  1. 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. Keep in touch my friend. @stretchyMy Friend, thanks for always being so cool and easy to talk to. A true person thats totally not an AI @Merk I'm sorry I couldn't hold up my duties at the end, its been such a pleasure to serve beside you all these years.

  3. Description: I recently found out that staff can view PM logs. Meaning, if a player were to send another play a PM, staff can view the PM without the knowledge of the player who sent the PM. This log should not be in the game and should be removed.Reasoning: The reason why PM logs should be removed is because of players' expectation of privacy being breached when sending a PM. PMs are there so players can communicate with each other privately amongst themselves and are expected to be private hence the name "Private Message". Players use PMs often to hand over their discord tags or private information that they do not want other players to be knowledgeable of. Having logs for PMs defeats the whole purpose of having the feature as a whole. This is very scummy and sprouts distrust between the players and staff members of the server. I should not be worried about telling a friend that I'm going AFK, only for a staff member to see the PM and know that I'm AFK and raid me. Players are expected privacy when sending out a PM and having a log for that is fucked up and disappointing. Additional Information: If there is a hidden meaning behind this log, please let the community know. There was no such thing as a PM log when I was staff so an explanation as to why staff have this power would be great.

  4. 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.

  5. DarkRP - Mid-Month Staff Roster 15th of March, 2024 ______________________________________________________ In an attempt to fix some areas of our staff team structure that were lacking, we have decided to make some changes to the administration of our server & staff team divisions; You may have seen the following individuals out taking a larger part in our division activities, and doing extremely well in their pursuit, so please congratulate and support our new division leads as they settle into their new roles! ____________________________________ Human Resources Division: BusterBigNut - Administrator | Human Resources Division Director @busterbignut As I've watched you grow and develop, you've consistently raised the bar for what makes a staff member stand out; You have been exceptional at everything you do, from how informative & respectful you are in your trainings to how well you handle yourself in-game, you have not yet disappointed me, and I don't expect you to do so any time soon. For someone who bought staff with 10 hours on the server, I'd say I'm fairly well satisfied. Errol - Trial Administrator | Human Resources Assistant Division Director @Errol THE BIBLE HOBO, I first met you reading scriptures on the side of the road, and watched you create a name for yourself as one of our most proficient staff members and a good friend of many of us. I appreciate all you've done, and the team wouldn't be the same without you here, I've seen you provide a voice of reason, defuse situations, and help everyone reach a fair resolve. Thank you for all you've done, and I'm excited to see where we will go from here. _____________________________________ Chawhead - Administrator | Operators Division Director @Chawhead - One of our last OGs still on the team, I've seen you here and there around the server since way back in the day, you've never been a problem to me or any of the old administration; Your history, efficiency, and personality are all things that we look for in the role of an Administrator, and I have no doubt that you will be one of the best once again. ChrisRid - Lead Moderator | Operators Division Assistant Division Director @ChrisRid - My trainer for staff, and for HR, you've never disappointed us, even though your timezone may be wacky for the location of our server, you always find the time to help us out whenever we need you. You're a true inspiration in the way you conduct yourself with a constantly respectful attitude, and I have faith in you in everything you do! _____________________________________ StarPhantom - Trial Administrator | Game Masters Division Director @StarPhantom - The thing I've grown to respect about you is the way you draw people around yourself no matter what you're doing, and when people are in your presence, they always seem to have a good time. You're the perfect person to run the Game Masters division, and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us! StS GamingCarrot - Trial Administrator | Game Masters Division Assistant Division Director @GamingCarrot - Despite everything else you have going on in your life, you still find a way to give us the time you do, and always maintain a respectful and courteous attitude in everything you do on the server, and for the community. You picked up GM because you wanted to help out, and I know you'll do a great job at whatever you decide to do for the division. I wasn't going to do this at first, but your wilingness to help and make things better has earned you this promotion. EXTRA PROMOTION: Lika - Trial Administrator (missed his promo L) _____________________________________ Resignations & Removals King Mash - VIP (Resigned) StS Dog - VIP (Behavior issues) Thank you to all who were promoted for your hard work, and keep up the good work.

