Reason given for your ban.
(2.4) Using any exploits such as looting dead bodies, duplication of items or money, using the ‘Flip Vehicle’ feature outside of its intended purpose, transferring / processing items through walls and windows,and locking doors that have been broken into before 10 minutes have passed, IE those that have been bolt-cut. Punishment is a permanent ban without appeal. If you discover an exploit that nobody else knows about, please reveal it to a staff member privately in order to ensure that it does not be abused in the future.
The Server you initially were banned on.
Server 1
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
I was banned for exploiting. A lot of things can be considered exploiting, but if i have to describe exploiting in my own words i would say that exploiting is when you do something that you shouldn't be able to do in your advantage. I will quote (from the rules) and say from my mind things that can be considered exploiting:
- "looting dead bodies, duplication of items or money, using the ‘Flip Vehicle’ feature outside of its intended purpose, transferring / processing items through walls and windows,and locking doors that have been broken into before 10 minutes have passed, IE those that have been bolt-cut"
- "Combat logging at any point during RP"
- "Filling your vehicle up with gold bars from the treasury without going outside the building"
- Give items/money to someone that is in a chopper that didn't land yet
- Using a bug to get advantage
Talking about my situation and what happened to lead me to get banned. I was helping out a downed friend. He was shot something around 10 mins before I reach the place so as soon as I reached the location I gave him blood. After that I proceed to drag him to the car to get him a medic. The car was a bit far away so i put my hands up and turn them back down again so i could run faster. Basically I did something that shouldn't be able to do to get some advantage. I never thought this was exploiting as I saw many members from this community doing the same thing that I've done, including police members, medics, etc. Nevertheless now that I know and if the un-bann appeal gets accepted I will never do this again and I will point out to other players that I will come across in game to not do this as well.
Why should we unban you ?
I play on this server with some friends for a while now and if i knew that i could get banned, I would not risk it to save 3 seconds of my life dragging a bleeding body. I knew that could be considered exploiting, but I thought that as long as it doesn't intefere with roleplay and as long as it doesn't give you any kind of "valuable" advantage you could do it. I was wrong ... After think about it, it's kinda obvious that i shouldn't do it. Afterall, no matter how small the advantage is, it keeps be considered exploiting and may lead to a ban.
Being banned is a "bad" thing, but it makes people improve RP. This ban make me think a bit more about the rules and understand it a bit better.
If i had to say why and what I would change if i get unbanned it would be:
1-
What i would change:
I would not exploit again.
Why:
I learned that the rules are extremely seriously, and some of them have no exception. It doesn't matter the impact it has on game. Even if you use it to get +1$, as long as it is a rule break, you shouldn't do it, and you will probably get banned
2-
What i would change:
Improve my roleplay
Why:
After get myself banned, i read the rules again, some of them more than once to make sure that i understood what they meant. In consequence i will improve my roleplay because i think that i know exactly what i'm able to do in a higher amount of scenarios.
3-
What i would change:
I will keep myself under the rules and do my best to dont be banned again
Why:
I really dont wanna be banned again. I understand that was completly my fault . . . Humans make mistakes, but from my point of view what matters is learning with them. I did indeed learn with my mistake. I will keep myself under the rules and read every rule update from now on, so if they change i will be aware about it.
To conclude, and try to prove that i've learned with this, I will explain how to avoid this kind of mistake. If someone gets in a similar situation where they need to drag a friend and try to take him to the medic, they should drag the body normally. If for some reason they need to hurry up, they should just park the car in front of the bleeding body so they could get their friend on the car faster (without exploiting) and drive him to the medic.
