Unban Appeal - Matt Winter - GTA RP

[Matt Winter]

Unban Appeal for Matt Winter 

In-game Name: Matt Winter

Server: GTA RP

Steam ID: 76561199059191612

Ban ID: !!!rpuk11103!!

Reason given for your ban: G3.1

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: So, me and my friend started playing on this project about 2 days ago. We were getting really sick of other RP servers as they are consistently full of people breaking rules that completely ruin RP. My friend recommended this server to me and me and Wong Mcgee, (my friend I started playing with) were loving this project. We met some dealers from the start and started making money. The UK mods made the server so much better and we were grinding to make money. Today, we had brought a kilo of cocaine from a dealer and wanted to go and cut it. I knew a spot however there were people around so we wanted to go somewhere else. My friend said to me he knew a spot and placed a waypoint. He then explained he found it in a YouTube video he watched. This whole time my mind had gone blank and fully forgot that we were metagaming. We arrived and saw nothing, so I told him to check the video and then he found it. It's such a stupid thing we did and I wish I never made that mistake. I would never have deliberately ruined RP to benefit myself and I am really really sorry. I was really enjoying the server and would be thankful if I was given another chance on this great project.

Why should we unban you ?: The rule states: Permanent Ban, so it should be permanent. I completely understand if I am rejected for this, as a role player, I would appreciate an unban so I can continue my RP on this project and have some fun (while still following the rules). I understand I should still receive a punishment so I am happy if you are even to remove my ban and re ban me for a timed period. I am also willing for you to take away all the drugs etc I could have used for my advantage of metagaming. Once again, I am extremely sorry for what I have done. All the best,
- Matt.

So,

You say that you're sick of other RP servers which are full of consistent rule breakers and that it completely ruins not only yours but others RP. 

- Why did you do it?

If you this 'big roleplayer', why would you try to gain an advantage over other players through OOC means via a YouTube video rather than roleplaying with others to find out this information?

- How can we trust you in the future, that you won't not only watch YT videos to gain an advantage, but you've crossed this line. You could potentially, cross the other line of letting your mates know where you are if you were to be downed in the future.

- I was looking for an area of a drug lab with my friend and he said he knew a location. We headed there and then he mentioned it was a YouTube video. I told him to check the video again and we found it. (Pure Metagaming).
I'm not going to lie and make up some bullshit story on why I did it. I'm going to be honest: I don't know why I did it. Things were happening fast and I just responded to him. As soon as I realised it was metagaming, it was too late. I didn't deliberately make this option. If really wanted to metagame, I would have said it in a private call and not where an admin can hear me. The fact I'm writing this appeal, patient and not rushing anyone shows I care and I genuinely am sorry for what I have done.

- After this, I would not risk being done for metagaming again - or even break any other rules. I definitely wouldn't metagame to any of my friends as they don't want to ruin RP either. My friend that I originally did this with is upset about the situation so believe me, it will not happen again. You have probably heard it all before, and my word probably doesn't mean much to you but I'm not going to tell you how to view me as that is out of my control.

If you trust me, I would appreciate a second chance. Thanks.

Okay,

I am willing to give you another shot, I hope we don't see you back here for another rule break.

Please roleplay going forward as if you did not come across this YT video nor the processing facility.
