Oracle314 1 Posted August 11, 2012 Hey admins/server adminsI would like to ask a question or so and perhaps ask for help.My friend and I are wanting to host an event for charity wherein I hunt his squad down with my squad and vice versa. Essentially we'd like to have only us on a server so that there isn't interruption by hackers/other players.(As hypocritical as it sounds) We'd just rather not have other players.We're hoping to have two streams running, one of my squad and one of his.Now I don't have any posts but that is because I lurk a lot but I'd really like to see this hit it off.There is a reddit link for the rules/what's happening about it and I'm not sure if I can post it here, so I wontBasically I would like to lock a server or have a server locked. To make sure that no one keeps unlegit gear we're going to commit suicide at the end of it.If an admin can host a server for us that would be lovely/ Get permission to host our own server for this period of timeThanks guysOracle. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) Why not use one of the other Arma mods or servers that are already set up for this sort of thing?Also, where does the charity part come into it? Edited August 11, 2012 by Fraggle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oracle314 1 Posted August 11, 2012 Why not use one of the other Arma mods or servers that are already set up for this sort of thing?This is a good idea, yet I'd rather have it on DayZ. It's something that we're familiar with and play sort of commonly.We all enjoy the mod and It just seems to be simpler for us.If you have any mods in mind thought that could be suggested It'd be great!

OrLoK 16185 Posted August 11, 2012 Why not just do it?use common sense. Even if the worst happened and you were black listed im sure a reasonable explanation would sort things out.Fraps the entire thing from start to finish, so you can prove that you really are doing what you are saying you will do.Perhaps wait for some admins to reply here as I may have missed a vitally important nuance which may render my opinions invalid.Ie I may be talking poo.Good luck though.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oracle314 1 Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) We've been told to just go private hive which is an option but we don't have anyone to host as the person who usually hosts minecraft,terraria etc servers is currently sleeping or maybe be busy.We'd like to do it in about 6 hours or even 24 hours from now.It's all sort of in the balance.If you can host any communication with myself would be appreciated ^^ Edited August 11, 2012 by Oracle314 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 11, 2012 To be honest I think a private hive server is your only option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
