I honestly expected this to happen to me seeing as how biography's are public. I do wish to note here as well that Maxwell Hartman and I got along well BEFORE I made my biography for my character. Even to far as having some personal discussions with him and based off my experience with him, I know he crawls the forums/discord and reads almost everything. Tickets, complaints, suggestions, biographys. Nothing wrong with it as I did when I had access to discord. Until I started to suspect him of having read my bio and started to change his behavior around and towards me the moment I had posted that biography. Along with all the stuff I am about to explain, I am almost positive Maxwell Hartman used out of character information to influence his decision making IC and start suspecting me, in hopes to catch me, because I assume he read my biography.
Ever since I was taken in and hired on by Trey into SAHP on the 14th of April. I was always doing great on duty and active, had a great time with the guys and there was no issues, was friends with everyone and interactive with one another, as explained was even on good terms with maxwell (he even came to me for suggestions on photo advice) . Fast forward to Papi Gordo taking chief positions and everyone is discussing about how they are being promoted and how I was going to be to. I was happy and felt honored as I never asked or did I, at the time, believe I was fit for it but I settled into the spot and it was perfect for me. I didn't want to go any higher and it felt very much suited to how I was, always wanted to try and allow the other members to have a good time and do their job, can't be done when there's no one around that is able to teach, direct and rearm units professionally. I was doing well but I realized I couldn't find an incentive to push myself further so I took to the biographs for our characters and decided to be a crooked cop, to add more to my RP. I just wanted to have fun.
The moment this was submitted and up public for all to see, I immediately noticed the change in a few of our members in SAHP as if they had some knowledge on me. Still my bio was not accepted and I was a good employee and was on duty doing perfectly fine. The next day, before my bio was approved, there was an announcement made in the dept by shaun and it was obviously about me and a specific situation while I was on duty, whatever I got upset because i know i did nothing wrong and voiced out that it was totally unprofessional and clearly directed for me and gave the suggestion/appearance to others I did something wrong when I had not. Screenshot Screenshot Screenshot Which was unfair towards me. Shaun was leader of SWAT team inside of SAHP at the moment. He was capable of only removing/stripping me of the SWAT rank, which I had expected and was totally okay with. This was NOT the case. I was demoted entirely down to corporal 1, having been the same rank as someone who has just joined for just under a week. It was a huge hit to me as I had put a lot of time into the department and failed to understand why or what reason there was for my demotion, I inquired about it and it was to show an "example" which was not explained to me or at least there was no proper reason. From the conversation I had with Papi about it, IC, it was stated that this was an example that people "dont rank up quickly" and "Don't talk to higher ups like that" which in the first place was OOC conversation so their rank literally means nothing. So I started to ask myself what, why, how did that make sense. Screenshot and started to suspect Maxwell Hartman was acting on out of character info on me. The reasoning for my demotion was to "show/prove an example" which honestly I feel was a lie due to these reasons and that for an entire week the dept was complaining that NO ONE was around to rearm them during the times I WAS online and on duty. Crippling the dept and forcing some to feel that they can't go on duty and many asking as to why people are being promoted so fast (proving to me that the reasoning for my demotion was a LIE). I have had many discussions with the many of the deputy's and corporals about it who are active, even specific Higher ranking officers that were in agreeance, when I was active. Demoting me made no sense when thinking about the reasoning I was given compared to the result, unless you think of it as a way that maxwell used it to keep my access to things low because he knew i was crooked. If people "don't rank up quickly" then... why is it when I had 100+ hours logged of duty means I will be the same rank as others with just under 40 hours or even less and even others who had less hours, less knowledgeable and professional were higher ranking than me. Here's a quick list of a few things too.
1) I was already logging my duty logs 90% of the time which was already a good ratio compared to everyone that was logging their shifts. High Command rarely even made log of anything, if they did so AT ALL. (HC seemed to be immune to logging duty logs, weapon logs, etc)
2) I was responsibly logging weapon supply before my demotion
3) Many recruits had learned a lot from me and I took many of them out on ride alongs almost any chance I had
4) I had handled majority of my situations very collective and presented myself professionally and proper.
5) I had personally told them, before anyone asked, that I have been less active than usually just due to irl stuff (which I even had personal talk with maxwell, explaining my IRL issues, prior to him starting to message me in my dm's about me only being on duty for shorter time than usual)
6) Maxwell started to, what I feel was harassing, message me in my private message about only being on duty for 45 minutes or an hour, when even a day prior or two you could see in my duty logs I was active for more than just an hour Screenshot
7) Ignoring the discussion we had prior to him starting to question my activeness that explained what was going on in my IRL
8) illegally searched me without consent prior to rearming me, questioning as to why I took 240 bullets Screenshot then proceeded to LIE about how "we search everyone before we rearm them" and the "policy" when in weapon logs people consistently took out 200 bullets or around that
9) High Command and even SGTs Didn't log their weapon logs/duty logs proper either (which is why I was asked to hand in my badge, I was never kicked from SAHP)
10) Maxwell himself rarely logged weapon logs proper, only start to when I had consistently brought the fact up throughout my time at SAHP that Majority of High Command and High Ranking Officers DO NOT log properly.
11) Anytime I addressed the issue with a supportive discussion from my end, it was always shut down
So finally it came down to today, I eventually went down for a nap as I was up all night and wanted to do some events with the guys that played during the day so I went to recharge. I loaded in at the station (no premium so I lose equipment when I spawn anywhere) and when I went to go toggle my GPS to show org employees i noticed my name right there and my rank set to trainee, was brought up to an office room with papi and maxwell. Had the discussion that my posted logs didnt match with the dept logs and that was suspicious but papi didnt wanna look into it and didnt want to get fib involved so he gave me the choice to hand in my badge and he wasn't going to blacklist me or tell other orgs. Already demoted, knowing I can't fight to get my rank back because it has already been stripped before any discussion and I already pointed out in the discussion at this point that the same shit goes on with the others, they do not log their stuff proper or at all half the time. It was completely disregarded. Indicating they just wanted me out. Specifically I feel maxwell was the main motivator/influencer behind the decision. In this screenshot I also come out about how when I was trying to get promoted, I wouldnt log when I took my break (went out of uniform and sat there sleeping to come back and go back into uniform and out on duty) that wasn't noticed. It was actually identified as me being active. Showing that they are really not looking into it hard enough. Everything would have been fine, I took my L and left the department and didn't bother to fight it anymore. I wanted to apply for NG but that is when the REAL issue occured and has forced me to do this. Screenshot (Also reason he doesn't have the discussion with the LT's is because they don't properly log their stuff or worse, not at all. Yet I am the suspicious one for having attempted way more often and frequently to log properly.
So with all this being said, I feel convinced Maxwell Hartman has Metagamed to get me out of the department using OOC info as an influence to his decision making and targeting. Unsure if Papi was just being influenced or if he was aware as well but the actions taken as a leader of the dept were incorrect here. The suspicious activity I was claimed to be doing was similar or even BETTER behavior/activity compared to the others in the department. Then powergamed to get me blacklisted after papi and had an agreement to not if I just handed in my badge, which was unrealistic with how it went down.
Just to further prove that potential power gaming and support my metagaming claim. Screenshot MonkeyNuts, aka richard sole was quick to laugh at my post about his buddy who most likely told him to blacklist me. Screenshot also I have seen both these two communicate with one another pretty frequently on the discord.
