    Description of the incident
    So I joined a round as XO with the name Dimitri Reznov, not being the first time with this name.

    It was prison and, not to meta, I mentioned that we need to escort a high-threat prisoner from High-Sec, named Dragovich, a real Russian name. I gave him a codename, that being Kingfish(mil-sim RP, duh).

    Everything was going fine and dandy, pushing the xenos back and whatever, until Mr. mvp77 PMs me telling that I am imitating Viktor Reznov from Black Ops.

    I was given a note not even a week ago, when I joined with the name Viktor Reznov and I understood not to be a clone in CM. Now, in mvp's eyes, I was imitating Viktor, but I was not. I didn't join with the name Viktor Reznov, I didn't say his phrases from the game etc.

    To note, also, I kept playing many rounds as the same character this week and I wasn't PMed up until this point. So he DMed me saying something along the lines that he thinks I imitate the COD character and me, respectfully, deny that. I was saying "Comrade (rank)", which is not a reference to the game.

    I then proceed to ask him if he has a problem with people RPing or something like that, or am I going to end up like Windhealer and Juro. I am then met with a "you're getting banned for 3 hours" PM.

    Now, why do I think the protocols were breached? Let's start with:
    3. Determine the seriousness of the issue - I was doing no harm by playing a russian character that was saying "Comrade" and not going meta every round, like others do. A little bit of RP doesn't do any bad to the enjoyement of the round and no one complained at briefing, they rather enjoyed that they were given special tasks(for example, alpha had to establish a checkpoint at canteen so the prisoner couldn't escape)

    5. Determine the punishment.
    a. Determine the bare minimum punishment. There's no reason to jump straight to a ban, especially if the incident didn't cause a major disruption to the game. - Did I cause a major disruption to the game? No, not at all, we can argue that not even a minor disruption. The punishment was way over the line.


    Preserve the RP and enjoyment of the server - Self explanatory, let people roleplay, we're a MRP server after all.
    Evidence
    Logs will do.
    How you would punish the accused
    Remove the note saying that I was banned for 3 hours and probably a talk with said mod about how there are people who want to RP in this server and not just meta every round they can.

    Yeah I was the person who originally ahelped this, mainly due to the fact this is actually a sensible rulebreak of LRP.

    I ahelped this in the first place because as a former council member I can't fathom the likes of you getting the CO whitelist unless you somehow fix how you think and roleplay on a server in the span of a year.

    These were screenshots I took during that round, the announcement of orders being the main reason for the ahelp.



    Ok you already mentioned a major character from Black Ops for a second time, Dragovich including a codename from the Black Ops series.



    Then you still have your old reference for your new and improved "RP" friendly character in your flavor text.





    Wow what a coincidence.

    Stop playing the victim here and spinning the narrative to make a moderator who actually enforced "No LRP" in a good way for once look bad. Playing a Diet Reznov character from a decade old series, getting in trouble for it on a MRP server in a shipside COMMAND role then staff reporting is absurd to me but I rest my case. If you want to get the CO whitelist one day I highly recommend contacting the CO council, ex-council, or even regular staff on how to roleplay and what is expected of a command role both role and roleplay wise, instead of playing a character that is almost three centuries old in age before hypersleep existed from another video game universe.

    Forget the logs.
    Based on what I’ve seen that swagbag posted you are still making references to call of duty series, and it’s not acceptable per our standards.

    No wrong doing here, this is the same when we had to tell dinobubba he had to stop making a full outright reference to solid snake. He had to completely change his name and had to keep the “snake” references simple. You can’t just change the first name and still act like the character from World at war/black ops. You were fine just pretending to be russian calling people comrades, and you were fine with just having a generic last name of Reznov. However you made references to both the antagonist of Black Ops in your command annoucements, and also made references to operation kingfish from Modern Warfare.

    You wanna be "Generic Reznov" and call people comrade and act like a Russian fine. Just keep the CoD crap out of the game.
