Friends

So, couple of rules regarding the giving passwords to friends of Moonies, that as far as I can tell, are not Moonies.
1. They need to be Moonies. They need to get in forum and make their introductions. I don't mind folks coming into game, but, again, this is a COOP server where we are crafting things, and generally, just fooling around with the game, what does it have to offer, making bases, flying helicopters and killing zeds. It is not meant to be a public server because, it will immediately fall into a PvP server where we won't have any choice but to kill any other survivor we see for fear of being killed ourselves.
2. The Moongamers member who provided the password to someone outside of the Moongamers ranks, will take responsibility for their guest's actions. For example, your guest shoots and kills a Moonie to loot the body, not only will the guest be asked to leave, but, you as a Moonie will be responsible for helping the dude who just got killed getting some stuff back. As admins, we can probably get keys back, but, most else will just be lost.
I don't know who Bubbles is, but, I don't recognize the name. I don't see them in teamspeak. We have already had one incident where one our Moonies was not on the same page as the rest, and paid the iron price for it and to my knowledge, has not been back.
Again the point of the COOP server is for Moongamers to play Dayz and NOT have to worry about bandits and such and that aspect of the game. When I want that kind of game, I along with other Moonies will hopefully band together and fight against other unknown single players and groups on the other server. The COOP server is not the server for that environment.
And frankly, I would like the Moongamers members who are giving the passwords to their friends to announce the friends who we may see in game and their names in forum, so we are not surprised by an unknown player in game.
With as much time as several folks have invested into the game already, I am familiar with just about everyone who plays Dayz. Please don't allow a "friend" to come in and ruin it for you.

"DayZ, the post-apocalyptic griefing scenario for douchebags,"
If you're playing DayZ, the ArmA II mod and see a helicopter piloted by two dudes in ghillie suits, stay the fuck away. Do not climb aboard. Because they will then transport you to "Schadenfreude Island," 14 kilometers off shore, where there are no respawn buttons. You'll be stuck there idling until your character finally dies.
I thought the statement fit exactly what I am talking about here.

So, the Moonie said he is a good dude and will vouch for him. Okay, we'll see. I can tell you I am rather uneasy about non Moonies coming into this game with us, as they have nothing to lose by being asses.

Maybe there's a way to incorporate a whitelist thing? Instead of just the password, someone would have to be added to a list of approval in order to connect. It's not like there'd have to be some long-winded initiation process, but even having a simple and well-thought introduction by the Moonie and Moonie's friend would get an add to the whitelist so they can show that they are here to enjoy the game and take the community aspect serious enough.

My only thing is, what happens if say someones friend they invited starts griefing? What is to stop the Moonie from giving that person the new password if we have to change it or getting them on the whitelist under a different name? I don't want to exclude people especially Moonies, but should they still be allowed to play on the PvE server if they only want to mess things up with their friend?
I guess they aren't real moonies if they do that.

If you are the Moonie and your friend that you invite in caused the grief, the friend will be banned. There will be no option for the Moonie to retell the password. Or, when the whitelist is up and running, the player will not be whitelisted and will not be able to play on the server. But, no, if their game is to be a griefer, their game will not be on the PvE Moongamers server.

Which means, for anyone else in that server, I wouldn't trust the rogue player anywhere around me. But that's just me.
