Beans for a nice, thought-out, post.

WTB crossbow that doesn't suck

I wear it to stay alive, it has nothing to do with my intentions.

Rocket didn't intend to tell us how to play either.

Dying is a part of the game.

Problem is that no one wants to play a zombie game where we all run around with sticks until we bump into a guy who found an overturned humvee and is strapped like the terminator. If weapons are rare, the people who DO find them will win almost constantly.

I get tired of people making extreme generalizations about banditing and then not backing up their reasons with anything solid.

Does that not force you to be more aware of your surroundings? If you don't like getting sniped in cherno, go get your starting gear in zelenogorsk or some more rural towns/barns. That's what I do.

Because bandits are the real problem in DayzMod. /sarcasm

So where do I find you?

WTB: Addition to SA that prohibits server Admins from playing on their own servers except as invisible spectators that cannot have direct impact on the game.

Step in my wake, your gear I take.

I keep saying why, and no one responds with anything meaningful. Once you get your full kit, there's two things you can do with your time. You can get a vehicle and ferry bambies around, where they will get geared up and be in the same boat as you or they'll kill you and take your stuff OR you can go look for trouble. I always look for trouble, because I always get killed by some backstabber when I try to help. So now that I'm looking for trouble, I run off in the direction that side chat is talking, by which I mean the people who tell me where they are by not shutting up in side chat. This usually lands me kills that I find justified and then they'll complain in side and hopefully other people like me will show up to fight. Usually they don't. So the only thing I have left to do is run around that same area and kill anyone who shows up. I play on private hives with boosted vehicle spawns so that helps in getting people to come to me, but sooner or later, the only people I KNOW I can find are the people on the coast. The coast isn't just where bambis go. Lots of skilled players hang out there and the sniper camps help add to the danger. However, if I go down this road I have no choice but to kill everyone. After all, I don't know who's talking/working for who. I don't know who's going to take the ammo in the firetower or grab a gun and come after me. So the answer is simple: kill everyone all the time unless they are given a CLEAR opportunity to kill me and they don't take it, because the only people I would trust are the ones who would hold up a bandit, not kill him, nor take his things, and trust him to let them go. And PS: sniping's a part of the game, learn how to sidestep while looting and not stand in the open.

I like how you tried to criminalize the bandit by pointing out his age and analyzing his choices against studies done on people who play games and yet you spend no time reflecting on how people in a video game made you quit playing altogether even though you obviously love it. Here's a little hint to people who want to earn their psychology degrees in Day Z: ad hominem and fallacy of the strawman are not tools for digging into the minds of your "subjects".

I would have shot him. He should know that approaching people who are looting is a bad idea. He also could have been in skype with the bandits, trying to find where you'd store the loot so they could take it back later.

I've seen enough people like you crying on the coast to know that wasting your time is all you accomplish anyway.

I liked trying your server out and all but you already have a post on this, you should not double post.

tried to join it several times, can't.

Reinforcements have arrived. Inb4 bambis stop coming here to argue.

It's like you come from some part of the internet where no one ever trolled or pulled pranks or anything. You're obviously just butthurt that you don't know how to survive without getting everything in 2 minutes at cherno on a low-population server. It's fun to watch people get mad, that's all the reason to plink a nuspawn.

He's also a bandit because he can't spell "survive" or "survivor".

There should be a report button for people who cry as much as you do about dying.

Also they are keen to ponies. Can't go wrong there.

I remember that thing. It called me "Diamond Scholar". I guess I look at gems all day or something?
