http://dayzmod.com/f...for-atlanta-73/ This shows how random the banning can get if an admin has "free reign". Nothing but a load of bullshit coming from each of the parties in the debate on that topic and not really any clear video evidence provided either. Apparently it did not stop the admin from banning at will though.

Have you swapped computers by chance? - I imply that both your player profiles may be on both computers raising a conflict of some sort?

I can think of atleast 3 heli crash sites I've found that aren't on your map, might be why they have been removed.

Did you check gametime in-game or just by servername? Also, there are clouds.

Yeah, definately not more than a 100 times though. I think.

This idea is so good, I feel I've heard it before.

Don't want to be a douchebag about it. You do as you see fit on your server, I will not be affected by it. I just hope you wont bend your own rules to your own benefit as you are probably not going to post a recording from each person you ban, and even if you do I'm sure some people will find a debate in every recording aswell. Gl and may you find beans on your travels.

I agree the quote itself wasn't on this topic in particular, found you another topic though where he agrees it's an exploit. Nobody is talking about going as far as banning people for it though. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/6718-disconnecting-to-avoid-death/ As you can see it is being worked on, but banning people from the entire game and sharing these guids amongst the network while there isn't always 100% proof involved is stupid. You will be punishing people that don't deserve it, while all u have to do right now is bear with it on this alpha patch.

The exploit is being worked on though. Hopefully we wont have to bear with it a few patches from now. Some servers ban for the exploit regardless, or atleast that's what their introductory messages said when I connected. Can't exactly recall which ones though. Pretty sure they were UK servers, incase you'd rather make home in one of them.

I believe you are not aware of the fact that mapmarks can be made by any player who has a map and seen by any player who has a map across the server.

Right now unfortunately even if people DC at the moment of death their body vanishes in a fast manner. They will still be dead, but no one (not even them if they go to a different server) will be able to loot the body. I think!

Doesn't say anywhere to that you are allowed to ban the people and share their guid amongst the community, it does however say he will be fixing this exploit. http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/3061-kicking-of-players-for-clan-members/ In short, their are only two reasons why you, as a server owner, should ban a player on your server. Those two reasons are: Malicious talk, and racism. You may not ban a user for stealing your loot, killing you, spying on you, etc. "from the man himself" bullshit alright.

Not sure, I dislike noobs who ALT F4 just as any other person here, but banning them is like saying "you'll get punished for disconnecting in a game" - players should always have the right to disconnect whenever they see fit. Only problem right now is that there are no countermeasures built-in, e.g. : to keep their entity in the server for 5 seconds after the disconnect. Directly from one of Rocket's posts in the Announcement Forum: In short, their are only two reasons why you, as a server owner, should ban a player on your server. Those two reasons are: Malicious talk, and racism. You may not ban a user for stealing your loot, killing you, spying on you, etc.

Unlucky, this is DayZ. If you don't want people to steal your stuff, protect your stuff. You didn't even see what happened while you make lame accusations.

If you have the +1 the hive knows you have it and the hive should know the dude you shot is most definately dead.

Maybe we should introduce a comb to make sure our hair looks nice at all times and make the game even more realistic. Btw I don't see my teeth dying by drinking soda the few days that I'm actually alive.

Bought through steam?

I know combat DC's are gay, but that's no reason to start talking bullshit. On Topic: You don't get a murder if he gets away and bleeds to death on another server. If he lives or not depends on the fact he's bleeding, wether he has bandages and if he's at all unconscious.

I'm not completely against the idea and I could actually see it work, I might even see it improve my gaming experience, but I feel it's one of the last things the game needs / should implement at this point in time. Things like the journals from the threads you linked to are magnificent ideas for later on, right now I'd just like to see enhancements on things that are already in the game, but just not working properly. The other day I killed my friend with a tent... I would review this in whatever amount of months from now. I enjoy reading your suggestion topics though and it's fun to see community members trying to make a difference / have this dedication. Thank you.

It helps if you both write down where you're from, no point for someone giving you contactdetails if you're only going to be online at 8pm when it's 3am overhere.

Keep in mind zombies are not your only enemy. But you play the way you want and with the inventory you want, if you don't like airfields there's still plenty of other places to get some loot.

did a system restore, got back into a server that worked, can't join many other servers though, constantly stuck on "waiting for host"-error now.

Have the exact same issue.

Ask and answer yourself some questions, do I want to shoot zombies or players? Do I like walking into towns or do I avoid them as much as possible and if so what kind of environment do I play in? Personally if I have a hatchet, matches and a hunting knife I don't even bother carrying more than one piece of food around either. Since a couple of patches ago (I don't recall which one), animals are spotted a lot more frequent so you can sustain yourself off them easily. For drinking it's always nice to choose canteens over soda cans for obvious reasons. If you are a complete lone wolf and don't interact with anyone in whatever circumstance it's probably useless to carry around bloodbags and epi-pens aswell. So it all comes down to your playstyle as other people here have mentioned.
