Dallas DayZ Madness 1400+ Vehicles Ban Appeal

Recommended Posts

As a backstory, I saw this server advertised on Reddit with screenshots of rows upon rows of choppers at the various airfields. Looked pretty kick-ass, looked it up on DayZCommander, and it is nearly at full capacity with 68 out of 70 slots full. Tons of vehicles and tons of players, sounds like a fun time, and it certainly was. A whole bunch of interesting stuff happened during the hour that I managed to play.

I'll tell the story of my last life, since I'm pretty sure that something in it triggered this ban. Anyway, I spawn at Solnichniy, immediately get picked up by someone inside a red car who drives me South. West of Elektro, we encounter a bus, and I switch from being a passenger in the car to being a passenger in the bus. Driving towards Cherno, the bus collides with a different red car (VW), causing it to explode and kill the 2 passengers. The bus stops, I get out, and because of what I can assume to be desync (1400 vehicles + 70 people), I break my legs and lose half my blood since the bus had started moving again. I crawl towards the two dead bodies, and check them to see if they have morphine. The first guy has none, and the second guy is unlootable, which I assume to mean he is still alive, even though he has been unconscious for about a minute. I shoot him in the head with my makarov (part of this server's spawning gear), and he still is not lootable, I empty the magazine into his head, and he remains in the unconscious position. I decide that he probably didn't have morphine anyway, and kill myself by clicking respawn. I spawn in debug with the broken leg icon and the same blood, but without any of my gear. I assume that it will take me to the you are dead screen shortly like it often does with a laggy server (1400 vehicles, 70 people), so I run around for a bit while waiting to die. I run 100m, then get kicked for Script Restriction #8. When I try to log on again, I get the message "Admin Ban (DayZ Anti-Hax 25.11.12 18:26 (Hacking Damage)))", and I am unable to play.

If it was any other private hive, I wouldn't be overly sad, there a plenty to play on, but there are two big reasons why I'm taking the time to appeal this. First, I'm accused of hacking, which I do not do, and it pisses me off to be considered a cheater when I did nothing wrong (I understand that this ban was obviously automated, that is why I described thoroughly what lead up to it). Finally, a server with this many vehicles and this many people is a rare thing, I was really looking forward to playing on it, and now it seems that I can't. I posted in both the reddit thread that introduced me to the server, as well as PMed the OP, but I have received no response yet. One of the OP's comments leads me to believe that he is not the admin of the server either.

If anyone who reads this knows the admin or plays on the server and might possibly see the admin online, it would be greatly appreciated if you could direct them to this thread so they could unban me.

tl;dr- I got unfairly banned from a server for "Admin Ban (DayZ Anti-Hax 25.11.12 18:26 (Hacking Damage)))", most likely due to lag caused by an unusually high player/vehicle count.

Bump.

Also, as an update, I found the admin on reddit, but they have not responded to my PM.
