Your Character or Steam Name: Coconut, Dr. Marco bernardi, Callum hazard Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:1:114065865 Your Discord ID#: C.oco Reason for ban: goodbye!! Enjoy fiveM with the others Length of ban: Perma Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Apology Why should you be unbanned? Realistically I know this probably wont be accepted this earlier. Ive been around long enough to know that. Im kind of hoping for a reduced ban. Again presuming this wont be the case. Ive been playing Diverge and mafia RP for over 5-6 years ive seen all come and go. Ive seen many eras of mafia rp. as well as the people. I will hold my hands up and say since I got pkd on my og Bonnano char and even before that ive been very mouthy and have said my piece multiple time. The state of the beef on the server and the constant shitty ooc squabbles all from years ago has got very out of hand from both sides. I had been playing recently to be the guy that would go out and defend my faction in these situations. Rather than be HC and try resolve it with words. The situation today happened because someone took a IC photo of another Lucchese who was taking photos of them. This resulted in everyone coming over and starting a situation outside of the meat market ending in some words being exchanged. I exchanged some words back because vinny had previously said some words against me as well as a bunch of lucchese saying some very horrible words towards me that can effect **IRL** Consciences for any info on those messages u can dm me. This resulted in a sitdown asking for the death of my character and presumably ended there. Until my Ban. I will put my hands up and say that was a very dumb decision to talk back to those issues. I believe my many roles on the server such as, First Deputy Commissioner, Underboss, First Deputy Mayor, Councilman, FBI, Staff was to push for more roleplay especially my most recent run in Crim rp where I believe. I was a advocate for more roleplay on the server by (Although not deemed very nice by most) reporting members for breaking RP as well as creating and coordinating player ran roleplay events. Anyhow Ill accepted all the -1s from everyone but for a guy that has played the server for 5-6 years and has accumulated a total of 1 day and 1 hour ban on his record I would love for the chance to come back in the future and help out Btown. Worst comes to worst I hope the best for BTOWN and Bullets!! +1 String Additional Information (images, videos, etc):

Your Character or Steam Name: Steam Name: Daddy-Skulls | In Char Name: WhiteBoy Phil Your SteamID 76561198359163140 Your Discord ID#: monkey1671 Reason for ban: Fail Mug | Fail Escalation | LQP | POs Length of ban: Never Reason for appeal: dispute Why should you be unbanned? I don't understand on why I was banned. I would like an explanation on why I was banned because I didn't get a sit or anything explaining what happened. Additional Information:

I think it would be an interesting idea to allow felons to carry alternative IDs that appear the same as standard IDs, so they aren’t immediately singled out during cops routine check and it doesn't limit them on whether they can buy guns or not. These IDs would be designed so that regular officers couldn’t easily tell the difference during routine interactions. As well as would allow felons to carry weapons and potentially buy guns, as well as to balance it out its still going to be risky and expensive to get a forgery copy. As well as they can set what they want on it, and the more modifications they want, the more challenging it's going to be to get the forgery copy. Just to have a clean non-felon would be the cheapest forged id to get, but then moving to it, also saying a different name, gun license, whether it has attachment tamp, etc would get more complicated and more challenging to retrieve. However, to make it so cops can catch it, higher-ranking or specially authorized officers (such as corporals+) would have a specific tool, like a specialized device that allows them to verify whether the ID is standard or forged when necessary. This way, identification remains discreet while still giving law enforcement a controlled method of verification, and also gives a chance for felons to carry a gun, etc.

Now we in the 90s, quaaludes started dying out and Ecstasy/MDMA became more popular. So maybe we could swap the drugs over and keep them at same price or slight increase or decrease of price. Also changes things up as Drug Rackets have been the same for a while.

