Fortune Runner 796 Posted January 9, 2019 I doubt any GM will ban over the description you gave due to one very important reason It may be a troll and not a hacker which would cause problems Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know who ray taylor is? That guy is the reason why LO got so many mails jus cuz of reporting cheaters with video proof's like this one for instance. Imagine giving a GM the powers which you say about. Put yourself in the position of the GM and imagine 25 players whispering you all at once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fortune Runner 796 Posted January 9, 2019 that video still makes me cringe as "proof" I don't want to comment further it would come off as salty or worse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ohshii 215 Posted January 9, 2019 This is why GM's and moderators always seem to not be around. They're busy moderating stupid patootie trash threads and talking to fucking morons in-game rather than doing actual productive work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TzickyT 212 Posted January 9, 2019 tbh i would love to see gm's online playing but understanding how the game is now i would suggest that they just work on what they are busy. it wil probebly help the game in the long run more than focus on unneeded whispers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wHisHi 206 Posted January 9, 2019 I agree that atleast one GM should be always online. Because there are obv hackers that are for instance using speedhack. One that we had 3 days ago. GM can come to district and clearly see hacker + record video. So higher authorities can ban him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Put yourself in the position of the GM and imagine 25 players whispering you all at once. imagine playing in bronze and still hackusating everyone btt: they already have monitoring and reporting active. however, obviously the reaction time is limited by the count of mods - we have roughly 500 players active at all times and judging from the amount i've been hackusated... you'd probably need 100 gms at any time to deal with the flood of reports, if they were to immediately react to them. obviously not feasible. even 10 gms per server and 8 hour shifts would be a lot to employ and monitor - since they are also only human then the monitoring times: since they can't outright ban unless it is a shawcopter or speedhacker, they might have to watch for 5, 10, 15 or even more minutes, when it's just slightly fishy. they can't also do multiple reports at once etc also: the connection times. unless you have like 3 gms per district, they'd have to jump between districts a lot. which means quite some periods of inactivity, since they load quite slow... and so on. this is also linked to number of mods etc. i doubt apb is profitable rn - and even in profitable games you barely see gms, as good ones are quite expensive and rare. they are also not even chatting anymore (much), as atleast lixil said that they were invisible for now Edited January 9, 2019 by neophobia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yood 345 Posted January 9, 2019 The GM should not have the right to ban anyone, there will be many false prohibitions and abuses . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlatMan 711 Posted January 9, 2019 Please don't give GMs ban power. We all saw how well that worked out for G1. LO don't even trust FF, how could they trust a human? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
