  1. the way you described that potential for a staff interaction is exactly how most staff sits go in my experience, not that I'd be like that myself I don't intend on using my mic very often if I am made staff, unless people just keep yelling and I need to shut people up for a second, but I usually type as staff so people can see without misunderstanding or mishearing me when I tell them what the case is and how they can handle it if somebody got RDM'd, showed me a clip and it was legitimate, the first thing I would do is comp that person, ask them to be quiet and let me handle the RDMer, copy RDM'ers steam ID, bring him to the sit room and see how he conducts himself; from there two things can happen; 1. I punish the RDMer based on if he was disrespectful, shooting in the staff room or RDM'd the victim again (beginning with looking at his notes first), if he LTAPs it gets worse for him 2. I talk to the RDMer about what he did, tell him not to do that again, tell him how to avoid a situation like that if necessary and note him if it felt like an intentional thing, or ban him if he had a history.
  2. being forced to argue my integrity over how I sound isn't fun, and looking at accepted applications led me to believe the better choice is not to fill the gaps with empty words you cannot find everything out you want to know about me in 150 or 300 words, maybe if you asked for specific things like the benefits and downsides or a more linear method we might actually get somewhere, but I feel like it would be incredibly inflated to force in a hundred or two hundred more words than necessary and within my nature, you guys know how I talk, and I can talk plenty, the issue is if I have nothing to work on I'll end up blabbering about worthless details or superficial things about how I would act as a staff membere as for the lack of understanding, the only things I do not understand are how you guys can see it fit to choose subjectively what is or is not against the rules based on how you feel and what you had for lunch, I would much rather a solid, set standard for how to treat players both based on their past as well as what they're doing in the moment, which in my experience as staff on historia and other ww2 servers has led to a rather long healthy career until the owners fuck up really badly or decide not to listen to me when I tell them to ban certain individuals that are an open problem for the server, and even when that happens I don't crash out, I just stop playing, I do not have the energy for that kind of stuff, I'm either here for you or I'm gone also, the GOLDEN rule about staff and understanding their say; what UA says goes, disagreement is not a factor in how you play, it's only a feeling
  3. of all the people to -1 I'm most disappointed you did, haven't you seen what I do? you are in my department, you know what I do for you guys and you still saw fit, why?
  4. you type like a fifth grader and your argument sounds kind of weak being that you haven't even figured out what these petty and stupid shits are, I've made mistakes and I'm owning up to them here but then I get dogged on for it in manners like this where I just want to try helping you guys out for once that being said, the initial attitude of staff members in general is usually what pushes the mood for other staff to act in line with, so I'll say you effectively chose the outcome by being low effort on your own and not really giving a fuck about the context or potential for even letting me be a trial mod, having been in this server since the literal start and done quite a bit to open the roleplay as it is right now, but not in ways I can say without metagame
  5. I try to be active but it's a bit hard juggling college AND a job
  6. I appreciate the feedback myself, but no, not all accepted staff have reached the 150 word limit let alone the 300 word limit, I feel like they're remnants of the past that we can really move on from if we want a practical outlook on who's applying for staff I'm not a lazy staff member, I don't just dismiss people's behavior, and the point of my application being so short is to get to the point already, I'm not 150 or 300 words interesting, I'm telling you how simple my role would be as staff and the point in doing as I do, and I swear I'll do it well enough that you won't care how short this application is
  7. Steam Name: HarryB^ SteamID32 (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:0:65488 Discord Username/ID: _codda Timezone: EST Age: 19 Time Played (check with !time): 2w or something Your current rank(User/Donator/Trusted): Donator Do you have a mic & will you use it?: yes Are you consistently active on the forums and server?: yeah Did anyone from the Recruitment Team assist you in making your application?: no Staff Recommendations (Sponsors will be asked to verify): none Basic Information Section IC Character names, ranks, and brief overview of their duties/everyday activities in a list format: Hans von Freiherr Richtofen (Ouroboros); Mechanicusburo; Nuclear missile engineer (dupes included), designer and inventor of Die Glocke (Dupe included), Designer and inventor of Majesty Prime (Liberty Prime but there's no freedom), Wolfus Williams, State, don't remember his actual job Gustav Vofring, KG John E. Baker, Sole proprietor and designer of all current practical aircraft (Helicopters, planes, etc) Ohr Lapoe (LaPo) How long have you been roleplaying?: since the start of the server and before Have you received any infractions i.e Notes/Bans? If so, what were they for and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: yes, a lot, usually stupid shit and petty arguments Staff Knowledge Section What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? LOTS, most of which are currently dead servers cause owners like Heizer said "yeah this is fun and all but how about I quit" or some random bullshit happened where the owner or dev was in a scandal Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]: I'm lenient, I don't care about biases or else I'd not be playing the server at all I like to help people and build cool stuff that improves the experience I'm usually on some kind of grind or wait when I'm in the server so I'd passively be helping people on wait to my next sit I plan on teaching new players what not to do instead of punishing them outright (MRDM and other blatant rulebreaks excluded) What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]: there's not 150 words of what staff do, they enforce the rules according to their understanding and double check to make sure they're not about to fuck somebody or underplay the damage someone did in roleplay Notes: if this application gets accepted I still need a ton of teaching how to use the model of admin menu and other basic stuff other than that I'm not stupid I'll figure it out
