In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.

I was banned previously for swearing out of RP for the second time when I called Reiss a "wanker", I am happy to wait out this ban and let the suspension go forth from there. I am putting this unban in for the in-game aspect of my ban. I was involved in the KET blanket ban that occured on the 25/03/2018, this happened as we had a plan to disrupt Nalurah's wedding with a few other unnamed gangs. Our intentions were for a roleplay attack on the wedding with the other gangs but when we attempted it, it was not organised at all and ended up moving to oreokastro. We then travelled to oreokastro to try the attack again where one of our members was knocked out and then executed infront of us and we opened fire on the gang that executed our member which lead to the RDM of an OG member and more disruption of an RP event. Wilco put on our gang post that I was involed in the saying of "fuck this server and its shit admins" I do not recall at all that these words came out of my mouth, all that was said when GHOSTKILLER was banned was that I was "done with this bullshit" ADDING INFO - So I have gained more knowledge today that I thought was important to add on how this message was misscommunicated and twisted to make me look bad, after Ghostkiller was banned I messaged one of my friends on steam to tell him about the ban and that I was done with this bullshit, my friend then went on to say my message out loud in teamspeak which was heard by another unnamed member of the community, who I think (cannot confirm) has mentioned it in a room with admins in it and has twisted what was actually said, I can confirm that the only thing I said was "I am done with this bullshit" looking at the chat logs I have provided I didnt even say these words, I infact only said, we are done with this, referring to KET as we. This is something I thought was important to say and if the steam conversation is needed I can try and find a way to get it to you. I am not sure who made the report of me saying this but I have no recollection of me ever saying this. These are the written reasons for me being banned that were noted by Wilco on our gang post.

What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?

I have been sitting chatting to my friends on teamspeak and doing college coursework due for over the easter break. I have been playing through the call of duty campaigns. I completed MW and MW2 and am now playing through the black ops one campaign, enjoying singleplayer games more now and appreciating stories and the beauty of video games. Youtube is a big part of my life and I would say I watch it more than TV, just been watching through lots of my subscriptions and catching up on series I used to watch.

Why do you want to return ?

I would like to return to RPUK as it is my original server and I have never really wanted to play anywhere else. The grass is not as green in other places and here suits how I like to play RP servers. RPUK is where I have made my friends throughout my whole time when I got my PC. I have made so many memories in this community from my original time in the NHS when I climbed to the rank of CST, I made long lasting friends there that have sadly left the community but I still keep in contact with a few of them. My friends in the NHS helped me advance onto my rebel life where we made an NHS member based gang AA, we were around for a while creating a good reputation. The longest I spent on RPUK was in NHS and the UNMC. After my NHS friends left I was lost for what to do then I saw the UNMC spring up as a new faction and myself and TomTheDoge joined the ranks. I made a new group of friends who again are not around anymore sadly. I progressed to the rank of SSgt before I was removed and the UNMC disbanded. I love this community and how you can actually RP when you want to. I was looking through my recordings from when I used to record and it really made me want to drop all the guns and just walk around making people laugh and creating unique situations like I used to. Unfortunately I was unable to get to it and now I am banned. I have attempted to do the same in other places before and its just not possible with how other people act in those places. It not even slightly possible to sit back and talk to someone without them spitting on you or shooting you. I am personally one to sit and talk to someone before pulling a gun unless the situation relies on me using lethal force. I have many encounters where I sit with my gun on my back instead of the simple "fuck off or this is going to go south". My play style is just not suited anywhere else and this annoys me. I am wanting to create memories still as the last few weeks maybe even months have not been the same as what I used to do in years before. I have spent nearly 3 years this June and this goes to show I am not interested in moving somewhere else, RPUK is where I learned all my arma 3 experience and its where I would like to continue my days.

Why should we unban you ?

I believe I should be unbanned to allow myself to show what I am here for. It has been said that with my involvement in KET means we are not here for roleplay. My recent weeks I have been caught up in questionable behaviour and this is not what I am about. I want to go back to what my experiences on RPUK used to be like when I was back in the NHS and the UNMC. Where I can sit and talk to someone for near enough half a restart and have a laugh. I want to be the one who doesn't just sit and tell people to put their hands up. I am rarely someone who would initiate anyway. As I stated, RPUK is where I was raised so to say. When I joined back in June 2015 I never expected it to be such a big part of my life and I certainly didn't expect such memories to come from it. I feel disheartened that my time has come to and end like this and certainly didn't want this to happen. I would like to continue my days on RPUK as there is nothing else that interests me in the RP side of this as stated its not the same anywhere else. I have been banned for abuse twice in the last month or so and this is me getting caught up with my bullshit attitude when things irritate me. This ban has been a big reality check in terms of being part of RPUK and I shouldn't have taken it for granted. I messed up...badly. I understand the blanket ban goes for all members but I personally wasn't involved in any VDM or RDM as stated on the gang post nor did I say "fuck this community and its shit admins" I can see that I currently will have a bad view from admins due to my slightly toxic behaviour lately but I can assure that I am not normally like this and I keep getting caught up in an outburst of aggression and stupidity. I would like to improve how I act here as it is only recently I have brought all this attention to myself for being toxic. Simply, RPUK is where I enjoy myself the most and it is where I would like to progress and continue investing my time in.

