Your Steam Name: Combat man
Your Roleplay Name: Demontravius LeDarius
Your SteamID: STEAM_0:1:99050735

Why were you punished?: 2.5 - User killed a player who was not visibly armed on the exterior of regals because he thought he might be counter raiding.

Why should this appeal be considered?: Alright this is actually insane, got banned before i could even explain what happened, these dudes came with another guy that my friend already had killed, blocking off the main entrence to the SLUMS not regals which he also for some reason said but this whole thing happened by the rooftop at slums, it says they was not visibly armed but in the video he sent me in the F6 is literally a guy running around with a baseball bat out and another guy with an revolver which not seen in the clip he had brandished earlier so i knew they were packing, so its obvius i think theyre counter raiding when one guy already engaged in a firefight w my friend and these guys running up to the top floor and looking for me, and raiding with mele e weapons are now allowed so i had right to defend myself, they was walking into an active raid and they knew it why else would they had weapons and weapons out as well since they didnt live there.

Additional Information: I think this is really poor behaviour from the staff member because the reason literally states that they were not visebly armed but the clip he goddam sends me is them being VISIBLY ARMED. And it also says it happened by regals when it actually happened at slums, its clear he has no idea what hes doing.

I think it was more then clear they meant us harm since they were blocking off the main door with their van while that guy was armed, also was running up the stairs looking for me since i had ran away from them in the stairs making myself up to the roof to hold out, so i hear these guys in the clip talking and i peek the ledge and see one of them having a bat and saw earlier on other guy had an revolver of some kind, it was clear they didnt live there since they had been running up and down and even shows in the beggining of the clip one of them was standing still waiting by the door as if they was gonna break it down, and its allowed to melee raid now so me shooting him was fair game since he came in the company of the dude who was also blocking off door w their van, now taking all this into consideration i think its MORE then clear they was hostile and was actually trying to counter, so to say i killed someone who was not visibly armed is not true at all, i had a lot of proof they were counter raiding and even saw they WAS VISIBLY ARMED. They were also posing as threats since everything that had happened before that, the ban description is completely wrong and unfair, there was so much proof and i couldve told Rowley all of this if he didnt ban me so fast without allowing me to explain anything
