In-Game Name(s): - James "Noir" McGriff [Underboss] • Steam Name: Andy • Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/xsfqnn/ • Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:439522528 • Discord Username: xqkhu • Age: 21 • When did you first join the server: 25 August 2024 • Total playtime on our Servers: 2.162 Hours (2mo 4w 2d 2h 34m) • Time Zone: GMT +3 • How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: Even on days when im busy i can probably still get on and put in few hours of work • 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?: 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?: In my free time i usually spend time on the forum and Diverge Gen. I honestly enjoy helping people and giving advice to new players, i also reached a point where i dont have to constantly grind money anymore so i want to try something different and experience a non faction role. I have been roleplaying on the server for almost 2 years and i really enjoy being part of this community. Over time i became interested in how things work behind the scenes and how staff deal with different situations. That interest is one of the reasons why i want to become a part of the staff team • Why should you be considered over other candidates?: There are three different things that set me apart from the other applicants. First i have a lot of free time that i can dedicate to this role. Second, because of the time zone difference the hours when the server needs staff the most are normal hours for me so i can help cover those dead hours. Lastly i used to be someone who broke a lot of rules and didn't really care but once i realized how much being part of this community meant to me i made an effort to learn them. At this point i'd say ive memorized almost all of the rules. I learned from my past mistakes and because of that experience i believe i know the rules better than most players • Do you have any previous staffing experience?: I've been playing Garry's Mod since around 2016-2017. During that time ive been a staff member on several Turkish servers mostly DarkRP but also servers like HogwartsRP and StarWarsRP. However compared to Diverge ive never held a staff role on a big server or any platform worth mentioning before • Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, I've been banned and received notes multiple times before. Like I mentioned when explaining my motivation reason, i used to be a player who didnt care much about the rules. However over time i learned them and i truly believe ive changed. Its been almost 3 months since my last Staff Application and during that time ive spent around 1,100 hours on the server. Throughout those 1,100 hours i havent committed a single rule violation that required staff intervention or resulted in any punishment • Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: * At this point i believe i am a well known person in the community. If you asked me this question in the past i would have had to admit that my reputation was terrible. However after i started caring more about the server, respecting the rules and changing the way i treated people, i believe many people started seeing me in a better way. I dont think there are many people left who have a negative opinion of me • What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: When i think about my best moments the first thing that comes to mind is participating in Racket War '89 with Le Mob French as part of the core group. We were only 6 people but we managed to finish 7th on the server. Other than that joining Racket War '90 with the Bruno Scarfo family, moving to Supreme Team, being allowed to create my own crew, having 15 people flag up on the first day and eventually becoming HC (Underboss) are some of the moments I value the most.These are easily some of my happiest and best memories which i can mention here on Diverge • Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: DopeAsRoe (Ex-Seasoned Administrator) Boosted (Administrator) Sips (Administrator) Alfe (Administrator) Jennay (Administrator) Crocie (Administrator) Ka1 (Administrator) Wickers (Administrator) Plummet (Moderator) Auxiliary (Moderator) Ender (Moderator) Note: I want to thank everyone who believed I could be a good staff member and allowed me to use their names as references, i really appreciate the support ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- • Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: I don't think it would be the right thing to handle a ticket or complaint involving myself. Just like any other player i would create a ticket and wait for another staff member to handle the situation. I would provide any necessary evidence leave the decision to the staff member and continue the RP • 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?: It kinda depends on the severity of the situation. If its something minor and i dont think they did it intentionally i would simply warn them about it and tell them to be more careful. Howeve, if the situation is serious i would make a Staff Report like any other player, provide the evidence and information i have and let the UA handle the situation • 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?: If a situation like this happens and there is evidence i wouldnt care at all if the person was my friend. I would do my duty and take the necessary actions. However if a complaint was made and i knew this player was capable of doing something like that but there was no evidence, i would seriously warn them and make it clear that if i ever witnessed something like that our friendship would not stop me from giving them the punishment they deserve. I think the most important thing for a staff member is not letting personal feelings affect their decisions. Whether it's a friend or someone you don't like shouldn't matter. I would look at the situation, treat every player fairly and make sure the correct action is taken no matter who it is3 points

Yo I'm ying bao in this situation in the clip there is three of us ying bao me out on the streets coming to ghetto after the callout, Harry Paul Sack is the guy inside the apartment y'all were lockpicking into, and the person that killed you is Harry Ding Dong aka tokyoo. He's been in the server for a little over a year of what I know his name is out there people do know him. Theres no third person peaking he's already actively on third person and before the engagement y'all are not seen until after when he peaked out shooting. so anyways 1. No third person peaking 2. different person giving comms 3. The sig is very tight spread with hip fire 4. The third guy died accidentally when he moved from brown coat to you (hence why he's strafing after killing you expecting the third guy to peak) 5. It's called having a rapid trigger it's not hard to click a gun consistently after pvping for long in the server 6. You got wiped and you do care of the character if you're pulling this just get better at the server man1 point

