Can't blame him for trying though..

Lol Derper thats the hoster, not the people renting the server. Seriously doubt they can help.

Like Rick already posted. Adminning and regulating a public hive server is pretty hard. No admin tools are available, nearly all the cheat detection is done 'by hand' so to say (going through logs multiple times a day dishing out bans on hackers based on log evidence). Also, public hives are pretty much under hack attacks multiple times a day, so (in your case) having only 1 active admin isn't going to do your population much good. This is my personal opinion. We have multiple admins that deal with the log files, but we're still struggling to keep our server clear of hackers. On a side note, I still love playing on our public server and I dont want to discourage you into not renting a server, but be prepared for a hell of a job! If you do decide to rent a server, make sure you rent it from a hoster which gives you the option to configure multiple (trusted) people access to the servers ftp as this is the place you'll be doing most of your adminning.

Looks like some corrupt entries somewhere in the database..

Your best bet is to find a website or forum from the people renting the server and appeal there. Its a private hive server. They can ban you for whatever reasons they can come up with.

A little bit more on this. At the time our other head got that entry in the logs I was basicly running next to him and it looked like he was kind of warping (lagging behind, then appearing in front of me when I waited for him). Might have to do with sync lag or something... not sure... Btw. I ONLY unbanned the people we banned for just that entry. If they had more entries in different logs they would stay banned..

OP I still got my old gameboy somewhere with Tetris on it... seems to me that might suit you're prefered gaming style a bit better?! Sorry but this thread is bs... If you don't like playing with or against people using voip comm programs, don't do online gaming at all!

Looks like some kind of code execution, but not sure. We tend to not ban unless 100% sure it is some kind of script.. You can either dig into this a bit deeper, wait for a reply or keep this person banned untill he/she appeals..

Let me rephrase... That makes THAT person just as bad ;)

I'd be a bit cautious with banning people for the above. 1 of our own (trusted) head admins was logged in 1 of the logfiles with the exact same line. Not sure what causes this to appear, but this is some kind of false positive. We've removed all bans related to this log entry (ofc ONLY related to this entry).

Sounds like combat logging to me :D

Stating the server name in your subject helps the admins of that server identifying yout appeal. Stating your ban reason and ingame name might help too.

Hehe this is an amusing piece of writing :D

Sorry for the (very) late reply.. Not sure why we missed your post. Rest assure all scumbag hackers are banned from our server. We do logchecks at least once a day (normally a lot more, depending on how busy the server is). Cheers for the report though!

Could you ask what specific logfile this came from (I'm assuming scripts.log)?

As far as I know a server keeps its status on how well it's being maintained.. Imo a DayZ server doesnt necessarily need 40 players to become interesting. A lot of players simply look for an empty server so they can loot hot spots without being sniped or attacked all the time.. As long as you can give your playerbase the feeling that your server is being maintained and adminned well (no admin douchebaggery) they will keep coming back.. Imo this is what sets DayZ apart from eg. a Counter-Strike server. Normal FPS games NEED players to be interesting.. A DayZ server doesnt necessarily have to have many players on it . Just my 2p.

lol that makes you just as bad...

There was an issue with an earlier version of Battleye which limited the banlist to max.3000 bans (from what I was told), but as far as I know this has been fixed about 2 months ago. We haven't had any issues afterwards...

Hehe spot on! Can't wait for a feature like that to be implemented :) *bounces around like a 5 year old in a candystore :D :D :D*

You're link = HTTP status code: 504 :( Might be my work network acting up though :( I'll check when I get home...

We normally roll out with about 4 - 5 of us... Our group sometimes adds up to about 8 people...Even with the usage of teamspeak (or something else) it'll take time to get every1 together at the same spot without being shot on the way there..

Gimme gimme gimme!! Awesome future!!! Hope they will introduce something like a windmeter(?!) as toolbelt item too... Sniping will become hardcore!!! Love it!

lolwut?!

lol @ vapordadz reply :D :D :D :D :thumbsup:

Doesnt really matter much where you make a camp... at some point some1 will find it...like Jpotty said, try to keep it at 1 tent (or maybe two).. 1 tent is less likely to be spotted from a distance...
