  1. Ban has long since expired, further on the clip given you try to fear RP a non immobilized vehicle, running directly Infront of it before shoot the driver. Look up the person you killed, it does not seem like they were in violation of NLR and you did leave within a 15 minute cooldown. "the car must be completely immobilized, either pitted, unable to move or in a parked and blocked position. FearRP does not apply to individuals in a moving car. 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.

You may not re-appeal this PK.
  3. This character has been deleted and makes it unrecoverable. Further you were part of a group who fail-mugged in a yellowzone infront of clothing store, you must initiate and pull to a redzone you cannot mug where you stand in a yellowzone.

  4. "Prostitution, loan-sharking, numbers. The kid liked to wet his beak in everything." It's either Vincent Gigante or Anthony Salerno. Gigante according to his lawyer and his doctors had an IQ said to be 70-80 with 20+ visits to various psychiatrist facilities with dementia linked to organic brain damage. In 1981, Philip Lombardo was said to be in poor health, so he named Vincent "The Chin" Gigante as the 'boss' and Anthony "Fat Tony" Salerno as the 'front boss' and underboss to confuse law enforcement. Leading to 1985 mafia trials where Salerno was sentenced to 100 years. Media portrayed him a the defacto boss of the Genovese Crime Family at the time. In 1990 Gigante was indicted under murder and racketeering charges and famously attend court in his pajamas or his bathrobes and argued the insanity approach. He was convicted still, he was routinely given up as part of investigations as the boss, by even his own family. Rival families gave up his name as an open secret that he was infact the boss and Anthony was the 'front boss' he was even rumored to be given the 'capo di tutti capi' the "Boss of All Bosses" told by other mafioso's after he was incarcerated. He was said to rule through 'committee-style leadership' with many of his decisions and leadership of Genovese Family ruled by a 'panel' of made men, who continued to do so after his conviction, with his direct input being vague in both cases. Leading to either Gigante through is mental incompetency or Salerno for taking a 100 year conviction for being don, as being the most infamous shadow dons.

    Pk

    Hey there. You were PKed for 'raiding government property multiple times and boasting about it through advertisements'. I would reflect upon this behavior, but this PK seems valid. Further you have deleted the character making it unrecoverable. 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.
  6. This is your first offense, so I will reduce it to 11 days ( effectively unbanning you. ) Although, I 100% believe, you did what you were accused of. You have multiple characters crossing with both of the people you mentioned, you added both of killem's characters to the same bank and I genuinely think you guys were abusing mechanics and talking about it in a 3rd party chat. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and accepted. The ban will be reduced to 11 days.

    Hey there. I was the one to unpk your character last time as the person involved was deemed a mugging character. It's reasonable enough to assume you knew exactly what was going on the moment they pulled guns, which coincided with you trying to run away. In that decision you made the choice not to comply, in between that is 8-9 seconds and you seeing two guys directly pointing guns and yelling at you. The defense that you they didn't give you enough time here isn't valid and isn't reasonable after watching the clip. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. As Monaclu said. You must know that the arrest would lead to felony charges. Further, you tell Senior Officer Jamal Babatunde to 'go away', he does. So you can shoot the other officer. This is fail-corruption as you and Mr Babatunde's mains are both in Supreme. Leading to an unfortunate PD blacklist for Jamal. I will be denying your appeal given all that has been said.
  10. You admit to the actions and that is commendable. If this was a longer ban it is possible you'd have been reduced. However, the ban is up in 6-7 hours. You've gotten 3 notes and started playing in November. Therefor this is a reasonable ban and your appeal will be denied. 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.
  11. There are too many people who come to just 'fuck around'. Getting rid of it is counter-productive and will cause a great deal of upset players, I'd be upset if I got rdmed and was told no comp. People would claim bias, make staff reports and discord tickets and become a tedious rage farm. Getting rid isn't going to help rp. It'd promote negative behavior from a subset of the gmod population, 'i RDMed that guy with a class 4 dude! i killed 5 people with guns with my knife!', are we forgetting the most popular gmod videos are troll videos.. Guns are tied to players direct time, the time it took to get said item. For a new player this can be much greater, thus punishing new players exorbitantly and promoting bad play. There are many times a legitimate compensation should be in order, there are many times in low population time. People get RDMed, people don't get comped, or god forbid someone doesn't have medal running the background. The command has provisions, if someone gets a gun, its not a new gun. It's a gun they PREVIOUSLY had and it goes through a staff review process to deem if it's legitimate. It's not adding anything that wasn't there. In the few times it's used where it shouldn't be, it's either a mistake, staff abuse, or a common sense sympathy compensation. ( again not adding anything that wasn't there before. ) Further, the compensation command only compensates 1 random item, can't be spammed and can still lead to a net loss. What is best for players? Letting people lose their hard earned guns and their time, because rp? They needed to be MORE careful?! It's better for the economy this way? People would rightfully be pissed, feel cheated and it'd turn off a lot of people. -1

