Hello Marcus, I hope your day is going well. Now, let me begin with I believe this staff report is just completely un-needed. If you wished to argue your ticket further, you could have messaged a member of Upper Administration, but instead you reported me. You made a staff sit stating that a man had committed RDM by shooting you. When brought to a sit I reviewed the clip and asked the man that you accused of RDM if he had a clip, in which he did and here it is: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iYryslFMVPJKZwlbd/eDMFleEK7wmx?invite=cr-MSxrcnosMjQ0Mjk2NDYwLA In the clip you can see that the accused had been shooting at Marcus, but both clips are too short to see how the gunfight started. What you can also see in this clip is Marcus running out of the Benderblock with a gun pointed straight at the accused after already being killed. He had the intent to commit Revenge-RDM and broke NLR. I decided in that staff sit NOT to punish you, and told you both to go your different ways, and to leave one another alone. You then proceeded to get angry and say I was a "bad moderator" in which I responded with "Okay, have a good day." and returned you, which can be seen in this clip: https://streamable.com/dfp9ah I'm unsure as to your intention on making this staff report, but it was completely unjustified. Have a nice night!

How long have you been roleplaying?: I have been roleplaying on Prometheus Networks since November of 2022 when my friend that is now former staff Harry invited me to Garry's Mod. I joined the old version of Kaisergarde and sat there for months, making it to the rank of Stabsfeldwebel before joining the German Red Cross under Josef Doi.

If so, what were they for and what could you have done to prevent getting them next time?: I'll admit, I have received my fair share of infractions within my time of playing Prometheus Networks. All of my bans and notes that I have received were from months ago and since then I have learned and grown from my mistakes as a player within Prometheus Networks and I assure you they will never happen again. Notes: June 17th 2024: I was given a note from Beach that states, "RDM" I am unaware of the context but I do apologize and it will not happen again. June 28th 2024: I was given a note from Seiker that states, "Lied to get a 2 rank promotion | Be wary of user" I am aware of the context of this note and I can explain. I did not lie to get a 2 rank promotion I was confused on the ranking system. I believe I have discussed this note with Seiker but no notes can be removed. July 10th 2024: I was given a note from Pauljac3 that states, "Being retard and VDM'ing" I have never heard of this person before and I'd like to say that I believe this note is unjust.

August 7th 2024: I was banned for 1 day by Beach for the reason, "LTARP" I am aware as to why I was banned and attempted to appeal it. I was banned for deleting a character that I knew was going to be perma-killed. My appeal was denied due to the ban being so short. August 10th 2024: I was banned for 3 days by Saito for the reason, "RDM" I am aware as to why I was banned and appealed it. I was banned for shooting 3 men who had illegally detained a member of the Federal Marshal Service. My appeal was denied due to the fact is had expired. Staff Knowledge Section What previous experience so you have as a staff member either within Garry’s Mod or the Nutscript Gamemode? I do not have much knowledge on Nutscript Gamemode though I have been a staff member in other servers. Anything that I need to learn I am very willing to do so and I am sure I can pick up quick. Why do you believe we should pick you for the Prometheus Networks Staff Team?[300 words or more]: The reason that Prometheus Networks has such an outstanding community with amazing roleplayers is because of the outstanding staff team that ensures the community has its problems solved while acting in a professional manner. It is important to uphold all of the responsibilities of a staff member to ensure players' questions, problems, mistakes, and issues that they have had. Staff members ensure that there are no disruptions within roleplay and that everything runs smoothly by getting rid of those who intend to impede roleplay. I believe I can assist players whenever required with their needs as long as they are within reason and within my abilities as a moderator. When taking staff sits I would never act biased and only use the evidence brought to me by the person who created the sit. It is important to act with professionalism because staff set the example for the quality of the server. I am very active on the server and I play in the afternoons during the weekdays and for hours during the day and night on the weekends. I understand that activity is essential when you are a member of the staff team on prometheus networks and I am fully prepared. My dedication to this community has been held for almost 3 years as I have watched members of National High Command come and go. I have seen some crazy things and I am ready to enforce the standard of the staff team and ensure that there are no problems within roleplay. I am prepared to accept the challenges and contribute more as a staff member for the betterment of our community. My presence as a staff member will be unwavering as I mediate conflict and resolve issues among players while enforcing the high standard expected of me as a staff member. What are the duties and responsibilities of the position you are applying for in your own words? [150 Words or more]: There are many duties and responsibilities to being on the staff team of Prometheus Networks but the most important task is to enforce the rules on players to ensure the quality of roleplay and make sure there is no disruptions. Disruptions within roleplay can interfere with the lore and any on-going activities involving members of National High Command. Members of the staff team are to prevent those who intend to ruin roleplay and get rid of those who do. It is crucial to maintain active roleplay with no disruptions or it could disrupt the flow of roleplay, causing issues. Members of the staff team are to set a positive role-model for the community by helping others with things such as their player models, setting a faction, and easy day-to-day problems. A key responsibility for members of the staff team is to take tickets made by players in need and help them. This is a key part of being staff and it is crucial to take as many tickets as you can to help others because many players do not have trusted and have to have the aid of staff members when setting up a recruit or promoting an individual. Another key responsibility of a staff member is to be respectful and professional at all times when speaking or interacting with anyone on Prometheus Networks. Professionalism is a key part of being a staff member on Prometheus Networks and should be upheld while roleplaying on a character and while conducting staff duties. If a member of the staff team doesn’t act with professionalism, it could set a role-model for players within Prometheus Networks and cause for more disruptions. I believe members of the staff team should make it their goal to help any players and especially new players with understanding the server, roleplaying on the server, and any problems they come into contact with while on the server. The overall role of a staff member is to help those in aid when needed with whatever problem it may be, no matter how difficult. Notes: Thank you.

