    Granted, there will be awesome Xeno-rounds very often. Completely fixed and perfectly balanced. Superfun! But they will always happen when you are not online

     

    I wish that Adr would oppose the Emperor

    So this was from a chaotic round. I was playing as my Kidan, Azrael Von Ezra, who was a security officer. HAving survived pretty much Changelings. Spiders. Bad ERT. And very wildrunning civillians, I managed to get on the shuttle. Underway I managed to get a few upgrades on my gear which included belt and backpack of holding, galoshes (found them around, No slipping anymore!!!) and an advanced energy gun. Used them well as an officer of the law.

     

    Well, with the war-lusty civillians that round. It was more like this...

     

     

    After we boarded the shuttle and it left, the ?CMO? (i think it was) Squishy came and asked me for my backpack real quick. Knowing what the evil slime was up to. Made me surrender it immediately for its evil schemes. So being buckled right under the Heads cockpit I kind of itched to know what would happen.

     

    After shuttle landed the lag was almost immediatley. And suddenly a wild Singuloth appeared right above me. I survived because I was buckled in the chair.

     

    ALL HAIL LORD SINGULOTH

    Hey there. First of all of course a thank you for posting on our forums.

     

    It took some time since I have had to dig out all the logs regarding this matter.

     

    Regens already gave good points.

     

    But let me take the logs to show what went on

     

    [09:55:20]ACCESS: Login: Vicempon/(Max Bailey) from -3557298363 || BYOND v506

    [09:55:21]ACCESS: Login: Tietovallu/(Cohen Lombardi) from -1879897372 || BYOND v506

     

    --- Round starts

     

    [09:56:51]ATTACK: Cohen Lombardi(tietovallu) attacked Honk McSlips(wispx) with mechanical toolbox(INTENT: HARM) (DAMTYE: BRUTE)

    [09:56:52]ATTACK: Max Bailey(vicempon) attacked Honk McSlips(wispx) with mechanical toolbox(INTENT: HARM) (DAMTYE: BRUTE)

     

    ---Haven't said anything towards eachother prior to this attack ^ although a very coordinated attack (1 second between both of them starting) Also both of them attacking the clown after less then 2 minutes in game

     

    Max Wiley, into helping me because I spared him after absorbing the clown.

     

    ---These attack logs go for a good while. Clown is dead.

     

    [09:57:10]SAY: Cohen Lombardi/Tietovallu : Yo

    [09:57:15]SAY: Cohen Lombardi/Tietovallu : Watch the door

    [09:57:16]SAY: Max Bailey/Vicempon : Hey dude

     

    ---Cohen absorbs Honk

     

    [09:59:23]SAY: Cohen Lombardi/Tietovallu : Hey

    [09:59:29]SAY: Max Bailey/Vicempon : Hey buddy

     

    --- silence while they both move towards their next victim

     

    ^ This is not being coerced in any way as you told me to. And this alone already suggests the out of game chat. And its only the tip of the iceberg.

    This goes for almost the entire round. With you not saying much to him or visa versa. Like almost nothing

     

     

     

     

    Now on to what happend when i came on

     

    I saw you eating an SSD.Which wasn't allowed

    I acted

    [11:06:42]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): what are you doing? SSD people are not to be touched unless admins allow so

    [11:06:51]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): Completing my objectives?

    [11:07:31]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): still not allowed

    [11:07:43]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): Why d id you freeze the guy helping me?

     

    I froze him since he was actually breaking the rules at that point. To prevent further damage with him breaking the rules.

    After he was dragging you away when a security officer saw you on a husk and tasered you. I froze him. Which resulted in you getting caught. What was supposed to happen since he wasn't suppose to help you.

     

    [11:12:10]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): he was helping you unlegit

    [11:12:22]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): i coerced him into helping me, how is that not elgit

     

    Pointing the logs on top. Yes, that is not legitly coerced and at that point we already suspected it to be such. It seemingly is so that I have to repeat myselfy to you often and say it again. Self-antagging is not okay. in rare cases coerce can be achieved if the admins allow it.

     

    But it doesn't matter much to you since you weren't self-antagging.

