PK appeal - Rudolph von Lorenberg

[Joverwatch]

Character's name & rank:

Oberstleutnant Rudolph von Lorenberg

SteamID (STEAM_0:X:XXX):  

76561198282455398

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

Browniemeister

Explain why you were PK'd:

My character was PK'd under a 'Dirt PK'

Why should you be un-PK'd?: 

I was apparently PK'd under the circumstances for Dirt, I felt as if the PK was not used as a last resort as stated in the guidelines as I was not aware of the reasoning that resulted in my death. Though my character has not been perfect, I believe I have done nothing against the individual that would constitute PK on my character. I much further believe the use of the court system, or some other means would have been far more effective as it would have proven to be more conclusive to the RP environment. I feel like more could have gone forward whether that was working with the MGD to obtain more information, or even with the NSB, however this felt rather more less provoked, especially as I have been in locked in cells nearly everyday for the last month and I have kept my mouth shut.

I am more than happy to provide any statements, investigations or documents I've made in LARP to UA (I don't want to call out the individual who PK'd me or the investigations incase of metagaming) but I think this was used a easy out and/or done because someone holds a grudge against me personally. If I was Unpk'd I believe that this could have turned into a bit of a interesting situation, rather than a death which feels unjust.

I am obviously a bit deflated losing Rudolph as it is the farthest position I've got since joining (President of the First Chamber) and I've made alot of progress and memories on that character, I would like to continue the story, explore new avenues of RP and continue with court larp as I started to really enjoy different aspects of the gamemode, whether that was trialing grenadiers, working with the generalmajor, working with the state and prime minister, or working with the intelligence agencies.

 

I understand it is sometimes difficult to resume RP after a character is PK'd, but I think even classifying it as a temporary PK could be more conclusive and a bit more fun.

Thank you for taking the time to read my appeal!

 

Additional Information: 

[Browniemeister]

You were PK'ed under guideline of Dirt. 

Your argument's lynchpin is based on the fact that the matter is not last resort. In regards to that, Last Resort doesn't mean a checklist that we as UA go down everytime someone tries to apply for a PK. Court does not always need to apply in PK's. What we moreso look at is if there's causation and correlation. 

Causation is applied in the case of there is multiple instances of effort by the requesting party, which was done.

Correlation is applied where there are connections between you ratting and you putting the requesting party in danger. 

I understand you are upset that you are dead and that you could've done more, but that is the gameplay loop. You play the game and you sometimes die. I wish you the best in your future efforts.
