    IRC ban for asking a question

    Kinda wondering which part is the most interesting: Questions regarding pirating. Using words like 'hiring'. Calling someone 12 year old for not seeing you as a positive contribution to the cat. Not playing the game cause of a community-ran IRC. The comparison to guns and cops...

    Your new Huey?

    Prepare a 50 cal to 1-shot them all and laugh about it.
  3. And are you actually on the same server and location as your gf?
  4. What do you get in singleplayer environments?

    [DayZMod] The Dayz Statistics thread!

    Did you read the thread's content?
  6. the exThreads parameter doesn't define that it is allowed to use 7 threads ;).
  7. I'd start by changing exThreads=1 to 7.
  8. Not anymore.However, I think the most interesting out of anything is that once you only include people who lived for at least 3 hours, they usually live for days, while the average is still only a bit over 6 hours. North vs city campers? By usually live for days I mean that while the average isn't all that high, you suddenly get a lot of really high results that clearly standout, but still a fair bunch of 3-6 hour people keeping the average down.
  9. Maybe they ban for 1 minute with a reason?
  10. Someone send me a PM to remind me to have a look at this tomorrow (6:09 AM).
  11. For sale... Inception's home server name! (inbe4 someone takes that for real, no worries we will split the profit Inception.)
  12. Again, Killing someone doesn't make you a bandit. In essence the guy you killed (and who killed your friend) wasn't a bandit as it counted as a murder, which is exactly what my post some time ago was trying to explain. Killing people != banditry.
  13. Find me your player ID and I will let you know if you are a bandit or not :P.
  14. It's changed. The src license has been updated, but it seems I don't actually have commit rights to the compiled version, so I need Sawyer to take care of that :P.

    Built in Microphone?

    It should use the one that is set as your default device in your audio settings, so yes.
  16. That highly depends on what your argumentation would be.

    Sick of Hackers

    Different game, different gameplay, different rules....
  19. The stats aren't entirely bashing your theory ;). I think many people see someone who kills another player as a bandit. They're not. I've said this before: Please keep in mind that in order to become a bandit you have to get a low humanity. Your humanity rises both from time and giving blood bags. The fact that people don't trust each other is something that both the community and the game can work on. Going by all the latest Q&A interviews I think it's fair to say that some system to make it easier to communicate with friends is likely to happen, at the same time 2 people not trusting each other is an entirely different issue and situation over people who only play to murder. If you are a person who plays this game to kill people, you WILL become a bandit as you will hit way beyond the minimum # of kills required in a certain time frame if you try to hunt people down. The low bandit numbers don't indicate that you can roam around freely and have an ~80% chance of not being shot, what they do indicate is that over 75% isn't in the game to hunt and murder everyone they see 1 to 2 miles ahead, which I think is a fair indication that banditry is not an issue, trust is. The problem is that the options are limited in the mod-phase of the game. Once extra features come in, like tunneling (and you can start setting up a Metro2033-like underground city), I'm sure you can start working on coming to agreements with other settlements and only become really threatened moving from underground hub X to underground hub Y, as the bandits are likely to hide in the tunnels somewhere. There are other features, like power generators and all that, which will likely end up with similar situations making being friendly and cooperating worth it over killing the other person for his gear. In essence some private hive servers will already have this future, saying they are really awesome that they got it working before the real DayZ servers, while all they did was go to this link --> http://forums.bistud...-Pack-and-Addon ;). In the current stage of the mod there aren't many reasons on why you'd want to friend up, but over time that will change, without nerfing bandits, but by giving the survivors a good reason to survive, by teamwork.

    Reporting your own(!) threads is likely to be the best option. That is assuming it doesn't end up with 50.000 reports to keep it as a live status of the # of people in your server ;).
