    You may have played on it from the start, but you didn't make yourselves known and stayed clear of this thread.
    Once you guys stopped playing the game, and instead played to kill us thats when things went down hill.

    I could post the server log but seen as the player admitted to disconnecting what's the point, if apologised it was a week he didn't so it was a month then insulted people so dreamers75 said its a perm ban so I support that. If you want access to log files go start a server :D

    neither thornography or munkey have addmitted to disconnecting.
    you can go look at their posts, neither have said they disconnected, they actually denied disconnecting, and accused your friend of disconnecting, which you have chosen to ignore.

    and its funny, cause not only have you ignored that accusation, but you dont want to show the log file, which can only lead people to assume, that there is something there that you dont want the rest to see, a disconnect from a friend maybe?


    ive played on your server a few times, but like a few others have stated here, i wont be playing on it anymore.


    And i will say this, your right, its your server, and its your choice to ban who you see fit. but i really dont think this server should be in anyway implied to be associated with boards.ie considering the way you admin it.

    any other server in other games i have seen associated with boards has been admined in a mature way, as it can reflect the boards community.

    and if you havent been given permission to have boards.ie in your server name, i hope a mod on here asks you to remove it, and hope also other boards members that disagree with your admin techniques agree.

    It is an incredible game, the level of lasting playability is just as incredible too lol

    There are some situations where your just as nervous a few months in as when you just first started playing!

    I was looking forward to Max Payne 3 for so long but DayZ has made me totally forget I even bought MP3!

    i did the same, it took the UPC blackout last weekend for me to be able to finsih MP3 :P

    How old are these guys??

    "We were here here first"
    "You did it!"
    "No You Did it!"
    "You did it say sorry or else!"

    Come on lads grow up.

    You really need to read back he admitted to disconnecting and reconnecting in the same place he just tried to blame his Internet connection. Please read the posts before you start ranting.

    I (fortunately or unfortunately...i dunno lol) did not experience that blackout so my life has continued to spiral downwards through DayZ LOL

    Again, another person who skims over the posts.
    Nobody accused munkey of disconnecting, I will argue on his behalf that he did not disconnect, the two people we are accusing of disconnecting are [anti-boards] dafuq, and [anti-boards] erection. One of them logged out in front of me, and the other is shown on the logs of leaving and coming back 10mins later during the time of the fight.

    Munkey accused me of disconnecting, and it was not ignored. _vti posted the times that I logged in and out today, and munkey has since retracted the statement and said that he believes that I did not log out.

    Please read before you post uneducated crap like that.

    @Below, again read the damn posts.

    @Br4tPr1nc3

    Im not about to post up ~5hrs of server related logs on here, purely out of respect for the rest of the lads who use the forums.

    Im being totally impartial on this game, but in the last few hours I've experience more disconnects since I started playing this game, I posted up the most pertinent information which you can either lump or love.

    But AGAIN, as Retr0gamer has requested in the past, this is NOT a place for anything server related, however the official dayz forums is.

    how can you be impartial when you are one of the people being accused in relation to disconnecting. munkey and thornography have said it was either you or flying irish that disconnected into a hanger.

    so therefore you cannot be impartial.

    and as for server logs, im sure these come in text files, ergo you will not need to post them up here, and theres nothing to save others from.
    you simple need to attach a text file to here or any of the number hosting sites available.

    and please dont use what retrograme just said 2 mins before your post as a cop out for this issue.
    (no disrespect to retrogamer, i know you dont want server issues here, but this is to try bring and reasonable and fair end to these accusations.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 539 ✭✭✭Zatoichi


    I have played this game for hours and hours and I have never seen one canteen.

    Where the hell are they???

    Mostly in the redbricked buildings and supermarket, but it's usually a case of when you already have it you find them everywhere, and when you need it... :confused:

    I've just been scouting about for the past while looking for heli crash sites, but the amount of 'x has been killed' was pretty surprising. A few of it down to people respawning for better locations, but still odd. And one guy was apparently killed by himself.

    Once you guys stopped playing the game, and instead played to kill us thats when things went down hill.

    Because you clearly don't like change, we genuinely thought it would be amazing to get you to have 10 on 10 fights most nights of the week. Anti-boards wasn't meant as an insult, just a trigger for you to come hunt us, camping cherno racking up kills was meant to get you to come down form the hills and take cherno back. But nope, it led to this. Shame.

    I was PISSED off today when our fourth vehicle disappeared, because we just wanted to drive it straight into cherno, and watch other people fight for it. But nope, you took that away from us. And that is a huge problem, the server is completely biased towards the owners whim, which is understandable to a point. What happened between all of us shows exactly why you guys specifically should not be running this server. Associating your boards clan with boards.ie and Ireland for the whole world to see I think is disgusting and completely dis-respectful.

    Are you anti-boards-erection?

    Loosing Internet just as those around you die is far too much of a coincidence imo, an apology would be honest?

    and even here, you can see thornography doesnt admit to be anti baords erection and hes still told he will be banned.

    Not that I should try to justify, but here are the logs pertaining to FlyingIrishMan. Note that I have left out the hours of other people coming and going..

