Re: How to identify a CHEATER?

Guys, I can't believe that together we can still create justice.
Thanks to rUnThEoN?! for the video analysis, general analysis and overall for the time spent.
Thanks FUBAR for not leaving the cheating asshole unpunished.

Re: How to identify a CHEATER?

Hello team, this is in addition to @Vladimir Putin's above-mentioned post.
.
The question that will follow was likely asked multiple times long ago; however, could the IT guys of E+ work together with @Skullheadq3 to convert his fraud exposure knowledge into specific rules that would be added to E+'s anticheat base ruleset? Subsequently, manually review auto-banned players' appeals for false-positives. Possible Reasoning: too many cheaters, no time to catch 'em all?
.
Lastly regarding "..for me (and hopefully not just me), it's important to understand why someone is suspected of cheating, and what the actual signs are." — although I'm sort of late with this & nobody asked me, I'd like to gently remind the more technical guys out there to respond these kind of questions cautiously going forward as not to disclose too much technical or internal information, which could be eventually used by bad actors.
.
Thanks.

What u lookin' at, bra ? I'm back !

We know the cheaters, they are responsible themselves and blame others.

God help me even though I'm an atheist. Give me the strength not to be toxic.

can't the dev is gone.
generally cheaters cheat due to projecting - they think other people are cheating. this is mainly due to experience and technical issues, imagine playing on a 15" laptop vs a 24" gaming monitor. on the laptop you can just click in the general direction.

*Space Station BF6 The server is new, released as a replacement for Freon BF6. Admin: edy, easy.
This is the only server page on excessiveplus.net where model images are visible.
The engine is ioq3 1.36-web linux-x86_64, which, judging by the part of the name "web", looks like a custom version of ioq3.

As for why cheaters do this, I described this particular cheater in the very first message of this thread, where I tried to convey his attitude toward the game and people through technical details — if I may put it that way, I tried to convey his psychology. He is a rare bastard who, if you accuse him publicly of cheating, may start messing with you in the game — for example, logging in under your name and writing nasty things to others, taking a name like [Player’s Name] MAMA WHORE, and other kinds of crap I won’t list here. People don’t do this only because they are weak. Most often, cheaters are pathetic people seeking recognition, who don’t want to spend time earning it — they want it quickly and cheaply. They also simply enjoy belittling players who actually have some skill, which is what the “haha” from MAESTRO after a victory, for example, is about.

The saddest thing is that this is rotten MAESTRO played and plays on ! ! ! RAIL + HOOK ! ! !, ! = Freon-RAIL-CTF = !, ! ! ! RAIL 1v1 ! ! ! and on other Excessive Plus servers under different names. If he was blocked on ELITE'Z, then other admins do not suspect that mold has appeared on their server.
