The servers have been getting very busy lately which is a good thing, but with that also comes more whining and complaining and more hacking accusations. The hacking accusations have gotten so bad lately that we have to start taking action against the repeat accusers. These people will get a warning to start and then temp bans will start. If that doesn't work then you will be banned from the server. It's very easy to get proof, go to spectate, record the player. However you want to do it, but the most easy way to do it is this Bring down your console and type: /record (demo's will be named demo00000.dm_1, demo000001.dm_1 etc etc.) To stop the record, type: /stoprecord Get the demo file and send it to an admin, they look at it and see the hacking being done and they ban the player. It's so easy to do, instead of going in game everyday and accusing the same players everyday and whine they're not banned yet, just get the video and they're banned. Very very simple. So instead of possibly getting banned from the greatest servers on the planet, just get the video. If you spectate the person and can't see their hacking then you should go into the server after and say I spectated them and they are not hacking.

Also remember this is from experience, when servers get busy with new players there are a lot of good players that play on other servers or other games and might be coming back to the game you play. Not every new player who beats everyone is a Hacker and they may a server that makes playing ours easier for their skill set. I have found that since my cell phone is right by my PC when I play I can quickly grab it and video what I am seeing as a player competing against a hacker then go to Spectate and keep the recording going as you watch the hacker. When someone is getting loads of kills and few deaths look at the number of "Head Shots" or quickly picking up a target when they enter the screen. When looking for a "Wall Hack" the trick here is a little more complex. If a player is picking up targets before they can be seen out a door or window that is a tell. Also if they seem to scan walls and buildings even more than they do open areas that is a quick tell. However this is why I prefer to use my Cell Phone, I can talk during the recording so the Admins hear what I am trying to point out as it is being seen. Plus a Hacker usually picks the games most popular weapons not the ones everyone else uses because of the game type and server settings. A hacker will most the worst weapons unbeatable. As mentioned before PERKS pay a huge role in many games we play. It is very hard to find scripts running in the background like "Spanky always dropping a nade when he died" like in the old days on COD2 but recording it happening to you over and over can be the proof needed. It is much easier to not let the hacker know you suspect them and get the evidence before you tip your hand and most hackers are people and if they get called out or someone says "Fuckin Hacker" they are the first to respond 95% of the time. Just like banned players who come back with a new name they always say hi to their friends if they have any. Please keep in mind almost all "New Players" to our servers are just like you were long ago and just hope to find a Fun Server they Enjoy and feel Welcome and calling out Cheaters makes us look like kids instead of "The Worlds Largest PC Gaming Clan". Not every Admin is a Pro at catching Hacks but everyone tries and the best way for those with loads of experience catching the Bad Guys can tell from a good video and well worth the time you spend helping the Clan take out the trash. This is how I became a Admin by seeing things that looked "ODD" and watching how it might be happening and getting the PROOF. Have fun and good gaming.

Anyone who kills me is hacking, i dont need to say it daily, they know.... oh they know!

Please welcome UCJOHN to the COD5 Moderator Team. He brings with him several years of admin and server experience so will make a good addition to team and help to cover some of the day time hours. Congrats UCJOHN!

nice one mr lupus

Like i asked a very good player ...... walked around my nade when tossed at player "you have bomb squad on and replyed yes ..........so no hacking just very smart use of perks in game. to the whiners just use that lip service to hand service by hitting the Tilde key when start game to catch or not miss any violations just my sense of fairness

Hi all that we had to do that in my old article as proof but like a : open console and write : /record name of players ( you can write 3-4 letters of the name ) for easy find the demo !

darn !!!! i felt so special beeing the only mod welcome UCJohn

you'll be bungee jumping with me again!!!

shut up ice twat! and come play with your boy! ive got baloo balls

OR play cod5 ft twice the fun half the issues plus all our women have sexy voices and some of the guys do too. Not that I would know though. I'm told we have twat waffles too sounds fun to me

Upon reading the subject of your post, I initially thought you were suggesting an alternative to "COD4 freezetag" I'm not the one you are referring to, but apparently, I was also unaware of an easy solution to the problem. Thank you for taking the time to provide a better solution!

Either is hilarious

just seen this thread &nbsp;by Blackrose if having those OS's just need to back up all your game to HDD caddy, burn to DVD-BD Disc or use from old system the drive games were on COPY in new PC and relink games to desktop, once done remove old drive an keep it as your back up of your game's

Hey @SweeperMan , only a couple of pints. I love Rum as well Never played freeze tag but will check it out.

PhucketMan other dislike is player without a mic, to hide former cheater, who returned to servers to make them feel superior ...in thier own mind..... parochial attitude

Congratulations and welcome to the team, ucjohn !

Ghostlupus if I'm ever out your way I will buy you a couple pints...You need to come to freeze tag server and play with us.

I did an IP Geo-location search the IP. WTF ????? Well it kinda makes more sense why everyone is laggin more than usual. Why would it go to an international carrier before going to the server? 62.115.123.122 "isp": "Arelion Sweden AB" "domain": "arelion.com" Arelion, formerly named Telia Carrier and TeliaSonera International Carrier (TSIC), is a provider of telecommunication services based in Solna, Sweden.

Thank you Skuz!

Thank you Skuz!

thank you Skuz

thank you Skuz

i as a mod feel left out and now i read admins get payed ????? ooooo i feel sad now aswell i'll except my pay in beer Merlin jokes aside , i don't know about all the other servers and game types ( DM FFA etc ) but we at OW Freezetag ( and Vietnam Freezetag ) got a very consistent bunch of regular players. When new players come in , we got binds to explain them how to play freezetag. And try to explain through gamevoice. A while ago we had those accusations about cheating aswell. We put up a bind explaining that false accusations will result in a kick and even a ban. well we haven't had those accusations since as far as i know.

We're on different servers so I don't think I'm familiar with you. However, as others said, it was a great read. Thanks for sharing.

@Ghostlupus very nice read, thanks for sharing!

good to read pal

Great write up @Ghostlupus, Thanks for sharing

That's awesome,I've tried metdap detecting one,I'm a gold prospector/miner so I digg in the ground too
