Lowbei 33 Posted July 23, 2012 gonna guess this is highly frowned upon for admins to lock their servers after restarts so their clan can loot all heli crashes and move all vehicles to their camps...if it IS highly frowned upon, and is obviously only used for such purposes, then why is it allowed?its one thing to lock your server for testing (what exactly you need to be testing im not sure, since theres not a lot of options for admins anyways), but its a bit ridiculous for some of the most stable servers (the ones people flock to) to be locked for the public while clans gather up all the goodies so that nobody else can have them, so that they can feel pro after they kill someone with an L85AW who was wielding a pistol.and no, im not raging, i havent died in the past few days (other than an unfortunate incident between me and a door -.- ), it just seems that if you want the community to do better, you should begin shutting down or placing warnings on servers whose admins are clearly douchebags. and yes, i get that there are a bajillion servers, and that you just dont have the time, but there are trustworthy longtime (relatively) dayz players who are willing to police the game for you.my recommendation, have a forum called "reporting douches" with two threads, one for reporting the names of hackers, and one for reporting servers whose admins are doing trashy stuff, like locking the server after restarts, or banning people for killing their clan members. and of course you cannot just trust anyone who posts, but when enough people mention the same names... yeah 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andris.orinskis@gmail.com 26 Posted July 25, 2012 (edited) At this very moment there are OVER 150 locked servers, and most of them are in the hive! And almost all of them have 1 to 4 players on it.Is it time for me to get my own server in hive? You know, to grind for couple of hours, and then me and my friends will come to free servers all packed with AS-50, nvg's, ghillie suits and stuff like that?I mean isn't it ridiculous??
