Hi,

Yesterday, On Jesus Server, we see 3 players playing as "Rimanijo" at the same time (I sure none of them was the real one) and a other smurf playing as TAW Slimer (A fake one). Jesus Server Admin Blue Wolf see this and other thinks.

 

A form to see this fake people is activating PB on TAW ETQW servers (net_serverPunkbusterEnabled = 1), this will enable Alias tracking commands "pb_plist" and "pb_alist" for see the real account name (not only the TAG+Account).

 

Other form is creating a standar rights group for TAW member, so we can see if a player its smurfing as TAW one on TAW Servers.

Why default TAW members cannot have rights  (Like ingame vote as example) ?

 

Thanks

MAV (Maverick)

Well, actually that seems like faking or trolling instead of smurfing. Smurfing is making a new account to play with low ranked players on ranked matchmaking systems; that is an exploit to take advantage of inexperienced players for self enjoyment. What you detected is most likely using clan name system to fool themselves. Eg; Your clan tag is TAW|, your nickname is MAV; so you appear as TAW|MAV in the game. If I create a clan named TAW|M and create an online account as AV, I also appear as TAW|MAV; simple.

 

Yes, such option might be added if possible. Anyone?

You should bring this up with your chain of command.

Hey Mav my friend, good to hear from you again. As mentioned, you should probably bring this up to your CoC in private, probably Flydog.
