  1. ACCEPTED While the clip does show you being blatantly homophobic, and is a valid reason to be banned for 2 weeks; I have gathered from speaking with Korn that your sit for this instance of homophobia had already been handled in-game. Making a new report hours later to get a new outcome is not the way to handle the situation, if they were displeased with the result of Korn's sit, they could make a report here on the forums. ________________________________ Your ban will be revoked, but from the long history of bans you have, I would advise against being homophobic in the future; Your ban could be extended due to the repetitiveness of your infringements. (@Toddd Please do not comment on ban appeals unless you were involved in the situation.) @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.
  2. I've never seen you a day in my life, but the application is well written, detail oriented, and doesn't raise any concerns as to why you shouldn't be staff. I could see fit to give this a +1, don't disappoint me.
  3. The only issues I've had with you is your tendency to say things off-the-handle about people who you have a bad encounter with, whether it be in a report or in a roleplay scenario; should you manage to control your tongue and avoid being disrespectful, racist, and/or demeaning to members of our community & staff team moving forward, I have no problems with you being staff again. +1
  4. Confirming my referral. Seems to be helpful to new players, knows the rules and is prompt on reporting issues within the server. +1
  5. DENIED You admitted within your appeal that you prop-blocked in an attempt to gain staff attention for your missing stats, please remember in the future that this is not an appropriate way to contact staff members. If /report was not working, you could have come to the forums or any other medium, (teamspeak, discord, etc.) to contact someone for assistance. ________________________________ I have no reason to doubt this ban's legitimacy at this time, therefore it will remain. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.
  6. -Denied- You have clearly stated that you referenced a player by a potentially demeaning title in an admin sit, while the term "bucko" isn't always used in a disrespectful tone, it certainly can be used as such. Please be respectful at all times within admin sits. ____________________________ Your ban will expire in 8 hours, You only lasted 14 minutes and 30 seconds after being unbanned before you hit the warn limit again, please try to follow the rules more closely in the future. Thank you. @stretchy @Proggy
  7. Your ban has been automatically lifted as the 24 hour duration period has passed. Be advised in the future that ban appeals are no place for apologies, only for unrightful bans. Should you still wish to appeal the warning that caused you to exceed the warn limit, you will find the format here. Thank you for your time. This is the link to the clip for which you were warned.
  8. Description: Add a distance meter or icon on the map (similar to Delivery Locations or Hit/Bounty distance meters) to your stolen printer. Reasoning: If you've ever played DarkRP and had your base raided, you know that stolen printers are a bear to recover. Simply because once someone takes it and claims it, you have to go from base to base to base looking for the guy who stole it before you can get back to the grind, (by means of begging, paying, or raiding to destroy it.) I am suggesting a way of recovering your printer, either initiated by command or immediately after a printer is stolen, add a distance meter or icon that can be seen through the walls to help you pinpoint that pesky printer so you can raid the base it's in and get it back. Additional Information: Immediate con that come to mind is that a notification or prompt that comes up immediately or is visible through walls might annoy people, if that is the case you could make it command initiated. Open to feedback and discussion, just find that many users get frustrated when they get raided and can't get their printers back because they don't know where they are. Thank you.
  9. Neutral: Your application is well written and seems to suggest that you are well-rounded and have a solid personality; The only concern that I have is the few times I have seen you in-game, you have surrounded yourself with unfavorable company, (names of whom I will not mention here because I would like to avoid calling these individuals out.) With that being said in addition to the fact that several staff members above me have no idea who you are, it seems as though you may be a solid candidate to join our team, just not at this very moment in time. Try to get out and meet new people, try new things, and make a little more of a name for yourself before you re-apply. Best of luck.
  10. -1: I don't believe I've ever seen an application with as little effort as this one; I get this isn't a college application but there isn't even one complete sentence on this thing. Additionally, you have not read the staff rules. Make an effort if you want to join the team.
  11. ACCEPTED Player has been banned for two weeks for Mass RDM. ________________________________ @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.