When you talk about risk, you are missing the risk of the actions surrounding a murder, not just the act of killing itself. "Slow and methodical" is literally the opposite of "quick and low risk" When you murder someone on the street, there is a high risk for witnesses, but your chances of being caught in the act are lower because you spend less time committing the murder. Your chances of being caught after the fact are high because you did not plan it out and wanted it to be quick to reduce your risk of being caught when you committed it. If you premeditate a murder and plan to clean up to the point of leaving no trace, the actions disposing of the body, wiping fingerprints, and cleaning bloodstains are when your chances of being caught in the act increase because you are spending more time committing the crime. Cleaning up after a murder should not be easy because your "reward" for doing a good job is an extremely low chance of ever being caught. You are right, this is MafiaRP. The server is what the players make it. Why would a mafia hitman waste time planning an elaborate murder and cleanup when they can just pop someone on the street and run off? The PK system we have now is significantly more involved than what you might find elsewhere. Sure some of the ideas might be fun or interesting, but they are not going to add some missing element to PKs or change the way people do them like you seem to think. We are pretending to be mobsters on a Half Life 2 mod from 2005. Any amount of realism surrounding PKs we have now should be considered a blessing if you look back and see what the alternative is.1 point

Don't know him all that well but application is pretty solid. Wouldn't hurt to have more mods. +10 points

Yeah, well, for complete retards like this there doesn’t seem to be any pushback from staff and “she” gets to be disruptive and obnoxious while we all deal with the ear rape and bait. I, however, will be having my cronies crack her fucking head open immediately, on sight.0 points

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.0 points

Perma Kills, most of us have done them on a criminal char and basically every cop gets one or 2 and displays it in their description alongside the amount of plea deals they've gotten for white shirts trespassing. But PK's are done in a bunch of ways all with differing amount of risk involved. I think there should be some extra options to PK people but only if you've put in the time and effort to plan ahead, on the other end, I also think there should be punishments for PKing someone quick and easy just off the streets. OPTIONS FOR PLANNING AHEAD Something simple like concrete shoe's would be nice, but you can't buy them, it needs to be something you go out and trade for. While it would probably something a bit more niche in practice, it would be the perfect thing for planning ahead as there's no blood, there's no casings and the body basically cleans itself up. Another option could be placing a sock over your gun, I'm not sure how it could be implemented but it would basically delay when the casings drop to the next time you reload, again this is just kind of a "This would be cool" kinda option. PUNISHMENTS FOR THE QUICK AND DIRTY First of all, forensics should have more ballistics options, as there is a unique print from the rifling of a gun left on a bullet after it is fired. So forensics should be able to take the bullet out of a body and store the ballistics from that round incase they find the gun later, thus being able to close cold murder cases. Next would be if your character is winded (Out of stamina or recovering and unable to run) I think there should be a chance that you drop the casings when you try and pick them up and need to do the whole casings pickup wait again. Overall, most PK's are seemingly done just out on the streets (I know there's a bunch that happen behind closed doors that I don't know about but shush) and they OFTEN just fall under cold cases, never to be solved. As of now, there's more ways to get fucked over if you plan ahead rather than just go out and do it, which seems completely backwards. And before people start saying "This is Mafia RP" I know, but the way things are, it looks more like "Street gang RP."-1 points

He was behind a door f4 peeking before pulling out his gun and shooting. I already stated that it could have been someone else. The sig spread is tight but not that tight. 4 doesn't make sense It's not about how fast he was shooting, it's how consistent the shooting was.-1 points

3 months contain roughly 2,016 hours. This person has spent over 1,100 of those hours on Diverge alone. At that point, it's honestly difficult not to be concerned. This is no longer just a matter of being active or dedicated to a game, it genuinely raises concerns about their mental health and overall well-being. Regardless, I like Andy (most of the times atleast) and he seems to be rather fit for the position. Third time's the charm. +1 velocity Ex Administrator Metagamer Turned Metagame Hunter Metagame Survivor-1 points

Name of Character: Vincent DeCavalcante Character ID: N/A SteamID: STEAM_0:0:201255454 Your Discord ID#: actualsauerkraut9103 Date of PK: 7/29/2026 Reason for PK: Defending someone for lockpicking and got killed in the process. Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: Global Rule 1. I don't mind the character getting PK'd, I would have took this PK on the chin but after reviewing the clip I would like to have some sort of investigation against the player that PK'd me. It could be 100% possible that this player is just and extraordinary PvPer but I don't know this player at all and I've never heard of him until now. I'm suspecting some sort of hacking/cheating due to the following reasons: 1. In the clip it seems that his crosshair (or roughly equal to where the crosshair would be) to lock on to the heads of those that were killed. From the man in the brown jacket that got head tapped, to the man behind me that got headtapped, and then to me, getting headtapped when the bullet went straight past my head (which could have just been a desync issue or something like that). 2. During the PvP, he is talking over the radio and still has extremely precise accuracy. It could have just been someone else speaking over the radio but the callouts that were given just suspect me to believe that it's him speaking. 3. The consistency of the timing between each shot is immaculate. There were no irregular patterns in between each shot. 4. As you can see, the tracer rounds show that the bullet spray is pretty much none. The accuracy with the shots is just so hard to believe that it's legitimate. (edit) 5. He is also abusing third person for this PK. I could be wrong about all of this and he genuinely just might be an amazing PvPer, but reviewing the clip just makes the situation seem a little odd. I don't really know if there's a way to prove any software usage but if this could be looked into I would really appreciate it. If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/nddpugcAMN4ATTsfU?invite=cr-MSx6WTMsMzI5MDE3ODA-2 points
