Devmagic 36 Posted September 13, 2012 So one of my frequented servers recently placed a 24hr ban on me for possessing a TWS. Not gonna justify it, just simply put, I FOUND IT IN ONE OF THEIR TENTS!!Just wanted to remind everyone that even in 2012 there are still some major fucking hypocrites roaming around.If anyone wants to know what server i'd be happy to reveal but if rocket has any heart in his standalone he needs to not let 12 year old skiddies buy servers regardless of the income so that they get upset when you raid their precious camps that took them all of about 5 mins to copy and paste into the game.#retarded Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dankine 377 Posted September 13, 2012 so bitch about it rather than reporting the server and admins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmashT 10907 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) How do you know it was the admins camp? How do you know the admins are hacking/duping? How do you know they put the item in that tent even if the tent did belong to them? All we really know is you got a 24 hour ban for using an illegitimate gun, maybe you will think twice about picking another one up on their server?

phnordarossa 15 Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) So, you're admitting you made a mistake, but the mistakes made by the other guys were bigger and therefore you shouldn't have been banned for 24 hrs? I see you're sensitive, but as of right now you're the hypocrite. Edited September 13, 2012 by phnordarossa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lucid_wolf@hotmail.com 93 Posted September 13, 2012 Stay away from "fishy gear" if it looks too good to be true well it usually is then. I understand your frustration but you kinda put yourself in a bad position and it ended up biting you in the a**. Keep on keeping on man at least its only 24 hr ban Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All we really know is you got a 24 hour ban for using an illegitimate gun, maybe you will think twice about picking another one up on their server?They got camps in a few spots i have found so i can really only assume it would be the server owners. Besides i haven't killed anyone on that server in the last 2 weeks, nor do i alt-f4 plus the message came up clear as day saying what the ban was for. I really don't care enough to get the server banned or whatever as i will just play on another one it was more to the point of allowing people to own servers being a bad thing as you will get unjustified examples of this everyday. More to the point i just find it's ironic how i can get banned for having a weapon on a server i found on that very same server, doesn't add up to me.Also i saw 47 satchel charges. Hoard skills level 99, me thinky no mate.So, you're admitting you made a mistake, but the mistakes made by the other guys were bigger and therefore you shouldn't have been banned for 24 hrs? I see you're sensitive, but as of right now you're the hypocrite.uhhhhh.....So one of my frequented servers recently placed a 24hr ban on me for possessing a TWS. Not gonna justify it, just simply put, I FOUND IT IN ONE OF THEIR TENTS!!I don't get how i'm being a hypocrite. You wanna know the truth? Never had one so yeah i did wanna give it a go. I didnt spawn it so why should i care. Edited September 13, 2012 by Devmagic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aHzdaNny 49 Posted September 13, 2012 I don't get how i'm being a hypocrite. You wanna know the truth? Never had one so yeah i did wanna give it a go. I didnt spawn it so why should i care.You seem to be caring a lot now. Bitching about a 24-hour ban is pointless though. Wait it out like everyone else or play on one of the thousands of other servers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devmagic 36 Posted September 13, 2012 one moment, so does anyone actually take the time to read someone's post before flaming them for bitching. as i have stated, the fact i got banned doesnt bother me, there's thousand of servers to choose from. my point, ONCE AGAIN, is that as i've not heard how rockets is going to structure the server system for his standalone i HOPE he doesn't do it like the alpha BECAUSE people, namely hacky people, can abuse their servers to the fullest and then punish the guy who just happens to catch them out and take their shit. I REPEAT, i just find it ironic one can get banned from a server for having a hacked weapon, found on that very same server, during that very same session. My question to you all is this, if everyone gets banned from this server for having a hacked weapon, how did i just happen upon one in a tent city on that server? plus the whole getting banned for picking it up just seems a little hypocritical, just saying. Never seen so many peeps defend a hacker owned server before, damn! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never seen so many peeps defend a hacker owned server before, damn!While some server admins may be aware of everything on the map placed(some funky ways..), some aren't so knowledgeable.. I once showed a server admin where almost all the vehicles were spawning each restart, along with a few tents that had a couple hacked guns. He had no idea. This doesn't apply to every situation, it may be their camp or not. It could still be power tripping or someone not wanting a hacked in gun being used on their server. I don't know.

phnordarossa 15 Posted September 13, 2012 If you can provide proof that the server is owned by hackers, then go for it and reveal them. No one is defending a "hacker owned" server. You're just the only one pointing at it. In fact, you could have tried the AS50 TWS in Arma2 without any trouble. Instead, you're getting yourself into trouble by picking it up and not even providing screenshots or videos from the hackers' base. It seems that you did not care about the hacked in weapons until you got banned for a day.And I do not see any solution to the problem that there are server admins who don't know how to do administrating or are complete morons, except: Just don't play on that server anymore and/or provide proof of the hacks.

This one however left me stunned, it seems the admin has done his job properly by banning me for having them, what i don't understand is that if they ARE that dedicated and they ARE checking the logs to verify suspicious activity then perhaps cleaning up his/her server of all these hacked weapons would also be a priority. But they haven't which can only lead me to believe that they are his or his clan's. I just hope Rocket leaves his servers out of the hands of the public as they will just get abused time and again.

thesaurusRex 7 Posted September 13, 2012 I got a M4A1 Holo SD off a hacker who killed me, took my gun, and put his on my corpse. Consolation prize I guess. Didn't realize it was hacked til I look at the wiki. Once I found a replacement (SAW, which I prefer anyway) I destroyed the cursed weapon on a zombie's corpse that I hid :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sticker704 121 Posted September 13, 2012 What?! You got banned from a server for using a hacked gun?! Un-fucking-believable... stupid admins... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted September 13, 2012 Well, were knee deep in this thread now and all we've really found out is that you've got a 24 hour ban for carrying a hacked weapon. Buy the time we get to the bottom of this your ban will be lifted and the world can resume spinning.P.S - Hacking and admin abuse are 2 different things.

skunk.five@gmail.com 44 Posted September 13, 2012 Hypocrisy, irony, abuse of power... these things are not new. Next time you get on, revisit the camp, take all the hacked gear and bury them in a zed corpse. Help the admin out by cleaning up the tainted gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hawc 63 Posted September 13, 2012 Unless admins really are skiddies, for which there is no proof except your assumption, I applaud them for temp banning people who are "testing" illegal weapons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
