DayZ hat off. Pandemic Legion hat on.

It is my strong recommendation that this clan refrain from using our logo.

Skylining is a proper term.

Hi, I was notified of this thread. Server admins are not permitted to ban for server hopping or ghosting. While ghosting is technically an exploit, it is hard to prove, and has become the "catch-all" excuse for banning anyone who kills the server owners. The abuse of this is rampant. Due to this, you're not permitted to ban for ghosting. While it's not been explicitly stated so, server owners are of course allowed to use their own initiative and ban for hacking if this is severely disrupting gameplay. What this means is that a server admin is permitted to ban someone who for example is CONFIRMED spawning in tanks and airplanes, or is CONFIRMED to be using nuke-cheats, mass-kills or similar game disrupting hacks. This does not mean that server admins are permitted to ban someone who they think may be using hacked in gear, as gear can be legitimately obtained, and it's hard to prove or be certain that a person has not obtained this gear legitimately. I hope this clears things up.

CQF server admin, please contact me through PM.

As the previous poster said, with the CZ550, use page up and page down to change the zeroing of the sight. On veteran servers (that I myself tend to play on), the challenge is to accurately judge the distance to the target. This can be done in several ways, for example by estimating how far away they are based on how tall they appear in the scope, referencing known points or, if you have a map, count the grid squares between you and the target.

Abusing the support ticket system or the forums with spamming will not get a faster response, nor will it get a server blacklisted or a cheater banned faster. If players abuses this, they may find themselves banned from the forums and from the game. A single ticket or post is more than sufficient. This is your one and only warning.

Stickied.

Locked for bumping abuse. Official word, if you want to help DayZ out, there are better ways to do so than stealing someone elses work.

Server host, please adhere to the server rules. Everyone else, harden the fuck up and stop whining. The server hosters pay a lot of money to host the game that you are playing for free. Give them the benefit of doubt, and show them a bit of respect. Thread closed, as it has turned into a flame fest.

Closing this thread. Please sort out your problems with Vilayer with them. Making a thread on the DayZ forums to point fingers is bad form.

Added a clarification in the original post. The OP states what an admin is able to do as admin. Some of the things an admin is able to do may constitute admin abuse, but may also be done for valid reasons. For example, locking or passwording a DayZ server is generally not permitted, but may be done so for specific purposes - for instance troubleshooting and maintenance or as a temporary preventive measure against heavy connection spam or severe hacker attacks.

Hi Stice. Reply to the email and I'll get around to it. My apologies if I gave you the wrong reply. I kinda have to do triage on the email right now and sometimes I make a mistake or two. :) Backlog is now 770 emails, and I'm just over 4 days behind. The emails are still coming in though! :(

Hi all, Many people have waited a long time for a response to emails. We apologize for this, as the email backlog has been huge! We've been working hard to cut down on the email backlog, so if you haven't received a response, please be patient. Current backlog: Unread emails: 767 Days behind: 4
