While our server is easily the most cheat free pvp server in existence, there are still too many cheaters on our server. It's time for our second judgement day. This will have two different forms of judgements.1. Our autoclicker detection judgement day was very successful, with most people admitting we were right, and most of the biggest egos saying we are lying and was publicly humiliated. This one is a continuation of the first judgement day. We will start automatically banning for excessive autoclicker notifications. We've made the autoclicker detection be able to tell when players and/or the server is lagging. No more turning it under what mods can see and hoping the admins don't look into you. You're going to get RIP'd, and then get laughed at by the administration when you appeal. This will be done totally random and without warning.
2. After much playing around with hacked clients, we've figured out how they work. GCheat can now detect most forms of kill aura and force field automatically and reports it to moderators to investigate and ban. GCheat also detects a variety of click aimbots and clients (and sometimes it'll detect you just being logged in with a certain client, not even using the cheat functions of it because of how a lot of them work). Here's a list of common misconceptions before people even try to hide behind these defenses:
- The check accounts for lag, if you say lag in your appeal I will laugh my ass all the way to the deny section.
- I've already caught several well known people who have been suspected of toggling or using a ghost client. I watched someone stream today with a ghost client that we specifically tested with and detect.
- The way we detect these it is algorithmically IMPOSSIBLE from a code standpoint to set these off from a vanilla client. We tested 1.7.X all the way to current version just to make sure, and tested with 100+ people we know are clean.
- Mods have been asked not to ban the closet toggling cheaters so you have your chance to come clean in this thread.
- It's not that stupid invisible entity bullshit that most anticheats use to detect kill aura as that's a fucking joke method of doing it that can be bypassed by any hacked client with a brain and has more false positives then actual positives.
- Yes, I'm purposely leaving out core parts of how this works so it's harder to attempt to bypass
- No, I will not explain how it works anymore than what is in this thread.
- Extra point: The staff team has become scared of how GCheat is detecting "impossible" cheats.
Here's some bans to prove how many hackers we've caught with only 2-3 mods on, and these were only the blatantly visible ones, most closest cheaters were left to continue cheating.

Same thing goes as previous judgement day thread. You are allowed to confess to only Kill Aura/ForceField/Click Aimbot/Hacked Client/Ghost Client related offenses (in the last two weeks) in this thread and ALSO send a private message to MasterGberry and Archybot with a link to the download of the hacked client. You will only be given a second long ban and a wipe of your ELO on judgement day. If you attempt to send us either a virus/worm/ip grabber you will unleash a side of me you do not want to deal with, just go ask the infamous Tewmes how that went for him (I basically traced him down to his actual address, name, cell numbers, location of work, etc though his VPN proxy - https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/17891).
If you do not confess and you are detected, I will start allowing my staff team to start issuing bans sometime randomly in the next week or so to the closet/toggling cheaters. My staff is already getting upset that I'm not allowing them to ban them because they know how accurate it works from working with it for a few hours, and want to rid the server of cheaters. If you think you are safe, just ask these people how it worked out for them - https://www.badlion.net/forum/thread/17863/post/87338#87338. This thread, unlike the other, isn't to prove to us that it's accurate. We know from a pure logic and algorithmic level that it is, and we have proved it to people under legal NDA's that it is indeed correct.
Have a nice day.
EDIT: Date is set for 1/3/15 3PM EST
EDIT 2: Here is the list of all the banned players https://gist.github.com/mastergberry/33295d205a37abf35099

Stop startin all the cool stuff when im gone T_TPosted on 24 December 2014 - 04:30 PM
@Archybot I used Bow-Aimbot like a week ago, dont wanna get banned for some bullshit so I am just gonna admit it.Posted on 24 December 2014 - 06:19 PM
If you're not going to admit anything, don't post.Posted on 24 December 2014 - 10:29 PM
Varicks, I honestly don't expect anyone to come forward. People who use ghost clients have the mentality they can blatantly cheat in front of people and get away with it.Posted on 25 December 2014 - 12:01 AM

Me and Metrais were speculating on this earlier. What we have observed from the appeals of suspected closet cheaters was that they generally believe they're invincible. Hell, half of them go on to make Youtube channels and criticize others, well all the while cheating themselves.

Well people who use ghost clients usually use them because they care about their reputation too much. I mean usually people who use them record with them, of course they aren't going to come forward.
They know they are not legit, but choose to accept the fact that they think they are gods because that's just how humans are. It's like taking credit for something that you didn't do, or that something that isn't yours. You know it's wrong, but with all the credit you gain for something that isn't yours or something that you didn't do is overwhelming with positivity. people don't know this until you're exposed. We all use to do that once in life.
I know the closet-hackers will regret what they are doing but It's human nature not to admit to something wrong when your whole reputation builds off of it. This is why we see dumbasses trying to deny the fact they cheated in the first banwave, you know them as JuanAlejandro and Tweety, the most repulsive one in my opinion was Mushway who thought the system was flawed.
If anyone with a ghost client admits i'll probably slightly change my opinion on closet cheaters.
