U.B.C.S. Ravin

Phew. Hackers being banned like a baws today. Two more to add to the report before sending it over to DayZ Staff.

I am willing to bet its through a few forums posts I did about not legit servers closing down for loot and they saw my sig from there. By proxy. Or maybe I pissed someone off by telling them they are an idiot. That can happen to. Blame me for it :3. Its all gravy to me.

Freeside Trading Co. keeps there server up 24/7. Why can't GMS? Can I link them to your thread and say, "Hey, bring your server down when you are not trading." Do you not see why this is a problem? GMS server is still down. Looking at their restarts also, they are sporadic and random, having no actual normal restart time with the server being taken down for days. There is also a second server named the same thing from them, that was a new recent server that is down and even up less than the other server... That is also down for days on end. What is this...

Pretty sure this requires editing the mission file... Which can get a server blacklisted. Another roadblock. https://community.bi...addEventHandler I would post a thread asking Rocket to add a server file for Kills. Infact, this might have to do with Arma2. It allows us to enable it, but its clearly not preenabled for DayZ, Crossing into DayZ territory for their mission file. Which we cannot touch. Like people who reenable sidechat are not supposed to do that and they can get blacklisted. There might an underlying problem I am not aware of. Like Zombies being counted as units and death logs of zombies might become stressful on the server clients. I don't know Rockets reasoning for disabling kill messages or the reason why they are currently not enabled.

I wouldn't go THAT far. XD.

You might want to report this to DayZ staff under Support at the top and ask for an inventory wipe. I do not think they will return your Mk48 however, but you don't want your name on the HIVE with hacked equipment. Best to cover your bases and not risk a battleye global ban for someone elses actions.

Cheers mate. Edit - What file do you use to view a persons inventory so we can check them for hacked items? Also, you are a Bean King now, Change your title in the Settings options for your profile!

Just a random update, We did ban two hackers as we had FRAPS and names which we will be putting into a support ticket once it is uploaded. I will also after it is confirmed by DayZ staff posting their GUID for other hosts to ban them incase they try to go around a global ban.

Yar. Hackers in full force on my servers too x3. I think they are upset over the recent global bans from Battleye. Gotta spend dat money to come back and get dem hacks going.

Ander announced that it would NOW be only one chopper. As it was changed after the HIVE tweak. As I explained, if it continues to pop up either it is a bug or a hacker. The new replies are over something else completely different and related to the same guys. Either way, The chopper bit is unprovable as lists alreayd posted above, but phreash and Lnxa know what to do now to help out in catching a hacker. When you kill them it will give a name saying "They were killed." Lnxa told me one of you had frapped them hacking and had killed them during it. So I am waiting to see if you can show me this FRAPS and provide a name so I can push a ban and report a ticket to DayZ staff for a global ban. It doesn't really frustrate me. I know hackers will be around, and if not for this whole Alpha Experience. I have had to accept this and find small workarounds to deal with them. Its just a game, no use getting frustrated about it. I admin because I enjoy hosting an environment for individuals. If anything I am more sad that it is ruining your guys gameplay experience and I am unable to prevent it. Its noones fault really, its just due to the game stage we play in. I admined in Minecraft during its Alpha and Beta and dealt with hackers all the time. So... really DayZ is just a repeat of something I have done in a different game. This explains why I have a very positive/understanding attitude towards this Alpha Experience.

You camp will come back at the restart at the items they are spawning don't save to the HIVE. I need a FRAPS, for the sixtieth time. I know you see a hacker, whatever is going on as I have many people telling me. You all are missing the one thing I need so I can DO something about it. I need a FRAPS with their name. So I can ban their GUID and post it in the support.

Indeed. I can only hope for this too.

