Hello! To go by your appeal point by point. First, when PKs are sent to staff they are OOC. What causes the PK and what comes after are all valid in RP. The sit itself and the report are OOC and are not affected by NLR. Under the logic you try to argue people wouldn’t be able to report RDM because they don’t remember it due to NLR. Second, the officer shooting was not him starting the violent confrontation. You pulling your weapon out and aiming it at the officer arresting you started the violent confrontation. He was quicker to the draw than you, doesn’t mean you weren’t violent first. 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.

Hello! As already stated you were PK’d for starting a violent confrontation with police. This is clear from you being the one to begin shooting at a clearly marked NYPD officer. His badge is in plain view and his crest on his shoulder is right in your face where you were “trying to place your crosshair” which apparently obscured your vision enough to not see the blue name over his head. The next argument you try to make is that the raid is invalid which means it’s all invalid. That is false for the OOC side of things. If you believe it was illegal that is an IC issue and would be handled via the courts not an OOC PK appeal. The question UA had to decide is that if this raid was false enough to be considered fail corruption which would be an OOC factor affecting your PK. We have decided it is not. The officers had a search warrant for the exact location you were located in. They acted on the location that was signed off on by the judge. Anything beyond that is an IC issue. Appeals are not a way to settle or get around IC issues. 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.

Hello! While investigating this appeal we reviewed the clips provided of both interactions as well as damage logs to help establish a timeline. As shown in the first clip provided by Troubled, and reinforced by logs, the officer in fact began the violent conflict when they opened fire on the vehicle. Whether you were trying to hit him or the car doesn't matter. You take that risk as an officer when you shoot a vehicle. Further more, the time between the conflict started by the officer and the shoot out in the motel is just a couple of minutes. Well within Ghost's self defense period and definitely short enough to consider it the same conflict, not a new separate one started by Ghost's shooting. In the future officer I suggest you be fully honest with your PK tickets and not leave out the part where you shot first. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! As clarified by your factions command already the orders were not from this isolated incident. I have spoken with your HC and was given more direct examples of the reasons for your death. After investigating we have confirmed they had multiple instances of your actions warranting your death. 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.

Hello! While you may claim ignorance to what you did, our logs followed your trail with these bones! As Calink pointed out where they started and how they got to where they were, you were the direct facilitator of that! Regards to your PK, while this is not an appeal for that I can clarify that Calink is correct in his deeming you as involved in the hit. If you choose to appeal the PK, that will be directly looked into with further detail at that time for now this is about the matter of your ban. We feel there is sufficient evidence that you knowingly and willfully helped your friend in attempting to powergame another faction you have had recent conflict with. 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.

Hello! First, to clarify, you weren’t PKd for being put under Fear RP, you were PKd for dying while PK active. You became active the moment you tried to tie this player up. Now, I see your argument that it was accidental. The “evidence” you provided for this just clearly doesn’t add up. You for one cut out the start of the tying. We can’t see if you did it through the C menu or through your F1 inventory where you have to right click and actually click the appropriate option. Second, you keep yourself still and tying them. And finally, you admit yourself your “plan” was to even bait them into using them first to try and PK them. Which is PK hunting and also frowned upon greatly. You played a stupid game and you won a stupid prize. In the future I recommend you don’t randomly try and tie people up or PK hunt to begin with. Helps with avoiding losing your 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.

Hello! Banning admin here. First, you weren't pulled as this was a report made directly through a UA ticket. In this ticket, we were given ample evidence of your actions and the intent of your actions. You have just recently returned from a two month ban from another incident stemming from your mugging habits that even warned you to return with better RP. In this instance, it was shown you had a repeated and clear intent of only mugging one faction. While on it's own not the worst offense your reason to why is why it was decided you had used your last chance. You were target mugging one faction as a form of failed escalation to force actual escalations to happen in a sad attempt to kill off your own faction. This incident right after an extensive ban and your enormous amount of previous, pretty serious, POs showcases you have not learned your lesson and you refuse to engage in quality RP or to be a valued member of our community. For these reasons it was decided your time with us had to come to an end.

Hello! This should have in fact not happened but we need to clarify on the reasons why. First, the location of the mugging. While the clip shows you in that tuck away there is a few issues with this. The tying logs show it happening very close to the corner right beside the NPC. With the clip starting late, it is unable to validated where the initiation happened. If it happened in the FOV of the NPC, it's invalidated from the start. This leads in to the other issue with this PK. The clip itself. As already stated it started late leaving out vital context. On top of this, the audio of the person who clipped it is cut. You can hear the victim, the partner, and can see the clipper is speaking but there is no audio. The would also automatically disqualify this PK as there is too much room to hide potential metagame and the orders being given to the victim are not audible. Finally, there is the issue of the reason you killed him to begin with. He is already tied. While tied, you never make an attempt to drag him while also shooting him for moving when you had control over it. There was also no attempt to search him or actually take the items. You sat there and wasted time while never actually continuing with the mugging. This combined with your own admission in the clip showed you were not there to mug him. You were there to try and PK hunt and sadly this was accepted thus giving you what you wanted. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! There seems to be a major misconception here. You were not PKd by your precious faction, you were in fact PKd by your current faction. With that clarification, they had multiple reasons to kill you. One was for deciding to take photos up someone’s skirt. That someone was an allied factions HCs wife. Second, you had not paid your dues in a month. While your Capo may have been ill informed, it was a valid orders. 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.

Hello! As already clearly laid out by Boom, you were PK’d for the blatant metagaming in the mugging. The mugging char was a separate additional report received on top of that. The metagame is clear as day which is already enough to have killed this character. For the mugging char, while you may have cared about the character in the past, all signs point to this being a mugging char now. 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.

Hello! After an investigation was conducted, it was made clear there was heavy metagame involved here. The users guilty of such have been dealt with and your PK will be getting reversed. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Please fill out the appeal format if you wish for this to be reviewed.

Hello! So, while being mugged at a stash could be against the rules in this situation I would say that is not what happens. First, they did not approach you while you were at or using your stash. You had multiple moments where you were just standing idle by your car away from your stash, or sitting idle in your car. Both of these instances would have given you ample time to leave the area. In your own third clip, you discuss that you knew yourself you were being mugged. You chose to then run putting your character at risk. In the end, you died resulting in your PK. 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.
