Your Character or Steam Name: Vincenzo 'Chin' DiMeo Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:1:63026788 Your Discord ID#: 1160635275446321192 Reason for ban: RDM Length of ban: 2 weeks Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): This supposed RDM was in fact not an RDM, I was at the item bank retrieving items when this guy comes up to me and starts a confrontation, calling me a "stupid dumbass" and then went onto call me a "retarded nigger" I said to him "What did you just call me?" and he repeats it, so I start to walk away and he follows me saying "Yeah thats right walk away" etc. When we had cleared a secluded corner with no witnesses around and he continued, I killed him with an automatic. Now fast forward 5 mins the guy is talking shit again but I don't kill him, I walk off back to what I was doing and went AFK as I had stuff to do. I come back to a ban screen for 2 weeks for RDM, and this guy is trolling me in my discord clearly knowing its not a fair ban, and the fact I was just banned without getting to say my side of the story is not fair in my eyes. This same guy was over at our shop a few days ago being a minge for no reason with ample warnings to leave our shop, and his approach being unrealistic RP. Why should you be unbanned? I have been very invested in this server, spending a lot of money in the process, and I have not been a minge RP'er one bit, many people would tell you since 'Chin' has came into the city he has been a man of his word and has been doing a lot of good business and relationship building, and doing things the right way. I was never given a chance of explaining why this guy was killed and why it was realistic RP as I made sure to only kill him when it was a clear coast and no one would be able to ID or link me to the crime, and he himself started the confrontation leading to the realistic RP outcome. this was not a Random Death Match case, as there was nothing random about the interaction Additional Information (images, videos, etc): Photo of the guy who caused the ban trolling me in discord after the ban as he knew what he had done and that I'd not be happy when I returned, for context: I don't even know this guy and have never had an interaction to cause this behaviour, this is just minge levels. P

+1 hes literally on a minge char beefing with someone of a rival faction, bans also way to long compared to other punishments. Is it RDM yes, he did not follow proper escelation, but there are external factors that need to be taken into account.

1. Crazy is rdm baiting IF its true that he was approaching you multiple times intentionally insulting you. 2. You cannot escalate to gun fight purely off of disrespect. You're both in the wrong, IMO crazy has more experience on the server and should've been punished too. On your end, you just got off a ban and should also know better, but a reduced ban from 2 weeks. I'm not staff nor am I trying to undermine anyone, but like I said, both are in the wrong here especially Crazy if he was insulting you over multiple occasions.

You fell for the bait, he is extremely mingey and doesn't do much other than be a useless shit head, sorry it had to happen to you.

Please for the love of god, stop making Otorhinolaryngologists (ear doctors) rich and add some type of proximity chat. We literally have the most bare-bones voice chat we can have, literally no communication can be had in a crowded environment. To add on to this, there's addons that allow for "voice priority" where a staff member can make someone's voice louder(Can be used in events such as the recent fashion show, but with staff supervision).

dont you kiss your brother? and what happen to cam bam?

So these people have to make a player report in the forums separately for ya'll to investigate an already proven-rulebreaker? Fair it was RDM, not fair that ole boy can do this to some more people before he gets shut down. That hard to do some work based off of proof posted here eh?

You're (Or someone else) obviously going to investigate ix_crazy_xi after 3 videos showing him to break the RDM Bait rule and NITRP hmm? Hell, there's an accepted player report for his OOC out of IC - contributing to his NITRP.

It's quite obvious throughout all three clips provided here who is and who isn't intending to RP. ix_crazy_xi Has not only been proven to have no intent for RP on all three clips, but proceeded to bait RDM and getting one of the only people I've seen who never breaks character to get banned. I've also had similar encounters with the ix_crazy_xi guy, funny how he didn't call "RDM" when he was gunned down for the same stupid shit. This kid needs to go, free ole' boy Chin. +1

same kid thinking he is the shit rdm baiting atp LOL https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/liJkj7LZqp4W56NU_?invite=cr-MSxOWXIsMjg0MjUzMTcy&v=85 https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/liJGNpqRB4sDxHB35?invite=cr-MSxtRUMsMjg0MjUzMTcy&v=170

