Your Character or Steam Name: Kyle Smith Your SteamID: 76561198223298300 Your Discord ID#: 177956330550722560 (cheese_masta) Reason for ban: PD Raid Length of ban: 5 Days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): So i made a decision last night that was not the most intelligent, i took 2 guns out of an unlocked cabinet in the pd evidence room on my cadet char when i decided to quit the PD due to issues with management. I was under the assumption because it was an unlocked cabinet that it would be whoever left it unlocked that made a mistake presumably making it a warrant/IC issue for the char. I would not have done it if i realized it was a ban-able offense. Why should you be unbanned?: I've been on this server for over 2 years now if my memory is correct, and this is my first ban ever on Christmas day. I've done a good job of staying out of trouble to this point and feel my track record alone is a testament to my point. Which is i would not have done it had i known it was not an IC issue, I rarely have issues with anyone, i get along with pretty much everybody. For what its worth i am sorry for taking the stuff. I feel being Christmas, being my first ever ban in years of playing, i clearly like being here and wont cause more problems if unbanned. I think I deserve another chance. It is also holidays and i have a few days off of work and it would be nice to be able to play before I've got to go back. I've also seen people with actual records get far less time for doing far worse things repeatedly. Thank you for your time in reading this. Merry Christmas. -Cheese Man Additional Information (images, videos, etc): N/A

Hello diverge family! I am formally applying for a position on your staff team! I have been described on LinkedIn as a "rockstar" and "office superhero". My work experience is mostly people oriented, I was able to strike deals with Afghan villagers for opium. This proves my ability to work with the large British population on this server. I am a disabled veteran, I am a honest god fearing humble man, I am a proud divergian and long term player, I am committed to my role as an elderly black man and I will not break character even when taking tickets. Due to my experience I did not feel it was necessary to use your pre provided prompt, that is for the chumps. I think outside the box that's just the type of guy I am. Thank you for reading and accepting my application.

It would be nice if our characters could come home after a long day of committing crimes or enforcing the law to a family in their townhouse. It makes no sense that they’d just be hanging around their front and trafficking drugs all day, where do gangsters sleep? Family roleplay, more town houses, more props, npc children that will grow up as time goes on, when fully grown it can make money for you but you have to bring it food and items or it will die. Family dinner roleplay, thanksgiving overhaul. Vendors and or factions that can sell equipment such as couches, Gun safes and lock boxes in your town house. Laundry machines, dish washers, ovens, gives female players more realistic roleplay opportunities. Just doing some brainstorming here, hopefully some of this is taken to heart, I just want to see the townhouses utilized more. Think Skyrim hearth fire dlc.

Name of Faction: The Wright Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 7 Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Crime Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): English, (British) Name of Character running the faction: Daniel Fernsby Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): ___alex____#0638 Your SteamID: 76561198829389343 Your Server playtime: 3weeks 2days 7hours (559 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): We aim to be a higher class of faction. Bringing elegance and luxury to the city, tying in with our British heritage. As our main business, we would run a gentleman’s club/lounge. This would be considered a higher class establishment, where a strict dress code would be enforced to uphold our classy appearance. Once established, regular members will have the opportunity to purchase a VIP membership to the club where once a member, they will have the opportunity to enter into exclusive giveaways, enter private auctions for exclusive items, eat and drink for free for life, attend private parties, participate in a gentleman's boxing league and much more. We intend to be more business focused, rather than on bloodshed. We aim to have a well established private society, with an illegal racket running in the background. For our members, we aim to offer a unique and refreshing roleplay experience. Don’t expect the typical stand in front of the door guard that everyone is tired of. We will offer immersive tasks and roleplay for our members to keep them engaged, even from the lowest rank. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): As stated above, we plan to hold private auctions for our "High Roller VIPS". The auctions would start at a much lower price than buying price so there will be a real incentive for people to participate. For faction members we aim to hold weekly "block parties" where faction members and guests can come to mingle. Appreciation and awards will be handed out to top performers of the week. We also want to give new people who come to the faction a more enjoyable time. No more sitting on a door for five years. We aim to have different positions for new members. For example errand runners, bodyguards, drivers, and bartending. One of our biggest goals is to keep new members interested instead of staring into the street senselessly. We plan to have open bar nights where drinks and food are free for anyone. To further iterate on our faction being heavily business based, we intend to build relations with other factions, but in the scenario that someone tries impeding on our business we wont hesitate to show face.

