[quote=“Amerika;208158”][quote=“Dox;32789”]This isn’t a name and shame thread, I’m just wondering if whoever is in control of banning people is away or something? We’ve had two hackers running around on Australian servers for the last two weeks who are using aimbots on maximum settings not even trying to hide it, and despite our numerous (probably even hundreds?) reports they just aren’t getting banned.
Like the guy in server right now has nearly 100 hours on Dirty Bomb over the last two weeks. I reported him nearly two weeks ago and nearly everyone in the server reported him at the same time as me yet still nothing to this day? His aimbot is on maximum settings and he’s just insta-snapping to peoples heads non stop hitting headshots with rhino cross map, and when anyone is trying to kick him from the server his hack turns around and tries to kick the person who called the vote instead.
I’ve dealt with aimbots in game before, and usually within 24-48 hours they are banned from the time we report them, but two weeks?[/quote]
I know you can’t post them here but did you happen to get their steam profile information? One of the big things that people tend to forget about F2P gaming is that a lot of cheaters who really want to troll a game will have 20-40 throwaway accounts they use to cheat on. So if you cheat on one account and get banned you can then fire up another account and cheat on it. And since Steam allows you to easily change your in-game name most people simply assume they are on the same account when in reality they have went through many accounts.
Of course then you get people who say, “why don’t you IP ban them”. And to that I say these people know what they are doing and they also know how to quickly/easily change their IP. Many of them will even be using a proxy service. And hardware bans are a joke as that’s EASILY dealt with with either simple OS changes via multiple programs or packet manipulation on the network side.[/quote]
“I know you can’t post them here but did you happen to get their steam profile information?” yes, indeed (Dox and I are talking about the same person), lucky for me my links are still live on the reddit post - https://www.reddit.com/r/Dirtybomb/comments/579kwt/can_you_please_ban_this_tool_its_been_2_weeks_and/
“And since Steam allows you to easily change your in-game name most people simply assume they are on the same account when in reality they have went through many accounts.” - Nope! not in this case, his steam ID is the same from both instances - see the description on the youtube videos for his steam ID.
“Of course then you get people who say, “why don’t you IP ban them”.” - sure there are people who might say this… but what I will say is ‘why don’t you VAC ban them from steam’, sure they can start a new steam account, but they now have to go to hassle of creating a new email address etc… the more hassle you make for these hackers the more likely they will just give up.
One more thing… Why arn’t **** and **** perma banned yet… if you don’t know the two people I am talking about you should… I made a massive deal about them… had 50+ signatures on change.org petition to ban them… they were perma banned - then a week later SOMEONE at Nexon lifted the ban! A: You have either been hacked, B: or have a mole/insider, C: or you just don’t give a f. There is no D : **** was playing yesterday causing grief as per normal.
*EDIT! Since I made that post on here and reddit, the hacker played an additional 9 hours! 78.3 hours from 69.
Every second that guy played made people want to quit the game, a lot of seconds in 78 hours!