You don't bring a server down to test anything. Thats one of the biggest BS's some server admins will tell you. You don't need to restart your server unless there is a serious problem like cleaning up unwanted data. Everyone tests this game because its Alpha. If a server is locked or constantly restarts. It needs to be brought up and I encourage it to be reported. As a server host and admin myself I can tell you that they are quite possibly full of shit. Think about it. What are you going to test every single day that requires a restart? Getting your BEC settings together? Takes maybe an hour. Then maybe the HIVE is acting up. Okay, that doesn't require a restart. That's on DayZ's end. Tents disappeared? One restart. Doesn't bring it back? Constant restarts won't help resolve a swallowed loot. DayZ even says you shouldn't attempt to restart servers to bring back equipment. If abused its well within the reasons to be reported, or the very least investigated. DayZ can look at your loot and see where it came from. They just need to know where to look and they need our help to report these incidents. Else they don't know where to look and can't prevent it.

Yes, you can. Use this link and search for the host, then check the times it restarted. http://dayzmonitor.com/ Some servers have annual restarts every couple of hours (Around 4 - 8 depending. Mine does it every six.) so if you see any sudden spikes like constant restarts, I would use the support feature at the top of the website and report it.

There is a HIVE monitor that can see how many times a server has restarted. Lemme see if I can find a link.

No, you are just over-exaggerating the point and blowing it out of proportion. It really doesn't matter what you think because it was addressed by the Dev team. All you are doing is adding fuel to your rage. But, have some Beans. They do taste good. Edit - Server Hoppers can't loot cycle because if you spawn in a building loot doesn't spawn until you move away from the building. Any loot inside the building is there because another player went by it recently. Cheers for looking like a misinformed fool, however.

Chests? There are chests in DayZ? Ammo boxes sure, but they don't respawn ammo when you empty them. What you are implying is if I kill a zombie knowing it might drop something, its exploiting. If I pick up loot to spawn better loot, its exploiting. Like in WoW if I mine a mineral vein I am not going to use it might give me a better one I am going to use next time I run around the zone makes me an exploiter. You sir, get my beans for the good laugh.

My signature is meant to be misleading. My cup of care is empty implies it needs tears. Sometimes including my own. Its left to be generalized so people can assume what it really means.

There is a difference between min/maximizing your time and exploiting. Rocket has already addressed this issue and concluded it wasn't an exploit, just a poor loot mechanic he plans on tweaking. I have a teacup for your tears, however. c[_] .

Indeed. It still reinforces the point.

My post was dripping with Sarcasm

Duping is okay? When did /this/ happen. I would love to hear a post about this from the Staff saying using a broken game mechanic intentionally is okay. By your logic, I should be allowed to sit in the forest and dup some L85's and NVG's. Then if I get banned I will say its, "Its legit Bro, Yolo." Dupping IS spawning in items. You are causing an item to be spawned in a location it shouldn't be and abusing it. I hope you get banned and that chopper flown into the nearest lighthouse. Reported Topic for admitting to an exploit.

An update to our members that there is potentially a patch coming out on August 1st for 1.7.2.5. http://dayzmod.com/f...25/#entry500771

To randomly chip in. Those of you who are waiting for an admin or dev to step in and say if they can or cannot do this, or if they warned them or blacklisted them, they are very likely not going to say it here. When dealing with an issue on a server, say if someone reported US128, it doesn't matter what is said in that thread. If DayZ staff feel a problem with the rules or incident, they are likely to contact the admins in question and talk to them personally because it deals with their server and isn't exactly public information on what they tell to other server admins or who they warn. Privacy and all and I support that. Just don't expect DayZ staff to come in here and give a statement on how they wagged or did not wag their finger at the server. x3. What punishment is or is not dished out is wishful thinking by all individuals. In short, I expect to see this thread locked whatever happens in the end. With Warnings/Blacklist/FingerWagging/nothing happening after it happens. We will likely find out about it through a GMS thread or someone posting victory/defeat somewhere else.

Page 6 Page 5 has some good discussion about increasing the admins or why they shouldn't be taking their server down for so long because members aren't online. The reason I myself would like to see it blacklisted as giving them a warning doesn't fix anything... They still have loot they have abused their privilages to protect that they have to USE on any server they like including their own. Do you think anyone who isn't on the GMS clan on that server has what they have or even close? No... On the U.B.C.S. servers we are lucky to have one car without another clan swiping it. x3. But our server is up 24/7 and that is the game we play... The risk we take. US 1038 doesn't have that risk. The have that risk when they select to have that risk and have people there to defend their camp.