     

    [11:13:25]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): show me where threatening an assistant with physical violence is self antagging because it doesnt say that in the rules <--- still explained as above. except this never happend as such. He helped you a long way before, killing already plenty of guys, you gave this whisper;

     

    [10:57:20]WHISPER: Derek Gallagher/Tietovallu : Help me absorb three more, then we need to steal this guy's brain. Then i'll let you go.

    ^ an hour in game playing together. First real thing you said to him

     

    [11:13:34]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): no, that means you take the fault for making the assastant antag

     

    Shame on me. This is ofc not something that would have happend. You do NOT take fault for someone else self-antagging. Also not why you are banned for.

     

    [11:14:04]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): Cite me the line that says it does

    I referred you to rule 7 for this. yet you simply went on to discuss this for reason that it doesn't say it in letter.

    It is kind of impossible to write every possible scenario down in our rules. And maybe even harder to read and understand it if it was so.

    that is why we have rule 1 and.. common sense. Even in rule 7 there is a line that describes your problem.

     

    While there is no absolute way to be clear what is and isn't self antagging, as always, if in doubt, adminhelp, and if an admin tells you to desist, do so at once.

     

    [11:14:05]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): because I say it is self-antagging

     

    Well, it is very blunt. But I was honestly tired of this. If every time get a penny when I would need to explain why we don't have those millions lines of scenarios and that rule 1 applies. I would be a millionaire. So I apologies if this felt like the 'hungry-poweredadminadbuuz' But it really isn't. Rule one covers most of our needs on this. We also rely on the common sense of the players themselves. Else we get situations like this.

     

    [11:14:49]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): That

    [11:15:42]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): is retarded and you're a shitty admin for not giving a proper jsutification. I'll be filing a complaint

    [11:16:01]ADMIN: PM: Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra)->Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher): i'm a shitty admin?

    [11:16:07]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): You can't cite the rules

    [11:16:12]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): you just say :Because i say so

    [11:16:19]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): nothing in the rules says the admisn can just make stuff up

    [11:16:26]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): this isnt archangel

    [11:16:37]ADMIN: PM: Tietovallu/(Derek Gallagher)->Xilia/(Azrael Von Ezra): you deliberately intervened and caused me to get caught based on a faulty rule

     

     

    This got you banned. I don't have to explain (i hope) how hostile this is and bad attitude towards an admin who was activly pm'ing regarding the problem. In a hope it figures out. You would be suprised how often you can get away if you just say; 'Ah alright. I'm sorry. Didn't know that. It won't happen again.'

    of course if you don't have a good list of notes or bans on your name with similar problems.

     

    Your buddy would have gotten away if he didn't went on the same route too.

     

    Also adding what you said to me afterwards on byond PM

    When we ban someone it has the purpose of having the regarding player come to the forums where we are free of distractions that happens in game. in order to get the details on the problem. I told you multiple times to post it on the forums. But you went on about it

     

    27yvqsm.png

     

    Blocked you to prevent more escalation where you would regret more things you said

     

    Not really acceptable though

     

    Your attitude has been the biggest problem in this case. Discussing and even insulting when someone else disagrees.

     

    Again made me tired of it.

     

    We can pm all we want but if you refuse to accept an admins stand of point and insults him for that. You get banned. Especially for the insulting.

     

    Making it clear ; you do not get fault for the self-antagging if the other guy.

    But trying to defend the guys behavior when I stopped him went wrong. Hostile behavior when I was explaining that coercing like that is not allowed and refusing to accept this. leaded to this ban

     

     

    i hope this clears up many things

     

  4.  

    i've come up with these ideas through the course of playing as a crew member in a wheelchair. I'm hoping to get 10 or so thought of in the time i'm playing.

     

    1. Bad lungs : it requires you to breath using a oxy tank and mask otherwise you have trouble breathing normally. distribution pressure of the tank must be at 30. downside is it's easier to get a collapsed lung. you spawn in with one extended capacity emergency oxy tank with a special name and a mask already on and full. special name would be something along the lines of "Lucy Lyn's oxygen tank" indication of someone with this dissability would be the oxy tank and mask, they are coughing and wheezing whenever they arent on and they cant breath periodically when the mask is off and or tank is empty.

