US1917 ADMIN KICKING after killing them. ADMIN:Brettwig33

[Harlreddit 5]

US1917 has an admin abusing their powers.

I was running around Solnichniy looking for vehicle parts. As I was scavenging the town for parts I run into a V3S vehicle (at its spawn point). I see a player (Main User) running for the vehicle being chased by Zeds. I decide to take a shot at him because I wanted this rare vehicle for myself and my friends. After killing a Main User, who was trying to repair a V3S Civilian, they immediately kick all players off to prevent me from taking the vehicle. I try to rejoin the server 2-3 times and get kicked every single time I join. After attempting to rejoin so many times, the server get locked (turned into a private server). This is considered cheating. Please do not join this server or support the admins. You do not want this to happen to you.

Hello HarlReddit,

Sorry you had a bad experience on our server. Let me explain what has happened in the last two hours. The server is brand new... 4-5 hours I believe. I haven't been on for most of the day and I was notified by a few players that there was a hacker in the server. I sent multiple global messages saying that I was going to shutdown the server because I need to go through the logs to figure out what's up. Let me explain that I have never run a DayZ server before and I did not know what would and would not show up in the logs so it took me a bit of googling.

During this process I locked the server and shortly after realized this was not allowed. My reaction was to kick everyone in the server and send global messages letting them know I was going through the logs and the server would be playable again in a few. I now realize that I should have stopped the server and then read the logs but I wanted to give players a fair amount of warning. The issue with this is that everyone kept rejoining. This led to a bad practice of 'pausing' the server and I've learned from it and it will not happen again.

Just to clear up a few things the only admin is myself 'Brett'. The other two players left at multiple times but kept rejoining just like you. The next time I have a situation like this I will give a 5 minute warning and then stop the server instead of doing what I did today. I do however have a slight issue with you flooding the server with connection requests with your name changed and taunting us with a server report. The server is brand new and to see a player like yourself go off on me when this is just an issue of not much server experience was concerning.

We welcome everyone on the server and we are sorry for this issue.

Thanks - Brett

So it was coincidence that I got kicked off the server after killing Jason who was going for a V3S? Who was still in the server after I was trying to rejoin multiple times? The server # stayed to 3/max the whole time I was trying to rejoin. I was playing on the server for about 4 hours straight. In that time there was no talk or evidence of a hacker.

[1917Admin 9]

We have a teamspeak server that is in the MOTD which is displayed upon server join. I received multiple reports of hacking through there. I sent multiple global messages about there being a suspected hacker which granted may have not reached you or many others because people were being kicked throughout this time period. I believe you killed someone named Main User not Jason because you are Jason if I'm not mistaken...

4:44:24 BattlEye Server: Player #3 Jason (98.***.*.***:2304) connected

4:48:57 BattlEye Server: Player #3 PostedREDDIT+DAYZforums (98.***.*.***:2304) connected

4:50:06 BattlEye Server: Player #3 FOR ADMIN ABUSE (98.***.*.***:2304) connected

4:54:59 BattlEye Server: Player #3 Lies,TookPicsOFeverythin (98.***.*.***:2304) connected

4:55:38 BattlEye Server: Player #3 LiesTookPicsOfEverything (98.***.*.***:2304) connected

There may have been 3 people in the server intermittently but it fluxuated off and on from people joining and leaving. The server has been running fine today. Feel free to stop on in and check it out!

[Harlreddit 5]

My name is Jason in game, I changed my name multiple times as it was my only way to communicate with the rude admin who kept kicking me. The player i killed was Main User as it says in the original post.

I joined again today, but this time.. i get banned.

[Silenus01 3]

They banned and kicked me as well, see my post. They played with me for over and hour, close to 4+ hours total. Then when I blew up their vehicle justified it as an ok kick since someone had given me an illegitimate weapon (I didn't know it couldn't be used). They were ok with me having it before their car was destroyed.

Main User is another admin on the server who plays with Brett, they both horde vehicles and kick/ban when things don't go their way. You were kicked unjustly, I can assure you of that.

See the voted off the island part, that's them letting you know you stepped on their toes.

Today a GREAT day =D, I'm north of Stary and I see a heli flying above my friend and I. A couple minutes later the pilot dies randomly and the passenger ejects and parachutes down. We quickly run for the heli crash. I spot the player who ejects across the field as my friend goes for the crash. To my surprise its the admin "Brett". I suddenly jump to joy as I know this is the admin of the server and I've been hunting him all day. I line my shot and BOOM one shot with my FN FAL. He is dead.

I killed the admin "Brett" today on my other Character Profile (as this CD key was not banned). After killing him I let him know about it on TS, again he goes with the ban. Not only does he use his admin powers to ban me, he gets my IP and decides to post it on the TS server we are on.

