Denied. After a review of this appeal, the evidence provided, and your responses, this appeal is denied for the following reasons: 1. You Cannot Mug or Kidnap General Ranking Officers This is clearly outlined in the server rules: General Rule 26: You can not mug or kidnap General Ranking Officers as these individuals command fear, respect, and would realistically have guards. The person you mugged was the Minister of Labour and he is classed as a "General Ranking Officer". I do appreciate that you acknowledged this rule break in your appeal, taking responsibility for that part was a good first step. However, the rest of the appeal fails to show the same level of accountability. 2. Pretending To Be AFK is FailRP In the clip you provided, you sat down during an active arrest and failed to respond whilst you were clearly there, which is pretending to be AFK and while sitting, you cannot be tied up due to game mechanics which is why you did this to avoid getting arrested and this is just FailRP. The arresting officers then shot you so you would respawn, which would reset you and allow for the RP to continue with you standing, and able to be tied. This was a logical and justified response by them. 3. You Disconnected Immediately After Respawning (LTARP) Server logs clearly show that you disconnected by user about 5 seconds after being killed, not a timeout, not a crash. if your game had truly "crashed" the logs would indicate a connection timeout or error. This is a textbook example of leaving to avoid roleplay (LTARP), especially considering that it happened while you were actively being arrested. 4. Going To Your Spawn Point Is Not Metgaming It's completely normal during conflict scenarios (like a civil war or an arrest) for players to continue pursuing you after shooting you, including going to known spawn points. This is not metagaming, and it happens regularly during civil wars or even basic arrests. There's no rule violation here. 5. Deflecting Blame Doesn't Strengthen Your Case You continously pointed out other's behavior, accusing them of using OOC terms or metagaming, but this appeal is about your conduct, not theirs. Deflecting attention from your own rulebreaks instead of taking ownership, is not going to help you get your appeal accepted. 6. Missed Opportunity for Accountability This appeal could have been accepted if you had simply taken full accountability, apologised sincerely, and stopped trying to dispute each detail. But instead, you've attempted to challenge nearly every aspect of a situation that is well documented by the server logs and supported by your own clips that show that you're clearly in the wrong here. I'd recommend using the remaining time on your ban to review the rules carefully and reflect on your approach to roleplay.

Your Name: Dieter SteamID: 76561198253579610 Appeal Type (Apology or Dispute): both Which staff member banned you?: Patrick Ting How long is your ban for?: 5 days Why were you banned?: Ltarp, failrp Why do you deserve to be unbanned?: So to start off i would say sorry because I believe I did break a rule of tying up someone of a higher rank, that being said the person I tied up was prop glitching to get on top of the ores where they couldnt be touched two wrongs dont make a right. That being said after tying this person who was in the ministry of labor I beleive they proceeded to use OOC to say "shut down the warehouse." where ore could be sold. I proceeded to make it there and then to the bank where an attempt for my arrest was made. I complied and turned around and had a firearm on me and as I was being tied one of the officers shot me. This happened quickly but in RP. ( I never fired my weapon or anything." I then proceeded to sit int he train station and the people arresting me came immediately to me which I believe is failrp as they would have no idea where I would be not given the knowledge of the spawn-point. They then proceeded to talk about calling admins and such for a pk, but shot me and killed me again. After this I re spawned in and was arrested and transported to the ICC where they then again talked about PKing me in game. I was blindfolded and an admin came (patrick) and I asked to be taken to a sit, my comp disconnected and I messaged him on discord I would be back within 2 mins. I loaded back in and was abnned for Ltarp, fail rp, and ltap during a sit and was not given the chance to explain in game as the admin said I could just appeal here. Very unfortunate I got disconnected but I am not sure how this was taken as a legit RP scenario when I was killed in RP multiple times and was being spawn camped 2x after the fact for a rp scenario that transpired 20 mins before hand by the time I was taken to the ICC. I was also banned for PO's but have none to my knowledge and have been on the server for quite some time. (besides maybe a flag offense for flying machines). Thanks for hearing me out!

I literally don't know. I am telling the truth. I just died, respawned and I was getting arrested.
