Regardless of how much of a ahole he is/was you don't ban the server owner. You deserve the ban. You should have just left when he began acting lime a 12 year old.

On a private hive whatever gear you have you will only have on that server, and ones connected to it. Public is one that whatever gear you have will be on every other server. That's the only way I know to explain it. I cant say if you have a private or public one.

@ OP, you kick/banned the SERVER OWNER and you wonder why he/they did the same to you?????? Your reasons for doing it are irrelevant.

Is it a private hive server? If it is, yes you can, if it isn't no you cant. People lock them anyways even though it is against the rules on the public hive.

You were acting immature. It's not a claim, it's a fact. When dealing with someone like UK, you have to talk at a level they understand. When you posted exactly the deal was it made sense, was just saying "I got it". Didn't see any hate speech what so ever. So, you began the "childish behavior" with your first post, if you would have just said what you did in post 14 in post 4.

Wow, way to pull the thread out of the graveyard.

Look, I am on your side on this one. Just saying sometimes your approach is lacking. I would rather have a cherry pie.

It is funny you telling him to go outside, you have no life when you are the one ranting.

I put people like you into the same category as hackers. You advocate the use of hacked weapons, thus you support hackers. Let me answer this before you even say "Well, then you must put Rocket in that same category", yes I do. It is simple as pie, the item is not on the loot tables, and people playing cannot get it by legitimate means, so why should anyone be able to use it?

Ahh, the "No PvP or ban" thing is not allowed.

Look, I have no problem following rules that make sense. Telling me I can't remove someone from my server even though they are using a hacked weapon, that doesn't make sense on any level. Refine the rules so that they do not favor hackers/cheaters, and I will follow every single one, leave them the way they are, then I will continue to remove hackers/cheaters from the server so that EVERYONE has a level playing field.

I do not know what else to say. Certain weapons/vehicles were removed from the game. There is a rule that says you can't re-introduce them to the game. Then there is a statement that says, you can't hack them in, but if you find one of the weapons that we removed, go ahead and use it. Now, my reasoning and every other SA who kick/bans reasoning is, if they removed them from the game, then they didn't want them to be used (I think everyone can agree with that, right ?) SO we ensure they are not. We can't speak for why they just don't say it, but I am using the brain I was born with.

People are to damn sensitive today.

Please use some common sense.

Very simple answer and this is what I did. I told you that the weapon was not a legitimate weapon and to discard it. If you didn't discard it, I would kick you, if you returned with it, you were banned. Those that are using the Auto kick for it have said that if you come to them, they will explain why you were kicked/banned and remove it as long as you get rid of the weapon.

You realize that if you are found taking video/photos of an American base you will be arrested also.

I have to agree with one point, If you came to the base I am stationed at and started taking pictures without permission, you WOULD be arrested. Do I think they were monumentally stupid for taking pictures of a military base, yes. Do I think that they are innocent, yes. I hope this gets worked out.

Yah, you should just let them say whatever they like. You should not post hard evidence showing that he is not being truthful. SMH.....

I'll try and make this as simple to understand as possible. The weapon does not spawn in game, the weapon is not in the loot tables. The weapon was REMOVED from the game, I do not know the exact reason, but none the less it was REMOVED. If it is no longer legitimately obtainable in DayZ, possession of it is cheating. By possessing it you gain an unfair advantage over other players. Please give me a reason other than "Because Rocket said" why possession of a illegitimate weapon is not cheating. Yes it bothers me, because it defies common sense that anyone can believe that using something that was removed from the game by the developers of the game is not cheating. I have provided reason why, the weapon is no longer legitimately obtainable. You can only get one by hacking it in, key word is hacking. It provides the player possessing it an unfair advantage over other players. Giving the reason "Because Rocket said so" is not an opinion, you're just regurgitating words said by someone else. Have an opinion of your own, mine is clear.

I have words, words that I wont use here because i'll get a ban. There is no reason what so ever, including the word of Rocket, that should make it alright to use a HACKED weapon. Use the brain that is in your head.

If people cannot see how utterly ridiculous it is to allow people not to hack weapons in, but allow people to use them weapons, I don't have words.

TBH, I don't care, and either do a lot of the SA's because allowing people to use the weapons is unfair to other players who want to play the game THE WAY IT WAS INTENDED TO BE PLAYED. TBH the rule allowing people to use hacked in weapons says to me that either Rocket doesn't give a damn about cheating, and Rocket doesn't give a damn about hacking. You can't be for stopping people from introducing hacked weapons, and at the same time be OK with people using them, that is plain stupid. There are no consequences for kick/banning people for it, how do I know this, I did it for many months, server was never blacklisted. There are threads on the OFFICIAL DayZ forums advertising scripts that do it automatically (being endorsed and used by DayZ Team members), and the threads are not being locked or deleted, the Team members endorsing them/using them are not being "fired". It is cheating and anyone with an ounce of common sense would realize that.

Well, quite a few SA's kick then ban for them. DayZ Team Members endorse the tool for auto kick/banning people with them. Nothing will come about if you kick and/or ban someone for using illegal weapons. Again, they were removed from the game for a reason. Now, if the CREATOR does not want them in the game, then anyone who has one in game is cheating and not playing the game as it was intended to be played. One can only guess at why they have that asinine rule that says only people who script them in can be kick/banned. My guess is that they just don't care enough and are to busy to change the rule.

The weapon is not in the game, it doesnt spawn. If you use it you are cheating, why people cant understand that boggles my mind.

Ahh, when it comes to "Claiming Victory" over something as insignificant as this, yes I enjoy it. I enjoy seeing how pathetic some people are. Thought you didn't have anytime for this stuff, now that you are a big college boy, BMOC!!!! :lol:
