im lapo The gentleman that i murked was threatening another member of the public in the bank with a kar98k upon my entrance. I evaluated the threat and determined the threat had to die so i popped him his boys then drew their guns and in turn murked me i then hopped off for the night as i had work in 4 hours. If i would of stayed on i would not of been banned in my opinion as i could of stated the facts of the situation alongside my witnesses. As jakob said i do know better i know what is and isnt allowed ive been playing for years im not here to just merk random people for no reason i enjoy the roleplay i follow the rules as best i can.

Additional Information: Thank you for reviewing my appeal

Hi Larry,

I must reiterate that your actions did indeed violate server rules. While you claim to have evaluated the situation as a threat, the decision to shoot and kill him was not necessary. This was one of many clips I looked through that day, so I am in the process of making contact with the person who reported you to get sent the clip again.

I do not recall the person pointing a gun at people in the bank, or attempting to threaten someone with the Kar98k drawn. I am aware that he had the weapon on his back, and I wouldn't be surprised if he were verbally threatening someone. But that does not instigate that you can kill him on sight because he looks, and seems like a threat. You could have dealt with this in roleplay; like calling for backup or attempting to detain him yourself.

You have past POs going back to 2023. Yes, they are not as recent, but I am sure that in the years you have been here, you know the rules. And yes, if you didn't leave the server right away, you would have had time to explain yourself, which could have made the ban shorter. 

I welcome you back on the 23rd.

Jakob I understand what your saying brother but what I’m saying is it was rp how we handled it as far as I knew it wasn’t even a big deal or else I would not of hopped off for the night 

from my point of view I walked into the bank where members of a temporary little gang were held up they have consistently opened fire on Lapo and nsb with no warning I walked into inside he has a Kar98k to someone’s head I pull out my gun and visual determine me and my men are threatened by him and his boys.

I apologize if this isn’t seen as role play but I was doing what a realistic person in that situation would do I used my use of force properly

when a suspect is threatening the life of the general public it is viable to escalate the use of force to deadly force

I didn’t kill him to be a shit bag or be a prick I did it because I was putting my self in the shoes of my character trying to save an innocent dudes life
