To Help Stop Hacking

Post » Sat Feb 25, 2012 10:44 pm

I've been working on the Op "Fly Swatter" patch for a bit now, and I'm very close to an experimental patch for servers that will identify any kind of hack, and permanently ban the hacker. Because some hackers are fairly good, and may be able to evade getting identified by the server, the server will also connect to a list of known hackers and prevent them from joining.

The reason why I am posting this as a new thread instead of in the Op "Fly Swatter" thread is because of the following...

Any user with the Clan Name or Prefix of...

>OVER
>AIM
>SuperAim
>Chaos
>KO
>HKD

or a player with an IP that matches the IP

or a player with invalid characters in their username

Will be prevented from joining the server unless their username is included on a whitelist accessible by the server.

I know this is kind of inconvenient for those of you who this will affect but do not hack. That is why I made the whitelist.

Please continue this thread with Whitelist Requests and suggestions.
