Re: Suspicious scores thread
I remember when I had responsibility of this thread three years ago and there were over 100 scores on the OP...
...good times, lol. Seriously though, it shouldn't be too hard to keep the OP updated considering that hacked scores don't happen too often. It isn't exactly the staff's responsibility to murk through a thread to find the problem when the users have the power to appropriately mark them as cheated on the first post, haha. In any case, I can help out and compile all of the scores still hacked if you need it, Roy. EDIT: holy christ, I didn't give myself enough credit - there were 213 scores on that OP before I stopped updating, lmfao. Last edited by TC_Halogen; 01-5-2013 at 04:09 PM.. |

Re: Suspicious scores thread
The problem is that for the past 20 pages we've basically been doing stuff along the way and not going by the OP, which is why it was surprising all of a sudden the OP issue is mentioned.
On another note, Jack Wolf back from page 3 has 5 FGO AAAs and looks like an alt, I don't know who though. I'll continue getting more stuff from the past pages. |

Re: Suspicious scores thread
I think Dossar's way of doing it was to directly ask staff members to deal with the suspicious users, rather than making them check the topic periodically. Considering that, it makes sense he wouldn't bother with updating the first post. Kayla's way of doing it is different but that doesn't mean either is wrong, they have just separately chosen different ways of doing things and neither can read the other's mind. Don't make this out to be some kind of big debate - you two just need to communicate about what you expect.
@Zapmeister: If you "don't see the point of taking the game seriously" then why bother playing at all? Why did you get all those FCs? Why would you care if you get blacklisted or not? You're only lying to yourself, really. And all that mashing, and lack of even attempting to get legitimate scores, is what makes you unable to AAA Spontaneous Hydroxide. It's 100% your own fault. And nobody wants a replay of the token AAA, they want proof that you have the skill to do it (as opposed to getting someone else to play on your account or something like that). It's certainly true that none of your OTHER scores show you have that kind of skill - and if I had to bet on it, not having seen the AAA, I'd happily bet that you don't.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
Well I don't know which staff members he contacted directly but it wasn't me and I haven't really seen score wipes happening.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
You're taking stuff too personally IMO. Someone else is in charge of this, and maybe they aren't doing what they're supposed to - I don't know. But if someone is criticizing them you shouldn't feel personally attacked/blamed just because you are both on staff. If you want to suddenly take on the responsibility yourself and fix it, that's great, but don't come out of the gate angry that it isn't being done the way you expected. That just makes it worse.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
Both on staff? Also who said I was angry/taking things personally? I brought up that an update hasn't been done because there's complaints of scores not being taken care of. I don't see record in the last few months of scores being wiped from the logs I looked at so yeah I'm curious to know who he talked to about it.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
Dont think the OP not being updated is a good excuse for something not being done. If you are staff you are on the site actively enough to where it shouldnt be hard opening the thread when there are new posts or skimming through a couple pages in the thread. If that process is too hard for you then you clearly do not deserve to be staff.

I should probably note that Dom was the one to handle the actual wiping of scores previously but is away for work.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
You and whoever who was supposed to blacklist people.
That's how it looks from your posts here, honestly. Maybe you meant to be neutral but it came out accusatory and unfriendly - all I can say then is, try to be more diplomatic. This is exactly what I mean - it's not your responsibility, you don't have enough access to do it, so it's not your problem. Don't worry if it isn't getting done.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
I guess none of us on staff should be staff then because we all have outside responsibilities.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
why don't we stick to accusing cheaters, not other quality members or staff?

Re: Suspicious scores thread
Good idea. Once the accounts/proofs are updated I can eliminate some of these people off the scoreboard. Just let me know because I'm going to be working on some class stuff for a bit.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
DD_Halogen: Obvious alt, requesting wipe. You dont need an alt in order to see how well you play downscroll/improving your downscroll skills. Stop messing with the ranks.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
As retarded as I thought this was after a fast read, I actually think it's true. The scores you've been getting with that account are good enough to make many great players go down in the rankings.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
There is no rule against alt accounts especially while playing another style.

Re: Suspicious scores thread
There's no rules against alternate accounts and I'm playing on a different style, this is complete horseshit. I don't care that my scores are good enough to "move players down in the rankings", I busted my ASS to get good at downscroll play. In the span of five months, I went from D3 to nearly D6 and now I get rewarded with a scorewipe simply because I want to keep track of my progress?
This is completely asinine. Last edited by TC_Halogen; 01-6-2013 at 09:18 PM.. |
