Alright so you didn't watch the video, this is going to be a book. I gave you a chance for me to be really lenient in this appeal reply and you threw it out the window. So, let's start at the very beginning. You say this all began when Pierre kidnapped your fellow faction member. You only know it is Pierre from what you admitted was OOC information of the name on the door. We aren't going to get into how you began this conflict with OOC information, we will just focus on what came after. You first, opened a ticket wanting to PK the Pierre character for kidnapping your friend. Someone who was never put under fearRP, was locked in a room, that he had full access to a phone for. He did eventually call the cops to come and doorkick him out. When these officers arrive, you use the information you gained from the door to then try and snitch on the Pierre character. When told no, you could not PK them, and the cop told you to leave and stop interrupting his investigation, you proceeded to follow them for almost twenty minutes around the city. At one point, they do pick you up after you get ran over by someone, and they take you into the casino. Once there, you and Yokai have a shootout. You kill them, and you admit, that was the end of that conflict / RP. You also, have a clip of this gun fight. This clip, you very interestingly, changed the name of after you needed to use it for evidence. Want to know what the original name of the clip was? "GambinoK." Posted below is the clip and it's title now, and a screenshot showing the original title in Discord where you shared it, before changing the name. Clip Screenshot Now, I can easily answer to you why I knew it was you, Pearce. I am staff. On my staff character, I can see your steam name. Now, tell me, how did you know that you killed a Gambino, Patch, on an alternative character? Especially as, apparently I told you it was Patch, but that clip was made before you ever spoke to me and before I ever told you it was Patch. You changed the name of the clip to share it with me in the sit room. This, brings us up to where a new conflict began. You and Yokai wanted to keep messing with Patch on his alt character. You may argue it is not targeting, but I will call you on your bullshit. You have a history of revenge RDM, metagame, and now blatantly lying about knowing who it is. So yes, you were targeting. You went up to a group of three SOS members, in front of the old Barzini Cigar lounge vacant shop. You and Yokai ask these three very clear actual SOS members, if the French guy running around in their jacket is one of theirs. They all three tell you that he is not, they do not know who he is, and to do what you want. You and Yokai say "bet", get back in your car, and leave. So, now I must ask, where do you get off telling me you were going after an allied faction who had a lower member messing with you after said faction told you he was not apart of them? Also another interesting question, when did SOS join the Underground Association? Pretty sure they aren't your allies so care to explain that to me or have your HC and theirs explain that to Canadian on how you guys magically have a larger than five member alliance? Also, Yokai isn't in your alliance either; weird, right? Screenshot of alliances if anyone needs more information on this question. This brings us up to where this infamous car chase began on completely false premises outside of you wanting to fuck with someone on an alternative character who has made your life a living hell on the server and just so conveniently that day your Don also happened to die. You are chasing them in a white Subaru for almost 20 minutes. There happens to be another white Subaru driving around that has Yokai's intern. You two proceed to continue to chase and ram both of these white Subarus. At one point, Yokai's intern asks you, while alone in a different car, why you guys are doing this. Yokai tells you that is the wrong car and they are not in that car. So at this point, you know his intern is not with Patch and the other citizen. Explain to me, how you chasing that car now is assisting your "ally" in any way at all? This car chase continues and you eventually arrive at the turn behind the hospital and beside the PD. They (the white Subaru containing Patch and a citizen) crash into a fire hydrant. Your car crashed into a light pole beside them. You then get out of of your car and shoot an entire magazine into the back window. This takes me back to my original question. Did you watch the video on escalation and active threats? Not once did their vehicle ram you, run over you, or did they ever try to hit you or shoot you. After this you get back in your car and you find them at the car dealership. They respawn their car still actively ignoring you. You try to steal their car, run over your own "ally", the citizen then moves his ragdoll out from behind the car after you hit him, and puts him down, doesn't slam him, doesn't run away with him, turns around and puts him on the ground next to your car. You then get out of the car, they both get in and go to drive away, before Yokai shoots once, and stops, and you begin shooting fully automatic into the back window, again. Now, you want to lie and say I showed you clips that only shows you chasing them, and then them dying. Well, I have the clips, genius. The first clip shows plenty of time before the shooting, 54 seconds before the shooting and the seconds right after the shooting. The second clip shows that you ran over your "ally", that you tried to mag dump the car again, and that you are the one that wanted to kill them. First clip showing the complete lack of any knowledge of escalation when shooting that began. Second clip of you continuing a conflict that was never started and RDMing them. After this happened, they made a ticket for RDM after you had been trying to VDM them for almost 20 minutes. When this ticket came up, there was three staff members online. Myself, Bullets, and Nubs. Here in logs you can see I tried to get either of them to take it. Nubs was afk and I even char kicked Bullets twice just for him to ignore it. So yes, I took the ticket as the only active staff member. While taking your ticket, I was relaying all information to the only other active on Discord UA member for their input as I knew you would try and cry bias. I was transparent and I told you this in the sit but you clearly want to leave out key pieces of information. The other UA member had already also determined it to be RDM. When I brought the two of you, Yokai had little to no history of RDM at all. (Yokai's notes) That is why he was simply going to be noted and returned. Both you and Patch had asked for him to not be noted. So his note was removed and him returned. Now for you to try and turn that on me as targeting you must be some kind of joke. You were not noted and returned because you have a college textbook of POs for VDM, RDM, revenge RDM and metagame.(Your POs, POs, and bans. See how his is a single screenshot and yours has to be three?) Once Yokai was returned, you and Patch were making the sit completely inefficient with just trying to annoy each other. So Patch was comped and returned. Then it was just the two of us for almost thirty minutes where I tried to reason with you. Tell me, how does it take thirty minutes for me to say, Because that is not all that was said. In this sit, you yourself admitted that you started shooting at the end of the first clip. That you killed them in the second clip. That the conflict had ended at the casino almost an hour earlier. In the time that it was just the two of us in that sit room, i explained to you why I couldn't just note you and return you. You refuse to learn, you refuse to stop breaking the rules. I asked you to do one thing before you put up this appeal so that I could have a reason to be nice to you in this appeal. Instead, you choose to not do that, lie about the information you had on the situation, lie about why you were doing it, and no lie and try to slander my name in your appeal. If any other person had the history of notes and bans that you have, they would have been permanently banned. I worked with another member of UA and tried to be extra nice to you.

