Dear Staff and Saidin

Dear Staff and Saidin
I come to you with a proposal, how to effectively get rid of hackers.
Assign the GP 500 for each reply received that resulted with Viceroy. Introduce a new way to file reply with some more options and so you have more quality reports.
Reward those who make up half the work for you and encourage fair play.

  • The way I see it, this would lead to more people sending in false reports, which leads to legitimate reports not being seen until much later due to the spam that's been generated by the players seeking a reward just for reporting someone.
  • All this would encourage is for people to spam-report people. You would get everyone who can go 4-1 getting reported for "chamming". It is counter-effective, and honestly doesn't do anything in my opinion.

    If you want a clean game, report. If you want to get a reward for doing something as primitive as reporting, you shouldn't be reporting as you're doing it for the wrong reasons.
  • Your reward for reporting hackers is seeing less hackers in game.
  • That would just mean having more reports from people which probably 3/4 of them are false...and maybe others will start hacking and report their own accounts thinking they'll get more gp that way :|

    Well its not like they permanantly ban them anyways, some people just don't give a damn. Its about the money.

    Being banned for hacking through reports are perm. The auto-ban feature in-game gives a 1 week ban.

    Don't be so ignorant next time you post on a thread like this.
  • Agreed,
    Their community is helping out with massive amount of hack reports
    Their idiotic staff are either arrogant or just plain STUPID if they don't reconcile with their players by offering rewards for their community daily/weekly report to improve the game.

    Same goes with mod, try to get a real occupation would ya? this dump won't last for long

    THE GAME ITSELF IS A MESS, Lets face FACT NOW, Nothing IN LIFE COMES FOR FREE, BUT YOU SURE AS HELL CAN MANIPULATE THESE PAWNS INTO DOING YOUR DIRTY WORK(PROVIDING EFFORT INTO REPORTING HACKS), AT LEAST FOR THE TIME BEING UNTIL THEY FINALLY REALIZE THAT FACT.
  • all you people saying the staff doesnt care about us and only about the money.if that was true they wouldnt even replay to your questions or help you get your accounts back or bane people.get your m4a1-CC etc they help you as much as they can.you try owning a game with A LOT of people and keep it perfect 24/7. they are trying to make this game the funniest it can be for us. but the game is only has fun as you make it,so if all you look at is the hackers you will get mad at crossfire and leave the game when there is amazing and nice people on this game :)

    If they have never done those things, then it would be just too obvious to conceal their true potential.

    In other words, they're doing those little perks to hide the "concealed" fact of what's really happening
    Face it, with 4/5 guns being reskins and the 20% are a rip off new gun with zp content written all over it
  • 333Hackers are the NO.1 thread to this game in my opinion. They really drove away other players, because as we know, CF is competing against other games that can have better anti-hacking softwares or systems like steam.

    This is something that require investment and strategies. CF already suffered from hacker reputation, but this current patch is an improvement.

    You really don't want to mention CF and then be commented as "oh yeah that hacker infested game".

    why not make it +500gp for a successful report and -500gp for ones that are spam? if you report someone who isnt a hack but seems like one all the gp from the real hackers you have reported would cancel out the -500gp....

    You wrong...i report 2 wall shoter with reply...after 1 week they dont have anymore Honorable soldier but still play.
    ign : TaMeRFa and ign:soldiernudel
    so MAN , its all about money, that account should be bane but they still online. probably they buyt a lot of ZP. this game is starting to go down......>>>>>>
  • Is it possible to implement something like in-game police force? Similar to player mods in Runescape. Selected few players would have the ability to immediately ban players after the game, bypassing the process of current reporting. The reports those players send would have priority and would be looked upon closer so if they try to abuse it, they'd get instantly demoted or even banned. I'm still not sure what would be the criteria to select them.

    Good point, it makes the idea workable and valid, it could be set up to be automatic so that the reviewer doesn't have added work to manually edit the GP amounts on the account.

    If the reviewer clicks "ban" thats 500gp to the reporter if he clicks "clear" then -500gp.

    The only problem with this system is that you will know for sure when your replay has been reviewed and if it never gets reviewed like many do not then Z8 will have lots of complaints with proof.

    u have right but how but u dont let 1 day player to have right to report like in blackmarket u can buy undtil u have no staff sergent rank like i said u can t report if u dont have so rank is that a filter for false report imagine what think a new player who get kill by a major "this is hak i will report him""and u get a false report
  • Your guys are talking like the problem is that not enough people are reporting.
    It is quite the opposite, Support gets so many reports a day they can't get through them all.
    Offering a reward for reports would only increase the problem and many reports are already false.

    A better solution would be to get Z8 to hire more report reviewers to get through them all faster. But getting people that can tell the difference between a hack, luck, and skill would be difficult.

    I'd really encourage you to read this thread:

    http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?t=195843

    It has a lot of information on the things we do against hackers.

    We cannot issue rewards for reporting hackers as it would already encourage more false reports than we already get.

    Sure, but as you see below this would not only encourage correct reporting but it would reduce false reporting = win win

  • 50/50 for me because most likely support would have a bunch of people who want extra GP and just report random people.. so I'm going to have to say eh
  • I think if you charge like 500gp everytime you vote kick, people would think twice before kicking...No more nooobs kicking for no reason

    Oh yes.
    Give players infinite vote kicks, but have it cost 500 GP for each one and if it does pass refund the 500 GP.

    Those who are kick happy will quickly lose the ability to kick vote.

    Lol I agree, if it cost them 500gp every-time I would encourage their rage kicking.
  • This is like saying you get candy for doing a chore. We don't need rewards/gifts for every single thing we do lol. Our reward is less hackers in games and lately I haven't even see hacks out there. -1
  • This is like saying you get candy for doing a chore.

    The is how employment works, you do a job you get paid. Since we are taking our time to help Z8games they should pay/reward.

    Less hackers is Z8's reward, since that encourages more growth and customer satisfaction. It is not a reward for us since you wouldn't expect to play a game filled with hackers anyway.

    Also most people don't report to make the game clean they report for revenge.
  • Do you have any bloody idea how often I would get reported if there were incentives to report....blah. They would ban me just so people would stop reporting me.

    -999999

    There is no fool proof or better way to eliminate hackers other than giving certain in-game players ban powers, but of course they might abuse these powers (so that is why they do not do it)
  • Are you one of the noobs,that think everyone pro,is hackers??
