Not all players have gotten their ribbon back after charge-backs.
I had to deal with the mess back in 2011 when Gambit Surveys initiated a wave of charge-backs (see here), and once I paid back the amount in prepaid cards and the temporary suspension was lifted I did not get the ribbon back. There are a good number of other older players that I know who lost their ribbon permanently from that mess back then as well.
Don't be so quick to call out players over the ribbon. It's not that big of a deal, but it really sucks to assume we lost it because of hacking if we never have.
I've heard of people getting those cheap prepaid phones and doing all of the mobile surveys that are suppose to charge subscriptions to your plan and all.
And this brings up an ironic point. Why does z8Games offer sketchy surveys for free ZP. Majority of them are malware, identity theft scams, phone subscriptions, etc. Save yourself the time and just buy ZP. In the end, it will be cheaper. I did those phony auto insurance and credit card surveys a year or two ago and when I went to get a mortgage a few months ago, my credit report showed I have an auto loan for some 2008 Mazda 6. I'm still trying to get that taken care of. Thanks though z8. -

Yeah... The abuse and sketchiness of surveys is a different discussion though, my point here is that op is pointlessly calling everyone without the ribbon a liar if they say they never hacked. There is no way to know how a player has lost the ribbon, as there are other ways to lose it.
So quit giving a damn about the honorable soldier ribbon. It means nothing. -

True. Every clan requires it in their application. But if you look through their member list, hell, even half the time the owner himself doesn't have the ribbon. -

Although the ban reason was for harassment to a mod which was unfair, the ban of the account was legitimate, even though I do not recall cheating on it in public.
I have a feeling Nonnen might like this topic but wont speak up.
Just for the future reference, I have never lied about my ban reasons.
Could you share the story about this "mod harrassment" story that led to the banning of the linked account? I'm curious about it
As for Nonnen, he has not ever tried to lie about his ban reasons. At least not while I was a mod. Things could have changed from then and now. But I disagree the slight "nod" you attempted there. Low blow in my opinion.CaptainKrum wrote: »WRONG

Hehe I remember when that came out. That really sucked for those who were banned because of it. Have you tried contacting Support again in recent times to try and get the ribbon reinstated? Hopefully the account(s) in question have exemplary record to show that there's nothing else they could keep the ribbon away for.PleaseStopp wrote: »And this brings up an ironic point.

Some people honestly cannot get their hands on readily available $$ like others, and therefore result to the free ZP survey section. I've done them in the past to get on some free and cheap points. I miss those video ads, such cheap 200-700 points xD xD.
It isn't Z8 that is offering the particularly questionable surveys; it's actually from the particular survey provider such as Super Rewards, who really don't give too much of a damn about filtering the bad and illegitimate surveys from the actual and true surveys, though I believe there may be laws that should be preventing such stuff (ie like to prevent email spam I think can also be applied here). If you do find those "bad" surveys, you can always report them either to Z8Games Support (I believe the Complaint section) or else to the support of the respective survey provider. -

my first account on z8 got banned perm due a test account acc when i was fighting all of them hack website we used to crack all the vip Hack and i sale it for money.

Sounds like a fair ban. There is no need to go "test" things such as hacks. I believe Z8 has always insisted to never attempt such things as it may lead to a ban.
And then profiting off of your actions? hmmm not bad. -

ive only ever got banned once and that was for abusing support because one of my accounts got scammed off my brother cause he wanted to get me free zp -_-and i gave the support original email, passwords,security answer deposit references and they still said i didnt give them enough information so i had a rage at them and got banned silly me
Since then never trusted my account information to anyone not even my brothers boring story but true. -

I was a victim of mobile surveys and was charged $399.17. Surveys are super sketchy. -

Meh now i don't really need to.

