    So, I log on to WarZ 7 today after not having played the game seriously for about 3 months.

    Well, it turns out I have stuff at east airfield, and I soon find a compass, with someone on it.

    I rush over to him, and since I have really bad stuff, and only really an uzi, I have to spray him to death (The rest of the stuff in the screenshot I got from him)

    The following occurred:

    So, I join WarZ AFTER 3 MONTHS and my first kill I get a DDoS Threat.


    Congratulations WarZ, you officially have a (for the most part) terrible community.

    Words can not describe the chatroom and I'm not just referring to the conversation between Luke and king.

    I really despise these threads.

    Nothing is done from making these kind of threads - we know the WarZ community is not the best, it doesn't mean that you have to make countless amounts of threads to justify that reason. It makes the forums community look bad, and is just plain out pointless.

    The fact that I come back from a 3 month hiatus from McWarZ, and the first kill I get results in a DDoS threat doesn't mean anything to you? That's not really something that will attract new players to your server, now will it? I suggest instead of saying this is pointless, realize how common things like this are and hire more mods to monitor the server. I thought WarZ had improved since I left, but I guess not. The funny thing is, instead of saying "Oh this guy quit WarZ, but he decides to come back on after 3 months of not playing because he remembered how fun the game was, and he gets a DDoS threat as soon as he kills someone. That's not good, maybe we should hire mods to fix this problem", you say "Ugh, another problem? I'll just say that this is pointless."

    Not the most effective form of staffing your servers if you ask me bro.

    I agree, making this pointless threads won't help the community. Even though I know that the server is quite full of those people who DDOS.

    I really should be backing up the staff, but he brings up a ton of valid points here.
    I rarely play WarZ, but last week I decided to log in for the first time in awhile, and I picked up an enemy on my compass right away. It was a generally easy fight, he was only in iron with tier III weapons. I killed him and the first thing he puts in chat is, "FP recorded skid get banned."
    It's been said many times in the past that WarZ mods need more perms, and I strongly agree. What we really need though is a whole lot of WarZ staff members to moderate every server.

    And please, PLEASE, do not turn this into a flame war.

    No, it won't. But embracing it even more publicly even more does not make it any better.

    Well, for one any kind of indication of DDoS threats that he has made was through a private message and as you know moderators cannot view private messages. Not to mention you cannot say that it is common considering this is your FIRST time playing in a while. Throughout the last 6 months that I've been playing this server, I RARELY ever run into DDoS threats on the server.

    I never said it isn't an issue, we are fully aware of how big of an issue DDoS is in the community, but the sad part is, is that there isn't too much we can do about it.

    I'm just going to make a point, but players are less likely to threaten staff members than normal members.

    Reason I bring up this point is because reported DDoS threats are only accepted if a staff member reports them.

    Actually, it will. Maybe making a public announcement saying "Any player caught in the act of threatening to DDoS a fellow player will be permanently banned with no opportunity to purchase an unban. In addition, if any player is caught accusing another player of hacks they will be banned for 7 days with no possible appeal if and only if the player cannot prove that they were joking with another player, and a bystander reported the messages." That would clean up the community a bit, now wouldn't it?


    Actually, if you looked in the screenshots, they were said in public at first, can't a moderator view that? I think so. Also, the reason you rarely see DDoS threat is BECAUSE you are staff, as F1r3tar said. If you hired more mods, wouldn't that mean less DDoS threats would be seen? Isn't that what we're going for?


    Maybe instead of doing what you did which is simply label this thread as pointless, sit down with your fellow staff and think of an idea. My ideas didn't even take 30 seconds to create, and I don't see any problems with them.

    Do you realize how strict these rules are? I'm pretty sure almost everyone has made atleast ONE hackusation during their time here at brawl, joking or not. We have rules set in place to mute players if they make hackusations, disrespect, etc.

    If your belief is that we need more staff, there is no reason to create this kind of thread - you can simply just PM a staff member (admin) with your reasoning. Hence another reason why it is pointless to make this kind of thread. We are always looking for WarZ staff, but it's hard to find the right people that can take on this position. It's always good to have more WarZ mods, but not when they aren't the best choice for that position. Not to mention, judging to how this thread was written it looks like you are just bashing on the warz community rather than trying to say that more staff is needed.

    It's difficult to come up with a way to stop DDoS threats, we ban people who make them and that should be enough. Imposing more people into the moderator position is not the way to go just because of the fact that it's hard to find the perfect warz staff member. You should also try to be more positive and try to suggest some ideas rather than just flaming the WarZ community.
