Thank you for your patience Spooky.
After reviewing this case in detail from the demo's to comparing with recorded logs of both chat and admin commands we have Decided that this was a case of unfortunate timing and not a case of malicious abuse of power on Zonical's behalf.
To show due diligence I shall provide all the evidence upon which we have made our judgment.
Firstly I used the information you provided with locate and record a clip of the round in question posted below:
In this clip we can see that everything you stated in your original post was correct so this was a matter of determining Intent.
To decide if Zonical had intended to purposfully use his Kill Cam command to avoid death we needed to pull the command logs and compare them against the admin chat logs to see if he was really responding to a freekill claim or not.
This is the Admin chat messages that were sent to the staff currently on the server. Please note that all Logged times are based in Local QLD time not linked to the server time.
From this we can see that at 12:54:15 A+ sent his first message to admin chat regarding a potential freekill.
At 12:54:28 Only 13 seconds after the first Message had been sent Zonical activated his first KC command. This was the time in which he had allegedly Abused his power by using KC to avoid death.
As a whole our staff are trained to prioritise thier staffing duties over their own gameplay. Keeping in line with the staff teams philosophy we deemed that a 13 second response time to a freekill claim is an appropriate timeframe for Zonical to have had before first responding and dealing with the potential freekill.
Proceeding the KC he then slapped himself for the damage he was likely to take had he escaped from the smoke which again is the correct course of action.
We also deemed that he did not use KC re-actively following your second nade as tbh he's not smart enough to do so lmao.
In hindsight after speaking with Zonical he did admit that he should have waited to escape the smoke before responding to the Freekill claim but wasn't thinking of that at the time and just wanted to help out in the moment.
Overall we do not belive this to be a case of abuse of power therefore Zonical has not been punished for his actions. However we have spoken to him about this situation so in future he will know to wait until he is in no danger before dealing with a freekill claim to avoid this situation occuring in future. While I do realise you and Zonical have had beef in the past and possibly still do remember that Zonical and the whole staff team are humans and not perfect we do make mistakes but that does not immediately mean they are acting maliciously.
Thank you anyways.
