Unban Appeal for JasonB_Unban
In-game Name: Jason Barnes
Server: GTA RP
Steam ID: 76561197990247051
Ban ID: Unable to get this
Reason given for your ban: C1.6
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: I will include all the details below.
Why should we unban you ?: First of all thank you for taking the time to read this absolute wall of text and I apologise in advance to whoever clicked on this appeal
It has been almost 12 months since I was originally banned from the server. I received an exploiting ban and 2x 1.6 bans within a very short period of time in June/July 2023. On the surface I can accept this does not paint a great picture and would reflect the kind of person that should not be welcome on the server however I feel it does not represent me as a person or the way I carried myself in the 2+ years prior to these bans.
I have appealed a number of times in the past which have all been instantly denied and I can understand why however I am hoping to be given one more chance as I know the positives I have brought to the server far outweigh all of the negatives towards the end of my time on RPUK.
Throughout my entire time on the server (give or take a month), I was a member of Vagos. I was one of the only members left standing a number of times and went through a number of rebuilds with the gang. I was asked and offered by plenty of people along to the way to move on and join other groups however something kept me in yellow which then obviously led to the events that caused my multiple bans.
I will be honest, I feel i played a very important role within Vagos and if it hadn't been for my influence and way of leading the group over the years, the gang would not have survived as long as it did and plenty of people would have received more bans and bans a lot sooner than they eventually did. I felt responsible for Vagos on the server which is what led to me being in the gang for so long and I felt without my influence it would fail and die.
I know a lot of well known and influencial people would vouch for me prior to my bans and I was often told I should be doing something better than be a member of Vagos as it was clear the gang was only going to head in one direction however I didn't listen and a part of me thought I could steer the gang in the right direction and ensure it was a positive presence on the server. This was certainly the case in the early days as we enjoyed some great RP with other gangs and groups... Multiple storylines that I still talk about to this day involving Apostles and others as well as just general meetings and all the little things that made each day different. Over time the mentality of the gang as a whole changed and although I certainly did try, Vagos became a gang with the attitude of I don't really care anymore and adopted a "frag & bully" mentality.
Regarding the final nail in my ban coffin, the discord message that was leaked to staff. To this day I can still say with 100% confidence that it was never my intention to be in any way racist, toxic or insulting to staff behind their back. It was a message sent in bad judgement to bait someone out who was leaking our discord messages. I had no intention to ever cause any upset to anyone and I can honestly say I have no bad feelings towards RPUK Staff and I never have. I have had plenty of good interactions and conversations with staff in the past and it's simply not in my nature to insult people that I simply do not know.
I am open to discuss the details regarding my numerous bans further if any questions would like to be put forward. I guess the final thing to say is why should I actually be unbanned after everything on my record? The honest answer is I probably shouldn't. People may have been banned for longer for a lot less however I hope that this appeal can go towards showing that I am not the person that my RPUK bans portray and can start me on the path to redeeming myself in the eyes of the staff on the server. The urge to jump onto RPUK still comes to me often and to be honest I have no intention of returning to the kind of play style that I used to have. I don't want to be involved in gangs or politics or anything of the sort. I would much prefer to return and just enjoy spending time with friends on the server how it was when I first started. On that note I would be happy if my character had an F6 joining cooldown, if my cars/inventories/money were all wiped. I honestly don't care. I would just be happy to play again as Jason Barnes and be given another chance on the server.
Thanks again for reading this and I hope we can discuss things further in this thread.
