Why I Should Be Unbanned: In this situation, I shot a suspect who teleported back to me after I arrested him because I accidentally left him “held.” My intention was not to harm or diminish this player roleplay experience but to ensure that he was reset into a cell - something that I have done for months without issues and that I have confirmed with at least two moderators in the past was acceptable to do, although rules may have changed - Furthermore, technically my offenses did not violate any rules. Per the Perris Rulebook, I followed all sections under “Law Enforcement Roleplay.” I acted (by killing the suspect) to ensure that he was jailed correctly and to prevent further issues with him being unattended in the booking area, as I was unable to place him in a cell. (I had tried to open the cells before, but for some reason, I couldn’t. This may have changed, but I haven’t been able to open the cells in the past.) Leaving him unattended in the booking area would have probably led to a separate report for him, as he was distraught with me arresting him, which brings me to my next point.
The report against me seems to have stemmed from frustration rather than a legitimate concern about rule violations. During this incident, the suspect repeatedly insulted me, calling me “dumb as a rock” and “stupid” on multiple separate occasions. The suspect called for staff twice for “FRP” and violated NLR by returning after a previous scene involving him had ended with his death. His use of the “!help” command twice seemed more disruptive to the RP than my actions did at the end when the RP was over.
To counter the RDM point, my actions were not RDM. It had served a specific purpose of resetting the suspect in jail due to the game mechanics not allowing me to open the cells (in the past, it had not; again, I don’t know if it has changed now). This approach to killing him did not diminish his roleplay experience, nor did it “hurt” anyone. He was already in jail, and resetting him made sure that he would be in a jail cell. It was meant to be done outside of RP.
To confirm the TA (tool abuse or team abuse, I’m not sure), the Perris Rulebook does not state TA (whether it be tool abuse or team abuse) in it; therefore, I’m not sure how I violated one of these rules, as I did not know what defined it.
I know that this seems like such an obvious violation, but my reasoning for killing him is very straightforward, and I believe that he only reported me because he was upset that he was being arrested.
