Sneaky Monkeys Forum _ Bans and Ban Appeals _ Cheating - player report

Evidence:
Using big char cheat to kill king, notice the floating arrows in Kings head:

Here you can clearly see its Pizdarez. King perspective, here you can see he accidentally shoots an archer due to the cheat enlarging all enemies. Notice the blood splatter above the archers head:

NOTE! This one is on Officials, here you can see the cheat more clearly (same player):

Here is his first account he got a gameban on:

A little complaint, not to discredit any SM admins, rather a frustration of mine when trying to remove a cheater. I knew Pizdarez was a cheater since I had to ban him from Officials as well, he uses multiple accounts/IPs to evade his bans. Upon noticing Pizdarez joined the server I informed present admin that he was a cheater. We also tried to votekick him twice but since most players don't recognize cheaters the vote failed. I'd surely expect an admin to at least spectate the accused player so he could either remove the cheater or to confirm the accused player was not cheating. It would have saved me time from reporting him here and the cheater would not have been able to play an entire match with cheats. He left on his own instead of an admin banning him immediately.

My apologies if I sound a bit frustrated but it's not the first time I see players cheat while admins are present and they get away with it.

Thanks for the report. I perma banned him. His other account was also perma-banned about a year ago.

I can't speak for the others, but I always take the cheat reports with a grain of salt. A lot of times players accuse each other of cheating when they get beaten badly. Some count the reverses (and even the drags!) as cheating. Sometimes it gets very frustrating to go and spec somebody like that instead of just playing.

Another problem is, that if they suspect that an admin is spectating them they tend to behave. Like turning off their cheats or not using exploits or not attacking their team.

Both these mean that often admins have to spectate somebody just to make them behave. And while this fixes the problem, it's only temporary. And in the mean time the admin can't play.

Hey. Firstly, I want to thank you for your recent reports, you’re being really vigilant and helpful!

Secondly, I agree with Robin and I’d like to add that it is sometimes difficult to determine whether someone is hacking or not by spectating. Some perhaps don’t make it too obvious but I always try to spectate when a player is being accused or if I suspect them myself.

I’ve felt at times that Pizdarez plays really really sus. Then when I’d go spectate without announcing he’d start messing around not playing.

The day before yesterday I perma banned one of his accounts for being toxic to players and admins:

I guess sooner or later karma catches up to such people. Or they cannot resist being assholes and dig their own grave xD
