There was mishap when reading logs, Banning staff has informed UA and the ban will be removed from your account entirely. Your ban appeal has been reviewed and accepted. The ban will be lifted from your account shortly. If it was deemed an invalid ban, it will also be removed from your record.

Hello! As already explained by the PK'ing admin, you were PK'd for not valuing your life in an RP scenario which lead to your death. While you may try and argue you didn't intend to drown yourself, everything else points to this is the direct consequence of your actions. You got into a pursuit. You jumped in the water to try and flee, you decided to go far under water. You put yourself in a scenario to drown and die. Swimming is a very common and known thing people do to try and avoid cops. You can't be easily cuffed, tased, interacted with any way. If they do manage to tase you, you sink. If they manage to cuff you, good luck getting you to actually be draggable. You attempted to partake in the same behavior and it backfired. 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 explained by the PK'ing admin you were PK'd for LTARPing a PK active situation. Any time you raid a property, lockpick in, you become PK active while raiding and for 15 minutes after you have left the scenario. In this case, you guys had left while still actively involved in the raid as confirmed by logs. While you meant to do it or not and whether you knew it was a PK active scenario or not does not matter. We practice ignorance of the rules does not make you immune to the rules. I recommend you review the rules around PKs and mugging / raiding before you partake in any activities of the sort that can lead to 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.

Hello! As already explained by the PK'ing admin, you were killed via Don's orders. While there are some restrictions on them Don's can mostly order deaths as seen fit. In your instance, whether you were planning a coup or not, other made men (trusted members of the faction) and your Don had reason to believe you were orchestrating one or partaking in one. This suspicion can be enough to order your death. With everything we have seen, we couldn't find proof of an ulterior motive to these orders at least not damning enough to void your death and all RP that stemmed from it. 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 explained by ZOOMER your PK was from Don's orders and from the issuing Don they explained your actions during a sit down is what led to your inevitable death. We discussed in your ticket the situation more and you had admitted to pulling the gun. They may have stretched the reason you pulled the gun but they still saw you pulling a gun enough of a rule break to warrant your death. Beyond that, your argument that you committed no crimes on that character really doesn't hold water in this context. That rule is mostly for new members / associates in most factions. In this case, you were seen as a made man and as shown by screenshots you were acting even beyond that capacity within your alliance discord. 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 explained by Yugi, you were PK'd for your death while involved with a hit. While you were not one of the initial hitmen, you involved your self once you acted in defense of the hitmen while knowing it was an active hit. You had arranged the hit to be done by your guys but being requested by another faction. This death was also a valid death while being PK active following your involvement in a hit. A second cause for 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.

Hello! We were able to review this PK and look more closely into logs and confirm you were not the one that shot the cop. The rapid devolvement of the situation and multiple deaths in quick succession caused some confusion! Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! I can't speak fully on your first note as I was not the staff involved but I was the one involved in your second offense and the one that took your flags. I will say it's strange that you say now that you forgot to do it. In our sit you proclaimed to not have known which is when I had to explain to you ignorance of the rules does not make you exempt from them. The reason I took your flags is due to the proximity in time to your first warning. The short time between the first and second warning showed me you had a consistent history of abusing your flags instead of following the rules around them. But yes, I took your flags due to you putting up multiple signs that you had no "/me"'s for and that you could not have realistically reached in RP. This is what lead to PET abuse / fail rp with props.

Hello! In the time that this appeal was being reviewed, player has deleted the character and has began a new life following the same RP. This character is no longer retrievable. Good luck on your new char! Your appeal has been reviewed and denied. You may not re-appeal this PK.

