Good Evening, Jokhah
Thank you for sharing your concern about the matter and I will do my best to explain as best as I can.
To start with, this Unblacklist request is about yourself hence the name 'UBL: Jokah', this is not about the casino owner in question. However I did not witness the individual who, as you stated 'broke the rules' therefore an investigation was not held nor did I punish him. However, If you obtain any evidence which would support your statement then please make a 'Ban Request' thread and state the rules that he broken; Our team will be more than happy to look into your concerns.
As for your on-topic concerns.
Your weapons choices were not realistic, yes as you agreed.
But the realism is not based on the balance of the Gamemode, yes the economy is above the average as it is in real life. The reason for this being that this is a 'Semi-Serious' roleplay server, therefore the rate at which you gain money is somewhat faster than it is than it would be if it was 'Serious' Roleplay. This is so you are able to progress somewhat faster in the game and a balance which will not be changed.
Yes as a whole, you are able to easily gain to money to buy the weapon however it is up to you as an individual to use these weapons correctly to suit the 'CityRP' plot of the roleplay. Because your job is to re-enact the life an average citizen; The average citizen does not walk around with AKs nor do they go around executing people that break their guitar. The maximum I would expect would be a knife or now a baseball bat - This was not reason for your punishment however is was accounted for.
It is not about 'What weapon is the best'. It is about roleplaying your role effectively and re-enacting the emotions and how a citizen would act if someone was to come up to you and for example: 'smashed your guitar with a bat'.
The correct way to act as a citizen, would be to be feel somewhat intimidated; back off a little and show concern. If I put myself in that shoes of this street performer, I would be somewhat scared of this person and once I knew I was safe, I would have informed the police.
I for sure would not get out my AK47 and kill him. I doesn't happen thus the lack of realism resulting in it being FailRP.
Remember, this is not about winning a situation nor is it (May I lightly imply) A team death match. This is how you act in situation that may arise and how effectively you relate this to realism.
I hope this helps you better understand the situation and highlights what resulted in your rule breakage of: 'FailRP'. If you are still struggling to understand I advise that you look at a guide I made about '[GUIDE] Performing Citizen Role Effectively - Experienced Roleplaying.'.
Finishing notes:
Your Blacklist still stands as follows and will not be removed nor will it be shortened.
Remember, you are required to use your common sense when it comes to roleplaying and you are responsible for your actions.
Rules Broken:

Quote:We debated my choice of weapon. In terms of was it a good option, no. Even I have agreed that the AK wasn't my first choice in weapons. As for realism and fail rp surrounding my weapon, here is the my final battle on that. I made between 5-10k doing street performer rp, there are gunstores in the city at nearly all times. I had made enough money to buy one, I don't see how I'm not allowed to own one. I definately was pulling enough income to buy one.

Quote:melee weapons are commonly the single worst choice to use. Players will see you coming after they intentionally provoke a response out of you, see you with your melee weapon, laugh, and pull a gun before you get close enough. This is more of an issue with your rules conflicting with good rp. I mean if I came out with a knife and he pulled a gun on me, the arguement used against me would be fear rp and too bad you didn't get him in fear rp first. It's like you are trying to force me into a lose lose situation in terms of weapon choices.
