I don't remember what day this happened on I was up all night long processing meth and after I processed enough I was going to car dealership to go sell my meth to the npc in the corner of car dealer And I saw my friend getting picked up by two SOS I got up close enough to see if they were messing around but my Friend rain kept saying put me down and they kept saying no And in the clip provided from Rain and the SOS in Rain's clip you can hear them say no but in the SOS Guy's clip there is no mic audio at all which means they shut it off manually Which makes them a suspect of metagame And especially one of them are third person peeking around the corner And the reason why I was banned because was because I was supposedly too far away to hear them And if you think about it why would I take a gunfight up close on a 2V1 Additional Information (images, videos, etc) https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mTiy9lZngo7PcRYFR?invite=cr-MSxlNk8sMTE3NTYyMzEy&v=8 https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mRSauLGSgTrMg1M29?invite=cr-MSxMaDYsMzQzNTg4NzI2&v=72 https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mRSfDYnxC-SjlB-m_?invite=cr-MSw5S0csMzMwODc5MDY&v=25

Your Character or Steam Name: Joe Claver Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:1:129714782 Your Discord ID#: maks8235 Reason for ban: Spreading word about other rival server Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Its been ages since i have been on diverge and i heard lots has changed. It has been months since i even played on any mafia server, let alone diverge. Kind of realised that those servers failed to achieve what diverge had for ages and i want to get back in and RP with the community i had on there. Honestly, it was never my intention to ever leave diverge, and i never had a chance to explain that all i was saying is that there is another server on the way everyone should try, and i did not know diverge disliked them. I have been playing diverge for a while and always stuck to the rules, i wouldn't get myself banned for something like that on purpose. I had a pretty good reputation on here a while back and no one wanted me gone, and i want to experience the feeling of this server again. Much appreciated Why should you be unbanned? never was my intention to give a bad name to diverge, and i never really got a chance to explain myself, instead i was insulted and left for good. My hours on gmod in general sky rocketed from this server alone, and i spend hours and nights on it, thats how fun it was. I want to see what's new as i heard there was tons of updates, and i want to be apart of the community again. Additional Information (images, videos, etc): Nothing

FYI in rains clip he’s hot micing the whole time and he isn’t making any call-outs.

Ol ball and chain moved in with me, she does not work. The only time she leaves the house is to go shopping and the gym. I haven’t played diverge ONCE since she moved in. How the fuck am I going to explain this shit to her. “Why are you doing a black man voice on your game”, “why are you saying the N word every 10 seconds” what the fuck am I supposed to do? This is my favorite video game, but I want to avoid these conversations with her. If I explain to her that I’m roleplaying on a Gary’s mod server she’ll leave me in a heartbeat.

Have her make a char thats your in game wife, that has NEVER gone wrong ever! Good luck!

I'd recommend getting her on Diverge but that doesn't have a very good track record.

You should never have let a woman into your sacred place.

Add a way for us not in the oil factions to double check prices ourselves because we have to take the word of someone working there.

