Please answer the following questions as if you were a Trial-Mod:
2.6: William has adverted carjack and stolen an NHS members vehicle. Joe reports him for failing to advert carjack. What steps will you take to resolve this sit?
I would start of bringing Joe into a staff sit and have a clear clarification of his side story. I would then Bring William, and inform Joe that William had adverted carjack. However, I would inform William that stealing NHS vehicles is against the server rules, and I would check his warns to see if this was his first offense; if not, I would warn William for "Crimes Against NHS" and close the sit and return both of them to their original location.
2.7: Joe has reported William for shooting at him for no reason. William states that he was not shooting for no reason, he adverted PD raid. William has killed 6 people. What steps will you take to resolve this sit?
I would bring both members to a staff sit and listen to both sides of the story; I'd check logs to see if William had adverted a PD raid or not, and to see where Joe was killed; if Joe was killed in PD, it wouldn't matter to William and would tell Joe that William can kill anyone in PD while raiding, and he'd be free to leave; however, if William killed Joe outside of PD, he'd be warned for RDM; And if William did not advert PD raid, I would ban him for Mass Rdm, and request for an extended ban length.
2.8: Joe (Drug dealer) has built a base on the sidewalk. William raids Joes base with no advert. Joe kills William. William gets a new gun and drives straight back and kills Joe and sells all his drugs. What steps will you take to resolve this sit?
I’d bring both members to a staff sit, and listen to both sides of the story; I'd tell Joe (the drug dealer) that he can't establish bases on the sidewalk and that he must switch to Hobo if he wants to keep building on sidewalks, however I would warn William for FTA, RDM Revenge, and NLR. And he'd get a cooldown ban as he'd gotten three warnings.
2.9: William as a Commander in the Police is hosting a meeting he adverts “Pd meeting | Starting 5m | Important topics | No major crimes” Joe as a Jihad adverts bombing and ends up killing 10 people. What steps will you take to resolve this sit?
I would bring Joe into a staff sit and ask him if he had noticed the PD meeting advert, if he had not and it was genuinely a mistake, I would let him leave/warned for interrupting a meeting, and keep an eye on him. But IF joe had noticed the PD Meeting advert, and did it on purpose then I would inform him that he is not permitted to bomb or raid in "No Major Crimes" events, I would ban him for Mass Rdm, and request an extended ban length.

I believe I can bring good to this server and the staff team.
