I fail to see the shitty attitudes on the forums excluding the obvious trolls. I also fail to see how supposed shitty attitudes on the forums would impede the server you provide/provided.

If you think that the rules are draconian then you are making the right choice. I am sorry to hear this. This isn't even a game or a mod; it's an alpha. You should be testing it not playing it. Things will sort themselves out when the alpha gets more developed. Until then, be smart and make the right decisions.

I would not do that. That is the exact definition of what a rogue server would be.

If that's what it takes... Good luck with your blacklisted server, bro. Maybe you should have just donated that money to charity.

*boring next post*

If it's not the M4A1 Camo SD, but the M4A1 CCO SD I'd get rid of it.

I just checked. Their server is labeled bad under protection, but because Signatures are disabled. BE is still enabled.

I'm not saying Omega was right, or that your server needs blacklisting. While reading that thread, I did find Omegas case a little fishy as well as yours. There was no clear cut evidence for either party besides the 3rd party post (which doesn't say much in regard to the actual situation if it actually occured.) If Spyder was the only one banned during that time frame, then I have no reason to disbelieve you. I also have no reason to believe as well. However, what I am saying is that that specific case 'could' be abused. If it can be abused it will be. The main point of my post was to say that admins can be abusive and that the logs will not show if the person D/C'd during combat. With that, admins will win any way you look at it. Against exploiters or fair playing people. Sorry if that post is misleading. Show me logs of a combat logging. It needs to paint me a clear picture of what happened. Otherwise, it will just show me that the player disconnected. Thus, proving what I said "Admins can claim "he/she D/C'd during the fight.""

Where did you get an M4a1 CCO SD?

I want to point this out first.... I know exactly what free reign admins are capable of and that thread in the link above proves it. If there is no clearcut evidence on either parties side, the abusive admins still win. They ban the victim due to their own ambitious personal reasons and get a slap on the wrist. The banned victim ends up having to relocate to a new server, cheated out of their well earned spoils of victory. Admins can claim "he/she D/C'd during the fight." In the above link's case, Stalker abused Omega's concern about announcing his ingame name on the forums and claimed Omega was never on the server. The logs will not prove a thing about D/C. A well organized group can raid the admins camp, kill all the inhabitants and then proceed to get falsely banned for D/C; and the logs cannot prove anything. For all we know, the admin just waited until they disconnected and banned shortly afterwards. This is why admins shouldn't ban for D/C. Banning for hacking (video helps), sure; D/C, no. Unless there is video evidence it should not be allowed.

Stay banned, please.

It's readable. What they did is wrong.

In case you haven't seen Server General or Ban appeals, he isn't far from the truth. Granted, 50% is just some number he pulled out of his ass, but the number of admins abusing their power is too much.

It clearly sounds as if they are hacking, but you still shouldn't ban them. There is no clearcut without a doubt evidence that they actually hacked. I would just be weary of them in the future now that you know what they could be capable of.

I'm sure alt+f4ing will be bannable in the future, or it will be incapable of doing. But as of now, Rockets only two things are racism and malicious talk. Of course, if there's a hacker who is blatantly hacking no one will blame you if you ban them.

I'm glad this topic was posted. Too many admins are taking matters in their own hands and it will hurt the community in the long run if they continue to do so.

They shouldn't. I've been seeing a lot of these cases lately and it's hurting DayZ as much as exploiters/hackers. Rocket should really step up on rogue servers and server admins. For example: http://dayzmod.com/f..._40#entry270400 "The server hosters pay a lot of money to host the game that you are playing for free. Give them the benefit of doubt, and show them a bit of respect." ^ They shouldn't be given the benefit of the doubt. If they're a rogue server or server admin they should be dealt with harshly. > http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/3061-kicking-of-players-for-clan-members/page__st__20#entry31257

Lose*

They do not; those people are called vehicle hoarders. Usually clans hoard a lot of the vehicles at their base not to mention loot. Loot does respawn, however.

+1 for blacklisting You are wrong. Dead wrong. This is COMPLETELY against the rules. This is how the game works. It's Trust Issues: The Game. I as an individual have to worry about trusting others and if I get back-stabbed I can't ban the person. It would be my own dumb fault. You' date=' sir, failed at DayZ and failed at being a server admin. Again, as an individual, what compensation do I get from hackers? Do I get my own personal server to lock-down and "clean up" damage occurred to me? No. You should have no reason to lock a server other than to delete hack-spawned items. Hope you get blacklisted, you hooligans.

I have the same problem.