     

    2. Paralysis : i.e you have limbs but they dont work, would be the same as amputation except your icon shows the limbs and a self examination says your fine apart from the paralysis. same spawning dynamics as amputated limbs.

     

    3. Alcoholic : must drink alcohol to stay sane and in a semi-functional manner. can be cured though the process is long and sometimes deadly depending on how the patient reacts. going long stints without alcohol causes hallucinations, rage, and various other symptoms. spawns with a personal flask full of whiskey.

     

    4. Smoker : must smoke every so often otherwise various symptoms start appearing due to withdrawal. Symptoms include itching, shaking, nervousness. spawns with a pack of cigarettes and a crappy lighter.

     

    5. Auto immune defficiency : You are more likely to get sick and contract the various diseases aboard the station.

    Personally i like them very much, especially the paralysis one. If more interesting dissabilities are added, I might consider creating a char for it. and it makes the world more believable, the RP stories more enjoyable and it is NOT prone to abuse... since why pick a disability else then RP it

    And for god sake, give the cane a legit use! Paralysis in one leg spawns you with a cane. something like that.

    Bucketlamp

     

    First of all; Welcome to the server

    Secondly; Thank you for posting your story here.

     

     

    Additional Complaint: While on the pod, like OP, I had expected some sort of syndicate attack, or any other antag attack (like the blob that manifested), what I didn't expect was to assaulted by server administration for breaking no rules that I know of. I feel that the murdering EVERYONE in the pod is a completely disproportionate punishment especially when admin have the ability to gib/kill/warn the offender directly.

     

    I feel that in this situation at best tactfulness slipped the admin's mind, at worst looking for a reason to flex some admin muscle. What's worse is that what had happened during the incident was essentially clear-cut pod/ shuttle grief in response to what was potentially grief of the same nature. I do not believe that you should break your own server's rules in order to preserve them, it's contradictory and hypocritical. A double standard like this just shouldn't exist.

     

    Outside of what I explained above. I want to say I understand your concern. And it is true the tactfulness was not the best. It can become extremely difficult to handle a server. And at times literally unmanageable. But I want to apologies to you that you got involved as bystander. Which was the only thing that I didn't meant to happen.

     

    Best regards

    First of all, thank you for taking your time on making this post.

     

     

    Admin Key: Xilia

     

    Complaint: It was a syndicate round, a couple of people I know and I were mining. It was a pretty epic round for us, we got a lot of swag from science for pulling in so many materials, and finally the shuttle was called. Worried about these syndicates, Full of Skittles threw up a wall and table to the space pods, so we had time to react to syndies coming.

     

    Now, I can understand if this is considered shuttle griefing, though it wasn't apparent to us at the time. And apparently Full of Skittles was messaged asking why she put it up, and hadn't noticed (we realized after combing through our logs) But I personally wasn't messaged at all (I put a wall in front of the door to the pod we were in, the other one was completely untouched) and Bucketlamp didn't have anything to do with it at all. He was just following us to the shuttle.

     

    Apparently a minute or so after receiving the message from Xilia, a chameleon suit (we assumed syndie) dude appeared, and started shooting Bucketlamp and me to death, followed by Full of Skittles. Killed all three of us. Two of which hadn't been messaged, one of which wasn't even involved. Only Full of Skittles was messaged afterwards. At first we had no idea what happened. We thought it was a syndie. What a horrible way to end a round where you contributed 11k of the 14k score. Full of Skittles got messaged after saying to 'to never do it again'.

     

    So, I feel like this is a complete mishandling of this issue. Only one warning was sent, during a flood of Bucketlamp and I throwing cards at eachother, and the radio, and when it wasn't responded to in a pretty short amount of time, we were killed (again, one of us not even involved) and only Full of Skittles was ultimately messaged. I feel like Bucketlamp, at least, if not me as well for not being messaged, was completely unfairly treated.

