Matchmaking has been a blessing and a curse

Well I have no intentions of finding their personal information quite the opposite I want to avoid these people at all costs.

Yea there is a review process when a report is submitted. They’re not automatically guilty by default. Evidence is required and must have 100% proof of cheating. These days you can pretty much easily capture gameplay footage through demos t

I mean I’m sure it’s possible just not the right people for it. There is a diverse set of people not necessarily technical. There is a systemic cheat issue and just type “cheat” in r/cs2 or r/globaloffensive. I have an ifttt that

Well I don’t expect the average gamer to know about these things. I was talking from the perspective of services that offer the ability for you to spin up servers in the context of Counter-Strike. Popflash is one of those services and you c

The service is owned by the Saudis…and in the Counter-Strike world there was a company called ESEA that is now owned by the same group and being merged into the FACEIT system. Well, esea was doing some nefarious bitcoin mining on people’s c

I played Counter Strike Source and that community experience is one of the drivers for my idea. I want to build a community that you can see as “friends” and people you can trust. From my experience it’s a bit of a logistical nightmare to o

All good I appreciate you voicing your opinion. I’m not 100% sold either but it’s worth a shot and I’m a new Dad so have had time on my hands and wanted to build something. Dealing with cheaters is also time consuming and frustrating. Hope

These are all good points and I think you’re right. I’ll most likely get rid of smurfs and throwers as a report since it makes sense the grey area.

Yes that’s a good question and something I’ll take into account when reviewing. TBH these reports are all the obvious ones. Like straight up aim lock or spinning. I basically just took people queuing with them because they 100% know they’r

lol I watched a documentary on that guy not too long ago. There’s competition for everything…

Right now not much. If you do play Counter-Strike you could use it to cross check and give yourself sanity. In my post I mentioned a matchmaking service. So having this database will serve as a filter to prevent having to play with these to

Most pros have aim around 90. Anything going over 95 is absurd and highly unlikely. Some of the matches end up being “head v head” or HvH where it’s all hackers and so may the best cheat win. A bit of this is contextual. Also a lot of cheat

All the boosts had queued with cheaters. I do agree though that this could have false-positives. Right now anyone marked as guilty a moderator had went through and looked at stats or a demo if not sure. Which boosted ones looks skeptical to
