Revamping conflict rules

[Jennay]

I think we need to rethink how faction escalations work. Right now, faction RP feels stale, conflict is rare, and High Commands are frustrated. The larger factions that make up much of the player base rarely get action outside of racket events, which only happen every six months. All year it has only been shitty factions doing their meaningless civil wars. 
   I believe a big reason for this is that escalations are treated as something that always lead to a war. Most factions dont want to go to war over minor disrespect, but they still want to be able to retaliate without risking being cooked for fail escalation.
    I think we need a middle ground between doing nothing and starting a war-

My suggestion is to allow minor escalations with valid clips and approval from a regular admin, without requiring an active UA approved war. Examples could include property tagging or trashing, targeted muggings, and potentially firebombings, all with clear restrictions.

Offenses can be: Verbal Disrespect, Physical Disrespect, Muggings, Threats, ect.
With clips of said offenses admins can approve the next step of escalations. 

-Getting kicked out of a restaurant can cause that restaurant to get trashed.

-Verbal disrespect depending on the severity can cause a group beat down.

-Physical disrespect can cause a targeted mugging.

-Failed sit downs can cause fire bombings that wont cost the faction millions of dollars, or raids that don’t cause PKs. 

Small beefs involving property taggings or trashings can move to failed sit downs that can lead to medium escalations (fire bomb, raiding, ect.)
After these conflicts occur and play out whether ending in pending sit downs, or shoot outs leaving people hospitalized the factions are not to engage for a set amount of time. Retaliation windows can only be open for so long. 

To prevent abuse, these escalations should require evidence, have clearly defined limits, and be logged so staff can identify patterns and determine when a larger conflict is justified. This keeps staff involved without requiring UA to handle every minor dispute.

The goal is: let factions have beef, let them respond to it, and let RP develop naturally. We need more opportunities for fun and engaging faction conflicts that do not need to result in  war. I am sure there is holes in my thinking and ways people will abuse that need to be covered but I just think a change is needed and would be great to see for everyone<3

@Akira how about going back and studying instead of being a dirty cockroach on the internet.

@Toast I'm also a soon-to-be computer engineer, so we're still waiting for your fucking diploma or certificate of enrollment. You're nothing but a chronically online, Discord addicted fatass whose greatest academic achievement is spending 16 hours a day arguing with strangers on the internet. You run your mouth like you've got a PhD, yet the only thing you've mastered is being a terminally online, unemployed fucking embarrassment. Take a shower, touch some grass, and produce a single piece of evidence that you've accomplished anything outside of Discord, you absolute fucking clown.

[Akira]

i dont even know which one of your many embarrassing traits i should make fun of first, should i go with you being an obese ugly dude, still using Snapchat in 2026, the fact that even the founder makes fun of your looks, or you being Taka's little dog, getting caught metagaming, losing your staff privileges and leaving every Discord server over it like a little emotional bitch?         @Toast

You can now go cry to people and claim you're being doxxed and harassed you stupid obese retard

That picture is from well over 10 years ago. I haven't used snapchat in probably 7 years or so. If we wanna spread private stuff I've got plenty of that available about the two Turks.

Let's stop the cap and be honest with ourselves, that picture is pretty recent, as its metadata suggests. I wasn't expecting you to take that into account either way, you're too dumb to figure that out.

I literally give out my instagram to people who ask for it and my name is public knowledge as I went live many times in VCs showing my social media. I have 2 state protection orders in my name and own multiple cars equipped with emergency lights. Not that it matters since you and everyone else you know are harmless either way  

The only person who could remotely come close to harming me is @Akira

I understand you're among the less fortunate, I hope you get an actual job and life gets better for you so you don't have to confide in people online and have an actual life outside of a game. The fact that you're still reacting to posts proves how stupid you are.

Passenger princess out here. I do have a life outside outside of Diverge and I do have a job. This is a hobby and something to do in the downtime. I really couldn't care less because it's Gmod. Everyone gets tilted and all that shit. Not sure where you got the impression of anyone wanting to harm you. You live in Turkey, the place where niggas go to get hair transplants, fake teeth and other cosmetic surgeries. That is all your country is known for. I'm not out here trying to have an argument over the internet with two cockroaches. Just carry on editing legal rp documents and denying it.

That was directed at velocity, not you lmao. Literally proving the point that no one on here other than the rejects like you two.
