We should also include that this auto-detection and auto-discipline process holds no reservations on the type of user. Whether the user is the highest level, or has the most ZP items. Or is an alternate account, or whatever the case may be. If you break our rules, action will be taken against you.
The discipline process will also remain private. Mostly because over time this process will change. We will be starting with a set 'period of time' ban for the account. As we move forward repeat accounts will be met with harsher punishment. We can also tell you that this first step is going to affect a lot of people. Which is disappointing for us, but necessary to make sure that everyone who hacks this game understands that we can detect it, and take action against you. We take this situation very seriously and are not stopping until we're satisfied.
So we expect speed hackers,Chams,1ShotKill,no-reload,wall hacks to get a PERIOD OF TIME banned? really? So you give more chances than before and now you setting up a month ban for hackers rather than a perm-ban?
What a joke, I'm 100% sure that the f4ggets hacking had choose to do it, why give them more chances, Perm-ban/IP ban them. Talking about a great improvement vs the hackers and you end up with a "TEMP BAN" action? ROFLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, fail update if thats how its going to work. Saidin you can do better than this...you give 10 chances to each dam hacker with Zp, why don't you take those chances out so we can see a clean game faster. -

The chance is for the hope that they STOP hacking after they realise they are being watched. You may as well give them a chance the stop doing what theyre doing and continue to play the game legitly than to completely remove them all together. -
Yeah.
Anyway, I'm a bit scared of the non legits bans.
My leader got banned for hacking kinda 1 month ago'. He first got his acc' blocked, after permanently banned.
He didn't damn even hacked.
He finally got back his account after discussions etc' with the support (or something like that).
In my clan, almost all of us are calleds "hackers" and we get kickeds lot and lot of times (20+ times for 2-3 hours happens pretty often).
Then I'm scared to be banned for nothing, cuz I never used, I usent and I'll never using hack on Cross Fire. I also spent $200+ for ZPs and I'll not be stupid enough for losing my acc' (I like it, no were only with $$$) for "lolplaying" (if I can say "playing" . .). On my main or others accs of course.
Eh', I mean, I'm just scared of non legits bans, cuz sometimes I play like a bot, or with my headphones in GM when I kill ghosts it looks as I was using wallhack. Then it's scary to playing pro' and think about the guys that says they're reporting me can make me ban cuz it looks as I was hacking.
Well, you understood me. Or not, but a bit. Maybe.
Sorry for my english. -

dont wory if you dont hak you will not get baned ......... -
I'm deeply disgusted by the amount of hackers ingame right now. It seems that the Katana patch has opened a Pandora's box exploit which is being taken advantage by some hacker and spreading the hacks across the Internet. Why has it taken a month for a thread such as this one to be made? Are you a serious company?
What makes it worse is that these hackers have Stars and ZP guns. You hear that Z8? They are giving you money and then blatantly hacking in your game. Is that why you only want to issue temporary bans? I and thousands of other legit gamers have given you a bundle of money to manage servers and forums, get updates from the developers and implement them, etc. Is CF China or Vietnam suffering from the same amount of hackers?
I am slowly losing faith in this game. At least I have a PS3. -
firefox , i got that error once too , and i don`t hack so yea i believe you ,1 thing that could be triggering x-trap is something in the background that loaded while playing ,maybe you have a scheduled task starting that u wernt aware of, check your proceeses right after this happens and see what just started running , you can check this info in admin tools ,event veiwer also

Plz Gm make something !dont wory if you dont hak you will not get baned .........
are you sure ? then why they blocked my acc for 1 week? .! yes****ay they blocked me from 10/4/2010 to 10/11/2010 today i look and O_O WTF !!! ts already 10/5/2010 to 10/12/2010 where is the legalisity ? OMG this auto ban is **** ! cuz many of ppl who dont play with hacks they get banned. ! (like me ) ..I know its good cuz a lot of hakers like damn speeders get bann , But ! a lot of ppl .inocent ppl get ban !! With this unfair ban i'v lost my all exp+ and if tomorrow will apear that i m blocked for 1 week too then FTw Q_Q !!!!!!!i cant leave without CF!!!!! Dont block inoscent ppl ! >>> (_) -
Ftw!!!!!!!!!!!!!firefox , i got that error once too , and i don`t hack so yea i believe you ,1 thing that could be triggering x-trap is something in the background that loaded while playing ,maybe you have a scheduled task starting that u wernt aware of, check your proceeses right after this happens and see what just started running , you can check this info in admin tools ,event veiwer also
ehehe man its write clear >>your acount is block .!! and the info .. when i start cf and want to put pass >>you cant acces this game or server ( i dont remember) -
Saidin first ,i need to applogize about my most recent rant about hackers, a friend told me about this new system discused here but he forgot where this thread was and i just found it.
This sound great , i hope you are able to perfect it soon, this also answers to the suggestion of putting anonymous GM`s in the game to catch them red handed, this is encoraging enough to start sending reports again ,to help , does this kick them from the rooms automaticaly , cause a have notice a couple of players dcing differently than before.If it is woot woot , now i won`t get shot tryn to start kick votes , that realy rubs me the wrong way i`ll tell ya.
So hope it works .
a hacker killer bot , gota luv it Hahahahahahahaaaaaa. -
i hope it that going to work....actually is impossible to play a game without a hacker...
I'm not going to play anymore if that's continue in this way...... It was 2 month now that i'm not putting money in this game because I'm thinking this game is going to die, and i was a good client , may be not the best, but a regular one.....
And I'm not going to put a other dollar in this game until the hacker problem was resolve in his main majority (i'm understand that he can't be 100% without hack) and I'm working actually for all people i know who's playing this game , that don't any money too for thing change.
Now it's time for Z8 game to prove that they make a good fair game not just a commercial trap for abusing gamer. -
maybe some1 said and/or asked this already (daont wanna read everything in this thred), but can it be that NOT hack.ing players are banned too?
bcus my friend ELiTE_SuuCK (IGN) was baned for "Hack", but he didnt hack ever.
And i trust him becaus i know him too so i dont think he hack.s.
maybe there are more guys with this problem... -

