Smedly (DayZ) 1 Posted June 28, 2012 It's very similar to servers having hele's and others not, some were here at the start and others (like mine) have just come online, so mine is 50 because of that rule, but older ones can run lower.. and have heles.. lucky guys :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weaser31 0 Posted June 28, 2012 Don't you have something better to do then post this, I run LA server 1 and i bought this from a server host. Our server is always full and the advantage to a 25 slot server is it runs better for people that don't have a good pcs to run this game. So go outside and do something with your life instead of making this posting this stupid post on rules. Without us paying for servers you wouldn't be playing. If this is breaking any rules then this needs to be brought up by rocket with all the server host not some random narc in the forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm really just trying to get an answer from the devs about it because it seems like 25 slots is a fine number for most servers. That being said, rules are rules which is why I was sort of looking for an answer to this. Also, I host my own server so I'm not sure why I wouldn't be playing if it weren't for you.OP is a tard.Servers created before that rule came into effect are exempt from the rule.I searched before posting this and found nothing saying that was true.

Zoop 343 Posted June 28, 2012 YES YES! Blacklist ALL those servers. Bad people running servers for FREE for you, but they limit the slots. Bad, bad people, yes.Don't you have something better to do then post thisClearly not. There's always somebody who wants to play cyberpolice. I just hope he has protection against backtracing or else all those BAD server hosts are going to hack him and consequences will never be the same.Seriously, I wish people would fucking stop trying to play the police. Take it up with the individual server admins or the DayZ staff. Stop always trying to play little Mr Police Man on the forums. Those servers are there for YOUR enjoyment, free of charge.

weaser31 0 Posted June 28, 2012 Well you made a huge list of servers with 25 slots, You could of just asked can i buy a 25 slot server. If my server gets blacklisted Im going to be pissed because i follow all the rules on our server and the community loves our server. I have never heard that you need 50 slots to host a server , because i would think our server host would know that since he has to get our server setup through rocket so our server communicates with the database.

ikshadow 12 Posted June 28, 2012 Actually the OP have a point.Devs should enforce certain rules, like why some server are still allowed to have side chat if it was clearly stated that it should be removed .. ( so should server made before that rule be allowed to keep it ??? )The fact is playing in 25 player server gives you huge advantage over the 40 and 50 player server as the chances you will get killed by another player are 50% lower. Iam not saying go fix it now during alpha but if DayZ some day actually becomes a game it should stick to same rules for all servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

managu 1 Posted June 28, 2012 I'm not saying you guys should be blacklisted or anything. really?Read your first post Either the rules need to be changed to reflect the fact that lower slot counts are acceptable or action should be taken against the servers listed above if they continue to use slot counts below the ones required in the DayZ rules.

I really don't care how many slots you use. I do care whether the rules make sense, which they currently do not.The amount of hate I'm getting from this is just childish. Cyperpolice? When did I ever say I was trying to control what goes on here. I spent 20 minutes making a list to show how many servers don't currently meet the server rules posted in the section.

Please stop trying to blast your ignorant rhetoric about how it is "bad" or "good". I claimed neither. You're sincerely acting like a child.EDIT: From a sticky in the Server General section"Please also note no server provider is allowed to provide servers below 40 slots, or 30 within low bandwidth countries."

weaser31 0 Posted June 28, 2012 If the rules are Minimum slot count of 40 why are there 25 slot servers on the dayz mod database. I dont think all those servers are pcs at home , these are from server host that have to deal with the dayz mod dev team to get server files needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
managu 1 Posted June 28, 2012 I confirm that you did the Police! You could just say: "There are servers that have 25 slots but in the rules of DAYZ noted minimum 40 slots" I have answered: "read the rules: The minimum slot count for new servers is 40. We highly recommend running a 50 slot server, however. For new servers!! This post is dated June 11, 2012 and modified June 18, 2012.which means implicitly that all servers created before June 18, 2012 are not subject to this rule With a bit of intelligence that's understandable Do you understand?when I bought the servers Dayz at the host it was 25 slots minimum for a reasonable price, this rule was issued after 40 and now it is for a minimum price a little higher. You had your mind soon! Those servers do not pay the players a bit of respect for them THANKS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kane (DayZ) 0 Posted June 28, 2012 I don't care about the ones that have 25 limit and up, but the ones that have a cap of 5 and under are just plain stupid, you seem to have missed those servers from your screenshot since there are many with caps of 1-5 people.Edit: Did the guy below seriously have to quote the entire first post?

goblinshark 5 Posted June 28, 2012 They are "running the servers for the game." It's a fucking volunteer service that they pay into. There are QUEUES for people wanting to PAY FOR SERVERS to support the community. There's more inqueries than there is space. So follow the fucking rules, it isn't a goddamn advanced science.Stop trying to make players feel like you control them cause you and your buddies pay for a server, I would GLADY pay for a high speed 60+ man server for over 300 a month to help the community.

goblinshark 5 Posted June 28, 2012 I already told you, it's not that easy anymore. There are queues. You have to wait to pay for servers now depending on where you're coming from and wanting to do."Server owners need to start wising up. We are only processing about 20 to 30% of server requests for hosting due to the massive volume of offers. The clan servers need to realize they cannot just do whatever they feel like because their actions affect the rest of the game and the servers." - rocket Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
