    Sure and there is loads to choose from, but hey why not put the effort into creating one yourself. Some people talk and some people do ;)

    It's easy to find Liberation in this scenario, start another server :D and we aren't hoarding, we have found other camps that had far more than us.



    LOL you expect Dev's to test each host server, yea good luck with that. I update people on the server when I'm going to restart most of the time but sadly the tool for sending server wide messages is rather unstable.

    Why moan about the server I run, just start your own server or use one of the others, no-one is forcing you to use the IRE1 server. You actually have freewill ! :p


    So what you're saying is "It's my party and I'll cry if I want to". I have been playing on other servers for more than a week now, I have 0 interest in playing on yours. I do however, have an interest in how the server is being run for the Irish community, and 100% do not tolerate the "our way or the high way" attitude you reek of. If you do implement a server lock down, I'm personally going to report you to the dev's. That's all I'm going to say on this matter.

    Wow, Lacoona...I've never seen somebody that has such a giant hardon for drama as you do.

    I really hope that's all you have to say in this matter, as my head hurts from reading your drivel!

    Locking down the server is part and parcel to updating a server on any game for testing.

    I've had to do this on my own servers for other games in case whatever changes I made didn't screw the thing up giving me a headache to fix it and telling everyone to get off the server again.

    If you had a real interest you would spend your time on hosting a server rather than moaning about one from over a 1000.

    If you want to report the server for been locked while testing to mammy work away, however next time you are looking for a server to join check out how many are locked or password protected first

    Wow I can't believe the attitude of Villain here. It's a game and yet you talk like your lord muck around here.

    I'll find different FREE servers to play on that's not run by a moanbag.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,632 ✭✭✭Laviski


    i loved how this thread evolved over the 255 pages.....

    i didn't know villian till i played dayz, and from talking to him he's a decent guy and helps out anyone if he can in game or just getting pc help.
    you guys just need to drop it stop the drama play the game don't like it play on another server. your not forced to join this particular server over the other 1000 or so servers.

    There no FREE servers but there are people who don't contribute to servers yet play them.

    Two points

    * I was not aware that the public funded these. (Having paid for the game, most other games I paid for never asked for money to play on a server)

    * I would gladly pay a contribution to a server not run by lord buzz killington.

    Most servers are paid for by someone and managed by someone. People can contribute and don't need to pay to help out but it helps.

    I don't see any moaning in his posts or any other posts except those whom argued with him. I take that back, its not arguing, its just babies moaning to a man holding his own lolly and they want it.

    Well I play Team Fortress 2, World of tanks and Dawn of war 2 online without any of this messing around.

    I thought that the games company itself hosted the servers which were funded by the massive revenue and advertising they made from the game+websites.

    I understand that this is a free mod and was not produced by major developer. On Dayz FAQ webpage it says that they are not currently accepting donations. How am I supposed to know that Villian is?

    So if I see him whining about closing his server down and telling people to go cry to their mammy forgive me if I think his attitude sucks.

    And Here I though I found a friendly Irish gaming community.

    How much of this thread did you even read... it sounds like you read the last two pages and thats it.

    Villain said he was will close the server for a short while for some testing after he changes the config files and all that techy stuff and that he will let the people who donate and those who are active on the mumble in to test it.. and then everybody who has yet to donate and is not ever on the mumble started complaining and moaning to him and insulting him... then you come along and you haven't even read much of the thread and you start complaining about him too?

    Most games do have a lot of servers by the game developer but also allow users to host their own servers if they buy hosting space from some provider..

    Forgive me if I think you're an idiot.

    Lol at the cheap shots. I called Villain on this, and it wasnt about testing either. He clearly dictated that he intended to lock the server allowing only those who donated to it to join, and I pointed out that he couldnt.

    The rest is smoke and mirrors. He cant do this, and if he does, as you can see from the posts of myself and others, we will call him on it. Its against the ethos of the game, and its nothing but childish to bandy about cat calls about running to mammy.

    Its a public server, and we are the public!

    That's not a very good way to gain any credibility...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 917 ✭✭✭TheFairy


    No one is stopping him, we all clearly know that. I've run clan servers etc for years so know the ins and outs of it. You ask peeps to donate if they want to. If they dont you do not cock yer leg and take aim!

    Stop moaning, most people in the server join for free like any other, and besides, if he shuts it down how does that make him care about his credibility. He clearly doesn't give a ****, as the amount of people playing his server isn't in the 10s of thousands, only people will be annoyed will be the likes of you, oh wait you're already annoyed.

    But most games and most servers do add a lot of benefits to those who donate.
    Anyone who donates on this server just does it because they enjoy playing on the server.
    Anybody who hasn't donated has the exact same experience as those who have so I don't know where you're getting this "cock yer leg and take aim" attitude from..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,824 ✭✭✭RoyalMarine


    so let me get this right.....

    villian locked the server for "testing reasons..."
    he then only allowed the people who have donated to join the server...

    hmmm....


    personally, with no disrespect to anyone individually, but that sounds like ye wanted to have free time to run around, gather vehicles, crashed heli sites etc etc etc...

    or am I reading too much into this?

    He's saying why lock it and only let those who donate in, this is the case as they keep claiming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 917 ✭✭✭TheFairy


    Villian and friends, you seem to be missing the general consensus here, and its clearly that you "seem" to be taking the high ground when we pointed out you couldn't do what you proposed.

    No need to turn it into a slanging match. Its clear which players play within the boards groups by their mis aimed replies.

    You cannot lock the server for donating players, end off. Get over it and we can all move on. Ive had have my suspicions about the locked for testing, but you have stated it was for other reasons.

    Villain can shut it down and you wont have your lovely day fluffing about in the server anyway, so shut up already, no one gets in not even the paying supporters.
