Dear Sirs,
I would like to appeal the validity a ban and will state the details below.
Nickname: tBKwtWS
Date & time of ban: 1-2-11, 15:05 CEST
Banned by: [WS]Fuzzy
Duration: 60 mins
Reason: Relogging to respawn my car.
I was advised by one of you crew members, MadMax, to relog if my car vanished in order to re-spawn it.
An hour later I lost my car so I relogged to find to my surprise that I was frozen.
I was asked why I relogged, so I answered honestly: "To respawn my car."
The most annoying think about this was, I did not get the time or chance to explain myself. I was banned a few seconds after answering.
What happened:
I was a suspect and being chased.
A cop came in the other direction and rammed me head on.
I flew though the window of my car and died.
I respawned @ the dukes PD to find my car was not in it's parking place.
So I relogged as instructed earlier.
I have read the rules on the forum before doing the passport test, but I do not remember a rule stating it is forbidden to relog in order to respawn your property. I did not even think about verifying if this is legal or not, because I was told to do so.
I hope you can clarify to me if I misunderstood MadMax, if I was misinformed by MadMax or if I was banned incorrectly.
I was unable to ask this as I was banned without conversation.
I would like to understand the rules to prevent further bannings. And to be able to properly report reloggers in the future, as I have not done so in the past. And I must mention a lot of people do so.
Thanks in advance,
tBKwtWS

An unban topic is not required for a tempban, but as you have some questions ill answer them
As I see it, currently we have no system to help you find your car if it is gone, when a player asks me how to retrieve their car, I also tell them to relog.
Due to there being no command to get your car if it is gone, I personally allow relogging. I am thinking Fuzzy saw it as you relogging to get the car back from a player, perhaps he was driving it at the time you relogged the second time.
On our SA:MP Server it is punishable to relog to get your vehicle back, but due to us having no script at this current time I see it as not a problem to relog to get your car back.

I understand this board is not for temporary bans, but I did not want to post this as a formal complaint against Fuzzy before I got all the facts straight.
Thank you kindly for replying swiftly,
From your reply I conclude that I was banned wrongfully, due to Fuzzy not granting me the time to explain myself. And due to the rules not being stated clearly.
I do not feel this is my problem or responsibility. Is it possible to get this stain off my permanent record?
And do I still have to wait an hour to play?
MadMax also advised me to relog in case my car is stolen, from your message I understand this is not allowed.
Can I please request clarity, I do not want to be banned again for something you tell me is legal.I also tell them to relog.
Perhaps there should be a guideline for admins on this matter, because I feel like a victim of bad communication within the management of this community at the moment.
As I relogged at the moment after I died I doubt Fuzzy had the time to drive away in my car.
In addition, I do not understand the ban reason. It states script abuse.
Did I gain an unfair advantage by relogging? I think not, of cource I urge you to correct me if I am wrong.
The place I spawned after relogging was the same as the place I spawned after I died. So the cops just had to wait the 45 seconds it took me to relog and they still had to drive from the point where I died to my spawnpoint. Which would have granted me more then enough time to drive away in my car, had it been there.
Sincerely,
tBKwtWS

Hello tBKwtWS, welcome to Argonath RPG Forums.
I believe this is a broken "ego/pride" issue rather than injustice.
As you've gained enough information, I will seal this topic. If you don't feel contented regarding any member of the current IV:MP Argonath staff, contact the Management with proper material evidence.
That way, You help Us build a pleasing place for all to feel safe and sound.
Regards,
