  1. i agree with this completely, really valid points. i also agree with Dutch when he said “it's on the users who share their discords to keep everything on discord OOC and in the server via Radio's and Phones / VC/Chat in character.“ the potential and idea behind the pager is great, but there are just way more reasons not to update it than to update it and cause metagame. there’s already enough risk using discord because some people may decide not to use it as intended which could have consequences if caught. why add another item or update to an item that would create just another way to break the rules? im sure an important goal of the owner and staff/devs is to keep players coming back. making these kinds of changes to the pager would not help that. i agree with your reason letter B, and maybe other small changes/upgrades too, but nothing more than whats necessary and realistic.
  2. Staff Application In-Game Name(s): Chelsea "Little" Moore , Olivia Stone Steam Name: Poco Steam Profile Link: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198330156409/ Steam ID: STEAM_0:1:184945340 Discord Username: pocoacuffs Age: 21 When did you first join the server: August 31, 2024 Total playtime on our Servers (Do !time in-game): 3d 23hrs (95 hours) Time Zone: US Central How much time can you realistically dedicate to moderating?: 15-20 hours weekly Have you read the rules?: every one 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): i do 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 ------------------------------------------------- What is your motivation/reason for applying?: There are quite a few reasons behind my submission of an application today. The most significant one being that I enjoy helping others. This server was my first, and only, server I've played on gmod. Since joining, the community has been nothing but helpful and kind to me. I personally went through a terrible situation that ended up in the other party being perma banned. In that moment I felt so ashamed, but the community was there for me. They all had my back. I would enjoy an opportunity to give back. I also know the rules like the back of my hand, and it's irritating seeing others abuse them. I've done everything to keep a good reputation in this server, but having a good reputation doesn't give me the authority to tell them to stop what they're doing. Lastly, I'm not sure exactly how long this server has been around, but seeing it hold onto its liveliness and not losing people due to things admins could potentially solve, would be a pretty neat thing to see. That's what I hope for this server - to keep them coming back. Afterall, gaming is supposed to be fun. Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I would just like to preface, I understand that most other applicants will have more time under their belt. My goal of this application is to get my name out there. I want whoever sees this to know that it is my prime goal to become an admin is this server one day. The goal of this application is not to get accepted, but is to advertise my passion and dedication for it. However, I will state that I have practically studied the rules. I know them so well, I could be quizzed and pass with flying colors. I am not applying for the position for the wrong kind of power. With a position like this obviously comes commitment, time, and friendly but also real, unbiased administrative leaders, and that is exactly what I plan to bring to the table. I also am mostly on very late into the night when maybe only one or two admins on so I'll be available to take really late night and early morning tickets. I am active during the day as well. Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): I do not. Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: 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 I am well known within the community. With the 100 active hours I have spent that time talking with so many people and so many groups. I am happy to say I am confident in getting around in the city. At first, I was only a new girl that everyone thought wouldn't stay, and now I'm friends with quite a few members of the community. As mentioned before, this community was there for me when I was going through a rough time, and all I want is to give back. As of late, I have been recognized by my peers for, as one says, "I know you would [do well as an admin] you’re nice to the new people," and by my faction for, "always being approachable and interacting with all." What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: I wouldn't say there is one moment that tops all others just because I have thoroughly enjoyed every moment being in this server, but I will say getting to know everyone has been a blast. Learning how the city works and learning even just the gmod basics has been a journey that I cannot wait to see where it goes to next. There's something new every day, that's why I like it. Have any staff members recommended you? If so, list their names: N/A ------------------------------------------------- Someone RDMs and you are currently off-duty. How do you handle this?: If it is brought to my attention that someone has RDMd another and I am off duty, I would recommend to the player to make a ticket in-game so that active staff can assist properly. If there are no staff online, depending on if I am available, I would happily hop on to assist. 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?: My initial response would be, "Does this person know that is against the rules?" I'd kindly ask if they knew. It is expected that all staff know the rules and follow them, but still, I'd ask politely. I would then guide them to the rules page to review. I would check to see if the person has any notes about this behavior before. I would then bring it to upper administration so they may investigate further if need be. 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?: Evidence is evidence. If there's no notes or history of any kind, I'd likely add a note. If there's history, I may approach it differently. We must all be understanding of one other, but also honest with one another. Usually, things go better for you if you're just honest from the beginning. If my friend is being dishonest, and there is clear evidence, I cannot give them special treatment. I would treat everyone equally and learn from my higher ups by asking questions. It's important to ask if you don't know.

    Gelato's PK appeal

    I didn’t give you guys a written statement or anything. There’s no evidence i confirmed or denied. Because i didn’t.

    Gelato's PK appeal

    right. so im not the reason for the PK. he shot at a cop. i had absolutely nothing to do with that. backstory doesn’t matter.

    Gelato's PK appeal

    exactly. he didnt get PK’d because of the initial shots that you heard (if it was him, idk). He got PK’d because he shot a cop while being detained. So either way, whether i “ratted” or not, he was gonna get detained. He’s the one who decided to shoot at the cops. THATS why he got Pk’d. right?

    Gelato's PK appeal

    Hello. I’m the “rat” you’re speaking about. Thanks for calling me that btw. Anyways, when questioned from the police I was asked to give a written statement to which I denied because I also mentioned that I did not want to be involved at all. But now here we are. Is there proof I confirmed that he’s the one who fired shots? Because you guys are saying I confirmed it but that’s hard to believe seems there’s no proof. You’re asking for a clip, so am I. If there’s proof, then I would say the PK is valid. If not, then why are we even here. Sounds like petty cops just wanting to get someone in trouble.
