So what's the policy with public servers today?

Recommended Posts

Been playing dayz again for about a week. The last time I've been playing was a few months ago, while hackers were still overwhelming. Credits for reducing them to an acceptable minimum, however, a new plague is arising:

 

Retarded server owners.

 

Whenever I try to connect to kind of low-pop servers, you get kicked most of the time. Even on server I play regulary on, they randomly kick almost all the population to soft-restart it and keep it with their 2-3 people. Is this allowed now due to the introduction of private shards? Is it allowed now to rule public servers like that, some even with descriptions like: "join=kick" or "clanserver xyz, testing - don't join".

 

One thing in advance.. Please don't close this with the related topic of how to report servers. I know about that and did it in the past. Been reporting about 10 servers to hosts, however noone of them was ever closed. I have the feeling there are more server owners of that kind now than hackers a few months ago.

 

Other impressions welcomed.

It is not allowed and you should be reporting it, it's currently the only thing there is to do about it.

Well...

Reported servers usually get a warning first time (provided there is some sort of proof), only if they persist in their behaviour will it be closed.

And they do get closed.

Reporting servers lead to results, posting about it on the forums do not.

 

Locked.