At this point I have decided not to proceed with any KET unbans as you are active elsewhere, literally copied and pasted your gang post the next day.

so these appeals for anyone listed in the other thread elsewhere will be moved to denied tomorrow.

I have copied and pasted the posts forth to other areas as other players who didnt fancy coming back here wanted to move over there, as I said I went to try it and its not for me, the remainder of KET have went on to play other places but I am yet to even bother as I know I will not want to invest any of my time in these places, since I myself am not going to be active elsewhere I am going to remove these gang posts and if someone else wants them reuploaded they can do it themselves. I am solid and standing my ground that these other places are not for me, their playerbases are just too toxic and not to my RP standards. Also as seen in one certain place, the entirity of KET has went their own path to make their own gang there and I have decided not to follow them as playing with these guys just isnt the group I want to hang around with, It was my first time with these dodgy individuals and it was certainly my last aswell, I never heard any of these peoples backstories apart from their previous gang experience. I was one of few to have been cautious about even letting them in but I was persuaded to give them a chance, my mistake. In short, the rest of KET have went other places to play, I am not interested in wasting my time in these places and decided to branch off and do my own thing, if your decision stays final I shall have to respect that and carry on.

Explain to me about this KET Teamspeak that people here have been invited to?

Please include the calling people names like "snakes" and worse please.

When I got banned from teamspeak James Blezard bought a cheap £1 teamspeak so I could chill in there will my mates rather than be isolated and have nothing to do, it started simply as just a teamspeak we could sit in and play games together and then other members started inviting random people that I had no idea of who they were, literally it started getting more and more populated and other people came from other commmunities, since then james and I have had to start banning people from it as it was never meant to allow so much toxicity in it, I am currently in it and can say that it is just all of us who have been banned and I think the others are sitting playing rust. I'm not sure who was calling who snakes however I do recall someone calling ryker a snake saying he would end up going to staff of rpuk and making up random things to make us look bad. The ts is in no form made for toxic behaviour like I have seen some other members do with their toxic tags and such, but our ts is simply just for us as friend group to sit and play games together, its original intent was for me to get in some sort of voice chat with others after my TS ban.

and worse please.

If possible could you elaborate on what has been said as most of my time in the ts has been spent muted up playing the call of duty campaigns or sitting in a room with either jordan or blezard just sitting on watch2gether.

 

[Wilco]

@KEVINunban tell me about Blezard

 

[KEVINunban]

@KEVINunban tell me about Blezard

Blezard is someone I have been friends with for a very long time and we would be the pair who play most other games together, I will honestly admit he is very very toxic when someone punishes him, for whatever it may be, for an example, when admins have banned him previously he turns extremely toxic towards that person, using words like “retard” “spacker” telling people to “neck” and “kill yourself”, when blezard is left to play games he suprisingly doesnt act like this, he is actually quite a calm and level headed individual when he is in a normal envrionment. This is still no excuse for how he acts when punished, being level headed the majority of the time doesnt excuse him from being toxic when he gets into bother. Since his ban, I know in the early hours of his ban he was very toxic towards rpuk, logging on with toxic names and abusing admins, but since then he really hasnt bothered with much, we will sit in ts on watch2gether watching dude perfext videos and all is calm and he has recently been playing ghost recon wildlands and rust, I dont think its in his interests to play elsewhere like the rest of KET as I haven’t seen him with the others that much, but all in all he is extremely toxic when punished

 

[Wilco]

Now you might be wondering what little James did has to do with your appeal, but you was the apparent leader of "KET" and should be held accountable for their blanket ban as obviously, your leadership wasn't very good.

The fact you consider this waste of space (screenshot below of his little man period after being banned) a friend and still allow him on a teamspeak that people have invited RPUK members to tells me you shouldn't be leading anything let alone be allowed near any of our members in the future, It really says a lot about you as a person also!

Explain to me what went wrong with KET, why you had to turn up a wreck an RP event with guns and why your "Roleplay" was minimal to start off a gun fight on every occasion? Also explain to me why you accepted in alot of people who have been around blanket bans before?