  9. Interactive NPCs The Mac NPC base has been added to our server, and huge portions of it have been rewritten (the majority of it TBH) with optimization in mind. Allowing new players accessibility to useful information, while not affecting veteran players to any measurable degree You'll be able to easily recognize non-player NPCs because of their slightly more realistic posture And lots not forget amazing resilience to fire (thank you Phil) CIS Standalone ranking structure created by @AlexConway All Droid classes have been given a loadout and proper spawnpoints in the event that players are to be RPing as CIS droids in the near future/parttake in events. AFK Rewards By simply staying connected to our server during late-night and early morning (The window of 11PM and 2PM EST) - whether roleplaying and dodging blaster fire, gambling in our lounge, or idling within your battalion's bunks, you will accumulate activity crates full of scraps, credits, or even a large sum of XP points on an hourly basis! This feature is in place to incentivizes some of you to remain on our server during the off-peak hours, in hopes of kickstarting our peak activity times. Starting our days off with 10-20 pop has unfortunately been daunting on us as of late, so help us keep the community growing and we will reward you for it Quest System Imported tens of quests onto the latest revision on the map, as well as created a few new ones In the future months, staff will hopefully part-take in quest creation in order to bring a ton of fun content Inventory Items Selling Removed the ability to sell items to certain vendors, and created buy-only vendors. In order to received materials for your items, you would simply use the "Decon[onstruct]" button from within your inventory! VIPs, followed by VIP+, and MVPs will receive a 10, 15, and 20% bonus deconstruct value for their item (VIP+ and MVP still pending release) BUY & SELL NPC BUY ONLY NPC Missions The missions system from DarkRP has been added onto StarwarsRP, allowing for passive credit gain by completing random tasks, such as finishing up 2 quests, or killing 30 droids in citadel! Model Packs Added Senate Guard and Pirate Models Miscellaneous Removed traces of Christmas Content Compressed downloads to lower downloads by an additional 1GB, we're down a total of 28% of downloads from where we started (11GB down to roughly 8GB) 501st fix for blue pauldron!! Added a 3 second cooldown for dropping items from your inventory 327th K Company : Leader has been given access to the 'Deviss' playermodel Added general optimizations for players, including not drawing auras on dropped items until looked at within a close distance Binocular items were turned undroppable due to being exploited

  10. Yeah we made a lot of changes for a good reason, ie: literal racist jokes with the n word in our UIs, provided by an old developer who was black and thought it was hilarious. Times have changed. The hobo swep I think is a bit of a stretch, and if it’s pushing your buttons/making you uncomfortable, respectfully, Garry’s mod is just not the game for you. I’d suggest you go play Roblox.

  11. In-game name: StS computer Discord username: (ex: merk.gg) newsreporter Age: 14 I GOT THE GREEN FROM BIG MAN MERK SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:1:425619557 Active Warns: 0 Timezone: EST Current Playtime: StS computer has played for 724:53:31 Do you have access to Discord and a microphone?: [YES/NO] Are you a member of the Garnet Gaming DarkRP Discord?: [YES/NO] Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?:[YES/NO] Referral(s): [What administrator recommended you to apply?] Whiskey, BusterBigNut, Derpza, Hydra, Chawhead, Gabbox, Recon Past experiences as staff: [Optional] I was staff on here for a good bit, eventually left due to overdoing it 0-0 Why should we choose you over other applicants?: [minimum 2 paragraphs] You should choose me over other applicants because I was here before and with my confident self I would say I did a pretty damn good job at being staff. I actually helped out new players, was on the game, had good relationships with (most) of the players, and I properly did give it my all. Now even though this time I wouldnt be on as much as I was before, I will still be on enough for it to be properly noticeable. I went before from legitimately having nothing to do all day except for this with little to no friends to now where I work on actual things in life and im happy about that. Now off from my little bs rant and back to why you should pick me. I am nice to people who are nice to me (respect is earned however I am able to keep my composure VERY well), I can help people that are in need because I know things about the rules very well, and I can help give people a boost in the right direction with a positive first experience. Even if someone isnt new to the game I can still light up their day and time playing the game just by being a generally nice person. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans/?steamid=STEAM_0%3A1%3A425619557 Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: the other one wont paste How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Not exactly sure but I have basically whenever im not working on shit or hanging out with friends If you have any, what hobbies or activities are you involved in outside of Garry's Mod?: Fixing motorbikes/cars, climbing buildings, I dabble in parkour, and a bit of basketball/football Did you read the staff rules?: computer

  13. ACCEPTED Thank you for your appeal. After a careful review by our Operator Division, we have decided to remove/lift your ban. The decision to remove your ban and accept your appeal is due, but not limited to, the following: I would first like to state that @DiegoZavier was the one who banned you for ban evasion not @Proggy. I need to make it very clear that this is an uncommon thing we do here, so me unbanning you should instill in your head and educate you that turning a 2-week ban into a permanent ban and being banned for 3 years to the date is enough to make you reconsider your actions in the future! This will not set a precedent for future members who are looking to get unbanned from being permanently banned from the server as this is not a place for apologies! You are unbanned as we speak. Thank you for your appeal and we hope to see you in game!

  14. I'm the one who will ultimately have to work on these features/implement them, but I genuinely think the whole "vanilla/nostalgic" feel reasoning is a bit redundant/silly. For god's sake, it's an automated timer to type in the /lockdown command, what here would break your immersion or bring the server to non-vanilla standards ;(