     

    Now on my side of the coin. I was dazing around, trying to straight up an already bad going auto-traitor round. With alot of just of barely border-crossing rule breaking and micro-grief. Which is extremely difficult to handle on its own already. When it was 4AM and the only admin online at the time. I saw some guys running from the arrivals to the escape hallway at minus 3 minutes of the departure of the shuttle. When I came looking. I saw the pods being locked off (with the exception of the table, what to me loses the point of closing it anyway but only to keep out people who aren't that informed about the game mechanics) and another pod locked off with three people in it.

     

    With some more ongoing ahelps I messaged Skittles. Since to me you looked like a group interacting with each other, I didn't message all to save time and keeping my logs a bit doable. After a minute and a bit I didn't expect you to answer at all anymore, with the admin-message sound being the most obvious sound in the game, while still seeing interaction from you guys in between. At that moment ahelps still came in. At that point I grew tired since we get this situation 50 times a day and brought the message harder. . It is true I could have being more tactful. And that was wrong on my side. But I guess the hours, griefing and being alone to handle it all took the toll at that moment.

     

    Nevertheless, after that I messaged Skittles again to get an answer almost immediately. Telling again about the locking off pods, after he replied where he showed he wasn't fully aware of it being gamebreaking for some players who missed that shuttle because of that, I told him to never do that again. But since I saw the action as hard enough, No names were noted which has on longer term a greater impact for the players noted. But again my course of action was harsh, and taken too fast, since I had one guy who apparently was a bystander, Bucketlamp. Who I am going to give a personal apology when I see him online again.

     

    Best regards

    Played dayz arma 2 mod. Vanilla, epidemic, breaking point and what else. Had alot of fun. played on middle servers from Europe. Avoiding most of the hackers, had one run in with a guest-admin with godmode on a server me and my friends were playing on, and since our group was the actually the majority of the people playing on that server, the owner of that server gave us custom skins and starting loadouts for apology. (we had a chick in our group that fixed it with the owner)

     

    Then Dayz SA came out. at first... it was meh. Zombies clipping through buildings. rotten fruit everywhere, lots of other bugs that could ruin your game. But recently its playable, no more clipping (I locked alot of zombies in houses, since the can't open doors. Suprising other players coming to loot those houses)

    Dayz SA focuses more on the player interaction and I have alot of fun on me and my brother capturing a player, handcuffing him. Putting a sack over his head so he was blind. to bring him somewhere where the rest of our group had another one captured. Tossing them in a house filled with zombies, given only a kitchen knife. The single survivor got patched up and a backpack filled with good gear ;) And other misc stuff.

     

    People that whine about shoot on sight; SA has set its spawns to more inlands places. Finding another player is not as easy as easy and bambi hunters are discouraged. The coast is no longer hunting grounds and even Electro and Cherno are pretty untouched. Encounters are mostly random run ins that are exciting. without it being a guy waiting with an sniper to just kill people.

    For me. SA is more the survival game (that is getting alot more as time passes) I like to play then dayz mod was.

    Also. Didn't encounter a hacker yet on SA

     

    Development is slow on that one. But it certainly has potentional.

     

    Never played arma 3 :(

     

  8.  

    Custom suggestion, based on game Papers, please= Custom has two stamps that works on ID's. People that round start get automaticly the access stamp on their id's, new players need to get it from customs. not having the stamp can get you arrested. When no custom is present, an autostamper at their office is present (it should be on on default and be turned off by custom officer when he gets to his office) Random events add criminal backgrounds to random players, giving the custom officer reason to deny access. Making Customs actually a real job to do and a reason for officers to check Id's

     

    Please add your ideas about this.

     

    -Mel ; Traitors have random ID discrepancies too

    -Tiger ; Oh, another thing about the stamps, they should show up when you flash an ID

     

  9.  

    Actually I play Grey often, that is a race that still needs something, in contrary with kidan pulse rifle block, diona super healing, lots of race that don't breath. Don't feel pain. Or can just claw. I suggest the Grey having actually sulp acid blood. they may be weak, but attacking them with a weapon without gloves will get your hands damaged or even chest if you have no clothes on. They can extract the blood with a syringe to fill cups for robocist or science use. Maybe even melt some traitor objects to remove evidence. Maybe temporary activated xray would be a good addon. Eyes should receive extra damage indeed.

     

    The lizard folks need some love too, but I haven't played them enough.
