moxxichixx 148 Posted December 1, 2018 If a hacker name change, does it mean we have to gather proofs all over again or Little Orbit can manage to track an account without the name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheJellyGoo 343 Posted December 1, 2018 Sorry, it will be forever lost in anonymity. That's why it's also very common to purchase hundred of thousands of G1C and charge back before a name change. This way they cannot link it to the old one since there is no unique ID assigned to an account in the database. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VickyFox 353 Posted December 1, 2018 One would of hope little Orbit keeps a record of name changes as well as Armas purchases. If so then rule breaking could be traced back if Customer support are not too busy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiida 455 Posted December 1, 2018 G1 could track scammers through name changes so I'm LO can do the same for cheaters and otherwise too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fortune Runner 796 Posted December 2, 2018 I believe the OP's post is just a question in general and not about a specific person With the current engine and code base setup I do not believe th4ey can trace properly After a few updates to new coding they can change that if it does not however. Either way I do not know for sure what the current engine and coding does in this matter so this is the best answer I can give. It would take an answer from Little Orbit staff on the coding to answer properly on what currently happens but that also isn't a good idea since it can be an exploit if it is true. Still traceable to some extent since chars are tied to accounts though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jazeker 1082 Posted December 2, 2018 For even better trolling the cheater who made a mistake and got recorded changes his name and then recreates the old name on a dummy account. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly would be a good argument for IP bans or making APB a pay to play game unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
