chris p. bacon 182 Posted August 16, 2012 It's like they expect a sniper to think twice when they see your name. I don't know why it pisses me off so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entaro (DayZ) 33 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Your base arma 2 profile is your computer name.So... their computer name is probably Admin. Edited August 16, 2012 by Entaro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16186 Posted August 16, 2012 hello thereIt's not, in most cases, by their choice. By default A2 uses their PC's account name, which on many PC's is "admin".Usually, it's because the player is new and hasn't made a proper profile yet.RgdsLoK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
serioussam909 15 Posted August 16, 2012 And who cares?Unless admin is a dick - you should get no penalties when you kill them.And I have survived through multiple encounters with various server admin's clan/teams - haven't been banned/kicked yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Diealot 46 Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) That sort of pisses me off too, just a bit. And I for one can not explain the reasoning behind that. I could be hugely mistaken assuming this, but I dont think a single real server admin would name themselves just plain 'admin' or 'Administrator'. Anyhoo.. Now I'm not a big KoS/PvP/bandit kinda guy, but for some reason I think that if such a person -or if I ever turn to the dark side- would see a nametag that says 'admin', they would indeed take his ass down ASAP, due to the stupid naming-bluff attempt. But again, this is pure speculation and what the fuck do I know. Someone with factual data on this matter, please enlighten us. :D:edit: Yes, indeed Entaro and orlok are correct. (I R stupid, and didnt think of that. Been using custom PC/Profile name since day 1.) Of course there may be people attempting something in the line of what OP and I were thinking.Peace.SD.

Zombie Jesus 723 Posted August 16, 2012 Yea my name is Megatron for that very reason, I named my computer after a transformer (I am old so I grew up with the toys/cartoons not after the movie) and I just never bothered to change the name. Although Zombie Jesus has a great ring to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although Zombie Jesus has a great ring to it.Yeh, I'm kinda old too, I guess :) I remember playing with some TF-figurines at a friends house, but never owned any. I had tons of He-Man-figurines though, and some TMNT. Ahh, *nostalgia-sigh*Also, Zombie Jesus reminds me of me on a Saturday morning (or quite frankly any morning atm) =long dark hair, beard and looking like shit. (not to mention the moaning) :D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
