Long Answer
Questions proceeded with an asterix require a response of 5 Sentences Minimum.
What is your motivation/reason for applying?:
My Motivation for applying to staff is because of my personal experience of waiting for my ticket to be taken for simple requests. The response time can be so long for something simple that a mod can do especially during late nights on weekdays. I will dedicate myself to being a staff member who is on during times when there are few to be found or active. I wish to help everyone in need who makes or creates a ticket whether it is to report a player or a simple locker combo. I stay up very late most of the time seeing 1 active staff member pulling all the weight, I wish to not only help in-game people but alleviate staff as well who dedicate their energy responding back and forth. *
Why should you be considered over other candidates?: I should be considered over other candidates because I have been playing Diverge Mafia rp on and off for over 2 years. I consider myself to be wanting helpful person to others as well as prevent harm to the rp environment. I recently came back wanting to play as if been influenced by the amount of success this server and community has become over time and that it is now stronger than ever. I ensure to provide assistance to help continue the legacy of Diverge Networks strength and empowerment it has on the gmod community as a staff member.
Do you have any previous staffing experience? (Please list where, what position and how long): I have not, but I am competent and interested in learning how to become a staff member for the sake of the community of Diverge that I have always wanted to be apart.
Have you been banned before on any of our servers? If so, why?: Last I was banned for metagame while doing a pk I understand that I intended on breaking rules as you can not accidently do when metagaming for that I have reformed and it has been months since my last ban on record. (I have been banned 4 times on the time being on this server (2 for rdm, metagaming and 1 for Ltarp) ) My second to most recent ban was at the beginning of the month on February 2023 which was both over a year ago, RDM x3 [b](NOT ON PURPOSE) for a week because I thought I got threatened by 3 guys. I misunderstood the rules of the server, but understand them now. Here is clip: (https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/TrDuSPD5e4fi8/d1337jYq6coY?invite=cr-MSx2U1EsMTQ1MDMyMDkyLA). In this situation I was under the impression that these guys came up to my business threatening to raid our property, thinking they were already told to leave by my employees, therefore I shot them. It turns out it was "miscommunicated" and that they meant that since I have a gun out on my property it would get raided by police. Over the week of being banned a scanned over the Diverge Rules on the website and tried to appeal my ban. I take full responsibility for my actions and the ones that took place. (they were alt principatos btw fucking around on black chars)[/b]
Would you say that you are well known in our community, what's your reputation, what do other members think of you?: As of now, most players who knew me either forgot or don't play anymore and only a handful know that I've recently come back full-time activity-wise.
[b]What is your favourite moment on Diverge so far?: My favorite moment on diverge in history as of now was becoming made member of an Italian crime family. The roleplay was stunningly brilliant being scarred half to death on why I was entering a car being driven around the city stopping at many locations with an unknown family driver. Though scarred I followed through listening and respecting the orders. Lastly we pulled to a townhouse and dragged to a basement with men holding guns out. They place a tarp down and question. Do you know what you have done Mr. Andrew. I reply shakingly since I dedicated 3 months on that character no I do not remember but I respect my death. boom they guns fired. firing above my head. an old guy says congrats you sick fuck you are being made. We leave the townhouse and drive to far warehouse where the ceremony began and that's history. My favorite diverge moment of all time.[/b]

-------------------------------------------------
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 the only staff on and there are no other available staff in the game I will take the ticket, other than that if active staff are currently on it's on them to solve the issue at hand.
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 make sure I clip every interaction that I assume is an abuse of power situation and I report it to UA.
[b]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 treat them the same as any other person; my friendship would never be severed because of a server; after the punishment, I would explain that this is what happens when you break rules. Formerly, I would have issued a ban due to the continual rule violation as appropriate.[/b]

Please understand that once a staff application is posted you are open to receiving either negative or positive critique from the community as well as staff. Your consistent activity on the server will also be monitored and applications can remain open for weeks before any sort of decision is made on them.