    Ban Appeal

    A report was made with this screenshot on you, we had been dealing with players making "child p-rn" textscreens, comments, and various other references throughout the night. You should be well aware of the legal and moral impact of putting "kids" and "sex" in the same sentence, let alone making accusations against people with no proof to back up your claims. I attempted to speak with you about the situation, but you went AFK. Should administration accept this appeal for being inadequate proof to warrant a ban for this offense; Be sure to avoid making such actions within the server upon your return. Thank you.
  13. I was able to recover evidence from the day of the incident, there's no use in me explaining when you can watch for yourself. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/973308648078069880/1126673358646411315/hitman1.mp4 In this clip, you returned through the base, had your friend open the door and killed boomer and nukes, then tried to kill me, but I grabbed you. (RDM x2/ARDMx1) even though your friend knew very well that I was trying to help fix the base, (You can see my efforts in chat.) Afterwards, I teleported you outside the base where you assured me there was a KOS sign, but the video shows the sign being added after the fact. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/973308648078069880/1126674557877624842/hitman2.mp4 I do not believe there should be any further concern over this ban being issued in error. The only thing I can see that might have been done differently would be the reason being Attempted Unintentional Mass RDM, but as you can see, that's a mouth-full. Thank you. (this post was made possible by the TLG Nukes)
  14. Unfortunately, my hard drive has become full and did not save my clip, but through screenshots I feel I have enough evidence to help piece together the details and events that led to your ban. You were a hitman basing with a citizen in the tunnel outside of slums. (Hitmen can only base by themselves, and their base can only act as a hub for accepting/completing hits.) I had taken a report for failbase, which was because your friend (GoldNova) had keypads that only held open for 2 seconds. You were already killed by the raiding party and decided to break NLR. (see screenshots) When you returned, you had your friend hold open the fading doors and let you mop the floor with all 3 of the raiders and me. See below the screenshots of kill logs done to one of the raiders (all I could recover in screenshot format, but establishes the scene fairly well.) Notice that you broke NLR to kill nukes again, this was the point that you killed everyone inside the base. (as you admitted in your post.) This is the point where I started speaking with you about the mass RDM, at which time you insisted there was a KOS sign, which I looked and did not see, until a moment later when your friend re-added the sign; (a sign you cannot even enforce as you can't base with a citizen.) All things considered, I believe this should prove that there was a reason for me to pull you aside, after killing 4 players inside the base and breaking NLR all while I was trying to bring your friend's base up to compliance with the rules. The reason you were banned for the "stupid" reason of Unintentional Mass RDM was because you were unaware of the rules, your friend removed the KOS sign you claimed to have existed in the past, and you said it was your mistake in our sit. I gave you a shorter ban because I felt you were honestly unaware of your actions and there was no intent to harm. The sit had everything to do with you and your friend, the report was made for failbase, which means that your friend's base did not meet the standards written within the rules, (having a keypad that lasts 2 seconds instead of 6) The proven violation of the New Life Rule and your admittance to basing as a hitman with a citizen, using his KOS sign, and having printers inside is more than enough to warrant a NITRP ban at the very least, but I do feel the provided evidence along with your own statements and confessions in your post should more than suffice to keep the ban in place. I will leave it up to the administration team to decide, should this mere technicality of my software not saving the video showing you blatantly breaking the rules get your ban shortened or removed, consider it a second chance and be sure to read over the server rules upon your return, whether now or in 7 days, thank you.

    unban appeal

    -Denied- After reading over your appeal, your responses, and speaking with Jiggly; It appears that you have admitted to killing 3 or more players with your knife, both before and during the admin sit. ____________________________ At this time, given the statements made within your appeal, I do not feel this ban was false or wrongdoing by the issuing staff member. - Your ban will expire on July 13th, at which time you may rejoin the server. Be advised that upon returning, if you randomly teleport to a box without accepting a duel, it's probably an admin sit. Thank you. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.

    unban appeal

    You were banned by @jiggly for Mass RDM.
  17. While I cannot accept/deny this, I will say that ban appeals are intended for bans which are issued without a valid reason, by mistake, or with a lack of evidence; You have clearly admitted to and even provided the proof that was used to warrant your ban in your appeal, so unless another executive deems this proof as inadequate, your ban will likely remain. All of the provided clips can be found at these links: (They were segmented due to a lackluster recording program by the reporter.) https://streamable.com/wvj93f (10 damage, FDA) https://streamable.com/bv1gnp (5 damage, FDA) https://streamable.com/hpof3x (Additional attempts to utilize your fader key to shoot the Mayor.) At the end of the day, you are a Lead Moderator, you should be a pillar of our community and set an example for the users, VIPs, and your subordinates in the staff team; Your actions are your choice, your company is your choice, that company gave you a bum steer, you made the choice to follow it. I like you as a person, you do well at your position, you made a simple mistake- We're all human, it happens. If your ban could be reduced, I'd be in favor, either way I hope that this serves as a learning opportunity for you moving forward.

