Klaus Rieger PK Appeal

[Wojtek]

Character's name & rank: Gefreiter Klaus Rieger

SteamID (STEAM_0:X:XXX): 76561199014292349

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

Explain why you were PK'd: I Parked my car in the city while nudging the car next to me, when 3 police officers approached me asking why I had crashed into the car. I said I had barley hit it and would pay for a repair if it was their car. The lead officer ignoring what I had just said told me to put away my gun that was on safety and began counting from 5. I tried reasoning with him but he just finished the count and killed me. Shortly after I respawned  I was taken to the character select screen and told my character was banned.

Why should you be un-PK'd?: I feel like the escalation of force was unnecessary and the situation could've been resolved Differently. Along with being a member of the MP which I thought would allow the law enforcement officers to give me the benefit of the doubt, and try to have a conversation before resorting to violence.

Hello, I was the admin who PKed you.

In the clip I reviewed, three officers attempted to detain you and put you in cuffs. You then pulled out a gun on safety and started walking away from them. The officers gave you multiple warnings to stop moving and put your gun down. They had their guns pointed at you, meaning you were under FearRP. You failed to fear for your life and follow their orders, so they shot and killed you for FearRP.

You also left the game immediately after being killed, before you were even PKed.

I also noticed you said, “You have a weapon out.” However, you only pulled your weapon out when the officers attempted to detain you, not before the encounter. You must be actively holding a weapon in your hand before the encounter begins for that argument to apply. 

FearRP Rule 8:

If you are actively holding a weapon in your hand, FearRP does not apply, and you may retaliate (even if it is on safety, E+R)

FearRP Rule 1:
While under FearRP you are required to oblige by the commands of your captor. If you attempt to escape or pull out a weapon to fight back but are killed that would then display a disregard for your own safety. This is a calculated risk you took, or a denial to value your own life, which will result in your PK.