In-Game Name(s): Santino D’Angelo Steam Name: killerman10118 Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/killerman10118/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:569612902 Discord Username: string_000 Age: 18 When did you first join the server: March 2021 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 3mo 2w 5d 13h 25m Time Zone: Pst How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: Weekly - 10-15 hrs 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 but lowk been a while 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?: * Well, truthfully, to be honest with you, my main reason has been due to my spark for diverge re igniting. I’ve been playing this server for the last 5 years. I’ve been playing on and off, but mostly on, and have grown up through this server, corny enough to say. I’ve gone from a little 13-year-old kid with a squeaky voice to an 18-year-old high school graduate with a heavy accent. I’ve had some of the most fun online through this server and the people I’ve met through it. Every time I diverge and play and see something or hear someone’s voice that I’ve talked to or done before, it sparks a memory in my mind, which is all good for my past on this server. This has occurred through my ups and downs. I’ve had the chance to play during times when people mingle, especially during nights or down moments, and to be honest with you, it kills the mood. It makes the player more likely to do stupid stuff that they see, and from my own perspective, I’ve done it before as well. I just want that to stop from occurring and make this server a server that people play for years, having good memories and making friends that stay for years as well. I just want to extend this server to be as good as it is now in the future. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * I should be considered over other candidates, truly due to my experience both in staff and also due to my play time/years played. I have been staff 3 times on this server, and each time I have gotten to admin before leaving for different reasons each time. I’ve amassed thousands of tickets throughout that time and have been through every single situation that anyone could think about, from a simple RDM to a mass perma ban case. The second reason is due to my play time and resulting from that experience. I’ve been playing for a while and, because of that, know all the rules and all the specifics of the rules that others may not know. I also am very versed with the community, as many know me. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Diverge 3x - Admin each time. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: To answer this question would be as if a bear shits in a wood. Of course, I have been banned before and for every reason anyone could think of, from mass rdm to vdm to RDA to power game and to mingining. I’ve been through it all, but gladly this has happened in the past; now my future and present. A thing I like to remember about mistakes is that the past has happened, the present is now, and the future is later. I can’t change my past, but I can fix my future by not messing up my present. I’ve been playing for so long and have made so many mistakes that I am ashamed to be truthful. I won’t lie and say that I am a perfect person. I’m not; I’m one of the worst cases of this, but I try, and even though many can’t see that, those who know me personally know that I have changed and tried and try daily to fix myself from my past. To those I have told before, I’m sorry for my past; I’m sorry for what I’ve done to you in the past; I just want a chance to show who I truly am and who I want to become. 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 not to gloat about myself, to be one of the most well-known people in this community. I’ve talked to essentially everyone throughout the years and have made many great friends and, sadly, enemies who do not like me. Like I’ve said before, I’ve done lots of wrong to lots of different people for lots of different reasons. I’m truly sorry. I’m not ashamed of saying sorry because I know I’ve messed up, and I just want to say Forgive me; let me show you who I am seriously and don’t base me off my minge side / the side of me that you have seen that is annoying/mingy. This is apparent when I joined Colombo’s and have essentially completely changed who I am. I don’t want to be known as a troll or little kid, but as a normal guy people can have fun within VC or even in-game. I just want to have fun with everyone, as this is a game, and everyone wants to be cool with each other. I don’t want to be that unchanged person that people hate. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: Not to be cheesy, but every new moment I have on Diverge is my favorite, but in my past it would have to be old Lucchese, ccng, and even new Colombo’s, not gonna lie. I like to live in the moment rather than reflect on the past. But one memorable moment was when we had defeated the federation in the war, and we had a big party afterwards, shit was peak ngl. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Bullets - Admin / GM ------------------------------------------------- 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 I were off duty and someone RDMs, I would first talk in admin chat by using @ and see if any admins are able to take the ticket and respond as soon as they can. I would also see if the RDM is near me so that I can have a clip ready for staff just in case the T.M doesn’t have any. But this also depends on the circumstances, such as other admins being afk, then I would get on my staff char to assist and whatnot. 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 this would happen, since I don’t have the power to do anything about this, I would first collect as much evidence as I could to compile it into a Google Doc to then give it to UA / Canadian Bacon to deal with it. 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?: This would be 100% biased, as if you take a faction member's ticket, your subconscious would be favored towards your faction, as you know them, and it wouldn’t be fair for the other person. I would wait to see if any admins could take the ticket and deal with the situation. But look, if no one else is on and I have to take the ticket, I would do this. I would approach the ticket the same as any other ticket, no matter what the situation is and who the person is. It could be my friends or even my don. I wouldn’t care; I would approach it like any other ticket and move with collecting evidence and moving forward, and if needed, get an extra opinion from other staff / higher admins than me to help without an bias. ---------------------------------------------------------

