First of all, here is the video in my defense.
http://plays.tv/video/587ea6cfabcc342b90/k?from=user

The situation:

This officer (Info) was chasing me around pyrgos due to me having a vermin on my back. Due to money being hard to earn, and me only just leaving red zone after buying my vermin. I of course didn't want to lose my weapon as most rebels wouldn't. I was told to stop running, but of course to try and flee i proceeded in running. Once i get to a straight street, where a taser shot was easy, i was shot at but managed to avoid the round. I then lethally initiate on the officer, saying

‘If you try and tase me, i am going to blow your head of’

Before opening fire on the officer, i scream stop multiple times, as i know he thinks i'll be an easy picking due to me only having a holstered vermin. So i take my gun off of my back whilst screaming. He then proceeds to shoot 2 more taser rounds, to which i retaliate with fire, killing the officer (which i promised to do).

The gunfight then proceeded, as more cops were killed.

Midway through the gunfight as i am assaulting another officer, i am banned without warning.

The ban message read ‘poor/fail RP’

I then rushed to close my game, and upload the video of the situation, which is the one i provided. As this was a police issue, i still tried to go to the police rebel liaison room to speak to info. As he had the ‘DnD’ tag active, I messaged 3 separate people in his patrol channel, to ask him for me if it is ok to speak to him.

Shortly after i am told, that he has watched the video from my perspective, but hadn't said anything further.

Whilst waiting in the liaison room, hoping to have a simple conversation, to either resolve my instant ban, or give me a valid reason why i was banned, DI Wiisy joined, to inform me info was not going to join, as he is a member of support and the issue is admin based rather than ingame. Of course this got me slightly concerned, and angry, as i thought a member of support would be able to come and speak to me after banning me instantly, at least to confirm why he did so.

This, and the fact i was being told to by gang members as they also thought the situation was unfair, prompted me to join the staff support room.

I then messaged a few admins, asking for opinions, to which i only got two answers as i had to log off shortly after and i'm sure they were busy.

Stuart, then asks me to jump up, so i can have a conversation with him and Kieran Rhead. Once i spoke to them, and almost begged in a polite way to have a simple conversation with info, he finally jumps up.

Of course i was expecting him to be annoyed, as he instantly banned me through what looked to be anger. However i did not expect him to join with such an aggressive nature directed at me, and swearing at me repeatedly.

I asked why i was banned initially, to which i got the response. ‘Because that was absolutely shit RP’ Which fair enough, some people may see it as poor, on the police side. Yet that was one opinion.

However, i still attempted to argue my side in saying ‘I lethally initiated and you still attempted to tase me, i gave you fair time and you took the risk to tase me two more times.’

A few more words were then exchanged, until i got the grounding response ‘It's players like you who make this server so shit’

This of course triggered me to not what to speak to him, as his opinion was portrayed rudely and arrogantly, so i did not try to speak further as i could feel the tension and i did not want to ruin my chances of potentially being unbanned. Once info left the room abruptly, i further spoke to Stuart and kieran rhead, asking them to try and let a staff lead member, or multiple staff lead members that i wish to speak to them at four o'clock the following day.



Alternative situations:

- Due to a sniper being aimed at you, you would have succesfully tased and restrained me, and found yourself dead shortly after. E.g. leading to the situation ending in the same way, however i would be detained.
- You would've won the situation without being killed, and i would've lost my weapon that i had only just purchased.
- I would have previously initiated, and gave you more of an opportunity to tase me, meaning i would have less of a chance to escape, which was the overall goal.

Alternative Negatives on my side:

- This situation would have made the fight much easier for you, and bare in mind it was the plan to win and escape, i didn't want to let this happen. A warning was provided, and you chose to try and tase me. The misses are what go you killed.
- Me and my three guys money would've been down the drain, totalling to around 1 million, when we had only just purchased the sets of gear we carried.
- If i was to have given you the extra opportunity to try and tase me, i would've found myself handcuffed, making the fight one more man down on our side, preventing us from winning as we believed there was just enough to win. This would've made the situation pointless, and my men would have fled. (Why i defended myself so shortly after initiation).

