MACKxBOLAN

I have my own brand of cheat points. We'll call them Patootie Points. So You don't have to necessarily let me see you hacking. Pretty much a 2 Strikes n You're OUT. I consider a few things that lean my opinion one way or another. Name's, Threat, Demeanor in Chat, if car trolling, and other gut feelings. With aim hackers you need to sorta check em out, consider if they could have seen you and aimed that fast, and or missed a few or not missed any. So I need at least two times of me highly suspecting smooth aim or full bot was used. One of the things i watch for are Golds or Gud's that come in talking about other people hacking. But are otherwise toxic, as if they work for the Good Guys. Now none of this mean i will or won't report, it just makes you a patootie to Mack. The result being i will play in different fashion. Now this doesn't mean that if you troll me twice and call my mama names, I think You're a Hacker, No I think you're a patootie. But I also think you are just as much a cancer to this game as the hacker. So it comes down to Judgement by Patootie Points. Then you are considered a 'Known' in my book.

Jg 12 gauge shotgun. The plain no slot 640 or 840 not sure on the number. can be obtained thru the beginning tutorial as perm weapon (non tradable ) or the same gun as the 940 jg, aka NOL which is awarded as a loyalty weapon for buying stuff in armas. It has one open slot. Do Not modify the weapon with red mods. only put a quick mag change on it. That is all You need. Then You want a pistol to pair with the shotgun, such as the .45 or RSA. These simply to deal with threats at range and keep them down while you get closer.

Been the standard reply and Hacker Motto for Years. This is part of their sociopathic rhetoric, They say these things as if it were written in a sports play book. The object being to make you feel inferior and cause you to lose confidence. While at the same time trying to boost their own ego, and possible make you think they are not cheating. Their objective is to make you quit playing. These people only play games they can cheat at. To them the game is like a Club-House, You are welcome to come in, as long as they can bash and meme you. Now if two hackers fight each other, knowing the other has hax, they will blame the gun, accuse the other of using it for a Crutch. Then they will go into the semantics of the gun and go on in chat about the ttk and range specs of the gun. Again trying to make the chat audience feel inferior, All being part of their Mind Scam. Most hackers know each other, and are in communication via Discord, So even using the in-game chat is obsolete to them, so if they are using it, it is for You to hear or see. Now some hackers may be able to play, but for the most part they can't. Not without hax and or other exploits in play such as spies within the enemy team or outside the mission. So in reality they are the ones who are 'Bad', they also suffer from ego issues, and so they compensate for their Failed life by trying to bring others down to their level so they feel big and important. Not all but most of your career cheaters are gonna have some sort of social imbalance or psychological issues, possibly stemming from early childhood events or pre-existing psychiatric issues.

Then They Win. Getting Legits to quit, and making people angry or as you kids call it, 'Crying' . That is what they crave. So I would be taking away from my own fun and love of the Game, and giving them what they want. I also believe that the more legits that keep playing, albeit playing as cannon fodder, we are adding to the algorithm what normal people should be scoring or playing. I understand now why, certain people said sard was not active server side at that time. I understand why known hackers are still around and we are not seeing the results. I will admit I was furious at Matt over the unbanning. But after understanding what the end game will be for the hacker, I mean this point system is Better than seeing them banned. Ok so the points wear off after a while, So this means they either will not hack as much before being sanctioned, and afterward they will be forced to play legit, or switch accounts. So while playing legit they will get smeared and won't like that. They will either revert back to hacking or say the game is dead or boring and leave.

@MattScott I do appreciate the update. I know this is a bit more complicated than screwing in a light bulb. This is more like Re-wiring the whole house. Now I understand the delay. To the average gamer they are just looking at the light bulb, and saying it doesn't work. I am intrigued at how the outcome will be.

I found the Little Orbit Community 'page' or site. All these years hearing about discord, it's so primitive. I don't think this is where the GM's hang out. The only thing i would worry about with posting on discord is, that the hacker or his associates may see that post and warn the hacker to leave district or hide. I'm not running down there for every suspected aim cheat. Only if I see that speed hacker. Hackers seem to think that's it is Cool or OK to do this sort of thing. As if they are only victimizing L.O. When they are robbing the average player of gaming fun. In the case of a speed hacker, he not only robs the legit player, but he add's grief and suspicion to the other hackers. Causes more distrust of the Sard-ac. You see He is bad news for us all.

found the Community, being very Green to discord. Its not so much that the dude is breaking the hacking rules, its that the way he is doing it, is splashing mud all over Sard. Making it to where if sard can't catch this guy or detect him. It's not gonna detect anything the others may or may not be doing. He makes sard look bad, LO look bad, and all of your sweatys look bad. This isn't about federal laws and Good v Evil. This is about a Threat to Our Game. I rarely would step to up to help Golds and Trolls, but this person is a threat to us All. We asked him why, He said because nobody gaf's . He was my team mate, so all i could do was put my gun away, and refused to help him. I have boggled my brain trying to figure out how i can kill him, best thing I've come up with is to try to push an npc car in his way so he would run into the car. Bunch of golds went after him chasing him, n they said they tried everything on him n couldn't kill him. They chased him in cars like that day Matt was in-game. I don't want to make this a rant but some of us believe that sard is off, and there are some that believe hacking common ect. What the speed hacker is doing, blows all that up. You're gonna get more false hacusations and false reporting, More toxic chat ect.

