  1. For clarification, the faction structure on each side would be: US Army -> 1st Marine Division Green Beret -> MARSOC Rangers -> Force Recon Delta Force -> DEVGRU Taliban 055th Brigade Red Group Badri 313 -> Inter-Services Intelligence
  2. Thank you to my favorite juicer, @Spencer, for helping out! Analysis of the Current Structure: “The primary reason for transitioning into an all US Army sided server was to incorporate more faction interaction and a stable RP organization of factions. The server has been through a numerous number of changes regarding either side, but something that has remained relatively the same over the years was the organization of US factions. As the server has been going through a bit of a rough patch, I figured that it's time to stir the pot again. I believe that at times like this, struggling to maintain a consistent population, players old and new want big changes. These big changes don’t necessarily solve core fundamental issues of the server, but what they do is provide a boost of interest and excitement for a little while. I think that these changes are not only beneficial for switching things up, but also bringing a boost of population to the server in which more players can address those fundamental issues together. The first part of this suggestion is to give Badri 313 a rework. I was talking with Crypt the other day and she mentioned that someone had actually left 313 to move to Red Group in favor of their models. It is no secret that models and guns are a main part of appeal for any faction. I also have to agree with their sentiment, as Badri 313 blows chunks aesthetically. The second part of this suggestion plays in part with the third. I want to completely transition from the US Army, to the United States Marine Corps. The part that plays hand in hand is the removal of donor factions. In turn, MARSOC would become a T2 faction within the US replacing Green Beret, and ISI would become Afghan’s T3 faction replacing Badri 313. Now, onto my reasoning. Aside from what was mentioned in paragraph 1, I believe that a lot of players have nostalgia for marines. Nostalgia is never a good reason for any changes, but I think that in this case specifically it is important. I want to give players something new and flashy to play with and in this case, its ISI and a complete US rework to marines. This will be very effective in drawing attention and inspiration because with any overhaul, there are a number of RP avenues that open up. I think marines will always have appeal as well as the new factions, and while this suggestion is aesthetically improving, it still serves as an important slate for future improvement of MRP. Another thing that I would like to see come from this suggestion is the merging of 055 with Tali, and MARSOC with 1MD. Back in the day, SOC and entry were connected. This had its ups and downs, but I think that overall it was good for building a connection with new players. How this worked is that 055/MARSOC would be able to promote for entry, host their tryouts, etc. The purpose of it was to build that connection and bridge newer players into SOC factions. At the same time, all SOC officers also served as enlisted officers meaning there was really never a shortage." It is also important to note that no donor classes would be touched aside from T2/3s. I think Elite classes are all fine for both sides and reassigning donors is a pain in the ass. Outline: Rework US to fit the new Marine structure presented below. Remove MARSOC and ISI as donator factions as they would become tiered factions for either side. Reimplement the merging of 055/MARSOC with their respective entry factions. Introduce MRP to a new wave of changes model, weapon, and RP wise.

  3. In-game name: KermatSteamID: STEAM_0:155902821 Staff members in-game name: SmityStaff members SteamID: STEAM_0:155902821 Date & Time of incident: ~2-3 months agoTimezone: EST Ban Reason: DoxxingHow long were you banned for?: Permanently What happened? (include any proof): From what I understand, Mitsuri wrote a document titled "Manager Appreciation Post" which included a current staff member's name within the post. Kermat knew this beforehand and posted it anyways, which of course warrants a permanent ban. Why should your ban be removed?: I am writing this appeal because I think that while yes, Kermat did something perma-worthy, he should be allowed back into the community. I am going to start by talking about my experience with Kermat, then why I believe he can be forgiven. I first met Kermat a year ago when I started to play MRP again. Fast forward a few months and Kermat is in my Delta Force. While I was leading, he climbed to the rank of officer. Kermat was easily one of the people I could trust to run the faction while I wasn't there. There isn't a lot of people I can say that about and my main point is that he's a valuable player. I offered to write this appeal for Kermat because like myself, having been community banned in the past, don't believe that it defines him as a player and member of the community. I hate to draw comparisons to other bans in the past because its unprofessional, but there is no denying that each case is unique to the player. When Kermat told me the details of what happened, he admitted to knowing that the player's name was inside of the post. He also mentioned that he was under the impression that he was cool with Smity and it was supposed to be a joke aimed in good fun. I can't lie, Kermat and the original author of the post are incredibly braindead for making this joke, regardless of whether or not they considered that player a friend. However, I think that is important to note that there have been over a hundred instances of this very incident happening in the past. If anyone remembers, Special had a similar incident in the past and moved on to be an SA for a Garnet server. While I know that Kermat has no capacity of higher thought or capability to become an SA, I still believe that in a time where MRP could really use a valuable player, his unban would be justified. Yes, this is an appeal that acknowledges that Kermat did in fact do something to warrant a perma ban. Yes, this appeal does not come into defense of Kermat that would absolve him of any wrongdoing. But if you know Kermat like I do, you know he has the potential to make mistakes just like any other player, but you also know that he is an extremely valuable asset to a community that could really use one. I hope that at this point in time in MRP's history, this appeal has the potential to breathe and gather feedback before an immediate denial. There are plenty of options that could be taken in his case to allow him back into the community while also placing him under restrictions or sanctions to ensure his behavior has improved. Please provide your honest opinion, but also consider Kermat as an entire player and not just from this one incident.
