  1. Name of Faction: The Galician Mob Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 18 Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Crime Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Spanish Origin Name of Character running the faction: Sergio Pérez Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): buckethatbarry Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:429847568 Your Server playtime: 5mo 1w 5d 10h 40m (3,898 Hours) Do you acknowledge and agree to all faction rules as detailed on the server rules page? (Yes/No): Yes Do you acknowledge that your faction discord will be owned by us? (Yes/No): Yes Provide an example of the unique Roleplay your faction will bring to the server / what type of roleplay we can expect from your faction (Images / Videos Preferred) - Overall The Galician Mob is a faction focused on character-driven roleplay. Our faction is based on a real-world group (The Galician Mafia), meaning we will have ties to real-world history. In the 1970s, the Galician Mob began using fishermen to smuggle cigarettes through European borders and into Spain. With boats leaving from the US allowing for a state-based monopoly, the individuals stationed in New York will continue to do what their ancestors did before them, getting cocaine from New York and pushing it back out into the waters under the disguise of fishing. Through the 1980s, the pressure continued to rise on American drug markets and cartels. The Galician Mob continued to utilize these established routes, shifting their focus to more lucrative items such as money laundering and the infiltration of politics, individuals in power, and legal networks. Apparel The faction has the intention to wear a relaxed clothing scheme. We will not force our members to wear certain apparel, opening the door to individual diversity in terms of custom apparel, etc. However, at times we may wear suits during certain roleplay situations. We have no issue with members wearing relaxed clothing as long as it doesn't stray too far from our factions ethnicity. Restaurant We’d like to turn the West Side Drug Store into our restaurant of choice. We have the intention of having the interior altered and changed for our purposes, as our faction has background ties to “fishing,” and we’d like to explore that side of the server in terms of fishing on the docks. Our intentions are angled toward the idea of fishing as a whole, as it ties into our background. Faction Goals Fishing wasn’t good enough for us—working too hard and getting not enough in terms of pay. We have the intention of distributing our racket through the city. Our goals consist of importing and exporting useful items through New York, making money, and possibly being in a position of power within the city. On a side note, we’d like to push out weekly fishing competitions highlighting the fishing side of New York. We aim to provide for our fellow fishermen and push forward the fishing community, whether that be giving out prizes and rewards to those who compete, or having a custom DUP for the area when we go through with it. We would like to smuggle weaponry and illicit substances obtained in New York back to Spain/Mexico for profit. Hiring Process Instead of hiring white shirts off the side of the road, dressing them, and forcing them to work in Don Pez, we plan to make sure they are a suitable fit for the faction—maybe taking them out to the docks for some fishing. Having them prove themselves to our ranking infrastructure, or even putting them to work after a small but necessary screening process. After all, Don Pez is well known for its diversity in food, taste, and employees. In terms of the screening process, we will have our soon-to-be employees out completing small tasks for us, such as making deliveries, handling any outstanding debts we may be owed, and showing not only their worth but their value. We’d like to explore the roleplaying aspect of the server more thoroughly in hopes this creates an even better environment in terms of faction-to-faction talks.

In-Game Name(s): Vincent Colombo-Pellegrino Detective Antonio Alessandro WOIE WONG Angelo Volpe Steam Name: funkeymonkey202 Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199586943261/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:813338766 Discord Username: funkeymonkey202._88126 Age: 16 When did you first join the server: Fri, 21 Feb 2025 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 1mo 2w 6d 2h 48m Time Zone: ptz How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating: 4-8 Hours a days 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: no 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'm on 24/7 and I see people at the middle of the night needing their tickets taken and I wish I could help Them but there's nothing I can really do That's why I'm applying for staff so I can help the community when staff is needed And I want to give back to the community in any way possible Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I'm a fast learner I will take tickets as much as I can possibly can when I'm on Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): n/a Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why: I was banned twice one for mass raiding for a week My other ban was for cop baiting no intent to role play when I first started the server and looking back then I was just mingeing but now I have straightened my act out From the times I was ban I like the role play of the server when it happens Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you: I think I'm well known within the community but I don't know if that's true or not but the people that do know me could vouch for me What is your favorite moment on Diverge so far: My favorite moment ever Was one this GM event was hosted for PVP for 4 hours straight I had a blast Most fun I had on the server in a minute and there was this other time On PD Where this probe and cadet were mad at each other because they wanted The arrest for their first plea deal Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: I don't know if any staff have recommended me ------------------------------------------------- Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: I would get on my staff character wait for someone to make a ticket And when a ticket is made about the person that RDM I would ask for a clip or evidence of it I would check damage logs And give a according punishment 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 take Clips of this staff member abusing perms and sent it to a higher up or make a Staff report ticket But I would ask first if they Acknowledge that they are abusing their perms on accident or on purpose But if they were or not accidental or on purpose I would still send it to a higher up 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: I wouldn't take the ticket but if there's no other stuff on except me I will take the ticket get both stories from each side and watch clips if there's any taken and get a second opinion from another staff member via dm And after I got there second opinion then I will just dishout a fair punishment ---------------------------------------------------------

  3. +1/-1 I can see the idea of where you guys are aiming. But it's only realistic for the first week or so you guys are in the server. Long term I see the faction dying due to no one wanting to continue the fishing docks rp. I also would like another hispanic faction back into the server for the diversity. All-in-all there's better picks in the faction application list right now. I'd say you guys are right in the middle at lke, number 3.