(Reference your unique RP from the question above): The White-Collar Corporation works with every side of the city to host events and provide factions an opportunity to do more mob related things against civilians which so far has been almost nonexistent. By providing these events and different businesses we are promoting civilian/legal RP while also providing criminals/cops RP by interacting with the civilian side. We are involved in all kinds of industries and have a ton of ways for factions interact with our employees as event characters and normal civilians just trying to survive Southside one day at a time. From construction sites, factories, oil tankers, truck robberies, waste management and more we can provide factions unique and new RP that they haven't experienced yet. Besides bringing new stuff we also hope to compete with the other two oil companies in the city and provide some interesting white (and blue) collar RP. Employees who work with us are promoted through profit and performance, making sure that the earners are given more responsibility and the chance to run an industry within the White-Collar Corporation. Come into the city and keep an eye out as almost everything we do is on the fly and happens at random! The following is how we handle day to day operations and how we keep players interested in a corporation. The Corporate Ladder Employees at the White-Collar Corporation have the ability to move up in the ranks at their own pace, with good RP and a hard work ethic employees can earn promotions during regular earning reports where the White-Collar Corporation management look into profits and the employees work done. By climbing the corporate ladder employees can take on manager positions overseeing operations such as construction, call centers, organizing truck shipments and many other industries that need leadership to start up or for the best of the best, the oil business. Every White-Collar Corporation employee should strive to work their way onto the board of the corporation where all major decisions affecting every industry is made as well as the millions of dollars tied to each industry. The board and managers will work together to lay out plans to take over the oil market, making adjustments as needed and introducing new ways for the employees of the White-Collar Corporation to buy oil at greater rates. IP Acquisition: The White-Collar Corporation is regularly looking for new IPs and products or services to provide, taking advantage of the markets looking for assets that are for the taking. Examples of this include the acquisition of the Rockefeller Polo and Pin which brought the WCC into the clothing market, selling this combo for $5,000 to people around the city and being told off by the Rockefeller Company for trying to sell them to Rockefeller employees. Another example is the dissolution of Dom's Deli and La Fucina, a White-Collar Corporation employee saw opportunity and reserved the names of these businesses before trying to use the LLCs as leverage to speak with the Bonanno Crime Family and secure future business for the corporation while handing the businesses back. While the White-Collar Corporation understands business it does not understand the streets of Southside and how crime ridden they are, leading to Mr. White-Collar to be picked up outside of one of his businesses and sat down with the head of The Commission to understand why a corporation would try to buy out a deli and gun store before resolving the situation with a handshake and two glasses of whiskey... Breaking into the Market: The White-Collar Corporation will be relentless with breaking into the oil market to compete with the current oil companies. Only the most efficient and ruthless employees will become management or join the board within the oil division of the White-Collar Corporation where we will compete with and secure the customer base of the current oil companies by introducing an aggressive buying campaign as well as looking to provide a more stable presence in the market allowing customers to make their purchases without having to wait constantly for the other two oil companies. While the White-Collar Corporation is aggressive trying to break into the market it does not mean that they won't negotiate and try to work with the other companies if it means increasing the White-Collar Corporations bottom line.

Hello, Once upon a time we removed the ability for properties to have food registers, in place of that we set up Shipment NPCs where people could order in food items (in bulk obviously), and then transport them to the property, and store them for selling to people. At the time, this was somewhat unpopular due to a few issues. Such as: - Storage entities were frequently being wiped, which would mean people would spend many hours organizing stock and arranging deliveries, just for it to be wasted. This is no longer an issue as storages permanently persist. - Having to have millions of storage lockers to store them in, making it difficult to effectively organize. - Lazyness. But this is a task that should be delegated to lower ranking members. - The old shipment system had dogshit configuration, so you couldn't order multiple at once. - Whatever else, it was years ago I don't remember. So we eventually reintroduced property vendors, but with a limit of 15 items. Today, I was reminded that we once had this system. Thinking about it, I realize that its reintroduction would come with many benefits, such as. - Not having to rely on me or Canadian to get on and change vendors when you want something changed. Which is a lengthy process, getting approval from FL, making the UA ticket then waiting for us to change it. - Being able to sell a wide range of food and drink items, instead of being limited to 15 pre-selected options. - Boost of available roleplay - new hires can be assigned as delivery boys, restaurants will have to organize their stock and have dedicated people managing it, ensuring supplies stay available, and much much more. We would make the following changes with this: - We would create a new type of storage item, that has a much larger inventory space, but in return it would only be able to store food items. Thus resolving the issue of having to have 100 storage items. - We would update the Shipment NPC UI to have organized categories so it isn't all cluttered together (like it is now). There would be tabs, nice and organized. - Shipment timing for food would also NOT be the same as drugs/guns. They would spawn immediately for collection. So I wanted to see what you all think - would this be something you'd like to see? I cannot see any real downsides to this, other than lazyness / not wanting to RP. But maybe there are some - so by all means let me know if there are. Or perhaps there are other things that would need to be done alongside what I have proposed. Either way, please let me know your thoughts.

Previous POs yeah just accept the ban u got caught I’ll be waiting for that mug though

There is a way to take cartel RP where the barbarity exists, but behind closed doors. Just because we're not stringing up bodies every day in some elaborate set up doesn't mean we're not a cartel, or that the violence isn't there. You're just misrepresenting what im saying. Most of what you're saying is merely speculation. We plan on committing violent acts, and all of our hits will reflect that. All i said was that it will be more hidden (more implying there will be some acts of public violence).

Senior Admin gave you clear cut proof. Cant argue with stupidity. We will be prepared for the metagame mugging squad coming our way.

-1 has 33 notes, props blacklisted, 3 bans this year so far, and had a perma for mass rdm. Not sure why he would even apply. Never had any actual good interactions with this player. Not fit for staff at all.

-1 Cheaters gonna cheat. Struggle Street has found its new king.. or queen? idk.

