Hello Garnet Gaming members, Following a bunch of messages in regards to the current situation, and although I prefer to handle things privately, in the effort of being transparent with you all, I figured it'd be best I make a proper thread to address our current situation, following the departure of Proggy, who held a management role within our community and was a long time member of our community. As of 8/10/2023, Proggy is no longer a part of our community or the overall management team. With that being said, just to clarify he is not banned or prohibited from re-joining our community and there is no bad blood. Proggy made the decision to depart from the community following a discussion about the state of our Rust community, and after 4 years of working together, I wish him nothing but the best in his future endeavors. He is a fantastic individual who knew how to make those around him feel at ease. Being that many people had asked me about the reason for having made the decision of cutting the ties with Proggy as a member of our Rust roster, the reason is performance and finances. Our Rust community is a very expensive endeavor, and Proggy got delegated the task of their management as of this year - that was meant to be his sole role within the community - and anything more was done at the discretion of his own due to loving our DarkRP server. For full transparency - our goal in mind was to reboot said Rust servers, bring them up to standard, and allow for the purchase of packages within our store, allowing proggy to receive 100% of the profits they generate. Unfortunately this was met with no success (not solely at a fault of his own, but many external factors) - and after months and months of pushing back deadlines of when we will shut down Rust, this past weekend was a boiling point as our Rust servers hit a bottom low and became a COMPLETE liability. Throughout the recent decline of the Rust Community, I reached out to Proggy to renegotiate his terms (to his favor) on several occasions as I felt they were not fair with how much time he insisted on putting into the server; as well as the fact I was not seeing Rust do well and was trying to find ways to provide him a livable wage, but unfortunately these attempts felt very one-sided on my end, and he would either decline or never following through with re-negotiations. To transparently discuss the loss amount, it is north of $20,000. With that being said, no plan was determined for opening another server within a new game to dive into in order to create supplemental income for Proggy at this time, and it didn't seem like something that was worth exploring at the very last moment for either sides of us due to the turmoil. In regards to Rust, as this was a revolving question as well and understandably so since we have hundreds of members there, i'm trying to determine who would be the most experienced person to be hired for the task of managing our Rust community with identical conditions as a one last try type of deal, before closing off Rust entirely. I have had a DOZEN private applications upon Proggy's departure, but unfortunately, and as cheesy as this may sound, i'm currently re-evaluating alot of responsibilities I do and do not want to hold - because besides holding a high degree of a financial responsibility over another individual, I feel like the type of bond I had with Proggy isn't at all replaceable, and things will not feel the same. There are some external factors to this that have made life immensely stressful, consisting of some topics I hadn't brought up publicly, like me and my partner's miscarriage, my recent hospital visits, and at this point of time, going through a drastic change is anything but welcome - but i'll have to figure it out as the owner of this community. Thank you for reading through and being understanding, I hope many of you will stick around to see the changes the community will be going through as we focus on growing the playerbase and focusing on a more player-centric and community involved attitude. Because for the time being, I'll be dousing myself in server-related tasks to do anything but have to think through this ongoing situation

I wish all you Garfield Gamers happy holidays; whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah, or nothing at all! I hope you take this time to relax at home, with a break from everyday work or school. Our management team extends their warmest wishes for a joyful holiday season to all you players who have supported us over the years. This brings me onto 4 fucking phenomenal things to announce. StarwarsRP We have managed to have the server online for exactly 1 year today, I would love to have a big celebration, but realistically, everybody will be celebrating the holidays with their family - and I don't want anybody to feel obligated to sit infront of their monitors this holiday season, so I will reserve this huge celebration to a later date (early January). Our server is BY A HUGE margin the most content-filled server in the category, over-developed to even make me question if we should make our own stand-alone game in a different engine, with everything we've got going This trend will NOT slow down anytime soon, instead, our server will continue to get new items for our character customization system, more optimizations, and new features, such as MMO-style quests! DarkRP What can I say? we got rid of MANY problematic people who abused our community to no-end over the past few months - we have effectively been cleansing the server of bad individuals. For nearly 2 years, we had a server sitting at 128/128 (which is very impressive) however, atleast 40 of those would be just 5 individuals and their alts, destroying our server's economy and selling their in-game currency for Crypto/Venmo/PayPal cash. This tore into our community, and previous leaderships actively encouraged this behavior to continue, because that was their easiest way of demonstrating they did a good job at maintaining high numbers for our population - unfortunately while doing 0 to prevent this behavior from being exploited via selling this cash. Well, now that these individuals are banned, and our new server leadership consists of @Derpza and @Merk, I have found that it is far more fun to play with 60-90 GENUINELY active members who are doing things other than mass-printer farming within their base walls. Our server is one of the most stable servers in the category at this point in time, I am actively fixing exploits with the help of our managers, you can get on knowing there's 128 players online, and yet still get 300/300FPS . This server has been a staple of ours, and will be celebrating its 10th year anniversary in about 8 months! There is a potential DarkRP 2.0 server coming up sometimes soon, which will blow any other DarkRP server in the category out of the water, with an extreme amount of custom content if you want to know what it'll look like, join our StarwarsRP server to get an idea. (HINT: Character customization) MilitaryRP With the help of @Ozzy (who as it turns out will unfortunately be leaving our community to carry on with life next month), I have decided to bring the server back on its feet, with the most unique content that anybody has seen in the MilitaryRP category - genuinely. I am so thrilled to announce this significant leap forward; not only branching into the "Nutscript" gamemode and away from DarkRP, but also the sheer amount of content we will provide. This much-anticipated revamp of our old server is anticipated to have an open-beta shortly. We will no longer have 2 sides just fighting a glorified TDM match that spans 30 minutes, but we will also have civilians running around taking care of their everyday life, fishing, manufacturing drugs, delivering main, and many more tasks... This attempt would have not been possibly without @AlexConway who stepped in when I started feeling overwhelmed with Ozzy's inevitable departure, and started questioning whether the server should even be brought back. Conway has shown an INSANE commitment and visions for what the server should and could be, bringing a breath of fresh air to the team,leading me to.. (and I can't believe I'm writing this) Welcoming Our community's Second-in-Command, @AlexConway This little rodent has been on-and-off my best friend in the community for a few years, we have gone through more heartbreaks and periods of blocking eachother than even your parents - and it's hard to believe we're here . Just 8 months ago if you told me that Conway will one day be the second highest figure in this community, i'd tell you to lay off the pipe (and that I can't believe he's unbanned in the first place) but here we are today. Conway has been a member of our community for a VERY long time (I believe 7 years at this point) always showing an interest in growing the community as a whole, and expanding. Since rekindling our friendship last year, and after nearly a full year of his FULL dedication to StarwarsRP by heavy restructures and bringing it up a notch in terms of content/management/overall professionalism, I'm for once finding that I'm able to take a step back from my PC when needed, while resting assured that everything is in working order because Conway has it handled. Not only this, but no matter what time of the day it is, if I post "HEY GUYS, I NEED HELP" across the DarkRP, Military, and StarwarsRP discords, 9/10 Conway is the first one to message back saying "What do you need?" - even when he's at work. This has been the case since his return, and it's been SUCH A NICE CHANGE. Alex, your contributions have been on a complete different level from any previous leadership we've had, you spend the extra time training people to take positions as you see fit (rather than trying to assume full control of a given server) and this brand new approach has paid tons of dividends, as our SWRP and DRP servers have an incredibly friendly team of staff with minimal problems (as compared to the past) knowing they can reach out to myself and you for a second opinion as needed. In addition to this, using you for second opinions has always proved to be the right approach, as atleast in my scenario, you seem to know exactly how to tweak something I worked on to make it look that much nicer - (I assume this is because you're homosexual), but regardless, thank you for all the countless hours spent moving a UI 3 pixels over, just so it's "PERFECTLY ALIGNED". I'm looking forward to our future working on the community together (half homo), and hopefully soon, branching into FiveM . On some more personal news, pertaining to what I had written about Conway above, I finally have enough freedom from the server to where after 4 years and a pandemic, I will be returning back to college in this upcoming Summer semester to hopefully become a Physical Therapist (fingers crossed I get accepted). I also picked up a part-time job where I teach guitar some days of the week, which will be such a nice change, reclaiming my life after 10 years of nearly consistent 70-100 hours a week of staring at a PC screen, working on Garry's Mod and Rust servers. I hope this new year proves to be just as nice for all of you, and once again, thank you for supporting our now almost 10 years old community Warmest Regards, Nutter