  6. -1 Lackluster application that doesn't really make sense. IMO you had the chance to do something quite unique and kind of flopped it. PRO - I see what you're trying to do, and I'll give props where it's due. - Decent enough RP ideas. Not sure if they'll pan out the way you're expecting though - Decent enough play time. CON - Togna Bologna is a dumb name and I can't take it seriously. - Your backstory is an absolute mess. What are you, a charitable organisation, a cult, a criminal enterprise... your backstory does not explain this at all. There are parts of it that dont make sense, you even spelled your characters name wrong at one point. You also mention 'the home' 11 times and 'the hand' 7 times - The cult idea is entirely lost. A cult isn't a brotherhood of individuals trying to make a city better, it's a fanatical group which usually has an eccentric leader who controls the people below him, you are not describing this in your backstory. - If you're a cult I want to know outright what your rank is, Supreme Leader, Grand Master? this should be absolutely pivotal to your backstory, and how your character rose to that rank and or gave himself the rank. - I hate this idea of 'we're going to clean up the city by locking up buildings and making sure places are protected, people will consider you a nuisance. - You call yourself the 'Hand of Paimon' but make no link to what 'Paimon' is? IMO (take these suggestions with a pinch of salt.) - You should really play into the cult idea and really go full hog with it, become fanatics who believe some mad shit, like you (the faction leader) are an actual descendent of God, and the people in your factions are disciples. - Whilst I said I hate the 'clean up the city' stuff, I do understand why you included it... IMO you should flip that too and instead of cleaning up the city, be the ones that are causing the damage. 'The Lucchese's are none-believers... we will show them no mercy'. There is no fear in the city anymore, a full blown heel faction of cultists could change that

  7. With the way things are in the server, you cannot be totally neutral, hence why i'm saying that people won't trust you for that. There's factions that are currently using a retainer system, trust me man it's not unique. The whole "working security for 20 minutes" nowadays is literally just shitpost slander dawg, almost nobody does this anymore cause it's in the interest for factions to make the experience interesting for the new guys. The "slow-burn" rp you're referencing is just how things are in the majority. There is a minority of cases where somebody will get a higher position due to external circumstances but that's a rare occurrence. You can't not have "slow-burn" rp for the pure fact that you gotta trust the person before giving him a bigger cut of the pie so that's literally just how most factions operate. That being said, props for taking all this in and being involved with it. The majority of the server(besides the retarded trolls) are aching for some diversity. It's just gotta be thought out and done the right way or else it's just gonna be another faction that disappears after 3 months.

  11. -1 This application seems to be labeled as a cult but I see nothing cult-like about it. Seems to me that this is just another crime family with a cult mask on. Where do the cult aspects show in any of the documents in your application? I don't see any ideology, worshipped supernatural being, or any activities that would even be comparable to that of what comes to mind from the word "cult". Murder for hire and all these other things aren't new, or really cult exclusive. I've seen applications for "cult" factions on these forums before and they usually end up either getting denied or modified into a crime family. While it's certainly abnormal in regards to the organization, I think this would need more cult-like feel in it for it to be something I'd say has a chance of doing good. Also, I've looked at all your documents and I still have no idea what the name "Paimon" refers to or has to do with anything here. Is that your godly figure? Is that a name you made up because it sounded cool? I've even used ctrl + f to find all instances of the word in all of your documents and it only exists within the title of the organization. Regardless of if it is something you created yourself, or something that already exists, it would be useful to tie that in to activities you have planned out and explain how your "Cult" revolves around that figure. TLDR: This application reads like if the dark brotherhood didn't care about Sithis anymore but kept the name and became a mafia; -1. If you want to start a cult, develop your ideology further and make it feel like one, not just named like one.

  12. +1 I'd like to at least see how the faction will integrate the 'cult' aspect within the city. It could introduce a different type of rp than just running bricks for the don.

  13. +1 (this was a -1 until I saw the backstory link at the end lmao) Good application IMO, I really hope you guys utilize boats and include the sea/docks as part of your 'turf', that would be incredibly interesting. PRO - Diverse - Great play time - Big push on better RP - Some good ideas, and you're actively taking a stand against standing around security RP, which is a massive + for me. - Enjoyed the backstory and the real RP images complemented it. CON - Choosing your racket as cocaine, whilst that may be correct in the actual Galician Mob - it's not a guarantee in DV.
