Your Character or Steam Name: Kurt The Biggest Steppa Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): 76561199013278969 Your Discord ID#: tobins Reason for ban: OOC in IC Length of ban: 3 Days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): dispute Why should you be unbanned? 3 days is absurd when chat violations warrant a mute as a former staff member, when i was in the sit room the staff said I was previously warned several times (I had just joined the server right before posting the message) which he used to build a fallacy that I am the bad guy in this situation. This is an absurd ban when it should be a mute especially for speaking the truth. Many people were upset by my ban and said I should appeal this to challenge the tyrannical group this pedobait retard surrounded herself with. Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

(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.

The Galician Mob Underground Association mega alliance faction #11

In-Game Name(s): Renato Colombo-Pellegrino, Detective Frank McClaine, Cesidio Cutrona, Beniamino Greco, Vincent Venturi. Steam Name: ASkull Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198016118146/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:27926209 Discord Username: .askull Age: 18 When did you first join the server: around 16 Oct 2022 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 4mo 3w 6d 9h 32m Time Zone: MST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 6 hours or more depending on the day. 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?: Forgot most of the stuff and need to be retrain Its been years since I was staff on a gmod server. 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?: * The reasons why I'm applying is because a lot of people minge late at night or early in the morning due to most staff members sleeping around that time. I normally play till really late at night/ early in the morning compared to most est players due to being 2 hours behind so when its 4 am for me I would still be on when its 6am for est, I also sometimes get home really late into the night from work and up for a decent bit and would hop on during minge hours. I been playing diverge since 2022 and I would like to help out the server in any way I can and make people feel welcome on the server and have a fun time with less minges just trolling around or rdming people because they got nothing better to do. I want to keep up RP in the sever and when the server is high pop I would also be on during that time and would help take tickets when other stuff would normally be busy taking another ticket like admins doing a pk ticket and someone has been waiting for an rdm ticket for 15 minutes. Most of my reasoning didn't change from my last appeal because I still want to apply for that reason after giving it some time since my denial I feel like I would be a better staff member now than back then. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * I was staff on gmod for a Jailbreak and TTT server so I have some experience in dealing with gmod players including the ones that come onto a server to troll and rdm (like bub games). I been playing since 2022 I have had experience on the server and RPing. I feel like I could manage a sit well because I have experience in dealing with customer support IRL and people like teenagers coming and being disrespectful, or straight up annoying as a manager you kind of just get used to it so when dealing with a minge I would be acting like it's a normal person and I wouldn't lose my cool in a sit. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Jail break for 2 months before the server shut down. TTT for 3 months before the server shut down. it was before covid so I don't remember much. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yeah a ton I used to be a minge way back in the day But I matured since then and take the server as serious to the best I'm about to. 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 I'm well known in the community, I been apart of a ton of factions rising in the ranks of them. I was Don Lispy for 2 months. And I been apart of 2 different alliances. Some people may not like me but a decent amount does. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: I have a ton of moments that are my favorite like GM events with faction members and friends. A fun moment for me was being don of a faction for a little bit even with 2 coups going at the end of the day it's apart the RP. This clip is just a fun GM my faction did with another faction that I found fun because it took a little break from grinding to having fun for 30 minutes. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/lSSDX7BqZpDb_vPzN?invite=cr-MSxUaHEsNzkyNzY2ODY&v=33 I found a ton of other gm events fun not just Pvp as gm event's just add something to do and helps force out RP in a way and it's a way for everyone to have fun when not grinding. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: None (Didn't Ask anyone this time) ------------------------------------------------- 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 swap to my staff char and then take the ticket. If for any reason I can't because I'm in a middle of a RP Scenario I would ask if any other staff member could take the ticket for me. I would try to take any ticket I can and help them with the best I can. 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 clips of the staff member abusing his powers and send it to a higher up staff member or make a staff report on him. I would also talk to them before to see if they know if what they were doin was abusing and wrong and try to help them out for the future but if it keeps going on I would report it when fit. 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 unless theres no other staff and DM a higher up or another staff member to be a third person in the ticket and ask for their opinions after sending them both clips. Before I dish out any punishment I would consult with both parties involve and a third party staff member through DMs before concluding anything in the sit while trying to remain unbias as possible and if needed beg another staff member to take it if I'm being bias.

