In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
During the situation leading up to my eventual ban, apparently there were a number of coincidences which made it apparent that I was metagaming and that I should be banned. This is for the 4.4 rule break.
During the situation, I was in a building with a police officer until my friend Kekman stormed the building and killed the officer and left and went to another building and when the officer was transferring me to that building, Kekman shot at him, and we also had a hellcat in the air the whole time, using thermals, who would have spotted me being moved to that specific building. I didn't say anything in direct because I heard Kekman coming and therefore didn't want to disturb or alert the police officer.
Then, later, once my cuffs were off and someone could come and roleplay me out of them, I put my hands back up and shortly after, Kekman enters the building and comes upstairs to the police officer's body. I agree, this is a coincidence but my friend didn't come straight over to me and instead went to the window/police officer first, until he noticed he could then roleplay me out of the handcuffs.
The third and final coincidence was that no video from our side could be shown due to the fact that I went AFK before I was contacted about the situation and I use shadowplay, and obviously I'm only going to record significant things and I didn't view this situation as significant at the time and so therefore from me there's no video. Kekman also didn't have a video.
The 1.7 rulebreak was completely my fault and I agree it was stupid because I said "//stop crying like a bitch" out of frustration, when the officer Kekman killed was complaining about me "metagaming".
I'm now going to quote the rules I apparently broke and explain them in my own words and explain why they're important to the server:
(1.7) As a roleplay game every situation is different and not everything can be detailed within these rules and so it is important to remember this is an adult community and some things simply come down to common sense. Things like the following; do not swear at people (out of roleplay), troll people, or bully people otherwise you will simply be banned from our servers.
This means that you should basically not say anything to offend someone out of roleplay whether that be a swear word or just a simple insult.
This is important because it keeps the community clean and lets people have a good time without anyone having any experiences where they feel offended or hurt.
(4.4) If you are restrained and communications have been removed you must not be active on any other forms of communications other than direct chat.
This rule means how when your comms have been taken you cannot communicate with your team via teamspeak or discord.
This rule is important because it stops you from having an unfair advantage in a gunfight.
Now, this is the reason I've been banned which has led to me needing to write a permanent unban appeal. I was in a channel where, at the time, people were sharing pictures of people in this community. I didn't report this and therefore I have been banned for basically not reporting disgusting behavior. I know this is important and I understand that I should have reported it to keep the community clean as obviously not reporting it will mean it goes unnoticed and obviously we don't want things like this being spread around. The reason I did not report it was because at the time I didn't see this as a direct rule break because as to my knowledge there's nothing specific like this in the rules however looking back on it, I now realise that it was stupid of me not to see sharing pictures of people in a bad manner. It might also connect to the fact that I've had my pictures shared before and I don't really care about it, so I naively assumed everyone would have the same opinion on the matter as me which again, I now realise was stupid.
What have you been upto in the last 6 months+ ?
It has not been 6 months.
Why do you want to return ?
I would like to return because during my 15 months on RPUK I had a lot of fun, obviously there I times where I didn't but the majority of my time here has been fun. Also, as it's currently my summer holiday, I have a lot of free time and RPUK was something to do during that time, obviously not at the moment but I hope I can get unbanned so I can enjoy more time on the server.
Why should we unban you ?

Also, with regards to the reason this is a permanent unban appeal, I was naive and stupid and I made a mistake, which I am actually very sorry about. As I said previously, I assumed everyone had the same or a similar opinion to me on the topic of getting pictures of yourself sent around. As I said, I don't really care when it's me, and I made the stupid and naive decision to expect everyone to feel the same way about it. If I ever get put in this situation again, I will report it immediately.
