[Get kicked from group on death]

Any of group members have "[" or "]" in their names?

 

I can confirm that it is happening on our server with group members with [] in their name.

Thanks for providing this information. 

[[0.2 Release] Unofficial Epoch Redis Database Manager - Live Map]

Looks good. I'd be interested in testing it out when ready. 

[will the A3 Epoch Server Files feature a Mysql Database?]

I'd be interested in seeing the difference in performance, redis vs mysql.

[[Brand New] ArmA 3 Wasteland Takistan server]

Neat, I've tossed around the idea of running Chernarus, I'll download the AllinArma map pack and check it out.

[ARMA free weekend thoughts.]

No Breaking Point and their protection seems superb. Been there 10 months and encountered maybe 2-3 suspicions of hackers during all that time, none of them confirmed but felt like ESP´s which could just be blind luck from the players I encountered.

 

Whitelistning, the software they are using and good admins goes a long way. They do run a closed ship though and don´t let community´s run servers, which I think is a good thing. Many community´s seem to think everything is ok to get players there in form of unfair perks for donating and by fighting each other to get players by offering more and more. Look past some exploits of some clan´s just to keep them and so on.

 

Wasteland servers have been horrible many times.

 

Don´t play Altis Life so don´t know how it is there.

 

It appears that as server admin, we have to spend more time dealing with people disrupting game play, instead of fostering what we feel is better (mission updates, stat backend, etc). I like the idea of more people coming, but the overhead of the flux on the servers is mind boggling when you start dealing with multiple servers. We use to have 10 servers running at one time, who knows, maybe I might turn them all on again this weekend. 

 

We've seen plenty of 'hackers' come on our servers and cause havoc, it'll never stop but we try to be on TOP (pun intended, heh) of it as much as we can. Sometimes I ask myself what's the point of providing a place for everyone to play, to only spend our time combating people that just don't give a crap? 

 

The answer to that question is because in the end, the community of people we meet and build friendships out ways the hassle... at times.
