I'm in their discord, they haven't recruited an associate in over two weeks, it's kind of pathetic. The Cartel de Cebollas and the Hand of Pokemon have been waiting a while, i'd like to see them around.

neegy faction

i used to wiretap niggas all the time

Add flock cameras to Diverge

whats the point in having them around they are just retards

Wouldn’t it be less safe to use one of the 10 landline phone booths around the city? I walk into the electronic store and just buy a phone, how is the government going to know which phone is mine?

discord got a conspiracy against yo ah andy

Are we still talking about the wiretapping suggestion? Seems like this one is a little hard for @Omertaand can't express his feelies

We have wiretapping. As others have said it’s just rarely used because of the logistics and manpower needed for it.

i joined yesterday at 1.00 am and i was grinding money for hours i did everything they said and i did nothing wrong i feel as if this pk was unjust and i was not giving a reason for this pk i kept to myself. My time with them was a waste i grinded 64k and then i get pked for no reaso.

real shit fuck rudaj

I've personally gotten hours of wiretap footage/audio against Kirov, the others we've tapped I can't talk about!

uh no, we can literally get one because "This guy commits crimes and hes going to have a meeting about his crimes". these retards just dont know how to do things, otherwise they'd be getting done

I could've sworn on my life that shit was still seized

are you perchance trying to find them at the pharmacy? they’re on at their jewelry store in chinatown a lot.

wrights are active

I was in the faction, I was probably the last dude to hire someone. I promise its so dead bro, idk why its still up. I was capo and left faction and they didn't notice. Thats why you said 2 weeks, thats literally me and when all my friends decided to leave. HC holding onto literal nothingness.

In-Game Name(s): Yaropolk Frolov, Bruce Collier, Pilgrim Vanhorn Steam Name: spectral0153 Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/pilgrimiscool/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:512146164 Discord Username: pilgrim_12 Age: 17, 18 in a month When did you first join the server: First joined the server on 10/22/2023, I took quite a long brake consisting of around 3 years and returned on 6/28/2026 and have been playing ever since. Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 1w 2d 16hr Time Zone: GMT+1 How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: Quite a lot a time, I would say a couple days per week. 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?: Sort've Do you acknowledge that lying on this application will result in immediate denial and blacklisting from staff?: Yes. ------------------------------------------------- Long Answer Questions proceeded with an asterix require a response of 3 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: Mostly because I want to enjoy this experience and fulfill my dream of being it, I feel, that if I become this I can bring a lot of leadership such as good communication, and my accountability I want to have a good experience within the server as for the most part I have, I know what to do as a part of staff team within the 90s Roleplay and the responsibilities it upholds, I also want to also become apart of this staff team specifically because I think that I will be a good addition to the server, thanks to my previous experience in other related servers. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: Well my maturity to start with. I still like to have fun and keep things light hearted, I really take interest because it seems a breath of fresh air for me. Besides, I have quite a lot of experience in these types of servers and just roleplay in general, seeing as I've held numerous high ranking positions within different servers and that has given me a lot of knowledge on basic conduct. I can offer good communication, accountability, and honesty. What stands out about me would be my leadership, I can establish order in any situation that requires it and delegate tasks in a clear and concise manner, leading to a more orderly and efficient work environment. I am also strict with the people who I work with I possess an array of skills which all come with separate responsibilities and obstacles to deal with on a regular basis while dealing with people of different skill sets I believe with my extensive knowledge of the and ability to not only command but assist other people makes me the best candidate for the job. I can make any and all people in the staff team become better and more efficient than they are currently. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Yes, I have been staff in multiple Garry's Mod servers, my most notable being in DarkRP servers, I can't remember the servers due to my brake I had overall from Garry's Mod servers which was around 2 years. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: N/A Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: I would say I am well known, most notably on my PD character which is Yaropolk Frolov, the name I provided above, my reputation I would personally say is positive including with the public and other officer's within the department. * What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: I haven't really had any favourite moment so far to call it my favourite, but I overall enjoy Diverge Networks as a whole, as in my opinion it beats any other Roleplay server within Garry's Mod. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: N/A ------------------------------------------------- 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?: I will make sure to take a clip to already have evidence, providing the RDM was not committed on me there is no bias, I will pull him into the sit room and check his previous offences, depending on the previous offences I will take the proper action according to punishment guidelines, making sure I have evidence in this case. 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?: If I see a fellow staff member abusing their commands/powers I will take a clip of the incident and report it on the forums, unless theres a higher ranking staff member on to be able to handle the situation, I will submit any other relative evidence as needed. 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?: Unfortunetly, due to it being a known friend or faction member of mine, It will contribute bias and I would wait for another staff member to handle the situation, the reason it constitutes bias is I could have unfair decisions on the other person or have a certain bias due to it being a friend therefore, I will establish the staff situation to some other member of staff that is currently online.

