Unban Appeal for Mxtty1011
In-game Name: Matty Ford
Server: GTA RP
Steam ID: 76561198321573219
Ban ID: !!rpuk14583!!
Reason given for your ban: C1.14 , G1.2
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: I RDMed someone inside a gas station for not complying, with this i carried no RP behind my actions.
I was also banned for rule quoting/threatening to report someone, which was OOC
Why should we unban you ?: I am going to start with a back story of why i was reporting so many people, and what caused my RP to depreciate so low to the point where i was banned.
Me and my friends formed a sort of gang together to become well known in the city, we needed funds so we made a shop by coalition hill our territory and robbed many drug dealers for their drugs and cash. We done so for a long time, however despite a few players actually roleplaying it how they were supposed to, the majority of them rule broke and either NVLed or meta gamed which led to loss of time and our cover. This went on for a long time, having players ruin the RP nearly every single time which caused me to get more angry at the game and players, therefore my first plan of action was to start reporting the players which i done ALOT as i knew this was the correct way of dealing with it, not letting my frustration get the best of me.
My anger was growing and therefore i lost my quality of roleplay, as we never got the situation we were hoping for out of players.
With our victims we tried tieing gang members up and had plans to extort them for information of movements of drugs from the island so we could intercept, this worked sometimes but like i said the majority of the time many players sadly play to win and when faced with an opportunity that could cost them all their cash and drugs they instead either hit radio and give comms to their gang or just run away.
I ended up reporting every single rulebreak a potential robbery victim committed, and near the end of my time i was just frustrated of people not complying, that is my reasoning for why i ended up just punching the guy as he bragged that he had already banked his cash in the ATM.
The reports i had up were not the worst of it, i didn't have a clipping soft ware installed until it really started annoying me, explaining why some of my reports were not large rule breaks and more just a sign of my anger to the little things that players were doing in robbery situations. I am not saying all reports i made were insufficient evidence of a rule break, some of them were plain and obvious.
Looking back after 3 months of being banned, the plan me and my friends was a recipe for disaster, constantly robbing people on the server was 1 - not going to actually work in the long run due to people finding out who we were and 2 - with the anger and frustration building up in me was always going to end with me losing my temper. What I should of done was announce a different idea to my friends to mix it up and take the focus away from robbing people in a gas station when i started to realise my will to RP and quality of RP was dropping dramatically, instead i was just disappointed with players not doing what the server is all about and didn't have any second thoughts about mixing it up, i just followed what my friends were doing . I am not blaming it on my friends actions, i was assigned as the team leader, i just edned up taking a back seat and we went directionless into meeting at the gas station to rob people.
As for the rule quoting/report threats/ooc, i believe it is tied into the reason i RDMed. My will to just RP things out disappeared and eventually when someone started NVLing i do admit i tried subtly quoting rules and hints that i would report in a desperate effort just to get them to comply and give me the situation i wanted.
I know I've been banned a lot, however i still have a chance here if i can still appeal. i have waited 3 months to write this and in my opinion had plenty time to reflect.
On my previous return i tried to be a gang leader, leading a large group of friends to make a large gang named pink panthers, however its clear i am not a good leader as shown by my repetitive robbery strategy, So from that i have learned i wont try it again.
And i truly believe my intentions were clearly to have fun and make RPUK a better place, that is up to the point where i lost my temper and my will to RP. I can back that up by the fact i began by reporting every player i came across that i was convinced was breaking rules, and i made sure to put plenty effort into the reports. I also managed to form a solid group of lads and for the most part we did provide good RP to poeple we robbed, this involved tieing them up and taking them far away to get information out of them about their friends and trying to set up their gang members for other robberies.
I have slight hopes of anyone even looking at this never mind reading this far , but i do have another chance to appeal so i thought i would give my perspective and my apologies to anyone who was affected by my temper and poor RP.
