Reason given for your ban.
RDM

The Server you initially were banned on.
Server 1

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
The same thing I was banned for before. Pretty awful, I know.

I saw an ARAC man with a truck with a hatchback sport on the back, and I fancied it. I tell him this, and ask him to place his hands up, don't make me turn you into swiss cheese, if you drive off say bye-bye to your tires etc. He drives off and I shoot at his tires. No issues so far, turns into a car chase where ARAC man tries to ram me, I ram him, he blows up (was not my intention!) and I'm talking to the ARAC man on the ground, 'that was silly of you mate, don't worry I'll get the medics' as I never wanted to murder an ARAC man. I should add that a hatchback sport was following us, and at this point parked up next to ARAC man's body. I assume they're there as backup for ARAC man and are about to kill me, so I give a 'token' initiation of 'get out of the car with your hands up or I'll turn you into swiss cheese', granted this was a pretty atrocious initiation but I meant it sort of as a reminder rather than as a true start of roleplay since that had begun before. However, this must not have been the case, and in fact my own gang member was in the car with no GPS! I was later teleported by DaanV, who patiently explained to me the rules - I think he genuinely wanted not to ban me, but since I'd been banned for the same thing before he felt it necessary, and I don't blame him.

Why should we unban you ?
This section is harder - I was banned for RDM before around six months ago, and there said it wouldn't happen again. I've matured since then, and I think in general the quality of my roleplay has been far better, with roleplay AR weapons caches, offering cash to hobos to start their weed enterprises, and hiring four hobos to form an apple picking company to prestige. I've played as a journalist interviewing people and as a private detective uncovering the mystery of a stolen offroad. In hostile situations too I think I've improved, with kidnapping a nice policeman and forcing him to come to my tea party against his will, cultimating in a two hour court case with four lawyers arguing I had split personality disorder and had to be sent to a mental hospital.

Ultimately the other roleplay experiences I've had or created don't affect this situation, in which my roleplay was poor, and I apologise both to the ARAC man and to the hobo I killed afterwards if their experience on the server was made lesser as a result. I can't claim innocence on this count, and I understand if this is once too many. I can only leave it to staff to see that there is more I can offer to this community, and that my continual improvement is something that'd be a good thing rather than a burden.

I've matured since then
i have a hard time to believe this. 
So the staffmember took his time to speak to you. 
i got a short quote out of you ban notes. 

" I told this guy his initiation was way too short, and he replied with "Guess I have a new record then". "

very mature response isnt it? 

now you had some time to think about your actions. 
What will you do different next time?

That wasn’t what I said exactly - he told me to guess how long my initiation was, and I responded along the lines of ‘maybe a second and a half, pretty terrible’ or something along those lines. He replied ‘exactly, 1.5 seconds’, and I said ‘got it right, that’s a winner’ or similar. I know it wasn’t necessarily the most appropriate response, but I was extremely stressed and I don’t think I was showing that I was taking it as a joke, at least certainly not intentionally. I think in the rest of my discussion with DaanV I was good in my communication, but I understand if he took that as me seeing the whole situation as a joke.

Next time consider that this server is about creating roleplay situations, not about shooting everyone/‘winning’ situations. I should have considered that if the people in the car weren’t actually involved with the ARAC man, that they hadn’t been involved in any meaningful roleplay, and therefore I should talk to them and create a story rather than just shooting them. It’s not fun to get killed, and being part of a funny/interesting situation certainly lessens the sting of losing 200k. It’s also just the point of the server - my best memories here are my 2 hour court cases, organising businesses, and forcing two captured cops to have a singing showdown, not winning gunfights.

Not only that but you were also warned due to 





There seems to be a pattern here, you say you've matured and whatnot but your actions definately speak otherwise.  You say it wouldn't happen again, but here we have 2 similar situations after you've said it.

With the CI Arrow situation, I never intended to create a gunfight, and my roleplay was fine - I had an issue with Arrow’s actions, that he took my roleplay as giving him licence to shoot, and I asked for staff to clarify under what situation he would be allowed to shoot. This incident was many months ago, but I don’t think it generally reflected poorly on me to a great extent. The question I asked you about hostile RP came from the perspective that I didn’t think simple hostility in the roleplay was enough to warrant shots, not that I believed it did.

The issue in that situation was that I didn’t hot-mic all communications, but this turned out to not particularly affect the course of roleplay. However, I can see what you mean when you say this is not the first mistake I have made since my previous ban - I wouldn’t consider this situation as being bad/lack of roleplay on my part, however, unlike the situation with the ARAC man which I was banned for. With the Arrow situation, although I didn’t act perfectly I don’t believe my roleplay was of sub par quality.

I’d like to add as an afterthought thanks for the quick response, I know unban appeals aren’t exactly top priority and it’s nice of you to take time to respond, so thanks for that 🙂

If you end up in the same situation, you understand that you won't even get the chance to appeal it at all for 6 months - you mess up again and you're out?

That seems more than reasonable - I'm sixteen in a couple weeks, and I'd like to join the NHS (Although I won't be very active for a while because of exam season), hopefully I'll be able to do that 🙂
