Gogster (DayZ)

Genuine frontier gibberish.

Erm, good stuff, I think ;)

I'm afraid you're going to have to persevere with BattlEye, no one here has access to their databases.

There's something very unnerving about the way he says "yeah, you look real sweet", way too authentic!

Seems sensible, not sure what support you'll get as some people think the game is pretty tough as it is.

Really? Nothing like managing your expectations :lol:

Play on a server who have a proactive admin in charge. Honestly, there's more to anti-cheat than people getting kicked for infractions.

OK, the opinion is to go with jwiechers hosting. I will close down DayZ AdminZ (thanks to all those that registered). Over to you jwiechers :)

I'd be very surprised if the dev's weren't aware of this problem and are looking to fix it in the next update. For now, just play the game as best you can.

You can always ban them afterwards using the GUID and the bans.txt file.

Well it certainly wasn't meant to confuse or influence, however there is no getting away from the fact that jens is DayZ staff. The vote is to decide whether you want to use jens forums or an independent one. I think the 'features' that keep getting bounded around are a moot point. The IPB forums were a starting point, if there was some functionality that users think they want then we could tackle that when it happens.

Well we're 2-1 on 51%'ish of the votes, give it till this evening and then we'll decide what to do. My tuppence worth is that it took action like this just to get a mention of some website that had previously been set-up. I'm also concerned as to the functionality that people are talking about... if we cannot get a locked forum on these boards when is there ever going to be time to confirm server admins automatically through the database?

The locking is more about server owners and their friends playing to secure weapons, vehicles etc...

The lack of information about createvehicle.txt is creating confusion. Are we saying entries in this log are coming from users triggering 'hot spots' causing items to appear? If so, why is the log so small? Also if the above is true, are we accepting anything that is in the game as a normal item as ok, and items that are not as cheats? How do we know what people are not scripting them in? 13.08.2012 16:26:57: <player name> (<IP address>) <GUID> - #0 "G_40mm_HE" 870:399 870:312 [6674,2362,7] [14,-76,16] 13.08.2012 16:27:35: <player name> (<IP address>) <GUID> - #0 "PipeBomb" 870:403 870:312 [6672,2301,6] [0,0,0] The pipe bomb line appears 7 times within the space of 4 minutes.

No, only local bans for server admins.

I disagree mate, and no offence to you, it's your forum/website etc... so it's no independent. But that's possibly not the main issue here. What features do you think we would need other than a discussion forum?

It'd be great if we could get the same amount of votes on the second poll as the first - then we know that people who have voted for a secure forum has also expressed where they want it to be. :thumbsup:

Either way it's your forum or an independent one, let the people decide I guess.

I think that is a bit rich - post above has your answer.

Right a new poll has been added (you may need to delete your vote - so you can vote again) Please read the edited description in post #1. Then we'll go with what ever people want.

Me neither - but here we have a problem already - people are registering and adding their servers on the DayZ AdminZ website, the waters are muddied already. We need to decide what path we're taking and stick to it, otherwise the idea will die and we'll be back to square one again!

Not sure I agree, but let the people decide, what do people want to do?

You mean abandon what we're doing now and go to the solution you're suggesting? I don't really mind - this is not the emperors new clothes, a few things about that suggestion that cause me concern. We came to this decision due to the inaction from the DayZ moderators on these forums, which is why I think a community led forum may be better. Although I've gone with a hosted solution - it is not difficult to transfer to a self-hosted solution if it takes off. I have access to plenty of servers to achieve this. The longevity of this project may not warrant spending too much time and money on it. It's meant as an interim solution till we see what happens with standalone.

Yes, but I don't mind - please come along.

Right, lets get the ball rolling, the URL is: http://dayzadminz.invisionzone.com/ It's a work in progress. I've used IPB before but not the hosted version. Let's start with some registrations and get some admins verified. Once again I apologise for the hoops to join, but I'm sure you'll agree you'd prefer to have verified server admins only in the forum. This is not meant to take away from the community that is here, but complement it.