On some real shit fuck you -1 but its the day of gifts so i gift you a +1 for ban appeal. Let this man back in since his socks look like this.

Add a breeding press

Make the camera spit out a polaroid img in your inventory after you take a pic. Would provide real evidence ic without having to tab out to view images.

Your Character or Steam Name: Punisher Your SteamID (Click to retrieve):https://steamcommunity.com/id/123368903457654323577432/ Your Discord ID#:nightwolf4634 Reason for ban: Mass RDM Length of ban: perm Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): apology Why should you be unbanned?: I want to start off with an apology. To anyone I rdmed I am sorry. I was not in the right mindset and I genuinely apologize. All i ask for is a chance and the opportunity to prove myself. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):posted this for my king punisher he was begging to come back

Right now with the recent changelogs, you cannot process a whole inventory/have multiple processed shipments anymore. You must collect your shipment to be able to collect the shipment out of the processor. What a lot of people did before was process a whole inventory and have all the processed shipments sit there until they were done and then they would sell them. However this new update has totally killed processing and now takes even longer to do a full inventory. I'd like to see it reverted back to how it was or just make it so all the shipments combine into one like @DopeAsRoe suggested in staff chat, or even just put a cap on how many shipments there can be at one time.

First off I can understand the thought process of that being an in character issue cuz in reality a trainee could 100% rob the police station if a higher up left something unlocked and be on the run for it. So I don't believe he purposefully did it to break the rules. Secondly some of you seriously responded with some unnecessarily hostile and from what I can tell intentionally aggravating messages in discord. The first dude was being a dick over cheese masta asking if he could get some help because he doesn't think he should be playing gmod on Christmas eve. Which is none of his fucking business when he plays and there's no need to be an asshole about it. Nor is it anyones place to start telling him he's bullshitting or covering up him snapping by saying his mom is sick. he got a reply saying "go spend time with family" (like he can't play gmod cuz it's a holiday...) he then replies saying he's on gmod cuz he cant be with family and y'all start saying he's bullshitting and making excuses? Who the fuck do you think you are that you can be talking to other grown ass men like that? I know Cheese irl and his mother is struggling with her health and y'all are calling him a liar and wonder why he crashed out so hard on you guys. He asked a simple question got a rude reply then stated why he's not spending time with family and then y'all say he's using his sick mom as an excuse for "snapping" when he literally did no such thing. Yall were nothing but disrespectful to him and quite frankly your willingness to jump in and call him a liar and use his sick mom and as ammo against him is sickening and rather infuriating. YOU people need help and YOU went too far way before cheese did. P.S. I dont think you guys really know what snapping is cuz saying "Thanks for being a dick about it" is not what you call "snapping"

THIS GUYS A SCUMBAG! A PD RAID? THATS A MAJOR RULE VIOLATION!! 5 DAYS ISNT ENOUGH PUNISHMENT YOU NEED TO RAISE IT

Although He DID ROB THE PD AS A CADET, I think five days may be a little long. Maybe some holiday cheer and a reduction are due. Would be an awesome Christmas present for Mr. GI Jew the American Hebrew.

I understand the confusion that it was an IC issue and he’s always been a very good addition to the RP in the server great guy he should be unbanned now that he knows he made a mistake +1

Dude adds alot of RP to the server never knew him on this char but knew him on others and rp's great everyone makes mistakes and the only way to learn is having a second chance. +1 for ban appeal

Seen their RP in the townhouse and they got class, seems very Diamond Syndicate to me. Not a bad thing, but not the most original. Better than having carbon copy Italian faction #14. +1

ik you are tryna make a joke about being fat, but you are a retard

People leaving a dozen shipments floating in the air contributes to having more entities spawned in at once which isn't great. It also means in the event of a player/server crash or connection loss the user loses dozens of drugs which they then want compensation for. Other reasons not listed here. If your inventory is full what stops you from using a storage container or running off to sell while another batch is processing? The wait times havent changed at all, just the order in which you do things.

Imagine complaining and running to staff because you got killed in a VIDEO GAME........ what if we were playing cod and everytime you die you email activision staff smh. The whole point of this game is to KILL so why am I getting pulled into staff sits for doing it?

what football club does the wright family support?

sadly there are factions on the server like kosher and the lucchese discord sex family that do things like these. The best thing you can do as a player is to mug them as frequently as possible.

