Our server has the same 'issue'. Havent had the time yet to do some reading on this but I know its possible to enable sidechat and showing whose talking. Ive seen this work on other servers before. Quite annoying when people are voicespamming :-(

You need to set VonID = 1 in your .armaprofile difficulty settings file, if you have access to it:

suppose you are both running veteran where display of player id is disabled by default but this could be disabled in any level.

you can change this in cfgdayz\Users\cfgdayz\cfgdayz.ArmA2OAProfile

search for vonId=0; and change it to vonId=1;

of course you need to change this for the level you are using. as stated above its most likely under class Veteran but might be different in your config

you know this anyway, but just in case:

the level to be used is configured in cfgdayz\server.cfg under class Missions in difficulty = "Veteran"; <- or whatever level is used in your config

edit: ups, too late - already answered by tex
