About HackHunters
HackHunters is a place where the ordinary gamer can become part of the Anti-Cheat and Anti-Bullying solution by just signing up and thus showing support. HackHunters was formed by a group of gamers interested in curtailing online cheating and thus bullying behavior by exploring different methods to tackle the problem. These include: 1) Looking at servers who protect cheaters with the understanding that there are a lot less servers to look at than players. 2) Encourageing servers to be pro-active in the fight, or if they choose to allow cheating, to display a message warning unsuspecting gamers. 3) Other methods include looking at the subtleties of cheating as cheaters have 'gone underground' for the most part in hiding their mischievous behavior. 4) Developing our BlackBox technology. We help Clan Administrators set up their communities so that they are best protected from cheaters. On the other side of the coin, HackHunters will be helping good clans become stronger communities, and, encouraging honest players to visit those communities. We will be encouraging all servers to turn on the KillCam feature as well as allow all gamers to spec other players. It is these 2 aspects that most readily roots out cheaters and those with a bad attitude in the first place. We will fully support other efforts like PunkBuster, Anti Cheat Inc., The Cheat Police, AON, PBBans, PunksBusted, BustedPunks, RespectedAdmins, AdminRequest, Sigurd and others by helping people learn how to use these services. Part of our mission is to share our ideas with them so that they may become stronger, and, in our brainstorming forum, ideas may be taken freely by any service with only an acknowledgement of their source to help us continue our mission. |
The established services that provide Master Ban Lists operate under strict guidelines, as they should, using the technology they have available and are developing. We approach discovering hackers from a different point of view so as to tackle cheating from 'both sides' in what amounts to an axe and anvil approach. Our goal is to work with game manufacturers, anti-cheat services and service providers to paint an accurate picture of all servers and players who engage in online gaming. -HackHunters- will be the end of the road for any and all who cheat. If they want to 'game' we only hope they have a copy of PacMan available as a diversion until they realise that their only option is to game clean. It's as simple as BLACK and WHITE, Don't HACK! Lest you be a fool, don't even download cheats. Even if you don't use them, they can contain trogans, but that's not the worst part... many AntiCheat Organizations can see artifacts of cheat programs on your computer, even if you've deleted everything, which can lead to banning. Also, many cheat sites will promise you the world but only present you with your own empty wallet. Be careful who you trust... are you really foolish enough to trust someone who cheats for a living? |
CHEATERS & BULLIES ARE A SCOURGE: Why are we on this quest? There are many reasons, but here are a few:
• Cheaters think they are technically superior to others that they deserve the extra advantage just because they think they're smart enough to get away with it. Ultimately, those who cheat are cheating themselves out of a better life and cheating society out of a positive role model. HackHunters combines the fun of online video gaming with sound principles of discipline, courage, honesty.
