Map Hack?
« on: January 29, 2015, 11:59:23 PM »
I sometimes go to the SS page to check them out.  Take a look at this one:

Description: Insomnia
Posted by: Warbandit



The gold mine at 3 shows up when it was never scouted.  Pretty sure that is a sign that a map hack was on, and then turned off.  Also, the SS obviously was not taken immediately, otherwise you would see Insomnia asking for a SS.  There was a delay between the SS being asked for, and it being taken.

Definitely, looks like a map hack...
And Warbandit looks like someone's good-masked smurf. I still didn't catch it...

Good job, Mad-Luster77, such SS checks are quite useful, even if not to catch him how, we collect some kind of information we can use for future.

i already talked with him a while ago. im keeping a close eye on him. he admitted to hacking and i lightened his first offense in exchange for information.

if anyone ever plays him and suspects hacking, please SS request him and notify me if he does not post SS immediately after the game.

its by RULES, hacker gets banned.

you don't get to change the rules and not even say the reason for not banning.

first time caught hacking is 1 week ban. wether its a noob, asian, jew, mennonite or barak obama's daughter makes no difference.

and your opinion's validity on this subject is void, non-existant, null. since you don't play the game.

i personally feel like it would be more beneficial to get information such as 1) where he got the hacks. 2) who else has them 3) how is he making them work (since it was a "working" toggle hack that just didnt toggle the gold mines) etc etc and cut some sort of deal (reduced "sentence") in exchange for information that might help us prevent people hacking in the future.

people are more willing to cooperate if you're willing to work with them. my goal is to try to get to the root of the problem and be a little pro-active, rather than re-active and just go on an endless cycle of banning only so they can dive into the world of proxies and turn into future dellams who are hell bent on an endless cycle of hacking/dodging IP bans.

ive been keeping an eye on him as well.. (see ss.war2.ru). i smurfed as beginnersluck and waited until i saw something suspicious and ss requested. any evidence of him hacking again will result in a long-term ban.

fair enough.

still wanna know one thing

reveal akas? any other active akas he's been using?

that i think is a fair request.

hes not getting banned, at least need to know if hes smurfer so I can detect his activity, me being a standard mundane player without admin powers.

Lol at the thought of obamas daughter playing warcraft 2 and being shown the ropes by obama himself
