Consequences of cheating

[Tnova]

I'm glad people care enough to get angry and i certainly welcome people expressing their frustrations. Few sets back this was a hot topic for the Dev. team with the Admins and Dev team worked up a good workable punishment. A lot of the things aren't spelled out in the public forum because the more the enemy knows, the better they can go about their business.


I think i speak for everyone, as a staff member, when I say we are open to suggestions and are always looking for ways to improve.

The irony of this is the fact that cheaters make legitimate players, which the
community needs so desperately - quit, whilst they themselves are allowed to
remain in the community.

What I meant by that was, if something other than a ban would deter them from cheating then we use that measure first not just jump straight to banning the person. If it was a one time thing, or an accident, I would hate to lose a member because of it. Now like I said, if its a constant cheater then yes I feel a ban should be issued.

I know you all are getting tired of the suiciders, i am too... If you look back, i have made several posts on suggestions that we could do as a quick fix for this problem, but each one was voted out. The majority of the members didn't want admins to intervene. At this time, there is nothing else we can do.

Every set i take this whole situation very seriously and i am constantly nagging people with ideas, or for them to help come up with some. We are making progress, just not as fast as you would like. This is not a easy task to deal with, and we have to make sure we take our time.

I will not and can't go into any details on how we do things now. I have added a lot of new ways to catch cheaters, which is why each set there are always some listed Some people feel the need to keep testing and pushing.


The very first thing we need to address and agree on is the definition of what a suicider is. Once we have that, then we have a starting point. Once we have that, then suiciding will be against the rules.. And once it's against the rules, then we can start a proper punishment system.

It's a step by step process.. But please know, we are working on it and it is not something we just turn the other cheek to when it happens.

how about label there states as cheaters for three sets like in forum

[Dogma]

if it from that uni, ban their IP, something has to be done
I don't care if we lose one or 2 innocents players as it is rampant in the nation they are in,they can't be that stupid to know that it isn't going on, Knowing about cheating and not reporting it is just as guilty as cheating themselves.


LOR CHEATS! set after set after set, why is that so hard to figure out? They talk a good game but it is all bull crap, they have no intention of changing so why would anyone believe them. They say they want to "be good members" but then every set they have most of the cheaters declared in THEIR nation, yeah that shows change.


I am about fed up with the whole **** thing.

What if instead of banning cheaters...

We leave them their account... But if it is someone that has done it before....

Give them a penalty.

Like say a person is caught cheating... and u know the person desrves a penalty... but u can not ban them, cuz they can just make a new account...

This account could:

A) Not be allowed to use war attacks (At all) for X amount of sets.

B) Get a 1% penalty (give or take) on all market sales and purchases.

C) Not be allowed to use Global events to search for grabs.



Maybe this is a bad idea... im just throwing it out there...
