Have you don't any item interactions? I mean as in sorting gear between tents and then logging off for a bit or changing server then coming back to the one with tents? That's essentially what I was doing just before the ban, running back after dying to glitched rock, looted some tents on the way. Then got back to my base and sorted some gear between our tents. Picked up some spare gear my mate and I had farmed, swapped to server I had been on earlier where I had found an atv, emptied it of the gear of value then jumped back on to mine and woopa. Global ban.

No idea, I imagaine somewhere, in some corner of the world someone has had a small win getting unbanned. They hold the keys, so surley they can/have at some point reversed it.

Always cracks me up that saying. I'm a free diver lol, would love to be able to hold my breath for more than 5 min lolol

Yeah just keep at it or if you're like me keep mailing, I'd 7 hours shy of 24 hours since my first one. Typing up my next one now, with come choice words. Still working on the official request for information angle. Also trying to see if I have an friends in law over in Ger lol.

No idea, I'd expect not. Logically, that information is saved on the DayZ hive. They only block your GUID.

I summed my feelings up on 4 words :) and it was in relation to my opinion of the wall of silence. And thank you Dingus.

Yes the Ban ID's are unique to you. Again please keep it on point of what you were doing around the time of the ban, specifically for my interest item/inventory/storage interactions. We're all in the same boat with regards to the ZOMG I FEEL CHEATED ABOUT LOSING OUT ON $30 I SPENT FIX NOA!!@!@!!11!! But that will get us nowhere. Keep it clean, and efficient. Also RE tents not to sure, you shouldn't need to replace them after every patch. I've only just started using them myself after roaming for 99% of game play so far. I should also mention I lost my NVG, ghillie m9sd, m4 sd and 24 slot pack by dying to rock while swimming in the ocean. Luckily had some spares, ran to the tent for an hour + got the gear on, then pretty much banned lol. Wasn't a good night.

Make sure you send them the Global Ban ID, starts with a #

http://www.iuscomp.org/gla/statutes/BDSG.htm German privacy laws incase anyone else is interested.

Yeah I've given up trying to figure out what it is, I suspect itemid's others GUID spoofing. Could be anything. The wall of silence will only flame the flames of discontent.

I also have 10+ years experience in corporate comms & managing unplanned network events and customer experience/expectations for a large telco. So they can suck my left nut, if they think I will go away and won't bitch like pro. Busy reading up on German privacy law & what rights I have if my personal information is held by a german company, even though I'm not a german. There is a way to going about these things.

I can be pretty persistant, at the moment I am calm like a bomb, the down time will earn browny points with the MRS so I can go fishing. But I'll send one every 8 hours from now on. I have a half dozen domains registered for various other projects that I can use as well. Even thinking of getting some of my german mates in on it. I am pissed off, it's unfair and I won't give up. Even if it means keeping it up till the standalone comes out.

3 emails now a still not response, will have them another 3 hours, till send another.

Please don't turn this thread into a "I WANT MY MONEY BACK THREAD I FEEL CHEATED" That's not going to help with anything. Keep it on point please. What where you doing just before your ban? Looting a body? looting a tent? moving shit around your inventory?

I wouldn't know how to tell a weapon was hacked in even if it shot me in face.

Could be a bug, that thinks we've activley spawned/hacked an item in. Which I think it might be.

Either that or it's bugged out & thought we've picked up a hacked item.

Yup I got a global ban last night, I have no idea why. Have send my appeals to BE and still had no response. Which is bollocks. I have not hacked/cheated anything. I logged on to a server to empty out an a nice ATV I had found on it earlier, then tried jumping on to my "home" server and got the global ban message. Pure bullshit if the picked something malicous on my PC and haven't told me.

So just wondering (and I've done a few searches for info on this) does all the loot at a crash site spawn at once? I ask because my mate and I after not finding any crashes sites for our first month, are now just about tripping over them now that we've figured out how to look for them. 5 sites in about 6 - 7 hours played time now we had the same thing happen. There has been an initial spawn of a medical box, we've then checked the grass all around the chopper to find nothing else (including scrolling for things spawned under the groud). But then we've had weapons start spawning after our initial sweep. An example. We picked up our first ghillie suit from a crash, then walked around the chopper 2 or 3 times checking for more loot other than the medical box, and then we've had a SAW spawn where the suit was. Have also had other weapons spawn where previously there had been none. TLDR, Is there a delay on the spawn of items, or do they appear at the same time as the crash site? Should we hang around the area longer?

Nope all of this has been on foot, but does that mean there is a spawn timer and it doesn't spawn all at once? So possible bug? or working as intended? hrrmmmm

Hahah you paid $60 for arma

I was standing on the bench in the barracks near the bottom NE side the NWA and got my legs broken, which teleported me too the roof of the building. Which then knocked my out for a few min, which then aggro'd every zombie in visible range, which then resulted in me waking up, using morphine and bandage, and then going ape shit spaming shots to kill the zeds at the door. My buddie couldn't reach me for a transfusion so I went prone and did the sideway roll of faith off the roof and sruvived the fall unscratched. Fucking love this game, I actually do.

You can't fix duping in the arma 2 mod, wait for open beta/closed beta on the stand alone. FFS

I'm curious to know what OS everyone is running, I'm on a 32bit version of XP (upgrading soon) turns out using the "default" memory option caused the receiving bug. Been running on very high for over a week now with no problems.

I got shot after finding my first ghillie suit the other night, then while sneakng around elektro some guy was firing away at things with his 1911, so I sought him out and set up an observation point of the church from behind a rubish bin, he came out the door with a glow stick and 1911 out. I saw he had m4a1 cco on his shoulder. So I took that gun. I then stuck with my play style of moving slowy checking corners keeping to cover. The plan was the get the hell out because I had unloaded 2 AKM mags killing him and the zombies it attracted. I doubled back a few times made sure no one was following me. Took me 20 minutes to get to the edge of town and the hill by the coast. I think had two options, make a break accross the open ground for the hill (a fav spot for snipers) or carry on sneaking up the coast and cut in land later. I decided to head up the hill. I broke my first rule of observing from cover. Took two steps out and got shot from the hill I was heading too. Respawned and started again. I died because of my mistake, if I had of stuck to my rules I would have seen him (which I did on my next toon, right before he shot me again) and I would have been able to flank him. With out pking (please go play 1990's UO, or EVE to find out about how many times your tears about dieing will fill a cup) this game wouldn't be what it is. After all this I still consider myself a carebear. I only kill if I need to0, and I kill for loots if I want it. Been running around NWA and stary for hours now on my latest toon (1st time up there) and have been going slowly, and safley, with no issue even found a chopper and my first m107 woop woop.
