insaneroy 3 Posted November 7, 2015 Some servers have PVE or no KOS rules and are everyone is asked to report violators. There are no player tags or kill text. How do you tell one player from another? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bororm 1156 Posted November 7, 2015 You don't, it's balogney and not supported by BIS. If those are public servers I think you can report them, assuming they're kicking/banning for playing the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stinkenheim 249 Posted November 7, 2015 If it's private it perfectly fine for server owners to have these rules. Sometimes you'll have the ingame name appear in the bottom if you have been force fed or tied up for example. Otherwise reporting the incident to the admins along with your ingame name and time of death will allow them to check the server logs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KandyCid 30 Posted November 9, 2015 kill logs, go on the servers teamspeak and tell your name to an admin and what time and with what weapon u where kiled by> probably gameservers.com is the best place to find a contact for the server. if they have these rules posted im sure they have a TS channel.

The servers aren't your own, they are just hired. The rules can be found here: https://dayz.com/files/pdf/Server_Hosting_Rules_Private.pdf They do not clearly state what you may kick or ban a player for but if you read the forums its basically just cheating or glitching, not Kos:ing, hoarding, douching or squeaking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll be honest I haven't read through the document but that was my understanding of it from experiences with servers like the gents of novo and dayz rp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Killawife 599 Posted November 10, 2015 From what the forum mods and developers say on these forums that is not the case. Rules DO apply, even on private shards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair enough, makes private servers seem almost completely pointless if they can't enforce rules or promote different playstyles then. If what you say is true then they are effectively the same as public just without as much server hopping/ghosting (some privates share hives so it's still possible on a few).

Killawife 599 Posted November 11, 2015 Yes, Server hoppers and ghosters are a pretty good reason for getting one though. You can also watch the BEC logs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