I uses a hack in December 2010 (can't remember) and one week later they introduced the ribbon system and I was like "great". Spend 10€ on the account at this point already and couldn't be bothered to make a new account, so I kept using this one.
I got a second chance and everybody deserves one. You can make up for your mistakes. Before anything else comes up, I didn't continue to cheat after that one time. It was that one time, and you can believe it or not, I didn't use something like that more than once even though some records might say so.
PS Warhawk : I'm busy atm and don't browse too often through here, I have the courage to admit what I've done. If you are still upset in any way, you can talk to me about it. -

That is what u said,[MOD]Nonnen wrote: »I got a second chance and everybody deserves one. You can make up for your mistakes.
however Z8Games Support Team don't want to agree about that.They refuse to give me my HSR back , however my rezone to lose it is a non hacking rezone.
In all big webs on the internet you must get warning message first before u got banne ,
if u continue ignore that warning message then u deserve to get ur banned after that.
My rezone is "Malicious software" .. i am not a PC engineering.. It was a virus..even if u have ten antivirus programs maybe one time a virus can affect ur PC..
They have Technical Support Team , however they never give me any Alert.
Look to the bot users they got warning in the first time and there HSR get back to them.

Im sorry but i dont believe you at all. There is no point in lying, nobody is going to shame you for hacking. -
Im slrry but i dont believe you at all. There is no point in lying, nobody is going to shame you for hacking.
Nah bro, it's true.. I don't think he is lying at all.
Lets say you was playing a game, and a virus infects you, the virus would be picked up by x-trap. It modifies files in a suspicious way hence why most adware from survey downloads are detected by x-trap, because of their behaviour.
Its possible that a player can be banned from a virus running on their machine.. -

I am not a kid to lie about some thing in a game.
This is the truth ..I NEVER USE HAKE , IT WAS a VIRUS
When i got that 3 days banne in 2009 the rezone was : "Malicious Software" ..They never said Hake
, and sure they couldn't cuz i never use hake in CF.
Believe it or not I DO NOT CARE.. -

You wouldn't be banned, and why would a virus directly change Crossfire's game files, unless that player had downloaded a keylogger that was perhaps linked to Crossfire, such as a ZP Hack, or some sort of VIP hack. All in all, it would have to be something connected to Crossfire, therefor still the players fault.
I don't actually know what happened however, so I am going to step out of this, I'm just saying I don't believe it, and it's understandable if you had tried hacking at some point. -
Since you bought this topic up, I would like to get a few things off my head.

I used to share my information with friends on this account, one day this "friend" was cheating on the account when i was offline. He showed me the replay of my account 1 shotting in mutation mode. I knew I was going to lose all my hard work so I admit to cheating on this account in the last 3 weeks of its permanent ban (2011)
http://clan.z8games.com/charstat_cf.aspx?usn=11491849
I admit to cheating on this account, ever since I lost my main "TastyRhymes?" I had rage building up in me, so I took it out on the game, after getting a very high KDR i decided to stop using cheats on there and use it as a cow (or something like that)
http://clan.z8games.com/charstat_cf.aspx?usn=7064153
Even though my brother quit playing CrossFire at that time, I ADMIT to cheating on his account but it was for farming reasons, i wanted to speed up the games so yes.. I shot the cows through walls and used a no reload but only in private games. Although the ban reason was for harassment to a mod which was unfair, the ban of the account was legitimate, even though I do not recall cheating on it in public.
They did a good job wiping out my every last account with the IP bans that were issued, and just to let you know they DO ban cheaters and always have. I became legit in 2012 and have never touched a cheat since I also convinced many of my cheater friends to do the same, however i occasionally browse cheating websites to see what they are up too. I know you probably don't hear this everyday but I truly am sorry for cheating back in 2011.
Everything I knew at the time were used to get the cheats, exploits patched, and that's when I became legit.
I have a feeling Nonnen might like this topic but wont speak up. Just for the future reference, I have never lied about my ban reasons.
I've never hacked, I never was able to get one without a virus back in the old days...Now I realize I dont need no hacks, its more fun of a game without them. I guess I was just stupid enough to not be a hacker, lol.