  16. As explained last month, our optimizations updates are now officially done, and in the future please expect strictly content related updates with new roles that we have planned! can't wait for the average DarkRP server to start copying our unique new roles soon. Going to have a phasmophobia-like ghost husting system for bored prestiged users. Server Roles NEW Pianist New Can spawn in a donation box and playable Piano Given the Pianist the capability to physgun their own Piano DJ Added Donation Box Hobo XP has been added as a feature of Dumpster Diving High levels Hobos spawn in with fists Server Content The entirety of our server's content has been compressed down to 250MB utilizing the first Python script I had written in years Our no downloads tag stands true, as we now have literally less than a minute of download times upon initial connection for our average client! https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3146590198 By doing so we did not compromise the quality of ANY of our addons, instead, we added more content Text Screen Tool Re-written with optimization in mind Added a 78 character limit per room to textscreens in order to avoid mingery Logging Suite After many months of trying to further develop our logging system to be more robust, I threw the towel and decided to re-adapt a logging system we used on MilitaryRP back in 2017. This logging system features scene recreation, allowing staff to know each and every detail that took place in a firefight, allowing them to make more educated decisions and call out those scummy liars amongst you guys Poop System Added a chance to deliver a healthy white baby when pooping Poop cooldown has been reduced from 35 seconds to an average of 17 due to popularity PM Notifications Updated to be reflective of the notifications found on our StarwarsRP server Server Restarts Added automated notifications to allow a 10 minute grace period to those unaware of a restart coming up Bugs and Miscellaneous Fixed COVID infection persisting after a player's death Removed the ability for Drug Manufacturing jobs to utilize /mug Removed a very peculiar word from the Crack purchasing NPC Corrected issues where players could unbind retry, and thus avoid being removed from the server when banned Corrected issue where prisoner model would persist after being released from Jail Removed the ability for the mayor's wife to be arrested Corrected issue where Keypad could be faded via the fading door tool in order to avoid being raided Re-wrote the command /removeprop for Admins+ The F4 Menu now reflects the correct content pack for our server For Mac users, or Windows users without F keys, the commands /ps and /pointshop have been added in order to open Pointshop

  17. Ya’ll I’m fr so happy I wondered upon this great fucking community. I’ve grew so much as a person in these years of interacting with you all. I joined in one of the lowest times of my life and some of you know what I’m talking about. I’m the best version I’ve ever been these days and it’s only up from here. I’m talking like I’m leaving the server but THIS IS JUST A RESIGNATION! ya’ll know I’ll be on from time to time still I really ain’t going no where. I’ll haunt this server for as long as it stays up for all I’m concerned Love all of you, thank you so much for all the kind words

  18. Genuinely crazy how much people get emotionally involved over a ban in a video game by a !!GAY!! dude lmao... AJ's entire crew having a meltdown in their discord server for the past week fr made me depressed. You'd think a dude in his mid 20s and his little butt buddies would have sorted out the homophobic tendencies by now...

  19. ACCEPTED After deliberation with the DarkRP Administration Team, we have decided to accept your Staff Application. This is largely in-part to some, but not limited to, your colorful reputation, your previous staffing experience, and your well-done application. I find it very refreshing to see so much effort put into this step of the process~ I hope you carry yourself the same way in all of your pursuits as you did within this application.. Welcome to the DarkRP Staff Team! We're looking forward to getting you trained and having you on board! Please do not use any commands/permissions until you have been trained, I will be in touch with you to begin your training.

  20. In-game name: Triad SteamID (https://steamid.io/): 76561198127570151Staff members in-game name: Honestly its been like two years and I cannot remember. It might have been proggy.Staff members SteamID (https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans) (/id (name): I can't get the steam id from him because I think he retired? Date & Time of incident: I can't remember specific dates, but I believe it was back in March of 2021Timezone: GMT-10Ban Reason: Ban evasion How long were you banned for?: PermanentlyProof of Ban: https://gyazo.com/0bd01be2893130d22e7362bde5e5678dWhat happened? (include any proof): I remember after I resigned from my senior moderation position, I decided to fuck around and mass RDM people. I was banned for two weeks but decided to make another account, and was caught so it turned into a permanent ban. I believe that I learned from my lesson after 3 long years of growth and taking a break from the game. Being that I used to be a moderator and a lot of the people back then loved me, it would be nice to experience the server again. Though a lot of the OG players have moved on I would still like to build a tiny reputation, meet new people, and NEVER mass RDM again. Anyway, that's my ban appeal, and I hope to be forgiven for my mistakes. Garnet Gamers For Lyfe.