-1 You have the same last name as lomac

Mobile phones are used daily for organizing and setting up drug deals, if PD could wiretap phones via warrants it would incentivize criminals to speak less freely on mobiles and get them to use the phone booths which can act as the "safe" way for criminals to make calls or using burner phones.

if i asked you kindly enough would you willingly tell me your phone number so i can wire tap it

Thank you for applying to the Diverge Networks staff team. Unfortunately, your application has been denied. You may apply again in 30 days. You may apply sooner if you receive permission from a Super Administrator or higher.

Have you tried grinding bricks for the don

we can’t be fr rn, we are on a new level of chud.

Resist the use of nigga for one day challenge. All of Diverge will lose.

Theirs recording devices and wiretapped phones its just not a common thing. Idk the logistics of it but ive seen wiretapped phones in some accounts that went up for auction and the actual recording devices.

Like others have statead, wiretapping mobile phones is wildly unrealistic in this time period and when it comes to the RP on the server, I don't see any practical appliance of it(When does Police ever get ahold of your mobile phone, and if they do and they can wiretap it, after the first incident the new norm will be that if the Police get your phone somehow, just get a new one). The only real way this would be done is with a wider eavesdropping operation on the mobile network and within a specific range of service but that's beyond impractical when it comes to the server capabilities.

Wiretapping is already a thing, and idk what bro is talking about that wiretaps weren't a thing before the 90s. Wiretapping phone lines started in the 1890s smh. Let's make this shi a surveillance state. All detectives should have a quota of one wiretap a month.

You really are a dumbass and either can't read or refuse to comprehend what's been said out of bad faith. Attacking me argumentum ad hominem totally helps your case, also. Call me old some more and act like that has anything to do with the argument. At least I know talking to you is pearls before swine. What a retard.

if possible (i dont know anything abt how diverge is ran from a technical standpoint) run checks on where a source of damage comes from relating to stash cool downs. its pretty annoying having to wait due to fall damage or a light car crash! thx!

People are projecting modern surveillance backwards. In 1990, broad electronic surveillance of Americans was far more controversial, more legally constrained, and much less technologically pervasive than it became after the post-9/11 expansion of surveillance powers. The USA PATRIOT Act didn’t invent wiretapping, but it dramatically expanded the government’s ability to conduct surveillance and shifted public and legal attitudes toward it. Treating 1990 NYC like authorities could casually tap mobile phones on demand is anachronistic. If you’re trying to roleplay the period authentically, investigations should rely far more on informants, physical surveillance, warrants, undercover work, and old-fashioned detective work. We should not project modern expectations of ubiquitous electronic monitoring into 1990s RP.

Yeah, pal, 9/11 hasn’t happened yet. This shit would not fly in 1990. Come back in 12 years once we get the Patriot Act.

You can do this any time you want btw

Most people don’t realize that, if they genuinely enjoyed the server and wanted to make things right, they could simply make a new character in an allied faction and come back a week later. All it takes is enough self-awareness to acknowledge their mistakes, adjust their behavior, and give it another shot. Instead, most people become self-righteous and mistakenly indignant, choosing to blame everyone else before moving on to something else. On top of that, police characters have an incredibly low chance of ever being mugged, PK’d, or facing many of the consequences that people playing criminal mains have to deal with. It’s easy to see why some dickless weasel would gravitate toward that role. The appeal is obvious through that lens. I know cops are necessary, and I always appreciate the people who play them well and genuinely roleplay. But let’s be honest: most cops are complete dunces. A lot of them are essentially side characters whose only purpose is to fuck over someone else’s criminal main. The slightly better, but just as common, version is the cop main who barely roleplays and exists solely to grief other people’s main characters. It’s sad that the cop I should fear and hate the most, an intelligent badge with a genuine passion for investigating and fighting crime, is the rarest kind of cop in the city; one I practically have to wish upon a fucking star for.

