Reason given for your ban.
2.3
Which server are you banned from?
GTA RP
In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.
The main issue from what it seems to me was not allowing somebody to pick me up. It's a well known bug that after you are downed you cannot interact with the game through keyboard actions in any way shape or form and despite pressing enter on both buttons and attempting to press 'T' or /report to call for an admin surrounding the situation as to why I was downed and the others around me (RDM and VDM) it was clear to me that I couldn't give them what they wanted even if I wanted to. I had a standard pistol and a Taser on me which is peanuts and I'm not really bothered by the loss of face to a group I've not heard anything about.
However, an admin had responded to the situation and by this time a full on argument had ensued between the Peaky Blinders and the Morrisons parties and my voice was picked out of the crowd of downed individuals and I was banned immediately for 2.3 without conversation, and was shortly followed by the other Peaky Blinders for the exact same reason. Insults and threats were being thrown back and forth by both parties and the decision I would have opted for personally, would have been to separate both parties, investigate and then act according. However Robbie decided otherwise and thought the ban-hammer was the best approach prior to investigation and it then spilled out onto the Discord and finally into the Teamspeak.
Arguably the entire event could well have been avoided if the Morrisons party decided not to be so stabby and shoot-y and run over others when it probably wasn't needed, and then the choice of language on all sides could have been a little better chosen and not caused Robbie to enter the fray of words and get rid of what he deemed to be the party in the wrong.
Why should we unban you ?
Well, I'm in two minds on how to answer this question.
On one hand, I think it was a very brash decision to ban me and possibly a decision that wasn't given much thought to and happened a little too sudden without proper investigation as to what happened. Such an investigation may well have placed the Blinders in a much better light and possibly incriminated the Morrisons family for RDM/VDM. Alas, I feel like whatever answer I give won't be enough to change the approach towards me in how this situation is perceived let alone handled.
But on the other hand, I've poured my heart and soul into this server and I know a lot of people don't like me but those in my little family of individuals and underdogs and rapscallions make it all worth while. It's a shame that yet again, somewhere in a different camp the name Peaky Blinders was brought into a negative light and it happened to be the Morrisons bunch this time who decided on believing the rumours and attack us based on no prior conversation or even quizzing us on the allegations that were made and didn't fancy taking 'Don't know what you're on about, off you pop' as a feasible or even believable answer but that's all irrelevant now as it's been proven false. Despite all that, these lads that are part of our little corner of the community are there for each other through thick and thin. All the time I spend on here is with them and I wouldn't want to deprive myself of that and I don't think the staff should either.
The question why should we unban you is simply requesting for me to provide you with some sense of context about who I am and what I'm about but despite not spending any time talking to staff without it being centred around an issue in game and not when I'm off wherever doing what I do best and I don't mean sitting in Legion but when I'm out in the field with the lads, it seems almost impossible.
I feel like the process should be a lot more personal, organic and case-specific and I definitely feel like the staff should actively engage in 'all' corners of the community a lot more as it's their duty to observe and understand those around them. Unfortunately spending a number of months in this server, I'm sad to say I've seen almost none of that apart from one Mr Charles Vane who is a stand up guy and will always take time to talk to people and hear their side of things before he grabs the ban-hammer, and I wish everyone could be more like him.
To conclude, make your decision based on what you know of me and what I try to achieve despite all the obstacles and other's pre-conceptions. There's so much more I could do and so many ideas yet undiscovered and not discussed that plenty of the community would love and enjoy to have. I just wish there was a lot better communication between those empowered and the masses that make up your community.
