Rehclip 0 Posted June 10, 2012 I Quote:- Their are only two reasons why you, as a server owner, should ban a player on your server. Those two reasons are: Malicious talk, and racism. You may not ban a user for stealing your loot, killing you, spying on you, etc.- You may only kick for disruptive behavior (such as continued VOIP over side channel). But you may not kick due to race or language or because the person does something you do not like.Bad_Habit may be super annoying... but thats what the mute button is for, and what kicking is for.

Thule (DayZ) 0 Posted June 12, 2012 These guys seem to ban at the slightest provocation. I got banned today for dc'ing from a zombie and player combo fight last night, on a different server...someone I ran into recognized my screen name. Granted, I probably shouldn't have done it...but the fact of the matter remains that these admins wield their hammers of banness way to lightly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regardless if you DC'd or not, they had no proof of what you did (or didn't do for all they know) on another server. THAT is wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You said in side chat "Earlier I Disconnected because I was being chased by zombies and getting shot at". Thats an exploit so we banned you for it. We had no idea that it was a different day on a different server but you admitted to DCing from a fight "earlier" and you were on our server for quite some time. Also you seem to be forgetting to mention how you threatened to DDOS the server.... We don't ban people for anything or because we want to we ban people for breaking the rules Rocket set up. We don't have to give you a warning you should already know DC'ing from fights is an exploit so you got banned for it. As for Bad_habit I don't know what his Ingame name is but he was probably the guy banned for calling someone a N****r. As a side note also I'm not an admin but I am in PK or pixelkillers the clan that host the server and was there when you got banned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knotai 1 Posted June 12, 2012 I banned Bad_Habit for playing sounds over his mic. It's annoying to have to listen to that and breaks immersion. I guess I was a little hasty. I have since unbanned him. As far as Thule goes, he admitted to dc'ing from a firefight + zeds. This is an exploit. That is straight out of Rocket's mouth. It has no place in the game. I think the ban was justified. I do not want exploiters on my server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legacy (DayZ) 1091 Posted June 12, 2012 While questionable the ban can be for avoiding a 'firefight' He may or may not of engaged the guy shooting at him, but I think mainly it was the zombies that he wanted to DC From. But I aint got no control over this, just my own words :V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
knotai 1 Posted June 12, 2012 He admitted to getting shot at on the server. He even named the gun his attacker was using when he DC'd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thule (DayZ) 0 Posted June 12, 2012 Woah woah woah, take everything out of context. First of, my game name is Thule, my roommate is Jesse. He threatened to DDoS, not me. He gets very unhappy when we get banned for no reason. That being said, did you get DDoS'd I sincerely doubt it. He makes idle threats. Second, I had just logged onto your server, the player who brought up that I DC'd said, and I quote "Were you up in NW airfield last night?". There was no mention of a servername, you assumed that I was on yours and wrongfully banned me for it. Third, yes DC'ing is an exploit, and the core of exploits are that they are in fact - not cheating. Exploits fall to the developers to patch, which in fact Rocket said he was working on( http://dayzmod.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=8029 ). And regarding your last point to my ban. I understand it is an exploit, and agree I probably shouldn't have done it, on a side note though, Rocket has set up explicit rules for bannable offenses, and a single DC from a DIFFERENT SERVER is not on that list. A warning would have been nice, a kick even, but a permanent ban is not acceptable, especially since it didn't occur while you were on to confirm it. Although you have no reason to believe me, I can honestly say that I could have made it away from the fight. Cameron hit me once, I was not bleeding, no broken bones, and it was night so I am certain I could have spent the time to run away, find a barn, and kill the zombies without Cameron giving chase. I just think your use of the ban is a harsh tactic considering the situation...And @ Lectic, I didn't admit to "to dc'ing from fights". I admitted to disconnecting from ONE fight 24 hours before, and on a different server. I understand your server admin's desire to dissuade constant use of exploits, but has he heard of fact-checking? Next time talk to the guy, find out if it was actually your server, and look at the surrounding situation rather than just immediately permanently banning.This is what I don't want to see in server admins: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
