ACCEPTED
This will be added to the server with 50% of the bail to be paid into the PD vault. This will help ensure that money is redistributed fairly and without the possibility of exploitation, while also encouraging more players to want to raid the PD more often, given that the vault will fill up much faster, adding to the RP element of the PD system.
Please note that accepted suggestions will not necessarily be implemented into the server, but rather passed over to the development team for a second opinion, at which point they are free to decide whether the implementation is feasible

Sorry to hear you're leaving mate, you're a decent guy and you've helped a lot on the server during your time here! I wish you all the best and I hope to catch you around in game

Congratulations to everyone who's worked hard over the past month, kicking 2023 off to a great start and keeping our server a fun place for all
A huge well done to our MVP's @X12_ @Harm @plungy for all of your incredible work, you guys have some crazy sit counts, you should all be proud!
Thank you to everyone for your kind words, and congratulations to @KingMash on also being promoted to manager, he's a truly great guy and of course a true DarkRP legend! I'd like to say though that you can all achieve anything you want to in life, from a position here in this staff team to your dream job IRL, nothing is unachievable to anyone reading this. If you put your mind to it, work hard, overcome challenges that are presented to you in a logical and composed manor, and manage to hold on while life's rollercoaster throws in some twists and turns, you'll be sure to go far!
For those who didn't quite meet the mark, don't be disheartened. This moment marks the start of a new day, a new week, and a new month; what better opportunity to move forwards!? And if you ever feel you need assistance or aren't quite sure where things are going wrong, please feel free to reach out, we're a team and we want to see everyone to succeed.
Here's to another month, cheers

That’s ok, it’s the staff member who issued the ban who’ll need to provide their evidence in order for us to make a roper judgement.

@Ghostieee Please could you provide your evidence

I've spoken to you many times in game and you've always come across as a polite and well mannered guy who seems to get on well with others and abide by the rules. While the reasons that you've given for wanting to join the team wont win any awards, it's not an English exam and I think you've given a reasonable and true account of who you are and what you'd like to achieve. You've got a clean record with no previous bans over the 106 hours that you've been playing on the server which is good. I think that overall you seem like a decent guy and I don't see any reason why you shouldn't be given a chance to join the team. Best of luck

As mentioned in your previous applications, this is a major red flag for me. If you truly had the best interests of the player base at heart, jumping on an alt account to cause chaos would never have crossed your mind. While I understand you regret that decision now, I don't feel comfortable with the idea of you re-joining the staff team, given that this took place so recently. Even in general, I personally believe that anyone who wants to join the staff team should realistically demonstrate perfect behaviour for a decent period of time, given that the sole purpose of the staff team is to enforce the server rules. I don't dislike you by any means, and I'd be happy to have a good laugh with you in game, but as for joining the staff team, it's a no from me.

ban appeal

@StraightWhiteChristianMale I'm going to emphasise the 1st rule listed on the server, which is to "use common sense".
By your own understanding, the text screen and sign you made were "edgy". While not being directly racist, you understood this and continued to display something that you knew the player base would only interpret in the context you had strived to achieve, going so far as to ensure the colour scheme matched the Nazi symbol, just to avoid any confusion. Your intentions were undoubtably clear as to the meaning behind your display.
After speaking with management, I'm also aware that this isn't the first occasion that you've been asked to remove these displays by multiple staff members, you're aware that this isn't tolerated on the server.
Your ban will remain.

Please lock and move.-

More importantly (and an opportunity to re-express my disdain for a pay4staff system): if you can't trust staff of most levels (aside from first rank) with basic tools like prop removal and textscreen removal, then you shouldn't have those people as staff in the first place.
It's important to demonstrate responsibility before allowing greater access to commands and tools which have the potential for abuse, not to do so would be reckless. These 'basic' tools are somewhat unique in their ability to be abused, hence the reason for the suggestion of higher-ranks only. The risks between staff who've bought VIP Mod and those who have applied through the forums are actually equal, it's down to the individual whether they choose to go rogue, and loosing $50 is quite a price to pay for 5 minutes of trouble making which is why is so rarely happens.