I demonstrated his to PD HC before it was added when you're executing it brings up the window with all the charges and you can add as needed if they were eluding and additional charges are required.

Enjoy your vacation

THISS BRO, My mic isn’t muted at all like these metagamin bikers

Hey so im the banning staff member in this case. There had been a discord ticket made due to a staff member's recommendation about a ticket he was unsure about. There are 2 relevant clips for this situation and both will be labeled and attached below. Inside of those clips we see two sos dudes goofing off and picking you up while ragdolled. You say 3 times throughout your clip “ put me down” the last being at 48 seconds in. on clip one we see no sight of your friend until 56 seconds in where he is far away running towards you then two seconds later he shoots. After he shoots a firefight breaks out killing the two sos. When the fight is over we see your friend running up towards you and much closer now as he ran during it. During your initial sit your claim is that he was just running that way and was close enough to hear your voice and defend you. I had tested this with another staff member to see how far the voices go exactly to get a rough idea of if it was possible and it was very far off, to the point where there isnt any chance you were heard. The claim is he was just running at that exact second and then defended you, however when comparing it to the theory of metagame,it makes alot more sense as thats what everything points to, a random man shooting two dudes who were carrying a white shirt with no identifiable features at the time provides very compelling evidence to that point. Discord tickets 10425 and 10458 for the seniors or supers that review this should help you, the red is your friend, the blue is you, the green is roughly about the max voice distance from where you were. you are implying its 3x the size as depicted as thats where he shot, not where he was first seen. feel free to test, or have your friends test if you don't believe me! heres an imigur link as it wouldnt paste for some reason- https://imgur.com/AVrWvj0 https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mRSauLGSgTrMg1M29?invite=cr-MSxMaDYsMzQzNTg4NzI2&v=72 Clip one https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mRSfDYnxC-SjlB-m_?invite=cr-MSw5S0csMzMwODc5MDY&v=25 Clip two Same as money blue/ rain ban and situation have a good one!

That’s not true

As Cartel de la Costa ex-made +1 #iwantcartelsback

Dude? Are you from stupid town? You have to take word of someone who is in a legal faction who sells oil as a living. You are the one who is jewing around over a few bucks for a barrel of oil whilst prices at B&S for example has been deadass shit. So in my opinion, you should totally be able to see how much oil goes for as a criminal from a different faction! Maybe this will permanently seize sales at the oil factions because you want 7000 a shipment! Obviously the NPC is always at a high stake. Rockefeller and B&S both have different rules regarding their taxes a sale. Adding this will ruin sales at B&S and Rockefeller

how does this affect the gambino crime family?

(Unless you have posted a valid LOA): Yes Are you familiarized with SAM and/or Nutscript commands?: A bit 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?: * I am applying for staff due to how much time I spend on diverge, my schedule just opened up a LOT and I can dedicate a lot of time to contributing to the server roleplay wise & hopefully staff wise as well. I know a bunch of staff members and they constantly tell me to re-apply so I found motivation to make another staff application. I feel like I'd be great at being staff considering I have a bit of experience and would just need a bit of a memory refresh. I spend most of my hours on diverge and would love another reason to continue staying active on here. A lot of people bash me for my PO's but I believe I have definitely changed my ways and would love a shot to prove that. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * With my experience as staff, I am familiar with how staff sits are held and the process of them. I also have been playing diverge for quite some time now and I have the rules memorized like the back of my head on this server. People (enemies) tend to see me as a problem causer OOC/IC but really as Kosher HC I do believe I provide a good foundation for my people and even within my alliance. I also notice a hefty amount of tickets open at once and with my activity I'd definitely make a difference on how many open tickets there are at once. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): AtomicRP - Moderator (2-3 months I believe) Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, I have a bunch of PO's for different kinds of shit. However, I have not been banned for over a year and have definitely learned my lesson. Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: * Yeah I believe I'm well known & liked by most, however a select few people might not agree... What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: The War of 89'! That'll never change. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Bullets, calink, vethar ------------------------------------------------- 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 would clip the situation, reach out to another staff member in-game and have them handle the punishment/compensation with the proper evidence. 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?: I would clip the abuse from the staff member and pile it into a staff report so UA can handle it. 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?: Yes this situation can constitute bias, even if you're trying to be as neutral as possible it can still constitute bias from the community and that's never a good look. So I would not get involved with the ticket

Your Turkish fella here. I had the chance to get to know many people in this faction including its founder, through the Bambozzini family. They are all friendly people and most importantly, they genuinely care about roleplay. I have personally witnessed how long they've been working and putting effort into this application together. I haven't seen a cartel on the server in a long time, and considering their dedication and the amount of work they've put in, I think they absolutely deserve a chance. Massive +1 from the Turkish Bambozzini, Good Luck On The Application!