Garfield Gamers, I wanted to take a second to let you all know that i'm planning on making some changes for the betterment of my mental health. As many of you know, I've been working tirelessly for almost two years to provide MULTIPLE weekly updates on our servers, and while I've received some incredibly kind and grateful feedback from many of you, unfortunately these have DRASTICALLY subsided as players had gotten used and feeling entitled to these unrealistic standards, and I've received an overwhelming amount of complaints and criticism, despite the fact that I work harder than any other server owner within Garry's Mod (WOULD LOVE TO BE PROVEN WRONG ON THAT NOTE). As a side note: We presently do not outsource work due to low standards, and our server update subforum has more content in a week than some other well-known communities receive in a full year. Despite this and regardless of my efforts to communicate with some of you all and let you know that the server is a work in progress, some players are still incredibly quick to yell and berate myself for things not being absolutely perfect from the get-go (let alone something as simple as restarting the server at inconvenient times to one of 50 players), and I feel like I've been spreading myself too thin trying to appease the community by releasing so many of these full-content updates and code-base maintenance for this 10 years old game. Adding insult to injury, it's become abundantly clear that between StarwarsRP and MilitaryRP (PRIMARILY MILITARYRP) our playerbase had become so incredibly tired and bored of the administrative team not completing their roles, that they rely on ME to carry the server through updates, while the teams are doing nearly nothing to facilitate roleplay and players to enjoy the community - because in the case of MilitaryRP, GMs are as good as useless, and the management team has no pushed for any notable changes in over a year - until recently with our new wave of Admins - which we are still waiting to see their full potential in management roles. This is not a position I wish to be in, it's far too much pressure, and I heavily weigh shutting things down at times. With all the negative being said, The changes coming moving forward should not be all that bad. As opposed to providing weekly or bi-weekly updates (biweekly as in once or twice a week), I will instead be providing monthly or bi-monthly updates (once every month or two), with a similar level of content to what you see in today's update. I hope that this will allow me to continue to improve the community while also taking a step back to ensure that I do not get more and more bitter to the point of nearly giving up the community, due to a severe lack of appreciation. Thank you for your understanding, and I look forward to continuing to work with you all in the future. I apologize if this post came out of the blue. Vehicles A spawner for vehicles has been added to each respective base, being that this map is TINY and may lead to FPS degregations, I maay choose to severely limit the spawnrate of vehicles at a later time Duel System Reinstated for our new map Foxtrot, including the Bunker and Killhouse arenas! A duel NPC has been spawned in each respective faction's base, and the code for Duels has been modified somewhat to disallow on-going arenas from being used for a period of 60 seconds from the last duel's completion. Class Changes The Notorious Goat Spawnpoints set for this class Taliban Army : Sharpshooter corrected slot count to 4 Weapon Changes Defibrilators Given the Defib weapon a total of 3 uses Once the 3 uses are up, the defibrillator will drop to the ground Additionally, a 20 second cooldown between defib attempts has been added RPK-74 Extended magazine size has been turned up to 60 from 45 Missions System Last seen active on the server in 2021, despite being a very effective solution for downtime on the server. Current mission modes include Kidnapping, Raids, Intel raiding, Base Maintanence (Cleanups), and Assassinations. As time goes on, i'd love to correct any issues that may or may not be present, as I know the system isn't perfect. but I feel strongly that I could patch any bugs associated with it! Also, raids are to be called directly from the missions NPC moving forward! Example of Intel raid: Miscellaneous & Bugs Anti Headglitching Rewrote the addon that I last worked on in 2021 to fix headglitching on Omega, hopefully the new iteration is more robust and works more effectively The Crouch Jumping Catalyst After almost a decade of dumb rules to prevent a default, yet broken Garry's Mod mechanic, I have decided to give it a unique solution. Players who are crouch jumping will have their playermodel's hitbox grow in size to encompass a larger area, allowing for players to be hit, no matter how large an attempt is made to break their playermodels Vehicle Driver/Passenger Behavior Players inside of vehicles will no longer take damage from gunshots, however, explosive damage from grenades and RPGs are doubled, meaning, an indirect rocket hit that'd do 60 damage, will now deal 120 damage to all those in the vehicle Prone Mod Removed for an 18th time Spawn Protection Re-enabled for a 13th map revision HUD Attempted to fix issue under whcih some players' names would not draw on your screen Recruit Spawn Your 1st annual "Boost Taliban" day starts today, all recruits will begin spawning in as AFG Recruits as opposed to spawning in spawn room

Going to keep it simple, I've been extremely busy recently to the point I can't really get on the server or even discord that much anymore which has resulted in a mess as the leadership team relied on my contact to tell them what to do so I've pushed them to start leading themself which I hope to see if I do return. I've decided to resign completely from the community with the possibility of returning if I become less busy and want to but that is looking unlikely. It's been great from first joining 8 years ago being staff multiple times throughout that time and obviously this time where I've been able to climb the ranks to the top. Thanks to everyone who supports the server and those that have supported me. Good luck to everyone else on what you're working on in life, feel free to message me on discord about anything

In-game name: Tdizz SteamID (https://steamid.io/): Staff members in-game name: Lala Lady Staff members SteamID (/id (name): STEAM_0:1:699492578 Date & Time of incident: 10/18/23 - 9pm Timezone: EST What happened? (include any proof): Earlier in the day i was reported after being damaged by an explosive (milkor) and killing the person who had killed me. I was reported for RDM and provided proof for the incident, following up 3 hours or so later i was brought in a sit randomly about a "management decision" which was either I compensate the player for "killing him" which was proven otherwise with the clip i provided, or I would be banned or demoted. Not only was i shocked to see this but I had done nothing wrong in the sense that the player damaged me and i killed him with a "valuable item" https://streamable.com/1s8xw0 clip of the incident. the message i was welcomed with while being brought to the roof. Again the only "proof" the player has was his advert which i assume had 0 time frame, would never hold up in a regular report. What i found the most odd, almost clear bias trying to side with the player who was in the wrong WITH evidence. Again a baffling response, that i should've let him damage me because of my money/rank? Even with "escaping" the punishment that should've never been a question, I was told off. This post is not made for a space for arguing but to just show my side of this incident that I felt was completely wrong. Never in my years of playing the server have i been treated this way, I have gained a mostly positive reputation and never been banned, warned, jailed or punished of any extent so to be treated like this especially by the higher-ups of the server, I was kept in a sit for maybe a little over 30 minutes for a issue that only has value because the player lost his milkor. I was told to give a longer clip which I did not have (again im the only one who provided any proof for the sit) aside from a screenshot of an advert which almost proves completely nothing especially when he was using a 6 shot GL in a heavily populated area which was next to a zombie event i was participating in. I was told that in the clip i was purposely running into his explosives which have a large radius regardless which makes literally makes no sense without any context of the clip (still considering i was the only one who had provided a clip.) Bottom line to get treated like this is new to me which makes me worried for other players who run into issues similar.

