The date of your ban.
30/10/18

Member of the team that banned you.
Sonder

Reason given for your ban.
2.2

The Server you initially were banned on.
Server 1

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
I was robbing a bank with a friend, and about 2 minutes into the robbery a police car arrived on the scene and two officers got out, with one running up to hide behind our vehicle, and the other staying behind theirs, both of them being able to see my friend inside the bank. I had been waiting for them to arrive in a shed close to the bank, with the intention of being able to have a second angle to engage them from where they would not expect me to be hiding. Once they had arrived, I interpreted the officer running to our vehicle as intending to impound it, rather than use it as cover as it was a relatively poor position, and as such moved to a position where I could engage him before he could do so. I opened fire on him, but was gunned down by the second officer before I was able to kill him, presumably due to dysync as I saw atleast four impacts, with two being on his head.

Why should we unban you ?
The entire situation came down to a misinterpretation of what the officer was intending to do regarding our vehicle, which was our only method of escape in the event of a successful robbery. This was only the second or third time I had played on the server, and the first time me and my friend had been involved with illegal activity,, and as such our first encounter with officers on this server. My only prior experience playing life and interacting with officers as a civilian was back on Arma 2, on servers such as TL:R and BB, where I would fully expect an officer to impound vehicles during a robbery and to open fire on robbers with little to no interaction, which I daresay influenced my decision to engage the officer to prevent him from doing so, as that is what I perceived him to intend to do. I am new to the server and fully intend to play much closer attention to the rules and the expectations of RP on the server in the event that I am unbanned.

So you were banned for RDM and also combat logging.

We require a significantly higher quality of roleplay before we will permit shooting at someone.



have a read of this post by our staff member Matt.

then go to our rules page and find the rules you were banned for, then copy&paste them in your reply, then explain in your own words what they mean (adding in relevent information from Matts post above) and explain why you think we have these rules on our server.

 
(2.2) Random Deathmatch (also known as RDM) - Shooting at someone without engaging in any form of quality role play (eg. Giving enough time for them to comply with your order. Count downs are not considered quality roleplay, please at least attempt to create an interesting roleplay story before considering shooting.) is considered RDM. (Punishment is a ban).

Random Deathmatching - Randomly engaging any other player, regardless of their role, without a reasonable and sufficient roleplay taking place beforehand. This is in place to prevent players from randomly attacking each other. While there is not a black and white answer to whether sufficent roleplay has taken place, this will become apparent given the situation. High quality is required in order for combat to be initiated, at which point combat will not be considered to be RDM. This rule also does not apply in red zones. Context is ignored in the RDM rules, so cannot be used as a defence.

(2.5) Combat logging at any point during RP is exploiting. Some examples of this include: logging out during a firefight, being chased by the police, arrested by the police, while dead awaiting a medic, logging out in order to save gear, rage-quitting, logging out whilst restrained/detained. Punishment is a ban. Staff can make an informed decision depending on if you’ve made an attempt to resolve the issue. We do suggest you attempt to rejoin the server and continue the roleplay (try messaging them with the mobile system first).

Combat logging is where players log out to avoid combat, usually to avoid losing gear, however on this server it also applies to logging out whilst awaiting a medic.  This rule is in place so that people don't log out to avoid combat as this breaks RP, as if a player logs out they cannot serve their sentence for a crime.

 
What will you do different if you get yourself in the same situation again? 

 
Come up with a backstory as to why I am robbing the bank regarding some sort of financial difficulty or other attempt to appeal to the humanity of the officers, only resorting to violence in self defence or if all attempts to plead with the officers fail. 

 
Remarkable how quickly you can bait someone into snapping, but take ages to actually respond to anything else...

For whats supposedly one of the largest and "best" communities on Arma 3, these forums are appalling, as are your protocols for dealing with rule breaking. You are aware there are options between kick and permanent ban?

Well, following appeal rules is a hard thing to do.


3 days for bumping.

 
You are aware there are options between kick and permanent ban?
one of the reasons all bans are permanent until succesfully appealed. is so everyone get the same treathment.
No discusion afterwards. 

Now you broke server rules.then comes to appeal and then break our appeal rules. 
Is it hard fro you to follow rules? 
Quote me the appeal rule you broke. adn explain why we have that ion place.

 
The appeal has been Timed out, We are unable to keep ban appeals open indefinitely, You may reopen a new appeal but don’t forget to give our rules a thorough read over again here.
