Love the song by Bascht! ❤️ Just saw him live in concert recently at a boxing event on NWA at the GermanDayZ.de - Chernarus Survival server.

Or perhaps watching TV is too boring for you? How about some good old-fashioned GameBoy action while you camp at NWA? This exclusive content can only be found at www.GermanDayZ.de.

I bet you have seen many servers with cassette tapes or radios, but have you ever encountered a real TV in Chernarus? Check out our servers at www.GermanDayZ.de where you can find a fully functional TV and various VHS.

Oh, isn't he? Okay, then lets call them entities, if we wanna start nitpicking. He damages the reputation of these servers without proof. What Ivw06 could have done is to relativise his statement after people started criticizing. Like so, for example: "Okay, I sadly do not have proof against these specific servers, only my word. But cheating in general is a big problem, and even admins are sometimes in on it." Bam. End of story. Literally no point of contention whatsoever. Everyone on here would have heartily agreed with him. But he didn't. I'm all for educating people and many others have tried to explain to him where he went wrong. When reading his posts I do not think he actually understands why people are criticizing him. Which is a shame. When exactly did this go from "cheaters in DayZ are bad" to "evil cyber criminals destroy the world we live in!"? I mean, sure you are right, cyber criminality is a big worldwide problem. No one disputed that claim. But this, again, is not the point of contention. It's the accusation without proof people objected to. I think we are both talking of different things when we speak about "proof". From your statement I take it that you mean "proof of who did it". Of course, it is extremely difficult to find the people behind online crimes. What I mean in this context is "proof that anything untoward happened at all". Well, I think this is enough from my part, as we are going in circles again and again. Perhaps @Ivw06 can take away at least some tiny bit of input on how to better structure arguments in the future, that would be to his own benefit. Also, apologies to the guy who started this thread. Cheating is bad, especially on public servers, we all wish something more could be done than what BattlEye currently offers. But that's wishful thinking only. It's up to the private server owners to sort out the mess. There are some rotten eggs among us. However, there is one DayZ server for every 3 players out there, so it should be fairly easy to find alternative servers if you are unhappy with the one you currently play on. Bye my lovelies. The weather outside is beautiful and I would much rather sit by the pool and work on my tan.

Indeed you do not see many cheaters on our servers, because we take cheater reports seriously and have banned over 2000 Players since 2012. And with every report we ask for several things: details on who, where and when ( so we can check the logs accordingly) and screenshots or a video because the logs alone are not always conclusive either. As admins of GDZ we do have access to the logs and can verify ourselves whether a cheater report is accurate. So @drgullen you are absolutely right, if you are the admin of this server you can do a lot yourself to check whether an accusation is true or false. But this is not the case here, we only have Ivw06's word that so and so is actively condoning cheating on their server. And that is the problem. Him "feeling" like it was cheating is no proof either. As many people here have already tried to communicate. So yes, as a server admin I do have a problem with people publicly badmouthing other servers without proof. It's bad form. There are a lot of paranoid crybabies out there who love to talk trash about admins. And we, the general public, have no way of knowing if Ivw06 is an actual cool dude who really witnessed cheating or if he is one of those crybabies. That's due to the glorious anonymity of the internet. Therefore, for him (and his accusations) to be taken seriously, he needs some form of proof.

When someone badmouths someone by name they had better have proof. I agree with you, videos do by no means give the full picture, but they can at least give you an idea of something fishy gong on. They are a first step in legitimizing accusation. Especially if it is like Ivw06 says and he got shot through walls. That is actually pretty straight forward to prove. I have seen enough of these kinds of proof videos in my time as server admin. Official servers are a completely different matter, Bohemia should indeed keep better watch. And they could. The game logs a lot of data and there are means to log even more movements / actions etc. I guess they simply have no interest in investing the manpower / money. Be that as it may, this is not about official servers but private ones being bad-mouthed without proof. Also, this is not about you claiming all admins are cheaters. It is about Ivw06 making that accusation. You just came late to the party and jumped on his train, so to speak and keep defending him. So it's really not against you, it's against him. Ivw06 does not specify which admins, he generalizes that "no admins do their jobs". He then goes on to accuse everybody disagreeing with him of being cheaters themselves (he does this several times on the first page alone). People take offence at that, and justly so. Ivw06 also starts calling people "jerks". Furthermore, he asks rather irrationally that Maverick should prove to him that the admins did not cheat. Which in itself is a bit of a paradox, as you cannot prove a negative. That's like asking me to prove I haven't murdered anyone. How the hell am I supposed to do that when what makes me a non-murderer is exactly the absence of proof. To summarize, after making irrational demands, repeatedly accusing everyone in this thread who speaks against him of being a cheater and after insulting another person, Maverick asks Ivw06 if he has overindulged on some substances. I find that a very good question indeed. Because Ivw06's behaviour seems really odd. Might just be a personal trait of his or might not be...we will never know. As you find my last statement a bit puzzling, I would also like to explain to you what an analogy is. I took Ivw06's nonsensical line of argument and transferred it to another everyday example. In this particular case "breaking and entering". As such, my statement is meant to be nonsensical because I am simply mimicking Ivw06. You realized the flaw in "my" argument due to the simplified example I provided. Very good. So now you should very easily be able to discover the flaws in Ivw06's logic by yourself. And to your last point: I will address the slights Maverick presented against Ivw06 when you address the slights against everyone else in this thread presented by Ivw06. Because that's where it all started. Perhaps you can now realize that Ivw06 is not worth your time or your effort. His conduct as well as his line of argument are rather poor.