  28. Community-Wide Management/Executive Roster, Spring 2024 Good Evening Garnet Gamers, This roster is a bit early, but I wanted to showcase before the main promos come out, that the individuals listed here have gone above and beyond in their positions and are worthy of special recognition (a few days early). Server Directors @Harus > StarWarsRP Director Continually over the past 5 months as StarWarsRP Manager, Harus has been an integral part of the StarWarsRP Executive Team and taking charge of the community to ensure its successful growth. Harus has redefined what it means to be a good staff member, never afraid to support his staff team or support other staff teams beyond his own. Harus is known by every player on the StarWarsRP community, and regarded as a stable leader for the community, which is previously did not have. For all his hard work, dedication, and sound counsel - I'm pleased to make him the next StarWarsRP Director. (Keep an eye out as you will see this name in the coming months, as he shows no signs of stopping or slowing down!) @Merk > DarkRP Director Merk picked up DarkRP in a very tumultuous time, but never let it phase him. Over the past several months, Merk has been increasingly more dedicated to the DarkRP community. Merk constantly displays immense fairness, stable leadership, and a unique impartial leadership viewpoint which DarkRP unfortunately has never gotten the chance to experience before him. Recently, Merk has successfully rebuilt a majority of the DarkRP Administration Team by restructuring it from a prior top-heavy, isolated, disaster state, to a more even/fair, multi-contributor team. For these reasons, the next Director of our DarkRP Server, was a clear and easy choice. Managers/Lead Admins @Quads > StarWarsRP Manager Quads has been another large voice of reason within the GarnetGaming Community, both his home server and beyond; routinely he is always available to assist in any way he can. Within the StarWarsRP community specifically, he heavily focuses on bettering our playerbase and their overall experiences. 'Unfortunately', most of what Quads does is widespread and common knowledge within the StarWarsRP community, so I find myself at a loss for words beyond: "Congratulations!" @Failed401 > StarWarsRP Lead Administrator Phil/Failed has been a rising star within the StarWarsRP community; coming from the Gamemaster Team, where he took immense care and dedication to the server, he's progressed and grinded his way up the Administration ranks. Phil continues day in and day out to provide assistance to new staff, gamemasters, command, and new players in general. Similar to the previous names, Phil is far from done within the community, so you can expect to see his name some time soon. @Theos > StarWarsRP Lead Administrator Theos is no stranger to being an executive within Garnet, so when it came time for Harus to select some Lead Administrators to help them run the StarWarsRP Administration Team, this was a natural frontrunner. Theos not only brings previous experience to the table, but a skill to speak one on one to the playerbase to continually grab feedback to improve the community. Thank you to all of you, who continue to support your servers and their respective communities! @Nutter and I so gratefully appreciate everything you do!

Description: Whitelist the following props under Plastic Props, so long as they do not cause server instability issues or crashing problems: models/hunter/tubes/circle2x2.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle2x2b.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle2x2c.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle2x2d.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle4x4.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle4x4b.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle4x4c.mdl models/hunter/tubes/circle4x4d.mdl Reasoning: A lot of precise plastic prop builds, either as a hobo when making fancy designs or when creating a clean looking base, requires circular/round props for detail. However, options for round props as it stands are limited. You can use the trainstation_clock prop or wheels today, but neither are sized correctly when building something thats a 2x2 or 4x4. I believe allowing players to spawn the following round props from the plastic props menu (see screenshot below) would allow infinitely more creative freedom when building a cool shack, a neat prop art, or a well-designed base. However... I did see that last year, Garnet warned props from the Tubes list menu cause server instability issues. As such, I request we whitelist only the round props from the Tubes plastic prop menu, so long as they do not cause server crashing issues. I know my ability to make cool builds would benefit as a result, along with countless other players as well. Additional Information: The props in question:

  30. In-game name: SerotoninSteamID: https://steamcommunity.com/id/SerotoninBrawlhalla/ Staff members in-game name: Not sure but I am pretty sure it was Smity?Staff SteamID: Zero clue but probably Smity. Sorry I don't have a ID to provide Date & Time of incident: Roughly 1 1/2 - 2 years ago, I don't have an exact time sorry.Time zone: PDTBan Reason: A multitude of things such as lying about my identity to members and friends of the community. Lying being on the basis of things such as my gender, who I am, ect. How long were you banned for?: Roughly 1 1/2 - 2 years, again no exact time Proof of Ban: I don't really know how to prove it but like I was community ban. What happened? (include any proof): I don't exactly have proof but a lot of it happened over discord text and I don't want to dox anyone specifically. I was not banned over something in game, it was simply a community ban, and the incident happened over discord. Why should your ban be removed?: I think in the time since my ban I had changed and matured. I have gone through things like therapy and have been able to get back in contact with some friends from this community. I am now able to get to know people as my true self and some members of the community want me to return. As well as to be my self among the community. I'm kind of bad at words so I apologize if this is very lack luster.

  31. I would appreciate if you would tone down the attitude buddy. Everyone else here is being constructive and friendly while at that. You've marvelously wasted time refuting each of my claims when everyone else has already elaborated clearly enough that it is not a good suggestion. There was no need for the use of "seethe and mald." In a -1 reply to a suggestion. Thank you everyone else for your informative input.

