Player(s) being reported: 217
Date of interaction reported: 06/06/2021
Unix time stamp from HUD: 1622932700

Your character name: Peter_Rastafish
Other player(s) involved: 

Specific rule(s) broken:

9. Non-Roleplay (NRP)

• Actions that are unrealistic or promote poor quality roleplay are considered as non-roleplay.

8. 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. 

How did the player break the rule(s)?  (300 words maximum)
I drove past a police officer on a bike but I did not realise he was a police officer, he was wearing green so at first I believed he was in the Irish gang, the officer followed me into the drug location, he didn't really speak much but just lingered about. As I left the place he attempts to pull me over, I assume for my pistol and calls me out by my name which I thought was odd considering I believe I have never interacted with this officer although I may be wrong.

I drive away and later I get a call from him through the phone saying that charges have been added to my record and I should hand myself in, I then PM'd him to ask how he knew my name as I currently believe that he checked the license plates of my BF400, which ICly there are no license plates, I asked him through PM's to see if he could verify whether or not he did abuse this and he was being stubborn and not giving me an answer which makes me believe more that he broke the rules and got my info through abuse.

 

I am genuinely just here to seek the clarification as I do not want to serve in character time for a rulebreak, therefore I am here to check. This could have been resolved had ID 217 not been so stubborn and difficult.

I would just like some form of proof that he had me aliased and did not infact abuse the feature of checking a BF400s license plates. If not I want the charges dropped at the minimum
