  1. Once again, my car was a rusty Futo, it wasn't us "slamming into it" we caused almost no additional damage to the car and zero damage to the truck. I have done this exact thing with a track car in real life and in my opinion the admin was just on a power trip considering everyone was being perfectly respectable with them and they immediately started threatening us and going for punishments. I have seen admins behave very differently with certain groups of people doing much less innocent activities and am using this as a specific example of a situation where merit and good "roleplay intentions" should overrule an already subjective take on the server guidelines.
  2. The construction worker was not currently on the job as they had finished the site already and my car was on their trip back. This situation does not classify as a "pit maneuver". It was on my own car which I had asked him to do for something other than to cause damage. As I said I have done a similar thing in real life taking great care not to damage the work truck and funnily enough the head of the project had the idea so I am arguing that point "quickly be fired". Yes the administrator basically implied "because I said so" and looking at the official rules I still don't think this qualifies as any failRP especially given the appropriate "Roleplay" context and additional "acting" we put into it. The purpose of my post isn't to ask the question of "if" it is failRP it is to push for the idea that respectable roleplay scenarios like this shouldn't be punished by administration so harshly. Yes I get it, that isn't the "intended purpose" for a spawned work truck but neither is driving the crew to the bank or other places after a job, which I have seen many times go unpunished. 10 miles an hour, on the shoulder, hazards on, pushing a disabled car for a stranded guy on the side of the road for a couple minutes while not causing any damage? I feel the context allows for wiggle room if it is kept respectable. The idea is to have a "realistic, respectable, and enjoyable experience" here and I feel this specific situation falls under that. If I can't question admin's decision in a respectable forum post, then why even offer community rule suggestions? Further clarification is that we listened to the demands by administration and never continued doing that behavior and I instead brought it here for discussion. My bigger issue was the admin's "My way is right and no explanation other than my own (highly subjective) opinion will do and I will use every ounce of my ability to enforce it, even on new players" Using that mentality on such a small, and in my opinion innocent, instance is objectively toxic for the community. At least quote the actual rule he is enforcing, he legitimately made the server administration look reactive, abusive and unprofessional with the way he handled the situation in my opinion. This is intended as a post by a "community member" trying to make an argument of a specific scenario that was punished by administration which highlights negative "kill-joy" type mentality which hurts servers like this.
  3. Here is a hypothetical for a roleplay scenario that I was punished for by an in-game admin: You have your car disabled on the side of a freeway, you have requested mechanic services 3 times and waited for 20 minutes each time between pushing your car. Totaling almost two hours of be stranded and pushing your car. A roadside worker pulls by and offers to help push you near the mechanic to get repairs (There are mechanics online but are either not responding to roadside or are AFK). The roadside worker truck has a utility bumper and a real life example is when my friends and I would recover our disabled track cars by pushing them (with some soft materials to prevent scraping on the bumper of the company utility truck) and having someone steer the disabled car. I was roleplaying this and having fun with a new friend and an admin threatened us saying it was "failrp". I disagree if we are actually roleplaying a realistic scenario. Also take into account we had our hazards on, were on the side of the road and were explaining this to interested people passing us. Do you think that was unrealistic and also severe enough to be threatened by administration? The admin said that this was specifically against the "server rules" but did not clarify how other then the notion "because I said so".
