That1neguy 5 Posted August 25, 2012 Got banned for having a G36c Camo, are admins allowed to ban for possessing hacked guns? Cause if not I request to be unbanned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magotchi 74 Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) I'm the lead admin of US 303.People often quote http://dayzmod.com/f...rs/#entry446536 as proof that you can't ban for hacked weapons, but all that says is that you won't get a global ban for hacked weapons.My opinion is that having hacked weapons in the server ruins the experience for everyone, and users of hacked gear are just as bad a hackers because they have equipment that gives them an advantage over what the game normally offers. Also, hackers could simply spawn in all their hacked gear in an empty server, then bring it over en masse to a populated server they don't want to be banned from.If you promise to quit using hacked gear in the server, I'll unban you, but only once.Also, you'll always get a faster response if you visit our forums at http://clansm.net , as I only peruse through this section every couple days.

That1neguy 5 Posted August 29, 2012 That depends on how good you are at keeping hackers out of the server, If I can play there and not get killed by an obvious hacker I wont bring hacked guns onto your server. I'm just trying to find a largely populated server that I wont get teleported to/behind/in the air, thunderdomed, nuked, slayed, killed by an invisible asshole, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 29, 2012 The admin has acted correctly in my opinion. No admin can guarantee that you won't fall victim to hackers. You shouldn't use that as an excuse to use hacked weapons. You should also be grateful that your playing on a server with an active admin who wants to run a clean server.

Magotchi 74 Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks, Fraggle.That1neguy: I do my best to keep up with the current best practices in reducing hacking on the server, but much like most other servers, when it's full at 50/50, it's nearly impossible to stop entirely. Again, if you'd like to be unbanned, I will, as long as you agree to quit using invalid (hacked) gear in the server. I'll also need your in-game name you used at the time of the ban, or your GUID.

Shodan_ 0 Posted August 30, 2012 Hello! Today, I was banned ItemRadio. I come to your server over a month, I do not use hacks, hacking weapons and equipment that hinder gameplay. But I do not think that radio can ruin someone a game. I picked up the radio from dead man and wanted to go on the Green Mountain and check distress radio transmissions only. There have been no reports around this mountain, and I threw out the radio. Can we please remove the ban? /My ID 3666564/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magotchi 74 Posted August 30, 2012 Unbanned. FYI, though: Radios aren't in the game, and 80% of the time the server bans anyone for them, they're also carrying other illegal gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terex 322 Posted August 30, 2012 Unbanned. FYI, though: Radios aren't in the game, and 80% of the time the server bans anyone for them, they're also carrying other illegal gear.A radio is harmless.. Hackers can change peoples load outs also, I've had my gun change on me multiple times from a hacker. Newer players will be clueless on the legit / hacked in guns. Banning people the instant you see they have a hacked in gun seems very reasonable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

terex 322 Posted August 30, 2012 A hacker can't force anyone to join a server with hacked equipment.They sure can't! But they can put items in your inventory you can't even see then no doubt some up tight admins ban for them, horn etc.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magotchi 74 Posted August 30, 2012 (edited) I accordingly didn't waste any time unbanning, and if it becomes a problem, I'll add ItemRadio, TruckHorn, TruckHorn2, CarHorn, and BikeHorn to my whitelist, but so far, a large majority of people with these items already have other hacked gear in their inventory.

Magotchi 74 Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) Hackers: Maybe. It's hard to catch all but the dumbest of hackers these days, due to BattlEye bypasses and hacks that don't rely on scripts.On the gun: No: http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/M4A1_CCO_SD Edited September 9, 2012 by Mister_Magotchi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
