Unbanned. FYI, though: Radios aren't in the game, and 80% of the time the server bans anyone for them, they're also carrying other illegal gear.

Thanks, Fraggle. That1neguy: I do my best to keep up with the current best practices in reducing hacking on the server, but much like most other servers, when it's full at 50/50, it's nearly impossible to stop entirely. Again, if you'd like to be unbanned, I will, as long as you agree to quit using invalid (hacked) gear in the server. I'll also need your in-game name you used at the time of the ban, or your GUID.

Unbanned.

I would, but the only entry for "beer" is "uK_Beer", and there are no names with "Downer" in them. Either give me your in-game name or you GUID, and I'll unban you.

Thanks, Legacy. I understand that it's a gray area, and I understand the issues you mentioned. That's why I'm willing to unban anyone that asks me to lift their ban, as long as they promise to stop using invalid equipment in my server. I want to follow the rules the best I can, and until I get a firm no on this, I'm going to continue to do it, as it's worked wonders for keeping the hacking down on my server since I started doing it about 8 days ago. It's not fun when everybody is running around in the server with godmode weapons. Again, though, if someone from the dev. team tells me I can't, or if someone shows me where they've already said it, I'll stop, but I really hope that doesn't happen. I've even had a few regulars on the server drop in to Teamspeak just to tell me how thankful they are that I'm finally keeping the hacked weapons out for the most part.

uK_Flappy: The truth comes out after evidence is presented. BeerDowner: I don't look at players' inventory as they join. It's an automated system. Wells73: Please stop giving me empty threats.

uK_Flappy: EDIT: I removed this copy of the relevant server console and RPT log parts which proved uK_Flappy had logged in with 2 hacked weapons and some hacked ammo, so as not to leave such user-specific information in the forums. If you have an MK48 in the screenshot, that only means you changed your primary weapon after joining the server.

Again, if you're using the latest mission file, Global and Side channels won't even work, so it's moot. I'm not telling you how to edit your mission file. Just use the latest official version, and you won't have a problem.

I'm not "running my mouth". I'm being very civil, and I explained my actions. If you were banned for having a BAF_AS50_TWS, it's because the server's logs showed you logging in with one, so there's the evidence part. Again, the rules don't say one can't ban for hacked weapons, and they do say one can ban for exploits, as long as there is proof, which I have.

It's located in the MPMissions directory in your Arma 2 OA installation directory. The latest version is available in the client area at http://support.dayzmod.com/

I'm sorry I didn't see this until now. You'll always get a faster response from me if you post at http://clansm.net/ . At this point, I don't even have logs that go that far back.

If you have the latest DayZ server mission file, available in the client area, only Direct, Group, and Vehicle channels are enabled, and Global is enabled for admins.

It doesn't say we can't ban for having hacked weapons, and it does say we can ban for hacking/exploiting. Having a hacked weapon is a form of hacking/exploiting because it gives the person doing it an unfair advantage over what the game normally offers. It doesn't appear you're interested in level-headed discussion, though, so whatever. Think what you want. I care a lot about the rules the DayZ team have set, and I've stood up for them many times in these forums. If I believed this were against the rules, I wouldn't be doing it.

Prove it. Also, read my last post. Rocket has never said (that I know of) that server admins can't ban for hacked weapons. All he's said is that people won't get global-banned for hacked weapons. EDIT: Wells73 edited his post above dramatically after I made this post.

I try my best, but it's not easy. Full 50/50 servers seem to get hit the hardest.

I'm sorry that I didn't notice this until now. I'm only finding it at this point from Googling, as it isn't easy to search the forums by server number. You'll always get a faster response from me if you post a thread at http://clansm.net/ Anyway, I have never shut down the server after having been killed. If it stopped, had an update applied, and then started again, that's it; that's what happened. Also, whenever I apply updates, I always give a warning in global chat via RCon.

You'll always get a faster response from me if you post a thread at http://clansm.net/ Anyway, yeah: I've been ramping up the anti-hacking stuff dramatically since then, and the tools available to admins to stop that sort of thing have always dramatically improved. We still have hackers, but it's down a tone from what it was a month ago. For a while there, there wasn't much we could even do since mostly everyone had working BattlEye bypass methods.