Thank you for your reply Hound! Now I understand that it may seem a little "unimaginative" but it's very possible. I intend for this criminal organization to work with the government agencies in some ways, but only if it benefits us. What we do that is unique is really simple. We don't want to just run around robbing people all day, we want to be involved with the other government agencies, making our presence known by showing them we do intend to actually roleplay with them, not just kidnap their men all day. I want to build trust with those that can help me supply and built up my organization, like Ministers and Generals. In exchange for their help and donations, we will offer them services and materials that we have gathered from other sources of work. Sorry for the late response, god bless!

Introduction Information Section Steam Name: Shepherd SteamID32: STEAM_0:0:646528906 Discord Username/ID: 1shepherd Time Played (check with !time): 1w 6d 5h 20m Basic Information Section Name of Organization: The Archibald Family Number of Members (Minimum of 5, could expand): 12 members Type Of Organization (Family, Enterprise, Gang, etc): Family Ethnic Background (ex: Italian, Japanese, German, etc): Polish Why should your organization be accepted? [100 words or more]: Ladies and Gentlemen, over the past few weeks, you may have heard of a man named Isaac Archibald III, also known as "The Grandfather," who has been running around terrorizing those who dare to harm or get in the way of his family. The Archibald Family is filled with skilled Polish gangsters who roam the streets, doing deals with corrupt government agencies, cooking drugs, and selling weaponry. I plan to grow my family into large criminal organization, more feared than the National Security Bureau has ever been or will be. Our family’s specific goal is to sell exclusive weaponry to corrupt agencies, including members of the Imperial Chancellery, Imperial Armed Forces, and potentially even the Ministry of the Interior. These weapons will be supplied by an anonymous dealer who offers them at a low price in exchange for a cut of the profit. The leader of our family, "The Grandfather," has single-handedly escaped the custody of both the Landespolizei and the National Security Bureau, and even managed to break his men out along with him. "The Grandfather" is notorious across the Landespolizei, National Security Bureau, and Imperial Armed Forces, always seen in his signature black fedora and suit, accompanied by two armed guards in matching attire. He has forged deals with members of the National Security Bureau and Landespolizei officers to maintain a "peaceful" state within the city of Berlin. The Archibald Family has no intention of detaining, robbing, or killing anyone unless they pose an extreme threat that leaves us no choice but to do so. The Archibald Family aims for recognition and respect. Our goal is to secure deals with corrupt government agencies that will increase our family’s fame and wealth. We seek to operate efficiently, ensuring that our presence is known while profiting from these alliances. Provide an example of the unique roleplay your organization will bring to the server: Walking the streets of Berlin, you’ll often encounter regular street thugs mugging random civilians or even members of the Imperial Armed Forces. In most cases, these criminals end up being detained by the Landespolizei or the National Security Bureau, brought to court, and even killed. The Archibald Family follows three strict rules: Rule 1: The most important rule of all: death before dishonor. Members of my family would rather swallow a cyanide pill hidden under their tongue than be captured and shot by a man paid to execute those who have to mug others just to survive. Rule 2: Stay professional. I want my family to resemble the men within the Imperial Chancellery more than any thug roaming the streets. Our goal is to operate with such professionalism that we’re never caught, and the best way to avoid capture is to avoid suspicion in the first place. Rule 3: Don't show emotion. This may seem like an odd rule, but it is crucial. Emotions like anger, sadness, or a thirst for revenge often lead to mistakes that get you arrested, brought to trial, or even killed. Emotion leads to problems and is unnecessary. Never show emotion while on the job. My family intends to strike deals with members of the Imperial Chancellery, Imperial Armed Forces, Landespolizei, and possibly the Ministry of Interior that involves selling weaponry and at times even offering protection against enemy threats. While we offer our services, we expect respect at all times. Anyone caught giving any disrespect to a member of the family will result in inevitable death, no matter the rank or title. The family will stop at nothing to protect our respect and pride and intend to rid of those who propose danger to it. What is the backstory of your organization? [200 words or more]: ⁤Born into the harsh realities of urban life, Isaac Archibald III grew up in a poor orphanage in the outer-city of Warsaw, Poland. ⁤⁤Desiring power, Archibald fled to Berlin, Germany, at the age of eighteen, seeking wealth, status, and a real family. ⁤⁤He took a job as a waiter at a restaurant called the Balkan Gentleman's Lounge, though he hated this lowly position as he watched others enjoy the lavish lifestyles he so deeply desired. ⁤Eventually, Archibald simply could not live like this anymore. ⁤⁤Tired of being a "working man" with no power, he quit his job, driven by ambition and desire to change his fate. ⁤⁤He then recruited his two nephews, Piotr and Jakub Archibald, who had emigrated from Poland in search of power.. ⁤⁤Together, the three men introduced the "Archibald Family" to the streets of Berlin, creating fear wherever they went. ⁤ ⁤After years of operating as an unknown gang, the Archibald Family now strives for something greater, ultimate power. ⁤⁤They are determined to become the most feared group that has ever been seen in Berlin. ⁤Now known as "The Grandfather," Archibald has built connections with powerful figures within the Imperial Government, spreading corruption while doing so. ⁤⁤The family pushes forward in their journey for dominance, following their oath: "Death before Dishonor." Notes: I understand the difficulty of creating a Criminal Organization but I believe this can be a huge benefit to the server, Prometheus Networks.

