You stole a business idea from an rp criminal via dms in an IC context, thought you could get away with it, because of DMs, tried to extort via dms. Complaints were made and UA approved. You were threatened ICly and made aware of the consequences. Tried to make a new character to avoid the consequences and were even banned for metagame for that. This was dragged out, you were told what to expect and you did it anyway. This has nothings to do with power game, you can quote any rule you'd like, you can argue semantics of the business model. 'being different', but ultimately you acted in bad faith here ( tried to act with impunity using dms as a shield ) and we don't see the business model being fundamentally different. As well as the timing here, is question to say the least. The entire circumstance leading to your death was UA approved, you were given a chance to back off. You even had chance to plead your case, if your business model was fundamentally different, but chose to try to do it on a new character instead. That in itself proves bad faith. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

Hey there! You were pked for a slew of reasons. Missing kickups, aswell as being seen multiple times talking to cops. You were also found in their faction investigation to be selling strikers. You were also arrested, alleged to have lied about being arrested and as stated were considered a liability. You know what you did. Generally if you join a criminal faction, you accept the risk. You've been transferred into a criminal faction. Joining an illegal organization means accepting the realities of criminal life. You will have the possibility of becoming rich and powerful beyond your wildest dreams, but this comes with the risk of being permanently killed, including by fellow faction members on orders of your boss. By proceeding you understand this. While you may have an argument if it was just 'missing kickups', your collective actions ultimately leads us to deny this appeal. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

Hey there. Given the situation and the event going on, this was a simple mistake within event rules. The staff who gave you the information was incorrect, as this is specific to event rules and there are still some kinks that are being worked out. I will be accepting this appeal on these basis. To clarify, you must raid or properly identify the target or you will be punished. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and accepted. The ban will be lifted from your account shortly. If it was deemed an invalid ban, it will also be removed from your record.

Hello, banning staff. You went across the rooftop ontop of the gambino apartments and fired and killed someone and injured two others. After I took the sit, I spectated you and saw you ontop of city hall, attempting to shoot a random person across the street. At this point I pulled you away for visible rule break. When I brought you into the sit, you immediately started to lie about what occurred and gave an antagonistic attitude towards me and the situation. Saying essentially, that you did nothing and outright lied about it. When I gave a clip and said I personally witnessed you atop of cityhall. You said you didn't care and tried to bait the other people in the sit. At this point you started an argument, where one of them drew a gun, then put it away. I didn't see that they fired. Keep in mind there was 3 other people who were involved, all against you. I attempted to deescalate things, albeit inappropriate behavior from them. Around 30 seconds after you said something like, 'fuck this' and pointed your gun and shot me and the other people in the sit room. At which point I phys gunned you and banned you. At no point giving an attitude that you cared whatsoever. https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/kQVEiN3ebdPzOw-0E?invite=cr-MSxJaWcsNDEzMzk2MjA4 EDIT: Also wanted to point out, you claim you shot 'at my friend as a joke' while everyone involved was clearly not your friends and all made tickets against you. You joined the server 24 days ago. You have amassed 3 Bans before this one totaling ( 4 Days, 12 Hours ). You have 5 notes and given that blatancy and disregard, I deemed a 7 day ban appropriate.

Hey there PKing staff. Your character was PKed for initiating a violent confrontation with police, by pulling your gun on the officer as he was arresting someone else. Your gun having no bullets in this circumstance is irrelevant. The act of pointing the gun at the police, in this case, is counted as 'initiating a violent confrontation'. I'm not sure with the speed of how the events unfold, that the officer failed to do due diligence. As at the time, it could be taken as a credible threat against his life and I do not see this as an execution. TO recap:

Voice messages could be cool, possibly prerecord instructions, or training guides. Some concerns with how the ingame pager is used and people using it to minge. Phones for businesses make sense, possibly have them pay for a 'special number'. But a strict landline attached to a wall. I think would be a little bit of a nuisance. As a follow up, I think adding a code you could add to your phone. That gives you access to any 'business call' made to the business, would be a better implementation. Sim cards weren't manufactured till 1991, I think adding them is a little redundant, may account for a pointless price increase. As opposed to just getting another phone.

Hi there! Staff involved here. I restricted your character creation, after it appears you had been using it to facilitate money and to a lesser extent item transfer. You were using characters as disposable, typically to mug and pooling any wealth and items accumulated with your friend, any time one of your characters was PKed, it would immediately received a large sum of cash. Either facilitated through creating new character for the specific purpose, to obscure transferring money or through an alt steam, who's only time on the server was used to act as a bank. Either handing out money or receiving money, or shared access to their bank. You, your friend and the alt were banned and char wiped for this incident. You and your friend were restricted to prevent the use of disposable character for the purpose of money transfer. That being said, the mechanic appears have been a non factor for a non donator. As 2 characters, is what it restricted to you. That being said, you just donated, and that you accepted punishment for the offense. I have no issues if they decide to lift the character restriction.

