A List you don't want to end up on

What I would like to know is why, if their game ID numbers are known, they haven't had their entire Steam accounts closed? Why are they still able to play RO2 on servers without PB? Why are they still able to play on Steam at all?!

BTW to those saying steam does not ban whole accounts, they have and they will.

Few years ago they banned 10,000 accounts in one day. Mostly all people they had observed cheating in CSS. They have a different methodology with cheaters though, they let the cheats come out, they let all the cheaters get em, record the list of all the cheaters ( not just the early adopters ) and then ban them all later. It sucks for us the gamer, but it means that the maximum damage is done to the cheats ( by waiting they cannot inform eachother of a cheat being discovered ). I prefer this PBBan style as immediate punishment is much more effective when compared to delayed punishment.

edit:

it is not cs its red orchestra and they will not ban the other games that dont use the same engine how many times do i need to say that.

so more than likely only red orc 2 will be banned on there steam account and there other games will be fine

so they will just register another steam account and hack again . most theyll lose is price of a key or nothing if subscribed to a cheat site for paid hacks as theyll get another red orc for nothing for being caught. most cheat sites do this now because of the fee they pay monthly to keep you there.

this is why pb and so on need to wake up and get with the times and do something more upto date or better quicker.

if you banned for hacking you shouldnt be allowed to go on again even with a new key or game that would killalot of sites like the paid ones.

edit:

does PB still do any kind of MAC address bans? ( AKA hardware bans )

I haven't seen a lot of blatant cheating yet. Occasional, but rare. Last night I was playing on a server that had the death cam on. I got shot by some guy who was in a building. I was outside. He shot me through a brick wall on a side of the building with no window. Amazing he knew I was there. It was even more amazing that I noticed when I was watching others from my team that they got shot by the same guy through a wall, and they were spread out.

Was on the [Brothers] server last night and some ar$ehole racked up 87 kills in 10 mins. Ruined a good server since the Brothers clearly are not streaming,

Psychology is one of my main interests in life. Most likely, people who use aimbots and the like are motivated by either of the following (in no particular order)

1. To express aggression to others. It ruins others games and this may give pleasure (think bullies being sadistic in watching their victim tormented).

2. Power. Over others. Can do what the others cannot. Can ruin their game if they want. Kill them through a wall. A bit like a virtual person with supernatural powers. "You use cheap tactics on me? MKb42 harlot?! I'll teach you a lesson, you skank".

3. Prestige (social status) that comes with being seen as a person with such supreme skills. Narcissistic type - even though it is totally phoney and not something they earned, they may believe that they are awesome enough to have properly earned the glory that such super skills would imply. Most people aren't able to do this, since they can't cheat themselves that easily. Many gamers, especially competitive ones, are deeply impressed by, admire and envy highly skilled gamers. Hell, I remember the buzz around the number one player in Company of Heroes. That guy had (genuinely) genius abilities regarding Real Time Strategy games. And people treated him like some kind of movie star.

4. Cynical, paranoid types may assume that everyone else already does the same thing, (or would if they knew how). They see such things as acceptable behaviour as "everyone can do it". You may have come across people expressing the opinion that using exploits in the maps and bugs of the game is perfectly fine because anyone can use it equally. Same line of thinking.
