Hi Guys,

Due to recent events I thought it would be good for us to vote on whether or not we think the server should be white listed - could you please all vote and encourage a positive discussion.

A whitelist is usually very negative for the amount of new players. Luckely INT005 has a very active player base, so for the first weeks it will not be a problem at all.
The last week there were way too many cheaters and with them using VPN connections and buying new keys for 2 euro's its almost impossible to keep track of the cheaters and ban them forever.

The other option is to make back ups every 5-15 minutes and do a rollback whenever there is a cheater online. This does require a Admin and they cannot be online 24/7. Also a rollback screws over people in helicopters and boats, which makes players get stuck in very inconveniant places.

For the past week, when I was playing, there were like 2-4 rollbacks a day.. At first I didn't mind, but now its really getting annoying to do the same things over and over again.. losing fights that you won 10 minutes earlier feels so unfair, Finally finding that car wheel you needed.. BAM rollback. Eventually the amount of rollbacks will hit the amount of players on the server even harder.

In my opinion the whitelist is the lesser of two evil in this, it's not ideal, but it's the best option we have.

You don't. But having to apply to a server is a step.. hackers usually go in and out of server and nuke the place. Now its easier to just find some other server to test your hacks on.

Good idea but this is < 20%-50% of new players. Let's try it, but if population falls to <30 I recommend to turn it off. Vote for whitelist anyway ^^

INT005 - main public origins mod server. PUBLIC means no whitelist, free for all.
