Server 1

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
I was banned for driving over a person multiple times.

Why should we unban you ?
About the incident itself:
A friend of mine got detained by the police for an unknown reason (at least I don't know the reason for it). Therefore I tried to free him by stealing the car so the police would follow me. Driving over the people wasn't planned at first in this process as I just wanted to flee with the car as fast as possible in the hope that all the cops would follow me. After this wasn't the case I did drive back and tried to down (driver over) the one police officer who still had my friend in custody, so he gets enough time to flee. After failing at this I got shot and send to the prison.

Why should you unban me:
I did only start playing Arma recently as you can see on my steam profile due to the Humble Bundle. Due to the high learning curve of Arma and Altis Life (without playing any prior tutorial) I got quite frustrated with the game relativly fast, so when I first joined the server I wasn't really in the mood to read all the rules. And frankly I wasn't exception to be that many and strict rules, probably due to my inexperience with role playing. This isn't a defensive standpoint, just some background, because I know its my own fault for not getting myself familiar with the rules.

So, why should you unban me? I'm sorry about the incident and I'm now familiar with all the rules (which is quite much!). I can also assure that I will try my best not to break any rules anymore.

English isn't my native language; please excuse any errors on my part.

Please don't see this reply as "bumping" as it would be quite useless anyway since the post is quite high up due to recent submission.

I just wanted to quote and explain the rule I broke as I think this will be part of this appeal as seen in other threads in the hope to speed this up (as I really want to play on the server again) and maybe save some time for the person reviewing this.

Broken Rule:

(2.1) Vehicle Deathmatch (also known as VDM) - Using your vehicle as a weapon (e.g running people over, causing explosions, ramming, etc), will result in you receiving a ban. Three vehicles are excluded from this, MRAPS (Ifrits, Hunters and Striders) can ram other MRAPS in order to disable them, yet not to kill the passengers. This is allowed as these vehicles are the only vehicles ingame that can withstand being rammed. Please note that you need to initiate roleplay before attempting to ram an MRAP. (Please note - MRAPS don't need to be initiated on in the redzone) This is to prevent random ramming on site. (Three minutes of chasing also constitutes initiation of MRAP and MRAP ramming).

Well, basically that means that any maliciously intended actions with vehicles are forbidden beside the exclusion for MRAP's with other MRAP's which need to be initiated, but in the redzone. It probably also helps to understand that the roleplay somewhat relates to the real life laws if I'm not mistaken.

This is the kind of appeal we're looking for. Lots of effort and no reason to extend it further... Follow the rules moving forward.

Unbanned.

(For the record you could have hit the edit button on your post instead of re-posting to prevent "bumping" but I don't see any malicious intent)