Hi. I was the staff member who helped out with this situation. In your POV clip, all 3 of you approach at different angles, 1 is already on the scene and the other 2 (you and the old man) approach after with guns on safety. There's no communication between you guys, one guy initiates and you two just join in from across the street which already looks very suspicious in my eyes. In the 3rd clip there's a 4th guy that is just on the scene for some reason who appears to be on lookout? Not sure what he's looking for but okay. In the 5th clip there's a 5th guy who jumps down from the train tracks but there's still no radio communication. Then the 4th guy follows the 5th guy into the sewers after the shootout. 5 people involved in 1 mugging with each person appearing from a different area. In the first RDM clip (the guy was punished for the multiple counts of RDM) you say "I just got killed" and then start speaking in game right afterwards. Then in the second RDM clip you're all talking in Discord and the guy in the clip mentions "yo I'm with the guy who just killed us" which was trimmed from the clip. I downloaded the full clip you sent @shy. Then some other person in your call says that they just got RDMed and someone else starts talking right after. The whole mugging situation seems very strange to me that 5 different people all appeared from multiple different places, no radio voice communication and no text chat over the radio? A lot of things aren't adding up.

-1 dude just got banned for metagame. no need for him to be staff and abuse those powers too...

That picture is literally in speaking range, a few steps forward and boom, you can hear everything… the imgur that yuki posted is exaggerated and the red crate was FARRR off from the light post. How do you know he didn’t reposition and back up a bit to a safer spot than up close against 2 people? These are all just straight assumptions rather than actual proof and it’s aggravating how you retarded bikers are always minging around then make a report when I say something about it.

If you took ur head outta ur ass you would see we were but alright pal

it sends them straight to pen.

Allow us to amend the charges when executing a warrant to add charges on to the warrant to say they commit felony resisting while fleeing. as if you just send them to court regularly the warrant will still stand

@Zay santos You may only comment on an appeal if you were DIRECTLY involved with the situation leading up to the ban OR if the appeal is for a permanent ban. Replies that are not to do with the situation will result in a forum warning and/or ban.

"Most cartels uphold a reputation for their public acts of violence, where we are going to take it to a more hidden and professional place. Instead of dressing like some thugs, our guys will present themselves as serious, legitimate businessmen." It just sounds like you guys just want to be a mafia faction in all but name. You cannot have a cartel faction without frequent public acts of violence and barbarity. If you are going to have a cartel faction, you have to commit to it. I get it, you aren't going to dress up as cholos or whatever. But at the same time, you have to dress like actual Narcos if you really want it to work. I mean, dressing up like "Some thugs" wouldn't be bad roleplay. And the whole legitimate businessmen thing you guys are aiming for. I don't really see it, true Narcos will act like Narcos. True Narcos will dress like Narcos. Best case scenario, it would work for the people in high command. But for street level guys, no. Most Narcos do their best to puff out their chests and let the whole world to not mess with them. The last thing they will do is have a cool and calm demeanor. I mean, the Mexican government had some cartel boss killed a few months ago, and a third of the country was in hell because the Narcos were killing random people out of pure spite. Imagine if I'm a new player and I see a cartel faction and think "That sounds cool, I wanna join them." Because I'm imagining all of the brutal cartel stuff that usually happens. But when I join, it's just mobsters. Instead of having people named Paulie or Louie eating spaghetti for whatever. It's gonna be people named Pablo and Adolfo eating tacos or whatever the fuck. But other than the small differences, it's just a mafia faction. I signed up for a cartel faction, not a mafia faction with the cartel name just slapped onto it. Then I think "Man, this is lame." Then I leave the faction, or God forbid, leave the server. That ain't good, now is it. Speaking of the faction, it's really impressive that your cartel has over 40 members already. However, it's a bit perplexing that I haven't heard of literally any cartel roleplay in the server. Not in character, not out of character. Not. A. Peep. If I were the one making this application, I would have included footage of my guys actually roleplaying with other members of the sever instead of scripted RP. All you guys have is a Narcos intro parody, and a fake interview. Shouldn't there be a little more RP? I understand, this is a new organization. But there should have been more roleplay prior to the posting of this application. More importantly, there should have been footage of said roleplay included in the examples. What is currently there, leaves a lot to be desired. That being said, I'm going to give this a -1 until you guys start acting like you are in the CARTEL and not just Colombozzini.
