I wouldn't be surprised if action is taken, but I don't think you can expect it to be taken while the game is going on. The mods might have to contact people if it is not an open and close case. Emailing the mods isn't always going to get an immediate response. They have lives too.

I agree that you have done the right thing in emailing the mods, but I don't think you can rightly criticize them for doing nothing

I got to agree with zultar, I havn't been on the site for long, but its starting to get more common that cheaters and multi's are ruining live games. Sadly I don’t have the luxury like zultar to play with trusted players, making these ruined live games all I can rely on. So hopefully something can be worked out to fix this.

Ok. If actions are taken to ban the cheaters here or to erase the record of that game or something, then that's great. I shall be content to follow the established guideline as I have done.
If nothing is done, then I am not going to report anymore. If the site is overrun with multiaccounters and metagamers and that kind of behavior is tolerated, then good luck.

@PnT, with your record, I'm pretty sure you'll be able to get in some good games and play with highly respectable players.

Fair enough. Its just so hard to catch multiaccounters in live games. I think action (bannings) usually happen, but after the fact, and you still have a defeat on your record. It sucks, trust me I know. But that I think is just going to happen when playing live games unfortunately (unless we start paying the mods enough for them to quit their day jobs...)

Im workin on it, in one of Eden's invite games. Hopeing a good showing will help out for future invites. But its frusterating that the only thing i have is a good record and the last few attempts at live games have been ridiclous with CDs and multis.

Maybe if/when the 150cc club gets going again things will be much easier. Lets hope so.

Ya, i have high hopes for that it sounds very promising. Hopefully i can find my way into that, defiently sounds like the set up id enjoy playing.

Me too.

I think you won't have any trouble getting in. And I also think that once summer is over (for the majority of us), people will get more into it.

Haha. Speaking of which I still need a sponsor for that.

Who are the people in them now, Tom? So I can go around and ask.

I just bumped the thread. There is a list of members as I think the first post. Also, I can sponsor you chenf if you need one.

Im in a invite game with a few of them, so hopefully i play well and get a sponsorship that way :) If not any time your looking for a player tom, let me know and ill gladly play.

Could we program a new variant, semi-anon games, instead of having to do it manually (which is basically an invite game)?
The list of all the players will be shown, but the identity of individual country is not shown. You wouldn't know who is who, but you would know everyone who is playing.

Haha okay. Thanks Tom. Where has Eden been lately?

I'll have to take you up on that sometime Pnt. Though I'm away for a few weeks, but when I get back, I'll shoot you a PM.

Thats a good idea zultar, but I don't imagine how hard it would be to code. You could always suggest it on the developers forum (which someone else would have to link you to as I don't know what the link is off the top of my head.)

Correction: "but I don't *know* how hard it would be to code"

Zultar. The mods are all volunteers here and deserve more respect than the shit I saw you fling just now like an angry monkey. I don't play live games for just the reason you describe but you should find 1 day plus games to be much more ethical in the Meta/multi area.

@Draugnar: What you said was fair. I shall not say anything more regarding this game. Regarding live games, there is something to be said for live games. Many of us enjoy the thrill and the stress of having to make decisions on your feet. I like to play both types of games, and meta/multi are unfortunately rampant in the live games.
There was a lot of frustration on my part, I'll admit, partly due to the cheaters in this particular game and partly due to the non-response I've gotten when I have been patient, going through the proper channel.
The mods are volunteers. I understand that and I thank them for it.

Might I suggest you join the live club? 150cc I believe it is called. I'm a member, although I don't play Mich, but they do passworded games that are much more reliable and ethical as no multis or metastasis can get in their games.

*metas, not metastasis.

I've actually just asked to be joined a few minutes ago.
If you could forgive my outburst, would you sponsor me for the club?

Metastasis sounds cool though. :)

Just did so when I saw the request in the club thread.

Do you know what the requirements are to become a mod?

To become a mod you have to have never asked about becoming a mod.

WAIT A MINUTE WHAT THE FUCK
