    I have the right to log off whenever I want. It is a video game, and I won't be banned for not wanting to play anymore.

    (If anyone thinks I am hacking at anytime I will record without logging off any screen you want.)

    This is much easier than a video, and don't post here unless you can actually identify some real flaws in this suggestion.

    If you aren't a suspected hacker then you won't have to worry about being banned after logging out. :)

    I asked for a forum pm, but still got what I wanted. Those are tree cases of you hacking, and in the last one you said that you'd never used a hack client in your life, when there's been 2 OTHER ban appeals for the same thing. Not being rude (purposefully) but... that makes me raise an eyebrow.

    And I seriously feel like I'm being mini-modded, can I ask to not be mini-modded, please?

    The amount of people who PM me 'hacker' or 'nice hacks' after I kill them is absurd. You would be quite surprised.

    There has been 1... Which was then locked by the user who posted it because he realized that it showed absolutely no hacking... because, well, I don't hack.

    Ok. I need you to use your reading comprehension skills now. I previously sent the two warnings to navy seal not you. Next, I stated "I don't hack" I never stated anything else. Finally, THIS SUGGESTION IS NOT ABOUT ME, IT'S ABOUT THE WELFARE OF ECC!

    What if you were afk when this happened?
    You can also change the command key to a different key, so this wouldn't do anything. What if the hacker changed the "." key to lets say "&"? as nicit said, just collect evidence.

    First off, the command key can't be changed. I did some extensive research so I know this. Also, people with hacked clients don't use the "." To turn on their hacks. They use keybinds or manually turn it on with their mouse. Because of this, this identification method is even better, because people that haven't read this suggestion don't expect it. Next, reading comprehension again, THE MOD WILL ONLY PM YOU THE MESSAGE AFTER YOU ARE CURRENTLY ENGAGED IN A CONVERSATION WITH THEM! Also, you won't have to even worry about being afk if you aren't a suspected hacker...

    I can see this having so many complaints if implemented... "I was AFK!" "I had you ignored and I didn't see your pm." "Yes, I logged out, so what?"

    It's not substantial proof that they are hacking. Seriously, just get a video. It's not as hard as you think.

    You say suspected hacker, but say you ARE a suspected hacker, get pm'ed, and no response coming out from them? And they're banned. And they have to appeal. and then if a mod feels like getting around to your appeal, then you get unbanned. In all reality, if a person's on here to hack, they're going to find a way, despite any counter measures put into place.

    *facedesk* Alright bud, go back and use your reading comprehension skills, and actually read what I wrote, and specifically read the text that I enlarged when I previously replied to you.

    Actually, this method is foolproof. There is no way to get around this method unless you remove your hacks. It is that simple. Also, it is clear that someone is a hacker if they log off directly after they receive the pm. No if's, and's, or but's. Why would a user ignore a mod? This another clear indication that the user has hacks. Finally, as I stated 50 times before, you won't receive this pm from a mod unless, you are engaged in a conversation with them, AND you are a suspected hacker. Again, mods won't send this pm until they are talking to you, and you are answering, and not afk.

    Its just a suggestion arguing against those who can not do anything to change it will not convince anyone. Especially in an aggressive manner.

    Well it's just a tad annoying when people start spamming irrelevant, and unintelligent comments on your suggestion...
