US1993 admin abuse

Recommended Posts

Server Name: US 1993

Timezone: Central

Date/Time: 10:30ish PM

Server Admin: (OCN)Vortech

What Happened: I was hacked on another server by a guy who took control of my body and started shooting a large machine gun, seemingly out of my chest. I disconnected and logged back in and had control over my body, but got kicked when I would press escape. This happened a few times. I was recommended another server (1993) by a friend on Ventrilo because he said it was good with hacker control. I logged in, but the same thing kept happening when I would press escape. It would show some error related to yakb.paa/bag/and maybe a skin. Finally I decided to check my bag and noticed I had 4 clips in there, except they had no image, just the green bar indicating the amount of ammo left. I dropped them right there, and pressed escape to see if that was the issue, and it was. I wasn't kicked after that. I played fine for about an hour with no other issues until I was banned. When I asked about the ban they gave me the following log. I tried to explain myself, but they are "just being safe". Claiming that I hacked the items in game myself.

Evidence:

Snip!

There is no other evidence of me hacking. It was unfortunate circumstance and I don't know if the logs go any further to show that I got rid of the items. I'm unsure if these logs are something I can access on my computer so I can provide evidence, or if it's just server side. I do know they are selective about banning people with illegal items seeing as many of the (OCN) guys have been reported to be using hacked in weapons (some openly admitted to it). At this point I've been submitted to a CBL as a hacker for no reason. Selectively choosing to ban outsiders and not their "friends" is abuse. Adding me to a community ban list is unfair.

Temporarily Approved

Was this server a Private Hive?

Try to get some of the Server Admins/Staff to take a look at this thread.

Hello chalky,

My name is Allan and I am the Gameserver Manager over at Overclock.net. I am in charge of the upkeep and oversee all the gameserver related material that occurs on OCN. At this point Vortech is currently away on a business trip. So I will be handling and reviewing your case. From what I see from our logs and what you have said, I see see where you are coming from and where he is. I do know about the taking over of people in game in DayZ. I haven't seen a lot of cases of it but I do know it's possible. Our servers are very popular and seem to have visits from hackers quite frequently so we try and keep them under control and from ruining other guests time on our servers. The logs show you have "minigun" ammo in your inventory. I know most of the hacks don't have this option so this is probably why he banned you from just seeing that. I will at this time unban your GUID from our servers and wish to welcome you back to play. If you experience anymore type of problems with your character being taken over please make sure to try and contact the server admins where it occurred so they can try and catch the person responsible. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to PM on here.

Thanks again,

Allan

Gamserver Manager @ Overclock.net
