I hope I don't derail a semi serious thread, but there are methods to show she's a hacker.

By the way, the newest Oblivion is now out and it fixes the safeclicks thing, so for replays dated after the announcement date, the method doesn't work.
This means we can now use the old method of checking if they click on stuff out of fog of war right? Is there any quick way to do this?
If they click stuff out of the fog of war without safe clicks I think it's supposed to say HACK on bwchart, but I'm assuming they fixed it on Oblivion so it doesn't say hack. Also, now that this method of catching hackers is known, the hackers can easily avoid this by just toggling the maphack on and off when needed and purposely putting "suspicious" clicks in, so it's not really reliable anymore. The method used is only good to catch people who hacked prior to the public announcement.

Our Liquibet number two is a hacker???!?!?!?!???!?
Unless it's a different Kassios, in which case my apologies :p


I'm pretty sure thats the same Kassios.


Here are some more caught, banned, and had all their matches reversed at WGT-CL:

sT-Kassios-
Ervin[5thF]
faculty.Zarrr
nerOz.BoSs
kal.BoSs
Keeper-JoeJim
Keeper-Kakashi (Dino)
Keeper-Tigrou
paniC.rAisY-
gH-Ferdin
rSk.Blaster


These gamers had their name thrown around quite a bit but from what we found, they do not hack: T.SQD)rubz, BW-Space, and xzOz.Rev.


Uhh Kakashi is not Dino lol. Maybe had Dino play games for him, but defintely not Dino

Over the past few days since the now infamous "hackers caught" bombshell, we here at sMi have gone to extensive lengths to look into whether or not one of our own is indeed a hacker. As many of you may know and many more may not, sMi is more than just a team, we are a family. Many of the members have been together for five or more years and when it comes to one of our own being called out we take it as a personal responsibility to find out the truth for ourselves.

The result was a several day long plunge into the BW history of Spades. What we found will not surprise many of you since you took the original announcement at face value and went with it. Spades did indeed hack. It seems that he has been hacking since January of 2008, replays prior to that show he did not hack, at least not with the current method of detection.

We reviewed some 150 replays and using an ordering by timeline method we discovered that prior to late January 2008 Spades had at least 1 click in 94% of the games over 15 minutes that he played. After January 28th those clicks practically dissapeared...strange to say the least. He went from 94% to 20% games with clicks. If you then removed a few games we were able to confirm were played on iCCup or LAN then we were left with 0% of his games after Jan 28th with ANY clicks. Thus confirming that he was using an illegitimate program or hack.

Click here to see all of the stats:+ Show Spoiler +

These are all the games played before 1/28/08... this is how legit players with few clicks should look

These are the games after 1/28/08 - note the sudden change to all 0 click games. Also note the anomaly games.
[image loading]


Here are the fun statistics. Note that I did not add fonger, kawaiirice, or badapples replays to this. They sent me about 25 replays which all fell in the pattern - after 1/28/08 0 clicks, before 1/28/08 mostly had clicks with a few 0 clicks.
[image loading]


Even after all of this evidence, Spades has decided to stick with his story and deny any allegations that he has hacked/used a hack. My guess is that since he's said/used the story so much since the first call out, he can't back down from it now...I guess.

Anyways, as such evidence has shown and as we've said before in another post somewhere, sMi does not and will not tolerate hacking or abusing in any way. We have removed plenty of "good" people from our team for these reasons before and Spades is no exception. Even though Spades played a big part in our CW lineup, we are without a doubt letting him go due to the results of our investigation.

We here at sMi are sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused and for allowing Spades to be a part of our team while taking advantage of the good natured people that run/host leagues.

As long as the maphack is running, be it Off, Lite, or Full/On/whatever the third setting is, it should still eliminate suspicious clicks. Toggling wouldn't make any difference. (With the old version, at least)

Is everyone as SICK of these fucking hackers and their shitty attitudes as I am? I'm tried of them fucking up our games and not taking responsibility for it, like wasting peoples well earned leisure time with drophack is a joke.

If you goto their Discussion forums a person asked them politely why they don't play fare (here). Their responses are "Have you ever played starcraft without hacks? shits boring!", "Quit fucking crying" and "Heaven forbid he takes a (undeserved) loss". No mother fucker, heaven forbid you should have to sit down and learn a GAME to earn a win. Heaven forbid you have respect for yourself and your opponent, heaven forbid you apologize for being a dishonest cheat. Every time hackers get exposed (with proof) they start swearing and counter accusing like a degenerate spazz. After taking it lying down for 3+ years, I want to fuck with their shit now. I have no sympathy for them, lets get dirty .

TL its time to show them shit ain't sweet! We need to fight back. Post ideas!

I was thinking we could get Google to say their site is potentially harmful like those warez sites. They would lose a ton of visitors that way. Its small but its a start!

Also do any supporters live close to...

lol it's pointless even talking to them. They are for hacking, so that's why they disagreed to everything that "Fathom" said.

I'm sorry if I misconstrued what I said, let me clarify. They are bad mannered, selfish liars. I have no intent on politely asking them to cease hacking as we've already seen the result. What I am proposing is we beat them at their own game, and possibly more. What I want is for hackers/the person who creates the hacks to be as inconvenienced as we are when our games get disrupted. I realize some people will think this is a waste of time, but I know I'm not the only one who wants something done about the rampid hacking.

If its not feasible at least we tried. But I think with the amount of talent on TL its completely feasible. We have programmers just like they do. If they can update their hacks in 2 days, why can't we make automatic hacker dropper tool? They're so many ways you can mess with someone when you have 200+ TLers at your disposal at any one time. We own the internet, do we not?

I don't think that you can argue with these people but although hacking sucks, random people hacking in public games is not the problem; the problem is that we don't have a hack free environment to avoid cheating and hacking in clan leagues, tournaments etc.

Maybe we should even give them more spotlight and try to communicate with the programmers more. I mean, people who want to hack will continue anyway and these are also the lame kiddies saying that playing without hack sucks. I vouch Zynastor as the next interviewee for RaGe!

To be honest, I think I'm sympathizing with TT1 right now.

I hate hackers. I wish they'd rot and burn. I've never even used maphacks for Diablo 2, and fucking everyone does. The thing is, TT1 seems to be making an honest effort to reform. Is it too little too late? Probably for most people.

TT1 may be like a criminal with an extensive record trying to reform. But if he's serious about it, he'll have to endure many months of hardship. Still, if people gave Testie a second chance (and yes, the young'en out there might not remember, but Testie was caught multiple different times and then later admitted to having hacked even after he was supposedly clean -- all the way as late as 02), then holding a double standard towards other hackers would be pitiful. I guess it just sucks for TT1 that he has neither the skill nor the charisma of Testie.

Meh, I might get banned for bringing up such old news, but I DON'T mean to use it to breed e-drama. The reason I bring it up is to remind people not to have double standards. It's fine if you say "I'll never forgive any hackers" and it's fine if you say "I'll forgive them if they prove themselves capable of reform." Really, I don't care either way, but it bothers me a bit that people have such double standards.

Do I think TT1 should have been allowed to finish this tourney? No. Why not? The rules said that you can't have hacked within so many months of the tourney. That was an ironclad rule and it was broken. It was right to ban him. I'm not so sure it's right for the community to get all bunched up in the panties when the community has such a history of forgiveness of hackers. That's all.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

TT1 made no effort to reform, he's hacked for years, he's hacked in the last year, and he's hacker in tournaments with prizes. Fuck 'im.
