Kensu, when you're about we an issue with a tent that is duplicating items & not saving correctly. Would appreciate if you could look into it as we dont want to get into any trouble Regards Arabian

Thanks for the heads up, Yeah I checked the BE site and read their FAQ.. It is harsh, but its fair I guess & I got no qualms with that. I've never let anyone use my copy so that's at least one thing I'm certain of as for the other ways in which my key coulda got stolen I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.. I'm a notorious downloader and although I only download from trusted sites and scan every download to make sure its clean there is always the chance that something slipped under the radar I'm working on contacting BE to get the ban overturned, I appreciate all the advice and if they wont overturn it then I'll just wait for the standalone

That's the furthest thing from the truth and you clearly dont know me both as a person in real life and a player in DayZ. I loathe hackers and cheaters and I have never done that kind of thing ever.. There are thousands of people out there who mistakenly get banned because some idiot who feels he's been unfairly killed reports a player who is innocent. I've seen it dozen's of time... Even BE have said they have accidently banned people I have never ever attempted to or even remotely thought about using some form of hacks in any game I play. So please dont judge someone before you actually know the full story. As the mod who was the first to reply to this post said.. this isn't a ban appeal

Well I'm trying to email battleye support but I keep getting an email saying mail returned, apparently because their quota has exceeded and their mailbox is full so I'm gonna have to wait till monday

It's highly possible, I'm re-installing the game as it says some of the files were corrupt on steam.. if this doesn't work then I assuming that is likely the case. If it is how does one go about fixing it?

Thing is I took the appropriate measures that BE suggested to get my CD key back, which was uninstalling the game and wiping my registry and then reinstalling the game, this was suppose to have made it impossible for the hijacker to steal my key as the key would have been in use by me This happened at least a month and a half maybe 2 before I took a break from the game, so why would it happen now? Also, I'm trying to update BE through steam via right clicking on ARMA: AO and choosing re-install BE client but Im getting an error called "MISSING STRING!"

Err thank's I guess, Not sure if that was sarcasm or a genuine kudos lol. (could you elaborate Legacy?) I do have an update though and its kinda a strange incident even on my level and all I can do is best describe it and see what happens. Couple months back I was playing on this public server and lo and behold a hacker gets on, throws us all up in the air which killed us and then disconnected us. Upon attempting to get back on DayZ I couldn't and I kept getting an error saying "Bad Serial Key" this immediately told me that my CD key had been hijacked which I found strange considering that I have never downloaded or attempted to use any software to use scripts (yes I did my research on hackers in DayZ after running into the constantly) Could this have any effect on this matter?

So after months of not being on the game I decided that I wanted to come back tonight and play the game, I go about updating and getting everything set up as I'm really looking forward to starting over again.. Playing on the public hive and maybe being a bandit instead of a survivor for once I fire up a server and instantly get "You were kicked off the game (Battleye: Global ban #9422fd)" Figuring maybe its just some mistake I try another server and I get the same thing.... I even tried the private server that I have spent almost 90% of my DayZ time on and I get the same thing This is really upsetting for me because I am the last person that would ever hack or script, I actually loathe players who have to resort to those means in order to play a game or just to grief players. I have never ever used any scripts or form of hacks and I'd like to know why I was banned Attached a pic I took with my phone, hopefully I will get an answer and I pray that this is just some mistake because its not like I'd ever do something like this :(

Right yeah I'd just like to follow up on Ark's reply here. I'm gonna write up a bit about iG and who we are hopefully you guys will be able to understand us better. iG is a close-knit community of about 10 players, We all started DayZ roughly around the same time but there are a few of us who are "new" to the game and still getting to grips with it. Most of us are mature players who aren't disrespectful to other players, we will always go out of our way to assist players as long as we know they are friendly. We may have 2 choppers but we've already shown that we are more than willing to pick people up and give them a ride to wherever they need or want to go. All we ask is that you approach the chopper with your weapon lowered and dont make a hostile action towards the chopper, We dont want to have to kill anyone but we will have an M240 trained on you :P About 90% of the group will only ever fire their weapon if in self defence, I'm a friendly player and I have never fired my weapon or killed anyone that didn't shoot at me / make a threatening stance first We aren't hoarding vehicles, As Ark says we have 2 choppers... We found the 2nd chopper up north somewhere & yeah we have 1 dirt bike, 1 hatchback (which isn't being driven as told by Ark), 1 UAZ and an SUV. We are also laying off the crash sites for now, other than looking for rare ammo and ghillies You guys have nothing to worry about if you think we might get bored and go player hunting, We hold skirmishes between ourselves and in the event that we hold one while you guys are on we will tell you what town its in and ask you not to interfere for your safety. We basically never go player hunting, I think the whole us hijacking the first chopper has made people think that we are dicks & bandits and that we dont care about anyone else which is really furthest thing from the truth I have a TS which supports 30 people and you guys are more than welcome to join it at anytime and chat with us or other survivors in game. We have several channels and we have reserved the right to make a private channel for iG members should we need to discuss any confidential or classified information IP: 85.236.100.85:15177 I am not giving the password out here on the public forums as I only want survivors on the PDR server using it, if you want the password just ask for it in game and I will give it out. Make sure to save the server under your bookmarks also As I said guys, we are friendly players and we dont want to make any enemies or cause trouble on the server, we just want to actually be able to play the game for what its worth (which we can finally do here) because we are tired of having to play on the official hive with hackers and script kiddies. We honestly mean you no harm and we are more than willing to trade weapons and vehicles if people wanna trade with us
