Ideas to prevent Hacks

ChaosHGM · July 2011

Everybody knows that 95% of the hacks (not just for CF) come from theses sites: mp.. and wc
Can't Z8 and the other games affected put theses sites down?
just saying..

They probably could. I don't see why they do. It's a free game, why hack it in the first place?

Do they REALLY feel that inadequate?

You cant just close a site takes a hell of time! just make it impossible to hack thats the only helping.

They know there are sites that provide hacks for people.
But I dont see why dont they sue them or something =s.

The legal process takes time, and most sites are being hosted on free webhost server so its hard to figure out who is running the sites. All the site host got to do is take down there site and make a new one somewhere else to erase the trail to them. With no fast way to find out the identity of the site host, and the ease for them to run, hide, and make a new site before they get caught. There is little point in chasing the site owners.

So in short, Taking down the sites takes time legally, its hard to find out who hosted the site, and its too easy to make a new one.

Can't sue someone if you can't prove who is responsible.

Just develop your own anti hack program and submit it to z8games. Most useful thing you can do to help.

Plus I don't think they are breaking any laws.
Cheating in an online game isn't illegal

There are also big sites that are easier to take down, cuz they are hard to recreate

Selling the hacks is illegal. using the hacks just breaks the terms of acceptance.

G4Box owns crossfire, and anyone making money on anything based off of it with out their permission is breaking a trade law. (This includes selling hacks for crossfire)

If they just give away the hacks for free, then its legal.

True, but there is hundreds of small free site hostings. And hitting them all would take a lot of time and money. Just hitting the big ones is fine, but won't stop the hackers from finding new sites to host at.

Better than nothing man ;p

takes 5 years to legally close down a site. takes 5 minutes to get a new one back up and running

HopsinX · July 2011

We don't need to take the sites down, all we need is a better anti-cheat system and perm bans