Hello! As explained by Ace and what appears to be understood by you, you were PK'd for char abuse / metagame. A PK of the benefiting char and a ban for the player is the normal action taken in these instances. While reviewing your appeal and your player history, myself and other UA recognize that you are a long time player but with a low playtime. Due to this and your apparent sincerity, we deemed this to be a case of ignorance versus malicious intent. With that being said, we will be reinstating your character. However, it must be recognized that this a case of us granting grace, not a matter of the PK being invalid. Because of this, you are using your one chance. If you caught are performing similar behavior the PK will not be appealed and your ban will be more severe. Welcome back to the server. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! Crimson already explained clearly why you were banned and you admitted to it so we don't have to rehash that. I will just clarify this rule for you. You in fact did LTARP. You were well aware what you were doing was illegal. A cop began to speak to you. You acknowledge yourself that is the reason you chose to leave. That is the definition of Leaving To Avoid RP. 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! As explained by Ace you were banned for your poor attempt at Mass VDM. She also clarified to you that on our server, as also stated in the rules, the player does not have to die for it to be VDM. Your clearly malicious intent was to kill people in mass with your vehicle which is VDM. Just because you're a failure doesn't mean you didn't break the rules. 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! As explained by Lunar you were PK'd for VCWP! This tends to happen when you try to MRDRM them from a rooftop. While investigating your case I looked into Lunar's logs to verify how he explained how it happened. And a few things are confirmed. He was not on the server when the ticket was originally made, he told the server as a whole to remake any PK tickets when he did connect as no admins were on that could take your PK as the only other admin online had been involved in your killing, and he was handling your PK ticket the same time another staff member was handling your RDM ticket. After taking your PK ticket he went straight from his staff char to his cop char. At which point yes he saw you had the same name as the character who was just PK'd. He should have informed you on his staff char but he opted to do it on his cop char as that was also the one involved in the paperwork to changes a cop char's name. 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! So, as already explained by Calink your PK was the result of a VCWP. You decided to shoot a cop, tried to run in that same moment, and failed miserably before being killed for your own actions. Let us go through why it will be standing as is. You bring up Howie's Pk appeal which I also reviewed. If you think your two situations are remotely similar you are delusional. He didn't kill a cop. He shot one when missing someone else, immediately put his weapon away and was attempting to apologize when he was executed by a probie. You executed a cop then were killed while trying to flee the scene in the same interaction. You keep bringing up this argument of "Oh the situation was over". No, it wasn't. You had just shot and killed an officer triggering your PK active time. In that same moment that you try to drive away the killing officer shoots you. You still attempt to flee instead of deescalate the situation at which point you wreck and then the officer finishes the violent confrontation. Just because you turn around doesn't mean you void the confrontation that just happened and does not void your PK active timer. You killed a cop and then failed to flee and died as a result of it. 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 by Winchester you were killed for initiating a VCWP with police and that will be standing but let's get into the whj and your arguments against it. First, you state that because one officer is breaking NLR then it is all invalidated which is simply not true. He did not have the other officers respond, he didn't initiate the first contact with you after returning to the area. You began that interaction with him when you decided to RDM an officer that was allowing you to leave the area. When you start another VCWP with multiple officers around you brought that on yourself. Stop trying to push that blame to others when you made that decision and got clapped for it. Second, you want to argue the NLR break which as already stated is minor in light of your actions. You RDM'd an officer after breaking character to distract him so you could kill him. You pulled a bitch move and got bitched for it by another officer not involved in the NLR situation. 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 with any former UCs PK, we had to be sure all the info obtained to pursue you was valid. No metagame, no OOC obtainments, etc. In your case, your former faction's High Command presented us with the evidence they had and it did not suffice. I want to make clear to everyone - photos that are not obtained in RP (with a camera, a slash me to show using the camera, and the player with their ID showing) is not valid IC evidence. Especially when only proof is given of it being shared over Discord. Furthermore, I encourage all factions to properly record their IC interactions with others when they are obtaining sensitive info such as the identity of a potential UC. Due to your former faction being unable to reach the bar of evidence that UA is comfortable with accepting in cases such as yours, your character will be restored. To make clear, the faction previously involved in trying to kill you now has no knowledge of you and your past life. The same goes for you and your knowledge of them. It's as if the two of you have never met. If this line in the sand is broken by either side, those involved will be given a Diverge rehab retreat. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! While reviewing your PK there were two main things we were looking into. The first being how the information of your new identity was obtained. While we found no signs of malice and it was obtained validly IC, there were too many questions raised about potential conflict of interests that we had to choose to be cautious in rule that in your favor. Secondly, we had too look into who actually killed you. Rules have had to extra clarified to show that UA thinks doing hits on low risk characters "is gay." This is not behavior we wish to promote so when it was made clear a char with no value to the player did the hit, we also ruled that in your favor. To make clear, the faction previously involved in trying to kill you now has no knowledge of you and your past life. The same goes for you and your knowledge of them. It's as if the two of you have never met. If this line in the sand is broken by either side, those involved will be given a Diverge rehab retreat. Your appeal has been reviewed and accepted. Your character has been reinstated and can be used again.

Hello! While you claim that the cops shot at your vehicle, there is clip to support this claim and logs do not support it either. Your only damage logs leading up to your death are you taking damage from the world. This is caused by things such as drug withdrawals, hunger, or physics collisions! Due to there being a lack of evidence that shows the officers starting the violent confrontation, we will be denying this appeal. 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! 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.
