Artsyy 0 #1 Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Yeah, I got banned yesterday and it didn't give me a reason...I've played on these servers for about 2 years now and this is the first time this has ever happened. I don't have any of the console stuff and I don't have a detailed explanation on what happened because I don't know why. EDIT: It says suspected hacker which I assume was auto detected. I restored my PC from a savestate from around 6 months ago so it maybe it thought some outdated Microsoft C++ packages were detected? I have no idea. I don't hack.

Possum 10,776 #4 Posted October 20, 2013 You were auto banned by the server (24/7 Hightower Texas) on the grounds of suspected namechanger hack. This can happen if you change your name a lot in a short space of time. I did look up your chatlog, which happens to contain some rather unsavoury language. Care to explain? http://stats.lotusclan.com/player_histories/chat/31598 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Artsyy 0 #5 Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) If you think I'm the only one then you should totally play on your own servers more. And it doesn't do seem to be a rule nor do you have any censorship plug-ins. So what do you expect? Edited October 20, 2013 by Artsyy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
- Mike - 2,728 #6 Posted October 20, 2013 I'll post my demo of you. You had SMAC eye angles going off and a constant name changer. I'm pretty sure we don't allow name changers though. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B8mUU8RVyYLYQndqWV9QMHZMYjA/edit?usp=sharing quoting for posterity Yeah, I got banned yesterday and it didn't give me a reason...I've played on these servers for about 2 years now and this is the first time this has ever happened.

Artsyy 0 #7 Posted October 20, 2013 I don't know what a name changer is, or the point of it. I'm pretty sure if I were hacking VAC would pick it up long before you guys are, and nobody would know the rules regardless because nobody can find them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyhoots, can you tell me what you were doing then to change your name so fast? Surely you wouldn't mind tell us if it's so innocent as you say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kitten 1,813 #9 Posted October 20, 2013 The demo is very clear. I was also on the server with Mike, by the way, and witnessed the name changing hack and SMAC warnings. The only reason the server banned you is that it was faster than me. Just own up to it. Judging by the time it took you to set up your hacks you're probably new to it. =P 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Artsyy 0 #10 Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) Uhh...okay? If you guys are referring to the name changing it's called a spy, and it can disguise as other people? Also, afk means away from keyboard, assuming by the amount of AFKs in the server I've witnessed from the past 2 years I guess you guys get lots of hackers. It looked like you were switching players...Just because people aren't moving doesn't mean they are hacking. You people are worse then the people actually in the server itself. It's nothing a new account and rejoining cant fix, but I suggest getting better plug-ins and shit...your SMAC is fucked up...

Nano 7,892 #12 Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) lol. just no.Unban denied. EDIT: So I just ran a cross check and your new alt: STEAM_0:1:61249764, that connected today, was banned for ban evasion. Please also note that using an alt to avoid a ban negates any possible chance ever to get unbanned. Edited October 20, 2013 by ProLoser new info 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
