Description of the incident: I was an MP during an LV round and was sent down to capture Oscar Kellogs for numerous reasons. I agreed and went planetside, stood in FOB and just waited until Oscar showed up. When he showed up, I ordered him to stop and he started running away so a persecution ensued. All marines around started to go crazy and push me and try to stop me from arresting the guy (normal marine behavior) and everyone was trying to jeopardize it. Anyways, I manage to down him and an SG tries to break him free, I grab him again and he runs, again, so after he pushes me down with help of the other squaddies he tosses away my cuffs and my flash.
I didn't even know the CO was down there by the time, so I just went to fetch my handcuffs and I see someone dragging my flasher. I grab the flasher (double click) and as I double click the flasher does it's flashing sound (i suppose it flashed someone?) so I retrieve it, retrieve my cuffs, try to go back to the ship to cuff a hurt Kellogs when suddenly.
I'm BE'd by the CO for "flashing him".
I believe this is the most trigger-happy BE i've seen in my life, as this person was clearly just looking for an excuse to shoot someone. He then went on over announcements about how I "jeopardized" the operation and put "everyone at risk" when I didn't accidentally shoot anyone and it was the marines who were trying to get in the middle during the persecution.
Let it be known that the CO was fully aware an MP was going to be sent planetside to capture kellogs because he has full access to the MP channel.
So this person esentially BEd me for trying to performan arrest.
Evidence (screenshots, logs, etc): None
How you would punish the accused: I don't know, but i'm tired of COs that kill you for no absolute reason, and I'm also almost 100% certain the CO will say something around the lines of "oh but I BEd you because you flashed me" nonsense. I recommend the council to start enforcing your COs to follow BE guidelines in order for them to stop griefing people for dumb reasons.