    PK Appeal

    Hello, while I empathize with the situation and friends have made it clear how much they appreciate and care for your RP. The major issue here, is you didn't inform or contact staff when this happened; you connected an hour and 40 minutes later, deposited your stuff and went on. You didn't make a ticket at such a time either. The clip provided can't definitively say whether you disconnected, as part of client side bug or a user disconnection. To point out, you do move after gunshots and typically logs will show differently for cases of a crash or a timeout. The convenience of crashing at that exact time can't be ignored and you have failed to provide enough evidence for you defense. You state you had a thunderstorm and wifi kept going on and off, implying you should have had wifi at some point or access to the internet, to make a discord ticket or to inform staff in any way; even just when it came back on. Secondly, you state this has been a recurring issue with gunshots. Which means you were aware of the issue, which means you took the risk of playing with the possibility of a crash. ( and the consequence's thereof. ) The area you were mugged is also a red zone or a 'mugged where stand' zone. Meaning you were fair game. I have also investigated the user and it can't be proven they are a mugging character at this time. I can understand the gesture, you'd give back the items they'd have acquired mugging off of you. But you didn't actively attempt to do so, until your character was at jeopardy. Effectively rolling the dice. This is the clip provided https://screenapp.io/app/v/7xDb8JxsP2 and with the logs attached. I must deny the appeal at this time.
  14. After investigation the character that PKed you was used as primarily a mugging and consequences free character. It was found to have been used as a middle man in racket abuse. The character that PKed you has been PKed as a result and the user has been issued a ban. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.
  15. Simply put, there is no reason to legally sell your clothing. There is a considerable tax rate, that people would rather not pay, which has killed off nearly every brick and mortar clothing store. To give a proper reasoning to legally sell these items. I suggest we create a business postal service, to legally transfer items via bank accounts or char ids. You setup a business, sign up for it ( attached to your char name. ). Then you can interact and drop the item into a drop box ( no drug items ), with a prompt for the ID of the bank account or char id, for it to be transferred to, and a spot to enter the value of the item. ( they could lie, but if they get caught, consequences. ) Which will generate the cost, which includes tax on the specific item. So, people can not worry about tedious paperwork. Reasoning is pretty simple. Setup a marketplace for legal businesses. With minimal, to no google doc rp. They browse a catalog. Send money via money transfers, ( Which ICly should be protected from rico. ) Receive said item, or are able to pick up at the 'post office'. Encourages, a mostly passive legal business for whitelist owners and allows a healthy tax rate to take money out of the economy.
  16. The issue here, is the image you projected. I can't verify any sortof metagame against you, but the IC circumstances made you look guilty. The criminal faction, thought you were snitching and killed you. While, you made some points, to why you wouldn't be a snitch, they seemed to fail to consider them beforehand. This can happen, mafia wasn't exactly known for a fair trial and while, you can accuse them of bias against you and that sortof thing. There isn't any direct evidence ( or enough ), to say, they killed you because of that reason. Further, you have deleted the character and unfortunately this makes it unrecoverable and I must deny your appeal regardless. 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.
  17. Okay. So, I can't verify any metagame specifically against the Cash. But @Haze those DM's are some light metagame. Don't be using DMs for drug deals or to talk about IC issues, those details should be discussed ICly. I see your friend saying someone is 'banging on your door' and you saying 'its my homies saying matteo ( a police detective ) is watching us again'. That sortof thing, while just a quick heads-up is still metagame. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt here, and say you didn't INTEND to to metagame and thought what you were doing was okay. But, please. Be careful in future.
  18. Appeal withdrawn. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. You may not re-appeal this PK.
  19. Hey there. You were PKed on don's orders for [ being suspected of ] robbing a fellow faction member. I have been unable to verify this claim and may have been grounds for appeal, however you have deleted the character. Unfortunately, this makes it unrecoverable and as such, I must deny this appeal. In future please wait before deleting the character. 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.
  20. Hey there, 1. and 4. : So while you may have been hired as just a butcher. You talked to the guy outback and ordered a shipment of guns for yourself. When we check this, we see if you had ordered any drugs or weapons from their racket. You can't secretly order from their racket and in this case you have and recently. If you hadn't this would be an easy accept. ( You would have been considered an entry level employee, without intimate knowledge. ) 2. and 3. : You should have taken the fact, that the people who managed and worked at said establishment were trying to get your name, to bring you back into the fold. ( think of how you were hired. ) Many times, people take time away and need to be reintroduced. This does not however, give you total impunity in roleplay terms AND you were back for days on their whitelist.
  21. 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.
  22. Hey there. After reviewing the evidence and discussing it. While it could be argued that you may have lagged, on the provided clip. You pass the cop car, clipping it. Then turn around, scrape a wall and go full speed into the car next to the cop. You could not provide your own POV to verify any sort of lag, which makes your defense difficult and it could be argued you, you were doing this for nefarious reasons. While cops shouldn't go straight to executing, you hit the person, at full speed, backed up at as fast as you can and you had just used your car as a weapon against another officer-ie; realistic threat, realistic initiation against an officer. If you had stayed in the car, not moved after. The PK would have likely been reversed. ( as cookies also stated. ) But, given the nature, I must deny this.
  23. 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.
  24. Hey there. There was some suspicion for this PK. You had logs of hitting the guy who ordered the hit with a bat, then got hired by them and killed by the guy who hired you, not even 7 hours later.. If you did 'just' got to a party without permission that is far from grounds for a 'Unwarranted Harm in a financial (+10,000$) or repeated physical way,' and you should have been spoken about this at least once. Unfortunately. Regardless of the suspicious circumstances. You have deleted said character. Making any hoped of recovery impossible and as such I must deny your appeal.
