What to look for, when dealing with cheaters.

[g0mer]

Hi, I live in Bangkok, Thailand.

We have many high scoring people on our servers and we all know that score
does not always mean skill. We do not know much about the kinds of cheating that can go on in this game, but it seems like some are cheating.

What can we look for, and what are some easy ways of telling if a player is legit or not?

Any tips or information is greatly appreciated.

Dont kick ppl if you think that they cheat. It's really annoying to get kicked/banned from a server coz the admin is a 12 years old moron who gets owned by you, and since his rank is higher he thinks that i have to cheat to kill him. But ppl inside bulidings should be permabanned.

Btw, any1 knows how to get in that square building coz i really wanna kill ppl who glitch on Karkand. I just plaed on a server where there was like 4-5 ppl INSIDE square bulding on Karkand. I wish i knew how to get in there so i could knife those suckers.

Make sure your server is streaming PBBans:

http://www.pbbans.com/

This will automatically block any players that have a global ban. It automatically catches some hacks and will automatically submit them for global bans. It also allows you to look at screenshots of players desktops so you can look for screenshots like this:

Then you can submit the screens for banning. We have been running ours since April 5th and have gotten 12 hackers globally banned.
