Hey, quick shout out to bob marley last night, fast and efficient work last night along with the other admins! Especially like the new ruleset you guys have put in place, namely punishing those who join a squad to grab a special kit and leave.

Good work guys, keep it up!

[disnoxxio]

Good to hear that! Thanks for the feedback.

Does the server gives away wallhacks? it sure does looks like!

What? Elaborate!

So you're blaming us for PR not having an anti-cheat?

Feel free to report any suspicious activity there with proof. If you see hackers we can't accept oppinions and statments, we need evidence.

But that's the thing, how can you prove someone is hacking? all ive got is that i was behind a wooden barn with no windows (mind you, nobody saw me go in, nobody saw me there) and suddenly a static .50 cal shoots RIGHT in my side of the barn (again, no way they could see me from the direction it was shooting at me at) killing me. But again, i dont know how to actually prove a hacker, so its not like the story is any use.

You make it sound like admins have the power to spectate players on demand or have the ability to find wallhackers at an instance. Unless there is the following: numerous reports about some player who is suspected to be hacking, someone who has the time and effort to watch BR, a questionable KDR that may not make sense, then there is virtually no way to detect a hacker as an admin in that game. Obviously you're free to look up the battle recorder and try to figure out where you were killed from and pin point it to a player who might be cheating then bring it up to the admins in a report. It's unprofessional and silly to come on a server feedback thread claiming that a server promotes hacking without putting the effort to find the cheater yourself... even mentioning the map and time this took place would help. Be a community member and help admins track down these cheaters instead of throwing these atrocious claims, as you're not helping the situation any better.

I am not affiliated with PRTA's admins, this is coming from a regular/forum lurker.

Viirus is a dude who usually finds hackers, shoot him a PM.

This server is really quick to "Ban" "kick" against new players and those who simply due to the fact they didn't "know any better" may have made a mistake or accidently teamkilled but when it comes to the same veteran players breaking some of the same rules and intentionally at that...they don't take action...at least not in my experiance.

For example:
On 4/11/2015 i was flying trans most of the round with three other guys and a player named hollywood, and his squad jumped in my trans heli and wanted me to go to oil fields but i refused too because the area was too hot(and it was nearing the end of the game, tickets were down) and we had already lost three heli's by two others pilots so we decided to wait(pilots heli pilots decision) and so hollywood shot me out of the heli with the intention of stealing the asset(he was not in a trans squad)to get himself and his squad to the oil fields anyways...my squad mate(also in trans) managed to slip in the heli in time so hollywood couldn't steal it. I then reported hollywood to all admins on at the time(as well as Valor my squad mate did) and nobody did anything to him. TeamKilling no matter what the reason, breaks the server rules and two wrongs certainly don't make a right(even if my decision to wait was a poor one) so i don't see why nothing was done...no admin even replied back to me.


In addition HollyWood told me before he decided to tk me, that if i didn't fly him to where he wanted to go(even though the area was too hott) he would have himself and his squad report me for intentionally tk'ing(even though i didn't tk anyone) as to blackmail me into taking him where he wanted to go. I've never in my time seen behavior like this on PR and from a likely well known person at that. I hope the PRTA admins read this and take the necessary actions.

[Code11b]

was there any admin in the server? did you checked with "!admins"?

Yeah there was at least three admins on the server, maybe four. No, i don't remember there individual exact names as at the time i didn't think it was important to remember. Yes, i used !admins to look. Yes, i used !r to report the issue and i also used team chat to attempt to convey the issue. If that isn't enough i also had my squad mate report hollywood too.

Now this is just opinion based on what i've seen over my duration on PRTA, but i know hollywood is well known and usually on top of the score boards in the server...so i'm sure he's well liked but...that doesn't justify what he did.

Was this on Asad Khal? I'm pretty sure that was me on the 50.cal, and no i wasn't hacking... but feel free to check the demos.

I knew there was a fob in there, with half your team spawning on it, i also knew that 50.cal bullets easily go through those walls. So i just spammed away. Check the battlerecorder footage if you're feeling particularly hard done by.

You were banned the other night right? for holding down the all squads button groaning for like 3 minutes straight..? Great teamwork there mate..

Uh, No. I was not banned the other night for holding down all the squad buttons groaning for like three minutes straight. I don't think i've ever been banned from prta. If i have(which i don't recall) it certainly wouldn't be for that. I don't hold down squad buttons in a uncontrolled fashion to whine. Thanks, YAK. Why don't you make sure you know what you are talking about before making that sort of accusation.

And,

If i had done that, what on earth does that have to do with my original post? Nothing, so your saying if i did something wrong then Hollywood can do something wrong too and it shouldn't matter? I don't relate to that logic...or illogic as it is. If i had done that i must have been drunk, because i don't recall any sort of event and would certainly like to see proof of it. If i did it i'd make the necessary changes so it wouldn't happen again. I right my wrongs if it's possible. This is more than i can say or hollywood at the moment.
Two wrongs don't make a right. I'm human too, i never said i don't make mistakes...but going around intentionally teamkilling people for no good reason isn't one of them.
