Clearly you haven't been here very long, so let me explain something. VDM isn't solely running someone over, it is causing harm with your vehicle. Obviously you're entitled self has found this irrelevant in clearing your name, and maybe if you could just rewrite the rules everything would be okay. Not how it works skippy. Either way, it was RDM or VDM, so either way you're incredibly fucked. Also, you're cocky attitude really kind of fucked you over. People arguing against their position on the server should be humble and gracious, and frankly, if you were found innocent I'd still push for the ban, simply because you're inability to process things that might affect you in real life is absolute shit. This also reflects your role play, which, judging by your behavior, is worse than Steven hawking's 40 yard dash time.
Excuse me, who are you?
Everyone who communicated with me in anyway about this accident has agreed it was solely an accident. People effected by the accident have said they understand it was non-intentional and there is no problem.
I don't know if you were even there at the time, but if one thing was clear it was that this was in no way intentional. In real life people die in car accidents, just like this. If you think I should be banned because something happened, be it in roleplay or factors out of roleplay, that was completely unintentional - while there are people who get away with purposely trying to ruin peoples gameplay every day, then you just carry on barging in here telling me I am "fucked".
What I cannot understand is why you, and the original poster, would think that I would have any motive to try and ruin peoples gameplay like this. I understand more than anyone that it is extremely annoying when you die, and it is also very easy and tempting to blame it on someone else. This is simply an accident and it is unlucky that everyone was where they were at that time (although I stand by what I said in that they should not have been in the middle of the road while there was a pavement available).
Please tell me, where did you get the definition of "VDM" from? From what I can see you are just telling me what you think it means, your opinion.
VDM is not a term from AtlisLife UK, it is used in roleplay in all sorts of games, including Garry's Mod and so on. I'm not saying that I am not wrong, but all I did was construct a logical definition of the acronym.
Ask yourself now, for what reason were the rules put in place? To stop people who want to ruin the gameplay for others? To stop people who just don't care? To get rid of people being used as a scapegoat so there is someone to blame?
That last question seems to be what is going on here. If I am such a bad person who deserves to be banned so much despite if I did something wrong or not, why would I make such an effort to stay on this server? Because I care about it and truly love being around on it, hence why I wanted to show my support my donating so soon. I could leave for another server within seconds if I wanted to, but I know this is the server I want to be part of. I'm here for fun to have a good time with others.
As PLF Samurai and several others have said, the vehicles don't appear to be touching (and the second vehicle was stationary). The explosion shouldn't have happened even if it wasn't desync, but the game is like that. If this were real life the cars would be a bit smashed up, but an explosion would not have been caused by two vehicles ramming into each other like that, let alone not even touching themselves...
I am not going to go and say that this is all to do with lag or desync like a lot of people would. Just keep in mind that the explosions caused by this accident are unrealistic and I had no valid way of knowing that an explosion could be caused so easily - I didn't even know that there was a vehicle and people round the corner I turned, let alone another vehicle behind the HEMTT Boxed.
Lastly, you tell me I am being "cocky", meaning to be "conceited or confident in a bold or cheeky way". While I am certainly confident, I wouldn't say I am being "cheeky", but I would say the same for you. I am not going to write a blocky paragraph trying to put someone down and trying to insult them, I stick to useful sentences that contain valid points of information the community and admins need and want to see. It's just immature to do anything else...
You say I should be "gracious", let's get a definition on that as well: to be "courteous, kind, and pleasant". If I wanted, I could have wrote an aggressive response like you have, but I chose to keep stuff relevant and decent. I think I have been pleasant and courteous, and I am not sure how you want me to be "kind" to someone who is telling me I should be banned for something I feel is so clear I shouldn't.
