Your Character or Steam Name: Spooky Pyro Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:1:69780698 Your Discord ID#: 666780178290311175 Reason for ban: Metagame | PO's Length of ban: Permanent Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? I have been banned for almost two years. In that time I have made 3 appeals on this ban, understandably they have all been denied. I still have continued to play on other servers and stay active within other gmod communities, in one I have become a prominent player for my police rp (before my discharge) and pvp. I have also never alted or tried to cause severe discourse in this community. I was banned two years ago for metagame and before that I was already perma banned for rdm bait. I had a substantial amount of PO's ranging from metagame, rdm bait, and rdm. With the addition of this perma ban I reached 16 bans in total. When I was unpermad for rdm bait I said that I had changed and I was a roleplayer. But I quickly devolved back into the reasons for my removal of this community. I agree to what anzati said in my second appeal, I was associating with people who only wanted pvp instead of rp, but I am not going to act like I was too immature to not act different. Looking back into my old clips I can see that I was nothing but annoying. Sure, I was having fun but it was easy to see that other's were not. I have already apologised to the community numerous of times in appeals. There is nothing more that I can say or bring up other than how apologetic I am. It has been two years after all and I am looking to have a fresh start playing in other factions. I have had people reach out with the same question "when are you coming back". From both sides, people from the "anti-commission" zeitgeist as well as people in the commission. Some of those people have offered to pay for my unban but I always shy away from it. It is summer break and I want to try diverge again. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

I've been told this is actually a *second* situation with you guys, so who knows. Apparently you all were on some fuck shit last night or something.

Well I can give part 1. User made ticket to report you two for RDM. Had the shortest clip ever, showed just like a gun on safety and a countdown, and someone got out and shot him. I told user "Hey lets make sure we're following escalation rules. i.e. when you threaten an individual with a gun you have to point it. Obviously you didnt shoot him, so not serious." Told other user "Let's make sure we're waiting till they point the gun to take a shot at them, and dont be dancing to prevent them from seeing you pull your gun" (It was tim burr) I was not made aware of the larger firefight or given any further information Later, Greenghost stated that he had a new clip and asked if it was "Handled". I said I wasn't aware of a longer, fuller clip, and that he should assess the situation himself with the new information and make a ruling. He did so, which led to your ban. P.S. "Why didnt my friend also get banned" Dry snitch ass nigga

WE want the roulette table to be brought BACK to the new casino.

Hello banning staff here, After reviewing the footage, I believe the ban on Matador was justified. The appeal claims the shooting was done in defense of an ally. However, the footage shows that the players who were shot had not escalated the situation to a level that justified lethal force. While there was a verbal confrontation and firearms were visible, neither player was actively threatening Matador or Tim Burr at the moment shots were fired. No punches were thrown, no weapons were aimed, and no shots had been fired. Additionally, Matador is seen taking his weapon off safety while using a dance animation before opening fire. Whether intentional or not, this concealed the animation from nearby players and allowed him to get the jump on the individuals he ultimately shot. As for Tim Burr, his ban was removed after I realized I had relied on a note that was tied to this same incident. Since Tim Burr did not have prior offenses, there was no basis to maintain his ban. Matador, however, had a prior Slight RDM note, which was considered when determining punishment severity. Based on the footage, the lack of sufficient escalation from the players who were shot, and Matador's prior history, I stand by the original ruling.

Shy is the banning staff member. Different incident than the one I reviewed.

+1 I've known Sosa for around 3 years from various different communities, he was actually a big help during the start of my Diverge experience. I'm not going to sit he and act as if Sosa wasn't a minge as I was partially victim to his antics as I was a Bonanno during his time in De Leon, but if he has been this consistent with appeals I believe he should be given a second chance. I don't think the "pay the toll" catchphrase is a fair approach to this ban and I think he should be given another chance and if unbanned should be watched for a little. I also would like to note Anzati was insanely correct with the PVP over RP comment, De Leon a group that was full of minges but thankfully they've changed their ways as of recent, ix_crazy for example, he isn't perfect by all means but he is definitely more behaved compared to 2024 and I feel this might be the same situation for Rupert/Sosa.

+1 unban spooky bro lowk dont remember how ik him but from what i think he is a good guy i dont remember lowk

Our Serbian friend from the Supreme Team got us into his crew and he was out that night we didn't believe what our 3rd friend that got banned too said to us about the conflict we messaged him on his discord and he didn't respond because he wasn't home, when he came back on he got told that we got banned because of the 3rd guy Mare that lied the Supreme guy from Serbia teached us everything what to do and what not to do if he was there that night this wouldn't have happened because Mare lied about us being in a conflict and we are so sorry once again this will never happen again you have our word we miss this server a lot and we want to come back with something new and actually bring a normal positive roleplay to the server.

