Howdy everyone. Lately, as I'm sure everyone has, I've been having some trouble with hackers. Now, I know that everyone does, and there are ways of fixing this. There are rules in place that are meant to stop the hacker from continuing to , well, hack. These rules aren't working. So, I am going to state the problems in place with the rules of hacking, and the what should be modified in the rules. So, i'll start with the problems.
PROBLEMS WITH DA RULES
1. At least 50% of hackers get away with it. In my last 5 or so games, the same exact thing has happened: I get awesome stuff, whoop 3 people's butts, then get killed by a PAINFULLY OBVIOUS hacker. Except for one game, where I got killed by a mod. (props to ya anster360)
2. People complain too much about hackers. Do you have any idea how many times I or one of my friends has been told the following: "N00B HACKRERRRRRR GOSH U FLIPPIN SUCK EGGS U FLIPPN PANCAKE FLIPPER" Obviously, they didn't say "flippin pancake flipper", but I think you can figure out what they did say. Do I or anyone I play with hack? Nope. Do those trolls care? Nope.
3. Overpowering mods. Yes, I know. Mods are role models for the MCSG community. Whateva. Does that mean they dont occasionally overuse their power? No, it does not. I've gotten banned too many times for them not too. As well as my friends, who all (no offense to them) suck. None of us are even good enough to be hackers. More so, this happens to my more skilled friends, but even so, it needs to be fixed.
4. What looks like a hacker, always isn't. Many people use a certain style of PVP that looks a lot ike hacking. I've seen their screens, and none say Nodus in the top left of it. People need to be careful who they report for hacking.
SOLUTIONS TO DA RULES
Before I start, I would like to say I don't really know the rules of the servers, as far as reporting a hacker goes, so I am sorry if I restate a rule.
1. Encourage recording. Tell everyone to record their games if they can, and send it in or post it on whatever they want to (youtube, twitchtv, whatever floats your boat). And even if you are not recording, lie and say you are to discourage hackers.
2. Make the accusation of hacking illegal in PREGAME CHAT ONLY. If you see someone in the lobby that you thinks hacks, don't say it.I t is annoying, and sounds whiny. In the post game chat, you want to blow off some steam, so you might write something along the lines of: "nice hax bro" or "flippin hackerzzknw". I can't blame you. I even do that sometimes. In pregame chat however, it is just annoying.
3. Take away power to ban for hacking from mods. I said it once and I'll say it again. Role models. Chosen for a reason. Whateva. They are still people, and people make bad decisions some times. They still ban for all other reasons (obviously). What should happen is that at least 2 mods or 1 mod and several players must agree that the player was hacking.
4. There should be a reviewing system, so there must be several people complaining in one match, or a piece of footage that shows CLEAR HACKING.
Anyway, this is something that really bothers me, so it is really important that yoy like, and vote on it. Thank you for reading. Smell ya later!
