Admin Abuse/Cheating FR 42

[BicE 0]

So, I was just recently playing on FR 42 (Hosted by SoA (Sons of Anarchy)).

Me and my 2 friends were sitting at Klen, the mountain spawning vehichles northwest of Berezino, we run there to look for vehichles, find 2 ATVs and a Truck, we see a guy in a ghillie running around, we approach him and he runs away and DCs.

We get scared and take positions around the area and we see a guy running into the vehichles again, together with 2 other friends (where did they come from?) all 3 in ghillies. I shoot a guy with my AS50 he drops to the floor and I go from 17 murders to 18. Clearly a hit and a dead player.

The rest of the players hide behind vehichles around the area, my friend gets shot by a silenced weapon and starts bleeding. After a while we all get session lost.

This seems suspicious to us so we log into a new server, now the important part. The MURDER I clearly got, was rollbacked, back to 17 murders. The ammo I used got rollbacked. My position got slightly rollbacked and my friend that got shot didn't bleed anymore, nor was he wounded at all (no lost blood) after taking 1-2 shots.

The guy I killed had the tag [soA] infront of his name.

_THE SAME NAME AS THE SERVER HOST_

If this isn't evidence for abusing / cheating then I dont know what is.

tl;dr Joins a server, kills player with squad tag same as the server host, server crashes and kills got rollbacked.

That actually isn't any evidence at all...

What evidence? Your story?

[ABORT 5]

Peeps, you gotta start recording things you do. Especially when you know you're in a situation that could turn out like this such as approaching a site with a lot of vehicles or raiding a camp!

How would I think that approaching a camp with vehichles would result in a player killed would crash the server to make it rollback? thats just silly, if a reasonable story isnt enough evidence what is to stop people from cheating all over the place, there must be some sort of records or logs with stuff going on on servers and there should be people checking it out. People dont just run around with fraps ready to record every single minute they play in this game, seriously.

[Legacy (DayZ) 1091]

It's more of you claim it is evidence when it could be a well typed up story. Not to say the developers won't look into it if it's becomes a big enough problem, but still.

I never claimed it was evidence, I said that if this can't be considered evidence don't know what could, apart from videocapturing it which is completely unreasonable for reasons I've already mentioned.

We have just played in there server (my 150 member clan) found a camp with 10 vechiles looted them took them far enough that they wouldn't find them then they turned on players and vechiles on the map and ghosted us.

We are currently building up our portfolio for this report SoA need to be taken down.

How is it unreasonable to record activity when you find something suspicious?

Have you seen how many posts of hackers there are on the forums?

You find a camp with several vehicles in such an open place as Klem, do you automatically assume that there's nobody around there or that the people around there are playing fair?

If you've had any amount of time playing this game you'd know that combat logging and hacking is rampant. Why would you not turn on fraps when approaching a number of vehicles parked in the open?

[miragexl 33]

I have evidence of the server admins abusing powers.

They tried attacking our camp when they all died they done a server restart.

They also turned players and vehicle locations on the map during this fight.

Im not one to file a complaint without tons of evidence.

As a huge 150+ members playing at one time we have so many people frapsing able to catch admins like this.
