    1) Record a demo. This should always be your first step. Go into spectate and record the player in question.
    2) Alert an Admin or Manager. A LSA Clan Member can only Kick/Mute/Gag. They can not Ban Hackers.
    3) DO NOT start talking about how the Hacker is going to get banned when an Admin shows up. Don't taunt the Hacker. Don't tease the Hacker. Don't put it in that there about to get banned. Don't post their name in the D-Sock for all the servers to see. That alerts the Hacker that there is an Admin on the way, and they will stop doing what they are doing or just leave the server, only to come back another day to do it all over again.

    (I put that in there twice because it's important, and some of you lot have a very hard time keeping your traps shut. You know who you are. )

    Bump again, due to recent stuff.

    I should also add, if there is a hacker, three+ clan members squabbling when there's a server admin/manager around to deal with the situation, please just let the manager/server admin deal with it! Makes our jubs more bearable.

    How do we know we've done good?

     
  10. I was kicked/banned for no apparent reason ... from orange x3... (IGN) Scootaloo
     
  11. nlspeed Rex Omnium Imperarum

    That may be so, but you should write up an appeal here then, per the rules lined out here, ok?

    Good luck, by the way!

    *bump*

    Can I please stress record a demo before alerting an admin over DSock. If you go straight to alerting an admin, I ain't going to get in the server in time to record my own demo and the hacker then leaves.

    Record a demo before alerting an admin over DSock.

    I'm going to bump this thread, specifically for @LazyOne

    Read Step #1 a couple of times.

    If you suspect a hacker, record a demo.