 

[KEVINunban]

I made KET after I left OG as people in OG started to irritate me and I was not enjoying my time in it anymore, before KET I was a leader in OG and thought I could lead a gang myself so decided that would be the path I take. Back in 2016 I made a gang with ex-CMO Marc called [AA] Abandoned Anarchists, This was a gang full of medics and everyone had a good RP background, as Marc was a CMO and myself a CST we managed to attain good attention from all the NHS who ended upjoining us. Turns out its much easier to run a gang and keep it clean when everyone has a good rp background. I am clearly do not pay enough attention when running KET as I didnt manage to see the constant gunfights from other members and the poor RP, I wouldnt say I ran KET as a leader as I tended to act just like a member rather than a leader. For the RP wedding, I remember logging on and hearing about the wedding, in ts I said “imagine there was like a terrorist hold up when everyone was sitting in the church” then I got told that 3 gangs were already planning on it KET being one of them. I thought it would be cool and interesting if it was pulled of properly which its wasnt at all. It was a shambles, no organisation between KET and the two other unnamed gangs. This lead to the wedding moving to oreokastro where I thought we were going to try again, turns out the other two gangs switched their roles and ended up being security for the wedding without letting us know. This led to Porter being executed by Stavik infront of myself and Absence while we were in an ifrit, the our ifrit started taking fire so we jumped out guns blazing, this was classed as RDM. 

I had never ever spoken to the people I had accepted into KET until they actually joined, I was iffy around them as they were all ex trident members and I didnt have a liking for them but I was told by the original members that left OG with me that they were good guys and that I should let them in, this was clearly not the right move. Having a group of people that rarely ever rp unless its robbing its not fun at all. I will not lie there was a few good people in KET myself and luis hernandez did a few RP events with no guns involved, we went to the RBA and asked for a loan for a Moncler and Canada Goose rebel clothing company we were going to start, I do believe Slawek (the negotiator) enjoyed that small little bit of RP. The day before our ban or a fee days before im not entirely sure, but myself a luis RP’d with Drew in Telos for a while and then in Athira where we had a PC and a PCSO with us just having a little laugh. KET just spiralled out of control the second James got banned, admittedly before his ban RP was still minimal but once James was banned everyones attitude changed, we had an angry mindset and a bad attitude to the community but that wore off too late as we had already been banned before we saw the light of RPUK

 

[Wilco]

So you put down the attitudes to James? Yet after the blanket bans your hanging out with him in a Teamspeak with J O S H being just as disgusting.

I think I'm wasting my time here, If one of my "friends" started going around insulting people as disgusting as your little mate being a keyboard warrior not only would I be questioning if they were mentally stable, I would have already distanced myself to the point of avoiding/unfriending them already.

But from what I hear it's not just him with the foul month is it Kevin?

 

[KEVINunban]

I do not like J O S H and am unsure why he was ever invited to play with us or who told him about our teamspeak.

Of course its not just james with a foul mouth, the whole teamspeak has become a hub for toxic people as I said james and I have had to ban people that keep joining that we just dont want in it, we are always questioning who new people are and why they are there. 

I tend to sit in my own little room with Jordan, James or Dobbs and we will just chill together. I dont play with the rest of KET and am rarely in the same ts room as them unless someone has asked for me or I’m checking up on what they are doing

I myself have had a foul mouth as made clear by my 2 teamspeak bans for abuse, I have kept all the toxic language and behaviour away from rpuk since my second teamspeak ban and wouldn’t say I am perfect. I am not sure who has been telling staff here about actions I have apparently done or said but the first thing that was brought up about me saying “fuck this community and its shitty admins” was never said and it seems someone is out to make me look bad, I never turned toxic to rpuk when I was banned like some people did, particularly blezard. There is some people in our teamspeak that just are not welcomed by myself or others but friends of friends get the ip and it expanded to elsewhere where previous banned players bring their toxicity to it, we never invited anyone to join our teamspeak, it was only all of us who had been blanket banned in the beginning but people ask for the ip and then send it on and it just leads to a mess

 

[Wilco]

I do not think someone is out to make you look bad, I think you do a good job of that yourself.

Seeing you are still hanging around with this idiot who on his latest outburst got him on the no appeals list, I do not think it is in the best interests to issue you an unban from Roleplay.co.uk at this time.

After the Saul Richman incident which you was personally calling someone a "snake" for doing the right thing by making a report I took a zero tolerance on this sort of attitude, This community is a clean place and we put a lot of time into making it as clean as it can be.

However, for some people, it's better just to close the door rather than waste more time, Its clear by your latest stint and what the gang was about which certainly wasn't roleplay by the people you recruited and the situations you got into.

Do not appeal again unless you've done some growing up and have changed the sort of company you seem to bounce off when around.
