Description: I am suggesting for extensive or brief clarification on the crouch-jumping rule. Either through an update of the MOTD or a formal post in addition to the rules. Reasoning: There is nothing written in terms of rules clearly defining what is and isn't allowed in terms of crouch jumping other than posts from 3 years ago that are incredibly outdated and from a long gone administration that wasn't exactly good to begin with. Specifically, in the post that clarified the rule has a contradiction in it. "Intentional Crouch-Jump Spam = FailRP | Crouch-Jumping during war or a RP scenario is FailRP unless it is to get over an obstacle. Recording needed before warn. Up to staff discretion." E (Additionally, the same thread with the rule is in the denied section anyway) Even in that given rule the first sentence clarifies that "crouch-jump SPAM" is failrp but then soon after the bracket contradicts the "spam" portion and says it's failrp in all scenarios with the exclusion of getting over obstacles and then further complicating things by saying it is up to staff discretion. Additionally, even on a handful of threads from this time period are confused and have different interpretations of the rule. (This is generally why rules like this are written down and posted via a formal post under administration or the forums motd for the server is updated. Some rules like basecamp previously had to be written down concretely exactly BECAUSE of different interpretations due to it never formally being written down prior let alone with a good enough baseline.) Additionally, in the sit I had earlier today I had an Admin, Papamid, who said the crouch jump rule was that once taking damage you can't crouch jump AT ALL whereas the one handling, Towelie an SMod, said it was only allowed when getting over obstacles. That should be telling enough coupled with the fact that all of the crouch-jump rule(s)/clarification are convoluted and incredibly dated (3+years old) and should be addressed. New Rule: You are disallowed from crouch jumping in combat outside of the realm of movement/maneuverability. Examples below. (Recording required) Crouch-jumping and strafing to get around a corner Crouch-jumping and strafing to go down a level/floor Crouch-jumping and strafing to get to an adjacent room/area Crouch-jumping over obstacles Crouch-jumping to climb onto obstacles Easy to enforce rule: More than one crouch-jump in combat results in a warning for FailRP regardless of scenario.

MRP enjoyers...

Description: An LVS Addon that provides 10 helicopters with individual loadouts to provide variety for events (both RP & OOC), file size is 126.778 MB, and could work in conjunction with the parachute addon. Reasoning: Ideally this would provide more RP situation material with Soviet & US Helicopters, rather than just the “russian school bus” helicopter from the current base LVS addon. If we want to do an aerial assault then we could, over welding turrets with a VJ base spawner to the current LVS, in hopes it works fine. (Usually the turrets bug out, or accidentally kill friendlies.) Additionally, this can make a convoy/assault event more intense due to not only ground but a well armed air unit flying overhead to defend/attack the opposing side, following that it’s within RP to engage the units. Having flown each of the helicopters & using our current ones for RP events, it’ll greatly improve our current amount of assets within Task Force activities (USASOC) & AFGSOC, an example being to retrieve a black box from a Mi-24 Soviet helicopter that’s still armed. Ideally due to the fire power each one packs, a GM+ / T.Admin+ should be observing during the event, or to give the green light. As cool as they are, there will need to be limitations, in order to avoid potential MRDM & Server Crashes.

(include any proof): https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/181z9GUwl6WIhN/xUdhiCM5d3q8?invite=cr-MSxoNmosMTI4MDExNzk0LA I was reported for the clip above in which I was shown crouch jumping and strafing to get around a corner as quickly as possible. I clarified in the sit that this was not malicious and is a pretty natural movement on gmod and source games alike especially in terms of bhopping, surfing, etc. I tried to also clarify that what was shown is incredibly similar to strafing and crouching to go window to window in cons, crouch jumping over barriers, etc all of which have a commonality being non-malicious but opportunistic movement. Why should your warn be removed?: In the very sit I was in the Admin reporting me, Papamid, had referenced the rule as once taking damage you are no longer allowed to crouch jump at all though Towelie, the Smod handling the sit, said that you could crouch jump in combat but only exclusive to getting over barriers. This then prompted the sit to conclude but maybe 10minutes later Smity had made the decision it was crouch jumping. Additionally, the only reference to this rule existing at least from what I was shown in the sit by both staff members was it, apparently, falling loosely under the FRP rule as well as a post from 3 or more years ago. Due to the ambiguity of the rule my warning should be removed and my suggestion heavily considered for acceptance so as to avoid further confusion and wrongful warnings. Below is my suggestion in regard to the rule which has additional information and threads to reference the minimal existence of this “rule.” EDIT: The only tangible thing on the forums pertaining to crouch-jumping is the thread below. (Which I hadn't realized is in the denied section anyway)

+1 Active on server and doesn't cause any problems

The way I used to enforce it was crouch jumping during combat, for the most part. If you are engaging someone in combat or trying to flee combat and there isn't something to jump over in your way necessary for your escape, then crouch jump should be FRP. If this is what you're saying then +1

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.