In-game name: jaren the big memerSteamID (https://steamid.io/): 76561198214981175Staff members in-game name: proggy2Staff members SteamID (https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans) (/id (name): (STEAM_0:0:583196708Date & Time of incident: 2022-11-18Timezone: CSTBan Reason: "cya"How long were you banned for?: PermanentProof of Ban: https://garnetgaming.net/darkrp/bans/?steamid=STEAM_0%3A1%3A127357723What happened? (include any proof): So back in 2022 and prior to my ban, I was a frequenter of Garnet Gaming DarkRP and had been a moderator of the staff team two times. My second time around I was doing pretty good, and then I figured out about how to start bigger printer bases, and naturally I was tending to them. While I was taking reports fairly frequently, It occured to me that multiple other staff members were ingame not taking reports either. So, naturally I said to myself "I've already taken enough reports so I should let the others take some". And after awhile, and some people complaining about lack of reports being resolved, proggy decided it was okay to just raid my base that had a small gap where they could shoot through, and destroy EVERY single printer I had. My reaction was a bit childish, considering I resigned because I felt nobody else was helping on the team and I was being bulled into picking up all the slack that nobody else would do. Not long after, I talked to a fellow member of the community from a nameclan known an ExG. I don't remember their name but they had a JFK profile picture. I was talking to them about the incident in direct messages on my original 2016 account (Since lost to 2FA) and he said "wanna see what proggy looks like?" and I said sure. So naturally after seeing how he looked I decided to take it a step further and direct message proggy, saying they looked like a discord moderator and attaching their face to them. Nothing was shared to anybody outside of the three parties. What followed was proggy proceeding to say "lol" after permanently banning me and disabling my forum account. Considering I spent money on this server, and really had done nothing wrong up until then, I hoped to appeal the ban which I see as overblown.

In-game name: Sam Nella Discord username: hypergeck Age: 22 SteamID (https://steamid.io/): STEAM_0:0:784126034 Active Warns: None Timezone: CST Current Playtime: 213:30:27 Do you have access to Discord and a microphone?: Yes Are you a member of the Garnet Gaming DarkRP Discord?: Yes Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: Yes Referral(s): None Past experiences as staff: -Head Administrator for an SCP: Secret Laboratory server with a 1,000+ player base -Admin for Splats DarkRP -Moderator on a sandbox server Why should we choose you over other applicants?: I strongly believe that my background, level of education, and prior staffing experience make me an ideal applicant. As far as my background is concerned: while employed within the ambulance service over the course of two years I have responded to thousands of life-threatening emergencies ranging from cardiac arrests, narcotic overdoses, and more. As the program director for a Boy Scout reservation I've developed program activities for young adults/teenagers/pre-teens, organized merit-badge instruction, and coordinated a camp staff team comprised of 30+ adults and teenagers. These are all aspects that have significantly contributed to my leadership and moderation style. I firmly hold the belief that both of these positions have helped me hone skills that are vital for the server moderation team such as critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and genuine care for others' well-being. One further asset I am able to bring to this server is that I am trained in mental health emergencies and have years of experience in dealing with the entire range of emotions from every age imaginable. I always try to remain respectful in my interactions with others, and the few times that incidents have occurred, I solved these issues directly through open-ended communication instead of letting the issues fester and become something completely unnecessary. It is my sincerest belief that eighty percent of problems can be solved through non-partisan communication. Though I recently have been settling down with one/two groups in-game, I have typically based with newer players just because I find the idea of meeting and helping newer players fun (one of my favorite aspects of DarkRP is that you can easily switch between actually playing the game and just having general fun with others). I've had absolutely surreal experiences in the little time I have played on this server an am appreciative of each and every one of those experiences. Though I am involved in a large amount of activities outside of Garry's Mod, I pride myself in regards to my time-management skills, and have plenty of time available to dedicate toward the server, discord, or forum. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: No, but I believe I received a warning when I first began playing on this server, prior to fully understanding DarkRP. Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: None How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: I am typically online from 5:00-12:00 on weekdays, and during the weekends I am often entirely free in the afternoons. If you have any, what hobbies or activities are you involved in outside of Garry's Mod?: Outside of Garry's Mod I am employed in a rescue ambulance as an EMT and have been licensed/providing patient care for over two years. One of my other hobbies is being involved in Boy Scouts as a youth, and now as an adult I serve in a council-level position; I am the program director for a large Boy Scout camp that serves thousands of youth ranging in ages from eight to twenty-one each year. My involvement in the scouting program has taught me to love aquatic activities like kayaking and white-water rafting, and during the summer season I occasionally volunteer on the Ocoee River in Tennessee as a rafting guide. I am a volunteer for a hospice agency and generally make companionship visits with elderly strangers twice a month. I have an interest in both avian biology as well as aviation (I have flown a Cessna 172-T!) Finally, I am a sophomore in college pursuing a degree in computer science at my university. Did you read the staff rules?: Sam Nella