DAMN i didnt know any of that bro

Hi. I am the member of staff who dealt with this situation. There were 3 of you guys who Mass RDMed, a lot of tickets came in about RDM and after looking in the logs and checking all the kill/death logs, multiple people came back under the kills. After going to the location of some of the kills, you guys were by the park shooting people after moving away from Little Israel and one of the members of your group was micspamming cringe Erika and you were all laughing about it. All 3 of you conveniently had Kosher Nostra characters that were all PKed so it seems like you had a grudge against them. Regardless of you being misled by someone else, you guys have an extensive history of notes and bans about RDM and Metagame situations, I would advocate for this appeal to be denied and for you guys to remain banned. I do not believe that 2/3 weeks is long enough time served to really learn from your mistakes. STEAM_0:1:551887511 - POs for Metagaming & MRDM STEAM_0:1:942516962 - POs for Metagaming & MRDM STEAM_0:0:155431577 - POs for RDM

I swear someone needs to create a simplified how to not get your shit ganked Guide

Or counter point, learn like everyone else and roleplay?

Now that prices for drugs and oil change every so often, I think it would be a good idea to add some sort of a button you could press in the Drug/Oil NPC that will tell you how much a baggie or barrel is selling for, so that you know when to start selling your stock.

Make the ticket.

Gambling is bad for you.

The rules are public access are y'all illiterate?

Having your gun off safety and pointed at somebody with clear intent to use it is not an idle threat (especially after your friend dying) Do you think he took it off safety and pointed it because it looked cool? Or he was going to give us a strongly worded message on why that was wrong? Yeah come on don't be retarded, he was going to try and kill us lol.

I understand all that. The point is that, in a situation like that, the guy you killed had the right to make the first move. Just because he was holding a gun with the safety on doesn't automatically mean he was going to try to kill both of you. You never gave him a chance to escalate the situation or do anything at all. You killed him because your friend had just killed his friend, and you assumed he was about to shoot both of you. The problem is that you can't know that for sure. At the moment you killed him, he was an Idle threat, not an Active threat. That's exactly why multiple staff members ruled it as RDM.

Weapon aimed from the POV of the only guy matador shot https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/mU8pSb4fKoI0CpY7l

Bro, he was just explaining the same thing I already said. Tim Burr got unbanned because the staff member who banned him didn't realize he had already been noted by Monaclu for the exact same incident. You didn't get unbanned because it was RDM and you had prior offenses for RDM. You keep messing with people, take this as a lesson!! and stop annoying everyone. bro!!!!! Good luck with your appeal though. I need you back, its boring as hell without your stupid ass around +1

(I bet he didn’t make the support ticket)

They are my Serbian brothers, they have actually messaged me asking me about conflict their 3rd friend Mare said but I wasn't home at that time to respond, after I came home and I found out I called them on Discord and they explained everything that the 3rd guy that was in Kosher lied about a war or conflict idk and when he shoot they shoot too. I can assure you that they won't do such a thing again give them another chance if they do it which I am sure they won't don't ever give them a chance again appealing won't work for them anymore. +1

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

Do you recall what I said on your last appeal(s)

+1 my son

+1 free him

-1 holy retard suggestion, PC still gets abused. Only time PC should be allowed is for operations not patrols. Dets shouldn't be camping ghetto in plain clothes waiting for someone to grab a shipment with a gun on safety

You need to realize is that Garry's Mod is almost a 20 year old game and it doesn't render stuff from a distance that well and just because I don't want to be shooting the pole I back up from it and even if why would I run far left when I could peak from behind the pole

is this not just a nerf for crew deals?

+1 Looks like a solid guy who could do great if he's given a second chance

add npcs that will pay for “favors” of a certain variety, I wanna sling leg on diverge networks

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.

Hey there, So after discussing with other members of UA we have come to the agreement that regardless of the metagame claims provided this will still be denied. The main reasons for this is the amount of witnesses present.let alone other details Firstly you did attempt to mug them in the street which already makes it failmug. Heres a snippet of mugging rule 2 - “You may not mug in a public place, you can, however, pull a weapon on them and bring them to a secluded area to rob them (This can only be done when there is no one else around. EXAMPLE: The victim is alone at night in the middle of an empty street. You initiate a mugging with your firearm and take them to an alleyway so no one stumbles upon the crime. “ In the clips I can count 4 people watching you initiate the mugging, and the Rockefeller npc as well. This goes directly against that , the rules specify - If a mugging violates these rules it is deemed a 'fail mug' and the victim is not subject to a PK if killed. Should the mugger be killed during a fail mug they perpetrated, the handling Administrator may choose to still PK them as a result. To combine it with the full rule on vigilantism it states that its only a pk if you do have a connection to the target. When both of those rules combine it is a pk regardless of the metagame claim. Due to those reasons the pk will stand.