Opening PKs On Cops, witsec changes: Right now, as it stands, there’s no recourse for police. Oftentimes, from what I’ve seen, the DAs office is unable to prosecute officers for purposes of maintaining the peace. IA, is often unwilling, because they think it should be a legal issue, or they’re friends so they get a slap on the wrist. Or sometimes nothing happens at all. And then good cops, often are fired. It’s a crack in the system that we’ve seen for a while, and the voices of the community have gotten larger asking for something to be done. To have some kind of recourse as a criminal. As a criminal, all you can do is watch as detectives, or other officers, blow through your entire organization, and go really overly hard on your organization in order to get whatever victory they have in mind. There’s nothing to be done. Typically, even if you find the detective, they’re placed inside the PD which is unraidable, and the only people willing to risk their job are usually conflict locked from doing so. So, detectives don’t get killed. They don’t usually get fired. They never get prosecuted. Same goes for every bureau, really. But Detectives are the current complaint of the community. What I propose, is finally opening up the window to actually pking cops. We need to loosen the rules surrounding cops being killed, and with that enter into actual RP. Now, there obviously needs to be restrictions, because obviously we want cops to be able to do their jobs and target illegal activities. However, there should be a limit. For instance, an orchestrator sends a UC into your faction. The UC escapes, and gets locked in the PD. You know who is running the operation, it’s some higher ranking detective. You can’t get to the UC, as they’re locked up. Soon, they’ll disappear. Open the door to killing the orchestrator. Require the PD to do some really great maneuvering and have to witsec the orchestrator too. This will provide an ample cooldown, so when a faction gets hit, you’re not in a situation where multiple factions are getting hit at once, because the orchestrator has to disappear. Furthermore, open the window to raids on the PD to kill these people. Obviously, it’s almost impossible to find someone who would be able to let you in, because even if you get let in you’re gonna have to start killing cops and it is considered a raid. I’d say, if HC is being targeted in a faction, allow for MAIN CHARACTERS (verified active players as well), be able to raid the PD when the orchestrator/UC is online in order to pk them. This should be done with UA APPROVAL. Pre-screened individuals who are partaking in this. The risk will lie in this kind of operation. You can kill one operation against your organization, but you naturally open the door to retaliation from the remaining individuals in the Detectives/PD. believe that it’s imperative to outline exactly what would constitute approval of this kind of operation. I’ve designed them such: Expansion of an initial operation (i.e. attempted to gather even more evidence by sending another person in, trying to find ways to seize properties that aren’t directly involved in the crime, trying to harass them, having people constantly overwatching them, etc. Anything that continues to occur after a UC is pulled out, or a case is started. You better get your information all at once, lest you end up at risk as a detective.) Attempt to take all properties. If an organization only has one property, that is the lifeline of the organization. It’s imperative that they’re able to keep that. Lest they have to pay 10m+ to try and get it back, and that usually requires going to daddy faction for a loan, putting them in a predicament. If they have 2 properties, and one is being attempted to be seized, sure. If both, let the raid happen. Worth noting this does NOT include individual rented rooms. Let the detectives blow through those, as they’re just returned pretty quickly. Attempt to harass, further gather evidence blatantly. If your initial operation concludes, i.e. criminal charges are brought, and you go into double dip and it's discovered, or they realize when more charges are added against more people, let the raid happen. Don targeted, second targeted, or more than 2 members of HC. If the don gets charges, let the raid happen. Second in command, let the raid happen. If more than 2 members of general HC are targeted, let the raid happen, let them have their chance to kill them. The investigation intends to seize cash reserves. Specifically cash. If they want to touch the faction funds, that's life changing enough that they may want to take the risk. Let the raid happen. The investigation brings charges against more than 12 people. This is, for a lot of factions, VERY game changing. Some of y'all are struggling. If the investigation, like a warrant wildfire, hits 13 people, let the raid happen. Threats from the police. If someone comes to threaten you to comply and give someone up, let the threat giver be set active and pked. Raid optional. Now, with this in mind, it’s incredibly important to set ground rules for the responsibilities of the cops. If you’re the cop(s) in question, being targeted you must: Log on for 30 minutes a day, at any time of the day. If there’s more than one cop being greenlit for death, they must both be in city at the same exact time, for the same duration You must be inside the PD. Anywhere. You can have as much firepower as possible; but if schedules don't align, you’re going to have to hope you can skate by for that 30 minutes. You can log out at the 30 minute mark, UNLESS there is an active raid into the PD. You must check with staff to see if it is clear for you to leave. If there’s an active raid, you must wait. You may not miss more than one day in a row, WITH UA approval. You’ll be screened to make sure you’re not playing other games. You will be char locked to your PD char. You can’t play any other characters during this time. If you’re the assaulters in question, you will: Be given 1 week to successfully do this. If the case is successful against you, you will be given an infinite window to kill the people involved, unless they get witsec, to which you will have to prove they’re the same person ICly. You must identify the orchestrator. Either by confirmation from police officers who are willing to give you that information, or by figuring it out on your own in a way that UA deems reasonable, accurate and IC. You will be given an infinite amount of raid attempts during that week. But they’ll only be on for a 30 minute window, so you’ll have to wait around ready to suit up. After 1 week, your raid permission ends. You will all be pk active while attempting raids. If you are a ranking member, you will not be able to return into your original role. You will start as an associate. If you are the staff member, you will: Verify all characters Set all characters pk active to the NYPD Oversee all times that they’re online. If they want to be online at 3 am, someone has to be online at 3 am to oversee. Verify ability to leave for the officers (i.e. no raid going on) Verify all information is true, accurate, and IC that leads to PK activity on officer(s). Workarounds to consider: Chances are, if this goes into effect, the PD will try to hide these things. Via working with the DAs office. This should be extended to the DAs office - IF - the individuals who are looking for the orchestrator threaten the ADA/DA/whatever who’s running the case in court to give up the information, and they refuse to after 3 violent and clear threats. (One, if they refuse to log on ever again) (Also worth noting - they don't log on, so an in-game pager will suffice if the faction uses resources in the PD to get their ssns), then allow a pk on that ADA/DA/whatever. Let the prosecutors choose who’s getting witsec’d - the orchestrator or them. See next page for more Altered Cop Rules Make witsec have to take place IC and actually conclude. What do I mean by this? Well, right now the way witsec works is you log on, you’re already in a backroom in the PD, you get your name changed and your faction changed and you immediately log out. I say, make them stay online for 1 hour after a witsec, to allow for individuals to either A. kill them or B. identify them successfully. Furthermore, make them actually leave the PD, and get to a “Safehouse”, like the governors mansion. Then, if they’re bringing driven, their convoy can be intercepted, cops shot, individual identified or kidnapped. Then, they need to stay online for 1 hour after they arrive at the “Safehouse”. What would successful identification look like, in this situation? It would be that an individual(s) gain entry or intercept the convoy, and lay eyes on the guy. If this is achieved, the witsec’d individual cannot be witsec’d again at all. They have to remain that identity and risk death every day.

