I came to this server looking for a home. After following all the steps for the application process to dayzcolony, i was messaged about having too much privacy on my facebook. I was told it was a clear sign that i was a hacker and that i needed to make it more accessible to this server owner or admin, whatever. Finally after compliance I was asked to interview. This person asked me a series of questions , which i answered honestly. I have nothing to hide. When asked if i had been banned on dayz arma 2 mod, I replied with yes. 1 time when the taviana map first came out i was banned for backpack dupe glitch. Anyone knows back in the beginning the mod was buggy and people got banned for stuff that was very non-intentional. I was honest about the situation and this person asked me to teamview my computer for him to prove i could log in and still play. I found this to be intrusive, and after his overbearing efforts with my facebook i simply apologized and told him i would not further my efforts to be whitelisted. His response was that he was going to ban me immediatly. To some this up. the owner of this server who claims quote, " this is not an interview, this is an interrogation" pressured me into facebook invite with "more public" access than i origionally had, twitter following, and now teamview ( remote access to my pc) just to be allowed to play on his server. When i politely said no he banned me. Please take caution with any information this person asks of you. I sense ill intent and will be playing somewhere else where i dont have to give private information.

If you want to get whitelisted you need to have your friends showing as we've had some security issues lately.
Chris Ray
My friends list on Facebook?
Kinda asking a lot for a dayz server white list...
Michelle St Laurent
This is a very big community and when we ban people they like to disrupt our operations.
If you feel this is too much for you I understand. We run a tight ship here and only want our players to have the best experience possible. None of our staff including myself get paid for our services and we take security very seriously.
I'll go ahead and remove you from the project, best of luck in 2016.

When was the last time you were banned by BattlEye?
Chris Ray

accidently duped in taviana
Michelle St Laurent
Banned for what exactly?
Chris Ray
backpack glitch, wasnt intentional
Michelle St Laurent
When was this?
Chris Ray
hmm, years?
Michelle St Laurent
Michelle St Laurent
12,14,14 etc?
it matters
12, 13, 14, etc...
Chris Ray
man, im not sure. it was when taviana was first released
Michelle St Laurent
2012
So you havent played DayZ Mod since correct?
Chris Ray
no no no tongue emoticon
i still played for a long time after that
Michelle St Laurent
Then you must have another account.
Chris Ray
no
i played chenaraus
Michelle St Laurent
BattlEye bans are global
Chris Ray
like i said, it wasnt intentional
yeah i was globally banned from taviana
Michelle St Laurent
BattlEye bans are global meaning, if you have one you cant use that CD Key anymore and have to buy a new game with a new account
Chris Ray
well for me, i was not allowed to play taviana.
Michelle St Laurent
And a ban from 2012 would make DayZ SA not work either
Thats impossible
there is no banning that stops you from playing a map
Its a server ban or a global ban
Chris Ray
well im telling you how i remember it. i was banned from taviana for a backpack dupe glitched that was non-intentional. i was able to play other maps for several hundred hours in the years to follow with 1 steam account that i still use today.
Michelle St Laurent
To remedy this situation/confusion on my end (I know staff at BI so I know how it works) I'll need to TeamView your PC while DayZ mod is started to make sure there isnt a global ban message.
Chris Ray
teamview tongue emoticon
wow
Michelle St Laurent
You said you got a global man
Chris Ray
i mean i get it
Michelle St Laurent
What do you want me to do, just ignore it?
Chris Ray
well i could have said never
Michelle St Laurent
We've never let a hacker in and w/o any way to verify your story its just a story. We get all kinds in here.
Thanks so much for showing interest in our DayZ Colony project. Unfortunately, we don’t allow players with any VAC bans, BattlEye bans, or hacking experience as we believe that once a cheat, always a cheat. We don’t want you to leave empty handed and would like to suggest some other communities!