What is your ign?

answer the question.

Your ban appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this ban to be reasonable and/or justified. Ensure you have read our Server Rules.

Every time this gets suggested it gets denied. Kinda gay and cringe that people prefer the broken and unenforceable system instead.

wouldnt have if i had realized it was against the rules (as i stated in the first post) i assumed the slack jawed 2nd grade education having cop that left it unlocked had made a mistake, making it an ic issue. merry christmas

+1 Even with the OOC reasons I think it was an honest mistake regarding the server rule itself a time reduction is at least justified

+1 I believe it was an honest misunderstanding of the rules and his actions were out of ignorance and not malice. He’s a great guy, and adds a lot of value to the server.

I appreciate the feed back and I totally agree with restaurant rp. Our vision goes further than just your average bar, lounge or restaurant. If you'd like to get more info feel free to reach out. I hope to see you in the city and get some good rp going.

+1 don’t know him but he has my approval, merry christmas

When looking at someone, pressing C and then applying any heals, you end up healing yourself and not the person infront. Pls fix

racket events are kinda like the situation with your brother, we never know if either of them will come back after what you did to him.

Being mentally slow and surviving third grade doesn't make you a disabled veteran, why do you always insist on attention seeking in the most random ways possible?

I metagame on every game I play. Why would I not use the most effective tool at my disposal? Such a strange set of rules that we’re held to on here.

+1 seems like great ideas. Ran into these guys a few times it was nothing but solid rp.

In-Game Name(s): Afrim Bajrami, Francezo Capri, Salvatore "The Saint" Corallo, Cesare Genovese, Gennaro Aiello Steam Name: Actual Sauerkraut Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198362776636/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:201255454 Discord Username: sauerkraut9103 Age: 17 When did you first join the server: November 7th 2024 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 1mo, 3w, 6d, 5h, 51m Time Zone: Eastern Standard Time (EST) How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: During weekdays, around 8 hours a day, on weekends, 12-16 hours (I am unemployed) 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 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?: My main motivation for applying is I want to better the server that I play on every day. There are way too many minges that roam around and hardly get punished, this goes the same with long time members of the server, way too many people with make alt characters to go around, talk shit, cause issues, RDM and RDM bait. I've been an active member on this server for over a year now, and the amount of rulebreaks that I have witnessed in my time and they get away with it, it's honestly unbelievable. I also feel like most of the time when a staff member is on, they only want to reach the minimum tickets required for quota and not actually try to help the server that they play on. It's unbelievable how braindead some staff are and completely oblivious to the rules of the server. I feel like I would be able to change that in the little amount I could. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I don't just care about meeting quota every week, I care about bettering Diverge Networks and actually putting in the time and effort to make it a better server to RP on. I show zero bias towards anyone, not my friends, not factions that I play in, I'm my own person. I can also devote a lot of time towards staffing since I don't have a j*b and spend most of my time on Diverge Networks anyways. A lot of time spent when I'm online is sitting around waiting, but that could change. If I become staff I would spend that "useless" time that I almost always have into staffing. I'm extremely passionate about enforcing RP and the rules of the server and I believe I could do so adequately. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Diverge Networks: Moderator (Around one month) Frontier Networks: Administrator (around 3-4 months) Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, Character Abuse - Organized Item Transfer / Metagame / Unapproved Diverge related discord Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: I can't speak for the community, but from what I can tell I'm in the sort of middle range. I'm not extremely well known like Coco, Vinny Lucchese, or Monaclu. But due to some positions I've held and controversial past, I'd say I'm known by many. I wouldn't say I'm 100% respected at all, I've been banned for extreme rulebreaks in the past (which I have learned from and I have improved on, I haven't broken a single rule since then and I'm trying to keep my record clean from there.). Of course, within RP I'd say most of characters are respected and looked up upon, I've mentored associates and I provide lots of help for new members not just in an RP sense, but to understand politics and rules of the server and stuff like that. I've never had a "minge" character before, all of my characters (from what I remember) are for serious roleplaying only, no tomfoolery. In character I'm sensible and dedicated, but out of character I like to help people with understanding the server and how it works, not to be "mingey" and showing the ways of MafiaRP. What is your favorite moment on Diverge so far?: I have 3 moments in mind. #1, my first interaction with gozmouz. I was dealing with a minge while on a cop character and I had to call staff for a force plea, when gozmouz accepted it, he came in and played a God/Jesus character and ultimately settled the situation. It was a super funny experience and great first impressions of Mr. gozmouz. #2, my first ever PK. This was back when the Callaghan Clan was still around, me and 2 other guys were brought to the barge and we had to wait there for a good 10 minutes when the caporegime brought in this associate that hadn't pay kickups in awhile. He gave us the codeword and we all unloaded our clips into him. This moment on the surface isn't all that special but it has sentimental value to me since after that day I was extremely dedicated to MafiaRP, I felt immersed and I felt like I belonged somewhere. 10/10 Roleplay back then and I wish I could experience it again for the first time. #3, another moment when the Callaghan Clan was still around, it was the biggest boxing event that I had ever hosted, me and (my IC best friend at the time) Gregor O'Connor were running a weekly SBC Shamrocks Boxing Championship night. It was the first time I ever ran a boxing event and it was the best one we've had. I don't know what particularly made it so great but about 40-50 people showed up, people from all over. We had around 5 or 7 matches that night and it started my love for boxing and it made me go on the whole "The Cannon" persona. It made me make boxing my characters whole personality and like I've stated previously, I wish I could experience days like this for the first time again. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: N/A ------------------------------------------------- Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: I would take a clip of the situation and make a report to any other staff member that is online. If I am the only staff member available, and I'm not in a Roleplay scenario at the moment, I would switch to my staff character and handle the situation on my own. (I would clip everything from the sit, to the incident that happened and send it to a staff member that holds seniority and get their opinion of everything, like if I handled it correctly and stuff like that.) 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 gather evidence against them like clips and screenshots of how they are abusing. Then I would send everything I have to a member of UA or make a general ticket in the Diverge General and report whatever staff is doing so there. I would not confront them publicly nor directly as that could cause problems and conflict in the future or even during the moment. 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 would not take the ticket immediately, I would wait for another member of staff to take it, I would also make it known in staff chat that their one of my friends or faction members and that I could possibly be biased if I take the ticket. If there is no staff besides me, I would take the ticket and continue with it as professionally as possible and as adequately as possible. This does constitute possible bias even if I don't realize it.

