DayZ Staff member goes rogue to spawn a trading post, essentially lies about it, then admits to it in a fit of rage

Source thread on the forums of DayZMod.com

Reddit thread where this was uncovered

DayZ Staff member Dizzymagoo, server owner of Colorado 1, 2, and 3, was caught by intrepid detectives danile666 and mmetully coordinating the unauthorized addition of a trading post by injecting non-spawnable items into Colorado 1. By Dizzymagoo's own admission this test was not sanctioned by the rest of the DayZ staff and was essentially against the rules.

Quick edit: the items which were injected into the server were not weapons or other items which any of us would want. Dizzymagoo stated that the items spawned into the server were only those necessary to build the trading post itself, such as barbed wire, razor wire, and perhaps a single small structure (I'll try to confirm that last item when the forums come back online). Dizzymagoo also said that the items which were actually traded at the post were gathered using conventional means during a period of time leading up to when the trading post was created.

Full disclosure: I posted in the DayZMod.com thread. I believe it's important that the community is aware of potential abuse cases involving DayZ staff.
