| Heh, if it was Canada... Guess how many parties need to be aware of a conversation being recorded? One. The other party does not have to consent. Still legal. |

| Well, if anyone says they'll "see you in court in 2 weeks", you know they aren't serious. Usually takes about 2 years to get into a court. Shit's not like walking to Wal-Mart. |

Yes, definitely map hacking. Knows where your army and pylons are through the fog of war at all times and looks through your base several times. |

Since he was on the clan, do you know how old he is? It's really hard to believe that he is anything older than 11.
I believe his team LG profile says that he is 17 and from Florida. Not surprised at these kinds of threats.Last edit: 2012-06-03 05:04:31 |

I kept reading this thread thinking lightpwner sounded familiar, and I realized this kid messaged me once about joining my HSL team since we live in the same area. Him being 17 sounds about right since he told me he was in 10th grade, he seemed pretty normal back then though. He was low masters when we spoke (a few months ago) so I guess he must've lost it sometime between when I spoke to him and when he started maphacking.

Considering that is tied to his real name etc I would say he is most assuredly not the brightest. Mods: not posting 'personal info' but but it isn't exactly private info, lol.Last edit: 2012-06-03 05:53:18 |

Too low master, but I suggest you report via the in-game system and via email at hacks@blizzard to have him banned eventually Thanks for the report |

This is a great effort by everyone and I hate to be a downer, but there are always going to be hacks and losers who use them. Unless Blizzard comes up with some sort of anti-hack launcher or something, the "report someone who is hacking" method is way too slow and takes way too much man-power to enforce effectively when you are talking about hundreds of thousands of gamers.
We could at least maybe try to police the GM ladder though I guess. |

Venasaur (lightpwnr) vs THORZAIN http://drop.sc/190334 This is honestly no fair. This guys facing thorzain on B net ladder and hes sending his first overlord to his natural? What a freaking joke.Last edit: 2012-06-03 11:06:53 |

| So I spoke to lightpwner (Venasaur) and he denies he ever maphacked. He also mentioned he's in the process of joining a new team and trying to decide between Habitat or NMx. Guess he was lying about quitting. Someone who knows the leader of either of these teams should probably let them know. |

He doesnt qualify for NMx A team and I'm sure B team wouldn't take him |

Watched the replay and while he didnt scout much, not sending the overlord to the opponents side could be because he doesnt want thorzain to kill it with a barracks lift. The replay really shows nothing. |

The thing is hacks will always exist. I am from a little quake 3 community back in day, and what worked for us was a BAN FOR LIFE policy, no mercy to any hacker, admins shared ips ban list, and a public list of hackers was available. your whole reputation as a player got destroyed and this was effective as a warning for everyone else.
Thats why i think a subforum for reporting hackers should exist, it doenst matter if blizzard takes ages in banning them, it could help potential hackers to think twice before they risk to be banned from the comunnity for life and be on the wall of shame forever.

Yes hacks will always exist and that is fine. Steroids will always exist in MLB too; what is important is that we continue to allow neither to be used in a competitive environment. People's livelihoods are at stake here and while we may never really be able to stop or prevent all hackers and cheaters, we must take whatever measures we can as a community, regardless of ineffectiveness or inefficiency, to limit and deter it - the single most dangerous thing that can happen in esports is for the community to turn a blind eye and allow these things to undermine the legitimacy of what we love.
However unwinnable the fight may be, things like this thread are of the utmost importance. |

| I still don't understand the point of map hacking for Starcraft II. What kind of advantage does it give over good scouting? Can't you figure out every little thing the enemy player does by good scouting? IE Overlord speed, scans, multiple observers. |

You get MULES instead of scans. Its fairly easy to deny OL scout in midgame. You know whatever build your opponent is doing and can always pick the perfect counter to it. |

Are you being serious or trying to sound like a good player? No player no matter how strong can see everything all the time. A maphack is such a ridiculous advantage I'm having trouble believing that it needs to be explained to anybody. |