I Description After recently talking to Garnet about the future of MRP, there were a few interesting ideas that I gathered from our conversation. I made a point of noting how easily accessible and constantly changing FPS games are hard to compete with given how old Garry's Mod is. At this point in time I think anyone can agree that RP is scarce and forced attempts to generate it is the virtual equivalent of a nursing home. Any vet will tell you that the best RP comes naturally and in the past, its not something people "focused" on creating. It was just something people did. The reality is that we are playing an old game in a sea of modern FPS games with a lot more to offer. I think we need to take some serious steps towards changing how our server works fundamentally in order to adapt and engage a population of players that have a world of other FPS options to play. What's that look like? 1.1 Weapons Remove all class loadouts from the server. Categorize all available guns in the server into "eastern" and "western" categories. Each regional gun is unlockable by anyone on their respective nation as well as the attachments for them. Similar to battlefield. Western Eastern Mixed M4A1 AK-74 FN FAL AR-15 AK-103 G3A3 MP5 CZ-858 UMP 45 M249 AEK-971 FMG-9 G36C SKS MAC-11 L82A5 SKS-D M60 M14 EBR PKM L2A3 SCAR-H Mosin-Nagant P90 SR338 SVT-40 KRISS Vector M95 T-5000 MP40 M82A3 SV-98 FAMAS M1 Carbine SR-2 Veresk SIG 552 M92FS CZ-52 Honey Badger Sig P226 CZ-75B MSBS Stevens M620 AS VAL LR300 P99 Makarov PM MR96 UTS-15 MP-153 Micro Desert Eagle M3 Super 90 MP-443 Grach Neostead 2000 M1911 SR-1M De Lisle Carbine L115 TOZ-194 JNG-90 FN Five-Seven TT-33 Serbu Shorty Desert Eagle OTs-33 Ruger P345 Western guns unlockable by US. Eastern guns unlockable by AFG. Mixed guns unlockable by both. To answer some questions: Factions would remain the same and be cut down to classes based on their rank. Tryouts would still exist. Factions would still exist. Instead of having 1 million guns on your hotbar, an idea would be: All players restricted to 1 primary and 1 secondary. VIPs such as Titan could be able to carry an extra primary. In regards to your VIP classes, I assume they would still exist in some capacity and have a selection of their own exclusive weaponry. 1.2 Peacetime Get rid of empty peacetime and implement this: The deny reason for this post is a lie and also the same trash MRP players have been eating for years. The GM events will never get better. The players will never want to RP more. Allow guns to be shot during all times of playing on the server, while keeping war, and I promise the server will see more RP naturally develop than it has in years. While IFN died and is no longer around, it did some things right. Pockle outlines it all in his suggestion and I think this suggestion is one of the healthiest proposals for change to server dynamics that we have had in a very long time. 1.3 Snipers and Balancing Adjust various weapons alongside the loadout system overhaul. There are various weapons all around the server that could definitely use some adjustment to adapt to a more streamlined loadout system. I know a few players (including myself) who would be willing to sit down and spend whatever amount of time it takes to create a state of weapon balancing that only slightly adjusts in future updates. I guess all I'm looking for to actually do this is a go-ahead that it won't be wasted effort. For example, some ideas: Remove movement and delay penalties from all snipers. All snipers no longer one shot. Spread reduction around the board. 1.4 Pilot Jobs for Entry Add a pilot job to both US Army and Taliban. Add respective NPCs for each side for spawning an aircraft. Implement togglable parachutes for all players. Before I get started here: No, we should not give a pilot job to every faction. No, we should not make it another T1 faction like it was before. Yes, we should make the pilot job most easily accessible by senior entry players. US Army : Pilot Loadout: Only given access to sidearm selection. Taliban Army : Pilot Loadout: Only given access to the sidearm selection. 1.5 Trello Cleanup Currently, the trello is extremely backed up. This is not a result of our owner neglecting to do updates, but rather the result of a single dev managing a server trello for years on end. It happens. Personally, clutter kills me and if this suggestion is accepted, I think we should pretty much wipe the entire slate and restructure it to focus on this overhaul. Aside from game breaking bugs and recently accepted suggestions, we cut our losses that are the ideas generated and stacked from forever ago, and make simple clear-cut trello cards to focus on a server revamp. 1.6 Removing Money Wipe the entire economy from the server. I don't really see a place for money existing on the server and instead, I think everything should just be unlockable via experience. Attachments, cars, guns, weapon skins, utility, etc would all be earned by leveling. For example, if we transition to the previously suggested loadout system, players can unlock a 'car slot' when they hit x prestige. I think this alternative would be infinitely more straightforward than grinding 800k through word scrambles or creating more uses for money. Alongside this, ways to earn XP should be expanded upon with systems such as achievements (I would love to make those). Alternative: Remove XP and have everything be money focused. (Personally I like this more) X Conclusion This suggestion is composed of random ideas that I thought of when asking myself how the server could better match other FPS games on the market. I think that RP will still exist and happen when it wants to on a server that replicates a milsim like Squad or Battlefield. However, I do not think that we can continue to treat MRP like we can revive the environment that existed 7 years ago. I think its time to full on change heavy fundamentals about the server. For more context, there has been a few ideas floating around on what can be done about the current environment of MRP. Some of those include a rogue-like inventory system and RP operations that focus on the outcomes of war. While these ideas could synergize with what I am suggesting, I think that those ideas alone will not be enough to freshen up MRP. Our main focus should be on streamlining MRP into a server with constant action and worrying about those systems when the baseline experience on the server is enjoyable. What am I looking for from this suggestion? Mainly for it to garner support and then Garnet takes a look and we start taking steps in that direction with people who are passionate about it. Again, I can name a few people who would be very interested in being super involved in something like this and I would love to spearhead it. As someone who has been around for years, I care about the server and I honestly think the best thing for it is to modernize into something a lot more stimulating.

(include any proof): I hopped on around 8pm CT and was planning on printing with clan members, like I normally do. I had a base placed down, and I was printing but while I was waiting for more clan members to get on, I started to place GL ammo on different rooftops and was blowing them up with an EX-41. I was blowing the ammo up for fun, I wasn't trying to raid anyone at the time as well. When I was doing this, it was just for my pure enjoyment, I wasn't attempting to hurt anyone's experience. I've also never been told this was not allowed. I've never been made aware by an admin or anything that this was exploiting. If I was made aware of this, I would of avoided doing it for any reason. I believe I've been a productive and helpful member of the server for a long while, and I believe I should be unbanned for this, as I wasn't made aware of this beforehand or at all.

[minimum 2 paragraphs] I would be helping the server, helping players within the server, and being overall helpful to the staff team. For helping the server I will do my best in sits to resolve issues that a player is having and I have no problem of dropping whatever I have to help someone else. With the person that caused the issue I will give them the appropriate punishment and tell them future punishments they will receive if they keep it up. Lastly I will let the person know how to improve and tell them the reasonable response to the certain scenario that broke the rules. The player base is important to me because I met so many wonderful people and friends within the community over the last 5 years and they all deserve the best of their experience playing on the server. Helping with it I will answer any questions someone might have of the server a example is letting them understand rules they fully do not understand or explaining what can happen in war, raids, kidnaps and things like that which will improve people's knowledge of the server and they can play it to the full potential without breaking any rules or feeling that something they do is wrong. I'm a team player, I'm always talking to my lower enlisted in DF for there input relevant for the faction. I think its important to take input from those around you even if they arnt staff or officers as they provide a different prospective and insight. I'm always willing to admit if I make a mistake and fix it. We are all human and we all do make mistakes. But what I think its sad to see is that most people wont admit they made a mistake or take steps to fix them. I'm also not a yes man. I'm willing to call people on there bullshit and to stand up for what I believe is right even if people around disagree, but i think it should be noted that its important to find middle ground when you do disagree. I think dialogue is important. Have you ever been banned or punished on GG MRP? If so, Include details Just the rdm warn Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: GM back in like 2021/22 How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: I will be more active on weekdays as i mainly work weekends. I would be able to provide at least 10 hours a week but would most likely be more

I am very well aware of the D3A System and how it functions, As well as knowing most if not all of the D3A Guidelines by heart. As a person, I am very chill and easy going most of the time, I know that at the end of the day this is only pixels and a video game so I don't let anything on here get to me. I am also very dedicated to whatever it is that I am doing, Be that in real life, or ingame. However I cannot say that staffing/playing will be one of my priorities in my everyday life as I do got a lot going on for me, But staffing is most definitely a priority to me when I am on the server. My dedication to Garnet as a community has shown by the fact that I joined the community back in 2017 and still find myself coming on here even if I take a break, Be that a week, month, or even years. I have created friendships and bonds with people that are still actively on here, and others that are long gone. Even with the newer generations I am cool with most of them too, So I think that's also a good addition. I am willing to staff for the time I am on here since I have been active for the past 2-3 months already, So might aswell go ahead and help out whatever the help is! Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: Only 1 Mass RDM ban from last year that I do not really recall the situation of but that's about itHave you made any previous applications, If so when?: Yes on the old forums in 2018How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Really depends on my free time but on average 3+ hours and some of them on the off hours due to the timezone difference!If you have any, what hobbies or activities are you involved in outside of Garry's Mod?: I am an explorer so I like to travel around, I run my own business and will be graduating from comp sci later this year.Did you read the staff rules?: br0ken

Ok so after much trial and thought ive decided its best for me to resign from staffing. I started Garry's Mod and GarnetGaming during Covid and eventually fell in love with the game and this glorious community. Although I may have never achieved manager, the experience here has made me so comfortable with people management that I actually achieved a manager position IRL!! So of course with my work schedule I don't really have much time to maintain my status as Admin. Ive been staffing for almost 4 years and now, I became leader of SAUCE one of the coolest clans on the server, met so many cool people that I fully intend on keeping up with. THIS IS NOT GOODBYE, GUYS!! I fully intend to get on and check in on my favorite people and maintain my clan. I truly thank you Garnet.. from the bottom of my heart!! Too all of my Sauce Clan guys, I'm still gonna be around so pls don't worry!! @hooboododoMartian@Sauce AceFUBAR@Gordita@Dan Gardner@PolarICE@sat11@Depot@X12_@Fatgood(everyone else i could'nt find on here) @NutterThanks for keeping the dream alive, couldnt thank you enough for starting such a cool thing here.

