If you are not helping to fix the problem I don't need your comments. Second, this is the software he used AFAIK: http://www.pgware.com/products/gamegain/ This software is known to increase frame rates. If that is consider hacking, then it should be clearly stated in the server introduction page that said "Speed optimization software are prohibited on all LotusClan.com servers!".

Yes speechacking is prohibited (amongst other things). And that id has also been banned on at least one other server that we share hacker bans with (the admin is my friend). I talked with him and and from his logs he banned you on his server personally due to hacking and I banned that id after multiple complaints and a demo. We're not going to unban hackers. Even if your cat was the one who hacked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if your cat was the one who hacked. First of all we don't know that using frame rate increasing software is called hacking. It is commonly used to counter against laggers. At least that deserve a warning and a temporary ban not a permanent ban. I am not sure when the virus get infected on the DHCP server, chances are a lot of match were being played while infected, and that is probably when the hacking take places. If that is the case, as I said the machine has already been clean up, and the GameGain software is also gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he should be unbanned for the benefit of the doubt, especially since the situation is alleviated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silvio 0 #9 Posted October 5, 2008 Sounds like this guy registered again on the site to support himself^.Even if it was a different person and that was their first post and they joined right before posting...how would they know how much people come on the forum to appeal bans?

Camail 1 #10 Posted October 5, 2008 So being banned for hacks on another server gave you no indication that it would be considered a hack. Your story has more holes then it has excuses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And You got banned of other servers for it too. A speechack is a speedhack regardless of whatever you want to call it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
