Oh... :) This is the game with a client-server model, right? Then why the hell server don't check all these things? Or at least players coordinates? They knew that the game will be hacked! But they did nothing or just not enough. And all these right after ESO bot-fest in 2014... :rolleyes:

The reason why support "takes too long" is too many people thinking they don't need to use authenticators, and then they slowly ruin the game for themselves and for the rest of us. Time to get with the times perhaps? Bots/hackers are only going to get more widespread and easier to use, unless we as end-users put a large wall ahead of them. Change your password, add the authenticator, update your ticket with this info, so they know it was you.

It's difficult to detect outside of being pointed toward the hackers by player reports. The information for a player teleport hacking would appear similar to many of the other things in the game that legitimately move players around. Part of what Carbine is doing right now is working on methods to catch the hacking tools before they can actually be used or to accurately detect them when they are. It's a long-run process and they've already made significant progress in solving.

Due to client-side position reporting and the nature of the movement system in W*, such a detection system is impractical until Carbine can more accurately determine the signature characteristics of a player using the teleport hacks; and to be clear they are teleport hacking, not speed hacking. (unless you're talking about some particularly anomalous incidents that have been reported in pvp battlegrounds)

She is not alone. My dad got to level 25 with his first character and woke up one morning 10 days ago to find out his account was banned. After waiting for 10 days he finally receives a proper response and it mentions the following: I have reviewed the details of the action you have appealed, as well as any past actions on your account. After careful consideration of the information available to us (including your appeal), we regret to inform you that we are unable to supply the proof you are seeking. Our cheat detection system is highly complex and confidential. As such we are not at liberty to disclose those detection methods. We are very confident in their accuracy, and the penalty imposed upon your account will stand. We are confident in the decision to terminate the account. Please keep in mind that WildStar is a global game with standards of behavior that must be upheld. You are welcome to submit additional questions, however, we do not want to give you the impression that anything you say or do will reverse or alter the decision to close your account. What is this ridiculousness? I do not understand how a company can be so wrong in their decision. Did they actually perform ANY form of investigation? My dad is 53 and played WoW for over 7 years. Not once in the whole time he played WoW did he experience this type of treatment. He doesn't know how to cheat in games. I help him with everything computer related and even I don't know how to do it because I have never bothered to learn. My dad even needed my help to add 2-Step verification to his account after they banned him. I just don't understand how this can happen. What the hell did he do to deserve this kind of treatment? I am so frustrated. Can anyone think of a way in which these innocent people can have their accounts restored and be compensated for the ordeal they have been put through? My dads support ticket number is #678446
