NS- 4 #1 Posted October 22, 2013 Why locking the topic before i could even answer again?... I obviously don't claim to have the right to play on your servers, since i am not the owner, not a member of the clan and not even a donor, but just a random player. Though, I'm sorry, but i can't accept being called a hacker, that is extremely disrespectful. I haven't been playing as a sniper for more than 300 hours on 2fort to be called that. Also,I would really love to see a demo that proves that i am aimbotting and that other high skilled snipers saw it too, because i was not hacking and never did in my whole life. My steam ID, which is my only steam ID, is completely clean and was never banned anywhere other than on your servers. And also, i would like to know what is the proof that i am this person called zapp. Just the fact that i was playing on the same server that he was proves that? who has never played with a hacker before? so i was playing with my account, "one of my alts"(=cousin) and as zapp at the same moment on the same server? how does that even make sense? he is probably not even from the same country as me.... (I'm from Brazil, sadly) Even if you wanted to keep you claim that i was aimbotting, by the "proof" being a demo, it doesn't make sense to say that i am this retarded "zapp". Look at his PING in the original topic from 2011, it is 108. Mine and from my cousin that was playing are 240~ (probably a west coast server, should be 150-160 on east cost ones). It is impossible for someone from the place that i live have such a low ping on that server. The lowest you can get on american servers is about 140 from here(choosing the closest server) , not ever 90-100 or below. Some of the inconsistency that you mentioned on demo is completely normal, all demos from players that have a somewhat high ping will display that, but in my screen i always shot the players at the time they appear, and not "a second" later. And... since when predicting shots is something that proves aimbot or wallhack? i don't know what the situations you mentioned are like since a demo was not provided, but that could simply be a predicted shot (which is completely normal to good snipers) or a lag inconsistency. And also, there is a very high chance that "one of my alts"(=cousin) was playing at the same time that I was on this day that an admin saw "me aimbotting", just like 90% of the time that we play. His K/d is bad and he never plays as a sniper nor as any other classes that aimbotting is useful. So my thoughts are that a high skill + high ping combined with a coincidence in the fact that i played with this random hacking loser is what makes you being so sure that i am a hacker. I know that you admins must have to analyse a lot of cases and can't pay particular attention in specific cases such as mine, but I'm just a legit player that is telling the truth... I have already played with a lot of other high skilled players (some are snipers) on those servers, and by those i was never accused of aimbotting. Not sure how that would even make you change your mind, but some that i consider very good players are: Emran(awesome sniper,kills me a lot), Entite, Skylord Chen, Godsped, Ultimate117, pLex, Bleed, hazmat. Absolutely none of these has ever accused me of hacking... The only video of myself, from my perspective and my ping, that i have saved in a video file in this moment is this(not on lotus though): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84E8YPankVk ( I do have some other demos, but they are all lagged and strange now for some reason) Not sure if that helps in anything. Most of the kills are common(a lot of noobs there), but it is just to prove that i am not a random noob player, but actually someone with experience in headshots. Please, consider what i am saying. I wouldn't even waste my time writing all this if i were a stupid hacker, there a lot of servers that i could play with basically no admins around and better ping, but I really liked your servers, exactly because there were always respectful players capable of playing the game correctly and almost no hackers at all...

Skylord_Chen 0 #2 Posted October 22, 2013 I, Skylord_Chen, play against NS a lot and I always enjoy it mainly because he is a GOOD sniper who uses SKILL. It is very clear to me that he is not a hacker and there is no way he can be a hacker. I have played seen NS around for a very long time and I'm sure that if he was a hacker, he would be long gone. I have played on Lotus servers for the majority of my Team Fortress 2 career which is around 900 hours at this point in time. I understand NS's reason for not wanting to leave Lotus as it is one of the best servers I have ever been on. I have seen aimbotters before on servers before and NS is nothing like them. Please allow him another chance. Thank you in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
- Mike - 2,728 #3 Posted October 23, 2013 High ping sniping vs aimbot is still easy to tell. I routinely play on servers with about 150 - 200 ping. I haven't seen the demo, but it is normally easy to spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NS- 4 #4 Posted October 23, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZF-P2j3CcO4 another video that i got if it matters... the demo was all weird for some reason... but on this one i had a very low ping, 40~, brazilian server. nothing amazing, but still, it is just to prove that i'm an actual decent sniper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Se7en 10,762 #5 Posted October 23, 2013 Predict+headshots=hacks. Just wanted to say that. If it's not my place to do so , please delete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nano 7,892 #6 Posted October 23, 2013 I've given this some thought and I'm going to post the demo in the admin lounge for a few more sets of eyes. I'll honor whatever their decision is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NS- 4 #7 Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Aren't there any chances of i getting to see this demo? I could try to explain what i think that happens, if it is either just prediction or some very bad distortion created by the latency, I would probably know. Either way, thanks for reconsidering the case. I know many must come here and lie a lot about their unban requests pretending that nothing happened, but I really am not one of those and this all was just a misunderstood. ~~ i would even "convert" it to a video file to post it on youtube and share on some important sniper forums, if needed.

We're still debating this in the server admins lounge but I think the outcome will be published by a Staff member soon. Hang in there 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
