ptk (DayZ)

And how do you fund it? Create a waiting list for people to rent servers? I doubt that will go well with server rental companies. Or do you propose that Bohemia foots the bill? The only way your suggestion would work is if the game became subscription based and bohemia regulated the servers with the additional cash and I doubt Dayz players would like that...

I would like to add that if servers were only public, then there would be less severs overall. I would think that more people would be inclined to rent servers if they had the option. More servers=larger structure for acommunity. Surely, you will find dickhead admins, but those are in any server based game. Same goes for "donations" reserve slots, advertising etc... And they aren't going to change regardless of what game it is. I'm not sure how hard it was to find a normal server in the mod, because i played it before all the script stuff came about. Nevertheless, a good filter system should help some in that aspect. Public and private both have advantages, why limit one for another?

The answer to your riddles are, and in this order: Three False Nantucket Only if applying the grease, not when it's applied to (in) you Lsd is one hell of a drug False The chimichanga Gl out there my friend...

I would poo in this thread but then i would get shit on my phone, and the mods would hide this post... No offense op, sardines are fine too!

Or just shoot everyone as soon as you see them. That way, you won't be a bandit at all, just a kos'er.

I was thinking we could use pokemon cards to trade... For other pokemon cards!

So, yea there are alot of times where i disagree how some of the modertors handle things but unlike alot of you, i can understand why they do it. You just have to take into account that no matter how "objective" one feels when engaging a topic, he or she will always bring a set of prejudices to the table and the moderators, being volunteers gamers who love Dayz are obviously going to be somewhat biased when it comes to negative criticism towards the game and the development team. This being said, they usually aren't ones to blatantly overstep their boundaries and let these personal biases interfere with their judgment. Particularly, in the real.of negative criticism, the poster is usually fueled by some sort of grief or anger which trickles into their criticism, whether blatantly or intentionally and again, usually offers nothing cronstructive to say, thus effectively creating a shit post. This makes it very difficult to have to moderate because at the very start, emotions are already rampant within the OP, point of view. With this present, the thread will almost always devolve into a shit post, regardless of what topic was brought to light. I rarely see anything posted that is critical and yet constructive as the posts are contructed out of emotion, rather than rational thought. Now, add this to the number of posts that are made here daily, and the number of times the moderators have to deal with them. I can't blame them for becoming somewhat cynical, the same way a police officer does from seeing bad shit day in and day out. Also add in the fact that they are humans as well, not just an avatar. They are subject to the same emotions as the posters and subject to mistakes/errors in judgement, as all humans are. Now, combine all this with the FACT that Dayz is one of, if not the most, CONTROVERSIAL game (s) that has ever been created! So of course emotions run high in these forums and to say they don't or that you aren't an emotional bitch here, you are lying to yourselves. This all makes moderating these forums a rather difficult job. I don't always agree with the moderators, but i can understand where they're coming from at least. These forums need to cut back on emotion and add in a healthy dose of rationality...

We never kid in here either, Never...

Well of course i "safe" my money, that's why it's in the bank :)

The blow to the head was just lucky on their behalf and as a fresh spawn, they have nothing so they have nothing to lose by attacking you. Think about it, if a fresh spawn knocks you out and kills you, they acquire alot of gear in a very short time. If you kill them, they had nothing to begin with, so they lose nothing but a few minutes of time.

I used to blow up frogs with fireworks :( what's your poison?

The zombies are fine for where we are now, but i hope they add in more witches soon... No clue how this got to 5 pages when there is a zombie thread stickied above...

Lol. Perhaps after smelling zombies all day, the musky aroma wouldn't be so intoxicating?

Though they overlap, there is a difference in being bored and being burnt out my friend. Perhaps you're the latter?

Guys n gals, it's not rocket science. The Walking Dead has Rick Grimes and Darryl, whereas Dayz has a bunch of guys pretending to be women... Case closed!

Rick, listen to me... You're allowed to come back Rick. We all get to come back...

Maybe he wants to know where you're from because he is looking for someone near his home to play gijoes with him...

I like what you said, but how do you know who is humping cabbage?

The development process is slow, because sometimes the development process is slow...

I remember when i cried after falling off my bicycle for the first time. I cried loudly and for a very long time. I cried so hard that my mommy came rushing outside and had quickly scooped me up into her warm embrace. After calming me down by gently kissing my forehead several times and whispering "it will be ok" in between them, i left my mothers arms and got back on my bicycle... So what's your excuse?

I have to agree here: I personally don't see a difference in calling them either infected or zombie as there was a "disease" and it caused "death." It's obvious that the corpses (ie, the dead) reanimate somehow because we see them moving about everytime we log in. In short, the criteria for calling them both infected and zombie have been met. Neither is wrong...

The problem is that "bandit" is subjective. I mean Robin Hood was considered a bandit and a hero depending on who you asked...

I wish we could hand out tissues and "hang in there cat" buttons along with our beans...

In a time full of rampant slaughtering of thy fellow man, emotional unrest, dramatic bouts of dehydration and starvation, loneliness, depression and with a bleak future ahead, i have come to know them as... Friends (they always want to hug you!) :)

I think he would need far more info than your location for any sort of id theft, but as hunstman said best to just ignore and move to another server... Probably a hack troll...
