its because of that way of thinking that cheaters will allways get away with it.Originally posted by joe2or maybe you're just a paranoid bad player?
just because you say that it doesnt make people think you are so good that dont even notice cheaters.
saying that only means 2 things, or you want to make people think you are awesome (doesnt work), or you are cheating aswell.Comment

Or maybe your just clueless? Either way, who knows.... no seriously, I'm certiainly not paranoid just for thinking that there are hacks out there... to think that DOES prove your clueless... they are there. Second, I'm by no means a bad player... and even with people using hacks against me on occation I still do just fine... well enouph for me to have fun anyways, and THAT'S all that matters anyways....Originally posted by joe2or maybe you're just a paranoid bad player?
Well either that or your a hacker yourself and your trying to cover your butt?
I understand what yoru saying... and your certainly by no means a horrible admin from the sound of it (maybe some of your guys are a bit quick to push the ban button though. :P lol)... but not all admins are like that (actually listening to real complaints about hackers)Originally posted by SkatesThe way myself, and most of my admins handle things like that, is if someone brings up that someone is hacking, the first thing I do is look at the score board. If there is nothing out of the ordinary, I'll check with guys in TS with me and VOIP in my squad to ask if they notice anything strange. If nothing looks off, I will dismiss it. Remember, the only real proof you have is either watching the BR file after the round, time consuming, or alt-tabbing out of the game, logging into the web interface for the server, and finding the PB SS of the player, or taking a PB SS and then waiting a couple of minutes for it to go through and then looking at it. All of that is time consuming and most of us admins would rather be playing.
So, unless something looks really off, you won't get much response from an admin. If you think someone is hacking, whisper to the admin once, don't type it into global chat, and if they decide to pursue it great, if not, then let it go.
I can say that of all the PB SS that I have looked at, I have found 3 that were hacking, not a really productive use of my time. Since we changed server providers a couple months ago we have had a combined 30,992 different players on our 5 servers. Of those, 31 have been busted for hacking, 3 were from SS we submitted to PB and the other 28 were caught by PB on our servers. That turns out to be 0.1% of the players that have been caught hacking. I'm not saying that they were all caught, I'm sure there are ones that have and will continue to get away with it. However, I am not, and most admins won't, leave the round for 5-10 minutes to check on a suspected hack unless there is substantial proof in the game.Comment

And I think the hack users themselves realise this, and that's why they prefer to keep a low profile, well that's my understanding from the posts that I've read on various hack related forums.Originally posted by SkatesAll of that is time consuming and most of us admins would rather be playing.
So, unless something looks really off, you won't get much response from an admin.
When some new member posts about how they recently purchased a hack, and how they're using it to drop infinite supply crates and create non-stop orbital strikes, or even in-game openly flaunt the fact they're using a certain hack, they're usually flamed by the majority of other hack users.Comment

Hack free server? That will be the day! Not that I don't have faith in your admins, but to assume that you've got rid of them all is optimistic. Particularly health boosting hacks, they are bloody hard for scan programs to spot! What about bunnyhoppers, you should have zero tolerance for them!Comment
