The definition of grief so your aware is “ A griefer or bad-faith player is a player in a multiplayer video game who deliberately and intentionally irritates and harasses and annoys other players within the game Also a Rule: Do not harass, grief, or troll players of the community. 3rd Clip: Prop Minge: propminge - Clipped with Medal.tv You can see in this Clip that you spawn a prop to block his movement, (also spawned a prop on the street as a citizen) There’s also multiple instances of you spamming chat, Both during RP and in a sit. There was also a previous sit with you where you constantly spammed chat Here’s An Instance: https://www.canva.com/design/DAGBApMyblQ/rn1JBvdJi-SXN-K1M3dpzg/edit?utm_content=DAGBApMyblQ&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=sharebutton You can also see in this clip that you spammed chat: propminge - Clipped with Medal.tv I can't recall seeing a sit or a report where you asked about a "rule", the rules you broke are basic rules also. Your also a longtime player, who broke multiple rules. i wasn't going to give you a "break" especially when you showed to no intent to play the game in a good manner. You're also a long-time player with Mutiple bans on record even one for harassment! https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/501100286111121448/1223713066911273060/image.png?ex=661ada9a&is=6608659a&hm=8472164301d3256ba7b85e815a064f8be9ce7251e68826034a349315eaec3c03&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=960&height=262 If your unfamailar with rules, i suggest reading the rules again so you don't "accidentally" spam chat, prop minge or use your textscreens in bad faith towards a member of the community. Also your little "hut" looks like its blocking off most of the tunnel which is another rule You may not block off the streets or restrict functionality of any path which is used for navigation around the map Example: Reducing a tunnel into a small pathway, to bypass other restrictions

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.

It was a fun time (again), but I've been going crazy over some shit irl with work and stuff. I wanna thank @Derpza @Payphone @Merk @StarPhantom @xHydrax420x @ChrisRid @Gildarts @Rosie and others I forgot to mention for the amazing time I had on the server while I was staff. I will maybe be on from now and then on the server, and will be free to answer any question about staffing, but I don't like how the servers going. Goodbye y'all. o7

I used to take more clan sits before since I felt if no one else was going to take it I might as well, but lately it feels like I get the stink eye if I accept any StS sits (since I'm in it obviously). I do understand that the rule exists for edge cases where bias can rear its ugly head, but I just don't want to feel compelled to let a sit just rot away because it'd seem in bad form to accept that sit even if any other active non-clan related staff are busy or AFK. -1 to an outright removal, but +1 to revamping or at least making it super clear to the userbase when it's acceptable.

Adding/"Revamping" this rule is moot since a large part of this suggestion is assuming bias is more likely to occur to people who you share a nameclan with, which is not the case. Most staff will always have preconscious bias for their friends (clanmates or otherwise), MANY of them are able to put this aside and look objectively. Very few cannot, so on the very few cases - If you feel the sit was handled incorrectly or with bias, report it on the forums. The sit resolution message prompts you to do so.

Neutral This summarises my position on the subject of clan bias, I think NotDeadPool is spot-on here. Bias is actually more of a subjective issue, rather than a blanket problem. From what I've seen you're either susceptible to bias, or you're not. Those who are susceptible will continue to act the same and demonstrate bias in all scenarios, and it's not limited to their clan friends. Luckily though, the administration team / management team have always had a nack for quickly identifying those who might sway, and any reports they handle (be it clans, friends, enemy's, or otherwise) will almost certainly be spectated. On the other hand, there are certain players who we know will maintain integrity despite being in a clan, and we know that even when nobody is looking they will always make the right decisions. So while I'm not a fan of clans for various reasons, I don't think adding rules specifically about clan-bias actually helps to target the root cause of the problem. Just as a side note, I think 10 minutes is way too long to claim a report in any case

I'm resigning from staff, love, yea I love this server and have been playing for years and have had a lot of memories, i don't like the direction the server is going. bye. @Corbzz@Vortex @snoopi @Hoal @Chinese Man @Hydra @HGEnzo123 @HGPotato @Chicaa21 @Derpza @everyone

The past weeks on Garnet have been enjoyable and entertaining at the same time, this community is something i want to be involved with but when i see people that have NLR, RDM, propblock, fake report, i start to think about how those people are ruining the Garnet experience. Those people make GG look like a bad place when it truly is not. I want people to have the same welcoming experience to GG that i had. When you are on the server i guarantee you will notice me im almost always on and always a helpful person, im always social with the GG community and usually most of the time showing off my comedic side and just 3 days ago i tried to become a staff but i got DENIED. Garnet Gaming is one of my top most enjoyed server on Gmod i always choose to play Gmod than any other game just to be on Garnet because its a getaway from all stress and is a safe place to let my personality go. I remember there was a day when I was that noob, not knowing what to do etc. until I bumped into a few very kind people on the server that went out of their way to show me the what to do. I felt really welcome and that's something I want to do for others. I can also be on during the hours that not many Mods or Admins usually are on. I would love to help out the staff and make things easier for everyone.

