n_nussbaum@hotmail.com 9 Posted July 1, 2012 Can we have an official ruling on this. The cheat reporting guidelines say not to post these as a cheat, but 4 days after those was made, rocket started a topic to address this issue. Stating.I don't know why' date=' but people are assuming that I think this is part of the game.It's not. I posted in a thread that was talking about that, that META-GAMING is explicitly allowed. I.e. infiltrating teamspeak servers and groups etc...Disconnecting to avoid death IS an exploit.It will be patched out, very easily, in a future update. The update is ready to go and will be released when the Beta patch for ArmA2 is out.[/quote']So with that said, do we report these individuals or just deal with them as server admins with local bans?If possible I would like to start a DayZ global ban list of people who disconnect during fire fights. This would include GUIDs listed to make sure the person didn't change names after the fact he was caught. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cori 7 Posted July 1, 2012 Going as far as Globally banning because of DC in firefights is overboard... Server admins can deal with them... If you don't like it, don't play it.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bemurad 0 Posted July 1, 2012 Local bans are in place, imo. Makes them think twice about losing stuff in their tents forever or just the stuff on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you don't like it' date=' don't play it....[/quote']I am the server admin :rolleyes: I have been locally banning these rejects as fit and recording them for public display. By your statement I can only assume you are a server hopper who DC's during gunfights.That is the issue, most of these people who DC to avoid fights are not regulars on a server and could care less about a local ban as there is numerous servers they can abuse if 1 or 2 ban them. With them being banned globally from DayZ that may make them think twice before Alt-F4in.But until then I will be posting videos of those who DC on me on youtube as I have started to. GUIDs will be provided in the youtube description. If an admin feels the need to add that GUID to their own ban list that is the admins choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cik 2 Posted July 5, 2012 Yet another example. The OP answered his own question. Combat logging on this server is an exploit.Combat logging on any server is an exploit.Combat logging (period) according to Rocket is an exploit.
