Server: GTA RP
Character Name: Ellis Jones
Steam ID: 76561199567946010
Ban ID (just the numbers): 19718
Ban Reason: (G3.1 OOC Info) Metagaming
Why do you think you were banned: I was banned for metagaming in a situation involving myself and the police. I logged on to the server around 2:15pm and began driving round looking for people to interact with, i drove down towards civ impound where i noticed 2 police cars chasing a low-rider style car with 2 people in it. The car pulled up to me where i realised it was my friend, who then jumped out of his car and in to mine which then lead to the police chasing after us for a few minutes. After a short while we both decided to decamp from my car and attempt to run away as we both had some red gulls.
I ran through a car park where Hank was the only person chasing after me so i pulled my gun out, aimed it at him and i think i told him to stop? and was tazed straight away and cuffed. I then went down and was being taken to pillbox where i began talking on discord to my friend where i told him to /die, ironically he didnt hear me as he was not in the call but Hank heard me as i was hotmic'ing. I dont believe Hank heard what i said, but during our conversation in QE i told him and was honest as id simply lost my head and i ruined the RP experience for both myself and Hank. Metagaming has no place in RP and like i have said, it is never something i would partake in.
Why should we unban you: I unfortunately have been banned for metagaming before so i know how it would be easy enough to reject my appeal and give me a cooldown but i know that it is a complete lapse in judgement. Since my last metagaming ban over 12 months ago (which was a stupid lapse of judgement) i believe i have always provided high quality RP and made every interaction enjoyable for everybody i meet. Metagaming is not something i partake in, i overreacted in the moment and lost my cool. Immediately after it happened i realised how stupid it was and tried my best to apologise to Hank as it ruined his experience. We are all here to roleplay and have an enjoyable time together and i greatly diminished it for both of us.
Since my time away from the server i have played in a few different servers on both FiveM & RedM and honestly, nothing comes close to the community that you have built here and i thoughroughly believe i can still be a great asset to it. During my time away whilst playing other servers, i tend to either stay away from discord, and if i am on discord and playing a server, i stay deafened for the duration of my playtime. I understand the severity of metagaming and the affect that it has on the players and i regret what i did massively and can only try and plead for a final chance to prove to you that ive changed. and start to begin to rebuilt the trust back with staff.
If i was to be given a chance, id be open to whatever avenue staff would take to allow it to happen, like possibly any metagaming ban of the sort being a permanent ban with no chance of appeal, or even any other ban being a 3-6 month cooldown.
Id like to be unbanned as i know it is not something that every happens during my time playing. I thoroughly enjoy playing both my Police character and my Crim character and id be gutted to not be able to hop in the server and have fun with everybody. If i were to be unbanned, id only ever play the server when i was calm (like i normally do) but in this situation i was tired and exhauted after working all day. Id like to apologise to Hank as he didnt deserve for me to ruin his time playing.
Regards, Ellis.
