Acqwon Matthews PK Appeal

[Acqwon Matthews]

Name of Character: Acqwon "LA" Matthews

SteamID: STEAM_0:0:155537071

Your Discord ID#: 592873246496522250

Date of PK: 07/28/2025

Reason for PK: I was killed during a PK by Detective Martin Riggs for killing a target and he claims I shot him in the crossfire.

Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?:

1. Martin Riggs "The person who killed me" used OOC terminology In character. (Clip1) 

■ Using OOC means of communication to perform a PK will invalidate it / the evidence for a PK.

■ Using OOC terms over Mic, (Such as yelling "thats a pk, thats a pk!" After killing someone) may void the PK entirely. Remain in character at all times.

2. I was told by a faction member that detectives are not allowed to PK somebody while not in uniform and that Canadian voided a PK due to that.

3. Martin Riggs claims I shot him in the crossfire, I have a clip that shows otherwise. He shot me while i was unarmed. I never harmed Martin Riggs, my gun was already concealed and he had to take his weapon off safety to even shoot which is all heard on the video. (Clip2) 

■ 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.

4. A staff member by the name of Toast told us the PK was active beforehand and the reason it made it to this point is because he didn't check a screenshot before giving the green light and when I acted on it there was no PK. I have in the clip mentioned everything from when Toast gave us the go ahead to when the target was killed and no PK body was there. (Clip3)

If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines:

"For the laughs does anyone have a clip of that" From Cop after PK BTW

[Drunken]

So i was the PK'ing cop, i asked for a clip after the PK cause i didnt have one. What is not mentioned is after the PK itself, we go over to the Colombo gun store when LogicNova proceeds to scream at us with OOC stuff saying its toasts fault. Additionally after you were killed from the short bit in the clip you was still radioing your faction was to the PK. The reason for the original attempt being invalid was due to the PK order/ screenshot not being correct, this was told to Logic by toast in a staff sit, it would of been logic's job to pass that information on to the other people he was working with. And in terms of the argument that i broke ROE of sorts, you just gunned a man down infront of my eyes. Tennessee V Gardner takes effect which means i can shoot you.

 

In my opinion @Acqwon Matthewsits just a case of really bad timing and placement for you mate. No hard feelings against u. But Logic needs to grow up and stop crying.

[Drunken]

Sorry to go on, the argument of a detective in uniform is pointless. Whoever told u that needs to learn to read. We can PK you unless we are undercover or off duty. Those are the only two situations where we cant PK you.

This is not the place if you want to help on his PK appeal. Your acting tough for someone who has cried because you we're getting a felony.

[Toast]

I am the member of staff that oversaw both PKs. The Colombo one & yours.

 

First of all, when I took the Colombo PK, I didn't check the screenshot properly. I glanced over it, saw the PK reason, and logged it. When I logged the PK, I noticed that whoever took the screenshot didn’t include the F3 of the person giving the orders, which is required. I then disabled the PK status of the guy involved in the Colombo hit, pulled one of your guys into a sit to tell him to redo your orders, and he radioed them in. As he did, Acqwon killed the guy who was awaiting orders.

I then set the guy active again after receiving a proper screenshot of the orders. You found him at the park and gunned him down instantly, while Detective Martin Riggs was in the area. He then gunned you down right after. Maybe you should consider doing a safer mob hit and not killing people in front of cops in the future. I spoke to UA, who said I was okay to approve the PK on Acqwon.

[Acqwon Matthews]

In the video, there is nothing coming over radio saying orders weren't approved, if you watched the video you'd see that. I took your word specifically saying he is active which is in the clip and acted accordingly. Since when were cops supposed to shoot a man for having an altercation?

There was no attempt to arrest, nor did I harm the man in any way shape or form which is also in the clip.

 

Maybe in the future you shouldn't give active orders without taking the proper steps beforehand...

This screenshot is right when I pulled Logic to tell him the hit was off until the screenshot was rectified. They told you and the like four others in the room to change to the frequency they were going to use to communicate during the hit. If you weren’t on it, then that is your problem, not mine.

Im guessing i was either not on the right frequency or my radio was bugged ngl 

[Acqwon Matthews]

That is not my fault, in the video you can hear and see me change my frequency to the correct one as I'm being told. The guy you are saying you pulled is telling you he had a problem. Instead of trying to cover your tracks on everything, do your job the way it was intended and actually review the evidence I am handing to you in this forum.

[Ashen Soul]

The fact that the admin messed up the hit in the first place is an issue within itself. For detective Riggs to then break character and ask for a clip in a clearly OOC conversation while standing on top of the body is a clear violation of using OOC terms after a PK. There should be no discussion that this has been broken and Acqwon Matthews should have his PK reversed immediately.