  8. Pros: - All weapons are droppable without a crate - SIGNIFICANTLY less lag, less glitches, more compatible with nutscript - Hits register much more effectively - Many more weapons available - Ammo crates can be placed down by staff as compensation - Gunfire is much more audible (And sounds much better too) - Weapons do much more damage and have much more hipfire capacity (for some guns) - Wall penetration (BRING IT BACK! I WANT TO SHOOT PEOPLE THROUGH DOORS!) - Ricochets - Semi realistic weapon stats (The MP-40 is not a hailstorm of bullets, the kar98 and g43 are possible to hipfire) Cons: - No universal attachments - Weapons would be reset - Attachments / Skins would be invisible on outside view by default - Wall penetration (More accidents, you need to take better cover than a tree) - No melee by default (E + Left Click)

    Name: John E. Baker SteamID32: STEAM_0:0:65488 Staff Member who issued the Flag Blacklist: Major Whoreson + Browniemeister Explain why your flags were blacklisted: Spawning in a prop blimp, flying it, getting it flung and then spawning it back in Explain why your flags should be unblacklisted: I'm sorry about spawning it in during overpop, when the blimp got flung I thought I was getting proppushed by a minge I thought that the second time I'd spawn it in I'd keep it completely frozen and parked so people can see it and stuff without it getting fucked with, I was waiting all week to put it down because I have to juggle college and a job right now; I should have checked playercount but today I didn't know important shit was going down I was just asked to get in and show the chief of luftwaffe the airship and how to control it I know it's been a reoccurring issue but making vehicles is a fraction of what I do with my flags, and I've also got a slot machine I didn't even get to show anybody yet Additional Information: the reason the airship looked like dogshit is because I used destructible props as much as I can possibly go with because I don't want to make an immortal aircraft, but especially on this airship where we plan to drop troops out of, shoot down from above and do other cool stuff I did ask for permission to take off over radio, which was granted, and I wanted to fly it over to the benderblock for demonstration because the past 3 days were spent building it but I never got the chance to show up during times not before midnight Also I'm really appreciative that Browniemeister gave me the chance and guideline for which I can actually fly aircraft, without that I'd have had no chance with it anyways
  11. absolutely marvelous response, this is exactly as I meant you to interpret my recommendations and how to address them; anyways, I offer my rebuttal in the green text I edited into your response
  12. Another classic aspect; Return to 100 DM adverts. Please, I beg you. It's not fun to grind perpetually just to get word around that your restaurant or other kind of establishment merely exists, let alone to run it. We get enough stupid or ridiculous advertisements with the insanely expensive prices, and at 100 DM, you feel more obliged to do the least you can for your business, or announcing something you would like to as somebody trying to meet a minister. Do not let the idiots ruin it for everyone else, punish them, push them aside, in fact you could even make an advertisement blacklist if you like. Just save us the trouble of having to pay a fifth of a car just to ask to meet somebody that may not even be in the mood.
  13. For those of you who will actually look into this, you do not have to agree with any or all of these points to up this suggestion. Put down the ones you like, and the ones you do not like, this is meant to be a display of what once was or what may be a good idea. Thanks. Classic - It was like this before, and it really should have stayed like this. Non Classic - It was never like this, but I think it would be good for balance or QOL improvement. Ingame Mechanics; 1. (Classic) Drugs are returned to vendor access instead of by the shipment. This saves time and removes half of the tedium to earning money, also making it possible to recover more quickly after a big purchase or an enormous fine. 2. (Classic) Revert drug prices - 6,500 DM per brick, 2,000 per processor - 850 per coke sold to the vendor. 3. (Classic) Add daytime area mugging protection (Ex. No mugging at Reichstag, in front of Police Station, MOI, etc.). You can still kidnap, but you cannot commit the action of mugging and taking items off a person in close proximity of a government building or facility, or out in the open of the Reichstag Garden. Where there are realistically going to be guards, you cannot just rob somebody. Exception in numbers - If there are four or more of you, then assume you have the power to kidnap, take to a dark corner or alleyway, and then mug. 4. (Classic) Give vehicles more vroom vroom power. It's rather sad to deal with cars that can hardly go over curbs. 5. (Classic) Add back gramophones, recordings and car disc players. We really miss Du Bist So Zauberhaft. It added a fairly good atmosphere to the server. 6. (Classic) Submaterial, Stacker, Advanced Material - WONDERFUL at helping builders do their thing. Makes detailing so much easier. State Legislation Reversion; Legal System - (Non Classic) Felonies expire or are immediately expunged upon finishing a contract service or conscription (2 weeks or longer) in a Military or Ministry of Interior faction, and going to a judge you are within the jurisdiction of to prove you can be released from conscription and choose either to continue your duty or leave the faction in question. Firearms Law - (Classic) Remove the Ministry of Interior from firearms regulation, let judges decide who can wield what weapons from among these classes as it used to be in old Prometheus and let the Ministry of Interior be the ENFORCEMENT of the licenses as they should have been; Class 1 - Pistols / Sidearms Class 2 - Revolvers, Shotguns and semi automatic weapons (Anti-Tank and explosive weapons not included) Class 3 - Automatic weapons discluding machine guns, LMGs like the FG-42 are included in Class 3 but you still need Luftwaffe permission (Anti-Tank and explosive weapons not included) (Non Classic) Class 4 - Unobtainable without Tier 5 Party membership and a signature on your permit by the head of your department or the next in command (YOU MUST BE GOVERNMENT), for collection or bodyguarding purposes only (Anti-Tank and explosive weapons not included) (Non Classic) Ready Carry multiplier; Either a party tier of a certain level, or; 1.5x (Class 1), 2x (Class 2, 3 and 4) whatever the price of the permit for you to hold the weapon out without an imminent threat present or a test use/display in progress.