Nah, dude. You obviously don't get it. Ivw06 was very specifically accusing several community servers by name of having cheating admins. Maverick asked him to provide proof that these exact server admins were cheating or allowing cheating on their servers. Many (not all!) admins are often accused wrongly of this exact same thing. So asking for proof is absolutely reasonable. Ivw06'S "go to the server and check for yourself" doesn't cut it. Why would we do that? We do not p lay on these servers and it's a waste of our time. If he really wanted to warn other people about these servers, then he could just post a video (use shadow play or whatever). Cheating or cheating admins are not "impossible to measure" as you pointed out. If he does not have a video (some form of proof) then its just bad-mouthing, nothing more. No one in this thread has denied the existence of cheaters, neither on public nor on private servers. What people have an issue with is an overly generalized accusation that ALL admins are cheaters / condone cheating and that one person is talking trash about other server admins without providing proof of their alleged misdeeds. I mean, I could just as easily accuse you of breaking into my home. Where is my proof, you ask? Well, a lot of people break into houses and that's a fact, ask literally anyone. So obviously you must be doing the same and are guilty of breaking into my home. My word should simply be enough. Sounds a bit silly, don't you think?

What is happening in the workshop? Is Bohemia aware this "purge" is basically breaking their own game? Many of the mods getting a strike at the moment actually fixed broken Vanilla items. And most of these mods are free. No one is making any money, so why strike them? Bohemia what are you doing????

I get an error when trying to join a private vanilla Server: Client files contain PBO which is not part of the server data. Already tried to let Steam verify the game files but still the same error. Any ideas how to fix this problem?

To celebrate Walpurgis Night (which is a custom in Germany celebrated on April 30) we lit a couple of witch fires on the OneLife server, enjoyed a few bottles of Vodka and listened to some Russian music 😁 Everyone stayed peaceful during the celebration.

Yeah we know, that fruit is still too plentiful, especially if you spend some time at the same location. We are working on adjusting this. Edit: With the re-start at 12:00 PM GMT+1 apple spawn should be drastically reduced. If this works out as expected we will adjust the rest of the fruits as well.

As of yet there is no way for server owners to manipulate weather / the seasons in an easy way. The winter mod basically does it all (which is why it is so f***ing amazing!). There is a Summer Mod as well, but that one is purely a visual adjustment. If some creative modders, or Bohemia themselves, come up with a working seasons system (incl. temperature, crops, etc.) we would love to have "the whole" year on our server.

A few impressions from this round's winter mod... kudos to the creators of the Winrter_Chernarus mod! It makes the OneLife server even more demanding. Stay alive guys, don't freeze to death and see you in Chernarus 🙂 Thanks to @halfmoon79 for the screenshots!

The new server cycle is now running for 4 weeks. We already have plans for the next round with far-reaching changes for the server, but they still need to be tested. So there are only a few "minor" innovations for the round that started yesterday. If you wanna try your luck in the harsh conditions of GermanDayZ.de OneLife you can do so until May 23. May the odds be ever in your favor! 😋 Changes: New contaminated zones Map Change WINTER IS COMING! Number of weapons, ammo, food, animals further adapted New mods: Winter_Chernarus Cl0ud's Winter Gear MilitarySnowgear Radiation Zone Dark night We noticed there is still a bug with the Winter mod that keeps players from getting warmed by the fire. We already contacted the modders and hope this issue will be fixed soon.

So? We have players from many countries 😊 not just German-speaking ones. If you can get along with people who speak English with a little (or in a few cases a heavy) accent, then you are more than welcome! No idea, what the ping is from your location to our server though. Might be too high...
