Alright banning admin here, so heres my side and what happened. I got a report about your friend like 20 mins earlier so I had been watching him on and off when this whole situation happened. your clip shows the situation pretty well and is about the same length as mine, but if any higher staff wants to see it i can provide as it dose include the names for everyone nearby .
1- vdm- you see him there at the dealership while you drive and just kill him, that looked pretty intentional to me and you do admit that which is nice.
2-metagame- not included in the ban but your in a call the whole time, you can hear it in your clip. it dose not matter if you are "nearby" or in your "faction vc" using ooc communication while in char is metagame."Any 3rd party Voice / VOIP program is considered OOC while in the server. In order for you to communicate with other players you must use in game chat or voice functions, we added radios for this exact reason. Coordinating anything IC in a third party voice program is metagaming and will lead to a ban and/or a void of an RP situation."
3-failmug-"You may not mug in a public place, you can, however, pull a weapon on them and bring them to a secluded area to rob them (This can only be done when there is no one else around. EXAMPLE: The victim is alone at night in the middle of an empty street. You initiate a mugging with your firearm and take them to an alleyway so no one stumbles upon the crime. You may not perform the mugging in the street, which is a public area.)"
you rob him in the middle of the sidewalk the closest spot is maybe 100 ft away at the jump up past the fence, not sure what you mean by "I have also included the map of where I can mug and stuff like that I was literally 2meters away from the red line and I thought I was in it or at least very close to it." as you can see the road on the map and its overall pretty clear.
4- priors- rdm in sept rdm april 26 and "rdm ban on next" from Wednesday, aka the same day a couple hours earlier. so i think this is more than fair and i object to having it shortened. why should you be exempt due to faction activities, read the rules and learn from it.
even if it were to be extended due to the metagame i would say its justified.
