James Noell Hurt - PK Appeal - FrankKnight121 - 04-05-2024

Name of Character: James Noell Hurt

SteamID: STEAM_0:1:163338293

Your Discord ID#: cameraman_medic

Date of PK: 04-04-2024

Reason for PK: I was being mugged at gunpoint and asked to drop my custom suit. I thought there was a rule stating these items could not be stolen, so I said it was an unmuggable item and refused to drop it, causing the mugger to kill me. I was wrong and misinformed on this. I am hoping to get my PK appealed as I thought a server rule was being broken by the person who was robbing me.

Why should you be unPK'd? What server rule or PK rule was violated?: As stated before I was misinformed about the rules and I just hope I can possibly get some grace because of this. 

If possible please provide video evidence or photo evidence if PK does not follow the guidelines: No footage available.

+1 I was one of the people evolved in this and got my friend to help out, I didn't have any real intention to Pk or really mug this guy at all. Since my character got fired from him and it was essentially an empty slot I was gonna hold him hostage and jump off world corp. I went to Dante, told him about what we were gonna do, only mistake is I said "mug" instead of I guess "Hold him hostage". This guys character is years old and this shouldn't be the end to it.

Mugging Rule 6.

You may only kill the victim if they DO NOT comply with your demands. Victims that comply are to be left unharmed.
-Likewise you may only make realistic demands, this means you can’t demand something unrealistic that the victim cannot deliver in order to kill them.
-This includes asking them to drop sums of cash they don't have, or ordering them to drop items from their inventory, as the mugger you are responsible for bringing the necessary restraints to steal items with. Forcing users to drop clothes/items because you're unable to tie them is not pk'able


As stated it is the mugger's responsibility to bring ties to have access to the player's inventory as well as the command to forcefully strip them of their clothing. Forcing them at gunpoint to drop items and being met with refusal is not PK'able as the scenario could consitute powergame.
