Cheating admins?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

do admins of a server know your activities? Each time I log in, my newly repaired car is gone! Third time and different places. This cant be possible! I now interpret this as the admin does not want me on the server and I should look for another server. Each time I could repair a car without player contact on a low 60 slot server and it costs me serveral hours to repair a car! But when I log in after a while (yes, I have to sleep and work too), then my hidden car is gone. Absolutely ridiculous!

the admins know mostly what you are doing and know exactly where you are

they cannot cause a car to despawn

Cars despawn for a variety of reasons - being badly damaged (heavy scratches on car) or on server reset the car decides to go flying and destroys itself. Or you parked a car somewhere that the game decided was no good

players can cause a car to despawn if they shoot it

As an ex admin, its too much effort to chase around after players and make their play crap and I mean why even be such an ahole. Its just so much quicker just to ban them. If they (the admin) want you gone they will tell you or just ban you.

Generally I tried to contact players who were breaking rules to say hey. . .  I will ban you . But more often than not the player wasnt interested in a discussion and would not engage

And I never used the community tools etc . .. .  to get an advantage or what ever

If admins know what you are doing and where you are, they could log in with a character and go to your locations. Maybe I unconsciously annoyed the admin because I found his base, which seemed to be abandoned, and took things with me. And now he wants to annoy me with the cars. I'm gonna give it one more try, otherwise I'm gonna give up.  With a car I actually want to explore the whole landscape at last.

sure with COT and the others you can teleport to a location, but why would you.

There is so much other stuff that you have to do as an admin, you just dont have time to chase after individual players. I can think of one player who I thought was duping (he wasnt), it took me a week to find the time to investigate him in depth.

Even the vaguest suggestion to players that the admin is being an ahole can kill a server, and I assure you players discuss the admins

 

what were the rules on the server, no base raiding or?

what constitutes  an abandoned base to you (if raiding allowed)?

The admin will try  (ok, its what I generally did) and tell you not to raid a certain location  . . . . . if not directly then by messages in the game. Pissing players off does not work.

if the admin wants you gone, you will be

dont give up, its a great game, there are loads of servers out there, plenty to choose from if the admin is being an ahole

but from my experience with cars they can and do despawn at will on server reset. Ive lost more than a few cars to the game . . . .. .

Where can I find the rules. It s an official server. When I click on the server in the official server list, I just see the settings of the server.

an official server, then there are no admins. No public hive server has an admin, only community servers

whats the name of the server?
