Your characters name: Jay Gamble

Other player(s) involved: N/A

Specific rule(s) broken:

9. Metagaming (MG)

• Metagaming is the act of relaying IC information through any method not considered IC that has the potential to change current or future roleplay scenarios or using that information. 

• Mixing IC and OOC information without any benefit is a minor MG offense. For example, a player uses IC chat to call someone by their player ID displayed above their head.

How did the player break the rule(s)?

Was a small verbal argument at the bank, before we leave, this guy continues to pester us. As he's speaking to us, we can hear another person in his background directing his RP.

Hello there, it is ID 63, I can't see any Metagaming here. Furthermore the one that you can hear in my background is my friend he was at my house that time. In addition to that I can't see any MG, because I can't really see myself mixing IC information to OOC or either of that.

 I have just said "You wanna step outside" that's it literally.

Hello and thank you for quick reply.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on this one, when I first watched the video it looked like a clear case of Metagaming, however after reviewing it few times and asking advice from other Staff Members we have come to a conclusion that your both regional accents are very similar/identical so I believe that you had a friend over in your house. In the future please avoid such altercations as it can only get you in trouble.

Regards,

faiN.
