stephen321 48 Posted August 1, 2019 I know when private servers are released we will be able to password-protect them and the devs have said they plan to add the ability to whitelist in the future but would really like the devs to release whitelisting sooner rather than later because although we can ban people from the server by not giving them the password there is nothing stopping a friend giving them the new one so there is basically nothing we can do to really ban players.

Man Parts 241 686 Posted August 1, 2019 On top of that we will have to reset the password, rerelease it to everyone, and hope someone doesn't give it to the people banned. Easy solution is to not invite everyone and they momma. Keep it small at first and invite only the trusted if you're skeptical about people. Your server doesn't need to be populated with a lot of people to enjoy the game. All I'm saying is, for the people who are trying to populate a server for whatever reason but are hesitant to add Randy Randomson and his cousin Randy Randall. Start small and work your way up. Build your community. This way you won't have to worry about banning and whitelisting mofos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stephen321 48 Posted August 1, 2019 It means you might need to ban a whole group because of one person if they keep giving them the password. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trapphone 17 Posted August 1, 2019 I'm not gonna bother with private servers, I already know if Somone kills the admin he will find some justification to ban you, I'm probably gonna stay on official servers because your truely free to do what ever you want, the "real" way to play 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr squizzer 64 Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) I may get a server and let you all come a worship me. Im not expecting a great rush if I’m honest unless my mum plays which I don’t think she does but still I’ll give it a go.

Yeah, it all depends on the mindset of the folks having the server. And to be fair, if they act childish there are other servers to play on, so if they want people to shoot at on their servers they can't go all out asshat badmins or they'll just end up walking around alone with all their fancy gear. The biggest selling point of private servers is to get a lasting community built, where people get to know each other, factions settle in and build bases somewhere, and work hard to keep their territory safe from others. Faction wars, trading, raiding, partying. All those things that sadly happen very rarely on official servers because folks server hop when the sun goes down or it starts raining.

Yea that's exactly what we are hoping to achieve. It's a big task but we are hoping the players wanting to play the game right stick around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