It was more of Notice In absence of a Greater Authority, I will be conducting Anti Hacker Operations in the NA districts. 'So the Mods know me, and with what I've said they know I flipped my lid' So maybe they will drop in and possibly spot this speed hacker. But I understand they are not able to ban, but Matt can. I not in there raging on golds or trolls or the average hacker. It's one person i'm looking for. I'm gonna Hunt him/her down and tk em or otherwise stop them. Outside of that I'll be quiet and follow the rules, But if I see him. The rules may be strayed from.

Yes, I appreciate that. Some of it was actual law studies, some just wisdom. I'm not even versed in Federal law, but when its done by Wire, crossing State or Federal lines, it becomes a Federal Matter. That said, You and I know that no federal agent is gonna be knocking on the hackers door. Point is they are cruel people, they aren't cheating the game like some play station cheat code, they are victimizing players and defrauding them of fun. Federal Law Also allows me to form my own Militia in absence of GM's or other Game authority. Called The Second Amendment

Wire Fraud to start with. Its is Fraud by Wire, Defrauding LO and their players from gaming fun they have paid for. And Because I'm Mack. I Super associate this crime with the lesser but more immoral street crimes, and State level Laws such as assault or larceny. So it would like having a Mad man break into an old folks home and beat the old people. But my personal hatred for hackers makes no difference here. These people are Criminals, And I will Thwart them every chance I get. This is a Repeat offender, everyone knows that name, its one that has had videos, has a name like that plastic pipe for sprinklers. Says he is doing it because nobody gaf. Well I got news for ya. I Gaf. I won't back down to a thug, I'll take his fake chain and make him like a wallet, and fold him up and put him in my pocket. You Dig!

I have. I have made the reports and don't care who knows. I am Trashing NA at this Time. I still see No fkn GM in district. AND I WILL CONTINUE TO DESTROY APB . yOU WILL STOP THIS PERSON, UNTILL YOU STAFF DO, I WILL BE A BIG PATTOOTIE IN DISTRICT. IM GONNA SCREAM AND BLOW UP THIS FORUM TILL THE PERSON IS BANNED. THIS ISN'T SOMETHING I THINK CUZ I GOT SHOT ITS A FKN SPEED HACKER @MattScott, @Nanichi You don't stop him I will.

Why Is L.O. Allowing Blatant Speed Hacking in NA. Why is Matt Scott not in district stopping him. Why are no GM's in district stopping him? If You Don't stop him, I will alert Federal Authority to whats going on in This business. Reports have been made, I expect immediate results and perm ban or I will Destroy APB.

Shame on LO for letting all these Hackers rome around free. You are Harboring Criminals. NO AC NO BANS NO STAFF NO MATT Bunch of extremely evil people

You may be Right, I May be crazy, but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for' Funny them dirty cheaters spend all day bending my ear, so they must like it

None of these balancing changes they have made has any Merit. If the masses of hackers we're eliminated, Then some of these changes may have some good or bad merits to the game. Until something is done, which at this point means a new owner, who does not favor hackers, doesn't favor short term bans or any bans at all. Someone who when You cry for help against hackers doesn't turn around and stab you in the back and dig up 1000s more hackers to throw at you. Makes no difference what ac you put in or if it works if the CEO wont Ban. The CEO and Company have Impeached the Honor of their Credibility. Doesn't matter how many contacts, cars, guns they add. It will always be considered a Hacker's Game.

Thank God!!! No More extra sound trolls, as if the joker wasn't loud enough.

Trying would be mass bans and not fibbing about eac. Games gone, its been dead n hax are making sure it stays dead. They refuse to play fin only play wf so they can dial in their bots. All these masses of hackers running around flocking to this game simply to hack it out. Just to stop a couple of legits. Funny how they flock up n all try to be in missions to stop me. Thinking they are screwing me somehow, when I'm there simply to ruin their hackings. They'll wake up n think, gee that legit mack might still play so they round up as many hax they can find n sit in wf and lag bot fin so everyone has to go to wf. bring in 30 hackers n sit n wait for Mack or any legit to come in. So you consider the amount of money spent on hax to stop one legit in a game they already killed. Game is ran by criminals the government has failed to arrest.

Money. The one word answer to most problems. See the west na server has always been. It was the Bronze server thru out segregation. Being a californian, my ms was very low 1-15ms, but if we wanted to play the more popped district which was silver, we had to go up to 25-40 ms. I believe what was known as the eastern server located in new york was the old silver server. My point being that the current west server has always been here. So they had to pay for the east server n don't seem to pay for west. Based on what I heard Matt saying in the pod cast. So they have to find a server in the eastern US, but one that is budget friendly. The west server is free to my knowledge.

