Send a message via AIM to squeek.
Hadez was distributing hacks in #ff.pickup

Or trying to.

A while ago, someone named "BossStatus" and "bossstatus2" joined #ff.pickup and PMed this to everyone in the channel:

Quote:
[23:52] <BossStatus> Ever wanted to try fortress-forever but don't have time to learn the game? http://www.filedropper.com/***nottherealurl***
[23:52] <BossStatus> a simple way to success
Then, Stiffy showed me this:



And then I checked my logs to see if the date/time matched up. And it did:

Code:
Session Start: Fri Jun 12 23:52:02 2009
Session Ident: BossStatus
[23:52] Session Ident: BossStatus (GameSurge, squeek) (~BossStatu@BossStatus.user.gamesurge)
[23:52] <BossStatus> Ever wanted to try fortress-forever but don't have time to learn the game? http://www.filedropper.com/***nottherealurl***
[23:52] <BossStatus> a simple way to success
01[23:52] <12squeek> OH REALLY?
01[23:52] <12squeek> I AM INTRIGUED
Session Time: Sat Jun 13 00:00:00 2009
Session Close: Sat Jun 13 13:01:34 2009
With timezone differences:

Hadez PM'ed Stiffy on Steam at 2:36am EST June 13th
BossStatus pmed everyone in #ff.pickup at 2:52am EST June 13th


Great job Hadez. Really worth it.

His Steam ID: STEAM_0:0:520114

I'd like to point out that there's no proof of him USING the hack.. just distributing it.

But yeah, I still don't get why HedeZ?

Anyone got that link? I can't be arsed learning the game.

Well done hadez, your plan was almost flawless, unfortunately you were up against squeek, who is as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University, but has moved on, and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning.

Doesn't prove shit. Anyone can go out there and frame a player. Why someone would, I don't know, but this doesn't prove anything. Match concrete evidence such as an ip or you have no case.

Hadez is clean as it stands.

edit:
So yea, lets go ahead and ban a player from the pickup channel with possibly one of the worst submitted evidence yet. At least to me, this is how it works to get someone banned..

Get on steam, change your nickname, pm a friend, talk about cheats, get on IRC with a masked ip, distribute some hacks, match the time zones and date, take a screenshot and there you go, win.

So, watch out guys! You might be the next one banned

I think instead of banning him with this kind of ridiculous evidence, you should be banning those using the cheat. Get something else besides a shitty steam chat screenshot, get him to admit it or match concrete evidence. There's really not much you can do to prove anything in this scenario.

Hadez will continue playing in leagues and whatnot if he decides to.

If I'm not mistaken, its a wireframe cheat. Those who tried it or still use it can correct me on that since I'm not exactly sure. Pretty sure it works for any source mod, it's not exactly a FF hack.

The evidence itself does not prove anything.

What motive does Hadez have to "destroy" the community?

What motive would Stiffy have to frame Hadez?

Can anyone prove that he didn't use the hack? It's one word against the other. It's like saying the guy who sells crack hasn't actually used it, but he is just as guilty for creating other users/addicts. The real question will be if admins really want this kind of trash floating around a small community as it is? If you're honestly trying to build a community, then having it infested with hackers and or accused distributors of said hacks can't be the foundation you build on. Good luck admins, the choice is yours.

The onus is on the people accusing him of hacking to prove it.

Yes.

And lets say in theory he did give this hack out, so now this puts you in the spot of saying , "Oh this is perfectly fine."

I'm sure Gamesurge(I wish this was rizon, I'd sign on and have the IP in a PM in seconds) wouldn't have a problem to get you the IP and either would valve. May take a while, but it would show who is lying and who is not.

So the general consensus would be that it's "OK" for this kind of garbage to float around the community? I suppose Hadez won't have to destroy FF himself if people won't grow a pair and ban shit like this. Use or not, the intent and probable cause is there. Why make excuses for people like this?
