Cheating: Banned for life #4: VNS
Hello community,
To be quite honest, when we first started this we thought it will be enjoying cleaning up the community. The thought of starting fresh was overwhelming. But now, we have come to realize that our actions will also do some damage. We already knew that, but somehow, as we go deeper into the problem we get that feeling of awareness and suddenly everything feels more "real".
I guess this is because we kind of have the first major player about to be banned. VNS is considered, more or less, by a considerable proportion of our audience, as an iconic players. And when this happens to someone like that, dark feelings are also bound to happen.
However, we would like to think that all this is for a greater good. So, with this being said, let's get into some facts. We will reveal as much as we can, without mentioning sensitive informations about our checking procedure.
Before going any further, we would like to mention that we had to discuss this matter with the well known eDark before taking any decision. We felt that it is important to find out his opinion and eventually to have his blessing, more or less, because we wanted to be absolutely sure of our findings. In the end, this was his conclusion:
[quote="eDark"]eDark: overall i would say the hacking part is solid
eDark: yes for the hacking part it s enough[/quote]
So, between the years of 2012 and 2015 he used 4 different bhop hacks and he recorded 64 cheated demos. You may also ask yourself what does the "hacking part" means. Well, beside the cheating proofs we had there were also other suspicious facts, but those do not concern Xtreme-Jumps and due to this reason are left out.
All of his demos will be deleted and he will be permanently banned.
This is an unfortunate case, as the player in question had a special place in our hearts and he was on the way to really leave a mark in our KZ community.
However, our journey doesn't stop here and we are really working on possible solutions to change this community for the better. These things require time, but we are confident we will manage to accomplish some of them, at least.
Thank you for your attention and see you soon!
Best regards,
