My survivor was turned into THE rocket

[glemmar 88]

Not sure if this goes into general or troubleshoot.

Anyway I was playing DayZ with my friend in NL 20 when suddenly my friend says that his weapon changed into AS50. Soon after my weapon was changed as well. Also I noticed that my whole gear was changed. And so was everything I had inside my backpack. I'll post pictures about what I NOW have after the change.

Anyway, I disconnected and when I got into another server I noticed that my skin was switched to some sort of british paratrooper and since the map also showed my character I was able to see that my guy was "rocket" instead of "survivor".

Is there anyway I could solve this problem, since I don't feel like killing my character just because some guy at NL 20 decided to fool around with other peoples gear. About my current and previous gear I don't care at all, since I can get new, but the stats on the other hand, especially how many days I have survived since I currently have a new personal record going on.

The reason why I am reporting this is because I don't want to get banned because to some I might seem like a hacker, but also because I was perfectly happy with my previous gear.

I'll try it now. Any idea why all this happened or was some admin just feeling very funny?

EDIT: Also this is first time I've actually seen any other clothing and thus I had no idea how it behaves.

Admins cannot change stuff like this. Seems like a hacker did this to you.

EDIT: also, that skins looks fucking BADASS. Hope we will have a chance to find something like this in future updates.

Well I just had taken a few shots at some guy in ghillie, ofcourse he disconnected the same time I shot him. But how did he managed to change mine and my friends gear since my friend didn't shoot him at all?

He must have duped a bunch of 12.77 ammo for you too. That bastard!

Okey I joined the server and all the stuff was as shown in pictures above, but my friends gear had reverted to his previous state. I put on the ghillie but didn't resieve a survivor clothing. I guess I am damned to roam the land with AS50, M4A1 CCO SD, NV goggles, ghillie and such...

FEELS BAD MAN! :/

I read a post about someone that got banned because the hacker gave him that skin, and when he died the admins found his body. He explained what happened and complained, but the admins ignored his request and posted the picture of his body, claiming he was the hacker.

I dont know what I would do if I were you, but be careful cause you could very easily be mistaken for a hacker.

Admins can't change stuff like this with normal admin tools you mean. Having admin access to a dedicated box could easily make a hacker more powerful by what they can and can not do.
