Mobile phone required for new account
How about make a mobile phone requirement for every new account from now on. If you have to have a mobile phone to register a new account it will be more difficult for hackers to get new accounts. At the moment all you need is a e-mail and that is easy to get alot of. Mobile phones are alot more difficult to get alot of. It doesn't have to cost anything. just send a text to the mobile phone registered for a confirmation code, and the problem of hacking will eventually be alot less.

Not everyone has a mobile phone

More ideas
Well I have more ideas and solutions for the "don't have mobile phone issue".
If you don't have mobile phone you could buy an account that comes with say 20000 zp for the same price as it cost to deposit zp. Anyway, most people have access to a friends- or parents' phone.
The idea is to make it harder to create accounts for the sole purpose of hacking. Which in turn lowers the experience of legit players. I'm very concerned about this issue because if the problem isn't dealt with it will only get worse over time.
Also a quicker way to report, would be welcome. Also the save replay button shouldn't disappear so fast. The 2 last replays should be available for saving till you exit the game. -
why does it have to be a mobile phone? I don't see how this prevents hackers either. The hackers and players both have mobile phones you know O_O. Requiring a mobile phone would just limit everyone without a mobile phone from playing the game. Which ,means Z8 games would lose money - and they don't pay attention to ideas that lose them money.

but just imagine logistic problems coming with your phone idea - one phone number for every country, dealing with providers etc
buying account is nice, but not everyone is able to pay for gaming(for variety of reasons)
the main problem is, that even if you report someone, there´s no action coming, I reported one guy(lady;) in November and yet, he´s still in and nothing has happened, so quick actions and banning hackers´ IPs permanently for a single one hack is the right way -
I'm not saying that you can only have one account with each phone number. You could have more accounts on one phone number, but if one is found to be hacking, all should be banned. This will keep hackers from just creating another account and get right back to hacking.
Did I mention that I hate hackers? Well, I do.