+1 A good guy in the community and very Competent.

Remove the inactive factions please. I know for a fact wrights, Rudaj, and (MAYBE) a few others are inactive as fuck and don't deserve to stay when theres people waiting. All respect to the don

The issue stems from when a coup is discovered. Once discovered, i.e. no longer a surprise, it turns into a civil war. I just need a small script made/added to facilitate that and it solves all issues.

beautifully spoken... omerta

WIRETAP THOSE PAYPHONES. WE BEEN DOIN THIS SHI SINCE THE 1890S. I LOVE THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Having to be in uniform 24/7 without paperwork is gay. It's just a skill issue if a detective in a suit fucks you, Yes 1 guy abused it but that shouldn't ruin the entire thing. If your playing gmod mafia rp and can't handle someone slapping you with a pillow go to pony rp

All PD has been made bitch asses. I got back in PD a week ago or so, and bros cried I tased a dude when he was sidestepping cuffs. CAN PD GROW SOME FUCKIN NUTS AGAIN DAWG?

Hihi! 1, Name of Character: Character ID: SteamID: Your Discord ID#: Date of PK: Reason for PK: Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: Follow that template. 2, You were pk'd for bringing heat to the faction. I was informed that you were causing issues with people around the city and were an overall liability which lead to your death. Good luck on your appeal.

Let’s not even get into other logistics of this. How the technology works, for example. What’s next? We hire phone phreaks to reverse engineer taps and start whistling nuclear launch codes into NORAD hotlines? Like, get real. Nobody is tapping a fucking cellular phone in 1990. Most recording devices weren’t even recording the “line” back then and simply were physical devices that went in the phone itself. From a legal and technical standpoint, this is so retarded to defend that I’m somehow shocked even the typical knee jerking pickle sniffing fucks are here to argue against what is chronologically sound.

You’re proving my point, not disproving it. The Commission Case is famous precisely because the FBI spent years getting court orders to target the bosses of the Five Families. That’s not evidence that every associate or soldier in 1990 NYC could have their phone tapped on a whim. Especially a mobile phone? Wiretaps existed long before any of this. The difference is they were targeted, warrant-based investigative tools, not the broad surveillance culture and expanded authorities that developed decades later. Getting these warrants were under very strict conditions and guidelines and tons of evidence was constantly tossed due to mishandling of taps. The audio was recorded at specific times for specific periods of time and the only reason so many mobsters got buried was because they were all loudmouths who couldn’t stop boasting about their crimes. Not to mention how many taps were just at a physical location and not actually on the phone. Most of the time the warrants were location based meaning the devices would go in the phone, in the whatever. Tapping a long range line or mobile device would be very tricky in that day and time. I’m sure you’ll find another way to knee jerk and dismiss the reality of the matter, though. Typical clueless Divergian.

I will assume it was RICO, murder, or major drug investigations that led to these taps? There were limits on them or what? Surveillance has existed forever in LE but it’s supposed to be physical surveillance mostly with minimal device planting for some other recordings that were often inadmissible without specific permissions laid out in a warrant. A lot of the time they did trash pulls, planted devices in public pay phones for short periods, and watched people from unmarked vehicles. Plus, undercover use… see how well that turns out most of the time.

I see you people saying all this shit so often and it’s just so funny how clueless people chat the most shit not knowing what they’re talking about. The City already has in and out of character solutions for dying/dead/low activity factions and how to phase them out, turn their properties over, etc. Really cool “suggestion” though.

No brainer +1

Remember this when you want to pk someone. Ur making batman bro

i mean you die in a criminal life you might as well try the legal route
