  1. This isnt really necessary to implement as we have logs to help track down any admins abusing their powers. If you ever feel an admin abused their power, make sure to make a report and provide video evidence if you can. Also try and reach out to either Rogue or Booniehat regarding the situation. Trust me they cant hide their abuse

    I think we should publicize the content of the ban to take action or not to take action. If he takes action, what punishment does he get? If he does not take action, what is the reason. This can prevent the abuse of admin permissions...

    Action Taken does not always mean a ban has been placed. We do not need to justify why a ban was not placed but most of the time we do explain the reason. We also have 3 Senior admins you can reach out to

    also regarding that video, its DH you are fighting and when you exit the ifrit that other ifrit is already flying full speed at you and with chinese players ping you may have still been inside for them. They probably arent aware of what caused you to go flying but you could request comp for the loadout but I personally wouldnt ban the player for that situation

    Why is it that the problem is that you always attribute it to ping, you as the administrator are supposed to pursue the truth, whether it's the ping cause or some reason you are supposed to answer, you are not supposed to be here to say useless things to sheltered players, you as the administrator you have the initiative, but it is not your weapon

    it isnt them using god mode because i would see it

    It depends on the admin you get.  It will always be that way, I get it, but some are willing to unban and others will not lift shit or seem to ignore your appeal until it is almost over anyway.  Although there's not a lot to back this up as a regular player, I FEEL like the problem has gotten worse and I believe that may be why more people are complaining about ban severity ( Not talking about hackers, cuz fuck em ).  I can say that I've been treated fairly for the most part, but man I have seen friends and gangmates fucked over by admins being completely unreasonable.

    With that being said, I do find it rich that some people are advocating for less harsh bans while also being notorious for playing report wars.  The irony is fucking real

    I agree it does depend on which admin you have but it also depends on the type of situation. Where as if you got banned for RDM and the banning admin is busy but you have counter proof, any admin can lift that ban for you. I have done that many times before. But you are right theres small groups that are treated different whether it be playing favorites or keeping them banned for the longest length possible

    The fact that dpi glitching is still a 14 day in 2021 is actually retarded

    Unfortunately I don't make the ban lengths but I personally feel it should be reduced. Especially because sometimes its really just lag being a factor but whenever I handle a DPI report, we have multiple peoples opinions before placing a ban and I know some of the other admins do the same thing.

    , 5. Chill with the bans. The server isn't gonna be full when a good portion of the active players are banned. The admins keep saying "It's not hard to follow the rules. Just don't break them and you won't get banned," but I'm willing to bet that at least 90% of the banned active players got banned for a rule they broke accidently. If someone made a mistake and it isn't persistent, just make them comp the person and it's not a problem. 

     

    I mean when players have a bad history of bans, they won’t learn their lessons. Most bans with rdm, vdm, and cl are usually resolved fairly quickly and lifted with warnings. Then you have players blatantly DPi glitching or vdming others to gain a huge advantage. We cant just slap them on the wrist when they continuously break the same rules. Accidents are one thing but when we receive videos of people purposely hitting someone with a vehicle then getting out to kill them. We have to ban them and let them think about their actions

    I don't understand. Do the old players play the server because they enjoy it, or because they have so much time invested into it? That might be the problem right there. It is impossible to appease the veteran players if they aren't actually interested in playing, no?

    Also, what percentage of the server is veteran players?

    @Mayhem, this also applies to your thought.

    the problem is we will never be able to please everyone. The veteran players enjoy it because they have already established their housing and cash flow to continue fighting cartels, a good portion of the server are veteran players that have been around for quite some time. Mitch made a post about a hypothetical wipe and it received a lot of negative feedback. 

  7. Wiping everyone was brought up several times with the last community meeting and I personally think it would be a good idea. It would drive away a good part of the community especially those who worked countless hours to build what they have now. Some suggested wiping bank and housing inventories only but maintaining those properties.

    You may think “oh he doesnt care if its wiped , hes an admin and can spawn things in”

    while it may be true i could spawn things in, id mainly spawn in events for players to earn starting cash and to not benefit my own game but id still have unlimited supplies.

    I have always found restarting somewhat fun to an extent but at this time mitch said he has no interest in wiping the server.

     

    TLDR: Wiping the server may drive more long term players away from the community and we wouldn’t want that

    I know the limitations of the arma engine first hand, and I seriously doubt someone's idea would be so absurd it wouldn't be possible...unless they had like a replay death cam kinda idea....that's quite impossible.

    write down some ideas or ideas you have heard and bring it to mini mitch and obi

    let them do the coding, I'm sure slick would appreciate that, but I just think it should be run by civilians since it is a civ council. Just my two cents.

    The point is to run your ideas by them to see what can be done and what is not possible to create.

    Pretty sure it worked out cheaper for me without these changes T_T

    I think there needs to be an option to remove upgrades if this goes through

    I like this idea but maybe receive 50% of the value back and need a check for virtual/physical upgrades if those were able to removed as well

    Can we have the option to set up auto-billing every 10 days so it just takes it from our account without having to pay manually everytime?And a phone app for all of this would be nice

    This may be an issue if a player doesnt have the funds to pay it
