WhatIsLove 15 Posted August 25, 2012 So my server and my clan got nuked and then a sniper came near our base after to finish off killing some people. I had the person who launched a nuke banned, but the sniper couldn't be banned because supposedly, I "did not" have enough proof.The sniper shot an AS50 at me and my clan, however, his inventory showed a Double Barrel Shotgun which is not strong enough to kill someone from about 200+ meters away. From start to finish, his inventory had a Shotgun and not an AS50 the whole time. How is this not enough proof? My server has been getting attacked by numerous hackers daily now because it got posted in public. I'm sick of this and I just think that if the player has anything suspicious, they should be banned automatically. As of now, there are suspicious players on my server that I can't ban just because the host says "not enough proof". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521 Posted August 25, 2012 It's becoming a frequent problem here, as soon as one player mentions "Hacker on DE 9239280983" or "Thunderdomed on US 93827498273498" then you can almost kiss your server goodbye.. yes the popularity will increase but so will the hack attacks.I do not post mine at all, yes it's quite, average about 15 players at a time but we have been hacked twice in a month, one was invunerable and was banned instantly, the other tried a shitty thunderdome and left when i gave him a load of abuse (not mature i know but he took my hard earned guns away from me, i was pissed off!)I hear what you say though, lacking the proof to kick someone that you genuinly think is hacking away. It's a damn nightmare and ruins the game but sadly there is little we or admins can do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A few days ago, I also had a player who logged into my clans' base and I had a member find him. When he found the person in the base, he took shots at him but the person wasn't dying. Soon, the person in our base shot my member once and died. Soon, we finally took down the intruder, but he had no gear in his inventory.Even that was not enough proof to ban him.

Battleeye is struggling bad, as soon as it cures one problem the scripters get another way round it, continuous battle of good v evil.My server is down just now cos my host is useless so it's given me time to read up on how to track scripters through the in game log system and so far i've learned quite a bit.Sounds like a weird scripter you had in your camp, almost like he was playing about with his scripts and seeing what he could do, a friend of mine showed me what the scripts can actually do, some i was genuinely impressed with and thought i could do with them to help policing my server, but at the same time he showed me some damn evil ones, i just thought "why do this to other players?" like firing a nuke from your crotch!! WTF haha! For the time being it's a case of just trying to stay a step ahead of the scripters. as soon as i see 2 or 3 kills appear on the screen i investigate just in case... couple times i've prevented mass server wipes.. other times i just get to laugh that some lads have just smashed a car or chopper and killed themselves!

They just make a set of rules and tell the admins to find it or get out of their faces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derpy_Hooves (DayZ) 4521 Posted August 25, 2012 True, thats why i share my server with 3 others. means there is always someone in game watching over any possible problems. Any of them can ban hackers and kick dupers etc, i mean i can't do it on my own, not with having a job and that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
