Ban Appeal - lolwasdf - 02-12-2021
Your Name: John Quavious
Your SteamID (Click to retrieve): STEAM_0:0:425917178
Reason for ban: FailRP | Exploit | Previous Bans
Length of ban: 1 week, 3 days and 12 hours.
Reason for appeal (dispute/apology): Dispute
Why should you be unbanned?: I was banned because I did /fallover while being tased, which I thought would improve roleplay (because that's what happens when you get tased IRL) I should be unbanned because I don't feel that falling over while being tased is an exploit or failrp. In real life, you don't just stand still and stiffen up while being tased your entire body will fold and you will fall to the ground. Below I have linked a clip that shows many examples of what being tased is actually like and none of those include standing still frozen, the only time you will see that happen after a taser is shot at someone is if it doesn't make good contact with them.

You failed to mention that this isn't the first time you have done this. I banned you previously for the same reason and you know not to do this. The reason for falling over is to avoid getting arrested or getting stunned from the taser. Police can't tase you if you are fallen over, which is your goal. You are covering it up just by saying it is like real life. This is a video game not real life, there are reasons why you are stunned after being tased. PD can actually arrest people without needing to pull out a weapon if you are stunned because you can't be restrained while somebody is moving. The length is reasonable for the previous warnings/bans you have.

I was trying to give the cop some actual action and criminal vs police RP I wasn't attempting to stop him from tasing me. You still get tased even after falling over if they've already hit the taser prongs. Nothing I did was an exploit because if this was an exploit pendred or any other dev would have patched it a while ago.

+1 The argument is made this isn't real life this is gmod. The whole goal is to make it like real life or as realistic as possible.. It's a new sort of RP, and makes it less boring. If the RP is the exact same every single time it's gonna make the RP stale and cause it to die out.