    Ban appeal

    ACCEPTED In order for a gang war to be used as means to kill other players, both Leaders must make valid adverts, one to propose the war and one to accept the proposal. Since only half of these logs were recovered, I am unable to determine if the Gang War was properly initiated, and therefore, unable to prove if you actually Mass RDMed. In response to the accusation of homophobia in his adverts, the term he used was "maggot," which has been around for quite some time and is commonly reference someone as an insect. While distasteful and disrespectful, it isn't necessarily a term used to show discrimination to the LGBTQ+ community or the people therein. ________________________________ Your ban will be removed under technicality, Due to missing evidence from our staff member(s) involved. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.
  19. -Denied- From what I have read here and the individual conversations I've had with the involved staff members, It seems that there was a report made initially to get this base owner removed from their doors, after which you allegedly claimed them and demanded the previous owner's base-mates & props be removed. Yes, owning the doors would make the base yours under normal circumstances, but if a staff member was responsible for the removal of the base ownership with an active report, the base (and contents) aren't just up for grabs to the first random joe who runs up and presses F2 on them. Due to the fact that no legible evidence has been provided by either party, I cannot conclusively say one way or another that this was misconduct by the staff member(s). ____________________________ I will be speaking with Derpza about gathering sufficient evidence from in-game reports. Thank you for your time. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.

    Ban Appeal

    ACCEPTED! As StarPhantom has said, they could not determine if you had left the server intentionally; StarPhantom also forgot to archive the connection logs to show at what time you disconnected, so there is no way to determine for sure if you left before reaching the sit. ________________________________ Regardless, I see no harm in unbanning you. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you! Your ban will be revoked. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.
  21. -Denied- Unfortunately, while this player was breaking rules, it's not your responsibility to kill him. If he was prop-slamming, or broke NLR you should have made a /report. It's never your job to deal out punishments for breaking server rules as a VIP or user. Because you did kill him 5 times without a valid roleplay reason, and because there was no lack of intention, There's not much I can do besides let you ride out the ban and hope for better next time. Your ban will remain until July 1st, 2023 at 23:17 At which time, you are welcome to rejoin the server and continue to be a contributor to our community. ____________________________ Thank you for your time. @stretchy @ProggyPlease lock & move.
  22. @Goofy_Guy Do you have any screenshots, videos, or any other media that might help me establish what happened? So far we've received nothing more than verbal recollections of the event.

    Ban Appeal

    -Denied- Unfortunately, your ban history speaks for itself. As is stated in the ban appeal format post, "ban appeals are no place for apologies." You were given chance after chance and continued to break the server rules; your ban will remain until further notice. ____________________________ Thank you for your time. @Chicaa21@Korn @stretchyPlease lock & move.

    Ban Appeal

    -Denied- This is my interpretation of the proof and stories provided above. As you said in your post, you sought them out and killed one of them, "falloutblaze777," (Which, as a Banker class shooting him without him shooting you would count as RDM x1) After killing Falloutblaze, you shot at his affiliate, "Shoot," who killed you moments after. (Attempted RDM x1) Immediately thereafter, you killed "falloutblaze777" one more time without him damaging you beforehand, (Which, once again a Banker class cannot kill someone unless it's self-defense, (RDM x1) This isn't even taking into account the other two players you shot without reason, "Wohmi" and "FaZe Miles Morales" The NLR will not be taken into account as there is no location evidence; With the charge of Attempted Mass RDM, the NLR is irrelevant. ____________________________ Your ban will remain for Attempted Mass RDM, as you killed and/or damaged two or more players for no reason in a short period of time. You will be able to rejoin the server upon your ban's expiration on Wednesday, June 28th 2023 at 20:07 ____________________________ Thank you for your time and I hope you have a fantastic stay here at Garnet Gaming @Chicaa21@Korn @stretchyPlease lock & move.
  25. •ACCEPTED• While the comment Maddox made was not directly intended to cause distress or disrespect to any particular individual, racism & racial discrimination in any form will not be tolerated on our servers; Especially from our own staff team, and specifically from a staff member who has previously held the rank of Lead Admin. I've discussed the matter with our management team, who has found Maddox's actions worthy of a two week ban from the Garnet Gaming DarkRP server. Additionally, Maddox will be spoken to by Management for his behaviour and representation of the staff team. ____________________________ Thank you for your time and I hope you have a fantastic stay here at Garnet Gaming @Chicaa21@KornPlease lock & move.
