Received 60-day ban for a message interpreted as a threat; seeking clarification and showing regret for tone.
-----------------------------------------------------
I returned to the city after years away and had recently joined a gang. I was initially jailed (correctly) for leaving while cuffed, and accepted that.
Later, I was jailed for car ramming after a highway incident where another driver hit me twice — I barely tapped his car trying to follow him and ask why. I received 120 mins jail time, and while I tried to clarify, I was muted. I waited out 1hr 50 mins without issues.
At the end of that jail time, I messaged: "When I get out of jail, I'm going to buy a body cam and a 2TB SSD because you know I did nothing wrong." I was banned shortly after for 60 days for making threats and being disrespectful.
I can now see how that may have sounded sarcastic or hostile — and I regret my tone. My actual intent was to say I’d start recording gameplay to avoid future confusion. I was frustrated after sitting jailed for two hours, muted and unable to talk to my gang, but it wasn’t meant as a threat. I also did call someone “loser [name]” in frustration, which I admit was unnecessary and rude.
I apologise to the admin involved and anyone affected. I know you deal with hundreds of players, and I respect how tough that must be. I’ve since installed Medal and will record POV from now on. I accept I should have expressed myself more calmly, and I hope this can be reconsidered.
Thank you.
