Richard_Jarvis [38] - Deathmatch

[xSuki]

Player(s) being reported: ID 38
Date of interaction reported: 13/5/2022
Unix time stamp from HUD:

Your characters name: Tyrone_Kingstone
Other player(s) involved: ID 21

Specific rule(s) broken:
14. Deathmatch (DM)

• Prior interaction should include escalation and poor reason for killing somebody.

How did the player break the rule(s)?I was working as a Road Worker and I while I was doing my job, ID 38 came and asked me "Are you really gonna do both of them ?". I wasn't sure about what he was speaking about then when he meant the job marker, which is not realistic, because IRL we don't have checkpoints on job, am I right? Then his friend came up and said "Lemme get it". I ignored them both, then he was threatening me that he'd stab me if I didn't do that and took out his knife. He said "I'm just joking" and I said I'll call the police as a joke and went away. He was able to see me while I was running to another checkpoint and where I continued with the work, but he decided to run towards me and instantly started with stabbing/kicking me while I'm doing checkpoint. At first, I tried to tell him that I'm not calling the police or anything like that, but he continued kicking. I think this is a very poor reason to kill someone and this is a very very poor escalation. This was not the place and time to rob/kill someone.

Evidence of rule breach: 

Evidence where I'm telling him to save POV.

I am ID 38, Richard Jarvis. 

I do feel that I gave appropriate escalation in this situation, I clearly threatened him multiple times and told him to get up off the job. Regarding the "jobs", this has nothing to do with OOC, as the telephone pole and the rubble are both "jobs" that need to be cleaned up. Again, after threatening, you threatened to call the police. This is escalation. I also spoke to a moderator about this incident, and explained it exactly how your video portrays it, and the moderator said that it was proper escalation if you were calling the police. You never mentioned you were kidding until after I started swinging, which at the point it was already escalated. I will attach proof of the moderator below, as I do not use recording software so I do not have a recording of my POV. I can state now that his video captures everything perfectly, and I believe that it shows my POV and the escalation perfectly. None of this had to do with robbery and nothing was going to happen to you until you escalated the situation. I believe that I initiated correctly and I wasn't planning on anything until he threatened to call police, therefore I believe I had appropriate escalation. Both screenshots are below.

Thank you for your patience as we reviewed this report. Following review of all evidence and provided statements, we have made the decision to accept this report and conclude it as follows:

Richard_Jarvis will be receiving a Deathmatching Punishment for the reported incident.

At the start of the clip, we can see the players working on an incident site. The reported player can be seen approaching the reporting player and telling him to leave as his friend will be working there. The reporting player can be heard saying "fuck off" which was followed by threats from the reported player and subsequently a knife was pulled. Shortly after, the reporting player said "I'm calling the police" which the reported player heard and told him to "chill", however, the call was not made and the player told him "I'm kidding". What's wrong with this situation is the lack of proper and reasonable escalation prior to attacking and stabbing the player. Per rules, players must have a valid reason to attack another player and there must be some form of escalation to warrant a life endangering/ending attack. In this situation, no proper escalation happened and no plausible threats were made by the reporting player. The 911 call was not made, and the crimes which were "Criminal Threats" and "Brandishing a Weapon" were minor. The player also made it clear that he was not calling 911, however, the reported player kept attacking him, even though he had ample time to acknowledge this. In conclusion, you had no reason to escalate this situation to deadly force, let alone not doing the scripted job as you should.
