Unban Appeal - RubenTheMaker - GTA RP


Server: GTA RP
Character Name: Coston Breamer
Steam ID: 76561197960287930
Ban ID (just the numbers): 18529
Ban Reason: C2.2 - Exploiting
Why do you think you were banned: Previous appeal - https://www.roleplay.co.uk/threads/unban-appeal-rubenthemaker-gta-rp.426735/

I was placing boxes on the road in front of Pillbox in hopes that people that were speeding would crash into the boxes at high speeds due to the boxes being physical and frozen when placed. I was doing this by dropping any item on the road so that it'll place one of the boxes. I was not intending on using this glitch to my advantage (by stealing people's cars for example) and was simply doing it to troll people for no reason and thought that so long as I took them into Pillbox - it was fair game. Not only did I think that that so long as I took them to Pillbox - it was ok to do this but because this is a old glitch - I felt even more assured that this wasn't a bannable offense.
Why should we unban you: I now realize that this was not only a dumb move but a also falsely achieved confidence in thinking I was allowed to do these things. I thought it was just a funny troll at the time but I completely neglected:

the fact that people can lose illegal items at Pillbox if they are brought in with illegal items - causing an unfair situation for the victim as they either need to make a comp request or getting those things back which both are costly for time and also costly to get back the items,

that even if they don't die with illegal items, taking a trip to Pillbox can take lots of time to finish - causing an unfair situation for the victim as they are getting forced into this situation and means that they aren't able to continue their roleplay experiences because of me,

the fact that even if they don't die, repairing their cars, using a med kit and trying to leave the scene/pick up the dropped items to remove the boxes takes time for a situation that shouldn't exist in the first place - causing an unfair situation for the victims as I would just be wasting their time and postponing their roleplay.

At the time I ignored these facts because I really wanted to troll but in no way was this a way to purposely get myself banned. I've played this server for a good couple of years and I intend to keep playing it if allowed. I do apologize for my actions and will take extra precautions not to ruin anyone else's roleplay. Thank you for your time.

Hello @RubenTheMaker

Let's put the exploiting factor aside and focus on what your intentions were that day.
- You had the intention to not provide anybody with any serious form of role play, to troll others and cause grief to total strangers for no other reason other than your own enjoyment in their misery. Why?

And why would we unban you, to resume playing on a serious role playing server, if you're a troll?

I thought it would be as simple as a funny troll that (so long as I took the victims to Pillbox) everyone would find somewhat funny. It completely slipped my mind that people could lose illegal items in Pillbox. Admittedly, I knew I that it wasn't fair to assume that everyone would find it funny and that I would be getting in the way of people's roleplay but I thought it was something I couldn't get in trouble for because it is an old glitch. I understand that this situation is considered trolling and by all means it is, but it's the first time I've done something like this and it's not something I plan on replicating/experiencing again either. I wasn't thinking straight at the time and prioritised funny moments over people's roleplay experience with a falsified confidence that I couldn't get in trouble for it. It was not an act of "I'm bored of this server so I'm going to get myself banned with an additional cost of people's misfortune and anger" but just a really dumb move I wish I could go back and avoid. I do apologise.
 
@RubenTheMaker

I can see that there was a few of you doing this... who taught who what to do and how to do it?
No one really taught us, it's been quite a while so I don't really recall how we found this glitch but I do know that we found it from just driving around and crashing into a box that someone randomly placed down which then gave us the idea - something along those lines. It was just me and 1 other guy though, the third guy that was with us never placed any and he's been unbanned ever since.

I hope, and trust that you now understand the severity of your actions - that trolling people of a cheap laugh is simply put unacceptable, and toxic behavior.
Understand that your record reflects poorly at this time, since the warnings you have, are also of the similar, trollish nature - Loitering, unrealistic driving times two.

I hope this ban is sufficient for the word "serious roleplay" to hit home, because another ban in succession to this, within a six months period, will award you another permanent ban status as per 'FBS'.

If you are banned again before, or during the following year (2025) for exploiting, the door will be shut for six months following that ban before you'll be allowed to appeal again.

Don't waste this golden opportunity I give you.

Unbanned
