What warning did you receive: Fail RP

When did you receive this warning: Tuesday, May 16th

Please give a description of the situation that led to the warning: (Playing as Research) While conducting a SCP-194 test alongside AR WID, SU-Genesis-S.148, and O5-2 "The Infected" we were attacked by a CI Infiltrator. Me and AR WID pulled out our riot shields to defend ourselves while O5-2 and Genesis began shooting back, but after the CI Infiltrator unloaded a clip into our riot shields we both pelled out weapons and began to shoot. I was the one who shot the last bullet that killed the Infiltrator so I was the one who got reported.

Why do you think this warn was false: As stated on the Gaminglight SCP rules under Foundation Staff - GenSec, Research. Maintenance, Medical "The self-defense clause is satisfied by observing CI personnel, D-Class or SCPs attack other non-combatants or being attacked themselves." Only after being shot at by the Infiltrator did I shoot him, so me killing the CI Infiltrator should've fallen under self-defense and not FailRP. The reasoning I got for why it was FailRP was because the damage logs showed that the Ci Infiltrator did not damage me specifically during the timeframe of the events and that because I did not take any damage, I wasn't allowed to shoot back.

Evidence the warning is false: I'm not sure if logs go that far back, but I couldn't recover the clip that was taken but, O5-2 "The Infected" was there and can verify the timeline of events.

From my end, I issued the warn because the CI infiltrator was firing upon the O5, I did not see from the clip, where the infil had fired upon the noncombatants even after they pulled their riot shields out. I do not have the clip, nor do I remember the infil in question to receive the clip from. Given the evidence at the time and lack of damage logs from what I saw I decided to use the warn for FailRP for the non combatant clause. 

 

I have no evidence of this, however, I feel that it is important to note that when asked why they had fired upon the infil they stated that, "because he was shooting in our direction."

Given the lack of evidence supporting this appeal, I do not see a valid reason to overturn the warn. While I personally would have most likely given a verbal, it is at the staff member's discretion.
