PK appeal

[plubo]

Name of Character: Tommy Luciano

SteamID: STEAM_0:0:43717080

Your Discord ID#: 329254222463893514

Date of PK: 1/21/2025

Reason for PK: Unsure, but I was brought into the family's office after I was punching my friend for a bet that we made that he didn't pay, I also had an incident with one of the daughters (Tollia) when I accidentally knocked her out with my car when she was in the middle of the road and my game dropped from 60 to 15 frames. I couldn't control my car and repeatedly apologized for not being able to control my vehicle. 

Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: Not sure, I read through all the rules and I'm not sure which one I may have broken in order for my character to be PK'd. I'm thinking the reason could be that me and my friend (Dandy Cral) were fighting on the sidewalk after he broke our bet. It was just friendly banter but It didn't seem to a huge deal as I was removed from the faction on good terms and I obeyed their requests as I left their restaurant.

they probably baited you into doing some stupid shit so they can tell the admins "he punched a member" to get you pked i mean that what comes with the mafia life that you agreed to, your life is at your dons hand if he or she wants you out of there your out of there

Sounds like you got used as Bones brother. The little prompt you accepted at the start says you can be PK'd at any time, Thats why you pick and choose the factions you join, and you try not to do anything that'd irritate em

Users who are not involved replying as if they understand the context of the PK, according to the PK log you were killed in a violent confrontation with police. The admin that handled the ticket will reply to this thread with the clip and other information.

Hey there PKing staff. You were offline at the time of the PK, but the incident stems from a clip I received from an officer. Where you clearly and intentionally run over the cop, as they are attempting to arrest someone ( possibly your friend. ) You then fake like you're going to pull over, before speeding off at gunpoint to the cop, who was attempting to door kick and arrest you. Given the interference with the arrest and the violent confrontation stemming from your use of your car as a weapon, to interfere in said arrest- causing harm to the officer. I ruled this VCWP or initiating a violent confrontation with police. 

You can see said clip here: https://medal.tv/games/garrys-mod/clips/jxq8iihZbPG1XSjW-/fJIrL6vJVWOC?invite=cr-MSx1RTgsOTEzNDExODYs

1. Initiating a shootout or violent confrontation with Police can lead to a PK. Killing or attacking an Officer after initiating a violent confrontation leaves you PK active from officers for about 15 minutes. Generally we want people to not immediately go for the gun when dealing with Police, as a result if you escalate a situation to a shootout and lose you can be punished via PK as your character was killed. This does not apply if it is the Police that fired first or escalated to a shootout.

Further, I'd like to state. You were given a chance to comply and given the circumstance, the entire scenario, gave a great impression you were baiting the reaction from the officer. Given the officer, attempted to arrest you first, you did the classic pull over and drive away when they got close. Given the potential cop bait, the stopped car, and a gun actively drawn on you, you chose to flee. I believe this shows a blatant disregard for your characters life and you were pked as such.

The clip is pretty cut and dry, A car can be used as adeadly weapon the same as a gun, you running a cop over and him not dying was lucky for him, not so much for you. As the rules state if you initiate a violent interaction with an officer you can be subject to pk from the officers for 15 minutes. The full rule stated in the post above. 

For these reasons I don't see any reason to accept this appeal. However thank you for making the time to appeal.
