Hello. Pking Staff Here.
(If you're not involved in this situation please kindly refrain from posting on this thread)
The rule you're referencing does exist however in this context it is not valid i will explain below.
There are other instances where killing someone during a mugging will not result in a PK
- Such as not giving the person reasonable time to react to your demands
- Ordering them to use certain game functions they don't have to comply with or making unreasonable demands (Drop items/cash, hit f7, give me your f3, commit suicide, etc)
This rule is specifically for when they are giving you orders. There is no situation in the server where whilst being mugged and being told to hit F7 Then Refusing to hit F7 and them killing you for refusing to use the game function would fall under a PK.
If you had Ignored their command to click F7 And they shot you. then it would not have been a PK.
In terms of the Targeting Accusation. when staff reach out to you. then you will be expected to provide that proof and this will help with your appeal. if this is indeed a Targeted instance you will most likely be Unpked and the Mugger will not.
You died because you pulled out a gun and fought back whilst being held under FEARRP which can be seen here.
FearRP = Valuing one's life in a realistic manner.
Life Rules.
1. You must value your character’s life. This means that you naturally do not want your character to die. (FearRP) Breaking this can result in a PK at the Staff’s Discretion.
FearRP Rules.
1. While under fearrp it's recommended you oblige by the commands of your captor, if you attempt to escape or pull out a weapon to fight back but are killed that would display a disregard for your own safety, a calculated risk you took which failed, resulting in your PK. (In some circumstances a PK does not apply, view pk rules for more information.) This means it is NOT a rule violation to break fearrp but if you are killed while breaking it there is a possible IC consequence of being PK'ed.
TLDR: If they killed you for refusing it'd be invalid but because you shot them it's a valid death.
Additionally if you had pulled a gun out on safety whilst they were surrounding you. you wouldn't have been under FearRP and would not have had to comply with Any orders or commands issued.
Thank you for your time.
