Should alt-ing be controlled in some way?

    So you'd have to set what account is your main. What about crashing, logging out, camping someone's logger etc.

    Its certainly possible to detect if a player is in an area - For example, the boss bar knows when your in a certain place as it displays the place name in the boss bar. Then teleporting to coords, above ground - thats simple stuff.

    Or, it just happens to everyones accounts, not just alts.

    So you could just log when someone comes, log back in and you're outside of the base. Easy escape?

    I have an idea. How about when you log out at a rebel base, you leave behind a logger that doesn't go away.

    Welp, now that's a huge flaw in the fix, whoops.
    Would it fix it if a player was recently in combat, it would bypass the teleporting out of the base for a certain long amounts of time?
    The more I think about fixing this issue, it gets more complicated for a simple exploit people do just to achieve something better than others for silly but stupid ways to feel good. :l

    Ok, they have a command called /alt - That just checks the IP of a player and checks other players that have used that IP. How about you can't log on an alt within 2 minutes of another account (alt/main) being online?

    ./alts is just a basic IP-Check

    There is no way to fix this since people are playing with family members.

    I know, what I was saying was its possible to block other alts logging on within 2 minutes of another account using that IP being online.

    No, you just don't want it fixed cause you the biggest abuser of it.

    Kek, don't complain, it's normal, you know the part I hate? A sheriff alt processing wg, right after he lose on his bandit account, I noticed his sheriff account was 100 outside the base while I was looting the body, within 30 seconds his alt died. I got arrested

    Limiting someone who spent a lot of money to win at a game is a dick move. On top of that they aren't really breaking any rules doing so (unless they are perma banned), so I don't see an issue w/ it.

    I see... so:
    People with alts - HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY!
    People without - This is unfair, and bloody miserable.

    We're trying to change the rules (on wildwest).

    Thats part of the solution as well. All alt-ing needs to have some way of being controlled.

    Can we make an effort to ban the people blatantly using tracers and x-ray?
    C'mon we all know who they are and it ruins the game completely.

    Yesterday, I log on. I go to wildgrass, and shift the whole time out of render. When I get within Wild West render distance, I see Killer_Kameron's name unshifted. I also see mauser_C96. Seconds after, Killer_Kameron starts shifting, and soon after that, Joker mysteriously TP's in to the base. I wonder why, maybe because there was a full diamond enemy nearby, and Kameron didn't trust his own 'skill' to take me on, even with mauser there. (This whole time I had been shifting). They instantly run down the ladder when Joker gets there, and chase me. I am not usually one to accuse of hacks, but we all know about Joker's tracers ban, not to mention that he literally flies around and uses kill aura on the practice server. I actually don't know if Joker is using hacks on Brawl at the moment, so I am not accusing him, although I do have my suspicions. However Kameron on the other hand... Not only did his dad expose that he was using Huzuni in a TeamSpeak channel, but he LITERALLY uploaded a picture of him using full bright to the forums! smh, these hackers ruin the game more than alters do. There are many others that use hacks, but there is no point in naming them all.

    mk, that is my small rant.

    You should know that tracers are hard to detect unless a Mod is watching them constantly.

    That is exactly what I am suggesting
    well not watching them always, but set up some tricks to test if they are using tracers or not sometimes

    18kss watched Joker for a whole fight and then banned him for tracers. But then he had to unban him because you can't ban fro tracers since there is F3+a (its an easy excuse)

    Actually, Joker bought the unban. (I think?)
    He wasn't unbanned because 18kss was in a TeamSpeak channel with Joker, and Joker was talking about his hacks in the channel.