Hey there! The reason for your death as stated by the PKing staff, was a dons order PK. The stated reasons; causing issue with another faction, bringing police attention and getting one of their member locked up.. This is a risk you take when you participate in a criminal faction. Further, you have already deleted the character. Which unfortunately makes it unrecoverable and makes any appeal mute. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hey there! So after staff discussion, we will be accepting the PK appeal on a few basis. The clip is cut extremely quickly doesn't give enough time for the person to react, the iniation begins almost immediately. It doesn't explain the context prior. The person in question appeared to be sitting and waiting, his last log prior being a couple minutes across the city ordering oil. Meaning he went directly to the spot, to mug in less than a two minutes, which leaves a lot of unanswered question. Further breaking it down, it takes about a second for the voice to transmit through gmod, the angle you approach is through a side angle. Being that it takes a second to transmit your voice, the clip plays, albeit with some caveats, too much like the inhiation of FEAR RP wasn't clear and he didn't have sufficient time to react. He opens and gets into his car, as your are trying to initiate the mugging. Backs up as you are saying you are going to kill him. The clips play: 00:02 - 00:03 - 'this is a mugging you idjiot' 00:03 - Victim unlocks and presumably opens the door ( on door open script. ) 00:03 - Mugger says 'Stand still' 00:04 - 00:05 - If you get in the car I'll kill you 00:05 - Victim drives backwards ( as mugger is saying ' ill kill you' ) 00:06 - Mugger starts shooting and nearly instantly kills the the guy Considering it takes a second for voice to transmit, you can see the issue. You can claim common sense, but he should have a second for the fear RP, to respond to it. In this situation, the start he could be running autopilot. The short clip, the situation prior and potential for metagame, will all attribute to me accepting this appeal. Further while not a mugging character persay. The person involved has a substantial record/ mugging record which was also taken into consideration.

Hello! It appears you have withdrawn you appeal. It is unfortunate but you appear to have been PK'ed ( Permanently Killed. ) by way of Don's order. This is a risk you accept when joining a criminal faction.. By your withdrawal of the appeal, I will assume you have been caught up on the reasoning. The reply from Logan should be more than sufficient as a further explanation. But to touch on it, you were seen in public talking to police, you seemed to have caused 'internal conflict' and you seem to have drawn attention from PD, presumably at another time. So you were killed/assassinated in rp. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this PK to be reasonable and/or justified. You may not re-appeal this PK.

not sure why everyone so mad here, this looks great! the cartel de michocan! Where there is no government, and the law exists at the end of a gun, a new cartel rose from the ashes of mayhem in the Sinaloa highlands—La Serpiente Negra. Tomás "El Colmillo" Barrera was a Federal Police commander in 1973, one of the few who had resisted corruption. In the gioco della malavita—the deadly game of the underworld—where loyalty is written in blood, men like him were rare. When Barrera refused a multimillion-dollar payoff from one of the massive cartels, the consequences were brutal. Three days after he passed information to the government about cartel activity, a revenge assassination meant for him struck his family instead. His wife and two sons were found dead in a charred SUV dumped outside their home. At first, there was outrage. Officers cried. Reporters came. But then—nothing. No arrests. No retaliation. No hush money. Just a bitter silence and a sense of disarray. Then Barrera disappeared. For five years, he was off the grid. Many believed he was dead. He wasn’t. He was underground. Barrera had found others like him—disillusioned soldiers, rogue intelligence agents, and sicarios tired of killing for cowards in suits. Men who didn’t want money. They wanted justice. Together, they formed something new. Not a cartel—not exactly. More like a war machine. Disciplined. Tactical. Focused. No matching colors, but a shared purpose. Each man driven by revenge. Their attacks weren’t just effective—they were unpredictable. They didn’t leave warnings or threats. They left silence. Their enemies were dead before anyone knew they were in danger. Their symbol—a black serpent coiled around a combat knife—became infamous, whispered in fear across towns that no longer bustled, where law enforcement had long since stopped showing up. La Serpiente Negra became a ghost force with real power. They now command drug corridors, arms smuggling routes, cryptocurrency laundering operations, and mercenary contracts that span the Americas. They control 80% of all gun trafficking into the United States, and dominate major international drug routes across the continent. But what makes them different isn’t their violence. It’s their intelligence. No one knows who leads them. Communications are encrypted and layered in code. No one knows the names of their captains. Training takes place in sealed bunkers deep in the jungle or hidden beneath city streets. Their reach extends from cartel heartlands to urban warzones. They don’t announce themselves. They don’t show force. They strike once. And that’s all it takes.

POSTED BY REQUEST: ( not my character ) Name of Character: Danny Doga SteamID: 76561199675797353 / STEAM_0:1:857765812 Your Discord ID#: 750377740389056563 Date of PK: 05/06/2025 Reason for PK: mugging Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: they couldnt have known it was me i was literally wearing different clothes after i robbed him and had changed my description it doesnt make sense after i mugged him i took my clothes off and became a white shirt running around then i went afk after 20 mins i put a different suit on which doesnt link to me at all and they still pk me after the 30 mins

This is fairly obvious. You took the gun out of your bank and within a minute, as the cassette shipment crate was counting down to 0. You shot the guy at 1 second. So your friend standing on the shipment could get it. A cassette store version of "Frank Sinatra - Luck be a Lady". You then left the server 2 minutes later. While you may not realize it, this is against he killing rules. If you had placed him under FEAR RP or handled the situation differently. This would not have been RDM ( Random Death Match ). But I think you were just being a little sneaky here. It is also considering LTAP ( Leaving to avoid punishment ), as you recently killed someone and disconnected under a damage cooldown. I realize you have no record up until this point, if you had admitted the infractions this would likely have been appeal or reduced. However, I find it hard to believe, even if it is true, that you could not 'remember'. So on these basis I will be denying your appeal. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and denied. We have determined this ban to be reasonable and/or justified. Ensure you have read our Server Rules.