I think it would be a great idea for the reasons Shin has suggested. I can understand why it has been restricted, given the possibility of abuse by deleting building / kos signs on bases, but if this ability was limited to a high enough rank to avoid these issues then it would only serve to benefit the community.
-

I completely agree with what Shin said, and to further that, I don't see having additional text screens as a necessity by any means because one has everything covered, however it would be great for people building shops, post office boxes, or decoration for example. Even for normal farming bases, back in the days when I used to base with a friend, I'd put down a comical taunt after the first fading door just for fun.

I think having extra buttons allows for some more creativity when building bases, like for example a post office box for buying printers off people, but then again I'm not sure I see the need to have any more than the current 3 when combined with keypads etc.
-
Neutral
It's just a funny joke role, I don't think there's any harm in keeping it as a higher level requirement given it's just something fun to play as when you get up to that level, plus more reason to want to prestige in the first place. I'm not against it being lowered either though.

It’s super sad to see such an amazing manager leave, the amount you’ve done for the community over the years is incredible! You’ll certainly go down as one of the best staff of all time. Besides that though, I’m just glad to have found an awesome friend here
One of the greatest things about Garnet is the people, and likewise you’re one of the select few who I can say I have full trust in, a permanent MVP.

Have a good read through the staff rules and edit your post when you see what you've missed, if you do then I'll come back and give a proper response

This is a truly awesome update, top work!

I'm not against adding additional weapons, however I feel that a lot of the current ones go largely unused. I think people seem to stick to a select few that they get to know after a while and I'm not sure if adding more will actually offer any real benefit, in fact when I used to play as a gun dealer it was always tough trying to keep track of prices and remember the stock lol.
If there was one or two that you felt were noteworthy then I think it would be better to suggest those separately, but I'm not sure about the idea of adding additional packs of weapons on the whole, given there's great choice already.

Fantastic application, I really like the reasons you've given for wanting to join the team. You've got a ton of hours, with a clean record which speaks volumes of your character. I've seen you active on the server and I don't recall having any issues at all with you. I don't think I need to say much more than I wish you the best of luck!

You've missed something important on your application unfortunately, double check the format and you can edit your application if you wish.
I'll hold off giving a full response until you've fixed that issue, but you should probably to speak to the staff members you've listed as referrals too, after reading the previous comments.

I do actually like you and think you're a pretty cool guy and under normal circumstances I'd be happy to give you a +1 to re-join the team.
However because you decided use an alt to mass on the server after leaving the staff team last time, I'm not sure that you have the best intentions for the server or its player-base in mind, and I'm surprised it didn't lead to a blacklist to be honest. I personally have pretty high standards for potential staff members when it comes to past behaviour, and while I'll try to be fair and reasonable with mistakes people have made in the past, I think this falls outside of what could be considered a 'mistake' frankly.

I think you've got a reasonable application here to be honest. You have a clean record with no warns or bans on the server, you've got more than enough hours in-game and meet all of the other set criteria. From what you've said you're pretty level-headed, and while you're application might not win any awards, it's perfectly reasonable and I like what you've said about how you'd be a good candidate for the staff team. You've since read the rules and you have amended your post which is great. I'm not sure I fully understand peoples comments surrounding your forum / in-game name, as long as it's not offensive or bring the team into disrepute then I can't see any issues. I'd be interested to know a little more about why you were only staff on a MRP server for one day, I think it's too easy to jump to conclusions and there may well be a valid reason for leaving? I don't put that down as a negative by any means until I know the full story. I wish you the best of luck!

As others have said, if you were to build a base for someone and then add them as a prop-Buddy (found under the utilities tab) they can use the Adv. Dupe to copy and save that base to place down later.
In the past I have out down props for people when I haven’t been basing out of my own prop count, like printer racks etc. I haven’t done it for money though so that’s a good idea lol.

Dint mind the idea of a hammer being added. Maybe link an addon that you’re proposing to be used?
I am however strongly against replacing the machete.

The suggested system isn't something that we are looking to add to the server at this point in time.
