Your Steam Name: Dan makingtosh
Your Roleplay Name: Dan Giggle
Your SteamID: 76561199118086842

Why were you punished?: 3.4 | User ignored gunpoint from 4-5 officers for an extended period of time, running around in circles, and repeatedly spam entering & exiting their vehicle until finally surrendering after a massive time waste

Why should this appeal be considered?: all of the cops there where my freinds and we was just messing about and i was not warented or being arrested at all when those extra cops showed up i thought they where messing around with us i didnt think that it would get out of control when the other officers showed up not knowing they wasnt messing when i was arrested i was then let go with no charges at all

[Not involved] Even if the other officers allowed it, I am pretty sure a dispute would not be the correct type of appeal. With a dispute you are trying to prove that you did not violate a rule. If you want to make the justification that the officers were in on the joke (and therefore want your ban to be lowered/lifted), then having this be a ban apology would make more sense.

involved as one of the 3 original officers on scene, i had fun and dont mind having my time "wasted", i dont think he deserves that long of a ban; but yea might be better as an apology

I was involved in the situation and I didnt mind my time being wasted like fatgirllover and the situation was pretty funny. I think that 1 month ban is a little exessive

Messing around in itself is something we all do from time to time; however, when we decide to mess around, it is our responsibility to ensure that others do not get caught up in our actions.

In this case, it is clear that there was no second thought regarding the choice of location or the consideration of people viewing this in public. Selecting a place such as the one shown here in the middle of the city, in front of the Police Department, and in one of the busiest parts of the map, is simply not a smart move. You are bound to get other players involved.
