vjludovico 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Why are there locked servers today, did the rules change? There are players in them... 1 is locked with 2/2 slots. The other is locked with 3/40.* Server this happened on: DE (No number) [sKS]Sonder-Kommando-Sturnand Awnz (says it's running DayZ SP, could be legit, just never seen it)* Time that it happened including your timezone. 445p GMT -5* What happened during the incident. Unable to Join, server locked.EDIT: Correction of 3/50 to the proper number 3/40 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ander (DayZ) 530 Posted May 24, 2012 Can you get me those servers IP-addresses?Ill deal with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oskis_999@hotmail.com 1 Posted May 24, 2012 Great that you admins do deal this. Its great to see that the rules that you have set is lived after aswell. I really dont like to see the servers with 2/40 in there and then they are locked when I try to join. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vjludovico 0 Posted May 24, 2012 Can you get me those servers IP-addresses?Ill deal with them.I see no way to get the IP, it's not listed in the server info. I have the players names on each server though, with pictures. I can PM them if needed.Also both servers are gone at the moment.EU6 is currently locked with only the admin in there, but I suspect some sort of server maintenance or testing... I hope.

dazbobaby 6 Posted May 25, 2012 If its a DE server (DAO hosted) I can clarify that there are problems with them, possibly hardware related. The owner is currently trying to diagnose the problem. So it might be locked whilst diagnosis takes place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cm. (DayZ) 28 Posted May 25, 2012 Can we please not have a new thread everytime a server is locked? There are a lot of reasons to lock a server, everyone jumps to conclusions far too early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
c.chris.perry@gmail.com 17 Posted May 25, 2012 I have an auto locker in place on my server for when I restart it, so that it locks after the first 10 people join the lobby, which allows it to load the mission much faster and not get bombarded with requests. I feel like some people are just scrolling the server list, hitting refresh, and reporting whenever they see a lock symbol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vjludovico 0 Posted May 25, 2012 Yeah well, RU19 has been passworded for the last 30 minutes 5 people in it, and that DE server is back up, LOCKED with the same 3 people in it. Explain it away if there is a reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
christopher.hill449@gmail.com 314 Posted May 25, 2012 Get over it and go to a new server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vjludovico 0 Posted May 25, 2012 Get over it and go to a new server.No.It's not that I care if the servers are locked, what I care about is the fact that they can then bring these easily looted weapons on the servers where people are legitimately trying to play and test the game.If someone says hey, there are too many of X number of guns floating around the population (because people are bringing them from LOCKED servers), then the spawn rate of those guns gets changed, that taints the testing. That is why we are here.EDIT to add Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
