tommy290 941 Posted November 9, 2013 you can forgive players for feeling angry, even now after the facts have emerged, it's use in the video still seems unnecessary and distasteful. Again, the key here is parody. http://youtu.be/1a0L3Z1A-RM Exaggeration for comedic effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeHarveyEnfield 311 Posted November 9, 2013 Again, the key here is parody. Exaggeration for comedic effect. I appreciate the metaphor and I understand the subtleties of parody.however if you post a video clearly showing the use of 'tools' which are largely responsible for the near ruination of this incredible mod expect a backlash. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drbane 944 Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) Hehe cant belive this thread is still going :P Just to throw it out there, none of our admins play the game they just admin, so infinite ammo or not is irrelevant. Edited November 9, 2013 by Drbane 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AmberHelios 2071 Posted November 9, 2013 infinate ammo is not available for admins on the server. the server in question is my test server for my antihack where i test out hacks so i can minimise the effects they have on our servers. all the admins actions on our servers are logged to a file that if any players on our server wish to see they can see it. what we can do in game on our servers is replace lost items due to glitches. none of our admins play on our servers just maintain them. this is not a promotional video in any respect. if any of our playerbase feels unjust they are free to contact me as are any of you. to say that we have these hacks at our disposal on our servers is unjust as we don't perhaps you should ask first instead what was an internal joke about the players views on our servers turns into an attack about my own personal ArmA server. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly Electricfuneral has ignored every single of my posts regarding this and completely ignored my valid arguments, which leads me to the feeling he's only trying to troll anyway. I do not think it's worth even trying anymore, as our playerbase has clearly stated none of the accusations are true. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeHarveyEnfield 311 Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) what we have here is a few guys having fun, sharing a private joke which should have remained private. it was startlingly unwise to post this video, that much is certain and again I say, true fans of the mod will always be moved to suspicion and anger when they see footage which contains the use of the toys of cheats. The fact that it seemed to be posted in the name of musty, a group which boasts moderators from this very forum on its staff seems almost designed to create dispute.

Statik (DayZ) 2695 Posted November 9, 2013 The 7 pages of flame, tears, and period blood have changed me. I can't believe it, this is actually all hacks. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeeHarveyEnfield 311 Posted November 9, 2013 true mod fans also realise that dayz is a hack on arma indeed. however you may have noticed that if there is one thing that unites all decent players it is this.the use of scripts or hacks by players within the mod is un-f*cking-acceptable. and this video shows precisely that, albeit in a rather different context, unfortunately that context is not made clear in the video itself and as such anyone who views it and loves dayz will be repelled by it. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I owned a server, no way would I let a vid that displayed the use of a mechinism that could and has been used for cheating have my server name be attached to it. To each there own tho. This isnt an attack on you or your server, its an attack on cheaters, hackers, any mechinisim that can be used for cheating and the use of any type of these mechinisms in any type of situation. In my book when you cross the line to use these mechinisms then you've crossed over to that team no matter your excuse to use them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baker. 1484 Posted November 9, 2013 no right thinking person, after reading all explainations can accuse this guy of cheating however as has been said by others it is extremely unhelpful for 'responsible' members of the community to post a video which clearly shows the use of hacks.especially when that group tries to hold itself up as a paragon of virtue as far as representing this game is concerned. cheating no, silly gaff yes and you sir are the biggest troll on the thread every post you make is inflammatory and insulting, you should stop throwing stones inside that glass house you inhabit, it's rather embarrassing. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zfleming12 395 Posted November 9, 2013 Y'all need to step back and chill the fuck out. Freaking out over a parody video. Now if this video showed actual mliciousintent against actual players I could understand but it doesn't and if you cant understand that then it is no longer an issue. These people have been around a lot longer then any of you and know bit more of what goes on here. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inception. 9443 Posted November 9, 2013 (edited) Locked at OP's request. Now I have to read through a bunch of pages. The fact that it seemed to be posted in the name of musty, a group which boasts moderators from this very forum on its staff seems almost designed to create dispute./mod hat off Designed to create dispute because of the foolishness and ignorance of those who feel that using an administrator tool on a test server is, what appears to be, against human rights and morally wrong. What the DayZ Forum Team for which I am a part of conduct away from the Forums is irrelevant to an extent and thus it need not be worried about, discussed nor brought into the context whatsoever. (I know not even of where you think that MustyGaming boasts moderators.) I promote fun and adventure to no ends and so if a few hard-working people who rarely having time to play the game wish to have fun by putting together a video for their community, in which the community find it hilarious, then by all means I will let them do so. /mod hat on.
