How to claim your server @ Gametracker.com

[msn4nerds@hotmail.com 1]

Hello to all,

I want to claim our DayZ server at Gametracker.com but to do so require's me to temp. rename the server to a title gametracker gives me (To confirm I can acces the server as admin and can truly claim the server)

This is a one time process and after claiming the server the name can be restored to the previous state...

Sound simple enough and I have done this several times with older games we had servers for.

The kickers is this what i found in the config file

// Attention: Please do not edit "DayZ - [LOCAL ID] (v1.7.2.5/BETA 96061)[3P:on CH:off]dayzmod.com"

// But your Servername next to last "-"

hostname = "DayZ - DE 3502 (v1.7.2.6/97019) [Veteran|3P:on|CH:off|[GMT +1]dayzmod.com - by s.w.e.d TS3:95.156.230.32:5472"; //Only change the "Hosted by xyz" text.

So now im confused if i cant change the name how can i claim it...

I have seen claimed dayz servers but in all honestly 99% of them are private hives....

Can you get blacklisted for even changeing the server name for 15 minutes and then change it back or is this one of those zero tolerance point of views?

Can anyone shed a light on this subject?

tnx

I did it on my server and I don't have a private hive server. Just changed the part of the servername 'hosted by..'. It took less than two minutes for gametracker to recognize it and register.

Of course you need to have an account over at gametracker.

I changed the whole hostname to claim the server in GameTracker, it takes about a minute to do it, claim it and change it back again