yes i got a friend too who was banned and he never hack....so Iwas thinking that Z8 prefer banned people who not put any money in her hacking game, instead of trully hacker!!!
It a shame to see of much money Z8 earn for not spending some of it in War against crime...Because more they say they do something about hack, more hacker they are....
It's that freaky,not?? -

Another typical forumer thinking it's cool to hate on BRs. Do you think it will get you accepted by the pathetic community around here?
The solution to poverty is not nuking Africa. The solution to cheating is not nuking Brazil.
I dont hate BRs get that right i hate hackers. and the majority that i have seen are BRs. if you noticed i suguested many options. and btw the soution to invading japan was not one but TWO NUKES! know your history. As for the BRs about 45-85% of them that i run into on a daily basist were ether hackers when hacks were and still are a problem or they would say I lag with 60 ping and them with 200+ ping and start to cuss in brazilan bypassing the swear filters even in english to make sure i got the point. And, NO I don't think its nice to beat up on people but are you even in touch with the community you think is "pathetic"? I beleave it is YOU that think you are wrong by thinking "this guy is trying to be accepted" and no im not trying to be because I already have a place unlike yourself trying to bash people and bashing something you are trying to be a part of is NOT the way to act. from what you are saying is that everyone, GM's, Mod's, players, fourmers, z8games, and anyone and everyone to be involved with Crossfire is "pathetic"! you sir have some nerve pull that here!
I just hope that you are smarter next time and do not insult a community on there own fourms! -
It should be mentioned that we have no control over compromised accounts.
If your account, or your friends or someone you know has had multiple people playing on the account, it could be very likely that those other people broke the rules by using this malicious software on the account.
If that was the case then the account could get flagged and action will be taken against it.
This is just another indication that people shouldn't give away their passwords, try to get free zp from people, share accounts or generally all the other problems that happen with lost or stolen accounts.
It's unfortunate, but we take no responsibility for the security of your account. If it was compromised, someone hacked on it and you got banned there is nothing we can do for you. -

Only hackers are banned. If your friend got banned but you don't think he hacked, he most likely hacked when you weren't watching. -

Z8Games has once again taken strides to improve the game and keep the people breaking our rules to a minimum.
First X-Trap has been patching numerous times. These patches for x-trap are working on some of the issues our players have been experiencing. XP64 should load the game fine at this point. And we are working with xtrap to find a solution to the mouse issues that some of our gamers are experiencing.
However this is not all we are doing. Today, we will be starting an automated detection and discipline process within our game. We have done this once before however there were holes and problems with the way we approached it. We needed more time and more technology to make this new process happen.
Unfortunately we can not go into full disclosure on what we are detecting. This would give an advantage to the hackers themselves. However we ask for your trust and understanding that we are able to detect a multitude of malicious software programs that are being used in the game. But in the interest of complete disclosure and to stop the frustration, this process is not going to stop every malicious program 100% of the time. So please don't run around and make a bunch of threads with "there's still a hacker in the game". This process is ongoing and always evolving. So lets keep that in mind before the raging ensues.
We should also include that this auto-detection and auto-discipline process holds no reservations on the type of user. Whether the user is the highest level, or has the most ZP items. Or is an alternate account, or whatever the case may be. If you break our rules, action will be taken against you.
The discipline process will also remain private. Mostly because over time this process will change. We will be starting with a set 'period of time' ban for the account. As we move forward repeat accounts will be met with harsher punishment. We can also tell you that this first step is going to affect a lot of people. Which is disappointing for us, but necessary to make sure that everyone who hacks this game understands that we can detect it, and take action against you. We take this situation very seriously and are not stopping until we're satisfied.
We log every action that happens on a players accounts. So repeat offenders are just as easy for us to find as the hacks themselves. So you have been warned (again).
This process is also happening in addition to our regular hack checking and banning process.
We understand that to some, the punishment may seem like we aren't doing enough to people breaking the rules. To respond to that, Z8Games would like to make everyone aware that we are working with the tools we have to create this automated process. We want to change the mentality of the people hacking in our game. To one where if you hack you can't get away with it. And as mentioned, over time, the process will change and modify as it gets better, less hackers appear and the game cleans itself up.
We hope that you see the work that we're doing and that this next major step taken will help turn the game into a much more enjoyable place to play. -
I have reported 2 speed hackers in 1 game today..
Will they be banned for 35 days (1 month) or permanent?
They get flagged and they let it go hopping he learn and quit hacking, its so they don't lose that Zp customer. Its really obvious isn't it?