I've never seen this function in apb, I see allot calling '85 but that seems to be an estimate. I don't believe an enemy damage bar would work in apb. War thunder has something like this, mainly used in the Naval area. Where target are slow moving and miles away, and you can repair under fire. So relative to apb where targets are moving much faster at closer ranges. Where everyone has the same health (excluding kev and fragile). The time to rehealth or repair is much smaller. Too many variables to install a health bar, or pop up box. not enough room on the screen. With WT there are different vehicles with different damage models and health. The Health/damage box only shows up if you hit them, and is really only used or needed for large heavy armored targets. I realize I'm comparing apples to oranges but in apb that health number could change very fast based on too many variables. Use of med spray is instant, not a long repair over time. Or the guy could trip n fall, so by the time the damage box shows up with a value, the opp could have med sprayed, fallen, been shot by a tm. That said, I don't believe it would be a simple thing to program in.

Like to see Red mods abled on a few weapons, oca-sd and others with silencers or that are red mod blocked. like the Aces

Ya the game is geared for high performance players by way of mm, lack of segregation. Then the anti cheat false ban Hog Wash story Matt told. Now if he had been honest and said we have a low pop so were gonna let some of the banned back in. We'd be unhappy but he'd be honest. So now it doesn't matter if you prove them a hacker or report em ect. They just gonna let em back in. Then when they come back in, they terrorize everyone they think is a snitch, or not a hacker. So reporting or coming here to 'Tell on them' is an unviable weapon against them. So yes, the no name shaming policy and You did not follow the right channels to do this. You are suppose to send your video to support. The forum and it's gm's are not able to help you or the situation. Only the support staff can do this. Don't get me wrong, I hate hackers. We have known about the Ytube videos for a long time but if the staff use just those vids as evidence the accused player will say the vid was altered. Then getting back to the penalty if they are banned, they will just get let back in. The Way to get the hacker is to take what he wants. Most want gold and a high k/d and lots of em like to chat bash. So you mess with them by not engaging in chat or listening to it. You be the mediocre player on their team when they demand all gold hi scoring as tm's and opp. That is basically the object of the game now, to irritate hackers. You already know that any mission will be mostly hax, so you're gonna lose. But You don't play to win or lose, you play when bored with other games simply to find deviates and irritate them. Until then the only thing I would recommend doing is writing your congressman to work for new laws governing games and aimbots as a Fraud offense. Cuz we are not getting any help from LO

What if I didn't want to hunt pumpkins. I see it as noise pollution, to missions and my personal music. Ruins my tactical focus. You already have to mute out to spawn in cause of the joker. They should keep their pumpkins in the event. If you shoot one in a mission, just to shut him up, it will expose your position on radar. So I guess the answer is to hunt them all down, with each of like 9 characters. Event turned me against the Holiday long ago. Pumpkin Pie I used to love, now I hate it and it gives you heartburn and the runs.

The original designers were narrow minded and under educated about Vehicles in general but more so with Trucks. Any Truck should have its drive wheels under the Load, or under the Truck Bed. A Drive Axel supports supports suspension and its weight steady's the Truck and puts the center of mass closer to the rear wheels. Although the time of the development came in a time when government out regulated rear drive vehicles based on safety and fuel economy and weight. The Devs seeming to take this as the New Way for all vehicles, failed to research the real life model of this Vehicle. Which is the GMC Sonoma/Chevrolet S-10-SS Yr 2000-2004. ( SS for Super Sport). Some come with a 4 cyl. but Mine has a V-6 3.4 Liter, RWD. Even the 4cyl models are all rear wh drive. Mine is 24 yrs old, you barely tap the starter and it fires up every time, and even with it being choked by smog regulation, it still will lay rubber all the way down the street. I think LO would only be able to tweek some of the values like damage, because to make it rear wh drive, they would have to rewrite the whole vehicle. So I do appreciate the health buff

You have to consider the source. Most of these kids are ignorant to what the word respect is. But Ya, as one of very very few legit players, I only 'Play' to fook over those that don't belong. With a Non-existent Anti cheat, and most players either hate trolling legits and or exceeding the average score of the average hacker in the Pool. MM appears to be rigged because ya can't get missions without golds. So Ya, they are people who invaded the bronze district and ruined the game. So you play to screw them out of farming and anything you can. Beings they hate legit players so badly. So its not the game or tickets or anything normal you would think, that I play for. These low lifes have been in game ruining it for years, and allowed to do it. Escalation simply deprives grinders of xp, bringing you in late. Wastes your time. With unopposed missions turned off, you can only grind on the district that is full, and can't do anything in the other district. You have to wait. It would be nice if there was a setting to turn on or off back up missions. It's alright for a max rank but a grinder needs a fresh mission, you're not going to get the min score of i think 500 by coming in late. Anything lower than the 500 and you get zero progress on your contact. This is why car trolling a mission is so common, they know you're coming and have others waiting to crash into you from outside the mission. Then if ya get there some sweat wil tk ya. So in most cases you cant even trust your team mate.

worst part of the event, aside from the event itself, is the stupid basse sound made near pumpkins. Every year ya basically have to play on mute to not hear that sound
