Maca (DayZ) 769 Posted May 27, 2012 In the last week I've seen a few servers with passwords on them? There never full about 8 players on them out of 40 slots??? Same players then join other servers..... Just wondering could they be farming loot????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Africanized Bees 5 Posted May 27, 2012 Maybe they are staggering people joining to ease the hive issues? I have no issues if that is what they are doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cimex 0 Posted May 27, 2012 I'm pretty sure that's against the rules, since it allows server admins and their friends to farm loot without any danger. Report it to the relevant part of the team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dale0404 16 Posted May 27, 2012 Err, no that wont be against the rules. Whoever is the server owner can do what he damn well pleases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They can do what they damn well please, unless they want to have access to DayZ's master server; then they damn well better follow rocket's rules.It's not like they're dickish and arbitrary. They're actually pretty nice, and mainly concern themselves with stopping server admins from being assholes and farming mad loots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deneme 8 Posted May 28, 2012 I have been seeing an increase of this as well with some servers. I usually see it done around late night central USA time for about 4-6 hours with the same group of people in the servers before it opens up to the public. After seeing this almost every other day with some of the same servers, it sure does smell fishy.And no one likes that fishy smell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