Add dip tins that can be bought from certain vendors so we can pack a lip. The dip can be spit and would create a unique opportunity to disrespect your adversaries. I think cigarettes and cigars are great but diversifying the means of tobacco ingestion couldn’t do any harm. Pack a lip or be a pussy.

I am overall onside with separating a vanity description from your actual physical description, and ensuring that all players can be described ic-ly for things like legal rp, mug retaliation, etc. However, I feel like the way the descriptions look is not great, and there's maybe a conversation to be had around how realistic some of the info in them is. I don't believe the average person can perfectly guess the height and weight of an individual just from a glance, or even by "taking a closer look" So the two parts of my suggestion are: 1) Simplify the way the descriptions are laid out because I feel like the generic sentence that currently exists is not very good (for reference it is: A gender stands before you at around height and weighing around weight. The have Color hair and Color colored eyes.) I have attached an idea of how to simplify it a bit - I'm sure there's probably a better/more aesthetically appealing middle ground though! 2) Edit physical descriptions to be more vague, rather than just using the word "around" in there. My suggestion for that would be to have set ranges of heights and weights, and possibly even for eye and hair colors - these could be: Short (5'0-5'6)/Average(5'7-6'0)/Tall (6'1-6'6) or similar for heights. For weight it could be Light Build, Medium Build, Large Build - Idk how to distribute that as I don't really use lbs. For hair color it could say Dark or Light - but hair color is generally easy to discern so this one isn't as important. - This actually makes sense roleplay wise as it then relies on players using their actual brain to estimate how tall someone is when describing them to another person, and is something some people will be more experienced and accurate in, just like in real life. Another idea would be to add a limited set of options to use for your characters physical description if you so choose. These could be things like Tattooed, Scarred, Tanned, Pale - things like that. Just to slightly set people apart that bit more. Here's an example, but again I am sure others might think of an even better way to display it.