(include any proof) I got banned for being "toxic" and I will admit at the time I was being a real ass I wasn't having the best day and I was just pissing bob off saying like "ban me" and just stupid shit and now I have reflected and now know that I shouldn't have acted like that. I have been on Garnet for coming on 5 years and I have done a lot in that time frame and I have changed A LOT of my actions and have improved in that time. I understand Bob's decision to give me a perm ban but I would like to apologies to not only the server but to bob for disrespecting him and not taking this seriously. and I know bob you are gonna read so I would like to truly say I'm sorry to you for acting the way I was and treating you with such disrespect after all that you have done for the server.

Proggy is usually never this vocal, you must be actual scum

Imagine blocking off an available gameplay mechanic and warning people for it EDIT: It took me roughly 2 minutes to write experimental code to keep the player's hitbox hull in its correct position when they crouch jump, I will try out this code over the next week so crouch-jumping is a non-issue and players don't get banned for playing on their instinct. I think almost ALL of us have an impulse to jump and tap CTRL

Huge thank you to @stretchy for providing me with a blueprint and helping me test this update! Arcades Some fun things to do in the downtime have been added to the server I worked on these purely for practice Snake Tetris Minesweeper Police Fixed a bug in which the /wanted command would print to everybody's chat Fixed issue where Policing players were unable to see other players' names Corrected issue with Lockdown cooldowns applying incorrectly Spawn Protection Entirely re-written and the codebase for spawn protection, targeting strictly performance. I anticipate a much more stable server with the ability to raise prop count soon Mugging Fixes Removed the ability to /mug Hobos, Hobo Lords, and Cinema Owners Removed the ability for Assassin and Hitman to utilize the command /mug Players under level 10 can no longer be /mug'd Keypads Functionality has been added for party members to open keycards without a passcode! Miscellaneous Added notification back to promote staff to apply onto the staff team Fixed issue where Staff members couldn't see other players' names when on duty Removed the logging of fspectate functionality

Greetings everyone, I hope this message finds you well. It pains me to do this, but I will be stepping down from my moderator position on the Garnet DarkRP staff team. I know, I know. I am a pillar of this community and many of you will ask " BUT DEPOT, WHY? HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?" This comes as recent events have come to light. The constant racism, sexual harassment, and discrimination I have endured have had lasting effects on my mental ,emotional, physical, social, and spiritual health. I would like to be able to play this server once again as a no-mic who RDMs and builds. I've been a moderator for many reddit forums and discord servers, but joining the staff team on Garnet DarkRP has been my downfall. Never again. One scandalous event right after the other. I have also done my own investigating and have found damning evidence that can place several individuals in prison for a very long time. I won't @ anyone, but you know who you are, scum. But I digress. I have had my fair share of fun on the staff team, but my time as a moderator has come to an end. Farewell. @Chrisrid Thank you for being a great mentor. I never forgot that talk you had with me and bigchavez. You were right, it all makes sense now. I have been enlightened. Edit: Shiiiiit, i guess i made this post the day I found out I gotta pay 4K in child support. Got drunk af and popped some acid. Just an fyi, I already reported the crypto pump-n-dump scammers to the irs, so no worries there. They’ll get what’s coming to them soon enough. As for me resigning? I am rescinding my resignation. I don’t see a “no takesy backsies” rule, so I’m back. My birthday is in 2 days by the way

I can't even believe this is a genuine argument for this post. "You then decided to insult both Dovey and I for no apparent reason," literally right after he raided you guys dovey says "I hope your family dies of diabetes." Is this not considered harassment by your standards? According to you this the rule you are referencing: "Do not disrespect other members of the community when out-of-character (OOC)" and "Do not harass, grief, or troll players of the community." Is this not the rule you and dovey are also breaking by dissing in OOC? If Scythe is banned for this then why aren't you and dovey too? Also even IF you think he is dissing in OOC then why tf is he banned for harassment? Firstly let's breakdown you argument. First, "In OOC, you decided to say: 1) "sorry i just dont like women that seek validation on a 10 year old game honest to god its cringe af", 2) "i dont like simps either", 3) "i mean at least im taken", and 4) "dovey wasnt valid enough for vr chat so came to gmod"." These are all disses and are not any form of harassment imo. I have seen much worse with little to no repercussions. Why is that the case? Secondly, "You claimed in the sit that you considered your messages to be simple trash talking: https://imgur.com/a/yFiS5UD." I 100% agree that is normal trash talk or diss. In all the images shown from @X12_and everything from @its_sythe these are obviously disses and nothing more. No idea how you could consider this harassment. Also since this was during the sit is there a clip for how the sit was handled? What was said? If there were constant threats in the sit then I could see harassment but honestly the "evidence" you posted makes your argument less valid. Thirdly, "Don't act innocent and be like we didn't know your intentions. You said those messages to just simply be toxic. When I brought you into the sit, I wanted you to show some type of remorse or maybe even apologize but you did not care. In your head, you believed you were just chatting and I knew nothing was going to change no matter what I said, you were just going to continue being toxic. You've been on the server a long time and you should already know you cannot act this way towards another player for any reason. Your intentions are clear, you are just here to make the server uncomfortable for players and I do not think you are fit for the community if this is how you act after a singular raid on people that had only been nice to you." I honestly don't know what to say about this... is this not the definition of a bias sit? He clearly sought it out and banned him for "I do no think you are fit for the community if this is how you act after a SINGULAR raid on people that had only been nice to you." So you take a sit for someone in your party, then you decided that he is not fit for this server because he inside raided you and dissed in OOC after the fact. I don't really know what you were trying to achieve with this argument. In my opinion this is obviously favoritism and definitely not harassment. "And when I saw that two other senior level staff members agreed that you were toxic, I decided to ban you for harassment after taking into consideration you have been a long time member of the community that knows harassment is not allowed period. " Can you please name drop the other staff members since they seemed to have affected you judgment. Lastly... "Dovey has been getting harassed by other players of the community the past two days and I was tired of giving people the benefit of the doubt when their intentions were clear from the beginning." What are his intentions? He raided you from the inside because you let him in? Is that not the point of the whole game? He obviously got pissed once dovey said "I hope you family dies" clearly dovey intentions were to start an argument with him instead because she seemed a bit salty about losing prints. We all understand that. Don't think there was ANY underlying connotations made by him other than the ones you procured in your mind. Seems like this is just a simple situation of someone getting butthurt and an L Admin defending them because they're "friends". I think it is quite clear reading through this that YOUR intentions are to save you rank by posting this mess of a response to try and make something from nothing. I cant believe this was handled this poorly especially by an L Admin. You preach to us about being a role model when you can't even stand up to the plate yourself, admit this is a mistake and accept it. Rather you make this argument that honestly paints you in the worst light possibly. No Idea why you even tried defending this at all. "I was not going to give you special treatment on the server just because you're a long time VIP member. I actually hold you guys to a higher standard and you should be role models to newer players to show that our server can be fun." You didn't give his special treatment but you gave someone special treatment that's for sure...

