[biclighter]

Your Character or Steam Name: Bic

Your SteamID: STEAM_0:0:424709755

Your Discord ID#: bic.lighter

Reason for ban: RDM

Length of ban: 5 Days

Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): both tbh

Why should you be unbanned?:

I was under the impression that someone pointing a gun at you is means to shoot the person, but seemingly not in this situation. The guy in the clip claimed I was following him at first, which he said as I was literally walking away (not only that but you can see him walking around for a whole minute while I was tabbed out). After he said that, I was planning to go up to him and whisper something random but he pulled the gun almost immediately. If he would have said something like "get away or im gonna kill you" or some valid threat, I would have just walked away. The only reason I shot was because I thought he would shoot first (guy seems like a minge to me). He made an in game ticket and I tried to explain that he pointed a gun at me, which I thought at the time is a valid reason to shoot back, but Velocity said it was RDM baiting (something I've never done nor do I tolerate). I could see how he would think that, and I don't think his reasoning was bad either. On his side of things, I rdm'd the same guy a bit earlier before the ban bc he was saying some very disrespectful shit to me and people I know. This led to me making the mistake of shooting him for no RP reason. I don't have many recent RDM PO's (only a 2 or 3 in the past eight months) reflected by the short ban I received.

I would like to apologize for crashing out on this guy during my first interaction with him, it was unwarranted and out of the ordinary compared to my normal behavior. I should've left this guy alone but I really thought he was up to no good/minge-ing.

My reasoning for making this appeal is to see what other people think of my second interaction with him and see if it really was RDM.

This guy is a legit player with a good history of just having fun. If anything was done wrong, it was a simple mistake. This guy takes the RP seriously. I don't vouch for a whole lot of people. But he IS one of them. The situation makes sence and I'd recommend giving him a chance. It is not a pattern.
