Rage VG

I had no idea they were no longer popular. Either way, I'm sorry to hear this is happening to you. But as Smasht has said, It's easy to frame someone.

Make sure to tick "Hide incorrect mod version" and "Hide incorrect ARMA version", so that you only find servers running your version of ArmA and Dayz.

I can personally say this isn't the first thread I've seen during my time here about the exact same thing, from the exact same group.

Not to sound cold or anything, but writing about your personal life won't help your appeal any. You just need to ask an admin to look at the logs and confirm you were not hacking, which should have been done before you were banned.

It means, as you would expect, that someone is using your CD-key. Something you have downloaded has taken it and given it to another person, who is now using it to play the game, or you have installed your copy on someone's computer, and they are using it. If it was stolen, odds are it is being used to hack, and will likely be banned soon.

That's why there are more custom private hives than there are vanilla main hives.

Said it before, I'll say it again. If only there was a way to hide servers that aren't vanilla... ...Oh.

One thread is enough. Don't spam the forums.

You don't need to make more than one thread for your server...

First step, make sure you engrave what I said earlier in your mind. You are the only person responsible for the security of your computer. If you buy a new copy, and the key is lost due to the same virus taking it again, that is entirely on you. Once you can accept that, you can move on, by first of course making sure your computer is clean of any malicious files that may steal your key. Once you're certain it is safe, make a new Steam account. Purchase ArmA II: Operation Arrowhead (Not Combined ops, you only need Operation Arrowhead). Now, uninstall the current copy of Operation Arrowhead, and reinstall it again from your new account, making sure to give Steam Administrator privileges beforehand. Once done, you should have a new key, and be ready to go. Your characters will be reset however, as those are tied to your old key.

Sir, I've heard this more than I've heard my ringtone. Even if someone has randomly guessed your key (Astronomically low odds), there is literally nothing we can do. If anything, try talking to Bohemia Interactive.

Unless you've installed your copy of ArmA II on another computer that someone else uses, in which case they might be using it, then someone HAS stolen your CD-Key. Something you have downloaded has taken it. It's almost certain a hacker is using it, and will get it global banned soon. Sorry, but there is nothing we can do at all. It is your responsibility to keep your computer clean of the malicious types of files that would take your key.

Probably a default loadout of something like combats, and a shirt.

I can, however that doesn't mean it'll stay that way. As I was saying, if you feel that you wouldn't be able to keep up, try and tone down the scale of your project.

Hey, if you're going to make another banlist, and you don't have the time right now to keep it working properly PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW EVERY DAMN SERVER TO USE IT. The CBL went terribly since nobody was active in which to appeal these. Meaning that if someone were to accidentally end up on there, they're on there for good. If that were avoided it would be a great idea. I'd be happy to help in any way I can if it means preventing a CBL 2.0, though I have to admit I can't offer a lot, however I can do a lot of what little I can do, if that makes sense.

Whatever stole your key the first time has probably stolen the other two. That's not BattlEye's job, it's yours, to keep your computer clean. There's literally no point in making a thread here about it. What do you want us to do, go beat up BattlEye for you and tell them to buy you a clean PC and a fresh copy of A2:CO?

There's nothing to "Wrap my head around". You think it's easy to find legitimate CD-keys cheap, and I disagree. I think stooping low as to insult my intelligence out of nowhere is showing that you can't really prove me wrong.

That's all fine and good, but random sites from the net aren't "Right from BIS", are they? Plus, there isn't a demand for Windows 7 keys from people who have a tendency to render their current ones useless, is there? It's a much different story.

Not at all. What profit would a site be getting by legitimately buying games, and then selling them for cheaper than retail price? There is none. The ony way to run a profit from that is to acquire them cheap and sell them for more. Stealing keys is by far the most common method of this. Don't believe me? Check the forums, tell me how many threads you see about people's CD keys (Singular and plural) being stolen, or getting "CD-Key in use" because someone has sold their key online from some cheap website, and then consider all of the people who simply do not speak up about it, and you'll see it's not "Bullshit". There is literally no reason to buy them off a website for slightly less and run the risk of it just being a stolen one and thus funding a site that sells stolen keys when you can get it on steam and have complete peace of mind.

There's no such thing as a "Legit key online". ANY source that sells just keys isn't legit. They are all stolen, like yours.

Purchase Operation Arrowhead on a new steam account, reinstall with admin privileges.

If you installed ARMA II: Free with Operation Arrowhead, then it would work, albeit with lesser graphics.

I don't watch him either, I was stating a fact. He has nothing to do with DayZ. And I blatantly said: So your remark comes across as nothing more than rather stupid. I get the feeling you have no intention of raising a valid point at all, and are just going to flame everyone who disagrees with your wall of ragetext, so I'm not going to waste my time meaningfully replying to a doomed thread. Maybe because the moment they read your first post, they see: If you want people to show you respect, show some first.

Geez, you want someone to hold your hand and protect you from all the scary bad people in the world? Pewdiepie isn't a part of our community because he has one video on the game. I've drank Diet Coke before, that doesn't make me a fan of it. The fact that people buy a game purely for an addon it has would prove it doesn't suck. FYI, the very idea of a Zombie apocalypse is unrealistic. Any time you tell me "This wouldn't happen in a REAL Zombie apocalypse", I'll just laugh at you. If you ignore the zombie aspect, the game is essentially spot on in everything, and pretty darn close on the things it isn't accurate on, considering it's not only a video game, but merely a mod of a video game. No, I wouldn't kill someone for what I needed, but then again, I don't live in an apocalypse, do I? There's nothing in this world that I desperately need that isn't plentiful. I'm not going to bother replying to the rest, this thread will probably get locked before I could type it all up. It just sounds like another "omg i keep getting killed booboo" story.

Step one, have you tried a clean reinstall of all Arma II and DayZ related files and addons?
