faith restored in the reporting system.

I submitted a replay about 5 days ago of a VERY well known, high ranked player blatantly cheating in an FFA game. This player owned all the VIPs and has multiple ZP guns.

The day I submitted the replay, said player had the HSR and it has been there up until two days ago. I logged into the game yesterday and asked the player's clan members if they knew what had happened, they informed me that he was banned for cheating. The player has been banned, justice has been served, and I have received evidence (screen shots that I FINALLY received today) to prove it.

The reason why I am making this post is because there is this on going theory that people who spend a ton of money in this game are immune from the report system or that owning VIPs is a get-out-of-jail free card of some sort.

I do not believe any of this to be true, and i just want to publicly announce that some of my faith in z8's ability to do their job has been restored.

EDIT: I have not listed any names due to the publicity of this post. If you want to know more information about who this player is or see the proof for yourself, feel free to message me in game or send me a private message.

  • Z8games has been always working to make the game better and better,Sadly there are people or "crossfire fans" insult instead of supporting the game.

    Time? The GM are humans too , They might need time to report all of those cheaters day by day.
    There are so many changes and i believe the upcoming updates will shine more and more.

    Great Thread.
  • I can prove the opposite. I reported a high ranked cheater with VIPs , who was obviously playing with aimbot on FFA.
    The report is reviewed and this guy is still playing.
  • Thats nice. Keep reporting them. Never lose faith. Just cause some hackers weren't banned, doesn't mean they don't ban anymore. They do still ban them, but sometimes the proof isn't clear enough or they don't have enough time or so.
  • I'm curious on who the player is o:
    Hit me up with a pm xD

    I know a bunch of vip players who got banned.

    I still have profiles of obvious hackers from beginning of ranked season 2 playing daily with still having hsr
    (by obvious, I mean those that were running around under the floor or doing backflips, if you remember)

  • I have never doubted the reporting staff from the beginning. I personally have reported a number of people due to not only cheating purposes but racially remarks and such that I myself and others have found very offensive. I know people can joke around, but there is a fine line between joking and plan out "raging" at someone then calling them offensive names for no reason besides the fact that they are losing to them. I can count on both hands how many people got either temp or permanent bans because of these reports maybe not only mine but others who have reported them . You have to look at it like this if only one person reports someone chances are it won't get resolved immediately but if a large amount of reports are brought to the attention of the staff then something is gonna become apparent to the staff like maybe they should look deeper into this specific person, but if not then they will bring it to the back of the line like the rest because sometimes reports are false and are only there because people are "mad" at someone and hope to get them banned when there is no apparent reason why they should be, but hey that is just my look at it.

    Then I dont understand how can you feel offended by some kid typing nonsence on the internet. I dont report these kind of players neither I ever will. Yesterday I've had a greek player raging at me and some british guy spamming insults in the same room. Couldnt care less.
  • Regarding this situation i wish to have the block command : /b IGN , or /block IGN - and add the IGN to the block player list (not working anymore, i can only remove players from block list but can't add new)

    righ now ignore work: /i IGN - BUT must be on same room , if someone keep insult you on privat and is not in same room you can't use ignore :(

    As far as I know, the only way to actually block someone is to be in the same room with them so you can manually right click on their name to block.
  • Can someone hit me up with some proof that this is actually happening? Im still having doubts since a report from last year hasnt been closed at all.

    They don't always close tickets.
  • I've send tons of hacking reports that weren't answered for years..
  • 2017 is a great year for crossfire. Lets make this game great and bring back all the players that left to go play League of Legends (LoL)
  • For some reason my hacking reports does not have a status i.e. It is neither open or closed. Is it the same for anyone else?

    Yup, that's same for everyone. They got too lazy to click "closed" everytime they "review" a report
  • Like i said keep reporting. ;)
    You have one high rank, i have decades xD
    Keep reporting, spend 5 minutes and do it. ;)
    If you meet him again and he cheat save the replay and report him again. :o
  • I don't know why here in this version is hidden but in some other CF versions is public. :confused:
    Anyway i have my way to track them and see if they are banned or not. xD
    I spend around an hour per day for such things, report cheaters and abusers. :p