Our newest map developed by @Diomonder Ever so slightly optimized by myself so I can be a little rat and take some credit for realistically 0.7% of the work This is by far our most overly developed map to date (and mot expensive ) Codename: Sierra This map has been trademarked as property of the Garnet Networks LLC No scummy clone servers will be able to use even the littlest part of this map without their community being taken offline Taliban Base US Military Base COMMS Castle Quarry Misc Terrain Occupation Period 10 minutes following to war, an 'Occupation Period' will initiate, During this time, players may interact with flags located on every POI (points of interest) on the map, in order to "occupy it". US Occupied COMMS AFG (Terrorist) Occupied COMMS Occupied areas will be locked for a period of 20 minutes and belong to the faction that was most successful at capturing the objective (similarly to Objective war) Only one new occupation can be active at a time, meaning, a faction can't simply spread out and simultaneously attempt to occupy multiple spots across the map. In the future, these points will be used in order to promote a faction's economy, thus allowing them more weapons/attachments/transport vehicles/armored fighting vehicles Context Menu Shortcuts NEW OPTION The ability to toggle objective indicators during war have been added Additionally, descriptors have been added to all selectable options

In short, this is my official resignation from the staff team of DarkRP. Over the past 2 years, I’ve met many wonderful people and had plenty of great experiences staffing and gaming alongside everyone. It’s been a pleasure to be a part of the staff team, and also to meet so many great people! In recent times, I’ve felt that I had done what I sought out for, in developing an even more fantastic team, and I’m happy to leave the staff team, knowing that it’s in great hands! While I’d love to add mentions of the people that have a special place in my heart, I know that the list would extend to the hundreds, haha, and so I’ll leave this as is. Thank you all for being kind, helpful, and just overall fantastic people! I’ll still be playing DarkRP, and so I hope to see everyone actively gaming with me! I’d like to add a little side note. If you aren’t sure about it, but have been interested in joining the staff team, I’d highly recommend pursuing it! It’s an experience worth doing. You’ll get to help out the community you’re involved with, and also build better friendships with the many great people on the team!

Hey everyone! We've been hard at work making improvements and adding new things to the server. Feel free to look over and see what's new. Thank you to @Derpzaand @Merkfor being my test dummies to hopefully ensure EVERYTHING works on our main server once it is restarted Things you'll care about... Mob Boss Hits To keep our hitmen busy, the Mob Boss will now automatically assign hits on players on the server, currently with 10-30 minute intervals Hobo Donation Box Those can now be Physgunned/Frozen by their hobo owners. Now start collecting donations! VIP Perks VIPs now get an extra textscreen to decorate their businesses, or just put down a goofy ass KOS line like a loser. Donator Items We've added the two missing COD Ghost knives onto our server. Thank you to those who support the server monetarily! Deliveryman This role is now accessible from level 1. Start delivering! System & Gameplay Improvements Hitman System Overhaul I've recoded large parts of the hitman system for better performance on the back-end of the server Physgun Freeze Staff can now right-click freeze players while using the physgun. Admin Tools L.Admins now carry the same permissions for /removeprop as managers+ Improved Logging The hitman system logging is now more reliable; and will also display correct information in the event of a completed hit Bug Fixes & Exploit Patches NoClip Exploitation I've looked into several issues that could arise from (surprisingly) abusive staff, that'd allow players to be granted noclip permissions with a list of a few malicious steps. As a result, I've recoded a portion of our admin mod (D3A) to patch these issues! DJ Radio It has been brought to my attention that exploiters are able to access the DJ's radio and modify it, I've recoded portions of the code to add extra security for the radios as a result Hopefully this bug has been squashed. HUD Textures Those missing textures on the HUD? Fixed them - no longer will you have to stare at purple and black checkers. Advanced Duplicator 2 Duplicator can no longer spawn in nocollided props. A Big Thank You! Your feedback and reports make these updates possible. Keep them coming. I'm super happy with where our server is currently, having a larger population, with all the previous toxicity and unmotivated or malicious "staff members" being gone

Can't say I didn't see this coming. Don't treat this community like a job, seriously it will get to you. No I'm not retiring cause life busy and mental health and blah blah blah blah. That being said take the time to self reflect and talk to your peers about how you are doing as staff, you won't get it from your higher ups unless its to solely correct/punish you. I'm not going to go on a tangent or put anyone on blast but this place really isn't worth the amount you put into it. Its okay to love the community and help out but that's all it should be. I knew this was going to happen eventually just didn't think it was be this soon or the reason its for. I'm severely disappointed. I will be just another name in a long list, soon to be forgotten. DannyTheDog, signing out. @stretchy - the whole reason I was staff again was because you personally asked me to @busterbignut - what a boomer (Great guy tho <3) @Derpza - drinks too much @Hydra - Taught me to be an operator when it was just L admins before, you were destined for greatness @dmoney824 - last of my og's, you will go far, just apply yourself and strive to be better @Gates - likes wheezer Enzo - miss basing with you @Oyasumi - says the most outta pocket shit @PolarICE - thanks for your dupes General Knoxx - is a quack @xFish - your referral is one that got me started (also lets play brawl) @Rosie - I still have our easter dupe from like 2021 or 2022 @FireHazard - we were gonna be managers together someday @Errol - forever clownin together @Corbzz - VERY first guy to take me under his wing and show me the ropes @VeraFly - youll never top my sit count >:) @Lt_Dan - fix ur mic @ChrisRid - favorite brit @hooboododoMartian - is green Jazzo - pmofisreal? @Chikn - will he ever be sorry? @FlameSoul - I never could really top ur sits @Shin_Tsukimi - OG Manager @ShankNinja - always had the answers for the most random shit Shankie - I got your bed dupe, wanna use it? c_c @Compa - my original trainer @vapr - I still got a bind of u somewhere @Rambo-Panda - base bro @Glorbnob - taught me the ways of GM @1998Corolla - put a gurl on @CKY Camp or @CKYY which ever one you are - ill step on ur grass @sat11 - ur done @Mattymatcorn - Go forth my son, do great things.

Description: I'm suggesting the addition of more materials that you can obtain when you Prestige. These 5 textures have been tested on multiple player models to better suit which would fit in the DarkRP Server. Although purely cosmetic, this could add more customization to our current set of materials in-game. I can understand this not being a high-priority suggestion, although it doesn't seem too difficult to add.Reasoning: - Encourages players to prestige for newer materials. - Newer materials can make others stand out amongst other players. - Adds more materials to prestige levels that don't gain any materials. - Incentivizes new ways to customize your player model.

Hello Postal, As of right now, a ban appeal will not AT ALL be considered. You currently have almost $1,000 worth of fraudulent chargebacks open against Garnet Gaming. This situation has caused significant financial stress and concern about my ability to cover bills, barely a week into the month. In addition to your literal commitment of federal crime (credit card fraud), your behavior on the server was reported to have been pretty poor by our staff. You evidently broke server rules MANY times, including reported incidents of racism/toxicity/mass rule-breaking, and ban evasion. Again, COMPOUNDING this incredibly lengthy list of violations, you initiated the fraudulent chargebacks, and i'm unsure if you thought nobody knew of this happening - leading to your appeal, but it was noted the day of. You are presently the second person ever in the almost 10 years I've ran Garnet, that has led to me spending my time and money to consult my lawyer regarding our next form of action against you. As I am writing this message to you, I spoke to my lawyer a literal 25 minutes ago in regards to which option would be most appropriate; involving PayPal's fraud department, your bank regarding confirmed credit card fraud, or your local municipality's police department. At this point, I STRONGLY advise you to retract your ban appeal and reach out to both your bank and myself with an apology. Until these issues are resolved, there will be no consideration of lifting your permanent ban. Hopefully you handle this situation responsibly from here on out.

It's time. I have had a lot of fun staffing with everyone and making tons of good friends. @Merk you will probably be the best director for DarkRP yet, you genuinely enjoy every part of DarkRP, and you have tons of good ideas in regards to staffing, and updates to the game. You will do great things as a Director. @xHydrax420x it was great being staff with you and watching you do better with each promotion (P.S im better at siege). @Danny_The_Dog keep doing great things, you know a lot of server and staff information, keep it up. @busterbignutYou went from some random VIP mod I kept hearing good things about, to being one of the best admins I have seen, you actually enjoy staffing and DarkRP in general, You have great potential within the staff team. @Gorditayou broke my heart first </3. @Rosiestill mad you didn't train me for staff when I first got here, you showed me a lot of the ropes for being staff and how to conduct myself within the staff team. Those are just some of the few people I have to thank for my time here in the staff team, it has been great fun and there were some stressful times, but in the end it was a blast. To all the newer admins, I have not had any issues with any of you, keep up the good work and make sure to have fun. A lot of staff get burnt out just doing staff stuff, make sure you have fun too. To the rest of the staff team, keep up the good work I have had very few issues with newer staff and those I had some issues with all fixed the small things they messed up. @AlexConway it was a pleasure to get to know you and work some DarkRP stuff out with you. @Nutter love the server you have created and look forward to all the updates you got planned. It's been fun y'all, I'll still be on the server every now and again, but not as staff. Feel free to ask me questions regarding staff if you need, I got all this useless information in my head.