Hello Coffee! Thank you for your comment. I understand the PK Guideline ""On the orders of Feldmarschall, Innenminister, Vizekanzler, Konsul, Kanzler, Prinzregent, Kaiser [PK]" as well as the PK Guideline "On approval of UA+ [PK]" but it also clearly states within the forms that a PK must be used as a form of LAST RESORT. It also states that, "You must resolve the matter using other means which don't involve PKing first, unless it is deemed impossible, and agreed upon by the approving staff member." This PK was far from being deemed as a last resort and there were many other ways to go about this. If the Consul cared so much about what was happening then he could have taken me to trial and had me sentenced or at the bare minimum throw me in a cell or just straight up let me resign or discharge me. PKing a Generalleutnant equivalent just because "I attempted to run back to the ICC and realised that the Ministry of Interior wasn't coming out winners in that instance." isn't a valid reason. A PK is used as a last resort to kill someone in a situation that is absolutely necessary. I was detained, I didn't struggle, didn't attempt to run, I was simply killed because he was upset as to what had happened. The way he carried out the PK was incorrect and in no way shape or form was reasonable. Thank you for your reply! God Bless!

Hello Reverend! Thank you for commenting, let's begin. You betrayed the Party and attempted to sway the members of the People's Watch to support the Ministry for the Interior, rather than siding with the Party, during an active conflict in the middle of an investigation into the actions of the Ministry for the Interior by the Party on the Emperor's Orders. Well this is a confusing one but I'll do my best to respond, The Vice Consul asked me during the middle of a Civil War to come to the Reichstag, and run across an open line of fire. He then came to the MOI and I LET HIM IN, and asked for the People's Guard, my unit, to come with me to watch both sides and see who we should ally with. The investigation on the Ministry of Interior has absolutely nothing to do with the Civil War, or my PK. You then attempted to run back to the ICC when you realised that the MoI wasn't coming out winners in that instance. Well I ran to the ICC on my own accord, got there successfully, was let in my a General, all while knowing that the Ministry of Interior wasn't winning. Interesting statement, that has nothing to do with my PK. You had dirt / insider information on our activity / investigation which you have been more than privy to since your appointment as Chief of the People's Watch. Well, that sucks. Maybe choose what you do more wisely, and if you would dive a little deeper into what you mean by "dirt", that would be amazing. You previously acted like a fool and have caused numerous headaches for the Party, and were warned that if you were to continue on this path you would end up dead. You released a document stating that the entire Kaisergarde was under you, in which the Innenminister replied to a document absolutely clowning you, made you write an apology, and limited the People's Watch to 8 people. All because you released one document. Your SECOND document (which I still regret signing) attempted to take the entire Imperial Security Bureau and place them back under the party. Another big FAT loss for the German Party Administration, because of you. YOU have caused more headaches for the German Party Administration than any other Consul. Congratulations. Not only does this have nothing to do with my PK, but it also breaks another PK guideline which states, "You must resolve the matter using other means which don't involve PKing first, unless it is deemed impossible, and agreed upon by the approving staff member." Your literal last words were "Glory to the Ministry of the Interior" before you were PKd. When you're own men detain you, put you on a wall, and shoot you without any reason as to why, you tend to side with the opposition. Which also, has nothing to do with my PK. The PK also happened as a result of an NHC PK order. Well I could have sworn I wrote an entire paragraph on how a PK must be a last resort and can't simply happen because you got all upset and started crying that I couldn't fix all the mistakes you made.. All of these things can be attested to / supported by the rest of the command of the Party. I to, have witnesses Consul. Thank you for your reply! God Bless!

