In-Game Name(s): Lieutenant Alexander Price, Leonardo Colombo, Johnson Bonanno Steam Name: Kewl Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199082231349/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:560982810 Discord Username: kxwl Age: 17 When did you first join the server: April 10th, 2023 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 4mo 1w 1d 11h 23m Time Zone: EST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: At least around 2-3 hours a day when I’m not busy, and probably about 1-2 on busy days. (numbers could vary obviously) 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, but I could use a refresher. 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 5 Sentences Minimum. What is your motivation/reason for applying?: My reasons for applying to the staff team again are similar to last time. As shown in my playtime, I’ve spent quite a while on the server in the past two years, racking up over 4 months of playtime. A dedicated staff team that ensures that the rules are being followed is a necessary prerequisite for a server in which everyone can have fun, and I intend on being one of them. I have applied for staff previously in November of 2024, and was accepted. Unfortunately, I had picked the busiest part of the year to finally put that application in, and I wasn’t able to juggle everything I was trying to do at that time for too long. I’ve since gotten a lot more time, some of which I’d like to dedicate to staffing again. Why should you be considered over other candidates?*: I possess a very thorough understanding of the rules and many aspects of the server; a very valuable thing that can assist with staffing. As I stated in my prior application, this thorough understanding is why I have yet to recieve any warnings or bans, as following the rules is something I strive to always be doing. While I have a basic understanding already of how the early stages of being a staff member work, I’m a quick learner and picking up what I have left to learn should be no problem for me. I would also consider myself a very level-headed person, which is a very good quality to have in staffing situations that can be very stressful. I won’t fall for your ragebait! Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): As I stated above, I was a Moderator on Diverge for a very short amount of time. I’m not certain of exactly how long it was, but I’d say it was probably somewhere from a few weeks to a month based on what I recall. I’d need to look back at some things for exact numbers. I had to resign unfortunately due to a long term severe lack of time to dedicate towards staffing; which is no longer an issue. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: No 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 rather well known within the community, and most people who haven’t ever interacted with me would have at least heard of one of my characters. I’ve held high positions on both the law enforcement and criminal side of things. These positions include multiple Lieutenant and supervisor ranks within the PD, and ranks within the Colombo family from associate all the way up to Don. As for my reputation, I’m not going to assume I know what everyone thinks of me, but I would assume that most people wouldn’t think negatively of me, unless they’re still mad about something that happened IC on one of my chars. I won’t pretend that I get along with everyone, but I’m not actively trying to make any enemies on the server lol. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: I said 6/14 last time, but I think I’m going to say defusing bombs back in ESU. That shit was fun. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: N/A ------------------------------------------------- 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?: The first thing I’d do is finish whatever RP scenario I’m currently in, as I can’t just disappear randomly mid rp. After I’m finished with whatever scenario I might be in at that time, I’d swap over to my staff character, and take the ticket that was likely made by then, if no other staff member had gotten to it before myself. If there were any more tickets open I’d do them also while I’m already on my staff character. 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?: Assuming I believe that it was abuse, being wrongful action on purpose, I would immediately notify a member of UA of what I believed was going on, and that I will collect evidence of anything I notice and believe is abuse. I believe that notifying a member of UA early is an important part so that they might be able to find evidence that I would not. 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?: As I said in my last application, I believe it’s important to acknowledge that bias is something subconscious and can be present in decisions even if someone was trying to make a decision in the most unbiased way they possibly could. This being said, if I noticed this ticket was against someone I knew before I took it, I wouldn’t take it unless there was no other way the ticket would be handled. If I took the ticket and then realized it was someone I believe I might have bias towards, I would pass the ticket off to another staff member to prevent any biased decisions from being made. If a scenario were to arise where I had no other options but to take the ticket, I would make the most unbiased decision I can possibly make and send all relevant evidence and information to another staff member for a second opinion whenever I would be able to recieve one. In regards to prior behavior, obviously my opinion of how a member of my faction or a friend of mine is doesn’t mean they can never break a rule, and that is what the staff member handling the ticket is there to determine. There are always the proper means to appeal any decisions made if they are wrongful. In terms of if it would constitute bias or not, I would say that in most situations there would be bias present, even if not on purpose. ---------------------------------------------------------

Ngl I really liked the og townhouses that were at the current home of the mansion and I'd prefer them back over anything else. A worldcorp 2.0 would be cool but I think it would be out of place all the way on the edge of the map like that. I'd think a skyscraper would be more central in the map.