  36. +1 I think Computer would be a good addition to the staff team, you've always been a good laugh in my own experiences and you show a true care for wanting to help the team. You do currently have one active warn, I'd generally say it's best to allow active warns to expire (it's only 2 weeks of good behaviour) but otherwise all of your prior-bans are from a long time ago, so there's no issues there. You have some great referrals and prior experience on the team which is awesome, and so I wish you the best of luck! Just reading through some of the other responses here which I thought were a bit surprising: The training is essentially the same as it was previously, albeit with some updated / reworded questions during the interview stage to reflect the current server rules and changes, and without the need for TeamSpeak. Everything else remains the same from the trainees perspective, just as it was when both of us were previously managers. I think if you had any ideas / criticism then it's worth putting them forwards to the managers / HR Director for them to actually be considered. I don't think it's helpful to tell prospective staff members that the training system is "totally out of line". It's actually always been the case that if someone fails both training attempts, they are then removed from the team and have to re-apply (albeit normally after X number of days so the applicant can study). It's been this way since I first joined the staff team years ago and remains the same to this day. However, under previous management things were a lot more relaxed - instead of ensuring potential new staff members where knowledgable by having them pass a test, they were essentially assisted through that stage under the directions of those who were previously running the server. It goes without saying that this wasn't indicative of high-quality staff. Under current management though, this is back to being properly enforced again to ensure the quality of staff remains high. Remember that failing isn't a bad thing, it shows application and even I didn't pass with flying colours myself, it highlighted areas that I need to focus on. The illusion that everyone passes easily and first time is the damage which has been left behind by those who chose not to properly enforce the system before.

  38. Description: Instead of broadcasting, waiting 30 seconds, and pressing the start lockdown, compress it into one button that explains the reasoning for the lockdown and gives a timer until it starts.Reasoning: Most mayors do not utilize a timer and most players won't really know quite when the lockdown will hit. There are a lot of people that will start the lockdown right next to an unsuspecting player just to arrest the second the lockdown goes into effect. This woul make sure that the people know exactly when the lockdown will start, and so that mayors don't wait too long or too little to start the lockdown. if you are wondering about the reasoning part, it is sort of like how you need to put in the reason for arresting someone.Additional Information: [Photos/Videos][/CODE] none