[minimum 2 paragraphs] As a long time player/staff member in the garnet community I can say confidently I've racked up a good reputation around almost all of the servers. With minor issues in the past on a different server. Across all garnet servers i've racked up easily around 6k hours of experience staffing and as a normal player, which gives me strong advantages within the knowledge of server wide rules, I make an effort to be active and knowledgeable in game to newer players and anyone seeking help, I'm very sure others can speak for my maturity as conflicts between others with me is extremely rare. I look to benefit the server adding ideas, helping fix issues and ext, as I have done in the past. I'm looking to come back and prove my worth on the SWRP server as staff because i've really enjoyed playing it all these years and would love to rise the ranks and continue to help the server/staff grow. On my last run as staff here I got caught up with life quite a bit to where a LOA wasn't necessary, thankfully now I have a lot less stress of my shoulders with the college process, I've committed to a 4 year school to play soccer which gives me the time management I needed back then. I consider myself very knowledgeable with the servers RP due to my experience as Jedi for the past year in a half where RP is extremely serious, so i know the difference between braindead rp and serious to semi serious rp which i believe is an important trait to have as staff. As my long run of staff server wide I've helped with numerous server and staffing issues, bugs, exploits and ext. Which other applicants probably have not. Overall i believe my experience as staff give me a extreme advantage over others applying for Moderator. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server?

this is longggg overdue I've been inactive for some time now.... It's been a few years now since I've been staff and its been a good one fr its the first gmod community I really joined and got into. things have changed so much since I first joined the server. makes me feel old af now lol I've met so many people, seen many come and go, and made so many great memories being apart of this community I don't even know where to start when thinking of names or moments... Those people know who I'm talking about I'll keep things nice and simple.. I wish the best for everyone going forward in life and keeping the community thriving.. it was nice being apart of this staff team; Thank you all for everything and letting me be apart of the staff team Enjoy the rest of your 2024 everyone and Good luck. I'll still pop up in the server here and there ... discord is xou. if anyone wants to contact me there

I’m no longer going to be holding onto something that no longer brings me joy. Yes I did like being on staff but it's been 3 years now where it's difficult to have time to handle more of the workload I'm already doing. It’s time I’m getting my shit together and live my life without worrying about yet another issue with staff coming up. It’s hard trying to do the same thing everyday with no changes really. I've watched staff come and go and still miss some people dearly. I wish the staff team the best of luck and I appreciate a lot of you. I encourage you all to do what makes you happy not because you have to do it. Also my last bit of advice for staff and players alike is to remember to have fun. It is a game after all. @Derpza Minecraft do be fun @Danny_The_Dog don't fuck up this time lol @ajbedheadstop being so damn busy man @xHydrax420x"Who the fuck are you" lol @Lt_Dan loved playing with ya @GamingCarrot good luck on your training @GrosCave missed messing around @Merk mhm @stretchy miss you @ProggyIt was nice when you still based @Jay_ be big sad @Gl1tch You know what you did @Ghostieee love having talks with you @Chicaa21 @Gordita @Vortex lol just no @Corbzznice printers @ChrisRid good luck being staff again @Dustin noob

(include any proof): Starting off, this isn’t an apology appeal. I know what I did was against the rules and as staff I am held to higher expectations. I am sorry. I was aiming at a single individual (sureak) and 2 others were affected by the blast radius. I 100% hold myself accountable for not being as careful as I should have. While I know I won't get a full appeal, I am hoping to have this rules as Unintentional MassRDM as opposed to normal MassRDM, seeing as this was a genuine accident.

It's been a good run, but the way things have been going I just don't want to deal with it anymore. Too much fake shit, we're supposed to be a team working together, we were supposed to all be friends but it some how turned into a bunch of high school drama. Got to learn how to talk shit out, talk to people and hash it out instead of talking behind their back. If we learned how to do that those problems that arose last month would have been minuscule and handled right. Met a lot of great people from staffing here, I'd go through and mention everybody but then this would become a long book and I'm not leaving, just want to be able to play the game and enjoy myself when I do get on. 5093 sits since I started staffing again a year ago, it could've been more but I just lost the drive. Hoping the server can move past all the bullshit that has been happening, and continue thriving. Been here on and off since 2017, the only server I use to play back in the day that is still around today and that says something! Been great staffing with you guys, I appreciate all of y'all for real.

I want to start this off by saying! Thank you! Everyone, from interacting with new players and to interacting with players who have been here longer than I've been playing Gmod. Every single one of you has made my time on this server amazing. I wouldn't have had the courage to be the little minge I am without y'all. And I know making this will sadden a few people. Making this also saddens me! The reason I'm resigning is that for the past 3 months I never had time to play/staff due to school and my hobbies getting in the way. So after a longtime of thinking I’ve decided to leave the Garnet Staff Team. It was nice helping out the most I can for the past almost 2 years. Now my time has come, I wish you all the best on achieving what you want in life and your dreams becoming a reality. God bless you all! (My DM’s are always open on discord if you need help with anything. ANYTHING!!!!!) “This will be my last Sorry, but certainly not my last Not Sorry” ~ Chikn N Burg (12/9/2021 - 10/1/2023) (I'm not pinging anyone since there's too many of y'all) (I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!)

Thanks to our mapper @Diomonder, the map Foxtrot dropped today as a surprise for anybody who's been tired of cscdesert. I will keep this post short so you guys can head on in-game and check it out, some notable things that can't be skipped however are, this map is 50% the size of Delta, and roughly 30% smaller than even Omega which is our smallest map to date. It takes about 9 seconds to run to an objective from your faction's gate. I have done absolutely 0 optimizations to this map, and as such, frames might suffer until we decide whether or not we like this map enough to keep it! Some screenshots:

I miss the days where the crowd of an MRP server would abuse headglitching and the most fucked up angles on a map just to kill you and attack your whole ancestry. It drove players to try harder. This is a PvP game, toxicity during war is not something that I think we should try and eliminate. On the contrary, during OOC/Peace-time and anything that is personal/overreaching, sure.

Ooffff, the past 2 months have seen an intense amount of new content and gameplay optimizations *NEW* Clown *NEW* Once again, I have proved to the world that I am elite at generating the best roles that GMod servers have seen, with my latest innovation being the Clown role Prestige 1 - Level 8 Left Mouse Button - Honk an annoying bike horn Right Mouse Button - Drop a banana peel on the floor that other players will inevitably slip on VIDEO DEMONSTRATION THAT IS NOT STAGED AT ALL https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/io69ELCUsolvVthjU/d1337W9Hvwhz?invite=cr-MSxJUEEsMTk3ODAyNDQ5LA Casino Re-introcued a partially re-written version of our last casino, with multiple tiered slot machines In the next upcoming months, I will revamp some old machines, IE: poker and re-introduce them to the server Death Animations Our most underrated feature (probably because most of it is paid-for) is the death animations :^( Instead of non-ceremonially having your lifeless fucking corpse fall to the ground, you can now instead have a naruto-inspired substitution jutsu take place, and rather than a corpse, you'll turn up into a fog, followed by a stray plank falling to the ground Video demonstration (substitution jutsu and charred corpse) https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/io603OoHDOLiC9fQh/d13378tTGdI5?invite=cr-MSxSanksMTk3ODAyNDQ5LA Dissolve: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/io63rRzfk_elIXUZs/d1337kblu7CS?invite=cr-MSxEZ08sMTk3ODAyNDQ5LA Organ Donor: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/io66VAIeHao6YL3Cb/d1337BUbgksi?invite=cr-MSxCeUksMTk3ODAyNDQ5LA Thank you to my gorgeous model @Gildarts who got $70 worth of pointshop points for this 5 minute clip. Pet System The Pet System has been added onto our server Pets have been partially re-written and changed around to be optimized, if your computer was made in 2010 and Pets are causing an FPS loss to your game session, they will throttle their own behavior in order to boost your FPS, and if that doesn't work, pets will automatically be disabled for you! HUGE thank you to the TERA community for publicly releasing their source code for pets! Police System Warrant Increased Search Warrant expiration time from 1 minute to 3 minutes Mayor Laws Mayor law: Hazards | SEE CARD merged with boot throwing numbering of laws Removed display of legal laws for redundancy (only illegal laws should be shown to players) Police Radio A Radio SWEP has been added for police officers with the capability to quickwant users for intelligent reasoning (WIP). The Radio SWEP can wanted players with a simple left mouse button click if they are lockpicking/keypad cracking a base, or you had witnessed the player murdering another user in downtown. Even during a lockdown, this radio can detect whether a player is out in the streets violating lockdown laws. Right click will create a dispatch to which all police officers will be able to report to! Administrative Logging Added detailed administrative logging for when players are hired by other players, or their contracts have expired. added mugging logs, hardcoded Utility Introduced PropBan which disallows players from spawning props for a duration (due to abusive behavior). Allowed T. Admin+ access. Bugs & Miscellaneous Improved server connect times by 25% by consolidating files and removing unused code. Our join times were already sub 1 minute :D. Fixed the ability to physgun weapons dropped directly from inventory increased voice radius by 30%, allowing players to hear one another from further away Updated DarkRP to the latest version and re-merged all the Garnet proprietary modules (optimizations, hireable roles, etc) Partially recoded the DJ Radio, providing the server a 7.8% performance boost on average. Corrected the behavior of Bail NPC, allowing the mayor to enable/disable bails. Added back the $500 minimum requirement for /dropmoney, and made dropped money wear away and despawn after 5 minutes. Corrected issue where Staff On Duty would get a cut of PD payout Disabled the writecheck command and its variants. Added automated timer to remove invalid lights with no owner Added income tax to hireable roles Fixed issue where certain HL2 voicelines would not trigger properly Corrected issue where votes/polls would stay on a player's screen indefinitely

