it until other staff become online. You have seen a fellow staff member of higher or equal rank abusing fairly often, but never doing anything too obvious. What do you do? First, if the situation is not too serious, I would talk to the staff member privately and warn them about what I noticed. If they ignore it or continue doing the same thing, I would report the situation to a UA member and provide any evidence if i have. A friend or faction member has a ticket against them for RDM or minging. You know they normally don’t act like this. How do you handle it? Does it create bias? I always keep a clear line between friendships and business. If one of my friends or someone I know is breaking the rules, our friendship would not change how I act or how i handle the situation. I would deal with it fairly, based only on the evidence and what actually happened. If they were clearly in the wrong, I would take the correct decision and also talk to them afterward if its needed.
