FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Tree farming is when a player plants rows and rows of trees to collect wood from. Too many trees in a small area can cause server lag and lower FPS. We have banned tree farming for this reason. We have also disabled the ability to get seeds from trees but increased the wood you get per tree. You can still find seeds in the trash and various loot.

No, there is no raiding allowed on any of our servers. Not even on PVP. If you find a players base, best just leave it alone. If you enter their base and steal items out of their forge or boxes, our bot will know. We can track every player’s movements, from where they were, what time they were there and what went in and out of their inventory. If you steal or raid, you will 100% be caught and banned from all servers.

7 days to die has issues with memory leaks, and over time these leaks can lead to poor server performance. A reboot every 2 hours keeps everything fresh and gives us more time in between map wipes.

A griefer is a player in a multiplayer video game who deliberately irritates and harasses other players within the game. (trolling) They may use aspects of the game in unintended ways to cause an issue with other players. A griefer derives pleasure primarily or exclusively from the act of annoying other users, and as such is a particular nuisance in online gaming communities. Griefer will be banned very quickly on our servers.

A lot of people ask, “How do I become a mod or admin for Salty Zombies?” Well, there is a process, first of all, we have to notice you. So being a regular, active and helpful member of our community is a good start. Help others, welcome new people into our 7D2D discord, answer questions etc. Every so often, we open up recruitment for community members to apply. So you should apply and if our staff have nothing but good things to say about you then good chance you will get hired.

Mod Recruit – If you get the position, you become a Mod Recruit. This is a 3 months trial period. You will get a couple of special commands you can use to help other players out and open up tickets whenever an issue you can not resolve arises.

Full Mod – If you perform well after the 3 month trial period, you will be invited to become a full mod. You get a few more commands to help you help the players and certain privileges. From there, if you perform well and after many months if not a year as a full mod. You will be promoted to Senior mod, then Admin.

Admin – Being an admin is a tough one to crack because admin means not just being very active, but you have to be very smart. You will have to learn how to use the bot, wipe a server, generate maps, install and edit mods, etc. each one of our admins could single handle run a 7 Days To Die Server by themselves.
