Send a message to Bohemia's support about this, they may be able to give you a different key or... something? And if you have that guy's name in your chat (Skype names can't be deleted), you may be able to pursue some kind of action against him through Skype. General chat isn't the place for this. Contact people with authority. ASAP.

Incidentally, there are reports of people finding the Holo SD in the barracks once in a blue moon. It's possible that it's legit and simply isn't on the wiki (wiki's are not, contrary to popular belief, infallible). And no, you will not get banned for using hacked weapons.

Soldier Camo and RGO grenades can sometimes spawn in certain vehicles (I'm looking at you, UAZ) Even if Xeno had been misinformed (he wasn't), attacking him for being misinformed is the mark of a child looking to flex some sort of misshapen nether-penis. And by the by, That Cat, those were Straw Men. You've never taken a class on argumentation, have you? And can we avoid middle school insults like "fag?" It's just plain offensive that we still use a homophobic slur in this day and age to try to insult people. Try being a little creative with your insults (or better yet- let's not insult people at all! Because maturity is good for you) Good golly, miss Molly- kids these days.

Wait until a server restart. It should all be back.

I stopped sneaking in 1.7.1 I realized the power that weaving through buildings and trees has. Short of needing to stay silent for fear of humans, there is no reason not to just bolt through zombie hordes and lead them through a building that has both an entrance and an exit. Once they're inside, the town is free to loot for a little while. The inability for zombies to attack while moving, run while inside buildings, or to attack you from the front while running has made surviving against zombies a joke. Instances of zombies waiting inside buildings for you seem to be lower now too, which was one of the only ways they could get the drop on you. Now? Pfft. I worry more about starvation than zombies. Except one-hit bleeding. That happens way too often. (I realize that seems contradictory- I'd like harder zombies, but I don't think making you bleed on each hit is the way to achieve that)

Rocket's official position is that you cannot be banned from Arma II. You can, however, get banned on an individual server if an admin kills you, finds your gun, and manages to remember your name well enough to ban you. Keeping hacked items is not a bannable offense. Just a morally grey area.

People outgroup each other because it's easier than empathizing with each other or understanding others' circumstances or perspectives. Designations like "CoD kiddies," "script kiddies," "carebears," "bandits," survivors," etc- they're all labels to distinguish quickly between people with whom you have a varying philosophy in one regard or another. They take that and apply it universally such that these "others" are basically aliens that have no humanity whatsoever. Then they don't have to feel bad for hating them. Psychology is fascinating.

If by "consequence free," you mean someone had to pay 30 dollars to brick their game to get you some weapons- then yes, absolutely consequence free! Just because YOU don't get banned doesn't mean there isn't a consequence...

That's weird... The G36 uses Stanag rounds...

I'd guess someone took it out and lightly crashed it. Does a bunch of damage to most of the vehicle parts, but doesn't blow it up unless you really plow it into something.

The vacuum of space kills 100% of all humans exposed to it without protective gear. Did I win?

6 successful trades later, I have found this to not be true. You just need to be cautious about who you trade with and what the stakes are. I've never shot or been shot at during a trade so far.

I've independently conducted four trades now. All complete successes. It's easy to ensure a good trade by promising to Alt+F4 if you're betrayed. That way, your corpse disappears and no one gets anything. Sure, someone could go way out of their way to grief you, and that's a risk, but they won't get anything out of it. [i know Alt+F4 is regarded as a shitty thing in this game, and I agree, but using it as protection against griefers is something I'm willing to do] Alternatively, have sniper cover and do the deal in a large, open area away from the public.

Bump- Would love to hear something official about this problem. Sounds like multiple people are experiencing it =/ EDIT: I mostly want to know if it's worth it to scavenge or.... do anything until this is fixed.