You may see some of these things as sacrifices rebels have to make, however if we have an opportunity to avoid this sacrifice, it becomes irrelevant. This allows the civ players to get a better experience on the server, without going away from the rules.

Also you say my RP is poor, however the initiation i was given, was only known to me because my gang member told me, as you were well away from me by about 40m. This to me is poor, as you began to instantly fire taser rounds at me, which was my initial prompt to go for the fight in the first place, as i knew i had no other alternative once you ‘think’ a ‘quality’ initiation has been made.



What you may ask?:

If the role play option was taken, the weapon may not have been seized with good role play, why didn't you try?

I didn't take my chance with this, as i knew with a car full of armed men, there was no valid excuse to try and play the gun off as something else. Also due to Info being a high ranking officer, and excuse such as ‘i have been working with weapons along time’ would have been used to seize my weapon.

Why did you run away without attempting to speak to the officer?

I began to run away due to him being distracted. I saw this as an opportunity to gain distance between me and him, allowing me to take cover whilst fleeing in turn making it harder for him to tase me.

Why did you have to go for the gunfight?

The gunfight occurred due to me not wanting to depart from my weapon. It was not mandatory for it to occur, if the cop listened to me when i said ‘stop or i will blow your head off’. As he was only holding a non lethal taser, i believe he should have conceded as he saw 3 other armed men previously within my car. As he was a lone officer, due to me dragging him from the rest of his patrol, this made him heavily outnumbered.

Why did you have a gun out in the first place?

As you can see in the video, i did not own a bag, as we were going to try and role play as hobos, and scare people when we whip out out shitty guns. Yet we were greeted upon leaving Red zone by officers.







My thoughts on the way i was spoken to on team speak.
This is opinionated.

I understand fully that Info would have been irritated by what had happened, yet i believe by any standards, primarily a staff team level four, i should have been spoken to and or dealt with in such a way.

Mainly, the fact i was instantly banned. Any standard officer would've came to speak to me in the liaison. I firmly believe, a staff member, especially level four, should NOT have banned me instantly. A simple chat may have, most likely would have resolved the situation.

Quotes:
‘Its players like you who make this server so shit’ -
This would've been enough to get any standard member of the community 1.6d within a blink of an eye, yet because he is a staff member level four, he has authority to do so?

‘You always give shit role play’ -
I'm unsure if this is generally aimed at invictia as a gang, but i believe my role play is par at the worst of times. I enjoy to role play. People could agree with me in saying, i do give out good role play. Bare in mind i have never had a situation with you in game, i have no idea how such an accusation can be made.

*After attempting to fight my case* - ‘You know exactly what you did Matt, OK?’ *leaves room* -
This just seemed rude, arrogant, and completely power mad. Again this is my opinion and you may think its negative, or probably even keep me banned for it, but i don't see how something as rude as that is acceptable. EVERY single person i have spoken to on team speak, be it i don't get along with the person, we haven't had a good situation and it hasn't been resolved fully etc. An apology/decency to say bye is there on either side.

Due to my past offences, i highly regret i'm going to be unbanned, but i want to put my point of view across, and show the experience i got into with a level four member of staff.

Of all of these, the second angered me the most. Of course people like gunfights, otherwise the server wouldn't be played on arma. It's a mil-sim game. However, my
efforts to role play in game are much higher than many other peoples, and this situation is really not a good representation of what i can provide.

Why should we unban you ?
Most of why is mentioned above. A clear indication to how much i want to play the server is the effort i have put into fighting my case. I love it here. The community, the ingame side of things. The support given by people with more authority with you. Its premier. No where else i have attempted to go has given such a quality experience as here. I could say i would improve my roleplay and all of that, yet i firmly believe my roleplay is good, and many people could agree. I hope to be back playing soon.
