why i m banned?

Hello, the other day a PR friend linked these videos in our group Discord to see what we think about them. A handful of us went over the videos while looking closely, talked about them, and concluded that there are too many things shown that make us completely doubt Zed=11= is hacking. I do not know Zed=11= other than the fact that I see him frequently play PR. Here is what I have to say about these accusations.

FIRST VIDEO

FIRST LIFE

0:38

When you are much further ahead than your team and you are alone it is best to take corners to new areas slowly. As the clip shows when it is paused shortly after the timestamp, Zed=11= is not aiming directly at anyone and does not aim at anyone through walls.

1:31

This pause tries to show Zed=11= aiming directly at an enemy through a wall, yet the angle the recorder took does not match Zed=11= 's line of sight.

1:50

This is the moment where Zed=11= is about to die. If he was using wall hacks, he would be able to see the enemy through the wall around the corner. He would be able to see the enemy about to peak and therefor anticipate shooting him, however Zed=11= dies without getting one shot off and even without aiming down his MP5.

SECOND LIFE

3:45

The recorder of the video does not seem to use the kill in the few seconds after this timestamp as evidence and he does this for good reason. If Zed=11= was using wall hacks he would be able to see the enemy he kills through the wall when he turns towards that direction in the frames of 3:47 . Zed=11= seems to not see the enemy and even turns his back to the enemy before turning around and killing him.

4:50

In this timestamp the recorder tries to show Zed=11= aiming through the wall at an enemy. Zed=11= is an experienced player and knows the map, why would he aim at an enemy over 100 yards away through buildings that he knows would block his sight? In reality Zed=11= is safely peaking a corner to check for enemies coming who would be within line of sight. After already killing an enemy in the area, he knows more will probably come. It is only a coincidence that Zed=11= aims toward an enemy through buildings.

5:47

The kill at this timestamp shows that if he was using wall hacks Zed=11= would be able to see the enemy well before he kills him as shown just above. Instead of safely peaking around the corner as someone would do if he sees his enemy through the wall Zed=11= completely exposes himself away from cover without aiming or even looking directly at the enemy. When he finally notices the enemy Zed=11= steps back closer to cover before shooting.

7:40

This timestamp shows the grenade kill. Between the pauses at 7:40 and 7:45 you can hear the squeaks of the enemies' feet as they are sprinting toward Zed=11=. You may need to play the video through those seconds a few times to hear the footsteps, but they are there and you will hear them if you take the time to listen closely. Zed=11= does not throw the grenade because he can see them coming, he throws it because he can hear them. After the grenade kill Zed=11= takes out his pistol and checks around the corner while aiming, yet no one is there and he does not look at the second enemy who was following the person who died to the grenade. Why would he check it if his wall hacks would already show that no one is there?

8:33

This timestamp shows that Zed=11= hears that second enemy mentioned above. He can hear the enemy move into and around the backyard from footsteps and can tell the enemy goes up the balcony of the house as the footsteps change from sound effects that play on grass to sound effects that play on buildings. The enemy's shadow shows at 9:08 confirming that he is on the balcony. Zed=11= would be able to see the shadow before he fires.

I hope you can see through my timestamps and explanation the same things that fill me with doubt. In the video Zed=11= does not play how I would expect a person with wall hacks to play. He does not act precise, he always proceeds with caution instead of complete confidence of knowing where the enemy is. He doesn't aim directly at anyone through walls besides coincidence. He does not prefire anyone he hadn't heard or seen before. There is no damning evidence that makes me fully believe without a doubt that Zed=11= hacks.

I also question the motive of the recorder. While looking through the comments of the video you can see the exchange between DogACTUAL and Zed=11=, "or maybe u are just assist whoring for the same reason u joined our clan , the got kicked." It could be possible that DogACTUAL has a vendetta against [LZ] because of getting kicked and therefore records and sees things through a biased lens.

I can take more time looking at the second video, but with what I have shown already I hope you will unban Zed=11= as we need all the players we can get with PR's small playerbase

Quickly regarding the second video, I'd like to draw the admins' attention to the comments of the first youtube video where the exchange between DogACTUAL and Zed=11= takes place. Zed=11= explains that he had previously seen the enemy APC before the video starts and that his commander marked a HAT kit in the area. As Luke Darnok puts it, "I would shoot at that corner with an apc even though no one might be there, When you play the game alot, u tend to be paranoid at corners in urban areas. Not everyone who shoot at corners hack." With the information that a HAT is in the area and the fact that Zed=11= is an experienced player it should not be unexpected that he'd shoot at hiding spots.

Thank you for your time.

No I do not know Zed=11= other than that I recognize that he is a frequent player. I don't know where I lied, if you can point to a specific part where you think I lied I can probably explain it.

I made this detailed post because if something like this happened to me I'd like a member of the community to stick up for me aswell. I also made the post because, again, PR has a small player base and the more people playing the game is better for me because I like playing.

A person in my Discord linked the videos and asked us in the Discord what we thought about it. I assume he linked the videos in our discord because he knows the recorder and/or Zed=11=. We took the time to watch it and talk about it. What I posted above is just a more detailed posting of what we had discussed.

I'd be happy to name the names of the people in Discord, however when I asked if it was ok for me to name them in my original post they had not responded.

OK I'll be done with it. The last thing I want to do is jeopardize my ability to play this game for someone I do not know. I only chose to post what I did because I had already talked about the videos with my friends and after I was informed by one of those friends that a ban occurred. I did not know I could not post here, sorry.
