Diego_Riverva (151) - VDM, Trae_Realis (85) - DM

[Astrx]

Player(s) being reported: 151, 85
Date of interaction reported: 16/MAY/2023
Unix time stamp from HUD: 1684201880

Your character name: Shawn Goodwin
Other player(s) involved: N/A

Specific rule(s) broken:

Non-Roleplay (Non-RP)

Non-Roleplay behaviour is considered as actions that are unrealistic or promote poor quality roleplay.

Deathmatching (DM)

Deathmatching is the act of attacking a player without proper IC motive and interaction. Prior interaction should include escalation such as a robbery or a report to the police.

How did the player break the rule(s)?  (300 words maximum)\
I do not believe these two players were acting together to start with. I was running to the city from DOC as I had been released, whilst running I was slapped by ID 151 using a Semi-Truck going 150km/h minimum, he then proceeds to just drive away showing it was purposeful, he swerved into me and then swerved away when he hit me, continuing to drive away.

Around 1 minute later whilst calling MD ID 85 pulled up in an Astron and parked next to me, proceeding to make stupid talk whilst he robs me because I am injured. (This is awful roleplay in my opinion where he planned on driving away after). MD responded to my call and I said "you down bad" to ID 85 where he just proceeded to fully kill me for little to no reason.

I checked his pockets and didn’t take anything, so I was going to take him to the hospital. Until he said sum smart and I finished him, that is my ic reason. Though I wasn’t aware that DM applied to the downed state. Since the player didn’t lose anything of value, I don’t see this report necessary and could have been solved in-game rather than fill the forums.

Losing items shouldn't be a prerequisite for being able to report someone. The rules were broken and I was affected by it. Hence the report.

I was looking at my phone coming around that corner and didnt mean to hit you, I should have stopped to call an ambulance but I was on my way home to log out and go to sleep- it was wayyyy past my bedtime. I apologize. I was not involved with the second dude who came and robbed/killed you tho - im just a shitty driver. I literally stalled out around the corner, you could see me swerving at the end of the vid

REPORT ACCEPTED
―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
 

After reviewing this report and evidence attached to it, we've decided to accept this report and issue the punishments to the following player(s):

• Trae_Realis (85) - Deathmatching  - Finishing off a player after with nearly zero escalation

 

Upon reviewing the footage provided we can see Diego_Rivera hit Shawn_Goodwin with his truck on the side of the highway. With the provided footage we are unable to determine without a shadow of a doubt prove that Diego_Rivera intentionally hit Shawn_Goodwin. We will be giving Diego_Rivera the benefit of the doubt that he was just distracted and not paying attention and accidently hit Shawn_Goodwin. Thus they will not be receiving any form of punishments from this situation. We can however during the footage witness Trae_Realis arrive on the scene and begin to rummage through Shawn_Goodwin's pockets. Clearly annoyed Shawn_Goodwin says "you down bad" and then is almost instantly finished off by Trae_Realis.

 

We have determined that Trae_Realis had very little in character reason and escalation to finish off Shawn_Goodwin. While Shawn_Goodwin did say "you down bad" we did not believe this warranted him being fully finished off. In order for a character to have deathmatching rights they need proper reason and escalation to do so. A one off statement from the reporting party is not that in the slightest.  In the future please make sure you have proper motive and escalation to finish off another player. 

 

If you have received a punishment that you disagree with, feel free to file a punishment appeal following the punishment appeal guidelines and format. If the reporting party suffered a loss greater than $25,000 in value, feel free to file a refund request following the refund request guidelines and format.  

 

This report will now be locked and archived.
