Unban Appeal for Pinkskyxx 

In-game Name: Charlotte Lowe

Server: GTA RP

Steam ID: 76561199126408894

Ban ID: !!rpuk11769!!

Reason given for your ban: https://www.roleplay.co.uk/topic/144108-report-a-player-charlotte-nsc-gta-rp/#comment-822657

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: I was banned on 14/02/2023 for combat logging. At the time NSC were in ongoing conflict with Grove and on the day of my offense there was a fight at the beach front parking where I had machine issues which forced me to reset my device and log back in.

For whatever reason, when I returned I had spawned at my previous spawn location which was Vespucci PD and not at the beach location where I had originally quit the game.
When I had returned it appeared the situation as the beach had ended and I made no attempt to contact any Grove members which resulted in my ban.

As for why I didn't contact Grove or make a staff ticket at the time, it simply had not crossed my mind.
I know this is not a good excuse and doesnt excuse what I done in general as I had a similar issue a few days before and raised a ticket with staff who told me just make sure I speak to staff again in the future so I should have known better.

I didn't avoid contacting to save my items, or at the time I didn't think so but if I am being honest I probably thought that because of the previous issue, that it wasnt my fault so I shouldn't have to do anything about it but again, this is not the right mind set to have and I know I need to ensure that I rectify any situation like that as although it could not be helped, it changes the outcome of the situation and effects roleplay for all involved, not just me.

As for how I ended up back at Vespucci PD when I disconnected/reset my machine at the Beachfront Parking, I cant say. A friend thinks that because of how the connection ended abruptly the server didn't get to save my last known location and defaulted back to the previous one that it had. Wether or not that's the case, I have no idea.

Why should we unban you ?: I would like the oportunity to prove to staff and others within the city that this was a one off and will not happen again.

I was told on the report that I could put in an appeal before the 1 month cooldown and staff would make a decision on wether or not I had to wait or it would be dealt with there.

At the time of the report I tried to defend my actions as I genuinely didnt believe I had done wrong. After chatting with staff and some friends I now realise that what I did was combat logging as I was removed from a situation and didnt return which prevent the roleplay scenario from running its course and for this reason I decided to wait the 1 month cooldown time as I felt this was just in my case.

I hope you consider my appeal and accept my apologies to both staff and the members of Grove who were effected by this.

Hope to hear from you soon, thanks

Please confirm that you have read the unban appeal process and rules: Yes

 
Hello there @Pinkskyxx
I hope we're doing well! 

We see each other once again, I am surprised you didn't take my offer on the report a player which was; 
Now when you appeal, I'll let the staff dealing with your appeal decide if they want to follow the 1 Month Cooldown before appealing it, or taking your appeal there n then. 

I'm both surprised and happy at the same time. 
Now onto the appeal thank you for putting as much effort as you did.

In the future what would you do if this happens again?
Give me two examples how you could deal with this issue in the future.

I had a further dig into this like stated before, it is unlikely that this has happened, but, "never say never" - would apply to this I guess.

I believe you died to police as well and lost your equipment, obviously I will be making sure that is the case. 
It does indeed change the outcome of the situation drastically and effects the roleplay for all parties involved / parties that could have been involved. 

Can you quote the rule you broke, explain it in your words and why it exists in the first place. 

In the mean time I recommend re-reading our rules linked here:

Thank you for the effort and time you put into this appeal.

Hi mike, thank you for your time for replying to my ban appeal,

Firstly I would open a discord ticket to notify staff that i would be coming back and i would put it in the discord channel to reach whoever i was in a RP situation with if i cant get back into city straight away, when i got back into city i would make it a priority to write in OOC to resume the RP. 

The rule I broke was (C2.3) Combat logging, when logging/quitting the game to get out of the RP situation,  or tempting to save your items to give you the advantage on the other player which isn't fair, I believe this rule is in place to make it fair when people are RPing incase someone tries to save themselves losing out on stuff/ not lose anything.

 
Hello @Pinkskyxx
Sorry for the late reply, have been busy, I hope you're doing well today! 

In the future, if any technical issues happen, please make a ticket immediately/let the other party know, can be on phone if you've discord on phone for example! - Or messaging a friend on steam to inform the other party your PC died, there was an emergency, etc-etc.  (Better than nothing
The main reason your ban was placed was because you took no steps to make the other party know, which arguably made your case look even worse. 

I will be unbanning you and giving you a second chance, the unban should take full effect immediately. 
However any rule break in the upcoming 6 months of the original ban will end up being permanent. 

Have a re-read before you join the server.
