I'd like to direct this thread's attention to this other thread: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/26262-kick-on-connecting-on-most-but-not-all-servers/ It does not seem to be a global ban, so I will leave the thread here. I do not have any power to act on this matter, however. You will need to contact Battleye, an admin/dev, or have patience.

Details on humanity have always been kind of vague. It's been a stat you couldn't see for a long time, also a stat that did nothing. It's supposed to exist to monitor a players actions, not in a bad way, just a record of what you have done since you spawned. Long ago there were special skins for people with low humanity, so they could be identified as player killers or bandits. This was removed to see how the game would behave without them. Now skins are back, and humanity means something again, your intent can be visually identified based on your actions. In .5 a "hero" skin was added for players with high humanity, probably to act as a visual identifier of trustworthiness. I do not know exactly what humanity a new spawn starts with. I thought there was supposed to be a carry over effect from previous lives so it is never wiped completely, but I haven't been in .5 yet, so I'm not sure. Some people think this is removing "realism" from the game and punishing behavior. Some think it is awesome and they now have a badge for their behavior good or bad. What it comes down to is experimentation, and everyone is a rocket's labrat. It's what you signed up for.

Alright. I'm locking the other thread then so we don't have two of these bumping around. Also, I'll reiterate that this is not the thread to discuss the the philosophy and purpose of "bronies" or MLP, both for or against.

Moving this to troubleshooting.

I'd suggest contacting the admin of 1.7.2.6 to ask what they are doing.

Sometimes an update will necessitate a tent wipe, but in those cases it is usually announced.

Just about everything you bring up is exacerbated by duping or bug exploiting. I believe when standalone lauches or is finished, much of this should be resolved. People saving loot on their friends body isn't particularly offensive. Someone will be looting it, and so your friends do. Your new spawn could be a new person joining them as far as RP goes. I believe it is the current state of gear inflation that makes the recovery of items seem so much worse than it really is. You have a clear point on scavenging and loot maps however, and accessing data outside of the game has been a problem on gaming for a long time. You can go back to when strategy guides were first introduced. What else is a strategy guide than a "how to" guide for all the bosses in the game? My point is that this is kind of a given, not that is depreciates the experience of Day Z any less. As far as isolation, I think I mentioned this in a thread before, but you will be hard-pressed to get most people to forego their external friendships when entering a game. If I were told I can not arrange to meet my friend in game, I simply would not play. Day Z can be very much a social game and a social experience and I would want to share those with the people I play with. Social spontaneity is important, and I think people looking for the "experience" are not "shoot on sight" folk. I love the moments I bump into a stranger and we don't have to duel it out. I believe the game right now, the mod, is not in a state to encourage this, and as a result, there's a lot of shooting going on. I want to believe the standalone will have more "experience" to deliver, and maybe convert some PKs. A big reason for all the killing on sight is a lack of structured goals, which are not typical of a sandbox, but I think true sandbox lovers are the minority in the gaming populace.

Tents are saved to the server they are placed on. For whatever reason, a tent does not save it's contents until after a server restart occurs. Once the first restart occurs after placing a tent, then you may safely put objects in it. This seems to be how they work.

Going to Day Z Gallery.

I don't even...

Contact Battleye. We do not handle Battleye Global bans on the DayZ forums. Read the sticky.

I would love to see less military. I know it's origins are with the milsim and all, but I think it makes more sense, as a zombie thing, to keep it low. I want the zombies to be threatening, and they aren't when you have access to military grade equipment.

Moving this to server general. Better chance the admin of that server browses there. I will also edit your title to include FR4.

Contact Battleye support: http://www.battleye.com/support.html If there is a mistake, they'll fix it. There's nothing else to say about it really.