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.

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!

Fairly certain most of those servers are defunct now. Why should we choose you over other applicants?: I would be a great fit for the staff team for numerous reasons, least of which is the fact that I play during the ungodly hours when little to no staff are on. I enjoy being an active player on the server and will regularly go out of my way to teach/help new players in the game. I spend WAY too much time in Garry's Mod so I will be able to dedicate a large portion of time to staff duties. I am well familiar with the rules and constantly push others to familiarize others when I see them unknowingly commit an infraction.

Nice app +1

I was the person that made the call on this, The reason of why crouch jumping is only allowed for jumping over objects is because of this exact reason. Sure was the intent malicious, no. But did he break his hit box to get an advantage and get to speed around that corner, Yes. Even though the point of what you did in the clip wasn’t intended to break your hit box but that’s what happened. I agree that it needs more clarification, I’ve already touched on that with other people. Anyways technically there is not a direct rule regarding crouch jumping. But it is something that has been known for a very long time to be FailRP. Which what you did was very FailRP. I would like to also mention a post from 2 years ago. yes i was still staff then, Like I said the unwritten rule needs clarification. Even though it was written before but got removed at some point. A lot of things fall under failrp. That wouldn’t be written. But anyways "Intentional Crouch-Jump Spam and Crouch Spam= FailRP | Crouch-Jumping during war or a RP scenario is FailRP unless it is to get over an obstacle. Recording needed before warn" and in this instance of what you did it wasn’t over or onto an object.

Confirming my Referral. +1

Yes and, unless staff protocol has changed, this is historically NOT how rules as specific as crouch-jumping, basecamping, fast fire exploiting, using snipers in peace time, etc are enforced or implemented. They don't just coincidentally fall under a blanket rule. They are clarified and made clear in the MOTD or, like mentioned in our staff sit, through an administration post. (Ideally not one from 3 years ago where half of it isn't relevant or has been since overruled. BUT that requires proactive and attentive staff/management) Your paraphrasing me incorrectly I said that this isn't how rules like this are typically enforced and that it doesn't make sense for an obscure ambiguous rule to be substantial in determining if it is enforceable. You yourself cited a post in that sit from 3 years ago with people even at that time being confused on the rule and having different interpretations. (Which was like the whole point of what I was saying and indirectly gave me a source to reference) This, unless staff protocol has changed, is also false. Precedent isn't set in sits because if it were, a T.Mod could set precedent or really anyone with any staff rank could. There is a reason why rule implementations, precedent, etc go through the proper channels in administration/management, to then be made official through forums, and then they are enforced. (You also mention in your post that "I, myself, have been warned for crouch-jumping in war and I know the what to do and what not to do" which implies that I have to ACCIDENTALLY break the rule to even know that it exists to the extent that it, apparently, does which is not healthy between staff and players. Additionally, I hadn't been warn for this prior verbal or officially so genuinely couldn't have known unless I remembered that obscure 3 year old thread ) You say "certain ways" but based off of your replies and in the sit there is only one "way" (unless you opt to clarify) which is to get over obstacles which leaves anything and everything else open ended. Additionally, I said at like the start of the sit that I knew crouch-jumping in combat wasn't allowed, as in crouch-jumping in the open, but again wanted clarification as to what extent given that you gave one definition of the rule and the Admin, your superior, gave another. You, again, are misremembering or intentionally misrepresenting what was said in the sit. I never contested whether or not the rule existed just to what extent it covered movement and maneuverability in combat. All of the stuff referenced in the sit to back the warn initially fell flat given that even back then it was ambiguous. So you can concede and agree with me, as the person initially handling the sit, that the rule needs to be more in-depth and because of this exact situation it should and would be addressed. But you can't be rational and reasonable enough to recognize that in this case, and likely others, people were warned for this exact thing with no ability to know that it actually is against the rules or to what extent. No offense but that seems like the inverse of staff operations and a lack of accountability. (This just makes the dynamic between player and staff even more unhealthy and honestly undesireable) EDIT: Funnily enough you, coincidentally, forgot to mention that that corner in your screenshot that I strafed around and behind wouldn't have been possible without crouch jumping. (Taking it as wide and as fast as I did would be nowhere near as fluid or possible without it. This is something you can literally reference to in the medal clip used to report me.)

