Unban Appeal - Segeco - GTA RP

Server: GTA RP
Character Name: Petrovik Abbruzi
Steam ID: 76561198121585279
Ban ID (just the numbers): 19983
Ban Reason: C2.3
Why do you think you were banned: I believe that I was banned a result of logging out at around 1am yesterday whilst downed within jail. Myself and a friend were messing around with no-one else present where he accidentally punched me one too many times.
Why should we unban you: After reading through the rules in detail, I understand that logging out whilst incapacitated is against the rules. However as i am fairly new to the server I didn't realise this would classify as combat logging as a result of messing around with a friend, had there been others present in the situation then I would have never logged out whilst they were present.

To give further context to the situation, the booking process of myself and my friend took around 2.5 hours in total and I was pressed for time as have to be up early for work each morning, usually getting to bed at about 10:30. At this point it was almost 12:30 and was rushing to get to bed as was needed to be on a site the next day at 6:30am.

Apologies for any inconveniences I have caused, genuinely would not have logged out at all had I known it would have resulted in any type of punishment as I have really been enjoying the community recently with a friend and the winding down in the evening.
Please confirm that you have read the unban appeal process and rules: Yes

Hi Stavik,

I hope you are well.

It disrupts roleplay and gives an unfair advantage. When you disconnect during combat to avoid consequences (like losing items, being arrested, or dying) it breaks immersion and ruins the RP experience for others.

“Logging out 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 permanent 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).”

To avoid this in the future I would ensure that I have enough time for situations like this and not need to be in a rush, and to always refrain from disconnecting while downed or in a roleplay situation. If I leave the game due to a technical reason I’ll rejoin as soon as possible and message the person with the mobile system.

Thank you!

Or you can discord to alert staff in a ticket if its necessary. (Remind me that we need to add that in at some point)

Okay, Segeco. You are new, i can understand that not all rules are well known to you yet. It takes some time to get there. I find myself having to look them up here and there and this is my 10th year in the community.

Whats gonna happen is i am going to wipe your inventory from when you were downed. This is so you cant keep whatever stuff you have on you that you in theory, could have lost.

This is also going to be your condition for the unban, agree to it and we’ll sort it and have you unbanned or say no and you must find a new place.

Do you agree to the inventory wipe?

No problem at all! You can wipe my inventory at the point when I was downed.

Thank you very much for the assistance and speedy response with this appeal.

Definitely, It would make the rule clearer when reading it if you mention that you are able to use a discord ticket.

Thanks again

Alright, you are unbanned.
Take this as a chance to get going and dont come back to this section again.