Character's name & rank: Divisionsleiter Joseph Busch SteamID32: STEAM_0:0:646528906 Staff member who issued the PK (if you know): Coffee Explain why you were PK'd: During the Civil War between the Military and the Ministry of Interior on the date 9/12, I had assisted the Ministry of Interior against invasion against the Military, though at the time the Military had been unaware that I had been helping the Ministry of Interior. During this Civil War, I had allowed the Vice Consul and several members of the German Party Administration and People's Watch into the Ministry of Interior for safety. Despite this, they decided to leave while I assisted the Ministry of Interior. As the Ministry of Interior was slowly losing ground, I went on a search for the Interior Minister, who was nowhere to be found. On this search, I knew that many members of the Ministry of Interior had been detained and were being held in the ICC, and that since the People's Watch and German Party Administration were on "neutral" grounds, I had access to the ICC. I approached the ICC garage to find a Generalmajor who offered me the opportunity to come inside for my safety, which I accepted. We had made it to the Benderblock before members of the Military were screaming at the Generalmajor, that the ICC was on lockdown and that I had to leave. After the Generalmajor confirmed this, I began to leave the ICC and made it just past the barrier surrounding the Benderblock, on my way to the garage exit, when I was swarmed by members of the ICC stating that the Vice Consul had ordered my detainment. I was swiftly moved into the Field Marshal's office within the Benderblock where I would find the Chief of the National Security Bureau and the Leading State Secretary of the Ministry of Interior detained. I was quickly blindfolded when I demanded answers in which the Field Marshal replied my detainment had been ordered by my superiors and that I was to be stripped of my rank and fired. I was then shoved into a corner along with the other members of the Ministry of Interior while I was dragged by Joseph Soros and forced to watch the Minister of Interior, Grand Admiral, and Field Marshal engage in a screaming match. During this screaming match, I was encountered by the Vice Consul who called me multiple insults, in which I replied with various insults as well, including calling him a traitor. After a good amount of time, I was taken by the Consul, Vice Consul, German Party Administration, and People's Watch to an area over by the Luftwaffe training grounds. I was then shoved into a corner and spat on along with multiple insults thrown at me while my own men and General Hans von Aachen were confused as to why I was detained and why this had happened. The Consul then ordered me to stand against a wall and ordered my own men to open fire upon me while General Hans von Aachen watched, in tears. Directly before I was shot, a State Secretary by the name of Karl Becker stated, "By the German Party Administration you have been deemed death." Why should you be un-PK'd?: Now, if you take a look at the PK guidelines it states under the Government PK Criteria that the Consul can order the PK of someone as long as he is in the city and this was conducted correctly. HOWEVER, if you look under the The Following is NOT Permitted section, it clearly states that a PK will not be permitted, unless it is used as a LAST RESORT. This being said, in no way shape or form was my PK a last resort. I had been invited into the Inner City Compound by a General ranking officer, and then when told to leave I did so without a second thought. When I was detained I didn't move an INCH and complied with every order given. I never attempted to run, or hide, or kill anyone, I complied with every order. No court trial was held for myself as a Generalleutnant equivalent, I was simply dragged onto a wall, and shot because the German Party Administration deemed me death. My death was unjustified and I was killed simply because I did something that the Consul didn't agree with. He was scared, and a coward and took the opportunity to shoot me while he had the slightest upper hand. Clip of the State Secretary's Statement: https://streamable.com/qgp9y2 Additional Information: Take the information I've given you, read the PK Guidelines, and make the decision you deem fit. God Bless.