+1 computer loves oreos and pickles

Yeah I am largely in agreement with this just that if we allow strafing/crouchjump strafing in cons it should be tolerable elsewhere especially with how detrimental to movement it is in and outside of cons though cons does see it considerably more. (Either by strafing down levels vertically like on previous iterations or both vertically and horizontally like on the current map) As it is now it's just odd to enforce an unwritten rule with as many contradictions as it has both in writing and in practice ingame. Yeah in my opinion, and this is pretty general, as long as the crouch jump isn't malicious and is actually being used for movement as opposed to breaking your hitbox you should be g2g (while also not crouch jumping more than once.) I.E. you see somebody crouch jumping in the middle of the open as they are getting shot then obviously that isn't allowed so you record and report. Whereas if you are crouch jumping to say get over something, get around a corner fast, go down a level/across buildings in cons or elsewhere, etc etc should be simply accepted as mechanics existing in the game and are ultimately learned and practiced to the point where anyone can do it. This is exactly the case with double and triple jumping through the bug that exists with the antibhop addon we have on the server. Technically, anyone who double or triple jumps should be getting banned for exploiting/warned for failrp given that it is a bug and arguably gives an unfair advantage to those aware. Though we know this is not the case and rather has been encouraged and accepted as an additional mechanic much akin to that of standard movement mechanics existing in source games. (Just like everything mentioned on this thread, with the exception of the obvious crouch jumping in the open, as well as warn appeal) TL;DR I think the rule implementation is a given since well it isn't written anywhere on forums with the exception of a 3year old post(s). However, as for rule implementation/clarification I would think it would need to check a few boxes so as to avoid eliminating components of combat that make it fun. I.E. allowing for crouch-jump strafing, getting over obstacles, maneuvering, and disallowing the MALICIOUS use of it in combat as opposed to punishing people for simply playing the game normally or whatever. (Especially if we allow and accept bug(s) as movement mechanics but disallow this) IMPORTANT - I just noticed the only mention of this officially on the forums is also in the administration "denied section." This is most certainly not supposed to be enforced if it is in the denied section without a follow up post reestablishing the rule. (Which there isn't atm)

I was one the one that had taken the sit. During the sit, Jackal brought up that getting over obstruction and going around a corner are both maneuvering the map and it falls under the same category. I proceeded to tell him that crouch jumping is unrealistic, it breaks your hitbox, and you used it not as it was intended for. He asked where it was in the rules, I said it falls under FailRP. He continued to disagree with me and Pigeon and said that it's intolerable that it isn't in the rules. However, I brought up the fact of precedent and enforcing it. I, myself, have been warned for crouch-jumping in war and I know the what to do and what not to do. This is all a precedent case and breaking your hitbox to get around cover is not something that is allowed within the server. The only complication here is that the rule is indeed somewhat unwritten, but I wouldn't think that would matter as people are constantly reminded on the fact that crouch jumping (in certain ways) just isn't allowed in the server. This has been a rule for a while, I was just shocked how you haven't heard of this rule. I think Smity is correct with warranting the warn, however a change in the rules documents should go more in-depth when it comes to things like these. To sum it up, the warn should stay, the rules should go into depth. This is the corner that he jumped around. (No obstruction blocking someone from getting around the corner)

(I'm on mobile and it's not letting me quote properly) Way I would have decided it, you probably would have been fine or as long as you weren't shooting while crouch jumping. I haven't played this map but if it's anything like any of the previous renditions of Cons then your maneuvering should be fine too. But this isn't about my opinion as former staff. What you said about the old rule might be viable but again only if necessary like maneuvering or getting over an obstacle. You shouldn't use it for momentary leverage in a fight by breaking your hitbox or to prolong your escape unless jumping over an obstacle.

