  1. Alright alright point taken, LOL these comments are quite hilarious hahaha
  2. When you die nothing happens other than losing equipment that is equipped - when you die I suggest there be a small fee taken from your wallet ranging from $10-$2500 as an example (value TBC of course). Now of course if it was RDM/VDM and you lose money it may hopefully be comped back and would need work around related to other scenarios not taken into account like. Perhaps now that we got a new system where we have additional stat boosted from playing - on the off chance you are dying ''too frequently'', not only do you lose money but a small chance you lose one of the earned additional stats. Gives more of an incentive to not die and make living more ideal in your situation. And good punishment for those who endeavour on dying regularly like its nothing. What do yall think?
  3. +1. I believe I once saw and handled a "plantable car bomb" once taken from hamir abduls car or something, was told it would need to be played out by staff/GM for a valid PK reason instead of something minor. It was not used, but this is a baller suggestion. But would suck if you go through all that effort and expenses for the car to despawn or for you to catch a case of the RDMs because there were others in the car with the target (ofc unless their deaths were also warranted)
  4. In-Game Name(s): Howard Ronnie Dong / Judge Carbon Mason Steam Name: TroubledGhost Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/Troubledd/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:90789839 Discord Username: rufie. (dont forget the .) Age: 27 When did you first join the server: Winter of 2023 I believe Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 3mo 1w 6d 11h 29m Time Zone: GMT/BST How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: Currently really active so on most of the day - once employed, time dedication will be determined, and hopeful can contribute few hours-many hours most days, more so on the weekends - god willing. 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- willing and keen to learn. 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?: * Mainly because I enjoy this community, the people in it and the server itself and want to do more for the community and server by applying myself and previous staffing experience to further learn and apply on diverge. I wish to become apart of the staff to also help take care of the server, it's rules and the players and believe I can fit into the team as well as being an even more helpful active member of the community knowing most of the people, I want to also be able to assist the team and people in any way shape or form in the role of a staff member and take it to the next level. When i started playing diverge I had about just under 2k hours on gmod.. Now I got 5k hours... I thoroughly enjoy this community, server and the people and want to be able to help, experience a new aspect. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: * I do bring experience with me, having previously staffed in other servers, other games as well as owning some myself. I have developed a positive rapport with a lot of the other active members of the community and understand the fine lines and boundaries related to the rules. I would call my self a peoples person able to deal with situation respectfully and professionally, particularly conflict resolutions. I am someone who is understanding and can be diplomatic, however assertive when required especially in dealing with problems and tickets, able to put biases aside and mitigate them as best as I can and my foot down regardless if they are friends or not- ensuring to conduct my responsibilities correctly and as how they should be conducted. I can dedicate a lot of time and able to communicate clearly and be responsible. Having played on this server for a long while, meeting old players from before Diverge and current ones, I am able to say I can get along with them and use my skills and past experiences to assist in enforcing the rules whilst keeping a good rapport with the people - which I believe allows me to be more effective when dealing with issues. In addition, I have a good foundational understanding of the rules, knowing what to do, when to do it and how to do it if at all permissible. Being friendly and interacting with many other staff members, I would say I have a good relation with some of those on the team and hope to also build even better relations with others too. From my time playing, I am someone who was banned a lot at the start of my time on diverge, however overtime I've put actual intent and motivation to read the rules and play within them. I able to be a team player and not hesitate to reasonably assist or ask for assistance and take my role seriously as there is a huge amount of responsibility riding on us to fulfil our responsibilities which I understand and aim to adhere to. In addition I do play with malicious intent, so I am approachable and ready to assist. I am someone who is a quick learner, being able to learn from mistakes and get better. I am someone who intends to always do right and be just, knowing when to do/say things and when not to do/say things. Having the experience playing on this server, kept up with its developments overtime and people I wish to take my position in the community to the next level and have an opportunity to do better, be better and do more for the server - growing along side with the server and the active members in the community. I'd hope people can sense my potential and desire to be apart of the team and are keen to give me a chance which i do NOT intend to screw up whatsoever. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): Gmod: 1. LuckyDucky Jailbreak Moderator (5 months before it got shut down - 2016), 2.My own DarkRP server as Co-Owner (~4 months before we moved on around 2017), 3. Moderator on another Jailbreak server back in 2014 which i forgot the name of, was moderator for about 3 months before went to college. SCP Secret Laboratory: 1, SCP Lockdown Community Manager/Head Admin ~ 1 year - - 2023/2024. Minecraft: 1. Moderator & Admin old MC server around 2013 around 3 months (Firecraft). 2. Minecraft server owner 2013- Around 2 months (closed it down); 3. CanadiaCraft 2012 - Trial-Mod/Mod before got shutdown; 4. MinecraftTowny 2015 - Admin - 9 months - server closed down. There are many more but i dont remember them :') Now am an idle bee. