Minecraft Name: ARMCgamer Suggestion: clear someone's survival game stats(on the forums) if they are caught using a hacked client that in any way affects pvp or survival games or if they are caught cheating the survival game system in anyway, such as using multiple accounts to gain more money and win more games. Also if users manage to do one of these and earn a forum medal for survival games the the medal should be taken away too. Reason: it is unfair these people get to keep their stats while others who don't cheat are stuck behind them on the leader boards. Any Other Information: I think this would be a smart idea and I hope other people agree with me.
Although thats a great idea, I'm a little confused as to who would be able to do that. Only KH and Andrew appear to have control over the survival games boards.
revanrose6 I thought kuke was in charge of the survival game stats, like he was on radthorne. Also the moderators like you could just inform them it needs to be reset or something
I think he means they're high up because they are very successful due to their hax (eg lots of kills/wins). *Edit* This post was aimed at revan.
I don't think it really matters, people caught using hacked clients very infrequently make it onto the leaderboard's top 50 or whatever. To get to the point where the leaderboard actually means something (where you're eligible for a medal) you need to play a lot. I'd say almost certainly 100% of people would be caught before that point.
An extra health/mitigated damage client would be very hard to spot as evidence is very rarely conclusive and the only truly definite way to know is through an admission or a screenshot showing the hack files.
Unfair in a way, I suppose, but again, unless it matters money wise / medal wise / etc then it's really just not worth bothering Andrew with.
nicit6 I just added a new part of the suggestion that should prove the point a little more, for instance at the moment frozenfury7 is banned for doing this in survival games, this may have caused him to get a higher rank on the leaderboards, I believe he is also in the top 100 at least
I have always thought that this would be a very smart idea to implement but as raven stated previously, if only KH or Andrew are able to actually implement the reset I don't think it would be really worth the effort. In some, more serious cases (ie: the user is in the top 25 or first page) then yes I think that wiping their stats would be a deterrent for using hacked clients. However, like nicit also said, most users using hacked clients on a constant basis are almost always caught before they make it anywhere near the top page on the stats.
Again, pretty much the only reason why I disagree is because it's simply not worth bothering Andrew with. If GA's could do it, then I'd agree. It's just too inconsequential of a thing for Andrew to have to change on a regular basis.
Bump... http://ecocitycraft.com/forum/threads/complaint.82406/#post-406406 Last I checked this user was rank 29 on the sg leaderboards, he got there by hacking and I think his stats should be cleared
