Inaccessable tentbase?!

[AlbiTheReal]

Hello,

one question before we get accused of glitching. We have rowed a line of tents around a house. Its like a little castle made of tents. You cant get in from outside. Theres always a player inside or logged out there which have to pack one tent in order to let somebody in. Is our little safe tentbase allowed or not?

i think an inaccessable area while always using one account to open it is less legit play than an player glitching in an area which naturally would be accessable.

Greetings again,

You will not be banned for this, neither will players "finding a way" into your base. Just my two cents.

People already found a way into the base by glitching through the tentwall. My question is now, should I put any effort into camping there and waiting for the glitcher in order to get his name or doesnt it matter because the tentbase itself already counts as a glitch. In that case we would just open it for everyone.

i think the answer of honeyiscool answers all your questions.

Server rule #1 can be applied here: no glitching.

It gives you an unfair advantage over other players. I therefore ask you from refrain from exploiting this glitch. Thank you for your understanding.

But the question is here... is it fair to have someone with an aditional account to open the tents? Is it pay to win? Is it a way to hide duped gear which would never been found out if someone is not pushed by a zombie trough the wall? Is it glitching if a zombie follows you from the last town and hits you close to the tent wall so that you get pushed trough the wall?

In my personal opinion it is not a glitch.

One tent is removed, so, no more inaccessable base

I got your point and I agree, especially with the logged character it gives you an advantage. We just thought it could be some kind of 'dummie basebuilding' as we are all hyped and waiting for the basebulding feature.

But to be honest, whats not okay in my opinion are the guys who glitched into the tentbase, lived from the stuff and did not tell it to an admin. Its the same as following a bankrobber and not telling it to the police in hope to get some piece of the cake as well. And the behaviour of honeyiscool and his friends on the airfield (glitching through tents as it was their daily business) gives me a bad feeling in this situation. So, in my opinion using a glitch because anyone else used a glitch before is not legit as well...

I understand the demand for basebuilding and that some people get creative. However it is an abuse of the collision system of the tents and therefore a glitch. It is always a difficult thing deciding the severity of a glitch -- but I use the following rule of thumb when deciding: DayZ is kinda simulation, so is a certain thing possible in the real world? Blocking ways with tents is to make things inaccessible would not be possible. At the same time I have no problems with the apple glitch because it could be considered shaking the trees so that apples fall down.
