Length of ban: Perma. Reason for appeal: Apology Why should you be unbanned?: It was a stupid thing to do, and after waiting for half a year, gmod is really boring without this server lol. I haven't really appreciated how goated it is until now, and if I could be let back in, it'd be great. I remember when I started playing in the summer of 2021, it was heat, still is. Would make a kickass late Christmas present. I miss grinding bricks for the don Also I should talk about my POs, since I think I've got quite a few. All I'm gonna say is that I started playing this server when I had like just turned 14, and for a majority of the time I've played I was a massive antisocial loser lol. I took everything way too seriously, but not seriously enough to care about the rules all that much. I feel like in 4 years of playing you're bound to pick up some POs, but maybe I've got more than the average. Definitely not as much of a knuckledragging moron as I was before. I think by the time I get perma'd, I was jaded with the server, like after I had gotten to mayor I didn't feel like there was much left to do. I don't think I really appreciated how much stuff there is accomplish on Diverge, and after looking back, I think all that complaining about server systems and shit was kinda just wasted time. Diverge has good systems, it's a really satisfying server, I just didn't have the appreciation I do for it now. Which is why I talked about civic in the first place, which went absolutely nowhere lol. I think it'd be sick to play again, and just quit the server eventually on my own terms, rather than being lame and being all apathetic about it. Additional Information (images, videos, etc): N/A

Length of ban: Perma Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Dispute Why should you be unbanned?: I didn't know you could get banned for mentioning Civic in general, maybe a timeout, and afterwards I didn't bother to appeal because I didn't think it was the right time. Since Civic is dead now, though, I wanna come back to Diverge so I can play with my friends again. I've got POs, sure, but those are from years of playing the server and have nothing to do with the ban. That's about it. Additional Information (images, videos, etc): N/A

What server rule or PK rule was violated?: I was standing still and I got PK'd. I wasn't even killed, I was just talking to some dudes and I got char banned. If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: I don't have a video, but here's a screenshot of the PK message.

Again, this clip just proves my point. You can see in the clip that she immediately reloads her gun upon pulling it out, further adding to my point that I believed we were in imminent danger. When she does finish reloading, she immediately begins to run; you cannot tell the difference between a gun on safety and a gun not on safety when someone is running. Even if it was on safety when she was reloading, that doesn't mean anything, because then she immediately sprints around the corner, making me think that she's getting into cover. I turned the corner when she was already halfway down the hill, and again, she was still running when I was shooting. Even if her back is turned, and no matter how far away she is, you still can't make the argument that I knew for sure that she was an idle threat, because I was not aware that her gun was on safety, and nowhere in the rules does it stipulate that how far a person is from you, what direction they are facing, or where they are going contributes to them being an idle threat. And again, you've completely ignored her hypocritical argument. She, and I'd like to reiterate that she admitted this, pulled a gun because she believed we were a threat, which is entirely based on the context that we have had beef, yet she's arguing that this same logic doesn't apply to me and that I can't be given the benefit of the doubt. You refuse to look at any of this from my perspective.

Your Character or Steam Name: Jalopy22222 Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:511374435 Your Discord ID#: motherfucking Reason for ban: ARDM Length of ban: 3 days Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): It wasn't ARDM. Why should you be unbanned?: I was banned for ARDM on the basis that I tried to kill someone when they were an idle threat, this isn't true. Here's the context. Me and two of my friends were driving around, we stopped next to the church so that I could sell some weed to the NPC. Coincidentally, a player who we've had repeated incidents with is standing right there and pulls a gun when we arrive. Thinking that we're about to get shot, I also pull a gun, and she runs around the corner, heading towards Little Italy. I follow, and as she's running down the hill, I fire off a few shots, which I'm not even sure hit her, and then she turns around and stares back at me. I realize that she wasn't gonna do shit, so I stop firing and got outta there. The entire basis of her argument is that she was an idle threat and that it was ARDM because of that. The definition of RDM in the rules themselves is 'randomly killing players', and the rules regarding the difference between an active threat and an idle threat state: 'Users may kill for an active threat but they may not kill for an idle threat'. Neither was the act random, because in the sit that followed she admitted to the fact that we had prior history and that she pulled the gun because she 'didn't want to get mugged', nor was it even a kill, emphasized by the fact that I stopped firing because I realized it would constitute a rule break if I did kill her, and that the whole thing was a misunderstanding. If it was ARDM, then I would've kept firing, because it would've been my intention to just randomly kill a player, but that clearly isn't the case. Her reasoning for pulling a gun is completely hypocritical; it's excusable for her to resort to pulling a weapon when she believes that I intend to mug her, based entirely upon the beef we've had, but when I see this and respond in kind due to the same reasoning, I get in trouble? It's ludicrous. I was given the space of a few seconds to reason whether or not she had the intention of starting a shootout, or just put her gun on safety, which I couldn't even identify because she immediately ran behind a corner. Additional Information (images, videos, etc): I don't have a clip, but no doubt either her or the admin that handled the sit will reply soon enough with the clip she provided, which will prove my points.