However, to me, it shows personal and emotional maturity and improvement in every form. To start off when I joined Military RP around 2017 I positioned myself within Taliban now at this time the server was justttt a little more toxic than it is now and that mixed with my immature 13-14-year-old persona was quick in gaining a bad reputation from officers and players alike. For YEARS within the community and others I was disliked by almost the entirety of the North American MRP community and any server I would go to my reputation from the previous would precede me therefore negatively influencing others in the community I was in at the time. I had almost 0 friends or supporters on this stupid video game and yet for some reason, I still stayed consistent with how I played copping a ban hopping on the next server making false promises to those who trusted me and in turn, given no room for redemption. It got so bad that at one point sorry not one but multiple points in time I was led to tears over demotions, bans, or in general just the disapproval of others or groups of others. Stay with me! The story is almost over and there's light at the end of the tunnel. Around the year 2021 after taking around a year break and receiving my final permanent ban for toxicity (D_Rose and Aiden) (Not to mention the community ban given by Garnet himself or the multiple other perma bans that were removed with ban wipes). I decided to give the community another shot but this time on Dark RP. I met incredibly kind people such as @JackJJ@ajbedhead and @TheDudeAbides I was lucky enough to not have my poor reputation mudslide into Dark RP automatically shutting me off from any chance at improvement but these guys were probably the most welcoming and chill people I've ever met and I still owe them my gratitude today. Acknowledging my somewhat developed reputation on DRP I thought I'd shoot my shot at appealing my MRP unban and god was it met with -1's. I had about one +1 and that was a DRP player. Clearly, nothing was going to change UNTILLLL @Jake went against all odds allll the negative feedback, and what might normally be a denied appeal became Accepted. Jake was able to acknowledge the toxicity perma ban was false and had little to no evidence to back it up I spent many years with Jake in other communities and this one and I honestly never expected him to make that decision but it came with a catch I couldn't receive any form of punishment on any GG related platform for 3 months. I completed this and began my journey on MRP. To start off I climbed the ranks of the faction I wasn't blacklisted from... Taliban and in that I not only was once again welcomed with open arms by the officers but literally given advice and guidance on improving my reputation on the server this was the first time I was seeing MRP players give me another chance and a shot in the officer corps. @NDB_ and @Kurtle you guys are the only reason I'm still around on GG today and I truly believe if there was anyone else that tried to mentor me on this game then I would've failed blessed fr. However, any slip-up was accounted for and sometimes drastically overexaggerated despite this I persevered reaching 2nd IC until my eventual leave due to some conflicting opinions within the officer corps. This marked the long road of my eventual redemption on the server setting up a meeting with US leaders such as Alexander Conway and the then leader of Rangers Eli they removed my army rank lock and US-wide blacklist (which then gave way to my GA term). In conclusion, I've come to terms with my past I have 'Made Up' with the majority of old players who have also shown great improvements in maturity and players who despised me every second of every day back then now in a way respect me and in that they have earned my respect as well. This accomplishment isn't just me getting an unban from a Garry's Mod server it's me showing drastic and positive change in myself and being able to adapt to environments where all odds are against you and you feel like giving up. I truly believe anyone else in my position would have pushed themselves as far away from the server as possible but I stayed consistent I think the most consistent any other MRP player ever has been. https://forums.garnetgaming.net/index.php?/topic/14385-horses-mrp-ban-appeal/page/2/ https://forums.garnetgaming.net/index.php?/topic/1267-good-bye-garnet/#comment-11343 https://forums.garnetgaming.net/index.php?/topic/1269-small-server-owner-logic/#comment-11382 Playtime: | 11A 2LT Horse has played for 4055:11:40. Desired Rank: As much as I would love to shoot for the stars and aim for a position such as Chief Supervisor or Chief of Staff I don't have any Tier 1 experience and I am willing to take whatever position it is believed id be efficient in. Current Rank in ISI (If Applicable): N/A What does the term Professionalism mean to you?: I could give a short, quick answer and say Professionalism is the respectable and honest manner in which you treat others but professionalism is a lot more than that. It's the way you convey yourself in every aspect not just the ethical ones like (Respect, Integrity, or competence). It's the ability to uphold the most unbias and fair opinion as possible and conduct yourself in a confident-mature manner no matter the situation or heated moment you're in. You have to and need to be able to keep a cool head in situations that require your attention. Professionalism is what defines you and sometimes how 'professional' you are changes you can be in a ts channel with all your friends fucking around but when the time comes when your assistance is needed and others are watching you have to be able to flick that switch in your brain and have enough self-control to make the right informed decisions. Nobodies professional 24/7 and everyone will have a moment when you slip up but with experience, advice, and dedication you can 'reform' yourself into someone who is capable of displaying professionalism and being a figure for others to look up to whenever it is required. How do you hope to improve ISI?: In recent months, it's been clear at least to me that ISI is constantly seeking ways to better Afghan and the server as a whole with suggestions and in-game activities starting to gear towards the country's health rather than a single faction. And honestly, this is what I aspire to do for the server being in Tier 1 position gives you a bigger voice than you'd have anywhere else on the server. You're seen as the most skilled and most efficient force on the server and in that there are a ton of people looking up to members in the faction. I aim to increase Tier 1 - Base faction engagement which will in turn improve the general server health whilst also reinforcing this 'player-to-player' mindset in ISI members. In doing so I will increase the interest for the faction not only on AFG but US. (P.S A strategy I also admired on Delta was 313 or ISI's ability to move as one group or force with members covering each other's backs in a 360 rotation I hope to reinforce combat methods like this and increase the relationship/communication between members in and out of war) Are you willing to completely commit to the Faction?: Yes, and I pray this application will act as a small offering of dedication if I am accepted. What skills do you bring to the table?: My experience as an officer has built up my ability to communicate, lead, and advise others. My upbringing of years on CS_Desert and long-ranged maps, as well as fps games, have increased my proficiency with long-ranged weapons The 'troubles' of my past and my ability to overcome them have laid the foundation for my ability to adapt and resolve any internal or external conflicts whilst also becoming a great judge of character My time as a Senior GM and GA have given way to an increase in roleplay and situational creativity which will be used to keep players interested in both ISI and Afghan as a whole. And finally the restoration of trust in people who once disapproved of me has formed potentially useful connections and relationships with some server leaders. (also giving me access to help/advice from veterans of the community)