Hey it's your local legal nerd who wants you to all get arrested. So, currently in the server we only have fully intrusive searches (by legal standards). These searches require probable cause and the searcher gets to see EVERYTHING you have on you. However, there is a lower level of search called a "Terry Frisk." This is essentially when the cops have reasonable suspicion you have committed a crime and could have a weapon, so they 'pat you down' for any apparent arms. What I am proposing is adding Terry Frisks as a function to bridge that gap. The way I'm picturing it is the same way the breathalyzer and EMS prompts are, where you ask to frisk someone then get a /it in return for "you feel the handle of a weapon" or something like that. It wouldn't detect drugs or anything else, it'd just detect the concealed weapon. At that point, it's up to the officer or whoever is frisking the other person on how they act with the knowledge they are armed. It adds more RP and can also apply to criminals frisking someone else for a weapon during a deal or before they're about to whack them. It wouldn't solely help police and the function could be available for other means. Don't just "-1 because police bad." If you have genuine issues or possible adjustments, feel free. Edit: Maybe have the /it clarify if they feel a melee weapon handle or a gun handle. They could see its a melee weapon and disregard, or notice that the man in front of them is strapped and has the potential to put a 9 in their forehead in less than 2 seconds.

+1 unban him wtf. he is a huge part of the community

this guy sold me crack in game once, great RP.

Haven't seen anything that makes this a "Fail Mug". Aswell the claim for Fail Escalation is vague due to the random mugging pattern. Seems that mugging is only allowed as RP if it benifits people within the staff team or of community importance. The claim for lack of RP is crazy consider no one from his host faction was asked or any attempt to deep dive his ties to the community. Seems like lazy staff work. If you mug your guilty of eveything under the sun until you prove otherwise. Redo the mugging rules or do better staff work. (Typed this on the go so aplogies for the grammer)

Fail mug is such a subjective thing and can be construed differently from different people, I know he mugs many factions / anyone seen with "the drip" as the kids say, Ive mugged with this guy for a yeah ish now and we've always jus targeted whoever was muggable If one said faction was more muggable then another for being stupid tha's not on him, He doesn't directly know what faction he's mugging he's jus targeting anyone who is deemed valuable. From my time mugging with him i know he gives quality role play outside of it as well, He's a enforcer in the supreme team so his character is mainly focused on violent roleplay, "sit downs" Collecting debt ect, He also sells, buys and trades items with the community, as well as hosts dinner party's and other roleplay heavy events thru supreme team, H'es risking his own char to mug people with similar risk, Both sides could be PK'd at any time and this is just a bias from what I've seen with the admins as of recent. If one faction is being mugged more then others, Then maybe that faction should tighten up, White boy phil is in the right and if mugging is so bad then maybe it should be removed from the game, IF he choses to run a path of mugging and PK heavy actions then let that reflect in roleplay rather then making it a OOC issue. Free my mans. +1

Question here, did you take the time to look through logs? If you put everyone's faction whom he has mugged into a pie chart, you would see no inconsistencies. "clear intent of only mugging one faction". I don't mug very often, but when I do it is with him. When we mug, we look for people who have the most expensive apparel. I can only speak on my personal experiences with him but when I have gone mugging with him, we only mug on that specific criterion. I am also a member of supreme team, where we do have a different roleplay style to many of the other factions. We are not your traditional mafia, we are a street gang that roleplays as such. I am an honest man, and I do not believe him to be one of the more "serious roleplayers" in the community, and I think you know that to be true as well. Nonetheless, he does roleplay and is an essential member to supreme team. Recently, he has taken a step up and contributed much more to the faction. He has initiated relations with many of the new factions, started multiple crew deals, and participated in many of faction's events/activities. I cannot write down every little thing he has done, but he does much more than "just mug". Hes been an essential member of the faction for over a year, and I know he has held high command positions in many other factions. As I have stated, I can only speak on my personal experiences with him, I do not know what he does alone or with other people. In my personal experience with him, I do not believe he only mugs one faction, or he does nothing but mug. Hopefully, my statements can be taken into account as a quality source, and hopefully this ban can be overturned.

