REPORT A SUSPECT:

Reporting someone you suspect of cheating is easy. Just fill out the form. We will simply look at available data to see if your suspicions are founded or not. We are particularly interested in cheats who dominate during a game as they affect the most people but we are also very interested in people who don't really do very well, even with the help of a cheat.

If our data supports your claim, we will investigate the individual further with the goal of either clearing their name or getting the necessary information to ban the individual.

Please be honest in your assessment of the suspect and, do not to waste our time with unfounded claims.

REPORT:
These questions are designed to help you become more aware of the information you can collect and what kind of server you should be playing on. We will be surprised if you can answer all of them. Just fill in what you can.

IF YOU SUSPECT SOMEONE IS CHEATING:
1) If you suspect someone report it to the server’s administration with the player’s name, server IP, and time they played.

2) If you have SS and/or video, submit it to us using the link on the with the above information and we’ll add it to our database and look into your case. XFire is developing a great new video capture component which makes it easy to upload and share video. All you have to do is bind 2 keys on your keyboard to shoot some video. Be sure to try it out and become comfortable with its use. Also, many games support recording a 'demo' by typing in the console /record (playername) and hit enter on the keyboard. Type in /stoprecord and hit enter to end the recording.

3) Whatever you do, do not reveal your suspicions to the public. That means, do not post the individuals name in a public forum, instead use PM (private messages). Also, do not confront the individual during game play except to report it to an admin if they're online playing too, and if you do, try and make it as private a conversation as possible, like ask the admin to come to spec.

4) During a game if you have a strong belief that a player is cheating, stop playing, go to spec to capture some video or go to another server. If you continue to play you are condoning the cheats methods. Do not be a part of a cheaters party.... leave.

5) Learn what it takes to be a good and fair administrator and become a part of your clan's administration so that you can help catch cheats, submit their PBSS (Punk Buster Screen Shots) in order to get their name on a permanent ban list.

6) Finally, there are many great services in the Anti-Cheat effort. Go to our links section and check them out. Find out how you can support them including making a donation.

Cheat Definitions:

Aimbot: inhumanly fast turns that always end with crosshairs targeting an opponent's head or body with autofire kills.

AutoFire/Auto-Clicker: used to speed up repetitive input procedures like firing ones pistol.

ESP: While wallhacking usually reveals the entire player model to the cheater, ESP tends to only reveal textual information(such as health or name) as well as the position and/or orientation of the target.

Glow Hack: makes the enemy glow either in a bright color or, just brigher than usual compared to the surroundings, making it easier to see someone in the shadows.

Lockbot/AutoAim: like an AimBot without auto-fire turned on, in other words, the person will turn towards you quickly but not fire right away.

Multi-hack: use of multiple cheats at the same time.

No Fog/Smoke: allows one to see the enemy who might think they're protected by fog or smoke.

No Foilage: allows one to see the enemy who might think they're protected by leaves, grass, ivy, etc.

No-Recoil: allow a person to fire without the rifle jumping up or moving around. It can also result in all the bullets going straight rather than spreading out. Fairly obvious if shot at a long distance and all the bullets land.

Speed Hack: allows a person to run faster making them a harder target to hit and allowing them to get into position faster.

Spinbot: can cause the player model to spin at a extremely fast rate causing a disturbance to the hitboxs and a distraction to other players; the player using it can see as normal from his/her screen.

Wallhack: Most wallhacks are used to make a map's walls at least partially transparent.