  44. In-game name: 1S ENG SSG 5466 Swane Age: 18 SteamID: STEAM_0:1:441740126 Warns: 0 Timezone: MST Playtime?: | 1S ENG SSG 5466 Swane has played for 4916:52:57. Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: Yes Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: Yes Referral(s): Rook, Jotaro, Fetn, Horse, Xeno, Quads, Husk, Python, Conway Past experiences as a Game Master: SWRP Admin (2020), MRP GM (2021), MRP Admin (2021), SWRP GMx2 (2022/2023) Why should we choose you over other applicants? I believe that my experience speaks for itself. I have been in the Garnet Gaming Community for over 4 years and have seen what works on each server. From seeing the events back in 2020 all the way to 2024, I believe I can provide enjoyable events that have been tested over the years as well as think creatively for new event ideas. Along with this, after being a GM 3 times on SWRP and once on MRP I am not only able to think of new unique events but execute them well with good pacing, enjoyable roleplay experiences, and a good balance of combat and roleplay. My experience allows me to be a good team player in the GM team to help assist other GMs as well as give pointers and any event help that lesser-experienced GMs may need or want with any event. From this, I believe that I have proven myself as a reliable and competent Gamemaster in every position I have been in. I have never been demoted or punished as a GM and have always met the expectations that have been in front of me. Competency when planning events is needed to ensure that the event runs smoothly and to ensure pacing so players cannot speedrun any event but take time to work through and complete the mission. Lastly, I will make sure that roleplay is not only fun for the player base, but also in line with lore and ensure it makes sense in the SW universe. With all of this together, I have been able to and will be able to create enjoyable roleplay-oriented events for the server as well as keep the server entertained during downtime or for more small-scale on-world events. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: N/A How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: Several hours a week. In your own words, what are the responsibilities of a Gamemaster?: To provide entertaining and enjoyable roleplay scenarios for the community. Describe how you would contribute to RP as a part of the Gamemaster team: I would contribute by putting deep thought into each event for any roleplay scenarios, integrating lore into events, and creating stories/campaigns for the server. Explain your single most creative idea for contributing to the RP environment of the server: I believe something that is quite overlooked by GMs is integrating things from lore and in-depth RP scenarios for the server. I would contribute by providing this. Please list and explain 5 unique event ideas of any scale: 1. Sandstorm Skirmish - (Large Scale Off-World) rp_geonosian_canyons In the ever-expanding war with the CIS, the 19th Battlegroup led by Rear Admiral Finon Honall is on assignment on Geonosis breaking through the canyons of a Geonosian stronghold. As they push forward, they are stretched thin, and the GAR calls upon the 34th Battlegroup to assist in retrieving crates full of ammunition and rations for the 19th Battlegroup that were shot down a few rotations ago. The 34th Battlegroup is assigned to find and retrieve this important cargo and bring it to the rendezvous to allow the 19th Battlegroup to continue their mission. The 34th arrive and are split up into 3 teams. Squads one and two are assigned with exploring the deep canyons and finding and retrieving the cargo. While the 3rd squad comprised of SOB and ARC Troopers are assigned to locate and destroy the AA turret that continued to lay down blaster fire on incoming Republic Shuttles. As they move out the groups are ambushed by droids that are on the flank of the 19th to attempt to bring their assault to a halt. The 34th is assigned to destroy any flanking CIS and to retrieve the cargo. As they fight through, they retrieve the cargo, find consoles, are continually ambushed, and find Clones still alive left behind by the 19th Battlegroup. Squad 3 completes their mission by destroying the AA Turret, all cargo is retrieved, and all traces of CIS combatants in the sector are taken care of. The Troopers retrieved from the 19th Battlegroup are medically treated and returned home to their respective battalions. 2. Operation Silent Strike - (SOB + Battalion ARC On-World) CIS Anaxes After a short yet stealthy reconnaissance mission from SOB, intel suggests that CIS Commander Xerius Ugg was rumored to be spotted on the planet checking up on the CIS’ progress on the planet of Anaxes. The 34th Battlegroup calls all SOB and Battalion ARC Troopers to the NCC and is prompted to devise and execute a plan to assassinate the famed CIS Commander, Xerius Ugg. Clones can approach this however they would like. However, I would allow them to conduct their plan. If they attempt to be stealthy, I will eventually make them get caught. They would then have to engage a wave of tanky Elite B-2 Battle Droids as well as Commando Droid Snipers in hidden locations. If they attempt to simply push towards the FOB and kill him, they will have a much tougher time reaching the Commander. Either way, they will face barricades, land mines, and consoles with intelligence that they can retrieve, as well as have opportunities to sabotage future CIS advancements through planting explosives that will be provided at the beginning of the mission. Once the Commander is reached and executed, they will have to clear holes through heavy CIS contact to escape and return to Anaxes unscathed. (Other info: Comms will be jammed for the event, proximity chat only. Droids will be on high HP and high difficulty). 3. Unified Front - (Large Scale Off-World rp_balarikan (Balmorra) On a quiet day on the planet of Anaxes, the NCC Holotable rings. After answering it, the 34th Battlegroup is greeted by Fleet LT Gemar who has an assignment from the Fleet. According to Republic Intelligence, the CIS has reclaimed sector 7 of the planet of Balmorra which has been an unoccupied zone for the majority of the war. After the 9th Battlegroup lost hold of the area, the 34th Battlegroup was assigned to retrieve intelligence and retake the sector for the 9th Battlegroup to step in and hold it down after the mission's completion. Battalions will be split up for specific assignments. 501st and 212th: Reach the CIS Command Center, reclaim it, and retrieve any CIS intelligence that can be found there. 327th & SOB: Locate the CIS Databank. Heavily guarded by CIS forces to retrieve a prototype that Republic Intelligence caught wind of. 104th & CG: Locate the whereabouts of a CIS prison on-planet. Multiple clones and a Navy Crewman are alleged to be held captive. Retrieve all clones, and clear out CIS Forces. (Possible hostage-negotiation) 41st: Assist 501st and 212th, then destroy the CIS supply cache on base. Once all objectives are complete, all forces will RTB and return to Anaxes. 4. Operation Urban Freedom - (Small Scaled Off-World) rp_destroyedcity_final After a devastating attack on a small city on the planet of Troithe, the 34th Battlegroup is called upon once again by Fleet LT Gemar to head to the planet and clear out a small group of CIS Forces that have wreaked havoc in a small city. The clones are warned that there is a heavy presence of civilians in the area and that medics will be providing aid to those whom they can. A medical tent will be set up at the LZ to bring injured civilians and treat their wounds. The clones must navigate through the civilians, destroy the small CIS FOB, and clear out any remaining droids. Once all CIS are cleared out of the area, they will hand over the rest to the local military to deal with the destroyed sector of the city. 5. Signal Silence - (Heavy ENG RP Small Scale On-World/Base Attack) Anaxes Following a small CIS base attack, the 34th Battlegroup realizes that their comms is malfunctioning and must be being jammed by something on the planet. After organizing a patrol, a group of clones head out on a patrol and find a small amount of CIS contact at each FOB along with commando droids. As they clear them out and search the FOB they find 3 unique jammers that are hardwired into each FOB. Engineers are called upon to deal with the problem. They are faced with a multitude of issues such as their data pads being overloaded when they attempt to connect them, the jammers being made of a heavily plated durasteel, unable to be broken by blaster fire or weapons, and waves of firewalls that are attempting to lock out any Engineers solving this issue. As the clones try to figure this out, the CIS ambushes the base to destroy the already vulnerable clones. The Clones push back but a small force of Commando droids can get into the base causing more issues for the clones. Once engineers eventually solve the issue, the comms will be online and the 34th Battlegroup will push back the remaining CIS forces back into CIS-controlled Anaxes.

