I never got a chance to play on the server.. Are you guys blacklisting it now?
[QUOTE=ghosevil;39536007]I never got a chance to play on the server.. Are you guys blacklisting it now?[/QUOTE]
Pretty sure you mean a whitelist.
Whitelist = only people on this list can join
Blacklist = people on this list can't join
I remember when I played with codemonkey, we would always complain about abusive admins.
Kind of ironic that now he's become one.
[QUOTE=Kath;39535364]I think the grand irony is that they were proud of getting the LAV and killing some of us with it but I'm reality that was spawned in too, calling themselves legit players even though they just said they backpack duped and the LAV they had was spawned[/QUOTE]
We didn't dupe anything on this server when you spawned in shit.
I don't think we have since it was on Taviana.
Why are you arguing over irrelevant things? Just agree the fact that it happened was stupid and don't go back if shit like that happens.
Okay I'm just throwing this out there and hopefully this gets to Rocket/DayZ team somehow.
Currently if players are caught, they can just disconnect and reconnect later avoiding capture or confrontation. [B]With a NEW DISCONNECTING SYSTEM[/B] this could be rectified giving players the opportunity to rob players, capture or in general just avoid people cheating danger.
[I]When players disconnect there character will still be logged into the game world for say 30 seconds[/I] with a very small disconnect icon above their head that can only be seen at a reasonable close distance. This means players will have to find a safe location to logout and save their character. Otherwise they'll end up with a bullet in their head if they attempt to ALT+F4 from a threat of violence from player or zombie.

Done right I think this could make the game a hundred more times interesting and result in some very interesting interactions between players. Right now any kind of abduction is purely voluntary by both parties and role played, imagine if you were really abducted with real consequences.
Hopefully someone can get this idea to the DayZ team if they believe it's of any worth.

One more creative suggestion I believe could add more consequence to player's actions and wanting to avoid death more than just because they can "loose good gear".
Basically if you were in a clan, you could die and they have a cache of gear somewhere and you're ready to go. So you wouldn't really fear death all that much. However if you have to invest time into your characters [U]skills[/U] then it would add more depth to that threat of "permanent death".
Skills:

I don't mean player leveling that gives players advantages in combat or anything substantial but more less a [B]Skill Leveling System that is progressive as you interact with things, the more you do something, the better you are at it.[/B] Everyone can repair, craft and heal however they start at a 10% chance of success with their items, and if they fail they loose those items. However if they succeed then they get their desired crafting/repair and also increase their skill performance meaning the next time they do that action they have a less chance of failure.

If you've had a character survive in the world for a couple of weeks and increased their skill dramatically, meaning they are a more reliable healer, repairman or crafter, yourself or your group (if you are apart of one) the consequence of death would be even higher than just loosing gear that can be easily replaced by a hidden cache.

This already happens.

In the DayZ Mod? That is only combat logging, meaning someone has to actively shoot at you or you shoot them. This system would prevent people from Disconnecting in the middle of a verbal confrontation with someone, or even running away and hiding behind a corner then D/Cing.

It's challenging enough for a fresh spawn to acquire useful loot and you would have that gear fall apart in their hands because of a dice-rolling mechanic?
No.
It's disappointing enough getting killed as a fresh spawn and you would give the trolls a wider avenue to abuse people? Only if there was a suicide option.
No.

Rocket has stated he's making this as a social experiment rather than a game, rather than a prepackaged entertainment piece. Just figured these kind of suggestions would work toward that creative goal.

So my partner's been trying to use the new scroll lock menu to check out his stats, but his keyboard doesn't seem to have scroll lock. He has [url=http://img.desktopshop.nl/toetsenborden/logitech/460696/01/logitech-media-keyboard-600.jpg]this keyboard[/url] and neither one of us can figure out how to use scroll lock.
So... Does anyone have any ideas?

Some newer Logitech keyboards lack the key because it is so infrequently used.
so this server that all the drama happened on... was it a facepunch server?
By the way Codemonkey has been spawning shit for awhile :v:
I'm a admin on the mumble they used to use all the time and I would listen in on their channel, it's been happening for longer then you guys realize.
People will hate me for posting about this but whatever, shit's already blowing up over this.
I think the whole thing was less of "oh they raided the camp!!!!111!1!" but I think it was more "they shouldn't have that LAV" which was going to be used for another event.

Or you know it was code spawning in shit for his own wants. Then using admin maps to raids peoples camps.
Maybe just maybe its that.
EDIT: What do ya know? Code seems to be retreated into his shame hole.
Or maybe it's us having been outside today playing airsoft and not really giving much of a shit.

Both of these were AI controlled and only appeared after the server restarted, and you're telling me someone [I]didn't[/I] spawn those in?[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=ZestyLemons;39531054]There's no way those were players in the tanks, they had red tracers and they fired the main cannon at the helicopter. It' was AI for sure.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;39531254]YOLOMenu has a builtin AI spawner. And since YOLOHack is now public, that's gonna happen more often.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Amez;39531273]I thought you get kicked for script restriction if you even try to fire the main cannon? I'm not saying it's AI but that's odd that they were firing at a helicopter.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=TheTalon;39532238]I saw the whole thing, and I've played hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of hours in Arma with ACE. There weren't but about 10 of us on the server, and both tanks had at least 2 people in them each, and given how one was also shooting at us, in the Mi-8 with the .50, atleast one had a commander. One tank had either a human or AI driver, and 2 more AI crewman, the other had at least one AI and one human driver. Not only that, whoever was spawning them had the ability to teleport them. I know the vanilla M1's are a bit fast, but they covered 1000m in like 30 seconds when we first spotted them. We flew over a couple times, they were there, and there was at least one human survivor running around the tanks. We flew back around a 3rd or 4th time and they were gone, and near the coast over a mile away.
And after I accidentally fell out of the helicopter to my death and was on the ground again, I watched them roll through Elek twice, the lead M1 definitely had a human in it. Whoever was responsible wasn't abusing it against players so I don't really mind it myself. Poor Bazzie took a 105mm up the ass though. One tank was firing the main cannon while I don't think the second ever did[/QUOTE]