  14. Discord Username/ID: _codda Timezone: EST Age: 18 turning 19 Time Played (check with !time): 1w 3d Your current rank(User/Donator/Trusted): Donator Do you have a mic & will you use it?: Yes Are you consistently active on the forums and server?: Yes (off-time, weekends) Did anyone from the Recruitment Team assist you in making your application?: Badtrav, Vale67, Sparrow Staff Recommendations (Sponsors will be asked to verify): Badtrav, Sparrow Basic Information Section IC Character names, ranks, and brief overview of their duties/everyday activities in a list format: John E. Baker - Panzergrenadier, Unteroffizier, drives tanks around, responsible for the distribution thereof, collection of about 6. Wolfus Williams - Obersekretar, Ouroboros, invents everything from Die Glocke to weather manipulation, Human GPT and time machine. Ohr Lapoe - Polizeiobermeister of LaPo, law enforcement, essentially a SWAT member, has his own SWAT van model. Gustav Vofring - Entrepreneur, I intend on having him to run Los Pollos Germanos when it is finished. How long have you been roleplaying?: since about 2020 Have you received any infractions i.e Notes/Bans? If so, what were they for and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: Only from before my first permanent ban, do I recall any notes. After my first one, there must've been one note I think before I was banned again permanently (disrespecting the server). I haven't taken any notes or warns this time around. Staff Knowledge Section: What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? Phantom Networks, Werewolf Gaming, Jackal Networks, Modified Gaming, Historia (1 and 2) Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]: I've played here for years, I've got extensive rule knowledge and understanding as well as the experience most other people wouldn't have. I have played and run on enough servers to know who is just there to mess up other players' days, and who is there to actually try and have fun. Malice in players out of character is completely intolerable, I only see who did what. Insults have no meaning, I couldn't care less until somebody actually does something wrong. Also, I know very well how to handle disputes and where the burden of evidence lies. If something can be proven in logs, then unless a reasonable doubt has or can be established, it is therefore proven (I.e. somebody headshot and killed 8 people but nobody clipped it). I know the right and wrong things to ask about proving a situation had occurred, and the implication of immediate guilt for somebody who knows they've done guilty is enough to save the time and effort of dealing with a retard for another 2 hours. We've had a lot of such situations in Historia specifically, because people believed it was more hardcore ww2 germany than prometheus. Speaking of which, these "crusader" types are fairly easy to recognize and pick out as well. I've dealt with them quite a lot being on the unpopular servers, actors of all kinds who would spew a world of racially charged nonsense and slurs to no end after being told they are not allowed to run terrorist groups or refer to real world individuals with their names. I want to clarify; I have a certain level of tolerance for silly names because I myself enjoy the privilege of bearing them, just having a fun or clever name is enough to keep me around usually. They help to remind me where I am, that I am here with other people to have fun. At the end of the day, this has always been a game and it's dangerous to make too much out of it, which is why I've also learned the patterns of a tired or stressed player to learn how to deal with them instead of banning them outright. Complex process. What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]: As staff, I would give notes, warnings and bans to those who offend or break the rules at the expense or risk of roleplay quality, especially if they do it maliciously. My job is to make sure that nobody's making habits of bad shit either; baiting (for PK or deathmatch), harassment (OOC) or failrp (remembering after death, mentioning real world within IC context, taking information from out of character). I do not like rule lawyering or loopholing. I know what this looks like, and I will address it sternly. I will not validate or void anything without the appropriate permissions, even if it's completely within parameters of voiding. I will ensure that I act my part as staff, I will not overstep my guidances or boundaries. I've probably got a ticket quota to meet, so I'll be on for a bit until then. I'm mostly on during weekends, so please bear with me if I don't get enough tickets to meet quota. I'd take pretty much every ticket that comes across my screen anyways. Notes: I was going to make this app last week, but I wasn't super sure about the quality. I was also pretty burdened in regular life, so please excuse the lateness.
  15. Specifically, he was praising it over and over, telling me how the Kaiser would want to see it himself, and when I asked if we should land it in the Lichterfeld, quoting him; "Fuck it, we ball" Edit: When we actually GOT to the lichterfeld, note, he did say I should land it in the lawn of the pantheon instead, make it a cool landing