    14:16:43 Player [boards] FlyingIrishMan connected

    17:50:15 Player [boards] FlyingIrishMan disconnected

    Also, if you ask me to post the entire log, I think we both know where you know where you can go..

    this is hardly proof of your log in and off times.
    let me prove it, im gona show your server log files for me logging on and off:

    14:16:43 Player Himself connected

    17:50:15 Player Himself disconnected
    17:50:45 Player Himself connected

    17:55:00 Player Himself disconnected
    17:55:30 Player Himself connected

    20:50:15 Player Himself disconnected


    will I now be banned for all these server log connects and disconnects?

    We didn't take it away from you... the server was having huge desync issues so it was restarted. How on earth was villain to know you had just got a vehicle? We have lost more vehicles than you have ever seen from server restarts and other alpha ****. We don't complain though, because we know its nobody's fault. Its an alpha and **** happens.

    @If thats not proof enough for you then surely if the guy who first accused me of disconnecting takes it back and says that he just didn't see me walk into the hanger two feet away from me that has to be proof enough...

    I'm in the [boards] group on this particular server. I play with Villain and Vti, both of whom are server admins. As such, you might think I'm biased, but here are osme points I'd like to add. I've stayed out of the debate tonight, because it's handbags and QQ combined, for some parties in particular. I'm not going to start slagging people though. So:

    1. The only people who get banned are hackers and those proven to disconnect during pvp. I don't know what yer man Munky is pissing and moaning about, he hasn't been banned. Flying may have said something which could be inferred as meaning Munky disconnected , but accusations alone don't result in bans. The server logs need to be referred to.
    2. Server logs are private information. They simply shouldn't be published unexpurgated. I'd leave a server that published logs containing my data, in any game.
    3. I have no issue with how the server is admin'd. If there's unacceptable behaviour in the administration of the server, I've yet to see it. Bans, etc are handled in line with Team DayZ's recommendations.
    4. I'm not a long-standing part of Boards' tactical shooter community, but this server grew out of that. I joined purely for DayZ. I've found the [boards] group to be sound, even though in-game, they take no prisoners. There's a great convivial buzz, and for me they've made DayZ very entertaining.
    5. The [anti-boards] group are incredibly juvenile. If you read their posts and think, "They seem really sound, no way would they cheat", fair enough. However, if you spend much time on other forums, such as reddit.com/r/dayz you'll see that there is an epidemic of alt+f4'ing. I can't imagine why a reasonable person would be unwilling to imagine that this epidemic could spread to the irish server. These aren't outlandish claims.

    he started posting on the subject of disconnects currently 1 hour 25 mins ago.

    no admission to disconnecting, and they accuse your friend of server hoping.

    Agree with everything else, but I didn't accuse munky of disconnecting. Nobody did, I even said that I'd back him up if anybody did accuse him of disconnecting.

    @Above,
    You are the most annoying at the moment. You aren't involved in the incident, and don't know half the info and refuse to even read half the posts (don't use that search feature, read back)

    seriously this Social Gaming Psychotest has certainly riled some collars eh.
    Drama aside its still a team game so is anyone playing atm ? and on mumble?

    maybe branch this thread to a Game and a seperate issues thread.
    I sucks having to read through disputes when you just want to see the game banter.

    You're right, what I meant to say was that it could be interpreted that way by an outsider. Editing.

    So instead of this thread being about DayZ and peoples experience within the game it's just a Boards server specific thread at this stage....

    I was enjoying reading peoples stories and watching videos here. At the moment though it feels like I am in a courtroom!

    Surely there is another forum on boards or another thread in here for the server issue dispute? It would only make sense...

    if you read villains post, hes basically said that thornography, ( or at least who he thinks thornography is in game(anti boards - erection ----dont know if he is or not)) is being banned for a month, and is demanding an apology in order to reduce it to a 1 week ban.

    im not asking for any private info from the server, im asking for the connect and disconnect info, in order to put to rest the accusations of who disconnected, if anyone did. and they wouldnt have to publisht hem publicly, im sure they could ask a mod to confirm.


    the very same speech can be given from the anti boards side.
    i dont play with the anti boards guys, i play with the irish guard lads when i can. but from the arguments ive seen over the last few days,
    its actually the boards(admins and friends of IRE1) that are very immature.

    and i refer you to look at the last argument about the server being locked for "testing" purposes.
    a lot of players stated how not only is that behavious unfair, but against dayz rules, and all villain could state was to go cry to mammy. instead of trying to rationalize his decision to lock a server for testing.
    my main point is to please go their post history also, as they havent exactly represented themselves in a mature fashion.

    I stopped playing on the boards server and have up until now avoided this thread like the plague because both seem to carry so much baggage,baggage that i simply dont need when i log in to have a some enjoyable gaming.

    I know for a fact im not the only one, food for thought for everyone maybe?

    Problem is it takes at least 6 weeks to get an admin to move it to the next part of the process. So looking like 2 months at least before it will be available.

    Edit// sorry for double post didn't mean to do that.

    Totally understand. In the meantime it would be beneficial to have a separate thread for the ongoing dispute imo. Leave this thread for actual talk about in game play.

    Thornography cheated, he got banned. That's how it goes. Him pissing and moaning? Par for the course in online gaming, sadly.

    What the hell are you talking about, no one said anything about locked servers.

    I really don't understand why you're going out of your way to demand things of people who already volunteer their time and energy to give us a fun game.

    Why is your first contribution to this thread purely for drama? DayZ is ****ing great fun. The boards server is very well run, and that's all I need. All the drama in the world won't change that.

    To add to the point here's Hawkeye being as entertaining as ****