-1 your recent actions show a blatant lack of understanding of basic rules and how normal people act, also I'm looking for info on the colombo hit squads if you could hmu

Hey, Don of the faction in which you were pked out of here. Even though I wasn't the one to write the orders personally, I'll leave a little comment for any reviewing staff to see. As Toast already mentioned, the main reason for your death was due to you leaking sensitive information, about which I had heard multiple reports from quite a few of my guys. Rather straight forward there. In regards to all of the other things you mentioned, there is already prior precedent set for pks about messaging a person to meet up with them or to get online not being against the rules. If I can find the specific appeal in which Canadian made that comment, I'll leave it below in another reply. To say that things were communicated and planned OOC would be a lie. As I'm sure you know, I was also on the radio frequency that my enforcer was on with you when you were "looking for someone", and even spoke to you directly on said radio. (You weren't looking for someone, they were just killing you.) Your death was discussed leading to orders being given with myself and a few members of our command in-game also, and was not handled OOCly. I also find it hilarious that the moment you get pked you go on a schizo posting session inside of the diverge general chat on the discord attempting to leak more totally real information that you heard to who you think the targets are and you even end it with "if anyone needs anymore info lmk". (LOL) Oh and did I mention that was only one of the messages you sent? Anyway, I don't think there's anything else that I need to say in regards to this appeal. RIP Antonio Caleno I guess.

if you took the 5 seconds it takes to read my comment you would see that im actually not mad and just telling you to explain yourself so I can understand your point of view instead doing exactly what you just did over and over in an attempt to discredit the original idea and it's supporters, which in the end just makes you look idiotic

great idea, would def add more rp to the server and be a great implementation with the checks being added it just needs to have a realistic system thats not just an afk money generator

Hey, I'm the one who issued the orders on your character Dave Norton. As stated above, the orders were issued on you for leaving my faction without permission after ghosting us a while back. After I had noticed you on your character no longer under my whitelist and working for the Lucchese Crime Family, I had issued Don's orders for leaving the faction without permission along with ghosting the faction. Despite you disappearing a good amount of time back, as stated above you left the faction last night making these orders within 2 weeks of you leaving and valid. You having "left the family months ago over discord DMs" as Kurt stated isn't relevant as it means nothing in character, and was something that, if it did occur, was unknown to me or any of my command.