Can we please RP again? Cut it out with your "cousins" somehow "hearing" about the beef you have with people? Cut down the harassment and chalked up, fabricated reasons to beef. Can't some of you drum up enough creativity to at least justify the shit you start with people without having to lie, metagame, and social engineer by skirting the rules? Just making a plea for some of you to play in good faith and actually RP. There's a reason you came to the City and stayed. We can be diplomatic. We don't have to like each other or even hate each other OOCly to love and hate ICly. Just please, play your characters. I'm so sick of hearing brainrot memes, modern vernacular, and constantly being harassed over dumb shit. Even this right here, pleading for basic decency is going to catch me a ton of flak. I just know it. I'm an RP nerd. It's the only reason I'm here. That's the only reason anyone should need to want to be here or deserve to be here. I agree to follow the rules, which was implicit in my willingness to stay and play for as long as I have. What's the motivation for anything else if not just to troll and harass people to satisfy your egos? Enlighten me, since I'm such a dumbass apparently. tl;dr Hey guys, wanna maybe RP again when you log in the City? Thanks.

Hello all, I've discovered kind of a loophole to the whole "Don't work with police, but making statements to cops is fine" pk rules. The current rule states: Which, on its face seems entirely fine. But since we're on the federal rules of evidence in the courts, it creates a stark, immediate issue. Originally, Hearsay was much more restricted. So, a cop hearing a victim say "Hey man that guys stealing my car" (this was a case against me i'm referencing here, guys already dead in an unrelated pk), the officers *can* include that in their affidavits to prove that the victim did have a crime committed against them. So, the current rule being that reporting a crime isnt enough; reporting the crime actually *is* enough to prosecute someone. Their statements can be considered testimony under two rules: FRE 803(1) FRE 803(2) These rules state that hearsay is acceptable and admissible in court if it is: (1) - Present Sense Impression: A statement describing or explaining an event or condition, made while or immediately after the declarant perceived it. (2) - Excited Utterance - A statement relating to a startling event or condition, made while the declarant was under the stress of excitement that it caused. So what does this mean for criminals? Someone yelling out "Officer this guy just killed someone" or "Officer, that guy stole my car" or "Officer he has a gun on him!" is ALL admissible in court. It's all usable. The person need not testify, that *is* usable by the officers' testimony. And the courts can, and always have had the capacity, to convict someone under a singular affidavit (which is debatable considering a previous precedent, but could still reasonably happen right now). My suggestion is very easy to understand. A new addition to the rule. A "Duty to contest". It works very simply. Joe Mecli, a civilian, witnesses someone shoot a guy. He yells out "Officer, that guy shot someone" when he sees a cop, who was not a witness to the actual crime. The officer, having heard the blast, arrests the guy on attempted murder charges or some other charges related (Discharge, Unlawful conduct, yadayada). Well now criminal guy Joe Gambino is in a dicey situation. Joe Gambino, is now allowed, by the rules, that if the testimony of the cop reflects what Joe Mecli said, he can locate Joe Mecli, and threaten him to "Contest". Appear in court and say "Nah that didnt happen". This is the most fair addition to the rule, reflecting the new rules of evidence, and how we deal with witness statements. Now that the DAs office is aware that they can do this shit, they're going to be doing it *a lot*. And there needs to be a balance. The technicality of the rules should be that you have to locate the person in game, Identify them somehow (tie them to the name), and threaten them that they have to get you an affidavit stating the *opposite* before discovery closes. This should be done with at least 24 hours BEFORE discovery closes, as to provide ample time. Then, if they refuse to testify, or they switch sides again on the stand and say its true and the guy is a criminal, the family of that criminal should be able to give orders on the Joe Mecli, the civilian, for snitching. Kind of a long one, but here's my change to the rule I would make: You cannot PK a civilian for simply witnessing or reporting a crime, it's natural for normal civilians to call the Police or report incidents, while you may attack them for this it is not considered a valid PK reason. You may only PK a Civilian if they are actively collaborating with a government agency to take you down, i.e. signing an affidavit or working directly with police beyond the initial report. If their statements to police are later used by police to establish that a crime was committed, you may locate, identify, and threaten the individual in order to write an affidavit contesting that they never made those statements. If they fail to write that affidavit before discovery closes, or refuse to testify thereafter, or testify and state the opposite (thereby further implicating you), you may PK that person.

