    Disclaimer: not sure if I posted this in the right section
    Ever since I started playing Mc-War, I've been listening to hackusations. Lots of them. Normally, these accusations of usage of third-party modifications are thrown around by newbs, typically under lv. 12, who are unfamiliar with the game mechanics. This is, in my opinion, totally reasonable and I take pride in explaining that no, I did not just reach through a wall, I used C4. Or no, I'm not hacking your graphics, I'm launching an EMP. And of course I didn't just hack a shotgun into oneinchamber, I'm using what you call an Executioner.
    But when it's not an issue involving me, but I still want to meddle (because nobody else is taking the time to do so) I'll just inform them of the anti-cheat that does a pretty good job of stopping most hacks on the server.
    However, in recent weeks I've noticed a surge of Prestige (lv. 31+) players making poorly based hackusations. I find this quite odd as after playing for however long it takes to get to level 30 or 40, wouldn't said player realize that a hack is merely a lag spike, a glitch, or well placed C4? No. Not really. It didn't used to be this way; only weeks ago, a Prestige player would be scorned for making such a presumably idiotic remark. Not anymore: now, no matter how illogical or out of character, my fellow lv. 31+ players are blatantly accusing others of hacking in situations where there are numerous simple game mechanics that could have caused the phenomenon. Yet what really irks me is the fact that you can't reason with them. A poorly informed yet experienced player is, in my history of debate, much more stubborn and prone to belligerent rage than a poorly informed newcomer to the server.
    So yeah, that's about all I have to say.

    They're just mad that they lost their kill streak.

    Maybe these prestige hackusers(I think I made that word up) are just noobs who bought xp. Or they are players who have never played with players that have c4 or are good enough to emp.

    The older the server gets, the more "noobs" or uneducated players will reach the 31+ level.

    Noobs that can't let people enjoy the game... so they must complain about hackers who are not even hackers. Internet logic.

    The server has been up for more than a year, everyone has had plenty of time to level up to the high levels while still being hackusators. Or they just are cheap and donate for there levels.

    I used to be the biggest hackusator on the server, other than TrevorSleeping. I've changed though, I don't usually call hacks anymore unless I'm in a seriously bad mood. I was just on server 10 yesterday, and I nuked 4 games in a row and won an ffa, then 7 or 8 level 31- "noobs" shouted hacks at me. What was surprising, those "noobs" got 6 or 7 level 31+ players to agree with them. Then I had half the server calling me a hacker. Mokolee's right guys! Just take the hack shouts this way: they're calling you good! Let it soothe your soul. :rolling_eyes:

    Last night, i was on server 5. Server 5 is the clan HACK home server. As a member of HACK, i was called a hacker just because i headshotted a guy w/ L118a across the mao Wildwest. They complainabout the side HACK is on always win. They need to face the truth that a clan with good players will win. Also they need to realizen that like in call of duty, you willl get the worst guns until you lvl up. Mc war isnt a server inwhich everybody hacks. Its the skill and weapons of a player that determine the out come. To all noobs: People dont hack, its skill and weapons. When people call eachother iso noobs, thats not entirely true. The iso has that power and it takes quite some skill to be an accurate sniper. Snipers are intended to hit the enemy from a distance to create havox on the battlefield. In this case, the camping snipers are just doing what irlnsnipers would do: cause havoc and casualities on the enemy. To sum this up, it takes skill and tactics to get high kill streaks. Please dont go around calling skilled players noobs.

    These people just never quit, even when they learn. You just gotta keep your d*ck dry and ignore them.

    ...Ignoring that, I've been accused of hacks many times, and I just take it as a compliment really. I mean, if someone thinks I'm too good to be legit that's an honor I gladly take. I just say "OH STOP IT, YOU!" and confuse the **** outta them.

    I really just ignore the hackusations, unless the accuser persists. Then I explain how whatever they think I did is possible, and they don't listen. Happens all the time. I really take it as a compliment.

    Agreed. Im not the best when it comes to getting high kill streaks. Instead, i go for a good kdr over a bad kdr but with lots of kills.Back on topic: It makes me smile to see noobs call me a 'hacker' because it show how dumb they not to look onnthe forums for help.I suffested for noobs to go on the forums many times. They just ignore me because they think they are too good to not have to get help when they seriously are terrible at the game.

    The only REAL "hacker" I've ever seen in my entire career on MCB is troyserra1 and his alts. Knowing that true hackers are more rare than eclipses, I usually encourage reporting, so I say:
    "Report me here: https://www.brawl.com/forums"
    (I can't use the direct rulerbreaker URL because the advertising plugin blocks websites that don't include MCB's name)

    I honestly don't see why you're complaining about prestiges calling hacks on you. It means they're unintentionally calling you a pro and they can't handle your killing might.

    Oh you should know that prestige members are not the nice guys and all of that, most if their time their plain stupid, raging or being immature and I hope all known members of the mc-war community don't shout out hacks every time ( except Trevor :V ) they get killed

    I do the same thing. People are always accusing me of hacks. When that happens, I just say "thank you"
    Also, you can tell who is mature and who is not by seeing who shouts "HAX" and "OMG NOOBS" the most.

    They are just jealous and they have no experience of the server whatsoever and refuse to believe what the other party says because they have no knowledge.
    USE YOUR LOGIC=PROBLEM SOLVED
    I love how the screenshot has a part of the chat saying "My name is Marcus."