In-Game Name(s): Leonardo Colombo, Lieutenant Alexander Price, Doriano Carcano Steam Name: Kewl Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561199082231349/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:560982810 Discord Username: kxwl Age: 16 When did you first join the server: April 10th, 2023 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 3mo 3w 6d 23h 5m Time Zone: EST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 2-3 hours on weekdays, more on the weekends. Weekdays could vary. (More, not less) 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 ------------------------------------------------- Long Answer What is your motivation/reason for applying?: I’ve spent a pretty good amount of time on the server and applying for staff has been something I’ve considered for a good amount of that time. I’ve had lots of fun in my time on the server, and I’ve got a lot more ahead of me. I want to join the staff team to help moderate the server and ensure that the rules are properly followed. I know how frustrating it can be to have your fun ruined by some guy who just bought the game 10 minutes ago and managed to get a gun, or your local crashout who just got demoted from Senior Officer to Officer and decides to start mass rdming, and I want to help ensure that there’s less bad actors on the server. I haven’t been staff before, so I figure that helping out is the best way I can give back to all the people who have made this possible, and try something new at the same time. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I’ve been playing the server for well over a year now, and ensuring that I abide by the rules is something that I’ve been meticulous about; it’s one of the reasons I still to this day have no notes/warnings or bans. Violating the rules can be the difference between a fun RP scenario and complete chaos. That’s the main reason I’ve made sure that I understand and follow them very well. My solid and very thorough understanding of the rules is a quality that is very useful to have before becoming staff, as the main thing I’d need to learn is how to enforce them instead of thoroughly understanding them on top of that. As I stated above in the yes or no questions, I sadly don’t have experience with SAM or Nutscript commands, but I’m a rather quick learner and I could easily pick up on how to use them efficiently to carry out staff duties. I would also say that I’m a rather level-headed person and I rarely, if ever at all, get frustrated or annoyed to an extent that would interfere with my judgement. I believe that’s a necessary quality when dealing with staff sits that can possibly get hostile really quickly. A calm and collected mind is something required to make a proper and appropriate judgement on staff matters. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Unfortunately, I have no previous experience. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: No, I have not. 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 that most people would have heard of me from either my police character or criminal character if they haven’t met me. I’ve spent the majority of my time in both the police and the criminal aspects of the server, and I have occasionally done some legal rp, usually as a private lawyer. Due to the positions I hold/have held, there’s a good chance even those who haven’t met me or heard too much about me have heard of me by one of the nicknames of my characters. I have had my police character, Alexander Price, for a long time and I reached the rank of Sergeant in ESU around the time when I had made my criminal character that I still have today, originally named Leonardo Russo. If you have read my character list already, it’s pretty blatant what faction I joined on that character, and if you know who I am, what I’ve achieved since then. I’ve been a supervisor in every currently existing bureau of the police and currently reside in the Internal Affairs bureau as a Lieutenant. In regards to those who really know me or have interacted with me before, I would say that it’s probably easier to name the people who would think ill of me than those who don’t. In short, I would say that the majority of people have heard of one of my characters before if they haven’t met me, and I would think that I am generally liked by the majority of those who know me outside of my characters. What is your favorite moment on Diverge so far?: 6/14…. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Adam, Morty ------------------------------------------------- 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?: Assuming that the victim already made a ticket, I would first ensure that I’m not in any RP scenarios before dealing with the RDM. After I’m done with any ongoing RP, I would swap to my staff character, properly go on-duty, and take the ticket/deal with the RDM. Of course, if there are any other tickets or issues that need to be addressed by staff, I would do it now before I go back on my other character as to have them dealt with so that people don’t need to wait for an unnecessarily long time and because I wouldn’t be busy with anything else at that moment. 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?: If I truly believed that this staff member’s actions were undoubtedly intentional abuse, I would immediately notify a higher ranking staff member/UA/management of what I believed was occurring. I would specifically say that while I strongly believe the staff member is abusing consistently, I might not currently have substantial proof that is enough for action to be taken against them. Most people would just silently gather evidence and then forward everything as one big report, however I believe that if the proper people are notified right away, evidence might be able to be spotted that wouldn’t have been found otherwise, and an investigation into said staff member’s conduct can be launched easier and sooner, overall giving the abuser less time to do damage. 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?: An important factor to remember in situations like this is that people are inherently biased, even if they aren’t trying to be. Your mind might sway your thinking and make you lean towards a certain decision due to bias without you even realizing it. If a ticket was made against someone within my faction or a friend of mine, I would refrain from taking it, unless absolutely necessary. If I took a ticket and found out that it was against someone who I think I might even possibly have bias towards, I would notify other staff members in the staff chat that I think I shouldn’t handle the issue and arrange for someone else to handle it, or at minimum get a second opinion before handing out any punishments. I would refrain from getting involved in the actual sit if necessary to completely remove any possible bias. If there was a situation where a ticket was made and I believe that I might have a biased opinion, but it’s at a time where I would be the only staff member on for a long time, like 5am or some weird time, I would handle the matter as unbiased as I can. However, just to ensure that the decision I made wasn’t biased, I would send all relevant information and evidence to another staff member higher than or equal in ranking to me, so I can get a second opinion.

Half of them do nothing anyway ur fine

I like the Imperial, they are very accommodating and I always come out with a bunch of free custom clothing. Owners are very nice aswell and they often have self tours and open houses.

Hello! I was the person who issued orders the orders on the character and the Don of the faction you were just PKed out of. PKing you was something I had been discussing with members of my high command for the past few days and after noticing you in the city attempting to sell your custom suit, I had sent one of my enforcers to take you out. Despite your recent conversation regarding you wanting to transfer as you said, this was not the reason you were killed. The orders that were issued on your character reflect this. Might I remind you that upon joining a faction you accept the prompt that states you understand the risks of being in a criminal organization, which you accepted upon joining my faction. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this wasn't the reason we decided on killing you. It just happened to be the conversation you decided to message me about on the say day you hopped on and were noticed putting up advertisements. No hard feelings man!
