Server Ban for AS50 TWS: Debate

[andreasb 45]

Did you just say that CoD/BF3 do not have rules against hacking????

Everyday you just make yourself look worse and worse.

Nope, that was not what I said and you know it. YOu are just acting like a retard cause I make you mad :D

We are talking servers connected to a central hive. BF3 doesnt have anything like that.

What's the difference between hacking in an AS50 TWS or using tents to dupe them (which everyone does)? Both are illegitimate and give you an infinite supply of AS50 TWS'es. I say yes, ban them, because they are knowingly exploiting hacked loot for their own purposes. In any other game, if you exploit any sort of bug, you'd be banned.

Firstly: There is no difference. Either way you are creating that weapon.

And no, you cant ban them. As far as I know you are not allowed to ban for duping per today.

This is not "any other game" This is a mod that comes with rules laid down by DayZ staff. Dont like it? Then FUCK OFF:

Sigh, they do have rules, same as here.

No hacking

No cheating

No exploiting

You don't follow the rules there, so you can't come here and tell everyone that "You have to follow the rules because the Dev's say so"

Again, you're the one getting mad, as evident by your name calling, telling people to "Fuck off" You can't seem to try and argue your point without doing it, It shows your maturity level, or lack thereof.

Mad? no... It just fronts you as a fucking admin abuser. :)

Clearly shows you shouldnt have any admin rights on a server whatsoever.

Edit: LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!! ROFLS!

Why on EARTH would i be _ MAD_ because of fucktard admin abusers like you? If anything I feel sorry for you.. And your players..

I DO NOT admin abuse on my server. Players will NOT be banned for using these weapons, but I will recommend them not to.

I have admin right because I pay for them. The players that frequent our ts are happy we keep players with illegal weapons off our server and if we as admins keep the players happy by removing unwanted vagabonds with illegal weapons then we will keep on doing it.

You shouldnt be allowed to leave a padded room but im not complaining.

Hacked in weapons is definitely the biggest issue and problem with DayZ atm. Let's just auto ban everyone with those guns. Specially someone on their first day who's inventory gets changed by a hacker and has no idea their gun isn't on the loot table.

That's why you let them know it is not legit, and ask them to drop it.

That doesn't happen. People just get banned illegitimately.

Im not saying that people cant hack, cheat or exploit. I'm, saying ADMINS should follow DAYZ RULES.

Learn the difference.

Oh, ok I see. The SA's have to follow the rules, but the players don't, got it.

Do you even think about what your saying before you hit "Post"????

Not on our server.

[terex 322]

Not on our server.

I nominate you for the best and most honest legit admin and server and sons award.

[Loque 13]

Not on our server.

Yea same, we ask people not to play on our server with the weapons that are not part of the game - if they stay and chose to play with these weapons then we are considering adding them to our banlist. Everyone is well aware that someone could pick the weapon up by mistake, or have some kiddie plop it on them - which is exactly the reason why the dev team cannot tell server admins to explicitly ban players with these weapons, which is fair enough (otherwise some wise ass will just start giving out these weapons for the lulz) - however - the majority of the time I see multiple players connecting within 5 minutes of each other, all with a variety of hacked weapons, radio etc...

The other point is that you do not have to give people perma-bans, a simple, server specific, 1 week ban with a friendly explanation and a method for discussing with the admin is really not that upsetting, especially with all the other servers out there to play on:

"1 week ban in place for connecting for longer than 5~ minutes (after being warned) with a weapon that is not part of Day Z, please contact us on www.domain.com"

I agree that automating this, or allowing people to be added to the community ban list would be a bad idea and could harm legitimate players. I find it quite therapeutic going through our server log files at the moment and would like to do the best I can to ensure a nice place for everyone to play by blocking the blatant hackers from rejoining.

Then a single ban from a single random server (to him/her) with the reason "hacked AS50_TWS" will educate mr nooby noob and he will then know from this point forward and since its his first day, then no harm done right.... theres 4500 servers to choose from. Enough said.
