Server: GTA RP
Character Name: Bruce Biscuits
Steam ID: 76561199467603529
Ban ID (just the numbers): 16689
Ban Reason: G4.5, UKN, C1.6
Why do you think you were banned: I know I was banned as I was downed in a fight with Azteca’s by a local car at legion, I was taken to pillbox and I then returned to the place where the combat took place. I was pulled by Jessie and another staff member and was childish and didn't take responsibility in my actions. Also I was further banned for two separate reasons that I would like to explain and reason below if allowed the opportunity to do so.
Why should we unban you: G4.5 - NLR (Azteca fight at legion)
After being banned on April 1st 2024, I’ve taken time to reflect and take responsibility for my actions. It’s been 445 days, just over a year since I was banned. During this time I’ve learnt a lot about role play and gaming as a whole. I’ve been able to take my emotions out of situations allowing me to continue on with a cool head and not over react to situations with a negative take. My overspill of emotions is what essentially landed me in this unban section in the first place. I let a distasteful situation get the better of me which should of never happened, I feel with the time away from RPUK I've been able to separate emotion and actions for the better. Roleplay is all about your 'Character' and at the specific time of my rule break I didn't separate that.
Jessie quoted in my first unban appeal:
"I understand and appreciate that you want to try and make amends/ get unbanned, I really do but this will be declined as there has been no time for you to reflect on your actions"
This statement still remains the same. I still do want to make amends and prove to everyone involved that it was a mistake and that it really didn’t need to happen. I’ve had a lot of time to reflect on these actions and can fully understand where I went wrong. I can only hold myself accountable for these mistakes, at the time I blamed another group for my rule break and never took the responsibility but this has changed fully. I can assure you I’ve learnt from this mistake, since my ban I’ve played a couple other FiveM servers and RedM servers to further my roleplay standards as well, as I did notice them drop and I never wanted it to be that way. I gave roleplay as a whole a good break after getting banned and have since returned but never found a server quite as gripping as RPUK. I think this is down to the community and the high standards of roleplay across the server that I want to be back involved in and also feel I can really contribute to.
Also I would like to apologise to Jessie for being miserable and cold in my responses on that roof the day I was pulled. The responses I gave to you were childish and I do apologise for that.
All I was asked at the time was to give my thought process but yet I relied with "You caught me, what can I say" and "Check the Teccas". This was totally the wrong way to respond and look at the situation in general. I should of owned up and taken responsibility for my actions, worked with the 2 staff members present. No one else can change my actions bar me and I hope to rectify those. I knew minutes later how I should of responded but I was heated in the moment and couldn't pull myself together and I do apologise for that. My attitude was off and I do regret it as the staff only wanted a conversation but I gave them no choice as I wasn't willing to hold a proper conversation like an adult at the time.
I know you guys as staff/devs do this all unpaid and having someone being a pain in the ass isn't appreciated nor needed. To my knowledge I've always had good and positive interactions with staff members and devs prior to this encounter, never have I been disrespectful so this was completely out of character for me. Trust takes time to build seconds to break but hopefully you can see I do regret these actions and am trying to make the correct steps forward.
UKN - Alliance Ban
I was banned for being a member of the Alliance, I was also banned due to a drop in roleplay standards and getting into as many gun fights as possible.
I can agree that my roleplay standards did drop and this was nothing but my own fault as I do hold myself to higher standards and I have to take responsibility for my own actions. Maybe a break from roleplay would have been the best option for me at the time but I chose not to as I was stuck in a cycle. I do believe the 11 months away from RPUK has allowed me to refresh, reset and rethink. Hopefully allowing me to come back with a new mindset, fresh ideas and avenues that I'd like to share with the RPUK community if allowed that golden ticket back.
Taking a step back and looking over the 2+ years I spent on the server I appreciate the storylines and actual roleplay much more than any gun fight I participated in. At the time I didn't see it this way and I got caught up in my own actions not realising I was being selfish and ruining the server for a lot of others. I've always been one to try help the community and enhance peoples experiences not make them feel worried coming onto the server as people use RPUK as an escape and I wouldn't want to purposefully jeopardies that for those people.
A lot of time has past since then and I can happily say my outlook on roleplay has completely changed. I want to make stories and scenarios that all parties can enjoy and take a positive experience from.
C1.6 - Community Ban
This ban was given out as from what I know other members of Alliance were spamming messages and videos into the RPUK discord in the period everyone got banned. I was not involved or apart of this act. In all honesty I wasn’t even aware of this happening until I looked at my discord on my phone and seen I was no longer in any RPUK official discords and a friend still in the community at the time told me what happened. At the time of all of this happening I was on a train travelling to get away that weekend. I can only apologise for what happened but I can assure you that I wasn't apart of it.
Since then I have personally been removed from the forums as well, I can understand that you may have seen the spam messages and assumed everyone was involved but this wasn't the case. I'm not here to cause issues, I've never been one to do that. I've made good friends from RPUK and I wouldn't risk that by being distributive in anyway.
To end this appeal off I would like to thank any staff that takes their time to read this appeal as I know it takes time out of your day to process theses but I wanted to try get across my perspective and my points of each individual ban provided. I do wish you see my appeal as an individual and not as a collective as I don’t condone any of the past actions. I hold myself responsible for all the actions I personally portrayed, I have learnt from my mistakes and I'm looking forwards to hearing back from you soon, Bruce Biscuits.
Again, Sorry to Jessie and the other staff member who was on the roof that day. I hope you guys can accept my apology as its not a true representation of myself and I do hope to rectify this honest mistake and lapse of character.
