thanks, as for the admin after I left a friend of mine said the admin was talking to everyone on the server and making jokes, so I just assumed it was him,but there were very very few people other than my group on the server, maybe 2 others, the admin, and my group I saw the report section but I don't remember the name or info of the server, and really just want to hit the sack for tonight I'll talk to my friends about getting whitelisted to a good server ugh soo frustrating :/ I was looking foreward to running into one of the big cities with my group and wrecking everything around the supermarket, especially since there were so few people on the server.

A semi quick story of a DayZ noob with a very bad ending Friend of mine bought me arma2+oa on steam sale, so we could play together. Had about a group of 6 people who wanted to do it. First day i load it up and its fairly fun, I get used to the controls fairly quickly, utterly fail at finding a weapon on my own due to zombies. Four or so hours later i manage to get a rifle(lee enfield), and proceed to get myself killed with the noise. I am absolutely loving the game, its fantastic, and ZERO bugs so far. second day(today) 6 hour marathon session getting together, each time one of us joins it takes us 10-60minutes to meet up. two of our group have decent weapons, and helped the rest of us do the military base so everyone had assault rifles/ammo, during the period of gathering weapons and meeting up several of us are player killed, and the intense shootouts and hiding are exhilarating, but alas we dont have nearly enough food+drink, so our most veteran member suggests an epic run accross the map, which results halfway in the server crashing, we take the time to find a new one, gather everyone up. AND THEN THE ADMIN OF THE NEW SERVER TURNS US INTO FARM ANIMALS, WE DC/LEAVE, AND ALL OUR GEAR IS PERMAMENTLY GONE,and we are starving to death in the middle of nowhere :/ im not even mad about the loss of gear, and time, it was fun..... but a humble request from a noob(assuming you even stayed passed the wall of text i have woven for you)... how do i make sure that never happens again, or is this something that will be forever over our heads unless we get our own server?