In-game name: XO G2-FCT HM-R Major 8823 Johnny Age: 17 SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:180249755 Warns: 0 Timezone: Pacific Standard Time (PST) Playtime?: 1198:26:27. Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: YES Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: YES Referral(s): [What administrator recommended you to apply? Nobody recommended me but I started to regret resigning soon after I did and I was able to start picking my activity back up, realizing I had just acted rashly without having a completely sound mind at the time. Past experiences as a Game Master: I was a GM on Garnet for a bit a few months ago and made my way up to S. GM before stepping down for personal matters. Why should we choose you over other applicants? [minimum 2 paragraphs] I believe that I should be chosen over other occupants applying for this position because with not only my time spent on the server just experiencing events but also having to plan some myself, I have gotten great experience with becoming decisive with plans and have gotten much more creative. Also with having worked with so many of the people on the GM team both as clones and as a GM, I feel like we would be capable of putting on amazing events for the playerbase to enjoy. Another main reason why I should be chosen over other applicants is because I will make sure that my events are known by the server. What I mean by that is my events will be so unique that when I make an event for an off-world or anything of that nature they will know that it is my event. I Believe that I can do this by having a sense of unease as we go through almost all of my events, making sure everyone is always on their toes and questioning some of their actions even if they may be right because they can't tell what is truly going on at all times. They will also have their moments of ease when they know what's going on, but not always. Another reason I believe that I should be chosen is because even though there are plenty of capable GM’s out there on this server you can never have too many because it encourages the creativity of others to go up so that people can stay engaged. Also with more people it just allows for more elaborate schemes to be written up and make everything more interactive for all the players on the server. Because of all of these factors I believe that if you choose to accept me into this wonderful group I hope that I can do the title proud and grow the server even more than it already has. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details I have never been punished on any gmod server ever before. How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: As of right now I have a few hours a day but in a couple weeks I will be able to increase my activity again to what it used to be seeing as my school year will be coming to an end relatively soonish. In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: The responsibilities of a gamemaster are not always to be running things on the server 24/7 but instead to keep the player base entertained and in a way giving them the option to keep moving forward. We are not here to mandate their every move but instead to start a guiding hand and let their creativity run from there to be something engaging for everybody. Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: I believe that I would contribute to RP as a part of the gamemaster team not only through events but also through crucial training such as battalions base tryouts because that is what really brings people into the server. Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server: I believe that as of right now my single most creative idea for the player base would start out as just training for different quals or bats. However on one of these trainings they would happen to run across random data that wasn’t supposed to be there about a series of attacks coming towards anaxes. During one of these attacks they would get information about republic data being leaked to an unknown sector of space. They would then be sent straight there on the venedor and have to take out a CIS Admiral. The Admiral would release the knowledge of who has been leaking the secret republic files. They would finally, to end the campaign, go to Coruscant and take the Republic fleet member and charge him with treason and conspiring with the CIS. Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: [Be sure to include any additional context that may be necessary to your explanation] 1st Event-(On-World Event) (1 EC needed) Start out by going into enemy comms telling droids to set up a makeshift FOB at Athena. From there I would send in a single BX droid (EC) and pods to distract me would go into their base trying to get important information from the holo-table in the lobby. Obviously there will be a shload of clones there to gun the droid down so he will need extra health to actually get to the table and start downloading the data. He will die there never actually retrieving the data but an ENG will gather information from the BX’s head about the location the droid was sent from and what its orders were. Once they have the information they will do an FOB sweep and they will find a heavy resistance from the CIS. There will be a relay dish on the roof along with 2 AA guns on the opposite sides of the roof. Having the EC from earlier now being a TX droid they will be positioned in the small room on the second floor protected by BX’s and B2 droids surrounding a holo-table. The insides of Athena will be scattered with droids trying to hold them back. They will kill the TX and get information about an enemy’s vessel in space that they will eventually have to go to and take out a CIS officer. 2nd Event-(Off-World Event) The 34th Battlegroup is being tasked with taking back a lost space station. They will be sent off in the Venator to reach a Republic space station that was captured by a rogue group of CIS. The Battlegroup must sneak in and take back the base with quiet force until they set up a comms jammer. Once that is set up they are to take out all remaining hostels before relinquishing control back over to the correct republic battlegroup. Maps: gm_lunarbase 3rd On-world-(On-World event) (Only GM assist needed) Starts out with a sudden base attack out of nowhere and after a couple waves tanks will be spawned in to try and take them down a bit more but inevitably the CIS were taken down. After the base attack is pulling back the republic will inevitably do an FOB sweep where they will find heavy CIS retaliation at Olympas where there will be AA guns on the runway and an enemy camp set up in the hanger with a bomb setup but if they don't find it that part does not have to be done. They will take these droids out and go up to the control room where they will find a terminal that a ENG+ must hack through to find information on CIS Anaxes (Off-World event) (1 EC will be needed along with an assist from either the S. GM or a different one) The clones will be sent out by a Naval member tasking them with the capture of a CIS Officer that will be found on the Maleficent's bridge. They won't be given any ordinances for vehicles off the start but they can request fighters once there. They will be sent out to a ventador where they will have to go to the correct cordinece to intercept the CIS Star Ship. Once they are at the correct cordince they will be first hit by turbo-lazers fired from the CIS ship. Once those have stopped vulture droids will be spawned for pilots and pods will be dropped on the runway. When the pilots are in the sky taking care of the droids they will find out about 2 AA guns placed on the hull of the ship above the hangar. Once those are taken care of they will deal with 2 more waves of pods. Then they will board up onto the LAAT/i’s and head over to the CIS ship where they will have to deal with B1 battle droids lining the hanger along with pre-set up barricades and junk in corners. In one of the corners there will be a 4 digit code of 9077 that will let them into the rayshilded bridge where there will be a CIS officer protected by 6 BX battle droids. Rancor will take the officer into custody and transport them back to the republic's ship where more pods will be dropped in a last ditch effort to get their Officer back. Once the republic is finished questioning the Officer the pods will stop and the 34th battle group will return home. Map Codes: Rp_venator_extensive_v1_4 and Rp_anaxes_garnet_v2 (Off-World event) (2-3 EC needed and 1 GM to help with RP/spawning things) The 34th battle group will be sent to Alderaan where they will have to investigate the disappearance of the planet's population. While there they will see that there are dead civilians that the CIS killed while occupying the planet. One EC will be a clone with the CT number CT-3067 who was compromised by the separatist and has been trading secrets and live updates of their location. Right as they find this out the main CIS force will move in, locking them in a position where they will find the other EC who is the oled governor of the planet turned CIS lacky. They will most likely take him prisoner and interrogate him back at the base where he will reveal that a factory is in the makings on the other side of the planet that we are currently on. While in the interrogation the EC “accidently blurts out that the CIS implanted a chip in him that he believes will either kill him, blow him up, or let the CIS track him wherever he goes. Characters needing to be used: Clone EC:CT-3067 Grek CIS Governor: Kai chen Map Codes: Rp_alderaan and Rp_anaxes_garnet_v2

