worst clans NA list

1nsomniac

Is there some sort of external website where people keep a running tab of major hacking clans, blatant players, etc.? I think such a list would be beneficial to the clans in this community.

Of course, this inconvenience could all be avoided if hackusations were just allowed on these forums. If someone were hackusated, and most people know that he does hack, then fine. Now the community consensus has been expressed. If that person doesn't hack, then the hackusation thread won't break any ground. The community is able to communicate their opinion of the accused's innocence. Great.

Of course, because Z8 is so fearful of the free market of ideas, I don't think that will ever happen. So... back to the site question. If any legit players want to help me start up a list, then just post here or let me know via VM/PM.

What I might do is create a Google Docs spreadsheet or web page that documents the "worst clans NA." Players whom I trust can VM/PM me to update said page/spreadsheet with new additions. The URL of the page will then be circulated within and amongst those clans who would benefit from consulting such a "blacklist" before they begin a CW. PMs will have to be used, since, again, the free market of ideas is anathema to the people who run these forums. But, eventually, if the blacklist is as useful as I think it would be, then everyone will know about it. Thus, censorship will have been essentially bypassed.

For example, I remember that certain clans used to have "hacking clans" lists on their clan news. Wouldn't it be convenient if we were able to consolidate all of that info in one dedicated page that everyone could easily view?

terrible clans like >names removed< will be giving you names of clans that are legit, trying to say they cheat.

Never heard of any of those clans. I would only take seriously the info I get from people I know and trust.

Z8 would never do this as you said, but imo it would be useful to have something like a "blacklist", it should include european clans too though..

These forums will not be used to promote hate or spawn negativity on other groups/clans/guilds/people/race/country/religion/organization.

...This puts them in a vulnerable position though because a lot of people assume clans hack when their assumption is completely unjustified. They are just lashing out at a visible/public clan.

But just because a player is caught hacking does not mean that the entire clan is hacking. We don't disband or close down entire clans because one person is caught breaking the rules.

Give the clans the respect they deserve, just because a player is stupid and breaks the rules may not mean that the entire clan is following suit.