i used to be able to rp as an old man

Name of Faction: The Patel Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5): Eleven Type Of Faction (Family, Triad, Street Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Greek, African American, Irish, etc): Indian Name of Character running the faction: Aarav Patel Your Discord # (ex: gamer#4210): apolloooooooo. Your SteamID: 76561199497272726 Your Server playtime: Ten Days 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): The Patel Family brings a low-violence, family oriented, and cultural based crime RP. You can expect our faction to provide the best curry and Slurpee from 7/12 to bring TRUE diversity to MafiaRP. We are legitimate sales people and are very conservative. Provide examples or event ideas to promote activity within your faction and keep people interested. (Reference your unique RP from the question above): We will offer "Curry Sundays" and have special discounts on our cultural food. Our 7/12 will act as a community center like QuikTrip rather than just a shop. We’ll run small activities like tabs and IOUs, part-time jobs, and weekly specials to create interaction with our beloved NYC. A key feature is the late night snack stop, where after midnight the store becomes a quiet, safe RP space for players to socialize over slurpees and snacks which can build strong relationships and storylines without the need for crime and violence. Organization Backstory (Min. of 250+ Words & any images): The Patel family arrived in New York quietly in the early 1980s as refugees after the India's prime minister Indira Gandhi's death, part of a wave of Gujarati immigrants chasing freedom rather than power. While the other big factions fought for big parts of territory in New York City, the Patels focused on building their entrepreneurship in supply chains, favors, and ultimate credibility with their peers. Over time, people began to rely on the Patels, not out of fear, but the feeling of trust and necessity. Loans/favors were given when banks refused. Jobs appeared when no one else would hire. Problems were solved prudently and the family learned that their way of power doesn't come from crime/violence, but from the dependency of the people. Today, the Patels present themselves as highly accredited business owners embedded heavily in the community. Behind closed doors, they operate through trades, obligations, and balanced relationships with other families. Everyone owes something and the Patels never forget. But they are patient, Very patient. We are humble people who care a lot about our people. Therefore, we will offer customary signing bonus to ensure all of our family is well-taken care of. We will also make sure to give out free food to the community and those who need it and serve as a charity. We will also ensure to practice our primary faith, Hinduism, after any conflict. As well as praising our Lord Krishna after any victory. We really want to focus being community oriented rather than having an individualistic mindset. As Patels, we believe in brotherhood and will die for any one of our trusted members. We believe in true authenticity and building trust with one another. Therefore, if you betray our trust we will not be as patient and will not take this lightly. Due to us believing in family principles we invite everyone with open arms and offer free curry, free deodorant, and other conveniences. We have our "Curry Sunday" which is our time to give back to the community and help each other. Our motto "Debts are remembered longer than insults"

Hi. I am the banning member of staff involved. You were fired from the PD by one of the IA LTs, this is something you can battle in a ticket with the Commissioner, they made a ticket and I took it, changing your name, removing your PD whitelist and giving you a charkick to reset you to make sure you didn't have any firearms/cuffs etc on your person before you were allowed to leave. Then the LT and a few other cops that were present told you that you needed to be searched to make sure you don't have anything on your person that you're not supposed to have. You instantly swapped characters to your other one, Aarav Patel. Then you swapped back to Amir Magomedov and when the cops said you will be arrested if you do not comply with their orders, you said "kill yourself fag" and then swapped characters again.

i really liked when he doxed me and multiple other players of diverge networks after being told to stop multiple times! haha what a silly joke that was right guys #freejmoorsey

Bro keeps going.

suck me off dickwad

They let jmz be staff so why not him aswell +1

Believe Bucket ran a faction before, sure he's do great again Good app, spanish faction that isn't just another cartel is a nice touch Fishing rp sounds awesome +1

+1 BWO

no, just no

Nice rep pal

my ban was related to the discord so when it banned my main steam i thought it wouldn't apply to alts. I'm not the best when it comes to pc stuff, I was just downloading the game and playing it until i was stupid in the discord server.

No! -Sent from my Motorola DynaTAC 8000x

Fuck the 20s. Let's go back to the 1820s and peddle slaves.

Will this bring mards back

Is this bait?