In-game name: fuqbichz4richz Discord username: salvadorgaltieri Age: 21 SteamID: STEAM_0:1:87859036 Active Warns: N/A Timezone: PST Current Playtime: 333:40:33 Do you have access to Discord and a microphone?: [YES] Are you a member of the Garnet Gaming DarkRP Discord?: [YES] Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?:[YES] Referral(s): BusterBigNut Past experiences as staff: In early 2017 I had staffed a since-defunct Jailbreak/TTT server network (SkyZ) of several years, whereas I achieved the highest possible position for someone under the age of eighteen, being superadministrator. Our server was operated under ULX and TeamSpeak, though I have since found out that the DarkRP server does not use ULX. Our position ranking was similar to that of most Garry’s Mod servers, especially those of the past, where there was a trial position that then escalated to moderative positions with enforceable commands, followed by administrator, superadministrator, and a superior administrative position that was under the banner of S. Admin who acted as the Manager of our server. Altogether, it took a couple years to reach the position that I held because our Jailbreak server was (at the time) the most populated of its kind, and they acted selectively - in time the network depreciated in players, and eventually it was no longer economical to support the servers, especially as Jailbreak was becoming an archaic gamemode, and so we were shut down in early 2021. I had not since played Garry’s Mod seriously until joining this DarkRP server. Why should we choose you over other applicants?: There is no explicit reason as to why I am deserving of this position, as I’m just another player of this server who follows the rules and engages with all those who will listen, though of that I am sure that I stand out amongst a crowd. I do not play this game the same way that others might; I do not base, I do not print money, I do not buy guns. I very, very much enjoy building and manipulating props because the physics of this game are so intricately woven for a Source Engine relic. I had taught some people on this server constructive techniques (building bases, fading doors, one way doors, one way props, gear manipulation, clipping methods) and general server properties (quickwant and unwant, inventory swep commands, door ownership and management, prop-binding) and I redeem a lot of gratitude because of the sort of help I offer people. I like to do that. On the contrary, I do not like to use the report prompts because I just never felt the reward of “justice” is served appropriately on plenty of Garry’s Mod servers, and I would like to be a part of changing that. There are moderators of all kinds, in all servers take their position serious - as serious as one should for a labored, volunteer position - though I tend to disagree with the approach that many of them emphasize. I do not believe that these people consider what they act as when they moderate the behaivor of people. They are purposed to create a community that is fair, just, enjoyable, and restored. Punishing people with the blanket forwarding to a series of pop-ups or extensive statements does not always work. Players do not read rules on Garry’s Mod, and I hope that this is not a controversial statement. It is of the upmost importance to corect these people’s actions in an effort to consolidate confusion and relieve the stress of being reprimanded while avoiding the direct, frankly boring, lecture that one can read from an online chatbox. It is not fun to the player, and it is not fun to the moderator to treat this act as a grueling appointment that you want to avoid. Both play to pleasure on their own volition. As if this is relevant, but I am an educative instructor for fellow students of mine as my local college, and this is the sort of behaivor we preserve and channel when we have to bring about a consideration for themselves and realization and acceptance of their faults while not feeling like they are threatened of their standing. I want to be a teacher first, punisher second. Most people join our server with the intention to play, and if we treat them fairly, just, and personably, they hopefully will stay. I want to be the reason that they stay. Have you ever been banned or punished on any server? If so, Include details: I may have been punished several years ago when I was still an administrator in my previous community, but I have only one experience on GarnetGaming of recent memory. In late November, about the time that I began to play this game again, I had reinstalled Garry’s Mod in a sort of manic episode because of the loss of my relationship with my best friend, and as a method of coping with her absense I decided to join Garry’s Mod servers like this one to prop-block, minge, and otherwise troll everyone I came across because I received a quick hit of glee at the expense of genuine players. Many of the regular minging players I had trolled with were banned in weeks, and my time had come one night when I was pulled into a sit by a certain staff member who I very much disliked because of his nack for the rules. I found a little fight club in the warehouse building under the city in the sewers that was offering $25,000 to whoever wins the brawl. I had come in second place, and the player that I killed for that spot reported me. Because of the theme of the event with no written or verbal cues, I was being accused of Mass RDM and I had no method of defending myself realistically without recordings, which I did not use. I started to get incredibly rageful and I reported the moderator who had me in his sit. The one that took the report settled it immediately, and I knew that my ban was coming and it was then I realized how much I really do like playing this game, and especially with these people. I pleaded with him to just jail me for as many people as I killed, have it be three or thirty, I would accept a jail time of two hours if I needed to to avoid being banned. He accepted my request, and I waited in jail for 15 minutes. Once I got out, I logged off immediately and thought long and hard about abandoning the server in its entirety - but I didn’t. I love this place too goddamn much, and the people that I meet every single day I join are only more motivators to keep joining as my genuine escape from my troubles. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: I have not. How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: I am a full-time university student and act as an assistant researcher to my science department, though because these two are intertwined as the same campus, once the day is over I am homebound for the entire night. I do prioritize my school, work, and relationships more than video games (understandbly) but I still spend almost every hour of my leisure on this server. Usually I am caught on the really late/early hours of the morning. If you have any, what hobbies or activities are you involved in outside of Garry's Mod?: As mentioned, I am a university student studying zoology and education as a double major, and practice home chemistry, exotic animal breeding (think reptiles, fish, etc.), language learning (I speak English and Portuguese fluently, currently am learning Spanish), and some other smaller interests like fishing, futebol, rugby, science and technology broadly, and a few artistic and outdoorsy communities like digital art, music creation, comedy and poetry, as well as rock diving - where I live is has very steep oceanside cliffs, it’s pretty sick. Did you read the staff rules?: fuqbichz4richz
