DayZ Ban Help

Information about Bans, Servers, and Tools Used


Server Bans

  • Server bans are not related to game bans.

  • If banned on one community server, you can still play on others, including official servers.

  • Some servers share ban lists. For example:

    • If banned on Rearmed, you may get banned on Kryptic, since Kryptic uses Rearmed's ban list.


CFF Tools

CFF Tools is a paid admin tool (cftools.com) that collects extensive player data on community servers. Data collected includes:

  • Hit count and % in each bone

  • Kill/death ratio (KD)

  • Hours played

  • All nicknames used

  • Alternate accounts

Admins can also share ban data, including community-wide ban lists.


Custom PBOs

Some servers implement custom PBOs (e.g. Server Side Anti-cheat). These tools track:

Logs

  • Kill Logs: Killer, victim, distance, weapon, positions

  • Item Logs: Grabs, usage, drops, storage

  • Interaction Logs: Looting, shooting, damage dealt/taken

  • Playtime Logs: Login/logout times, disconnect reasons

Detections

  • Position Detection: Detects teleport/speed cheats via velocity

  • Magic Bullets Detection: Suspicious kills with low-caliber bullets from long range

  • No Recoil Detection: Unnatural aim angles

  • Tracer Drawing: Bullet trajectory tracing (live and logged)

  • Dupe Detection: Item ID duplicates; warns on stash-before-restart behaviors

Tracking

  • MAC address logs

  • IP range logs

  • File trace logs (Steam, DayZ settings, temp folders)

  • Geo-location tracking


How to Avoid Bans

Cheat Features to Avoid

  • Speed Hack: Detected by anti-cheat bots

  • Magic Bullets/Silent/Murder Mode: Easy to catch

  • Change Day Time: Can look suspicious to admins spectating

  • No Recoil: Affects aiming behavior

  • Free Cam/No Clip: Leaves detectable "items"

  • Teleport: Often detected by server-side tools

Legit-looking Behavior Tips

  • Discord: Use separate accounts for cheat and legit servers

  • Looting: Don’t run straight to stashes—act natural

  • ESP: Don’t move your view directly toward enemies

  • Game Sense: Avoid obviously tracking players

  • Account: Use aged accounts with real playtime, not idle hours

Tip: You can buy CFF Tools to check your own stats—but never tell an admin.


Evade Server Bans

Getting banned on a community server can lead to being chain-banned elsewhere. Here's how to avoid detection:

Steps

  1. Delete Traces: Use Revo Uninstaller or reset Windows via USB (preferred)

  2. Spoof IP: If dynamic IP doesn’t work, use a private proxy

  3. Nickname: Double-check launchers for name changes

  4. New Account: Must be aged with real hours (check G2G or LoLZ)

Alt Tip: Join a server with a VPN. Even if you get kicked, your account links with 500+ others—confusing admins.


Things That Can Be Tracked

  • IP

  • Game nickname

  • Steam name

  • MAC address

  • IP range

  • Geo-location

  • File traces (%temp%, appdata, Steam userdata)
