Okay, so an official post from PLF combined.
On (approximately) the 16th October we had removed one of our members (Joby Sherred) from the PLF gang. Joby Sherred was kicked for several counts of trolling within the gang even after being warned several times, 2 counts of promoting another server within Altis Life UK Server by suggesting PLF are going to move server and become the Whitelisted Rebels and in further instances asking members of PLF to join another Altis Life Server, to which Maratek has been completely informed of.
After removing Joby Sherred from the gang we gave his in-real life friends the option to leave with him, one of them included the previous banned Loz, the other being AWOL. PLF felt AWOL was a solid member, a great role player and a good asset to the gang, regretfully but understandably they decided to leave with Joby Sherred. Swiftly after, when Loz was unbanned he logged on, stole £800,000 (approx) from the gang funds. No biggie, we retained their combined £3,600,000 from a previous bank job to which we had full intentions of giving them until we encountered them RDM'ing PLF Gabriel and PLF mrpat.
During last few days we've received insults from the ABD gang, general trolling and so on. Yesterday afternoon (22/10/2014) we saw in side chat that 2 people from ABD were breaking into houses. I decided to head back to the gang base to confirm if it was our houses when I realised three of my doors were open and and the majority of the content missing, tabbed out to find that AWOL had messaged me with nothing but a winking face. No matter, it's not against server rules to rob people.
Later today we had taken Loz hostage near Athira, upon him entering my hellcat I was metagamed from the start. In fact, you can just see the video below - folks, I introduce you to Role play 101.
After these events, I headed off to do some other stuff, returned to find that a few of PLF members were being followed by two helicopters, who were in fact being flown by P.M.C members, some of which were metagaming the PLF members through mobile phone to order them to stop. Another classic instance of metagaming. I advised those on the ground to return to our base, purchased a .50 cal off road in which Vlad setup in and fired warning shots. I set up on the hill and waited, I noticed a chopper landing in the distances and waited behind a rock. After 10 minutes of these helicopters chasing us, ignoring the warning shots, Vlad and Wolf decided to head to the other chopper and were shot out of .50 cal near instantly. Reporting at least 6 members on the ground a few metres on the opposite side of the hill we had come to the conclusion this is now a gang war, something we were under the impression that advanced notice and permission would need to be requested by the admins. I set up and killed 4 people approaching my location when I received several texts from The Increment and DynCorp asking if we required help to which I agreed. I held out for 5 minutes before they arrived taking out the enemy gangs 1 by 1.
When help arrived our alliances flanked the enemies from their rear leaving none to spare at which time, Joby Sherred & co were slaughtered. Immediate crying ensued in side chat accusing of RDM and so on. Despite them actually being fully armed in the middle of a un-announced gang war on PLF. Messages were sent to us straight away asking "compensation or ban".
When we thought the contact had ended I was with a medic who was working on the dead in which another person started shooting at me. A member & friend of PLF approached the shooter in an ifrit and killed him, surprise! It was Loz. As seen in this video:
This was the end of the engagement, Altis was at calm and we took the chance to thank our comrades.
Ultimately, what has happened here was simply a massive violation of the rules to which I had no intention of reporting simply because we destroyed the attacking forces.
I can only assume, since ABD, P.M.C & BPS had full intentions on killing us but failed they've taken their chances of the forums to try and get us banned when realistically, the only rules broken here have actually been by the attackers, here's another video of a P.M.C member fucking up.
(P.M.C Mazz bugging restrained but failing.)

(Joby Sherred, I'd take that as an admittance that he's there to kill but was stopped within his tracks.)

(A rather amusing image of Mazz admitting he bugged and a good few words for P.M.C)
The only thing I can suggest for the 3 attacking gangs involved in this, if you're going to recruit - recruit good players. If you're going to attack a gang, make sure you have permission. If you're going to attack a good gang and expect to win, make sure you're better than them.