Hey For this pk there are two main reasons why this wont be overturned. The first is like mentioned here a couple of times, the gun was faced away which disengaged the fear rp on the target. This allowed him to respond without fear. However the guy with the gun out who shut the door attempted to shoot at the target, even if he missed as the target backed up moments before it would still trigger fear rp rule 11, which states “ Fearrp no longer applies when you shoot and/or damage the victim, they may retaliate without risk.” For those stated reasons this pk appeal will be denied. Have a good one

Hey, So to clear things up for you, a cop pulling out a firearm is not initiating violence, for police to start the confrontation they must shoot first. Which was not the case here, you shot at the cop first and died meaning your char got pked. There is nothing to overturn here so the pk will remain in place. I would recommend referring to the pk guidelines to brush up on that part a little bit more. Have a good one

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.

I’m on vacation right now so i’m not really able to access much, but he was obviously able to hear me if he shot. I was in no voice chats during the time of those clips so he shot for a reason and it isn’t metagame, the evidence you have are inconclusive and are far from proof of metagame.

You got PKed because of fail mugging. You straight up came up and tried to put restraints on me without saying to put my hands up or anything. I didn't get PKed because you fail mugged me. Are you scamming people does not mean anything and tbh i don't know what you meant by that.

Hey there! I'm the main staff member who was involved with this situation. To start us off, your account was flagged for item transfer and needed manual review before any action would be taken. I was the person who looked further into the logs and investigated the situation. During my review, I noticed a few things. First, your character Dmitriy "Killjoy" Krysha was PK'd on May 31st for a cop shootout. He was removed from the Gopnik account on June 2nd. Within roughly two hours, your new character, Mikalai "Sasha" Vuzkyi was added to that same account. This character was not in Popov, but instead belonged to an allied faction seemingly waiting out the 7 day timer. While on the account, Sasha withdrew, used and sold items that your previous character had helped acquire and manage. Multiple items, such as two Yoon coats, were only ever handled by your two characters. With several other items, even when other people were involved, Killjoy was the last person to handle them before the PK, and Sasha was the next person to withdraw and use/sell them afterward. Your argument that you were only selling clothes for Gopnik does not change the issue. The problem is not the existence of a gopnik account or shared inventory. The issue is that after your character was PK'd, your new character regained access to the same items your previous character helped obtain and then benefited from them. Since you did theese sales, your new character was able to profit from inventory connected to your previous character. The purpose of a PK is to end that character and separate their items, connections, and progress. If a player can immediately return on a new character, regain the same access, and continue using the same resources, that defeats the purpose of the PK system. The first relevant rule is Character Rule 7: "Likewise you may not transfer money or items between any of your characters in anyway. Nor are you allowed to act as the middleman for someone else's item or money transfer. Transferring items or money between two of your characters is not permitted under any circumstance." I am referencing this rule because, regardless of the items being stored in a shared account, the end result was your new character gaining access to and benefiting from items your previous character acquired/handled. The shared account acted as the access point between the two characters. The next relevant rule is Character Rule 9: "You cannot use a second character to assume a role you were just PK'ed/removed from." After Killjoy was removed, Sasha was added back shortly afterward and resumed the same function of being a trader/seller for Gopnik, with the same account access and inventory access. The concern is not simply that both characters sold clothes, but that your new character inherited the same access, duties and resources near instantly after your previous character was removed. In conclusion, the issue is the overall sequence- Killjoy handled/acquired/sold inventory > Killjoy was PK'd > Sasha was added to the same account within hours > Sasha accessed and used/sold the same inventory. Because your new character continued benefiting from resources and a role connected to your PK'd character, this falls under item transfer/role continuation rather than normal use of a company account. For the reasons I listed and explained, the PK was issued from me. Have a good one

Hi The issue here arises from the fact you were not sentenced through the jailor to initiate your jail time before disconnecting. However, you were co-operative with your arrest, and your reason for wanting to get off quickly seems honest. Please ensure that the RP continues when you are next online, and allow an Officer to put you through the jailor NPC.
