There, fixed for the qq. I do say this, if i do excesive ghosting on my server i WILL ban them....i mean logging out of a populated server then going to a low pop one, getting behind your enemy, then logging back in? ive already had a hack on my server spawning choppers.....he was....dealt with. The server may be up in down for the next for days and im sorry for inconvince, i have still got a few more bits of tuning to do. Crashed the server an hour ago we used a couple satchel charges we had stored up and took a few buildings out.....killed my server but I am glad to see everyone that has shown up, we peaked out at 35 players today good to see my server picking up. Fast load times for me and the rest of my clan. Post any problems or hacker reports in my server to me with times so i can send in the log files. thats all and have fun

Can't ban for combat logging Can't ban for logging to get rid of zombies. Enjoy your new server. Follow that ruleset, and I guarantee you're going to have a thread in the server report forums shortly. The most you can do is kick the person when they try to re-log back into the server. Or throw a short-tem ban *no more than 12 hours* on the offender, like I do.. but I only do that if it's severe. Ghosting repeatedly. Etc.

Hello fellow bandits. As of 30ish minutes ago Make76, Facey and Blitzer[NL]* of UK 7 server no longer are in possession of their Huey. It was dark, me and a friend of mine were looting in Cherno for a backpack for him. We decided to check the Fire Station to see if one might've spawned there, but unfortunately, or so we thought, it didn't. Minute later we decided to check the supermarket and something unexpected happened... A huey violated Chernogorsk' airspace and was circling above the fire station(200-300m away at any given time). Looking at it and thinking how to prevent this outrage, my friend reminded me that I had an AS50 in my backpack we looted from a group of players just the day before, on the same server, UK 7(props for not ghosting and playing it fair: Crunkit, m4rc12 and Graeme). The ammunition I had was for AS50, not the M107, which meant that a single shot to the engine block would take it out. My friend kept me updated on the range to target while I've waited in the Fire Station tower for the tresspasser to slow down and when he did, to turn away or prep for landing, I took my shot, one shot, right to the engine block. And the rotor sounds started to fade, the pilot and one of the gunners ejected from the chopper while the remaining crew member(I'd assume Make76, since he was the first to die) remained in the descending aircraft, firing his machinegun. The two ejected crew members did not live long, as they were killed seconds later either by falling to death or helicopter explosion(lost line of sight at that point). Citizens of Chernogorsk rejoice! While myself and my friend draw breath, no aircraft will be permitted above our beloved city! P.S. My friend did get a coyote backpack from one of the bodies before putting them to ground, to honor the fallen.

Not true, if you gather the right people you can still form groups and fight eachother, there would still be enough individual players, no server hopping, enforced rules like no ALT-F4, glitching, hacking, ghosting because they wouldn't be able to unless they want to play elsewhere. Community hosted servers wouldn't be there for nothing.

We were at Devil's castle today, but we won't be tomorrow. The most fun time to attack us is about 2 hours in while we're winding down and looking for some action. Ghosting is lame and I expect you won't be doing that. On behalf of the employees whose lives I've made harder, you're welcome ;) For my information I'd like two rusty cans and a sack of no less than 29 marbles. If no one gets it yet, FTC (at the least) enjoys a challenge. We're in no ways angry about legitimate attacks. These attacks only further the community and the experience for those involved. I'd like to ask that the other groups in the Coalition think in a similar way. Real bandits aren't our enemies. Our enemies are the kids that hack and ghost and give bandits a bad name.

Squad fights have a tendency to not be a battle of who can AltF4 the fastest Simply because you end up with multiple corpses to loot/guard, noone wants to abort in a firefight just so the enemy can loot his fallen comrade So far I've only had one 2vs6 where my friend and I basically struck a hornets nest of ghosting with a goddamn baseball bat It was like fighting ninjas, you saw one appear in a bush, engaged him, and away he went, just so he could reappear again in another location

Awesome.... i had something "Like" that last night, Me and my buddy was up against 3 players, originally 4 we took one out before we noticed they were 4, Suddenly they just make a rush for us gun blazing out in a open field NW of Cherno, We quickly but realized that they were not to be found on the field so we did a quick move.... they just keept on Ghosting. Combat logging. Everytime we saw one of 'em fired a few shots he logged out, The Third time this happend, we decided to just log out.. Cuz thats not a fight...

You are not permitted to ban for suspected cheats or exploits of a non-server-disruptive nature, including but not limited to ghosting, unverified cheating, duping and similar, UNLESS you have solid evidence, IE logs. - Dante-shawn As scummy as server hoppers are, it's not a valid excuse to ban someone or a group from your server without the appropriate evidence that seems to be lacking here. Unless I missed something. -MONSTER

Nice thought, but the way this MOD game engines works be way to easy to get into the houses via ghosting...also to many zeds in towns...out in the forest...hard to find...no zeds....safe to return too if you die... AJ

I've been debating making this thread for awhile, but here it is. I want to have a relationship with an honorable bandit. I'm looking for someone who delights in the thrill of the hunt. Someone who has stories of their exploits and is recognizable. Someone who can say "yes, I kill people, but I do it without hacking, exploiting the game, or ghosting." Really, I'm looking for the kind of bandit that most survivors would like to talk to and hear from - someone who is a respected enemy. Send me a pm if you think you are that person.

Hmm, almost a bean-worthy story, except for the part about ghosting in from another server, If they didn't have enough guards posted to stop you sneaking in, that's their problem, but ghosting is just cheating by another name, and if you have to cheat to win, then you shouldn't be playing.

