WHITELISTING CO-OP

[Weyland Yutani (DayZ) 1159]

Anybody private shard renters interested in becoming part of a whitelisting cooperative? I've whitelisted over 100 applicants and rejected quite a few. Actually, I've rejected some that were interested in private shards that advertise on this very forum. This sharing of information could be useful for all private shards here.

 

Personally, I do extensive checks and keep files on all rejections. We could not only share rejections, but also learn techniques from each other to keep your private shard servers hacker-free.

 

I have a website as well as a forum and looking to host this project.

 

Thanks for your time.

Absolutely!

Tried to PM you but apparently you can't receive them?

 

Anyhoo, I'm an IT-specialist by trade, so I can most likely help if you are in need of technical expertise, at least with regards to technical requirements, info-sec, and availability aspects etc. Not sure if I have time to actually code anything though; my custom whitelisting system and community forum adjustments (over at linuslan.net) were complex enough to keep me busy coding for a couple of weeks, and I do have a day job as well :) What are your plans, and how far have you gotten?

Regards,
Linus

PM sent inquiring on a good time (time zone, availability, etc) to chat.

The issue I see with this is, if a server admin in the co-op rejects a certain user due to personal dislike and/or admin abuse and it gets added to the tracker of rejections this could lead to the player having difficulty finding any server to play on even though they have never hacked, cheated, or broken the rules.

Not everybody is about admin abuse. Admin abuse destroys communities, kinda sick of people crying about admin abuse. Lets stay objective instead of trying to ruin a system that works. Kinda sick to shit of cry babies.

 

Admin abuse, KOS...bla h blah blah...GTF out of here with stymieing a non-hacker environment already.

Hey guys we just started our "Community Whitelist" project that is similar to this suggestion.

 

Players will use the "Login through Steam" to enter the Whitelist.

• easy access to many server community´s for the players
• easy way to maintain a Whitelist for server owners
• more players for your Server
• automated whitelisting

 

We are currently developing a Whitelist that will update by itselfe. It will support multiple servers.

Server owners can apply for using this automated whitelist - there will be only one whitelist for now.

When a Server does not want to accept a whitelisted user he can easily ban him to restrict access.

 

When someone is interested in joining please contact me trough our Forum over here: http://www.dayzgameserver.com/

The Community Whitelist can be found over here: http://www.unitedsquadscommunity.com/

 

Merry Christmas and a happy new year survivors!

Anything come of this? 

 

Sharing Whitelists, Ban lists and even just having established communication between communities would be a beautiful thing.

Very interested in seeing the dream come true and/or being apart of it.

I'm actually against sharing ban-lists and whitelists for reasons I'd rather not get into as it'll be an essay of typing. I am willing to start with communicating between communities. I made this post when I initially started whitelisting (when this thread was posted I was at 100, we've done about 1000 since) and there are major issues with my proposal which I haven't had time time to properly figure out so the idea can work.

Gotta start somewhere, so communication works. Also you're right, solid documentation is key. You want everyone onboard and confident when it comes to enforcing the bans. Also helps when dealing with appeals.
