Can you provide any evidence that you were exempt from kickups in the first place? @Eviddy
-
Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted.
-
So, we can see you did infact pay kickups through logs. I have reviewed the messages you sent, a big thing however is, it is clear you missed kickups. Which does harm the faction/family you are in. You arrange through dms, to make a time. They accept the time, meet with you, you pay them, and then they order your death. Reviewing the PK guidelines "The person in question, has repeatedly done something to directly harm you, the family, or another member of the family" "Continued and repeated (despite warnings) poor behaviour, misconduct, violation of your family rules or even blatant disrespect of made men in your organization." While you are guilty of harm, you are not guilty of repeated harm and as no other reason was given besides failing to pay kickups, which you did. This PK appeal will be accepted on these grounds and you will be placed in the civ faction with any rp relating to your exit voided. EDIT: Or it would have been unpked, however you appear to have deleted the character making is unrecoverable.

Sorry this took so long, to point out a few things here. There IS an inherent risk to trying to escape in the water. Typically we'd like to see the officers bringing the guy to shore, and making a reasonable attempt at arresting the guy, so as a mechanism to PK the guy, this is not intended, however if you are at fault for drowning it can and typically will be a PK. There was some debate over this, you were tazed in water and sank, you then say essentially you're complying, then you were cuffed under water and died. Me and some others were under the impression that you had no ability to swim up. it appears you CAN swim up when cuffed at the bottom like that, however you need to be looking straight up while he drags you and sometimes that doesn't behave properly. Given that this was not known and there was some ambiguousness to the death, potentially the dragging itself causing the PK death by suffocation. The PKing staff had offered to restart the RP with the suspect in cuffs. When this was refused by the officer, the character was PKed. After a conversation about this, we'd have much rather have had the RP restarted given the uncertainty of who's fault this death was and because of the refusal by the officer and the pressure from said officer to the staff for the PK, it comes off as PK hungry. We have deemed this PK to be invalid on these basis, the fault could have been the officers and that RP could have easily continued. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

+1 would be funni and make a lot of people upset

Hello PKing staff here. I had the unfortunate job of PKing your character. I was given two clips and being you were offline at this time. I offline PKed your character. 1st Clip: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iO7o1yM2V70hNWqX2/d13375v6EXOT?invite=cr-MSxORjAsMTk2MzAwODIxLA - This clip shows the cop reacting to gun shots, seeing you run past a ragdoll/body. He attempted to get the bottom of this by asking in RP through text chat. You seemingly ignore this cop, so he chases you. 2nd Clip: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iO7p5pItO1uneZ2he?invite=cr-MSw1a2IsLEZPUl9ZT1U - This clip continues the previous one, it shows the cop chasing you and demanding you to stop in text chat, getting ignored again. He then in the middle of chasing you gets run over by a third party. You proceed to pull out your gun and start blasting, hitting the officer several times. He then pulls out a gun, where you say 'sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to do that' then you disconnect from the server. Unfortunately, as you were in a situation that was likely going to lead to your PK and you chose to disconnect, whilst PK active. I determined this to be a valid PK. " Killing or attacking an Officer after initiating a violent confrontation leaves you PK active from officers for about 15 minutes."

Hey there. Banning staff here. So I banned you for an incident that was reported via discord ticket. When I investigated you had blatantly tied someone up while they were using the clothing store NPC "https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/iQlyG0OkYx7Ch3DiT?invite=cr-MSxNa0ssLEZPUl9ZT1U", when I investigated your notes and bans you had multiple relating to fail mugging. So I deemed it appropriate to ban you for 3 days. Your friends ban was issued by another staff at their discretion and may have been related to fewer notes or other circumstances. The PK was a separate incident, wherest you mugged someone and died in the attempt, which was also deemed a fail mugging by the pking staff. Which also took place after the incident that I banned you for. if you'd like to appeal that, you'll have to appeal via PK appeal. However that PK looked fairly cut and dry, dieing in the attempt.

