Unban Appeal for Ronnie Rich 

In-game Name: Ronnie Rich

Server: GTA RP

Steam ID: 76561199163600727

Ban ID: !!rpuk7592!!

Reason given for your ban: (C2.3) Combat Logging

In your own words, please type why you think you were banned.: I was banned because I was in a car chase and managed to escape. At the time, I strongly believed that the combat was over and decided to leave the game because I had to do some stuff OOC. However, an admin was watching the situation live and classed it as combat logging.

Why should we unban you ?: I have attached the clip to show my perspective. I want to start off by saying that people usually combat log for two main reasons, the first reason is to save the things in their inventory and the second reason is to avoid an RP situation. I am going to be explaining why I don't believe this situation should be classed as combat logging.

Prior to the clip, me and Ritz were killed by the hustlers. They tried to use a defibrillator on both me and Ritz which didn’t work on Ritz, causing him to die and lose all of his items. The defib worked on me and the hustlers took me hostage and we had an enjoyable RP situation. I believe both parties provided high quality roleplay and even as a hostage, I was able to enjoy myself and was entertained at all times. They then killed me and dumped me.

About 5-10 minutes after respawning, I saw a hustler again but I had to roleplay as if I had lost my memory and that is exactly what me and Ritz were doing. The guy in the reaper followed us for 5 minutes until we lost him as shown in the clip. In my opinion, the combat situation was over and it was safe to leave the city because we could see that the reaper continued to go towards Paleto Bay and he would’ve never found us in the little warehouse that we hid in.

I had no reason to combat log because I had just respawned and had nothing in my inventory and I was not trying to “save” any items. I also had no reason to avoid RP with hustlers because of my previous encounter. As I have mentioned before, I found the hostage situation with the hustlers very entertaining and I would’ve enjoyed another scenario with them. Additionally, I understand the combat logging rule and the severity of it but I genuinely believed that the combat was over and if you watch my clip, you can see that we definitely lost the reaper and we went to a place where we would have never been found.
There was no reason for me to combat log and I would not risk a ban for breaking such a serious rule when I had no reason at all to combat log.
However if staff believe that what I did was combat logging, then I'd be all ears as to why it was.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

This is the clip (we lost him at 4:00): https://streamable.com/btytqp

So the clip you provided did you log off at the end of that clip? So you waiting approximately 1 minute to decide that the chase was over? Well the person knew where you was and you also happened to have been being spectated at the time. The fact you waited so little time after being involved in the chase makes me think you have just came up with this as an excuse. 

Why should we give you another chance?

 
After having a few days to reflect on my actions, I have noticed that I should have waited a few more minutes to completely ensure that the combat was over. At the time I genuinely believed that I was in the clear but after watching the clip, I have realised that 1 minute is too short. I also had the chance to speak to a staff member on Teamspeak and they were able to help me understand that what I did was wrong and I potentially stopped a RP scenario from occurring.

I believe I should be given another chance because I am able to use this as a lesson to improve my judgement of situations and I can put more thought into future situations to ensure that a rule break does not occur. I am relatively new to RP and the quality of my roleplay has been improving overtime, learning as I go along, and this ban can be used to further improve my knowledge and understanding of the rules and RP.

 
Please quote the rule that you broke and explain why we have that rule. 

 
(C2.3) Combat logging - Logging out at any point during RP is exploiting. Some examples of this include: logging out during a firefight, being chased by the police, arrested by the police, while dead awaiting a medic, logging out in order to save gear, rage-quitting, logging out whilst restrained/detained. Punishment is a permanent ban. Staff can make an informed decision depending on if you’ve made an attempt to resolve the issue. We do suggest you attempt to rejoin the server and continue the roleplay (try messaging them with the mobile system first).
 

This rule is in place to ensure that people don’t leave mid-RP to gain an unfair advantage. If this rule was not in place, people would be leaving all the time to potentially save the items in their inventory or to avoid RP situations. This would make the game very unfair and unenjoyable which is why this rule is one of the most important rule in my opinion. 

 
Whilst we have had multiple reports of you and a friend causing some issues on the server you seem to have handled yourself quite well on this appeal. For that reason and the fact you have no official bans or warning before this i am going to be unbanning you today. 

Please let this be a lesson, lets not see you here again because next time it will not be so easy for you. 

 
Welcome Back!

Now that you’ve been unbanned don’t forget to give our rules a thorough read over again here.

Please note unbans on the server are instant and you will be able to connect straight away.
