BLOG - Hook – 12/28/06

I have noticed lately that more & more CHEATERS are successfully entering servers without being “Kicked”.
I can not see why anyone would want to use a cheat??? It has Got to be REALLY Boring!!!

Either the Cheats they are using are staying ahead of the Anti-Cheat software the servers are using or maybe the
Anti-Cheat software makers are just not updating their software to stay in tune with the cheats!?!
I was in the “Nerds Network” server (the one that has Deck16 on all the time) several times over the past month where
Cheating was happening.
This has been a server that I frequented a lot over the years & is a “PURE” cheat protected server!
Besides being killed by the cheats over & over, (even when the cheater was from a different area in the map & killing
several at once LOL), I noticed that the cheater didn’t show up in the “Find Servers” window in the players roster along
with the other players on that server!
Everybody was angry at that guy but the server didn’t kick him.
He wasn’t even detected by the server! His name wasn’t there on the roster even though he was playing on the server!
Another time I was on that server, several were cheating (I won’t go into how I knew), but no-one seemed to even care
when I pointed it out.

They came down on ME as IF I was the “bad guy” on the server!
I still like playing on that server but, needless to say, I check it out right away.
If I detect a Cheat, I point it out, and then I get out of there & go to another server!
This is something that I have been afraid might happen to UT99 on the online servers.
As the game gets older, less & less updating of the anti-cheat software will happen. Soon there will be rampant
cheating, etc.
I guess then maybe there will have to be more “Private” servers put up where you have to be screened & then if you pass
you will be given a password to get into the server. ???
Let ME know if you have any thoughts on this! – Hook

Up next -> the subject of “NOOBS” or “NOOBIES” on the online servers & etc. (coming soon)