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Yes, I had quite the extensive history mostly related to RDM (most of them were accidental might I add...anywho kidding aside), RDM POs, one for failRP, exploiting (which were promptly raised as bugs to staff), and an old one for powergame and NITRP if i recall correctly. Quite a few of these bans had unbans issued after appealing as some were mistakes or unjust. There were a few times it was warranted and the long breaks showed me I do want to be involved in the server and not muck about. My most recent ban was 2x RDM including RDM in a sit, after someone rage baiting actually managed to make me rage (rare right?) however since returning we blessed it up and moved on. They laughed at me and taunted me for getting a ban and it got to me. Not proud of it. Made it only worse for myself. And I learnt a lesson that day, not to get rage baited.. 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 am well known in the community. I am known to be a civilian and judge character main. People are aware that I am able to provide them with assistance related to Legal RP as a lawyer/advisor or other RP that involves getting people out of arrests... cleaning things up... being a middle man in sourcing goods, clothing or products... being a test dummy for their new hired... security services... knowledge about other things related to court, law, rp, server rules etc... providing other goods or services whilst maintaining a good rapport and getting paid. In addition people know me for having good and funny spontaneous RP based on whatever is happening around us, whether it is opening up certain shops for clothing/moonshine... doing construction work... or other unique RP scenarios. As well as assisting in their clothes or build designs, giving input etc. As a casual player who can be serious when required, I believe I can be viewed someone who is dependable related to certain situations, particularly by allies. I built rapport, trust and respect with many people and intend to do so with whomever I may. I tend to avoid places that do very serious RP events to not infringe on the RP going on. Those factions and players I am close with I tend to spend more time around them, however when asked to leave or when serious things are going on (drug trades etc) I most certainly oblige. I would say people are aware I know my boundaries and am respectful.. but they are also aware if prompted will fight back. I can be classed as annoying at times, and it is fair dos as sometimes it happens and people would ban me from places, but we eventually kiss and make up afterwards for it is not in my intention to be a nuisance and people know it's more so "harmless" annoyance. All in all I would hope people find me respectful, fun and an interesting person to be around. A few may view me goofy/silly at times (within reasonable grounds of the on going RP and rules of the server). With those I am close with we may goof around between us however it is within the rules and can be humorous. Essentially good times, good laughs and good events. I will state at the start of my time here I was more so disliked than liked, particularly being labelled as a cop baiting minge. But with time and effort I can happily say thank god that things have changed for the better, and people have given me a chance which I have taken and accepted and hopefully returned the favour. They allowed me into their circles - entrusted me with a lot which normal civilians would certainly not be privy too and that they trust me - for I am not a man who intends to break their word or bond. And I hope other active members of the community could attest to this and give me an opportunity to take on this step and entrust me to deal with their issues, which I intend to do with full seriousness, justice and commitment to the rules and quality standards required. What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: Among the many this is one of them... https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/kjUffIkuAWdKpuO6e?invite=cr-MSxLdm4sMTk2MzAwODIx ,,, i can confirm the ticket was eventually concluded. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: Cpt Caboose. Toast. Shards. Dopeasroe. Boosted. Falcon (will update should others recommend too). ------------------------------------------------- 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?: If i am off duty, I will allow on duty staff to collect it. If i notice it wasn't dealt with I shall attempt to communicate with on duty staff and see if they can take it. If they do not handle it or communicate, then I shall switch over and handle the ticket when appropriate in terms of on going RP scenarios. (of course if it serious in that it is an active MRDM situation then i'd switch over immediately and deal with it). 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 record, document and gather evidences to provide to UA. If i know them well I would also talk to them to please chillout and that is wrong (if I dont know them too well I would consider briefly communicate to them to also stop - but depends) ensuring this is also all recorded. Abuse shouldn't be occurring. 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 say this could certainly constitute as 'possible' Bias. Unfortunately bias exists in all that we do whether intentionally or unintentionally and regarding the dealing of bias, I believe a more preventative approach can be ideal, for example I would avoid taking such tickets unless absolutely necessary, and will communicate with other staff who are online and request for them to deal with it to mitigate potential bias ensuring to raise potential conflict of interest/bias to ensure the ticket is dealt with appropriate and justly. If it becomes a case where I must deal with the ticket, then I shall - ensuring my actions are just and appropriate regardless if they are close friends or not ensuring to attempt biases do not influence my decisions.
  5. Ah i see, gotcha thanks for letting me know
  6. yeah however the intention is that Non staff GMs have restrictions such as they dont get full access to guns or rockets etc, just building props that are suitable. Under staff/staff GM supervision ofc.
  7. The addition of the role of non staff game masters. Giving the ability of trusted people who make great events / props be involved in the making of server wide events in the city. Potentially and hopefully adding more events, more fun events and not as reliant on GMs who may or may not run events consistently (which is understandable). They wouldn't require any staff roles and can coordinate with staff/admins to move/bring people if needs be and have them be watched. The only thing they may get is no clip and greater access to restricted props/prop limits. Again, this would be a very strict role and limited to individuals which staff can trust and believe can produce great events/prop events/game modes. This is written from ignorance as, I am sure like most people, I've no idea how things are run or how strict things are behind the scenes etc. Merely writing to give GMs further support and have more fun events ran that are different from the status quo (treasure hunt, PvP based fighting, Defend/Assault the base etc)