Community Management Month of August, 2024 _______________________________ August has been an extremely exciting month in terms of growing our community management's roster. I don't think at any point in time we have had this many members join our upper management team! Community-Wide @Ozzy - Community Director Ozzy is now available as a third point of contact for yours needs, because who doesn’t love options when Nutter and Alex don't want to deal with your shit. _____________________________________ DarkRP @Merk - Super Administrator Keeps the carrots peeled and the server clean of less than favorable people (who just barely qualify as human beings). @GamingCarrot - Manager Legend has it he's still waiting on a gardener job to be added to DarkRP. _____________________________________ StarwarsRP @Quads - Super Administrator Most definitely has connections to the Venezuelan gang that's taking over Colorado at the moment. @Sam_my - Manager Honestly just a quota hire, although he too is Venezuelan. _____________________________________ MilitaryRP @Harus - Super Administrator Probably the only individual who's qualified enough to deal with the brainrot that is MilitaryRP. This concludes all our additions onto our management team, to be followed up with the usual: Extended Terms @AlexConway - Community Director - Literally can't go any higher @Nutter - Who knows - Doesn't really do anything @busterbignut - DarkRP Manager - Exhibiting increasingly homosexual behaviors towards the management team _____________________________________ Departures @Failed401 - Found a more fun server to main

Sadly there's no option to just flat-out toggle the "dynamic skybox" as you called it, but being that I spent another year or two optimizing the server, I'm not opposed to adding it back and seeing where performance sits. One of my gripes with that feature is nighttime wouldn't actually make the map darker, just the skybox black. Edit: Spent about 2-3 hours on the day-night system and managed to give it dynamic lighting this way the map gets darker at nighttime https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iuqUpPCQTpbpuBHy1/d1337Bhd3lAv?invite=cr-MSxJTjMsMTk3ODAyNDQ5LA Accepted

As promised the previous month, now that we got the crashing situation sorted, we are getting alllllll new content Law System A complete re-write to the law system has been made, this time, giving a total of 3 default laws, and 6 additional (toggleable laws) which the mayor may choose between. This approach disallows mayors from utilizing minge laws, which despite what "vEtErAn PLaYeRs" claim, will very frequently lead to a mass disconnect wave from the server, as players are arrested for very dumb things, IE: not addressing the Mayor as "daddy" or j-walking. This new approach will only allow useful and commonly-used laws from being enacted. Paper System This one was a PAIN IN TEH FCUKING ASS Players can now utilize the command /paper or /note in order to write a note on a piece of paper (hehehe) Once you're done writing your note/letter/paper, you can sign it, or simply leave it for other players to discover. This can be a legally-abiding document for RP purposes Other players may interact with this note by pressing E on it This took way more hours than any of you will believe it was worth, and I hadn't seen it used more than a handful of times so rip me Mayor Utilize the Mayor PC in order to reach the laws panels, through which you will be able to determine which laws you'd like to be enacted/repealed You now posses the power to toggle the Bail NPC in order to allow or disallow jail bonds as you wish! Lastly, you may utilize your Mayor desk computer in order to pay out your officers, given that you've kept an eye on the PD vault, and the tax rate is high, in order to gather up enough money to pay out your trusty officers! Hireable Role System There is now a table stored of hireable roles, IE: Security Guard, Mercenary, Medic, Doctor, and Prostitute (but only by a Pimp) Such roles can be interacted with through the general public by pressing 'E' on them This will raise the hiring menu, on which you can see the current going rate of hiring the individual If accepted, the player will display an extra piece of information on their hud, stating who they are hired by: Professionals may use the command /rate or /hirerate in order to define the pricepoint at which they wish to be hired: There is a limit of 100k for a hiring, as a hire only lasts until the player dies NEW Priest NEW Provide players with spiritual guidance and support to other players on our server. Down in the future you will carry unique toggleable abilities such as healing players' wounds and offering blessings that give temporary buffs for raiding. Priests can create temporary safe havens and conduct meetings for their affiliated church within a base. NEW Sailor NEW This is the only role on our server that can base above the beach's waters. Cleverly avoiding the sharks infesting right underneath. Bring your sea shawties above, or do as you wish, but just make sure you're not stuck outside your base with too many shark players, just incase your printer is overheating. NEW Shark NEW ^ Enjoy the amazing screenshot ^ You're a fucking menace that is probably new to our server, as this class is approachable at level 9. Your single purpose as this role is to fucking lure people into the water and disect their bodies. You must remain submerged at all times, as you will otherwise be beached and die of dehydration or whatever the fuck it is that kills sharks outside of water Prop Ban A new staff tool to deal with moronic prop spammers, but removing the necessity to ban them Hitman System Automated hits are now entirely dependnet on the number of active hitmen, the more active hitmen, the more automated hits volume that'll come through Prostitute This job has been entirely recoded with no more inconsistencies in cooldowns/territorial Disputes You may be hired solely by a pimp in order to be they faithful hoe Medic/Doctor These role are now hireable by all other players, you can serve as a personal medic! Logging System MODULE ADDED: Mug Logs MODULE ADDED: Hiring Logs Duel System Added proximity cancellations due to players abusing the weapons given through a duel Drug System Corrected some drugs appearing as errors on the F4 menu COMPLETE OVERHAUL AND RECODE TO MOST DRUGS Detailed list of changes, we panning to the left for this one boys: Weed: Reduced the chance of burning while smoking weed by approximately 40%. Applied slight optimizations. Doubled the effect of weed per use; tolerance remains unchanged. Added a notification when max benefits are reached. Coffee/Energy Drink: Remains the same, providing a 5% speed boost. Increased the maximum speed gainable by around 6%. Beer: No changes. Shrooms: Increased max gravity reduction per use by approximately 40%. Lowered overdose chance by around 40%. PCP: Raised speed increase per use by about 40%. Increased overdose threshold by approximately 10%. Heroin: Changed dirty needle chance by around 20%. Dirty needles no longer set run speed to sluggish; instead, they lower speed equivalent to the use of two heroin syringes. When saturated with heroin, players will say “I don’t want to keep injecting” and throw away the needle. Bath Salts: No changes. Cigarettes: Significantly lowered the chance of catching on fire, making it a more viable way to gamble for 200+ HP. Cocaine: Provides an insane speed increase per use that scales up. Doubled the ceiling for cocaine speed. Lowered overdose chance by about 20%, enhancing cocaine hyperspeed abilities. Weed Growing UI Corrections 3d display of the Pot will now actually be.. near the pot? Bugs & Miscellaneous Inventory dropped weapons can no longer be picked up Inventory/Unbox cannot be used from duel/while arrested Voice Line 10 second cooldown to avoid spam General server optimizations for more FPS Optimized DarkRP weapon shipments eating up your frames Corrected issue of staff on duty being able to deal damage to players Re-worked and cleaned up Police Ram code, should be far more responsive now Re-wrote the front-end code for the meth system for more FPS/removing redundant calculations that can be cached Fixed an issue with the cinema not initializing quickly enough, causing the server to have a hiccup on startup Added a notification for when your printer is claim, displaying who has claimed it Staff On Duty can no longer be mugged Given Merk more permissions Re-wrote huge portions of outdated code from 2014-2017 within our server and consolidated hundreds of files

