Easy Ways to Spot Hackers!

[Electrix]

This is a word system to make knowledge about hackers more known.
If you find a player that you think is hacking, ask yourself the questions below. If you find yourself thinking "yes," then you probably have a hacker!
ALL MUST STOP is the acronym.

Speed and Fly Hackers:​

Air: Do they get incredible air time?
Low: Are the particles underneath their feet nowhere to be seen?
Loud: Do their walking sounds glitch?

KillAura/Forcefield Hackers:​

Movement: Are they not bothering to strafe?
Up: Do they ever look too far up to get a legitimate hit?
Snap: Do they snap their head when they are snuck up on?
Turn: Do they get hits without turning to aim?

No Knockback and Auto-Crit Hackers:​

Strafes: Does strafing occur even after a sword hit?
Throw: Do projectiles (arrows, rod) hit the player without moving them at all?
Overkill: Do they kill players incredibly fast, even with crappy weapons?
Pounce: Do they strafe without jumping yet still get critical hits?

Note: Remember that not all speed hacks will mess up walking noises.
Note: Some maps (cough cough TSG3) have speed effects or speed beacons.
Note: Please know that hacks vary, and not all effects may be noticeable.
Note: Some hackers are good players, even without hacks. Not all KillAura hackers will give up strafing.
Pro Tip:
Some clients have auto-walk/run. This makes some hackers move in a very straight pattern. These cheaters are prone to fire, and they usually suck at dodging arrows.

Remember: ALL MUST STOP!

What you're saying is right, but it still doesn't prove that they are hacking. Sometimes people will jump a little higher (due to lag or bugs) and sometimes people will get hit combos but that doesn't mean they're hacking.

There is already a guide for detecting hacks; click here to see it.

Also, wrong section; should be in community guides section.

My post never said jumping a bit higher due to lag is hacking, nor that a combo is a hack. Trust me, anyone can prove a hacker if the player pays attention.

You may be thinking about lagging players with delayed knockback or macro users. However, if you are lagging, the same rules apply. Unless the spectator that is trying to find a hacker has 999 ping, lag won't look like a hack.

I'm not trying to make a guide to detecting hackers, I'm just trying to simplify it. Also, thank you for showing my the right section, I honestly wasn't sure.

This is a pretty good guide I shows all ways to spot the most common and harder hacks to spot and also a bit more :3 Nice job