He also kept kicking my friend who was trying to loot his body, after banning me pertinently.

It felt DAMN GOOD to kill him though :)))))))) REAL GOOD!

He QQ'd on TS, something about "pulling money out of my pocket to pay for my own server" and what not. LOLOLOLOL. Noty, Ill play for free and kill noobs like you Brett :) (Not going to take it to your level and kick people if things don't go my way)

You just admitted to using another account to bypass a ban. Your entire group has been banned and all IPs have been banned also. You have no expectation of privacy and if you make your week's mission to talk nonsense about my server expect a reply.

Nice kill though. I didn't see anybody parachute but I think the trade was pretty even. The helicopter which Zach(also banned for hacked items) originally had was given to you guys. So basically I shot down a heli and killed 1 guy and then you killed me. I banned your little group who were really the only people in the server at the time. i was regeared out in 20 minutes since your friend 'Tyler' had NVGs on him and that was the only thing you guys were able to take off my body before I dropped the banhammerz!! FYI your friend didn't 'die randomly' he took an as50 round to the chest.

Regarding your ip... if you are going to make it a habit of using other accounts to bypass bans then I will make it a habit of letting other servers know to ban your ip and both guids which are.....

Excuse me, I feel it is important to help educate you about some important facts, 1917Admin. First and most important, you may not ban the player for having a second account. If the player has purchased a second CD key for Arma2 he is perfectly free to play the game on either account. You have no right to ban him for using another account to bypass a ban you shouldn't have placed on him.

Now for the second and perhaps most important thing. You claim to have banned the player for having 'hacked weapons'. Please read this post:

http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/46844-hackers/#entry446536

Rocket, the developer of DayZ mod specifically states a player will not be banned for having a weapon from a hacker. The player you banned was using weapons taken from a hacker/script spawner. The player, himself, didn't script spawn the weapons nor did he hack as you have not provided any evidence of such.

All evidence points to you being an abusive and rather paranoid I might add, Admin. To clear your name, you should reverse the bans. Otherwise, the players...should they post in the appropriate forum using the appropriate format...have a very solid case against you and your server.

[1917Admin 9]

Ped, Rocket was talking about a GLOBAL BAN not a LOCAL BAN. They can and will be banned from my server if they are using hacked weapons.

Once again I and I alone can make the decision to ban whoever whenever but I do follow the guidelines. This user was banned and he used a new account to circumvent that ban. That in my eyes is a bannable offense and he was banned for it. It is not your call to tell me what I can and can't ban for. Have a good one.

Looks like I followed the rules all along. :)

Harlreddit, 1917Admin has broken many rules. And I appreciate you want to get him into trouble for such.

Unfortunately, you are posting to the wrong forum.

Please read this -> http://dayzmod.com/f...ing-guidelines/

And please post to the Server Reporting Forum using this format.

Doing so will ensure 1917Admin and his server will see appropriate actions taken.

---

Also, please do contact the host of 1917Admin's server to report his actions to them.

Perhaps the server host will take immediate action.

WHat the fuck is wrong with this 10 year old? I've read 3 threads now where people say they have been banned by this down syndrome kid and the server hasn't even lasted 24 hours yet....

Just because you seem to have dyslexia and cannot read I will re-post the admin/hoster rules

And LOL

Looks like I followed the rules all along. :)

Dumb shit... you cannot place global bans as.... common sense! you do not have the power to do that. These rules apply to your server and you have ZERO right to ban anyone unless you have 100% proof (fraps, logs, pictures) of them HACKING or spamming racist comments.

Fuck how I wish rocket enforced blacklisting of servers

This is all fucking retarded, It is one server, the guy may have made a mistake, but other than that I know he is a good guy, but with the rate of you guys just shelling him with hate, are you really going to go into that server and not do illegitimate things? you make him sound like a bad person but doing all of this is making it worse, you sound like incredibly immature children trying to get the kid who stole your toy punished, even though he said sorry and thought he was right to take it. This is all silly but you can stop with this hate parade, you make yourselves look worse for fussing over a single server

Fuckin' A! If I was the jury in this proceeding, I gotta say 1917Admin. The odds don't look in your favor at all. You're actually lucky these guys don't report this in the proper section.

NO ONE likes to be wronged, I'm 100% sure these people aren't saying these things for the hell of it. Admin abuse should be looked at the same way you would look at a hacker. I don't mean someone unknowingly using hacked weapons, I mean a real 'kill everyone on the server' type of hacker.

[1917Admin 9]

It should honestly be I pay for a server and I have full discretion.
