Reason for ban: "Item Transfer"
Length of ban: 5 days I’d like to appeal my ban for “item transfer.”
From my understanding of the rule, it specifically prohibits transferring items or money between my own characters or acting as a middleman for someone else doing that. In this situation, I did not transfer anything between my own characters.
What actually happened was that, due to a lack of active buyers over several days, we used another player’s character to sell products through normal in-character transactions. At the time, I believed this was legitimate roleplay trading, not item transferring, since the rule does not explicitly mention selling through another player’s character as prohibited.
There was no intent to bypass progression systems or exploit mechanics—only to continue roleplay and move goods in a stalled market.
If this does fall under the rule’s interpretation, I understand and will not repeat it. However, I’d appreciate reconsideration or a reduced punishment due to the ambiguity and lack of malicious intent. As for the screenshot, we had several barrels of meth that we professedly processed. The guy I was playing with has lots of time on the server and never said anything about being banned so I truly did not have any bad intent. The admin that spoke to us kept saying I had that character since November however, I had only hopped on the server one time to see how it is. I also never switched to a different character during my 3 days of playtime, and this was truly my first time putting hours into the server and really wanted to keep playing and add value to the server. I truly hope we can reach an agreement solve this issue.