Turn the construction site with World Corp. - World Corp was a beautiful building, and it brought a lot of different rp to the server. Everyone loved World Corp and its a shame that it got burned down. I think the construction site could be a good opportunity to bring back a new and improved World Corp. #bringbackworldcorp

I hate Giacomo Barone. That guy is a chud wop.

wait a sec this was posted 30 minutes before that thing in canada. can someone look into this?

I think it's time to put the development skills into something else. And I have a plan... The first ever "Diverge Networks | HarryPotterRP" This is an extremely niche server idea, we could have factions such as: The Wizards of Silence The Bonanno Crime Family Quiddatch Triad Then we could have ranks such as: Don Wizard The Underdon Wizard Donsigliere Wizard Street Wizard. Learning magic, flying brooms, fucking witches, playing big ass chess. And here's the kicker, IT WOULD BE ON THE MIAMI MAP!!!!!!!! Let's get this second server goin'!

Personally i think it'd be nice to have certain clothes alter your permanent description with values such as If Fat = True / False Could make it so the Fat Clothing makes you appear as a certain weight, as for rp purposes this could be done with literal pillows n shit but it'd add to rp for certain scenarios, and obviously it'd just be a slight value tweak to certain clothings etc. If Glasses = True / False Could hide your Eye colour depending on the types, like sunglasses etc. If Mask = True / False Should hide the option to "Take a closer look" As mentioned prior by oykot On that note i fully agree with the concept of having "Short, Average, Tall" Builds as mentioned by Calink, as it would create not only a more immersive environment but more roleplay for police / detectives, should citizens go about reporting crimes etc. through RP. Since it'd bring about the act of questioning and identifying individual through factors, allowing for a more in depth experience overall

+1 great guy go back a lil bit always brought genuine and great roleplay witch mugging is also apart of sad that everybody cries or complains the second there at the wrong side of the barrel. Would be very upsetting to see monkey not return especially as he just came back.

Mugging so much that you become known for it is kinda wild. So many people can't seem to function if it's not constant gunplay. Smh it would be a shame if roleplay happened on the roleplay server.

When other people attempted to get me out and lockpick the car I got thrown under the car, and couldn't use voice chat or anything.

Hmm this one is odd, Dudes tires are blown out and yeah he's ramming him but wtf he suppose to do when he's pulling sit there and let him kill him? Very valid Imo. And also how the admin going to say 24 hr and then hit a dude with a 10 day. Needs to be reversed.

Do you have some sort of mental retardation

Just do this, screenshot from falloutRP. They just have a locked area of the desc and the rest is free use, this could also be an opening to having permanent damages/features to your character, like you can call an admin to add it and make it say "has a missing finger" or "has a scar on their right eye" for example. I believe the Chinese have a tattoo parlor and it could also be a thing where if they get a tattoo it would make it an identifiable feature on them.

I can understand that I have POs and a semi reputation for mugging but at the same time you don't know anything about me, all you know is what you heard and what you see in my file. I have brought lots and lots of RP to the server over my 3 years of playing. hell, before I got banned, I was running a crew deal, introducing two dif factions to my faction and at the same time I was building dupe for a friend of mine who was planning on starting his own business with using said dupe. I can understand that I mug and that's frowned upon but at the same time why have the feature if you're going to punish people who do it. when the server told me to come back with better RP, I did but you just didn't see it, you only looked at my history and what someone else told you. I apologies for mugging and if I'm allowed back to the server I will definitely ither stop completely or do it on rare occasions. In summary, please reconsider the ban and look into me more and my actions because if you do you will see that I am a lot more than just a mugger. (Btw idk what faction you're referring to but I have mugged more than one faction, sure I may have beef with a specific faction but that doesn't mean I'm only going for them.)

Unfortunately this incident escalated far beyond some lines it seems. Bringing IRL/OOC shit into stuff is equally unecessary and stupid fro. All parties. But.. I feel like this situation/how it was handle by players was more of a symptom of a bigger problem at hand, which does need addressing.. But the fact this guy got permad and made an appeal shows he wants to be here, and frankly he's should be. Sure people hate him or love him, but he's a good lad and is a quality player. I would request the team to sleep on it and give him a reduced sentence from perma. +1

Coke seems to be the only drug that actually benefits you in game. The rest of them have shitty effects that harm you. Make all the different drugs give you a certain buff.
