"this alien plasma cannon can't be illegal to use because it is not named specifically in my nations gun control laws". While I understand your frustration at being banned, these weapons are not meant to be in the game at all - They are not meant to be used at all. That goes for both players and hackers. Remember that these are guns that, as far as the mods universe is concerned, does not exist. As an adult, if you start playing around with random stuff you've never seen before, you will eventually get your fingers blown off. It's not just against the rules, it's a rather silly idea from the viewpoint of an authentic Chenarus experience. Also, to sostronk (and anyone else blabbing on about BE). Please be a good boy and take some reading classes, the OP has posted already that this has nothing to do with global bans, only on a single server.

You are going to be getting so massively flamed for posting this, but I will still give you props for one thing at least - Having the balls to not only realize the shit you've done, but coming here and admitting to it publicly and accepting what comes your way. And yes, you do deserve all of the hate and the ban. You cheated in an online environment, end of discussion. To all others - Feel free to hate him for what he did (a fairly simple cheat that did not actually harm anyone), but at least be mature enough to keep it civil and respect his willingness to open up and admit to his actions.

wufnu, did you have a point in there somewhere? Of course he is a lone wolf, but most lone wolves would not tear apart the entire camp just for the giggles, they'd take what they could and keep the rest for a later raid. Having your camp raided is entirely reasonable, I never said anything else. But he needs to be honest with why he does it instead of making up reasons. The OP assumes that he is taking away power from item-hoarders and large groups, but he cannot in any way confirm that. It could just as easily be a small family that players together and needs multiple vehicles to transports everyone when they go out for food (yes, this is a fairly silly example, but my point stands). Getting sniped or otherwise killed by random bandits is part of the game, destroying camps likewise. But coming up with some vague justification based entirely on preconceptions for it, rather than just admitting he's a douchbag is just pathetic to me.

I think I would almost respect you if you weren't making stupid assumptions to justify it. Going around assuming that anyone with a camp at the edge of the map is a server hopper and that items in camps need redistributing? Retarded line of thought. Loot is not influenced by how many tents there are and not everyone is a server hopper. Be brave enough to admit that you do it simply because you like to wreck other peoples work and we can all respect your actions as those of a simple douchbag.

Good post, deserves to be stickified, either her or on the Ban Appeals forum. Provided the information is good of course :)

Admins don't have access to kill all commands... Only hackers do.

Bear in mind - alot of the previous posts were him setting up his "20 words or less" and replying to things in the many 1.7.1 threads that were created, it was not necessarily development-oriented. Now they are taking their time to get the next patch out and until it drops, the amount of posts they make will likely be smaller. I'd wager it will pick up again slightly once we start uncovering horrible bugs in 1.7.2 during large-scale testing (and have a chance to feedback on it).

I found 3 helicopters within 800m of each other on one server (EU), and then spent 4 hours unable to find even one on another (DE). That does not mean that the spawns are more or less prevalent on any server. They all run the same mission file, hence there can not be variations in loot outside of simple RNG flukes. It makes bad luck streaks a lot easier to stomach if you decide it's the server though. I went through 6 supermarkets, 4 churches, 3 barns and a good dozen wooden huts without finding any compass, watch or weapons at all on my current life. Was it fun? No. But it was random.

I have taken rather severe damage from single hits on occasion as well so it is not impossible that zombies simply do enormous damage sometimes. At 6k blood though, you likely got knocked unconscious and bled out or got eaten. Less likely to happen if you keep your blood above 10k whenever possible

Random loot is random. Amazing isn't it?

M1014 and Winchester takes different kinds of ammo. Are you looking at 2rnd shells for the double-barrel or the 8rnd for the m1014? Try right-clicking and see what sort of message you get.

I just cleaned out 4 crashed helicopters today, plenty of loot so keep at it. They do spawn in different locations after a server reset and they can take a good while to find any. I've seen them pop up in the same location on different servers, so it seems like they have a bunch of places that they can spawn and they are randomly chosen on restart.

If you need the download, go grab the torrent if at all possible - takes a few tries for the request to go through, but the torrent file is small so we are putting less strain on the servers than trying to get the whole damn thing down. I will be seeding with 15 mb/s, for at least a couple of hours and on request later (grab me on Steam, or through PMs here). I can also send you the .torrent file if you are having issues, but in that case have patience as I may not be able to reply right away.

If it is a BE problem, then no one here can help you as they do not have control over those systems. Try contacting the BE staff themselves if you are sure it is related to that.

This needs to be seen by more people - the aggro is quite significant in the latest patches, but this is proof that single zombies does not need to end your characters life. Similar things can be done in the large brown barns with side entrances (get in through the big double doros, duck into the side, go prone and GTFO as fast as possible) by the way, although it seems a bit more hit-n-miss.