So, basically, people are doing what people do in DayZ. Spawn things in, dupe, raid each other's camps, kill each other, and then get mad.
I'm not seeing the problem here.
okay so not playing on codes server. I was killed by you guys riding the fucking tanks through elektro I have screen shots. okay whatever. we had multiple choppers stored up north , I hid mine somewhere else just in case. so I went and picked up my squad (volts, caik space,UWF etc) and we land somewhere to exchange loot that they found at an admin base. the base was couple kms west from our original one. anyways milk tree told us he found an LAV at NWAF so he drove to us etc. then a random restart but I was told code monkey spawned in something. I was thinking another event. then we hear roars from the distance and code monkey playing music. then I see 2 a10s begin to fly towards our way and shoot at us like they knew we were the entire time. so I got in the gunner of the lav and started shooting the jets which luckily I got one because doctor is an idiot and tried to strafe at us low but stalled, I filled his engines and he crashed into the trees. then we ran into Kath with our lav. I got kicked by accidentally trying to refill the ammo.
I'm not complaining because I'm dead, but complaining that you don't know how to fucking run your server properly. Try letting the players play normally instead of spawning shit.

As someone who (usually) only lurks the thread it sounds like you're all getting a lot upset over a little problem.
Slap him, don't go back to the server, and call it done.

I haven't not been here. I've been rating peoples post once in awhile but for the most part any attempt to defend myself is going to be decried by everyone and just cause more drama so I'm being quiet. Everyone can believe what they want. The only time I spawned anything for my own personal needs was the A-10's because that LAV was going to be used for an event and at that particular moment in time I didn't have plans to make it a regular spawn. I spawned that LAV two hours before it was stolen, in that two hours we went to do an event with Goose where we pretended to be a bunch of corrupt Small-Town Cops.
But than he shot us AFTER we gave him a prize for being such a good sport, which is DayZ typical I guess. So we spent two hours gathering together in a VW on the coast so by the time we got back to camp the LAV was gone which was suspicious. Since I didn't want to straight out ban/kick anyone or delete the LAV I thought the A-10 would be a better way of destroying it so we didn't have random people speeding through cherno running people down. I even played Top Gun through the Mic as we flew over.
But like I said, I don't really [i]need[/i] to defend myself. I know the real story, but if I say "I never did this" everyone will just knock me down again.
I mean, they're so animate that we are teleporting but it's [i]literally something I cannot do.[/i] As an admin, I do not have the power to do that. I've gotten so many people saying they were stuck and all I can do is find them, shoot them and restore their inventories. We have videos of us flying helicopters and driving around for the same instances people say "teleport hacks!"
I mean, WHY do I need to teleport in an A-10 and how? The thing goes 500MPH for christ sake. Up until this A-10 thing the only time I spawned vehicles and items was for events. The reason we have an 'admin' camp was so we can gather up people and material. It's REALLY hard to stage an event like say, Evacuate Taviana when the six people you need to drive the trucks and the planes are on six different points of the maps with Lee Enfields and no vehicles. It was all assembled before hand and ready to go so we could have a concrete time to begin the event and go straight to Sabina with the trucks. It was like that with every event.
For this reason it was REALLY annoying that within hours of making a new camp the [i]same people always found it[/i]. And they were ALWAYS bad sports about it. They'd find a camp and without grasping anything start bitching in sidechat "Oh found your camp. GG man u mad nice loot lololol bad admin spawns shit 0/10" so I just got tired of them and didn't give two shits if they left. Because I think the PvE side of DayZ is underplayed anyway and didn't care if my numbers drop because I know that, eventually this will all blow over.
I also need to stress that -I- have only once, ever raided a camp myself. I've only shot a very limited amount of people because I'm not very good at DayZ and even if I was I don't like shooting people for no reason. The people that I use to help me stage events play the Server as regular players too and they usually lone-wolf it or play in little groups and they'll raid or shoot and because they do it they associate it with me. For example, Doctor. He's a straight up lunatic and I can't control him. Like I know the other night there was a big shit-fit because Doctor shot someone and took their helicopter and shit. I have no control over him, he's just a player that I use to help me drive trucks when I need him.
I can't help but notice that no one bitches when I spawn them vehicles or weapons for compensation. For example, when someone found the UHY1 (The one I THOUGHT had disabled missiles) and shot someone down with it, I brought them a new Huey. (Zesty and Rusty I think were the two) They didn't say "omg ur spawning shit! bad admin! 0/10" when I give them vehicles or when I restore glitched inventories, or hand out prizes for participating in events.
What you people also seem to not get, is it's impossible/difficult to defend myself because I'm only one admin. That's it. Just me. There are like two groups of people who think I'm exploiting or cheating, but only one of me so they'll all shout in unison and everything I say will be drowned out and they win because they're the most animate.
Anyway, that's all I've got to say. Now you can all stop, if you still cannot let this go than PM me, or PM each other but there are probably a dozen people who read this thread that have no interest in hearing us all bitch, attack and defend each other. We get it, I'm a bad admin and you hate the server. Never go again and stop talking about it.
