Why should you be unbanned?
I never intended to break rules, and at the time I didn't believe that what I was doing was against the rules.
Mass Char Abuse:
I reached out to Moses and Canadian Bacon for Clarification on Mass Char abuse as I've never heard or seen it in the rules or in game. Moses believed the situation I described was not Character Abuse, Canadian told me Character abuse can take many forms and it's up to the context of the situation what is or isn't considered character abuse.
The situation surrounding the Char abuse was this. I was chilling at city hall and noticed some people who I had known threw names(F3s). I was chilling and then they approached me asking for weapons. I had previously sold weapons to them and had a large surplus of them in my bank so I decided to give some Bars, Mac11s and a few pistols, as i don't need 40 bars.
Afterwards I had swapped characters and watched them go around for a bit and decided to approach them and ask to join their “Gang”. I had my own weapons and didn't touch anything my other characters had. I then proceeded to join them in their activities which included street racing and Mugging. I never intended to break rules and was just trying to rp and have a good time on a boring morning instead of grinding shipments.
Mass Mugging
In regards to mass mugging, I only mugged around 2-3 people over the span of 1-2 Hours. There were multiple situations that were not muggings in which I pulled out a gun due to people running over my friends, pulling a weapon on my friends, Crashing into our car, driving towards us with a vehicle etc.
These were not Muggings as I never intended to rob these people and drew my weapon in self defense, the defense of my friend and for valid RP reasons. I understand that us drawing weapons on someone for crashing into our car, can seem like a mugging but it was clearly not, and we rped out the situation getting them to pull over as they had damaged our car, shooting someone for shooting at our friend, chasing after them in a car, etc.
Additional Information (images, videos, etc): Relevant Rules / DMs
Mass Mugging
You may mug one person / singular group of people every 15 minutes. Mugging again immediately, before allowing the timer to expire will be considered Mass Mugging. Realistically you must lay low after mugging someone.
