just "following the rules and doing rp" isn't roleplaying. making your whole character about mugging is not roleplaying, its mugging to make money (your words not mine). Join a faction, work a business, talk to some people, trade items, etc... But revolving your whole "roleplay" around taking precious items from other people? thats not roleplay, you're just playing to either 1. ruin others experiences or 2. get a fast and speedy grind up for some cash. as for the friend not being banned, considering you have 15 bans, i would also preferably ban you over your friend.... this is a mafia roleplay server, not a PVP 100k or Die FiveM server.

no.... garry's mod is very old and even with the best code ever, the server will already be under a massive amount of stress. (from a developer) yes code can be GOOD, but remotely having a server that's interesting needs to take a performance hit once in a while. or you can have zero features with zero lag.... (also im pretty sure diverge runs one of the best possible purchasable VPS machines lol) garrysmod servers are also limited to a certain amount of CPU Cores, once again, its an old game. at most servers can be hyper threaded if i remember but at that point its time to look at the server code and not the hardware

its not always about server location, it could also be server performance. for example if theres a lot of cars out, it'll cause more ping lag naturally, because cars are heavy to run on a server.

didnt read, but personally i just kill em anyways, kinda like giving crack to a monkey adrenaline, high risk no reward

When recruiting people, you might have someone train for you because you're a lazy sack of shit. Sometimes these trainings might not be done properly, yadada, and thats purely the fault of who told you to train right? But what happens in the case of people who don't get invited to the faction discord for example. Crucial step right there, because now you have an un-tracked faction member that can do whatever the fuck they want. Im yapping, heres my proposal. A faction "lock-down" option to whitelisting. Factions may choose to enable or disable this, basically it will not allow anyone to be whitelisted to your faction (staff cannot whitelist TO faction) UNLESS you have C menu recruitment permissions. This will stop the leak of random low level associates/interns from being able to just go "@ whitelist this guy" and causing problems, under the faction whitelist. Maybe I'm just a horrible faction leader idk, but I've caught a bunch of people just blatantly racket abusing recently in my faction (Brown and Sons Co.), yet I cannot do anything about it, other than just unwhitelist them and get staff to note/ban/punish etc.

low playtime for the server and extremely short backstory. i highly recommend looking at the other faction's accepted applications to figure out your footing on some "read between the lines" expectations. oh also.... for a faction i think its common sense to not AI generate it 100%

hours of cooldowns for individual cooldowns per car per player lol if car1 owned by player1 gets scraped then they cannot scrap car2 owned by player1 (obv a cooldown between different players cars too) but they can scrap car1 by player2 an achievable xp thing gotta be added other than strength please

this guy cant read

Not the banning admin, or anyone of importance, but heres my opinion and some numbers. You had set up for a shoot out to occur, it is clear as day in the first clip, otherwise, why would all those people be specifically on that one roof that had a perfect view of the business you were intentionally harassing. I don't know who anyone is on this server, nor do I even know who you are as a character name level. Since joining in september 2022, to march 2025, you've had 0.37 bans per month. (Sounds like a good number right? kind of...) Since your first ban in November 2023, to march 2025, you've had 0.69 bans per month. (Almost doubling, the time between first join and first ban) You have 22 notes and 11 bans (excluding the most recent permaban) with 54.45 DAYS banned and only 38 days, 3 hours playtime. From your "total time experienced" (bans + playtime), you have spent 58.84% of your time banned. Banned time to playtime ratio is at a high x1.43. With your notes and bans being considered now, you were punished nearly 2.06 times per month for every month since your first ban. That is very slightly more than once every 2 weeks you either got a ban or a note, since sept 2023.... that is sad. TLDR: Extensive notes and bans will always lead to a permanent ban, now if its actually permanent, that's for others to decide, there is no bias here, if I was still staff I would've done the exact same thing regardless of who you are, or who you think you are to be able to continue to break the rules without any actual punishment. You need a break from the server to realize what you actually want to do on here, other than break rules consistently.

did you have a twitch

because they all act like idiots on em when they spawn 50, bikes have invisible 4 wheels so theres a thousand times more collisions. again, because this is the only part people will read bikes lag the server because the people driving them are idiots and spawn 50 of them. (same exact thing would happen with cars)

system worked exactly as intended and the ban was warranted. if you ask for a dollar, and someone gives you a dollar, your request was fulfilled. the system was coded to stop someone who is currently banned, from joining on another account, using the same ip address. without breaking garry's mod TOS by writing a 'hwid' and not easily exploitable, this is the simplest way. garry's mod function GetIPAddress is the most identifiable thing that they give developers, unless hey, give us your full legal name, address, hwid, and download this funny exe every time you join the server for server 'security'. doesn't that sound a little crazy? sorry ill stop causing beef, but you are negligent, be happy you're getting unbanned

Younger brother? Your account https://steamcommunity.com/id/Yatonokami/ (STEAM_0:0:168293099) was created 07 Apr 2016 yet 'your younger brother's' account, https://steamcommunity.com/id/ttdfghfgfgfgfgfvfgfvgfgfgfgf/ (STEAM_0:1:82277669) was created 30 Jan 2014. ay but dont worry, im not staff anymore, just be honest next time and it'll get accepted much easier!

mf it gives you notifications every like 15 minutes saying its about to restart, and incrementally makes more when its closer and closer to it im pretty sure....

licenses already exist for this, theres a casino license and a gambling license, if you have a casino, you get both, but you can also NOT have a casino, but get a gambling license to legally run WHATEVER type of gambling you want. people already hosted horse racing through props and machines, but you could do whatever tf u want, poker, dice, etc...

cars requiring players to function probably is gonna be a no-go and i can guarantee that. the problem is that there is no certainty that players will be on to fill up your pumps, and even at that, if it was an npc doing it for you, its just more steps to driving a car.

holy fuck he broke the rep system

proof that you have an illegal class 4, nice cctv location buddy ur done for

literally stole what i said when you said 'add more ways of getting rid of a body' ur a joke shut up

lets keep it that way.

let me steal peoples identities and give a cop the wrong drivers license

You were seen multiple times over multiple days harassing different businesses around the map dropping hi-fi's, disabling public use, and playing extremely loud and irritating music. You also got a recent note, by me, for NITRP/FailRP because you kept saying some one sided ERP shit in advert. You're already on a tight leash, maybe join a faction and do something on the server other than troll. 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.

PET flag taking admin here, I'll start off by saying, you have two POs. Your flags have been revoked before if I remember correctly. From this situation, you were borderline RDM baiting at the Lucchese property on the corner, with all of their cars parked infront I remember you taking out a prop, and just flinging them all, killing one of the guys and knocking out the others.

11 days play time with 28 months between first join and last ban, i dont think you understand how numbers work