Name of Faction: Kinahan Crime Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): 24+ Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Irish Name of Character running the faction: Christopher "Dapper" Kinahan Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): Goblins12 Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:231340025 Your Server playtime: 2w 14H - I am the "temporary" Don - because the Don's computer was destroyed. To the Don has an additional 1 month 2 week. 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): https://docs.google.com/document/d/17ERUGKLb3udpWeT4jnk_XGnndUrPlhoKA2vJrvxRFRc/edit?usp=sharing Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): In the Kinahan we plan to open a good ol’ Irish Pub called “The Rusty Shamrock”, at least that was the name of the Pub we had back In Dublin. This allows us to not only have a good experience for the citizens of New York as they come through and get a drink, but lets us operate behind the scenes, doing deals, having sit-downs, and having that Irish private experience behind closed doors. Running the day-to-day of the Pub will be nice and time consuming for our Hangaround and lower members. In addition to the Pub and its dealings, The Kinahan also prides Itself on Its Independence, being made up of surviving members of the IRA and families who were victimized by the Orange Order. As such, we don’t tolerate being controlled or bottle-necked by other factions. Compared to your usual “Italian” group, we don’t just sit behind closed doors and complain, we get out there, we get our hands dirty, and most of all we’re not going to be quiet about it. The Kinahans are a group that won’t take shit, and aren’t afraid to receive it. We’ll frequently get our boys together to trash stores owned by people who’ve disrespected us, key their cars, and do everything we can to drive them mad until they’re ready for an ol’ Irish Shootout (aka we’re firebombing ya and lighting you up with AK’s, up the RA). As for event Ideas there are plenty of things we can do for our boys to keep them engaged. Being an Irish faction we can "Receive shipments of weapons” from the IRA, or even hold mini Racket Events (Context: NOT that racket change event you guys had recently) where they encourage members to bring in the most money they can to support our efforts with the IRA. Another type of event we can hold is a good ol’ drinking contest. We can work this into a variety of ways, maybe things like “Fastest while Drunk, Longest police chase while drunk” Etc. At the end of the day, the Kinahan Clan Is a brotherhood that prides Itself on Independence and not taking shit from any group or party, and we’ll do everything to remind our remembers that so long as we have one another, the Kinahan Clan won’t be suppressed or put-out by anyone. Tiocfaidh ár lá - "Our Time Will Come" Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): By the mid-1980s, Dublin was on edge. You could feel it in the air—the city was changing, the streets harder, more desperate. Christy Kinahan wasn’t a stranger to those streets. Raised in the rougher parts of Dublin, Christy wasn’t born into anything but struggle. He’d seen the kind of life most people couldn’t imagine. But it was a life that shaped him. A life where the only way out was to get your hands dirty and never look back. At first, it was small. Christy wasn’t from some big crime family—he was just a man with an eye for an opportunity. When the drugs started hitting Dublin in the '80s, he wasn’t one to shy away from the chance. Hashish, cocaine—it wasn’t glamorous, but it paid. And by ‘86, Christy was already working his way through the supply lines, moving product quietly but steadily. He didn’t need the spotlight. In fact, he avoided it. Christy knew how to keep his head down while other guys were out there making noise. He worked with the old-timers in the city—dock workers, shady business owners, the kinds of people who knew how to get things done under the radar. But by 1989, Christy wasn’t just sticking to Dublin anymore. He’d started making connections outside the city, talking to people who could help him spread his reach. He wasn’t just about the street trade anymore. The Kinahans were starting to grow, quietly, strategically. Money started moving through other businesses—construction firms, bars, shipping docks. It wasn’t the kind of work anyone would ever boast about, but it was the kind that kept the empire alive, building piece by piece. The real shift came when Christy took it international. The early ‘89s were when the game changed. Christy made his move with European and South American cartels, controlling the cocaine flow into Europe.