1. 'Lights, flashing lights. She don't believe in shootin' stars' 2. Speakers phone could be funni. Also could be mingey. 3. So in a sense, if a cop is around, catches you and you have to risk a PK to kill him to continue your RP. You successfully roll the dice and kill him. You want the cop to be able to yell/possibly radio for backup? Presumably at the range you're speaking, the gunshots; even silenced would be enough to indicate to cops close enough. Making this redundant for how you suggested it and brokenly overpowered otherwise. As for tools. Spikes, could work but I feel like people would just continue to just drive with the popped tires In their bugatti's and ferraris and still get away from cops. Also I'd have concerns if it's done improperly could just end up blowing up the vehicles, or used to grief buildings. I could see something where it's possible to request one for an ongoing chase, but to just give them to every officer to use, I'd probably be less for ( i know you said cpl + ). On the other hand, you could always just make them stupidly expensive. 10-20k per strip or limit them to ESU flags. Pepperspray, if it incapacitates its essentially like the tazor, for just bluring their vision, sure but the range would need to be close. If it is close range, friendly fire needs to be taken into account, not to mention accidently pepperspraying yourself for running into an area you just peppersprayed. If they are running away and at a range, and you're not affected. Its essentially an overpowered flashbang and you'd quickly end up with broken PVP and people abusing (possibly through walls). Batons to break bones, would 1000% just be abused by every single probie and cadet around and probably become a problem very quickly, maybe just have the right click baton pause their movement for a second or split second longer if this is really problem. Cops are already exempt from being PKed for the most part, which already gives them the immunity to go into situation that wouldn't make realistic sense. So cops on any detainment are gonna break peoples legs 'so you can't get away' or 'just incase', sure IA whatever, but this seems like a problem to me. Aswell as, if a cop did break someone's leg, have they now started a violent altercation? Giving the crim a chance to shoot and die without pk repercussions? 'I'mma just run around until the cops break my legs, oh I can shoot now.' Criminals need a chance, it's already favored for cops and it should be favored for cop. But a delicate balance needs to be considered, at a point you might aswell just have the teleporting baton stick if there's literally no chance to get away, not saying your suggestions would cause such an imbalance, just that it needs to be carefully considered.

Thought this was already accepted?

Hello PKing staff here. First off, it had been about an hour and you were offline by the time I processed this PK. I was given a clip where you were being rammed to the side of the road for a traffic incident, for which I was told you refused to comply. You then kept saying it was "an accident", telling them to chill. They then pulled out cuffs and attempted cuff you. You pulled out a gun, attempted to fire but it clicked as you needed to reload. You then reloaded but by that time you were killed. https://medal.tv/?contentId=iF659qDZPkfpWv9k9&invite=cr-MSxmcGIsMjIyMDYyOTE3LA&spok=d1337p82Ii92 ( her mic is quiet here, but you can hear her. ) As soon as you pulled out the gun it is considered starting a violent confrontation with police, however if you believe some sort of fail-rp occurred, I'd by happy to take a look. However if you directly rammed their car, they seemingly had a valid reason to arrest you- regardless if some clipping occurred between the officer and another third party.

I imagine, you could use an RNG generator to determine if a business makes a profit and it's not hard to RNG the business on a spreadsheet once or twice a month ( 1 - 10 ) for profit or loss. This could be implemented into existing DOP, DOC as previously mentioned. Also like I mentioned, I'm willing to work on developing the system further if the powers that be, deem it a worthwhile endeavor. Also wanted to say, if you wanted to implement more mafia control, you could have staff tickets to escalate on static businesses much easier ( fire bombs or 'temporarily destroyed' ). Thus allowing 'protection or extortion' from mafia interests. With main properties being a projections of power on static businesses Mapping the street addresses this would add 66 static addresses, not to mention the possibility with other businesses types not tied to static addresses ( vending machines, hotdog vender etc ) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r7WgFt9OxMQKln5erBWmlCFh4lkXsghf_aGznFa0tI0/edit

Fairly simple, I think all of the static properties, billboards, vending machines, chest tables, phone booths should be purchasable by players and they should be extortatable, used for control and managed as passive income investment properties. I have mapped the city to give an outline of what that would look like based upon the city streets and arbitrarily assigned numbers to the specific city locations, I'm willing to do work such as to take pictures of each location to create a purchasing catalog. If there is any interest in pursuing this further. Attached is a map of the city with North being on North Road and everything I could think to map https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r7WgFt9OxMQKln5erBWmlCFh4lkXsghf_aGznFa0tI0/edit ( Addresses ) Further I suggest the following: Phone Booth = Used to connect to eachother for calls, preset numbers for the phonebooths and number dialable. Mail = Mail system, send clothing items in the mail. Supporting custom clothing and makes sense to compliment bank transfers for purchases. Newspaper = Recent PK Messages/ Setable by staff.

A medal clip was provided and I have searched log to verify, you don't actually kill anyone or do damage to any cops on the clip, you're clearly holding a cig and the radio call appears to be bad or reacting to the wrong person. Either way it doesn't clearly show you starting a violent altercation with police, therefore this appeal will be accepted. However you have deleted the character so it is impossible to reinstate.

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