Gohan applied to re-join VU.
April 11, 2016
Gohan contacted some VUs privately and disclosed about ON using hacks. Despite that, he was denied.
May 09, 2016
Gohan was accepted in VU, after re-applying.
He posted all his findings(proof, evidence) of ON using hacks on our private boards.
May 28, 2016
Me, Shawn and Wilson decided to gather better proof to catch the cheaters.
A script is introduced in EAD server which informs Managers+ whenever the F1 or the U key is pressed in the server. The scripts make sure that the person is not typing in the chatbox, because that would produce a lot of false alerts for the 'U' key.
This detection method is not very reliable. Because, maybe the F1 key is being used for some other purpose(Fraps record key, Teamspeak PTT, Mute, some keybind or whatever). The 'U' key itself would alert if being pressed in Steam chat layout while playing. But it is something, that might be useful. Maybe someone pressed it by error(a nab reaching for Esc)
We believed that this needs to be kept a secret, since players could modify the F1 source and rebind it to some other key to render our efforts useless. So, only me, Wilson, Shawn, hotdogcat and Stormeus are aware until then.
May 28, 2016
[ON]Stealth^ is the first F1 suspect, caught minutes after the script was introduced. He pretty much used F1 right before storming inside the a base and pressed it again(toggle off) after killing someone.
The second suspect was TRC.Pettan. He was cornered 2v1 by enemies. He toggled F1 and ran into cover. After reaching a safe spot, he pressed it again.
The next suspect we caught was Karan.exe. He used F1 before getting in almost every fight. We lost track of how many times he used F1(too many to count). Since he was also far more active than most of other suspects, he has been caught multiple times.
Then, Gohan himself was a suspect and he spammed the U key several times. The ghost city is a serious advantage in A/D, so this is something to be discussed later.
May 29, 2016
More suspects: UF Chernobyl, RK Blitz, and ON Kxz. I don't remember their exact situation and number of times they pressed the key. But their names showed up.
June 10, 2016
I implement the keypress scripts in an Indian server hosted by me. The only suspects I caught there was ImKiki and Karan several times.
June 01, 2016
I realized that this method required Me, Wilson, Shawn, hotdogcat to be present ingame to watch the logs. So, I modified the scripts to write a log file when a player quits the server. It mentioned how many times the player has used the F1/U key while he was ingame. Wilson or Shawn will be posting the logs for everyone to see.
June 02, 2016
I contacted Human, Aaron, Dronz(inactive) to implement the same script in EC. Human replied that he will, but I never tried contacting him later, so I dunno. I urged him to keep it a secret from the rest of the staff, he promised that he will.
June 07, 2016
[OFF]Tom suggests EC to put a dark image on the screen whenever a player presses F1. Human implements that script. If anyone can contact Human to see if he collected any evidence during June 2, to June 7 please ask him to post here.
June 26, 2016
We kept collecting logs, but most of them are small fish suspects. The EAD server is a casual game mode. People dont play there with serious competitive mood to use cheats. So we figured, more cheaters will be caught later(In EAD League, clan wars ot Vice War). So, we kept it a secret.
I implement the same script in Argonath RPG.
Since I only have direct access to Argonath. I'll post the logs for Argonath.