Suggestion - SAILOR CLASS Description: The sailor would be a new class added under the "Miscellanious" section of the F4 job selection menu. (Additionally, /sailor.) This would be accessible at level 30, capped to a total of 6 slots, and would be allowed to base anywhere on the water. (Their build MUST be a boat, yacht, raft, or etc.) They would be allowed to have printers, 4 keypad doors, and everything else that a standard citizen is entitled to. One accommodation that would need to be made is that the Sailor could not be rocket-raided, (as they would have 0% survival rate if their base is made entirely of props.) This model pack would do very well at keeping the same general style and feel of a Garnet Gaming class, and would represent the sailor well. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1734562690 Reasoning: Would add a new class to play with, incentive to level up, and add more of a usage for the beach/water areas. Thanks to camp and enzo for supplying the boat example.

DENIED After careful review of your appeal and the events pertaining/leading up to your ban. We regretfully inform you that your request for an appeal of your ban has been denied at this time. This is mostly but may not be limited to the following reasons: As per your appeal in which you have admitted to not only doing it, but also knowing it was against the rules and using it as a means to put another person down (over a DarkRP clan ), your ban will not be lifted. In the 30 days you are banned, take the time to expand your vocabulary and learn to have a less-shit attitude when dealing with people. I've linked some useful resources for you: https://www.merriam-webster.com/word-of-the-day https://www.wikihow.com/Not-Be-Rude Thank you for attempting an appeal, as well as the effort you have put into your appeal.

Hello Garnetto members, I figured this is a big enough deal to make an update post over, considering we have not had a new SA figure on our DarkRP server in 4 years now. I really hope this message brings some joy and comfort to those of you who want to see the server change for the better, although I know some of you are punching the air right now ( @ChrisRid). Many of you have come to know and appreciate @stretchy/cyber sword/decay or whatever else fucking name he goes by as a well-respected member of our community, who absolutely loves our DarkRP server and tries to help it at every opportunity. After doing some thinking and battling my demons that tell me to never set anybody to be the SA of DarkRP, the demons lost and I've decided it's time to bump this guy up to the top of the staff ranking due to his dedication to making our server run smoothly, and showing interest in re-growing our community. Please everybody feel free to comment on this post in order to congratulate our new Super Admin, and I hope that moving forward with his assistance we can reach even greater heights for the DarkRP category, such as the possibility of opening another server which could either be EU based, or simply a full-blown "MODDED" DarkRP server to go against everything our current (Vanilla) server stands for I hope you all have a fantastic day -Nutter

Use this to tell people where you are.

In a direct effort to better our server's administration/management, it has been decided by myself and a few other trusted individuals that a slight restructure of our staff roster was necessary. As a result, a few trusted individuals had been nominated for a mid-month promotion. Harus Lead Administration This man is going to serve as our new Lead Administrator, the highest person in command within our Administration team. Harus has shown dedication to our community, he has been incredibly consistent with an uplifting attitude. He in my opinion is going to be the person that the majority of the playerbase can refer to when in need of a second opinion, mediation, or just general feedback. @Bobert3who had stepped down this past week also unsurprisingly had Harus as the designated person to take over his role, which just goes to show others have noticed Harus' dedication to our community. I hope to see your efforts now better translate to growth within the community New Trial Administrators - as appointed by Harus Quads Unceasing in his display of dedication towards the server, Quads' positive contributions are undeniable. He has been a staple of the GM team for some time now, displaying excellent leadership as a GM supervisor and now GM director. His interactions and genuine concern for the betterment of the community are clear in the actions he takes to improve the GM team and player experience. Splicer Splicer has contributed to the server's betterment in several ways through his history on the server. These include his previous contributions on the GM team, and revitalizing several areas of the server such as the Jedi Order. Going beyond the normal contributions of a staff member, he has provided valuable mediation, support, and insight for players, GMs, and the admin team alike. On the community level, he is a figure who many players trust and see as approachable. Fonza Fonza has a long history through much or the Garnet Gaming community. Upon returning to Star Wars RP in the capacity of a GM, he immediately began work on consistent and quality events. Additionally, his leadership in the GM team and respect on the server as a whole have led to his rise through the ranks, not to mention his prior staff experience. His articulation on a wide variety of topics and issues have benefited high level discussions, and would be well placed among the admin team. I have spoken with the three individuals about if they want to be on the admin team. They have all confirmed they it is something they want, and I am confident in their willingness to dedicate to the role.

It's honestly strange how soft MRP has become. A little bit of big brother bullying is ok and pushes people to be better. If any of you have a younger sibling growing up you have probably been in the scenario where you had to take your younger brother somewhere when you didn't want to. And even through protest he still tags along. Eventually you realize he is always going to be tagging more and more. So you try to push him to be better, and sometimes you have to make him hate you to be better. Because at the end of the day you're doing it out of the bottom of your heart and one day he will appreciate what you did for him. (And he won't be the weird little brother) That you pushed him to be better. So that means when I dog on you during war I should have every right to call you dogshit and scream like a retard. And you should have the right to do the same thing right back to me when you dog on me. Some mild hatred for getting shit talked every war forcing you to improve to where you can rub it in my face is great. Trash talk gives you a reason to improve and something to laugh about in a ts channel later. Pros Allows for small rivalries to form which in turn gives people a reason to keep playing and improving. Improve your social skills. Cons Some people will take big brother bullying too far like saying racial slurs or things that are completely out of line. Should be handled case by case Some people's feelings might be hurt? Lets keep it real, you are crying over gmod. Be better than that.

Escape Menu Added "Main Menu" button for ease for use for new players who have no ideas what tilda ` is Additionally, An ancient bug where going into third person and opening up the escape menu has also been fixed Lord (annoying little child) Tyler's Pack A pack sizing at 200MB of StarwarsRP related props has been added to the server, allowing for GMs to create more immersive events with a choice for hundreds of more props to choose from Removed exploit associated with this addon right off the bat Gamemaster & Staffing Players can no longer see a cloaked GM's username GMs on duty and noclipped are automatically put into Godmode Added a screen display to allow GMs to know when they are cloaked Player Event Health and Armor commands will now only print out to staff members in order to avoid hurting the immersive experience found at this community by the name of Garnet Gaming Starwars Clonewars Era roleplay, where very immersive events were taking place, only to be ruined by a chat print telling you how much mr CIS Commando Droid 6969 appreciates being set to 1500 Health. Miscellaneous & Bugs Rebalanced the Wrist Flame weapon. Previously 35 damage per tick, as well as 40 seconds of a victim lit on fire. Now 25 damage per tick and 5 seconds of victims lit on fire. Pesky little macaroons will no longer sit in your inventory like free-loaders, being unable to be dropped Corrected issue where some players could not see CG and Republic shields when equipped, but would instead see an error Dark Saber certification has been removed from the server Removed Republic Commando : Assailant class

What's funny is I was about to message Cyber and ask why he wireframed the entirety of eXg But yes, Wireframe is the coolest material

Playing gmod as a staff was fun especially helping the community, having fun memories and also gaining friends along the way with all of you!! it was my favorite part of this server and I love you all But with school. football and my mental health I feel as though its best to departure as staff. I'll still play the server here and there to hang our but wont fill in the time necessary to be a staff.

HUD Ammo Counter Corrected any foreseen possibilities of overlap between your reserve clip and ammo count Snake The game found in the arcade, now carries a top 10 leaderboard that'll persist over map restarts! Drugs Any class of drug can no longer be utilized inside of spawn, due to players abusing drugs while within spawn to avoid taking damage Furthermore, burn damage as a result of taking drugs will no longer be protected inside of spawn Bail System $10,000 of all bail funds will now go to the Police's vault Optimizations Our server's credit system and chess boards have both been optimized, please keep an eye out for any unforeseen issues
