So the other night im playing BGH PHANTOM games with my friend right, just to pass the time. Like always im playing with chaoslauncher and the hack detector plugin enabled and like always there is some idiot using automine. Hackers piss me off so whenever i see this i msg my friend "XXX is hacking lets kill him".

Last night was a particularily active night for hackers and we did this to around 10 of the idiots. I think one of them may have done something to my account...

Well if you google it you'll see mostly D2 players complaining. And there's this:

(8) This account was detected using a third-party program (hack) with one of our games on Battle.net. This account is now permanently banned
Any third-party program that is designed to affect the way the user interacts with Battle.net is considered a hack program. This includes seemingly harmless third-party utilities that work with the game to provide functions that were not included by the game designers. While many of these utilities might not have been created to disrupt the balance of the game, they alter the original design of the program. The detection of any such program by Battle.net may result in the closure of the user's account or even the temporary or permanent banning of the associated CD-Key.

Damn, looks like you're one of the unlucky few who gets an account banned by Blizzard for using Chaos. One of those fuckers must have reported you or something.

Yeah, this happened a lot when I used D2JSP (the site). You got perma-banned for third party programs, I guess it was due to chaos? Not a good sign.

Can't you just make a new id or do they track down your ip address?

isn't that for diablo 2...

anyways, this happened to a lot of my friends a few years ago on d2. there was a huge banning and like all the people who used a maphack (pretty much everyone) got banned. it was hilarious.

It was just the account which was banned. Seems pretty strange but im not complaining.

I should also note that I use Blacklist every now and then so I can ip ban people from pub games. It injects a DLL just like a maphack or something so I would say its more likely that this caused it than chaos.

Either way I really hope that they are cracking down on cheaters even if I get an account locked its totally worth it.

That's because warden has been re-activated about a week ago. Maphackers and the like are getting "LOSS" when they win or play an UMS. This seems to flag the account as being a hacker and bans it. Unfortunatley, Chaoslauncher may have been caught up in this too, I do not know..!