Ignore the survivor whos butt is aching from pain and humiliation. He's mad for the wrong reasons and not for the right. He should be mad you ghosted, not because you blew up a school for the mentally challenged. 6 vs 1 I think that's an accomplishment, even if it was ghosting. However you shouldn't have ghosted, other than that, cool story.

It was in the hills south of stary, looking into the tents. So yes, it very well could have been someone ghosting, or even just checking the spot out. Either way, I miss my beautiful SVD :( I didn't even get to shoot anyone with it! As for thermals being removed from the game, I kind of hope this is true. But I see on both the wiki and dayzdb pages, it doesn't mention anything about that.

So I'm back on the coast after running to the NWA My regular server went down so, I joined another server and got gilligan'd! Is this to prevent server hopping/ghosting? If so it is a huge fail! Or is this just another bug?

Here's my perspective, and I only speak for myself - not for The Coalition or it's member organizations. It would be ludicrous for me to dictate to you how to play the game. That wouldn't really be any fun, for me or anyone else. What I can do is encourage. I will encourage TMW's members to play on The Coalition's servers. I will encourage TMW members to take their patients on those servers and play on them if they choose. I will encourage my people to advance the culture that The Coalition is all about - having new experiences by not killing just for fun. CQF will probably have their guys run patrols, but their people have volunteered for just that kind of thing. If your group joins The Coalition, how you craft your role in our new society is completely up to you. I personally like the idea of a bunch of lone wolves running around who are not going to shoot survivors, but instead attempt to find mutually beneficial relationships with strangers while maintaining their lone wolf playstyle. I can firmly state that I do not condone tactics and strategies that I would call "not in the spirit of the game." This includes things like duping, combat logging, zombie logging, ghosting, hacking, and exploiting. It should be said that I do not consider camping loot spawns to be an exploit.

It would be so easy to link all these private hives though. Frankly I like 1 hive per sever, it prevents a lot of exploits such as ghosting and duping.

topics that say game "xyz" is dying are ALWAYS wrong. edit: exactly the other way 'round. we need official servers with clear rules, free of hackers, free of "you killed me so imma ban you!" server-owners and free of server-hoppers for loot or ghosting. the standalone will make everything better.

In the same vein I would sincerely suggest adding a killlog that allows you to see who killed you and where that person was (killshot cam for example), possibly with a few minutes delay or something like that so it can't be abused for ghosting. The argument and chance that there are server admins who might abuse this info to take revenge on people is ridiculously small compared to the benefit of being able to identify/track the scum who sees and kills you through walls and entire buildings.

Last night a few people on our server had been affected by ghosters, A few friends and myself witnessed this first hand, We have been trying to find in the .RPT file the locations of the login and out positions so we can submit this in the cheat section and also flush our server of anyone else doing this douche bag move, We have the players name time and then a string of numbers similar to this, PLAYER NAME time PASS false 1234.12 1234.12 136 Its along those lines, Now we thought the 4digit number followed by the decimal was the coords of there log in but it turns out when i log in at say 056-056 on the map the .RPT file hasn't got any numbers to even come close to this number, So we are a bit confused now and unsure how to prove this and read the .RPT file and keep playing by ROCKETS and the DAYZ team's rules for hosting a server. If anyone could help me and let me know how to find the coords of logins so we can stop these guys from ghosting on out server i would be mighty happy. Thanks in advance James.

You bring tents to a near by location you'll be logging over to attack other people. You leave the tents on your server. Basically you bring a whole new meaning to ghosting.

Basically it comes down to this. Yes, you were trying to do something for the RRF community buy building a base, we can see that. The problem is you chose to build it in the middle of Elektro right near the harbor, which is a heavily trafficked area. You also made it way too public and way too easy for bandits like us to get the drop on you. Also, I like how you bring up the point " This is a video game, it's damn pixels." I 100% agree with you, but your anger shows that you may be taking this just a little too seriously. Like you said, it's just a game, everybody is going to play it differently. We played against you very fairly, there was no ghosting, and no hacking ( until everybody got teleported at the end, we have no idea who did that.) It was by far the most fun I've had in this game since purchasing it. And the fact that we were able to get a spy into your teamspeak made it all the better. Once again, thank you for being good players, you guys put up a good fight. We all enjoyed ourselves and would gladly go up against the RRF again. Also, I think the largest mistake made on the RRF's part besides location was the fact that all of your overwatch was watching the hills/roads, not the coast. And your guy with the L85 was just standing on a building out in the open, made himself a very very easy target.

Thermal M4A1 was found in a tent at Black Mountain, you guys really must like this "Filipe" guy or something. Don't really care what others do, as long as its not a deliberate exploit. Again, we were kicked by the admin for no apparent reason. This put us on alert. My cousin logging out and "ghosting" after death really doesn't concern me after that. I'm sorry that Dak misrepresented what was actually going on. We asked him not to post any accusations without proof. I don't necessarily believe the admin was cheating or hacking. Why would an admin need to? They can pretty much do whatever they want. Hey, they paid for it. But if they are going to be listed publically I expect to be treated fairly by the admin. EDIT: L85, not M4A1, Derp.

Thermal m4a1 and a cousin who is technically ghosting... yep.. no problems here.

That was May, this is August. What sucks is that ghosting is allowed in the current rules. :(