-1 All in all, I think this would run a lot better as a civilian faction rather than randomly adding a crime aspect to it. PRO - Diverse ethnicity CON - Backstory leaves a lot to be desired. Lots of 'this happened' but not enough 'why' - Low playtime. - RP ideas are stale. Don't really see anything new in terms of RP ideas. When it boils down to it, you plan on running a shop. - Your whole faction idea doesn't make sense to me. You're 'low-violence'? to me that just reads like you're going to get bullied by everyone because you won't retaliate. IMO, you may be better creating this faction as a civilian faction and becoming Indian oil barons. - It would be great to see someone successfully run 'IOU's / Loans' but in my experience it doesn't really work. What do you have in place to stop people creating new characters, rocking up and asking for 20k and then them blowing it and getting PK'd by police? - I can honestly see this very quickly becoming a minge faction where people join to use an awful indian accent.

ATTENTION DIVERGE NETWORKS MAFIA ROLEPLAYERS! Yumeko is a pedobait whore on gmod that begs for male attention. Do not let her lie about her age! She's an online loser that takes advantage of young men by lying about her age due to her lack of fatherly love in her life. Do not fall for the deception of this fucking loser. Perma ban this fucking loser pls and thank you.

Askull and I beef occasionally, but he has been around for awhile and is familiar with the rules. +1

+1 i want this guy to take my ticket bwo

+1 I have never met a more prominent and knowledgeable member in this community than askull. When my dog was dying he comforted me through some of my roughest times, he truly has a heart of gold that this server needs in their administration team. Askull shows qualities such as empathy, understanding, attentiveness, and much much more. If i was to ever have to pick a best man for my wedding I can assure you that askull would be standing by me. If i was to ever let anyone hold my child after its birth I can assure you that it would be askull. If i was to ever kill someone i know that askull would answer the call and help me. Please consider this application with the newly found knowledge that Askull has an important impact on this server and its people, he is the future of Diverge... (Below is a real photo of me and askull sharing a brotherly moment)

+1 wish he asked for my wecommendation

+1 would be a good staff member, people have a preconceived notion about ASkull and they shouldn't.

+1 - Wizner

1+ It would be really funny to hear him say Bwo you're getting banned for 20days

Most impressive application; +1. Loved the video LOL

i understand your feelings +1

Edit: make a new item that has the oven reskinned as a grill and make it so you can cook fish you catch and eat it or sell to the guy for slighty more.

Hi. I am the member of staff who banned you, you were being arrested and during the process of your arrest you were doing retarded /me's. I think a few days off would do you some good and maybe you can seek out a doctor in that time.

Also you were going to switch chars during an active rp situation with me in your second clip which you said yourself. So the intention is there just you didn't do it immediately

Yeah, I was being a little bit defensive because I hate how people jump to conclusions. I actually took your feedback well and thanks. Thanks for the critique, Apollo

They are critiques for your application not points to an argument to get you in the server. I personally agree your RP sounds weak and doesnt offer anything different other than "Im Indian". Thats my opinion, and if others share that same first impression dont you wanna try to change that?

-1 bro was just minging in my faction, got pkd, made a new char, and then mugged one of our new hires lol

Hello, I truly understand your response but my faction really wants to signal and try to convert people to the idea of community and brotherhood rather than individualism. In comparison, you also said low playtime, I have enough to understand the game and I know the rules and how to operate. I said low-violence because we won't be messing with anyone just how the Popov's said their claim and also I find it quite absurd how you say just because we don't operate on killing that we won't retaliate. If you read up there I clearly state, "As Patels, we believe in brotherhood and will die for any one of our trusted members. We believe in true authenticity and building trust with one another. Therefore, if you betray our trust we will not be as patient and will not take this lightly" and in other sections too. Also, just like any faction, I will offer 10-20k for 30 minutes of security. It will operate the starting process just how any faction would. Finally, on the bullet where you said "awful indian accent," I think that claim is false because just like any other faction, there would obviously be banter and stereotypes for example, the Jews and their "penny pinching, long nose, and snotty behaviour" or also the Irish and their "a bota o wata." I personally don't believe any of your points are valid besides the backstory which I can argue that we are refugees from the political violence happening at the time. There shouldn't be more of a why then political asylum. Thanks for the feedback, Apollo

Major plus one, love slurpees and the 14 armed elephant ho would be massively motivating

It's a fundamental issue with how the game works. They can't outright act on it but if someone is wanted and they have their f3 they know which properties to look at and good luck convincing staff that's outright meta game Giving out your name shouldn't result in giving out which faction you are a part of. This applies with or without my suggestion just without it being they know which faction you are a part of via tab menu instead of in rp.

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.

I did not permaban you, you were permanently killed.. not banned.