  4. I have to come to my own defense here because for some reason after all these years you still like to come onto my applications and threads to just say outright wrong statements. This one here about me leaving after Afghan was introduced is completely false. Not only did I continue to rank up in the Vega to Badri switch, but I led Delta Force for weeks. Following that, I joined TSFU and only left when it was time to release SWRP. This is also wrong and I think that any person who played on SWRP can testify to. You are right about my activity dwindling, but that was for about a week before I made the decision to resign to avoid from holding onto a position I had no time for. This was after months of insane activity and dedication to the server. First of all, I think I have put in enough time with this community to prove I will be dedicated. As for activity, I guess I can't prove it just yet. I will admit to one thing though. I told Garnet I would come back to help with SWRP recently, and after playing for 1 day, I quit. This is something far more concerning if you were going to criticize me. The problem is you're just gonna have to take my word for it because I really don't see how me potentially being 'out of touch' will effect ANYONE at the rank of T. Mod. I have to go through months of moderating before I would be able to make any sort of decision that would effect any of the players. Moderation isn't a hard job and I could do it in my sleep. I think months of moderation is more than enough time to 'get in touch'.

In-Game Name: 1stSFODD ASQ 2LT Wyclef Jean, Tali PVT Bishop, 313 2LTR Ziggy Age: 22 y/o SteamID: STEAM_0:1:171244538 Warns: 0 Timezone: MTN Playtime?: | Tali PVT Bishop has played for 1874:11:05. (Post-wipe) Do you have access to TeamSpeak and a microphone?: Yes Do you have the ability to record Garry's Mod videos?: Yes Referrals: N/A Past experiences as staff: SWRP Super Admin, MRP Admin, MRP Head Gamemaster, DRP H. Mod How do you plan on benefiting our server?: I've been playing MRP recently and I would like to contribute more for the health of the server. I think that I bring a lot of good ideas to the table in regards to a lot of various topics and I know I would be a valuable asset to the staff team. Starting out at T. Mod this would entail just doing my job while recommending anything if I can. As I move up I hope to be more involved with big decisions for the server as MRP has always been a special server to me and I want to do what I can to improve it. Speaking for myself, I think that I create a fun environment for those around me and I believe this is an important trait for strengthening a staff team. I (generally) work well with others and am open to hearing ideas from across the board. I am more than familiar with the rules and can ensure solid decision making in any administrative situation. Finally, I'm just here to have fun and hopefully elevate the experience for those playing with me so we can naturally build a more welcoming environment together. Have you ever been banned or punished on GG MRP? If so, Include details: I was community banned a few years ago for poor behavior. Have you made any previous applications, If so when?: I am not sure when and I don't think I can find them anymore but it's been a few and they were accepted. How much time do you have to contribute to the role?: A couple hours every weeknight and more time on weekends.
  6. might be boomer posting but you got this backwards
  7. +1 lol this speaks for itself
  8. I've always imagined a SWRP server where the Republic/Old Republic is one organization you could join, with CIS/Old Empire being its alternative, then merchant/bounty hunter/locals/police factions as alternatives. With a map like coruscant below, you could have factions owning parts of the map (cartel owns the club, merchants own the mine, etc) and a much bigger focus on faction politics/faction wars/etc to lead server interest than GM-led events (doesnt mean they wouldnt exist). But all in all, it would take a ton of coordination to make that work, as well as a complete revamp so I wouldn't count on it. I wanted to bring it up anyways because DRP is very successful at what it does as a gamemode. It lets players be individuals and has potential for extreme competition between players/groups. Competition is always an aspect on RP servers that is sought out, even in the PvE ones. The take away being, while this dude memeing a lil, it might be something to think about and develop ideas off of. This was my way of thinking with creating Requisitions (essentially gun dealers) and while it had technical difficulties that made it hard to play, the RP we got out of it was a lot of fun.
  9. Just want to say that when I suggested the Afghan swap, Afghan SOC were left out from having Ifaks because each one of their factions had an explosive. Not sure how much has changed since then, but I still wanted to give insight since this is about balance
  10. This isn't even true, but what will get you hated is posting these half-ass shitpost apps then expecting any real support. No cooldown on when you may reapply, but if your next app looks anything like this one you won't be reapplying for a very long time. Stop being lazy, it's two paragraphs.
  11. DENIED Unfortunately, as okay as that paper was, I can't overlook the fact that you ban evaded/cheated again in the same night. The administration team and I believe that you shouldn't be banned forever, but also feel you should serve some further length of punishment. For now, denied. My recommendation would be to play another GG server (if you're even able) and demonstrate good behavior to help you out in your next appeal. And no, in your next appeal, you will not have to write a paper. You may reappeal in 3 weeks minimum.
  12. While I'm all for rehabilitation when it comes to rule breakers, it isn't going to be easy. I was thinking of a way where you could still potentially earn the unban, but you're going to work for it. I want a google doc, the minimum length needs to be 3 pages. You have 2 weeks from today to complete this or the ban will remain. Topic: Cheating The entire page does not have to surround the topic below but must stay on the main topic of Cheating. The guide below will tell you what each page must include in at least some capacity, but again, the entire page does not need to be about those specific questions. First page needs to include: What cheat you chose and why did you choose that cheat? Second page needs to include: Why cheating is wrong, how you came to that realization, and why we can trust you to never do it again. Third page needs to include: How will you benefit the server if given an unban? Why will this benefit us more than keeping you banned? Once you are finished, post the document on this appeal. If you have any questions, ziggy#8757 is my discord tag. I'm not going to help you on any portion, as you need to find these answers yourself. I will clarify on any portion however, if you were to have a question. Understand that if I am not pleased with your answers and end up thinking keeping you banned will benefit us a community more, then I will make that decision. (i.e. simply completing the paper without caring/putting thought into it will not work) P.S. If you don't care enough to complete this, then say it asap so I can lock and move this thread.
