# 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](https://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)