I'm super sad to see you go mate! You've been a true legend of the DarkRP server! For those who don't remember, FlameSoul was considered a permanent MVP because he was up there basically every month without fail! Your dedication was second-to-none, but despite being so successful, you're the most down-to-earth and genuine guy I've met I have so many great memories, from just simply hanging out in DarkRP to when you used to make the most incredible CityRP bases for people to come and hang out at. It's safe to say, you won't be forgotten! I hope to keep in touch with you, I'll hit you up to play some games over the weekends. Appreciate everything man, and all the best going forwards into the future

It’s not my department so I wouldn’t know if you have, but have you escalated your concerns to Proggy and/or Garnet? If there are people in positions of power and trust dismissing genuine claims of harassment then that’s an issue that would be dealt with swiftly.

CAN YOU PLEASE HEAL ME? WE'RE 20% ON ALGALON PROG AND YOU AREN'T HEALING ME PROPERLY

-1, extremely stinky /s +1 daniela is great, helpful, and is nice to everyone

Name: Spencer Current Active Ranks: Captain within the United States 75th Ranger Regiment Officer Experience: Held multiple officer positions in SSO, Vega, and Rangers. I have also lead SEALs. Notable Accomplishments: I have built a reputation in the community as a person that can lead confidently and build new players. Playtime: 3,000+ hours Desired Rank: Agent Current Rank in ISI (If Applicable): N/A What does the term professionalism mean to you?: To me, professionalism means conducting oneself in a manner that shows a high level of competence, integrity, and respect for others. It involves being accountable for one's actions, taking responsibility for one's mistakes, and constantly striving to improve oneself. Professionalism also means being reliable, punctual, and adhering to ethical standards. How do you hope to improve ISI?: Throughout my time on GarnetGaming MRP, many great players have taken me under their wing. They have coached me on how to improve in not just PvP, but how to run a faction. How to interact with enlisted to build them up and create a fun atmosphere. I would bring these skills I have learned over the years to ISI. There is a certain expectation that being a part of ISI has and I would do my best to help the faction maintain that expectation. Are you willing to completely commit to the Faction?: Yes What skills do you bring to the table?: One of my biggest skills is my knowledge of PvP on the server. My strength is long range combat (mainly sniping) but I can also do well in close quarter combat. While being an officer in multiple factions, I have learned how to teach players how to improve in PvP in a meaningful way. Another skill I have is being an effective leader. With my pervious experience, I am able to step up into a leadership position with ease and help build it up to a professional standard.

Still lurkin' huh

I quoted the rule, that was used in an appeal while I was staff. Which has been in affect for awhile. If you’re saying Jim Trash was staff in August of 21’ during that appeal then idk. But that’s how crouch jumping warns have been enforced for the longest time. Idk when it was removed from writing but it got removed at some point.

It doesn’t have to be written by any means. Unless it explicitly says you can crouch jump in RP. If anything it says in administration that you can’t jump at all in combat.