Description: I am suggesting that either the rule for staff regarding taking sits of the same nameclan people be removed or modified to be less of a punishment on the user and more-so an effective policing tool for staff in nameclans. So if it were to be modified, make it so if a nameclan member makes a report then if any people in the same nameclan as the reportee are online and responsive they must utilize staff chat to ask if anybody is going to take that sit, clarifying its because of clan bias. If nobody responds within 2 minutes, repeat the same question and if there is still no response after 5 minutes, the nameclan staff member would take the sit. If a reported person is in a nameclan, a staff member would have to ABSOLUTELY ensure no one was available to take the report prior to trying to take it on themselves. They would utilize staff chat asking if anybody else was going to take the sit. They would do the first two messages in the same time interval, but then they would message any staff members responsive/available on discord. After two different attempts at getting a non-clan member to take the sit they would finally take it on themselves after 10 minutes of no luck from that point. I also believe staff should be MANDATED to document any sits like these with video recordings and whatnot so they can present it should they get reported for clan bias. Reasoning: As it stands, there are a decent amount of nameclan server members actively playing. I know I haven't been back for awhile since my unban, but for as long as I've been back I have not once seen clan bias. Plus, the current rules for this scenario only serve to punish players for being in nameclans and thus they have to wait even longer for a report to be resolved. I have witnessed this firsthand, and it is not fun. Why should we have to devolve to forum reporting users for simple rule violations such as RDM, RDMx2, NLR, and so on. Forum submissions should be reserved for bigger chunks of user violations and this is just how it should be. Additional Information: (I know the nameclan "rule" thing isnt literally a rule but it makes nameclan members simply go "i cant bro im in your nameclan" out of fear of being punished. this just clearly outlines what should happen to prevent that)

-1 I personally am really against this in terms of its outright removal. Clan users generally stick up for each other (obviously) and I don't see the amount of honest gmod dark rp players outweighing the dishonest. Like @Errol said +1 For some kind of revamp, many players in staff and reg are clan members and I could see it causing issues for enforcement esp late at night or early in the day.

a lot of resignations recently..

