Server 1

Please (in detail) describe the incident

I was pushing down a DMT to go and try to kill LT. Malley when i was shot through the floor in my opinion this is possibly exploiting tower lag. if this is not the case then i have no clue as to how i got shot. i was on the 2nd floor and Malley was on the first. I would love to see a video from Malley to help me understand what went on.

Ok, I will start off by providing full context to the events that took place before the incident, the UNMC had conducted an HM (I myself was not apart of this) when I joined the server I discovered that the UNMC checkpoint had come under attack by police and that UNMC was also involved in a firefight with rebels down by Neochori, I went to the fight at Neochori and helped escort the trucks to the gold buyer in Kavala, once the gold had been sold I returned to the fight at Neochori at which one of our trucks was disabled and potentially being lockpicked, after a brief firefight the truck was cleaned up, at this point we began to return to checkpoint to assist. I landed about 2 km south-east of the checkpoint and began working my way slowly up to the checkpoint itself. UNMC did not have thermal equipped helicopters in the air and as such, I was on higher alert than usual as I did not know if or where I may be getting shot from. I was about 300 meters from the checkpoint when I realised that restart was coming soon and if we were to do something drastic we had to do it soon. And after 1 failed attempt to retake tower 2, I decided myself and one other would attempt to push the tower one last time. The other soldier was killed by the first officer, and I killed that officer. I am now holding the stairs, knowing that one man was above me and that there were several police officers who could come up behind me my adrenaline and nerves were very high. I then saw a member of AR appear at the end of the stairs and due to my high adrenaline in the moment I began to spray at the target. After I had killed it I noticed the body was not on the bottom floor but I rushed up the stairs due to the dear of officers coming behind me. My fears were confirmed when I was pushed and killed by another officer. I did not record this as my shadow play was causing my game to stutter while I was at the kaval gold buyer, you can confirm this with Jefke as he was the staff member I asked if I could log out to fix this, upon logging back in I discovered the stutter was still there and switched off my shadowplay which seemed to fix it.

Ok so due to your video and my own sights it appears I did shoot you through the floor, However, I did not do this intentionally it was due to high adrenaline on my part and the tower lag making it seem like you were rushing me that caused me to react the way that I did. You are claiming that I exploited the tower lag, But I personally believe I was not exploiting , I do not control the tower lag, I did not cause the tower lag, I did not even realise that it was tower lag until I noticed that your body was absent from the first  floor of the tower, I did not sit there for a few seconds looking at the lagged version of you, it was a reaction shot and I am sincerely sorry for shooting you through the floor it was not my intent at all and would have been more than willing to resolve the situation through Teamspeak as an apology is much easier through speaking than it is through text.

Finally to the staff member that will review this report, there are several reasons as to why I believe I should be forgiven for this offence, there is no doubt that I did, in fact, shoot a lagging version of Coozer that appeared on my floor and because of this I am sorry, but I personally believe that due to the unplanned and unintentional nature of this offence we should chalk this down to a mistake, one that I won't repeat. This type of incident has happened before, I have seen people in reaction shoot targets who lag outside of towers purely out of the adrenaline caused by the nature of the gameplay that takes place on this server. What will I do in the future? Well there is not much that anyone can do to stop tower lag in the future to avoid these types of situations I will try and keep myself calmer, and if in the future I am in a similar situation I will try my best to make sure that any targets I shoot at inside of a gunfight will have a clear line of sight.

I have reviewed this report, and have decided not to take any action however i do pose a word of warning about shooting lagged versions of people in towers, it is in my opinion a exploit all be it a minor one as its usually very obvious  whats happening at the time.

That being said make sure it does not happen again and you make sure when pulling the trigger you are sure of your target.
