    What a Strange, Long Trip it has been...

    the only reason people tell you that, is because a.) im not dressed like you and b.) they havent seen my glorious beard :P
  2. considering since I have first hand knowledge of who you are, and how you play and tactics used and the way you speak to people. I would have to say that the ban you received was more than likely *SPOT ON* I wish you luck on this appeal considering how your last one went, lol

    so you openly state as a "fact" that you have a contact that has knowledge that logs are not viewable or obtainable and you blatently put such words forth as "FACT" when in truth they are NOT. then you turn around and say that you may be wrong, you sir are an idiot and i stand behind my reasons for your BAN.You are acting like a sad child and attempting to lash out because noone would come play with you and your toys on your private server and you come to us to harass usand grief us and throw lies. you will continue to be BANNED untill such time as my logs are requested by the proper authorities and i am forced to recind your BAN. I beleive my reasons for your BAN are justified. Have a nice day sir... I said good day.

    Hello, I am one of the several admins of US 3349. Herein I will detail my full account of the night in question regarding the ban of this particular individual. members of my clan and i including the server owner were finishing up a night of having some fun on the server and started logging off. I had been logged on via the BE Rcon to view player activity due to our server being hit by hackers and suspicious activity since the server had been created. For this reason alone I had begun to view server logs in an attempt to reduce the amount of malicious activity and bring balance to the server for everyone who may log on so that gameplay would no longer be disrupted. Keep in mind that I am new to being a server admin and I am still learning what to look for in the logs and what can and cannot be done to combat these problems that seem to be plaguing the module. When viewing the logs I noticed a pattern of “pipebombs” being and helicopter explosions being used to destroy locations and even our base previously within the last couple weeks. One such event took place while a few of us were having some fun at the airfield and the explosions we heard lead me to look in the logs to see what this was. The particular night in question that I banned these individuals had followed a similar pattern to previous events we had encountered before and I had believed that this behaviour was indeed quite suspicious and as I've looked on these forums from what I've read I am allowed to kick/ban for behaviour such as this. These individuals either spawned or used multiple "pipebombs" and detonated them in order to destroy a base camp, but this was not just a one time thing as my logs show this has happened MULTIPLE times and in short succesion on the night in question. They claim that I was logged in the whole time in game, which I was not... Initially I was logged in Rcon and viewing player logins to see if I recognized any names. Upon viewing the live logs I noticed the excessive usage of the “pipebombs”. Not knowing at the time what “pipebombs” were i viewed this as extremely suspicious behaviour and did a fast google and found out they were satchel charges. Looking at the loot drop rate of this particular item it seemed rather fishy to me that such a mass amount of these items were used in such short succession. The total stock of satchels at the camp totalled five. I began to kick these individuals in an attempt to stop their potentially malicious behavior. Numerous times under the Rcon i noticed the same IP's using different names to login to the server in order to circumvent the kicking of these individuals. While trying to learn the proper way to begin the ban procedure I had no idea at the time but to log on and see if my suspicions were correct. I logged my character in to find our base in ruins, our base raped and violated. The destruction of the base was by all means allowed and I made a small change to the the Maxping setting as I also noticed that a few of these individuals had pings over 150ms so i set the maxping to 110ms. I reset the server for settings to take effect, and it was only later that I realized that this could be done on the fly through the Rcon. After server reset, I sat in the lobby and logged into the Rcon and watch these individuals log back on repeatedly and the logs show again more usage of said satchel charges to do the same thing over and over again. this process of kicking lasted at least an hour- to be honest, I lost track of how many times i had to kick them to stop them from their harassing behaviour. In the end I had to finally issue an IP ban in order to get the issue resolved which brings us to another topic as well. This clan, Shiva Organization, that this gentleman is part of was affiliated with us and friends with us for quite some time. From the small talk I had with this man, I use this term loosely, there is blatant proof of premeditated harassment due to us not wanting to play on a "their" private hive server where THEY are not bound by any set rules or regulations. They can do whatever they want and obtain what they want when they want in whatever quantity they so desire. I am not saying that this is what they did in order to obtain the mass amount of items they used in such a case but i say this because they openly admit to such harassment which even though was to a small group’s base; our server has a low population count so this detracts from the overall gameplay experience of all players involved. I wish to provide the log evidence which shows the multiple logins using same IP's and all “pipebombs” references listed as well as showing all similar behaviour which led me to scrutinize foreign player actions more carefully. I in no way shape or form have anything against this group of individuals, but i firmly believe that this was a wrong way to go about dealing with our refusal to join their server. I admit that we had a few satchel charges in our possession that we found legitimately along with a few other pieces of equipment that former hackers left behind on our servers and others. Yet, none of that was not legitimate or would warrant such abuse to our player group whatsoever. If anything it seems a personal attack as this gentleman and I shared harsh words and did not see eye to eye previously to this current situation. As far as the allegations of multiple server resets; no, I did not reset the server.. I shutdown the server in order to circumvent this harassment and suspicious behaviour initially until I was able to IP ban to stop this issue from happening again. If after viewing our logs I am found to be in the wrong I will gladly lift the ban but I will not agree with it as this is a clear case of intentional aggression, plain and simple, along with unforgivable and egregious behaviour that this community should not support and watch out for similar cases. We don’t need people that take this kind of action for something so small in a gaming environment. Please PM legacy and let me know how to get you a pristine log file as i want it to be in its natural state without any possible tampering.