Description: Remove the option to have a song continue to loop on the DJ radios. Reasoning: I've noticed that DJ's with radios are putting on the same repeating songs and AFK'ing for hours on end, I don't think this necessarily helps the RP of the specific role. Previously the DJ would have to play music over mic, which needs them to be present in game to do so and more so they would play different music. Now what I'm mostly seeing is DJ's play the same song continuously while not needing to even be present anymore. In some cases, because of some songs only playing 30 seconds there have been the same 30 second loop of a song set by a DJ who then leaves to go elsewhere. Since the radio can't be muted and can only be lowered to a volume of "1" in the context menu, it can still be loud if the DJ sets the radio to max volume and/or is a song with maxed volume. This mostly is resulting in the same songs, at large volume, being played in areas players normally gather in, with no ability to fully mute, thus becoming constant background media spam. For as good as an idea as it was to introduce radios, it has slightly started to become a hinderance to the role. There will be 3 DJ's AFK repeating the same song, while other players who may want to DJ resorting to now playing music on the mic outside of the DJ role that I have noticed more often than previously. The video below I just recorded, which shows how even with the slider at 1, and turning it up slightly how much you hear some songs. This one was also on repeat. Additional Information: No.

You love when spongebob talks about jellyfishing Also that video you have, that type of loudness is considered ear rape and is reportable.

I've been thoroughly enjoying DJ's playing car alarms on repeat full blast with no way to disable the audio.

Neutral +/- It is a staff member's responsibility and integral duty to be unbiased, especially, whether documented or not, if they wish to keep their position on the team and with out at least some amount of guilt. I feel as if this will further complicate taking sits for large clans such as StS. Me being the only one apart of PR, I stick what I know works, and that's treating friends like friends when it's not a sit, and treating people like players (although be it friend or not) when in a non rp scenario. Look, I see the idea behind cutting down on potential corruption or being too lenient with particular person. I'm not exactly remorseful with that kind of dealing, maybe sympathetic and empathetic. If you mess up, you mess up. Take accountability. I may see it through that the player decides what happens or I may single handedly make the decision of punishment based on severity and evidence. I'd also like to hear what others think about this.

shoutout my PD

+1 gildarts is annoying with his radio where he replays this fucking spongebob song for an hour

+1 this guy would be a great addition to the team also confirming referral

Again is wild good stuff tho

DENIED Unfortunately, after deliberation with the DarkRP HR Team, we have decided to deny your Staff Application.

Thank you for the time and effort you put into your application. You may reapply in 72 hours.

torq v2 type shit

u still play this bossman

i miss the old robert, shape on the go robert, set on his goals robert, i hate the new robert, the bad mood robert, the always rude robert, big in the news robert, i miss the old robert, the shape up the beats robert, id like to say at that time i wanted to be best friends with robert, and now i look and look around and theres so many torqs, i used to love robert, i used to love robert, i even had the cosmetics i thought i was robert. What if robert made a post about robert, and named it old robert, that would be so robert! thats all it was robert, we still love robert, and i love you like how robert loves robert.

Standoffish is a harsh word to use when I am expressing views from both sides with out being dishearted. That's like saying I am being combative. Perhaps you could call me neutral and not completely sure about it. Rules outlining clan sits is not a bad idea. Perhaps supervision of one of other staff member.

-1 I like to play the same song all day long. Then have people pay me to change the song.

@raqikinda weird for giving ur raid bind abt me to ur friends lol. idk what ur aiming for.

This is a very solid idea. +1

life is going well, make more money than I used to, about to complete my courses in college, relationships with friends and family are doing better however I cannot recall the last day I didn't drink

This is why you don't ingest large quantities of nut meg and play Garry's Mod. I turn my hopes up to the sky I'd like to know before I die Memories will slowly fade Come on take me away!

The question isn't just whether I am high, it's how many drugs am I on? Ahaha

I assumed he wanted to give me money so I said " I'm switching to hobo so you can give me money in a cool way " then he still chases me so I place a prop to block him then remove it thinking we were having fun! He still continues to chase when I switch jobs. Then I walk up to him and he makes a sit which is instantly taken by a staff member. FYI I had a sit as well before this. The sit happened and I was trying to get my point across in chat because I was being ignored then they said you're banned for NITRP and Gunner insulted me then banned me. I haven't played in quiet a while so I'm not that familiar with the rules having to make sits frequently to ask about them. I asked if there was a procedure for being muted and he just banned me for it which is incredibly inappropriate. Sincerely, Toddd