Your Character or Steam Name: GalleryWalk Your SteamID (Click to retrieve):https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199230740556/ Your Discord ID#: merrymav Reason for ban: RDM/ RDM PO x2/Alting DC Length of ban: Perm Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): apology Why should you be unbanned? Dear Canadian, or whoever this may reach. I am writing to apologize for my behavior on Mafia RP, specifically for minging and engaging in RDM and other weird and loser behavior. I fully accept that the actions I did were clearly broken of server rules and the standard set for this RP. I know I was a minge and I apologize. At the time, I failed to respect the roleplay rules and the class of other players put into keeping a fair experience. I understand that the RDM and disruptive behavior disregard the purpose of the roleplay which could create frustration for both players and mostly staff. I take full responsibility for what I have done and won't be making excuses for them. With the new year I want to take this chance to come back to Mafia RP and reset how I conduct myself in the server. Going forward i am committed to following all server rules and respecting roleplay cases and contributing positively to the community rather than ruining it. I am willing to review the rules again and accept any reasonable consequences you deem necessary. I respect the time and effort the staff team puts into keeping and maintaining the server fairly and I genuinely apologize for adding unnecessary trouble to your workload. I have gave my life to God and have changed from the annoying freshman I was. I am truly a changed person from around a year ago and have been clean. Thank you for taking the time to read this appeal and I hope to come back with improved behavior if given the opportunity. Its been about 8 months Sincerely, Maverick

+1 love the back story ive interacted with these guys numerous times, solid rp and awesome group of guys

+1 Unique ideas. Never seen a faction of this nature. It would be interesting.

This guys is a great person and fun roleplayer I highly respect him and I think he deserves another chance!

Mr. Switch up

I tried this Omerta. I used to prop to get rid of the game breaking cassette and was instantly pulled into a mod sit where I was threatened to get what I paid for stolen from me. The mod got very emotional and was very unprofessional.

I do sometimes wish there was a feature that separates asynchronous items from entering your perception, like toggling "future" shit off so songs don't play and cars look different. Like a censorship filter for immersion breaking/schizo/future shit. But, then again, I always just RP that stuff "seems futuristic" and even if I'm hearing a song "I" like, my character(s) probably won't like it because it's not for the ears of my generation- and the era is not yet appropriate even if it is. Comments like, "maybe people will like stuff like this someday," come to mind. Just make it humorous and roll on because the server needs money.

I just want to be called an FBI agent -Bobby Badge