IX_Crazy is a notorious minge on the server, even on his 'Serious' roleplaying characters where he should be an example for newer players he fails to do that. The person posting this appeal, DiMeo, is rather new to the server and when he first started playing was minging. That was two months ago, only just recently about almost 2 weeks ago did he actually start playing seriously. He's a good guy, does his best inside the server to try to roleplay and not minge around. With this being said, he should watch the above video for active and idle situations. DiMeo's ban should be reduced from two weeks, he really has just fully started playing the server. Another thing to keep in mind that If I recall Jennay is a Cassano main. I don't mean to be that guy, but it's not difficult to see the correlation here with IX_Crazy, especially with a two week ban for an RDM.

ik this guy he used to punch me all the time tryna get me to shoot him and i couldnt do shit because he had like 3 guys with him so even if i killed him i would get smoked but yeah that dudes a 100 percent minge

So yeah you banned this guy for 2 weeks off of the basis that a minge came up (same guy whos tried to RDM bait our faction members before) called him a "Asshole" and "Stupid Nigger" and you expect him not to react in any negative way?? Im not gonna sit here and say he didnt RDM him but when hes being baited by some minge character who then goes in his DMs and mocks him after and you just justify it by "Oh he had POs and was banned for the same reason" This ban should be decreased 1000% and there should never be some situation where someone gets banned for 2 weeks over being baited by a minge, completly disgraceful.

po x3

https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/lle918FFVIRObsXBb?invite=cr-MSxUSXAsMzIzNDcyMjI5&v=60 another clip of him escalation baiting and being generally toxic.

wouldn't you like to know weather boy Alright leaving this thread now. That boy did in fact RDM, have a good day

You never heard me out, you don't know my character, I was AFK and you just banned me, I have been very supportive of this server, actually had another 160 dollar donation coming up, I wasn't even given the chance to defend myself, and that does not sit right with me.

This guy crazy just goes around RDM baiting factions he doesn't like. a 2 week ban for this guy is excessive. he does not have extensive priors, is a donator, and is still relatively new to the server. this ban should at least be reduced to a 3 day ban, 2 weeks for RDM is excessive.

Your clip is just showing what I said to be true...

+1 hes at the top of the chart

you used to do the same shit shush

im getting mugged im getting mugged im getting mugged peak end right there

What ever admin PKed you is a retard

listen buddy, as someone who's completely deaf in one ear, dont you fucking dare make proximity chat

Really? The black box that appears hovering in the air and articulates what's in the container will be more gamified if you take 9 clicks away? You know what maybe you're right. In fact I think they should make a completely different UI where you have to physically grab 3D models and shove them in your pockets.

what if instead of halloween event it was freaky halloween and instead of turning you into a monster the government kissed you passionately and licked the insides of your cheeks

are you staff?

bro is defending himself with saying hes gonna spend money

who are you?

Hello, Banning staff here! I chose to ban you because based off the clip I was given you did not follow proper escalation. When someone verbally insults you, you can react with punching or melee but you cannot just shoot and kill. With that you also had previous note on October 6th for that exact problem (RDM not following proper escalation) and a 14 day ban on August 22nd For RDM. From the information I had it seems that you have been given the time to learn and know the rules on proper escalation and what is and is not RDM and unfortunately you continue to not follow them. Please read the killing guideline rules.

i think you rdm'd me

man leave this new jit alone

-1 wtf

Is this an question or something? Cause I didn't gpt any of it. You can write a whole essay and put it into ChatGPT, Zero, and it will 9/10 flag something over 200 words. We can hop on a call, which I know you probably don't want to do, but I can write it in front of you to prove it's not AI. The only AI I have is the Grammarly spell check, but I also see how you think it's AI because many players use it to be lazy in forums or WL apps.

-1 Type your own or bind it. I'll write my own if I want everyone to see my weapon drawing RP.

I have had people argue at me that automatic /me's reduce rp because the player isn't doing it themself manually. Also have had complaints that automatic /me's make 'sneaky' actions impossible, which is sort of true, cops will just have an inherent advantage for evidence and what not, would sort of defeat the purpose of a concealed weapon imo. Lastly while i do enjoy adding automatic /me's to things it can be spammed and be rather annoying. Things to consider.

Buddy make a time travel machine and go back to the 80s in New York. This is a video game u really think people are gunna stay 100% serious. You don’t understand that people like to play this server without staying 100% in character, game would be too serious and lame to play without the funny moments. U take this game too serious and u care a lil too much about the seriousness of it, pls get a job

Buddy go back to being retired no one missed U Chrissy
