Is kicking players instantly from servers allowed?

[Is kicking players instantly from servers allowed?]

The new rule simply states, "You can NOT kick players on joining, to loot farm or to prevent other players from joining." This still implies you can kick players in your full server for your fellow clanmates to join. The only difference is you can't kick recent joins but you may kick a random player who's been playing in your server longer.

My post only advocates kicking for clanmates to free slots when their server is full.

I am against kicking all players to free loot by clans or admins. This is admin abuse and should be reported to the proper channels.

 

 

How can you kick a player that is verbally abusive if you can't locate his player name when they use their mic?

How do you know who is gaining an in game advantage? There is no in game notice to who joins and disconnects. There also isn't a way to identify a player in game unless they type. Many multiplayer games have indicators of who is who. Not in this game.

 

Think about your responses before posting thoughtless replies.

 

You can really only know who leaves and joins by pressing "P". Even then you really can't differeniate if that was the right person. As of right now the game is in early access alpha and new patches are coming out. Hopefully they add a notification area to who joins/disconnects.

You really only see battle eye stuff which isn't helping identify players in game. Only losing connection players.

If there are 40/40 players in the game, kicking someone doesn't violate the rules. I see it as if you are an admin it's you right to be in the game and control your server. If you are unable to get into your own server then what is the purpose of having one? Just a thought. Of course this would be an example of the worst case scenario.

You are paying for a service. If you own something you should have the right to do what ever you want to do within your server within the community rules. Community rules also need to take into account that people pay lots of money to run public servers, and their community rules should take into account that some servers have a lot of members that want to get into their server.

 

If you own a server and can't run your server accordingly, then WHAT IS THE PURPOSE ANYONE OWNING A DAYZ SERVER?

 

They should just make all of them public with no admins, and let them figure it out.

I think implementing reserved slots will cease this conversation for good.

It is not even worth the time to post here about this subject because the rules can be misconstrued in to any light that people want. We run a clean server and we will continue to make room for the people who pay for the server just like all the other servers we have had in all the other games. We are not in the same category as the servers that these guys think they are talking about. We are not trying to make it clan only. We will also keep kicking the server jumpers out as well. Not fair to anyone who spends an hour running across the map looking for supplies or weapons and can't find them because server jumpers keep being lame.

 

A heads up to pubbers. Sometimes when you are on a server and you get kicked out or possibly even banned, it may not be for the reason you think it is. Not all admins are asshats. You could have gotten kicked for a dozen reasons. Even an admins mistake. He might have clicked on the wrong name or mistaken you for another player in the server. Sometimes the other player leaves right before the admin kicks them and your name moves up to the original guys name slot and you get kicked. The admin might not even know he did that. There can be a lot of reasons besides badmins or asshat admins. You never know. Best thing to do is to see if that server has a site or try to contact one of the admins or friend them on steam or Origin or whatever. Take a minute of you time and look don't just say badmin or admin abuser.

 

On a side note, it is amazing how entitled people think they are in the world today. Crazy.

[Server Admins Kicking people or Locking servers for friends only]

I am the owner of this server. I was there when about 100 were kicked during maybe a 30-60 minute period. That is the day that the patch came out. We have about 20+ clan members who have purchased this game. We pay $82 a month for this server I think we have a right to play on our own server. The server was filling so fast we couldn't get in. We kept kicking until all members got in and then the rest filled up with pubbers. We only had about 10 on that day. As soon as we kicked a couple people to let our members in it filled up. The pubbers were joining faster than we could kick them to let on our members but it was not members only. We have never done that.

 

What happens if reserved slots come in to play? it will do the same exact thing. Before calling me/us an asshat or talking out of your asshat come to our site which is clearly posted in the MOTD in the bottom left hand corner every single time you join our server (www monksmilitia.com) and ask us. Instead of coming here you could have used the same amount of energy to come to our site and posted your concerns. You could have even have friended one of us on Steam and asked us what's up. Our clan tag is in the name and we all have the tag on.

 

Your thread is the exact reason why everyone should take heed in when people are saying badmins or butthurt admins or whatever other insults players like to throw around or put down a server. You thread is clearly wrong and I don't appreciate that bad image you paint of my server or myself/clan. There are shitty admins out there with out a doubt. I have encountered a few myself which is why My clan and I have decided to run the servers we enjoy to not have to put up with asshat admins. Been doing it for 6 years in my current community.

 

Next time any of you go into a server and something happens that you don't like, look for info on contacting the clan that runs that server. Most put it in their description and just google their clan name. What you think is happening might be the furthest thing from the truth.
