August von Blüme - PK Appeal

[markercereal]

 

Character's name & rank: 

August von Blüme

 

SteamID32: 

76561199512389617

 

Staff member who issued the PK (if you know): 

I don't recall the Staff Member's name.

 

Explain why you were PK'd: 

 

I was walking during a Coup De’tat, Officers asked me for my ID. 

I didn't want to expose my identity, so i attempted to run away in order to avoid getting in jail for my firearms.

I managed to get onto the sewers, however i was shot dead on the ladder whilst climbing down.

 

 

 

Why should you be un-PK'd?: 

 

I worked hard and put depth into my character such as negative & positive traits, as i was also persuading creating a resistance group.

I had a large sum of money there, which i worked hard to achieve, and i'd hate to lose my progress & my current diplomatic situation with other characters.

 

Additional Information: 

 

I'm a but unfamiliar with the rules, since i've lately started playing the server and wasn't introduced to the rules properly.

I wasn't aware at the time that i'd be PKed.

The situation was fully within the PK guidelines, you were under gunpoint, and had the decision to either run ( and risk your characters life ) or be detained . You decided to run which is why i made the decision to PK your character. However i am not against giving you a second chance only if you read over the rules at your soonest convenience.

man i wasnt even wary that was going to happen, nor could’ve i understood whatever PK was until you told me.

I really dont wanna lose my progress, you cut me off just when i hit like 200K

@fidelI apologise, I have read the PK-Guidelines and now take in note that in the encounter, i would've been PKed.

I have reviewed the footage and next time i'll be more wary towards my character.

Next-time, I will conjugate my decision.

Sorry.

+1 He is a new player and deserves a second chance.

The precedence that just because you weren't aware of the PK guidelines doesn't make you exempt has been set so many times. This is part of the game. You violated fearrp and therefore you should be PK'd for it—regardless if you didn't know you violated the guidelines or not.

Accepted.

From reviewing the clip provided August von Blüme was not officially placed under gunpoint / fear RP until 00:34 in the clip and then he was shot at 00:36 therefore giving two seconds to actually respond to fear RP.

As stated in General Rule two: You must have a valid RP reason to kill someone. You may shoot someone if they damage you with a weapon/vehicle. You may not shoot someone because of their physical appearance, faction or simply because they insulted you. You must give someone a verbal or text warning and allow them 10 seconds to respond before escalating the roleplay. Following this warning, you may kill them if they pull out a weapon. Do not bait someone to shoot/RDM you, and do not punch minge or initiate arguments to harass someone.

In this clip provided again August von Blüme was officially under fear rp for two seconds as a group of people chasing someone and telling someone to stop does not mean they are under fear RP until a weapon is pointed at them.

There also was no attempt to make an arrest when it could have easily been done as the Feld just resorted to gunning him down.
