US 1799 - hosted by Shadows of Syn

[SquishyBear 31]

Server name: US 1799

Timezone: mine: PST, server: UCT -4

Date/ Time: not sure, about two weeks ago

Server Admin: no idea but it is hosted by Shadows of Syn

What happened:

Being the bandit I am I keep my eye out for camps, both on servers and on the forum. I found a post talking about a major camp on 1799 at International Airport, just north of the Northern barracks. So of course I went and checked it out and lo and behold, there is a major camp there. It is LLTS' clan camp, stretched throughout the airport, 20+ tents and some vehicles.

Anyway, I'm happily raiding their tents, carrying whatever I can, I then turn around and run away, out of the airport when I start getting shot at. Now I did the pussy thing and combat disconnected but then I was only there for the raid, not a fight (excuses I know). The only two people on with me at that point were two guys with LLTS tags.

Next day I try to rejoin to see what I may have missed and get that:

So I recruit the hubby to go in there and have a look for himself (at this point I'm thinking I got banned for DCing which is still against hosting rules but I could have understood that), which he did. The server was empty at that point, no one else on during the entire time he was there. He looted a few tents, found a bus, blew it up, looked around some more, then returned to our "home server". Next day, tries to join and gets the same screen as posted above.

I also browsed this forum for "1799" and found several other threads with people complaining about getting banned after discovering the airport camp, regardless of whether they looted anything or not.

Apparently US 1799 is a public private server where everybody can join... once.

Evidence: Well, all I have is the screenshot but anyone can go on there and try for themselves. I'm still planning on sending a few friends over there to see if it will happen to them as well. Also I remember a few pop up messages after joining the server, pretty much stating that the server gets restarted whenever the owners feel like it and people will get banned for this, that and the other thing. It all sounded a little off, that's the best way I can word it.

I'm the aforementioned hubby. I was banned by log, because no one was online but I performed the service of removing a number of items from their tents. I think it took me five or six trips(server hops) to get all the weapons out of their tents that I wanted. Perhaps I was banned because I also saved the tents after removing weapons from them. Perhaps it was the destruction of their bus that really set them off. In any case, I too am banned.

I think the above user needs to be banned. He's spam-advertising a dating site.

Mission accomplished.

Anyone NOT banned to this server willing to make a raid? I can provide a couple satchel charges Ive been holding onto.
