Arcade Cheating

I'm sure you have all noticed the blatant cheater in the arcade...

This guy (http://www.gamerenders.com/forum/index.php?showuser=79271)

And his Arcade profile (http://www.gamerenders.com/forum/index.php?autocom=arcade&p=arcadeprofile&userid=79271)

Look at all his ridiculous high scores, he's only played an hour of games in total and he's racked up all that!! It's literally impossible and hes an obvious cheat. It makes me and probably a lot of other members not want to even play in there as he has all the high scores, rendering competition pointless.

It's not just him doing it as well, if you look at the high scores for most games you can see the absurd scores at the top. Most average people get into the thousands/hundred thousands where as these cheaters are in the millions.

Can you not fix this? It's obviously a breach of the rules.

 

so is this guy.

flaxor just added 1 more point to all games he had 1st place in

 

Yeah, it may be hard to stop as bugs pop up all the time but all you need to do is ban the cheaters as soon as they are caught/reported and eventually they'll stop coming back.

Something needs to be done...

 

Yeah, this is why I don't play in the arcade anymore.

 

It bugs me too actually. Regular members just can't enjoy the game anymore like this.
Easy to fix though, the admin(s) go into the Acp and delete those scores from that player or players.

And this actually deserves a ban as well since he is cheating.

 

Yes indeed, I believe strict rules should be added to the general rules stating any cheating in the arcade will result in a perm ban. That should stop most of them, if not all. Then once all the cheated scores are cleaned up members will be able to start enjoying the arcade once again.

 

A reset of all scores, not just high, would be nice.

 

I seriously can't count the number of times this has happened. Just as fast as it's fixed it'll happen again.

 

Thats unfortnuate but if you don't set some strict rules then you haven't really tried. You could however set a restriction so that nobody under a certain post count can enter. This will stop the new members from cheating.

 

Anyone who did this was usually banned (I know I banned anyone who did this) but people come back with alternate accounts or other people just do it. It's why this isn't fixed right away and it must get annoying to reset their scores all the time.

 

That's why if it's possible, only let people wit 30/50+ posts enter. To stop all the new accounts cheating instantly. I think we could flush out the cheaters.

 

No, no you wouldn't.

Sorry but it's always going to happen.

 

I suppose so however I'm sure writing up stricter rules on the matter could make a little difference and would also be the motive to punish the cheaters hard.

 

Guys, it's an arcade. Unless there was some prize for being 1st, who really cares?
Just my input..

 

That's obviously an opinion, so as you have no feeling toward the matter I won't answer it.
