We have a new hacker in our midst
We have a new hacker in our midst
I recently tracked down an IHM members trade route, this member was animal who flew a alien freighter, i could tell straight away he was hacking first of all, he took well over 15 counters i even restocked, returned and guess what he still took my extra 15 counters, secondly, i fired at him from a distance of 200 with a missle he then teleported forward to a distance of 600. He also vanished off my system twice (im guessing maybe log out and in). I wouldnt mind but i had 2 chances to kill him in which i should have done so but he hacked his way out and saved his cargo.
We do not need these kind of people in our game, and i suggest a temporary ban or reset just to cargo. We have had this once before with hunter and now this we need a strict rule against these people because it ruins the fun for others like myself.
I tracked that guy for a while noticed where he stopped (m-145) waited for him to arrive and then got nothing out of it. As you can imagine its rather annoying

ok, this is ridiculous, i'm sick of people picking on me, i've done nothing but trade since i started playing but all people want to do is blow me up
I was trading away happily when this baladin guy appears and fired missiles at me, I used a couple of counters then he just disapeared from the list of players, i started to fly away then his name appeared again, i was pretty laggy at the time and pretty steamed about having my hard earned cargo taken but then there was a bout of lag then i was way away from where i was and he was not on the list of players again, i was like "wtf" and stardrive away as soon as red alert cleared.
Maybe he was lagging, i know i was.
I don't even know or care if cheating is possible but please leave me alone, i'm just trying to play.
It's like there is a rule against new players progressing, it must be "hax"
I guess this is why there are so few players in this game

Don't be upset for losing cargo, I don't know about Baladin, but I'm a die hard pirate. That meaning that I shoot everything that has cargo. Unless it's water. If I get you, I hope you don't take it personally, life's a bitch.
Lag HAS been known to affect combat, it can even sometimes seem that the target is under some kind of....manipulation. Lag can even fool you to think that the target has invincible shields.
Heck bal, I've seen players suddenly be in one place, me shooting them, then suddenly they dissapear from my view. Lag, it's a bitch aswell.

Mishka think about it though, a alien freighter in red alert, manages to outrun a gal cruiser doing 150 and is only 200 distance away from it... while firing countless amounts of missles (he even restocked once). And the alien freighter JUST HAPPENS to move 400 metres forward as soon as i come into close range with it? You seriously think lag would work in favour of him like this? Everytime i get close he flies away?
Animal where did i say a noob getting better was hax? We have all lost our cargo at some point in the game, you shouldve lost your today but obviously you didnt want to give it away with ease and resorted to different measures. Thats fine you can keep your cargo but i know that this was no ordinary lag it was way too obvious to be, besides your in an alien freighter, there is nothing nooby about that anyway its one of the best ships in the game and if you wish to stay in this game then i suggest you watch how you go about in space and if i see anything else its getting reported.
And i wasnt picking on you, you just happened to be in a faction i was targetting at the time to see if you were as good as you mentioned in the forums. You have to realise that if you are in an enemy faction you will be targetted cargo or not.

so what you're basically saying is:
"BAWWWWWWW!!!!
my crappy computer lagged and I didn't get my own way as a result."
Also, regarding your "countless missiles"
I ran out of countermeasures pretty fast, hence why you damaged my ship and it is currently at about 70% so your whole argument about me magically avoiding all your missiles is as ridiculous as you are.
Ask other players, they have managed to blow me up and take my stuff, it's happened several times so it's not like I'm not used to it.
Stop whining and act like an adult.

Rofl my computer lagged, ok let me get this clear:
1. I played the universal for a whole year with alot of space fighting, do i know what is normal and what isnt ? Ofcourse. Can I tell lag from blatant hacking? Ofcourse
2. I have played against hackers before i know all the tricks in the book some of which you clearly used.
3. Dont accuse me of being a child and crying when i have every right to have my suspicions and would like to do my part in cracking down on hackers for the good of this game and its players.
Finally i said to you i have given you a warning if you dont want to take this warning as a gift and continue to whine ill report this to fooli and he will take matters into his own hands.
Frankly im not surprised these guys have been accused of hacking when there description is the 'intergalactic hate machine' the hate machine being a well known group of internet hackers (refer to google). But like i say youve been warned, as has hunter and other members.

You have given me a warning....
Are you a mod or something?
Please go ahead and report me as I know I am in the right, I know you're upset but that doesn't excuse your inability to accept what was on your part very bad luck. Yes if you hadn't lagged you would have gotten a tasty haul of cargo but you didn't did you?
It's a shame to see such a nice ship piloted by someone so childish
Edit:
Regarding my faction membership...
IHM accepted me into their ranks when i first started and gave the the encouragement and support that allowed me to recover from attacks and to venture further into space to explore and eventually find my current ship, call them what you want, they have been nothing but kind to me, they should be the Internet Love Machine.

Wow this noob doesnt give up, my warning is me reporting you to fooli, i just had a battle with cyborg no lag.
Seriously i have never lagged or will do while fighting in space and i have had many more battles than you, this case was very rare to me and only had i seen it before with a hacker, and calling me a child again? refer to my post before and stfu pls.
First off you turn on the 'im a noob please dont hurt me sympathy post' then you turn on the 'stop being a child and take it post' and frankly you and I both know that was no ordinary lag, lag does not 'make' you go faster in space, 3000 metres from our location 2800 metres away is me chasing you and you are only a distance of 200 metres from me you are in red alert doing about a speed of 20 something and im doing a speed of 158. To add to that i fired exactly 30 missles in that whole bout and you kept going?????
Outcome = You beat me to the planet
So seriously drop the act.
At least hunter had the nouce to own up to his wrongs and he has learnt his lesson.
This will be my last post in this thread as frankly ive said in another post that all the threads lately is nothing but bitching and i dont perticularly want to seem a hypocrite.
So ill end it here.

So because you don't lag consistently then it's impossible that you lagged at all?
Lag doesn't make someone go faster but for the person lagging it can look that way.
Yes, I'm a noob and I'm not looking for fights but that doesn't mean I'm going to sit quietly while you call me a cheater without a shred of proof (of which there can be none as I didn't cheat)
I'm glad you're done posting in this thread though, each post you made only made you look more like a child, which I will happily stop calling you since you are ceasing the childish act of throwing around baseless accusations.

what is this bullshit?
I happen to know Animal pretty well and I can tell you, no offense animal, that I'm surprised he's even able to get on the internet given his lacking computer skills, I think accusing someone like animal of hacking is on par with the Salem Witch Trials. Animal is no hacker, and rest assured I will strive to kill you on sight for making such slanderous claims, as I'm sure my IHM brethren will also do.
You're wrong, and that's all. you've provided no concrete evidence of anything. Big on claims, short on proofs. Anyone can go make a thread calling so-and-so a hacker. I happen to know Animal is clean a s a whistle, and that you're just butthurt because things didn't turn out like you would have liked. Lies and slander, prepare to die.
As I've said before, there are WAY too many whiners in this game. WAY too many. Saying somone cheated when you lose is usually something you get over by age five.

LOL damnit ive already killed hunter, cgaz, animal (ill call him 'the one that got away').
If i could see you in space you would be another my death list but unfortunately i was told you were in the system at the same time so the invisibility bug has struck once more. Consider it a blessing from god.
