Your in-game name: Alexus Cortez

Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:110214403

Your steam community link: https://steamcommunity.com/id/miko_avi/

Date of ban: 08/11/2022 | 01:27:53

What is your exact ban reason (shows when you try to connect): MRDM | FailRP

Who banned you: Moha Demi Brekker (STEAM_0:1:608777015)

Ban length?: 2 weeks

What server were you banned on?: (SCP-RP UK or SCP-RP USA): UK

Link a copy of the in-game rules here (the url): https://www.civilgamers.com/community/threads/scp-rp-rules.2244/

What will you do to stop this from happening again: Avoid using Enhanced Armoury weapons against other players, I wasn't aware of what equipment came under that category beforehand as I'd never seen it before.

Prior to this, have you ever been warned/kicked/banned? I have one other warning for NLR as a civ.

Why should you be unbanned: I don't think I should be unbanned but at least have the duration reduced; some of us Class Ds broke out and got given CI equipment (specifically the Matador) so I used it to take out myself along with 4-5 other people around me. Mod took me to the staff room and banned me, he did say in OOC prior we "cant use AA on humans" but I genuinely didn't see that or know what it meant until after I was already banned. I get the reasoning for the ban, just think it was a bit harsh for being my first offence & lack of awareness.

How can you ensure that you won't break any other rule?: I've read over the rules more carefully and understand what weapons/equipment are/aren't allowed for use, wasn't trying to break any rules as it was honestly just a suicide bit to get rid of the weapon. Plus it was pretty late at night with little players on & no RP happening but I understand that isn't an excuse to break the rules.

Why do you want to rejoin this server?: I used to play on an old SCP-RP server that got shut down years ago, found this one recently and been enjoying the same vibe but I'm still getting familiar with some different rules (Class Ds having guns in the first place).
 
Hello @miko ,

Thank you for taking the time to make this complaint.

On that night there have been multiple D-class with matadors and after seeing that I announced in OOC and in other command that announce stuff in the middle of the screen, that Using AA Against humans is not allowed and even specified that Matadors are only to be used against vehicles. what you did was look in the ground in shoot a matador killing yourself and many other humans which you didn't have a reason to do when half of the people were disguised D-Class and non-disguised D-class. which is Fail RP and Mass RDM, After explaining the punishment to you I issued the 2 weeks ban.

Hope this clears everything and have a good day

Kind Regards
Moha Demi

Thank you for the response, to be clear I do fully understand why I was banned but other than the one line in the SCP-RP rulebook about using Enhanced Armoury equipment, there are no warnings or signs around the armoury in-game stating the weapons can't be used on players, which is especially confusing for new players who aren't familiar with them considering how easy they are to access (weapons laying on the ground behind a CL2 door which anyone can break into).

I rewatched the footage I saved and only then saw the messages in OOC about not using AA but even if I'd noticed at the time, I had no idea what that meant as it's sorta vague for newer players unfamiliar with the term. If the weapons are such high contraband, you would expect them to be removed from you upon first sight or inappropriate use.

Our reason in RP was that we hated our lives in the facility and wanted to take out as many personnel as possible in revenge, several of us disguised Class Ds in the blast were fully aware of the plan before it happened. It would probably have been a grenade had we known the Matador wasn't allowed, but I understand now there was definitely a better way around it.

Appeal Accepted

Hi @miko ,

Thanks for taking the time to make a ban appeal.

After reading the appeal and the fact you have served a week already of your ban, I believe it is reasonable that you have learned from your mistake, as you have stated you have read the rules, I am willing to unban you, however I will not be removing the ban from your record.

Kindest Regards,
Yeke​