Before I inform the entire community of all of the holes, missing context, and lies you have told in the rest of your appeal, I will simply ask if you did the one thing I asked you to do before I banned you. First, did you watch the video that I sent to you over Discord DMs that explains how to properly escalate and what an active threat is? Second, if you did, please tell me how you properly escalate because you still claim to have properly escalated in this conflict.

While jmoorsey may admit fault for not checking into the situation further, he was still correct in allowing the orders. You are not granted or guaranteed any prior warning by faction leadership if you are to break the rules of the family. You not only broke their rules, you also accessed illegal items from their racket checking another box for them to have your death ordered granted they had a valid reason. Any faction in the server, can happily order your death if your actions directly bring law enforcement into their properties. In the future, while a new member of a faction, you will do well to ensure to don't ruffle any feathers, piss off any cops, or deny orders from anyone that at least appears important. 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.

While you may not have initiated, you did join your faction in attacking him once he decided to defend himself. At that point you are involved in the mugging and are eligible to be PK'd. 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.

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.

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

Hi, staff member that took your flags here. I was made aware of the situation after other staff had reported it in staff chat. When I went to check your logs, I seen you had placed the props down in the same places multiples time repeatedly right after they had been removed by others doing the /mes to remove them. Reminder, you were doing this while mic spamming. You were using the props to further assist in your minging, thus they were removed for prop minge. You already had them removed before, you've already been told and given chances to use them responsibly. You continue to fail to show you have the ability to not abuse the flags, so they were removed from you again and I will be advocating they stay removed for an extended period this time, hopefully you will finally learn they are a privilege to be used responsibly, not a right. This is not a dark rp server. For other staff to check if they wish too as well, these are the last three you placed, last was across the street. You had at least two others just on your first pages of logs across the street with the others. Also note, the time between was way too short for actual RP as you want to argue. https://ibb.co/hBGWZx6 https://ibb.co/HgmpV3z https://ibb.co/3rStCVN

What in the shit post

Again, it was multiple times, you also came all the way down the road from where the pharmacy was to the where the manhole was. At least twice. Even in the cooper that is plenty of time to stop. When you see a group of people in the road, that's not an excuse to purposely hit them all. It was not just picking up a body a couple of times as well. You actively were not allowing the cops to do their RP and were inciting others to keep getting involved and encouraging others to mess with the body as well. I am not the only staff that witnessed this and multiple other staff had called you out for it as well.

Hi, banning admin here! First off, your ban was only partially for the RDM. The majority of your ban was two other things most of all. The first part of if it was you at least twice in the time I was spectating the scene, ran your cooper through multiple people. The first time it happened is what led to Z67H being ragdoll abused all the way down to the ice. The other player involved was warned for it as they had no history, but your multiple VDMs is what caused it to happen. Secondly, it was the constant minging and NITRP that came with you purposely forcing yourself into a situation you were not involved in and moving the body / keeping officers from chalking the body as they were fearing for their life after you RDMd Darnell. While you may be able to forgive Sosa for his RDM to get him unbanned, I will not be forgiving you for the multiple VDMs and the minging. You have an extensive history of NITRP and I am hoping this time away will teach you to betetr respect the RP in the server and especially the RP of others.

When you were told you were being banned for the RDM, your response was to also report him. You reported him, he faced his consequences. If you are saying you forgive him, sure overturn it I guess. His argument of saying it wasn't reported doesn't hold up as you did report him though and provided me the clip when you did report him.

Hi, banning admin here! Z67H had reported the issue on the ice, then he also had brought up the clown shooting cops. When I brought the clown in question, he had reported that you had also RDMd him and provided me with the clip of you revenge RDMing him after he had already died and so had you. The clip can be found here. You say the clown was okay with it, but he did report you for the RDM and Z67H had reported the clowns RDM on you guys.

Post it with the proper format to have it reviewed. Your appeal has been reviewed and denied.

Due to all of this beginning with a fail mug, this is not how this scenario should of played out. It should of been handled by staff after a report was made. Now, with that being said, this whole situation will be voided. The terms of that being though this character will be removed from the faction, all IC knowledge you had of the faction is voided, and there can be no retaliation on your part against the faction (targeting, snitching, etc). If you are caught breaking any of these terms, there will be severe consequences. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hi there flag removing adman here! Your flags were removed for prop pushing at the time and you had a previous note for it. I can't seem to find the clip from how long ago it was. I would feel fine returning your pet flags.