Your Name: Shepherd SteamID32 (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:0:646528906 Appeal Type (Apology or Dispute): Dispute. Which staff member banned you?: MandersJ How long is your ban for?: Permanently. Why were you banned?: Global Rule 1. Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: No context nor evidence has been sited for this ban, it was out of nowhere and literally makes zero sense. I haven't been on the server in at least a day because I have been sick with Strep Throat, the last thing I have done on the server was write a five page document for the Ministry of Agriculture. I have also looked this person up in every place I could think of and found nothing on him. Additional Information: Thanks.

Your Name: Shepherd SteamID32 (STEAM_0:X:XXX): STEAM_0:0:646528906 Appeal Type (Apology or Dispute): Apology. Which staff member banned you?: Saito How long is your ban for?: 3 Days Why were you banned?: Random Death Match or RDM Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: The situation that went down was as follows: I was on a Enlisted Kaisergarde Character when I approached a Commissioned Officer within the Federal Marshal Service being dragged by a member of the Kaiserliche Feldjägers who was a Non-Commissioned Officer. Along with the man dragging the Federal Marshal was a Commissioned Officer within the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe and what appeared to be a Non-Commissioned Officer within the Deutsches Volkswachter, all of which including the man dragging the Federal Marshal, had MP40's. I approached the Feldjäger with my MP40 out and on safety and demanded he let the Commissioned Officer within the Federal Marshal Service go. Behind me, the Commissioned Officer within the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe pulled out an MP40 on safety. Thinking quickly, I assumed that he would shoot me for interfering with his detainment, so I shot all three of the men and a citizen in the cross fire to release the Federal Marshal and avoid being shot. At the time, I assumed what I had just done had broken no rule because I have seen scenarios similar to this happen and go unpunished, though that is no exuse. I assumed that since the member of the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe had pulled out an MP40, I had reasonable cause and suspicion to end their lives before they ended mine, as I thought he was about to shoot me. After I had freed the Commissioned Officer within the Federal Marshal Service, I had a slight argument with the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe Officer in OOC regarding the situation and whether or not it was RDM. I was aware that he had been staff and I was somewhat expecting to be pulled to a staff sit. Once I was pulled to a staff sit, Seiker whom had claimed the Luftwaffe Officer's ticket listened to the situation because there was no clip and explained to me how it was RDM. My argument within the staff sit was I believed that it was reasonable cause because there were three members with MP40's and only one of me and that they all could have pulled out MP40's at any moment and shot me dead in the street with nobody around to witness the crime or stop them. I tried to explain to Seiker how fast you can switch an MP40 from safety to shooting someone dead, and that it only took one second to kill someone. Seiker offered to call a higher ranking member of staff to the sit, which had been Saito. As he listened to the situation, Saito agreed with the two others in the sit and explained to me how it had been RDM and that shooting them for only pulling out an MP40 on safety was not reasonable cause to do so. At the time I still did not understand how that hadn't been reasonable cause to shoot them, so Saito explained since I needed time to better understand the rules he would be banning me for three days. At the time I was in an angered state as I believed that I had been in the right and that I had taken the right steps. I now understand that I was wrong and that I went about handling the situation the wrong way. Instead of shooting the men as soon as the Commissioned Officer of the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe pulled out an MP40 on safety, I should have waited until they aimed weapons at me. If that had happened I then could have risked being PKed by starting the gun fight or I could have been detained. I understand fully now that shooting the men for pulling out an MP40 was wrong and I apologize. I have used my time while being banned to read over the rules and to see in what way I was wrong. I apologize to Rose/the Commissioned Officer within the Kaiserliche Luftwaffe and to the other men for shooting them without reasonable cause. Additional Information: Thank you for reading my appeal.
